Miao Mountain is silent.
The sunset is like blood, slowly sinking from the mountains, dyeing the boundless forest with a magnificent gold, and decorating the splendid autumn mood in the mountains.
In a deep valley in the south of the mountain range, there was not even a trace of sunlight, and seven thick black smoke evaporated from the valley floor, hovering over the valley, as if seven demonic ink lotus flowers bloomed in the blue sky.
This is one of the legendary seven forbidden places of martial arts, Tianfeng Valley.
The blue color of the mountains comes to an abrupt end, each rock shows a strong black color, which is also dyed with a golden light, looking from afar, the day and night seem to be chaotic here, a magnificent night sky is spread out in the depths of the green mountains, lined with the brilliant sunshine around, it looks very strange.
Legend has it that this valley is located at the junction of heaven and earth, yin and yang, Zhong Lingyu is beautiful, and there are thousands of strange flowers and plants. This was originally a resort for the Miao people to collect medicine and collect Gu, however, decades ago, this valley was suddenly occupied by countless Golden Silkworm Gu.
The Golden Silkworm Gu is the number one poison on "Gu Nerve", if it can be served, it can dominate one side, and it is an extremely rare treasure in the martial arts. Thousands of golden silkworm Gu actually appeared at the same time, covering every inch of land in the Heavenly Wind Valley, becoming an unheard of spectacle in the martial arts.
However, no one dared to covet the golden silkworm in the valley.
Those seven clouds of smoke are more poisonous obstacles than the peach blossom miasma, and the immediate death of the middle is enough to leave the bones of the violator. Even a master who is proficient in the art of Gu poison can't block the combined attack of any ten golden silkworm Gus, not to mention that there are more than ten million golden silkworms in the valley!
As a result, there was a disrespectful legend secretly circulating among the Miao Gu Masters - even if the Gu God personally descended to earth, he would not be able to set foot in Tianfeng Valley.
The only exception is the annual Mid-Autumn Festival.
On this day, the black barriers at the bottom of the valley will spread out slightly, and the golden silkworms full of valleys will also make way for a path to lead from the mouth of the valley to the bottom of the valley. This most mysterious forbidden place seems to have been pardoned by the gods and demons, and the net is open, silently waiting for the bold visitor.
However, at this time, people stay further away. It's just because they know that the Heavenly Wind Valley on this day is far more terrifying than usual.
In addition to tens of millions of golden silkworms, there are also seven ancient beasts inhabiting the valley.
Seven Zen Gu.
These strange beasts slept in the cave of gods and demons at the bottom of the valley. Every seven years on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the cave of gods and demons is opened, and they will wake up. If someone breaks through the Heavenly Wind Valley and sets foot in the Cave of Gods and Demons, it will cause the wrath of the divine beasts, not only will the bones of the invaders be gone, but it will also bring great disasters to the entire Miao Territory.
No one doubts the authenticity of this legend, seven years ago on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Miao people in the nearby eighteen mountains all heard a beast roar, the roar shook the earth, and the mountains shook. After that, droughts, locust plagues, fires, and ...... came one after another, tormenting the Eighteen Miao Village for a whole year.
From then on, no one dared to violate the wrath of the gods and demons.
Gina is an exception.
She didn't go to Tianfeng Valley to collect medicine or find Gu, but just because she wanted to take another look at this divine beast that inhabited the deep valley.
One late night, she was awakened by the roar of the beast, and several brothers were so frightened that they cried, but she opened the window curiously and looked around to see if the legendary beast had three heads and six arms.
Then, she saw a scene that she will never forget.
At that time, the sky was a magnificent purple, and the glass was clear and transparent, without a single blemish. A dazzling halo of light suspended in the sky like a bright moon, but it was so dazzling.
She didn't see the hideous and terrifying beast, but saw a pair of eyes that were slowly dissipating from the halo.
Those eyes are so dazzling that even if you look at them casually, you will never forget them. But it was invisible, as if it were just a chance encounter between light and wind.
However, all the beauty, majesty, and wisdom between heaven and earth are gathered and precipitated here. What these eyes encompass is the infinite vastness of the sky, the earth that nourishes all things, and the reincarnation of all living beings.
These are the eyes that only gods and Buddhas have.
It is not only the most wordless beauty in heaven and earth, but also the eternal **, light and dream in people's hearts.
Gina tried to keep her eyes open to see it more clearly, but the halo was silently shattering, scattering, and turning into trillions of dust. What she saw was only a glimpse of the frightening moment before the eyes disappeared, but it felt so familiar, as if in an unknowable previous life, she had been quietly staring at it for a thousand years.
Perhaps, in her previous life, she was a bird, silently waiting by its side, singing for it, crying for it, and missing it.
Thousands of years of lovesickness have not yet returned, and in this life, her young heart has been bewitched by it again.
Gina crouched on the lattice until the east turned white. She secretly vowed in her heart that no matter where she went, no matter where she was, she would see it again.
She was eight years old.
Seven years later, Gina grew into a little girl who was not afraid of heaven and earth, and visited various legendary ghost mountains and demon lands in Miao Mountain, but never found the shadow of these eyes. As a result, her yearning for the Cave of Gods and Demons became stronger and stronger, and she finally waited for the opportunity for the Cave of Gods and Demons to reopen, how could she let it go?
On the fifteenth day of August, Gina went out early, and before the sun had set, Gina sat on the cliff, ate dry food, packed the package again, and went down to the valley along the ancient vine.
In today's Tianfeng Valley, the black barrier has receded, and the scenery is much clearer. There are no flowers and trees growing in the valley, only a very thick vine that hovers in a tangled circle on the dark rock wall. It is like the legendary ancient giant, waving a giant pen like a rafter, writing strange words on the stone wall. A little bit of golden light shines through the gaps in these words, and it looks particularly dazzling in the light of the setting sun.
Gina knew that these golden rays should be the legendary Golden Silkworm Gu.
When she looked closely, she saw that the golden light was not embedded in the rock wall, but hovering in the air. Each golden light is shrouded in an extremely thin mist, like a blister, which will burst as long as it is touched lightly, and the golden silkworm in it will break out of its shell, regain its hideous posture, and bite and crush the invader.
Gina didn't dare to slack off, carefully bypassed the rock wall, and walked in the direction of the cave of gods and demons, and just after taking two steps, she tripped on a stone and fell heavily.
Gina got up from the fallen leaves and was about to kick the stone twice to vent her anger, but found that the stone made a ** sound and slowly moved!
Even Gina, who was bold, couldn't help but scream in shock. If you look closely, it's not a stone under your feet, but a person!
The man was covered from head to toe by a black cloak, and he couldn't see his face clearly. He struggled, as if trying to get up, but he couldn't do it, so he sat down leaning against the rock, and two cold rays of light peeked out from under his cloak and stared at Gina fiercely.
Gina also looked at him in a daze for a moment, then suddenly pointed to his knee and said, "Are you injured?" Two or three inches long feathered arrows peeked out of the man's knees, and the green feathers at the end of the arrows were stained red with blood.
The man's gaze was even colder, but he didn't answer.
Gina was a scheming child, and although she vaguely felt his hostility, she could not bear to see death without help, so she hurried over and took out a handkerchief to help the man bandage his wounds.
The man had lost so much blood that he could no longer resist, so he had to let her fiddle with it. His gaze had been staring coldly at Gina's movements, if this little girl didn't really heal him, then even if he couldn't get up, there were at least seven ways to kill her instantly.
Gina had no idea what he was thinking, and carefully bandaged the man's wounds.
The man's gaze softened a little, and he said to Gina, "Take out the red bottle on my chest and feed me." Although his voice was a little hoarse, he still couldn't hide his charm.
Gina couldn't help but be completely stunned: "It's a sister?" β
The man's voice suddenly sharpened: "Quick! β
Gina was startled, and scrambled into her arms. I didn't expect that there were so many kinds of bottles hidden on her body, and she was distinguishing them one by one, but accidentally touched her wound, and the man snorted, and was about to get angry, and endured it again.
Finally, Gina found the pill and fed her to take it, but seeing that she had lost too much blood, she untied the water bag she was carrying and handed it over.
The man did not drink, but sat with his eyes closed. After a while, it seemed that the effect of the medicine had taken effect, and the man gradually eased up, and said to Gina, "Little girl, why are you here?" β
Gina was afraid that telling the legend of the Cave of Gods and Demons would frighten her, so she made up a lie: "I helped Grandma collect medicine, and I accidentally got lost and got here." β
The man looked at her suspiciously, but did not ask any more.
After a while, the man said, "Little girl, do you know who I am?" β
Gina's eyes widened and she shook her head.
The man said slowly: "I am the master of the Hundred Gu Sect, Lan Caiyi. β
Gina nodded, but was dazed.
Seeing that Gina hadn't heard her name, Lan Caiyi sighed a little disappointed: "I was in a coma here because I was chased and killed by bad people." β
Gina nodded blankly again.
Lan Caiyi said: "I was going to go to the Gods and Demons Cave to get the Seven Zen Gu, but I didn't expect to be ambushed by the enemy here......"
Gina's big eyes flickered and said, "Seven Zen Gu? What's that? β
She couldn't help but think of the pair of eyes she saw seven years ago, could it be that the owner of these eyes was actually called the Seven Zen Gu?
The man was a little impatient: "You carry me to the Cave of Gods and Demons, and I'll tell you again." β
She seemed to be accustomed to being arrogant, and spoke in a commanding tone. Gina didn't think it was offended, agreed, picked up the blue coat and left.
Lan Caiyi's eyes flickered, and he calculated in his heart that as soon as he arrived at the Cave of Gods and Demons, he would kill people and destroy his mouth.
Gina was carrying a blue coat on her back, panting as she trekked along the mountain road. Fortunately, although she is young, she is used to climbing high and low in Miaojiang. While she was climbing the mountain, she also looked back from time to time to ask if Lan Caiyi was tired and if the wound was painful. Lan Caiyi looked at her as naΓ―ve, not as if she was a fake, and her defensive heart gradually faded.
Wading through a small river, Lan Caiyi asked Gina to rest on the grass, and said slowly: "Seven Zen Gu, the legend is that they are seven ancient divine beasts, after being practiced by aliens, they have earth-shattering supreme power. Once lodged, everything about the host will be changed by the Divine Gu, and from then on, swordsmanship, internal strength, murderous energy, wisdom, and appearance will ...... All of them are at the top. This is the power of the Seven Zen Gus, and it is also the reason why people in the world covet them. β
Gina was dumbfounded when she heard this, she had been in Miao Jiang for a long time, and she also knew a little about Gu art, but she had never heard that Gu art could make such a big change to people.
Lan Caiyi was disdainful of her rarity and strangeness, and continued: "More than ten years ago, scholar Qiu Du unintentionally obtained the Seven Zen Gu, and suddenly went from a scholar who was powerless to become a hero admired by the world. But Qiu Daxia unfortunately died with the Demon Sect elders in the martial arts conference. The Seven Zen Gu were also hit hard, six of them fell into a perennial sleep, only the Gu that had not been injured the least in this life, and woke up every seven years to choose a new master for the Seven Zen Gu. β
She looked at the dots of golden spots on the rock wall, and her face became heavy: "Tianfeng Valley is guarded by thousands of golden silkworm Gu, except for the Mid-Autumn Festival, no one can get close. And the golden silkworms in the Cave of Gods and Demons are thousands of times more than in the valley! β
Gina glanced at Lan Caiyi and said with some concern: "It's so dangerous, my sister is injured again now, but you must be careful......"
There was some bitterness in Lan Caiyi's laughter: "There is nothing careless. I went to the Cave of Gods and Demons to accept the test of the unfinished Gu in this life. If it is approved, I will become the master of the Seven Zen Gu from now on, and the Golden Silkworm Gu will follow me. If not, I'll be torn to pieces by those golden silkworms. β
Gina was shocked: "That...... That sister still doesn't go, or wait for seven years to heal from her injuries......"
Lan Caiyi waved her hand to interrupt Gina's words: "The Golden Silkworm Gu is invincible in the world, whether or not you take care of your injuries will have no effect on the result, not to mention ......" Her voice revealed a little bitterness, "What's more, this is my only chance." β
Gina was stunned: "Why?" β
Lan Caiyi said: "Ten years ago, I practiced Gu Technique and went crazy, searching for strange recipes in many ways, only to barely survive and survive, but now the effect of the drug is getting smaller and smaller, I can't wait for the next seven years!" The mountain wind blew, and she clung to her black cloak, but her shoulders were still trembling slightly, looking like a female beast that had been cornered, painful and helpless.
Gina's eyes sparkled and muttered, "I didn't expect my sister to be so pitiful......" she raised her eyes, "But, is my sister sure of success?" β
Lan Caiyi snorted coldly, seemingly disdainful of Gina's question: "Although the Seven Zen Gu is rare, I am one of the very few people in the world who have the key to the Divine Gu. β
Gina couldn't help but wonder again: "Oh? What is the key to the Seven Zen Gu? β
Lan Caiyi glanced at Gina and said, "It doesn't matter if you tell you, because even if you know, you won't be recognized by the Gu in this life." β
Gina's face turned red and she argued, "I didn't want ......"
Lan Caiyi sneered and pointed to his face shrouded in black veil: "This is the key!" β
Gina's eyes widened, completely unbelievable of what she meant.
Lan Caiyi's eyes lit up: "After the last battle, the other six Gu have fallen into a perennial sleep, so the responsibility of choosing a new master for the Seven Zen Gu can only fall on the Gu who has not finished in this life." The function of the unfinished Gu in this life is to change the appearance of the host, therefore, its criteria for choosing the master is not martial arts, but appearance. β
Looks?
Gina couldn't help but be stunned.
Lan Caiyi set his eyes on the distant sky and repeated proudly: "Legend has it that the unfinished Gu in this life is the gods and demons in the sky, which can make everyone see the imagination of the most beautiful and loving in their hearts. Therefore, only a truly stunning beauty can be recognized by the Gu in this life. β
The most beautiful and the most loved. Gina listened to her words, and her face showed obsession.
She couldn't help but think of those eyes again, could this be the most beautiful and beloved in her heart?
So what kind of beautiful women do they belong to?
A gust of mountain wind blew, waking Gina from her despair, she suddenly remembered something, looked at Lan Caiyi suspiciously, but was speechless.
The appearance of the blue color coat is hidden under the black veil, and it is not real, but I vaguely feel that the complexion is dark, and now the face is full of blood and unkempt, where is there a little bit of the elegance of a peerless beauty?
Lan Caiyi couldn't help but feel on fire when she saw Gina looking at her in a daze.
The blue color clothes of the master of the Baigu Gate were the first beauties of the famous Miao Jiang back then. It's just that in recent years, he has been riddled with illness and has rarely traveled the rivers and lakes, and the power of the Baigu Sect has been weakened day by day, and he has become a third-rate sect in the rivers and lakes, and his momentum has gradually faded. This title of the first beauty was also snatched away by the lady of the lord of Baishui Castle, and Lan Caiyi hated it deeply, if it weren't for the fact that she was now in the wilderness, it was the time to use people, and she really wanted to slap Gina to death.
Seeing Lan Caiyi's angry face, Gina hurriedly lowered her head, waved her hand and said, "I, I just want to see my sister's appearance clearly......"
Lan Caiyi snorted coldly: "You really want to see it?" β
Gina thought timidly for a moment, but nodded.
Lan Caiyi slowly removed the black veil from his face.
Gina let out an "ah" and sat down on the grass. Her expression at the moment didn't seem to see a stunning beauty at all, but she saw a ghost in broad daylight.
The face in front of him is really not much different from a ghost.
The rough dark skin was covered with white spots the size of copper coins, and the white spots were dotted with countless scabies like broad beans, several of which had also broken and festered. The mouth and eyes are bruised and crooked, and the nose is high and swollen, as if he has just been beaten up, and it looks miserable.
Lan Caiyi snorted coldly, covered the black veil, and said, "You must think it's strange, why am I like this." β
Gina was so shocked that she couldn't speak, so she had to nod desperately.
Lan Caiyi said: "Seven years ago, I went to the Cave of Gods and Demons once. At that time, the secret of the Cave of Gods and Demons had just been spread to the rivers and lakes, and there were more than 200 people who did not do their best to take Gu. It's just a pity that no one came back alive except me. β
Gina looked at Lan Caiyi and wanted to say, "Then you weren't bitten like this by the golden silkworm, right?" But he finally didn't dare to say it.
Fortunately, Lan Caiyi didn't look at her, but looked into the distance, and seemed to fall into memory: "I was able to survive, thanks to seeing the scene of Qin Menglou being bitten to pieces by the golden silkworm." β
Gina was stunned: "Who is Qin Menglou?" β
Lan Caiyi replied, "Lady of the Lord of White Water Castle." After practicing Gu and cultivating behind closed doors, she became the first beauty in Miao Jiang. There were not a thousand people who were infatuated with her back then, but also eight hundred. In order to get her, the lord of Baishui Fort didn't know how many people he killed, how much financial resources he spent, and how much scheming he spent. On the day of marriage, the dowry is the pearl of Sanhu Nanyue, which is really a luxury that has never been seen in ancient and modern times. All of a sudden, all the women in the world were envious, lamenting the injustice of God, and did not let such a good thing fall on their heads. She sneered lightly, "But who knows, the Lord of White Water Castle is originally a person with broken sleeves, and he has no interest in women." He tried his best to marry Qin Menglou, and he was obedient to her, just to trick her into taking Gu for himself! β
Gina didn't seem to understand: "But why did she die?" β
Lan Caiyi shook her head, "Just because she's beautiful isn't enough. There was a bit of loss in her voice, "I took a closer look at her face before she went into the hole. Although the conceit is not necessarily weaker than her, it is at most between the two. She didn't get the recognition of the Gu in this life, and I may not be able to back then. Therefore, that year, I did not rush in. Instead, he quietly fled through the mouth of the cave. β
She let out a long sigh: "For seven years, that scene has reappeared in my mind all the time, the sky is full of beasts, the golden silkworm flapping its wings is deafening, the blood rain is falling, people are panicking and fleeing, in this terrifying purgatory-like scene, I see a shadow, a beautiful shadow. β
"That's the phantom of the Gu that has not been lost in this life." Her voice was as mournful as the mountain wind, "It is a beauty that mortals cannot imagine, as long as you look at it, you will not hesitate to break your bones, but also indulge in its arms." If in the past, I took the Seven Zen Gu to heal my injuries, then since I saw it, I would rather use all my life to pray for it to give me a day of beauty. β
She paused and repeated heavily, "It's as beautiful as it is." β
Gina couldn't help but think that if the Gu illusion in this life was the most beautiful and beloved in everyone's heart, then the phantom she saw should be different from the one in blue clothes. But that obsessive state of mind is the same attachment - the attachment that would rather die than look at it again.
Lan Caiyi's voice gradually became a little bitter: "After that, it took me a year to practice the Instant Fanghua Gu that had long been extinct. β
Gina was surprised: "Instant Fanghua Gu? What is this again? β
Lan Caiyi said: "The function of the Instant Fanghua Gu is also to change the appearance of the host, but unlike the Gu in this life, it is the beauty of the host all year round, and it only allows it to bloom at a certain moment. In other words, it will make the person who practices Gu extremely ugly on weekdays, and only at a certain moment, release all the beauty. The uglier and longer it becomes, the more beautiful the moment becomes. β
Her hand brushed over her face, and there seemed to be infinite affection in her movements, and her voice trembled slightly: "For the beauty of an hour, I have endured seven years of ugliness. For seven years, I have been wearing a black veil and carrying this unsightly face day and night, just to face the moment of the Seven Zen Gu tonight! β
Her voice was a little choked, and her chest heaved as if she was in endless pain. It can be imagined how she has lived in the past seven years.
Gina gradually felt that she was very pitiful, so she had to say, "It's not early, let's hurry on the road." β
Lan Caiyi took a deep breath, gradually calmed down, and let Gina carry herself on her back and walk towards the Cave of Gods and Demons.
The sunset gradually faded, and a bright moon climbed into the sky.
On the cliff, the sleeping golden silkworm emitted a colorful halo, like a water droplet hovering in the air, reflecting the entire Tianfeng Valley very beautiful, but also very weird.
Under the light of the Mid-Autumn Festival moon, the cave of gods and demons is like a giant beast, quietly lying at the end of the valley, and the two stalagmites at the entrance of the cave are towering high, straight into the sky, like sharp teeth in the mouth of a giant beast. There was not a single light in the cave, as if it had opened a wide mouth, patiently waiting for its prey to step into its territory.
Gina was surprised to find that there was already a person at the entrance of the cave.
The man was lying on his side on a bluestone at the entrance of the cave, snoring, his clothes were ragged, and he emitted a foul smell, clearly an old beggar who was about to die.
The old beggar's hair was already completely white, but it was covered with a thick layer of sludge, which looked gray and mottled, and indescribably dirty. His face is crisscrossed with wrinkles, and he looks more than a hundred years old. What's even more terrifying is that his eyes have long been gouged out, leaving only two deep black holes, which makes this old, ugly face even more vicious.
Gina glanced at him, and suddenly remembered that when Ah Panpo in Zhaidong died, her face was also so gray, and she couldn't help but be a little scared in her heart, and hid behind Lan Caiyi timidly.
Lan Caiyi helped Gina, her eyes fixed on the beggar, as if trying to understand his origin.
She has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and of course she knows the truth that you can't judge people. However, when she cautiously poked out her inner breath, she received no responseβthe old beggar seemed to have no martial arts at all.
Lan Caiyi was shocked, the Cave of Gods and Demons was located in the depths of Tianfeng Valley, if he was an old beggar who didn't know martial arts and was dying, how could he possibly find this forbidden place of martial arts that everyone feared?
Could it be that this person is actually a supreme master, and he has been able to practice the inner breath to the point of being invisible and traceless?
Surprised, the old beggar slowly sat up from the boulder, stretched his waist, seemed to be listening to something, and hissed, "Is anyone here at last?" β
Lan Caiyi frowned and said, "Who are you?" How did you end up here? β
"How did I end up here?" The old beggar coughed a few times, shook his head, and said, "Girl, I should ask you this sentence." I've lived here for fourteen years. β
Lan Caiyi's face became even more solemn: "You live here? β
The old beggar stretched out his hand, slapped his waist, which was already unable to stand upright, and sighed, "I'm here to guard the Seven Zen Gu." β
As soon as he heard the three words of Seven Zen Gu, Lan Caiyi's face changed sharply, and he quietly took it into his arms with one hand.
The old beggar seemed to see through her thoughts, and a smile wrinkled on his face: "I remember, your name is Lan Caiyi, and you came seven years ago. β
Lan Caiyi's hand suddenly stopped, and he said in amazement: "Seven years ago, I didn't see you. β
The old beggar laughed, "That's just that I don't want you to see it." He shook his head again, "Girl, if you are blue, you don't have to go in, lest you give your life in vain." β
Lan Caiyi's brows furrowed, and he said angrily: "Why? β
The old beggar said leisurely: "Because you, like Qin Menglou, are not qualified enough to be recognized by Gu in this life." β
Lan Caiyi was stunned, and snorted coldly: "Why do you say I can't?" You are old and blind, can you still distinguish between beauty and ugliness? β
The old beggar shook his head and said, "Although I am blind in my eyes, I am not blind in my heart." I have been guarding the Seven Zen Gu here for many years, and I have only gained one benefit, that is, I can understand the Gu language. β
Lan Caiyi sneered even more: "Gu language? So what does it say? β
The old beggar smiled, pointed to the cave and said, "In this life, you had better not go in." He paused, and then said, "Seven years ago, I also persuaded Qin Menglou like this, but unfortunately she didn't believe it. β
As if to confirm his words, those golden silkworm Gu hovering on the cliff wall suddenly flickered, emitting a dazzling colored light, illuminating the valley for a while, and then slowly dimmed.
Lan Caiyi's eyes were fixed on the old beggar, as if she was distinguishing the truth from the falsehood of his words, and gradually, her anger was extinguished with the colored light of the golden silkworm, and she sneered: "Old blind man, you can look away this time, I am no longer Lan Caiyi seven years ago!" β
With a sudden wave of her hand, she lifted the black veil from her face.
Fifteen moonlight shone on her face like flowing water.
Gina was about to cover her eyes, but her hands stopped in mid-air as if they were caught in invisible ropes.
She had never seen such a beautiful woman in her life.
The originally ugly face had become delicate and warm at some point, as if it was carved from a whole piece of beautiful jade, without the slightest flaw. And every line on the face is so delicate and complete, as if it has been carefully carved by a divine craftsman, and it is so beautiful that it does not look like a real person at all.
Gina couldn't help but secretly marvel in her heart, what kind of Gu technique could create such a perfect face.
Miao Nu is so beautiful, Gina has seen not a lot of beauties, although she herself is young, but she is also delicate and delicate, it can be described as one in a hundred, but no matter what kind of beauty, there will be a little regret, the creation is always so stingy, will not give the real perfect thing to the world.
However, after the almost cruel forging of Fang Hua in an instant, the appearance of the blue color coat truly wiped out all flaws, and the suppressed and distorted beauty of seven years finally erupted at this moment, blooming with a demonic light, almost burning Gina's eyes.
Lan Caiyi seemed to be very satisfied with Gina's surprise, slowly turned to the old beggar, and said proudly: "Now, can the old pavilion master help me ask about the Gu in this life again?" β
The bright moon shone on her beautiful face, and her whole person seemed to exude a compelling brilliance, just like the two of them who were seriously injured just now.
Perhaps because he couldn't see her face, the old beggar's expression didn't change much, and he was just about to speak, but a faint voice came from behind several people: "Miss Lan's appearance at the moment is in line with the judgment of the ancients." β
Everyone turned around in shock, and saw that in the open space behind them, there was an extra soft sedan chair at some point.
The style of the sedan chair is very elegant, the red sandalwood sedan chair body is carved with cranes and cloud algae, it looks very gorgeous, and the sedan curtain of green jade color hangs down slowly, so that the figure of the person in the sedan chair also becomes faint.
Lan Caiyi's heart sank, in the barren mountains and mountains, it is extremely difficult for people to walk, let alone a sedan chair? What's more, when he came behind him, he didn't even notice it!
Lan Caiyi's brows furrowed deeply, the martial arts of the people in the sedan chair were obviously above her, if they were also here for the Seven Zen Gu, they would be a real rival.
The person in the sedan chair paused, as if waiting for the consternation of several people to dissipate, before slowly finishing what he had just said:
"Beauty is beautiful, soulless."
Lan Caiyi's face changed abruptly, and he wanted to attack, but he was afraid that the person's martial arts were good, so he could only suppress his heart and glared angrily.
The sedan curtain fluttered gently in the night breeze, like a night cloud in the air.
But he listened to the man: "In this life, I have not been born with a Gu innate divine object, and what I ask for is definitely not a wood and stone beauty created by the magic of the demon Gu." Only a perfect face coupled with a peerless demeanor can be called truly beautiful, and can also impress the Divine Gu. He seemed to sigh softly, "Miss Lan is not unbeautiful now, but she is narrow-minded, reckless, and unpretentious, but the words of peerless demeanor are absolutely indescribable." β
Lan Caiyi was extremely angry, but laughed out loud: "It's easy to say, you can find a beauty whose appearance is both beautiful and beautiful, and it will open our eyes to all of us." β
The man was silent for a moment, sighed for a long time, and said word for word:
"That's me."
"You?" Lan Caiyi couldn't help but burst out laughing, and bowed down with laughter, "Who are you?" β
"Nangong Yun." His voice was not high, nor did he show off in the slightest, as if he was just talking and laughing with his friends, and casually mentioned his name.
However, Lan Caiyi's laughter came to an abrupt end. She Huo Ran raised her head and said, "Are you Nangong Yun?" She repeated again, "Nangong Yun of the Nangong family? β
Nangong Yun smiled faintly: "It's me." β
Lan Caiyi suddenly closed her mouth, but Gina felt that her body was gradually getting heavier, and she could barely support it.
Jianghu is also a world, there will always be various rankings in private, a hundred years ago, the martial arts alien Bai Xiaosheng lined up the weapon spectrum, famous for a while; Some prodigal sons will also concoct martial arts beauty genealogies from time to time and circulate them privately. Compared with the official eunuchs, the martial arts women are less constrained and more civilized, and naturally imitate the beauty spectrum in their minds.
- Of course, all of these beauties are men.
This special pedigree is called Lantai Pu, named after the name of Song Yuzhi, a beautiful man from Chu Guomei, "Lantai Gongzi". The people in the spectrum also take Song Yu as a model, focusing on appearance and demeanor, and also testing character and martial arts, with a total of more than 20 people on the list.
The pedigree was secretly circulated in the boudoir of the young lady of the martial arts family, and no one knew about it until five years ago, when Tang Xiu'er, the eldest lady of the Tang Sect in Shuzhong, inadvertently lost it and leaked it, which immediately caused an uproar in the rivers and lakes.
The old diehards in the martial arts lamented that the world was declining and the people's hearts were not ancient, but because of the momentum of the Tang Sect, they didn't dare to say more. As a result, this Lantai spectrum has spread more and more widely, and women and children know it. The young heroes on the list are disdainful on the surface, but they are secretly happy in their hearts, and after that, whether they walk the rivers and lakes or marry sects, they are worth ten times as much. Later, this book simply turned from underground to public, everyone copied it, Luoyang paper is expensive, it is really an unprecedented wonder in the martial arts.
On the Lantai spectrum, Nangong Yun, the ninth son of the Nangong family, is the eye of the list.
Under the name of Nangong Yun, there is also a title written by Qingyun, the first talented woman in martial arts: humble gentleman, gentle as jade.
No one doubted that Nangong Yun was the person who was most worthy of this evaluation at that time. Born in a family, literary and elegant, and not weak in his youth, Guiyun Sword has been practiced to the point of first-class in the rivers and lakes, and he is indeed a rare talent in the martial arts.
Although Nangong Yun was born noble, he was gentle and kind, often walking the rivers and lakes, solving problems for people in the martial arts, changing the impression that the Nangong family was high and rejected people, and his reputation rose for a while.
At that time, almost every girl had a dream that she could meet the ninth prince in the deep mountains and valleys, and was helped by him in danger.
There are even some girls who are infatuated with Jiugongzi and secretly form an organization, ready to run away from home and follow the footsteps of Jiugongzi in the rivers and lakes. They even launched a war of words to change the ranking of Lantaipu and push the ninth prince to the first throne.
However, after a long controversy, the ninth prince is still in the top spot.
Because the first is the young hall master of the Demon Sword Hall, Meng Tiancheng.
If the ninth prince often acts chivalrous and walks the rivers and lakes, Meng Tiancheng lives in isolation and is mysterious. The Demon Sword Hall and the Nangong family are old feuds, and they have been fighting endlessly for hundreds of years. Nangong Yun and Meng Tiancheng are one good and one evil, and they are exactly two leaders, so they have naturally become the best topic among the girls.
It's just three years ago that the Nangong family and the Demon Sword Hall fought to the death, the Nangong family suffered heavy losses, several elders were all killed in battle, and the Demon Sword Hall was destroyed and disappeared from then on. Legend has it that Meng Tiancheng also fell off the cliff in the decisive battle, causing the girls to sigh and cry for a while.
Since then, although Lantaipu has not been rewritten, Nangong Yun has become the uncrowned king.
The moon in front of the Gods and Demons Cave was uncertain, and Lan Caiyi only felt secretly bitter in his heart.
Of course, she had heard of Nangong Yun's name. Not to mention whether his appearance is as clear as the legend, just with the Guiyun Sword in his hand, he has no chance of winning.
At this time, Nangong Yun smiled: "Nangong Yun is by no means a bully. Since the blue girl arrived first, if she insisted on going into the cave to see the Gu who had not finished in this life, she would never stop her. β
Lan Caiyi was stunned, as if she didn't expect Nangong Yun to be so generous and let her enter the cave first. It must be known that the Seven Zen Gu will only select one master, if you first approve the blue color clothes, even if Nangong Yun is a fairy person, there is no way.
But then, she read contempt in this generosity.
She looked at the figure in the soft sedan chair and said coldly: "You are so confident, are you sure that I will not succeed?" β
Nangong Yun smiled silently, as if she was acquiescing.
Lan Caiyi held Gina's shoulders and barely stood up straight, the pain of the wound only aroused her courage: "I have been tortured for seven whole years before I waited for this opportunity, and I will not give up no matter what, although the Hundred Gu Sect is not a high-ranking sect, it has never been afraid of others." β
She raised her eyebrows slightly and bit her lip slightly. That little bit of grievance and strength made her wood-like beauty vivid, and it looked particularly moving under the moonlight.
Nangong Yun sighed softly: "Why are you persistent and give up your life in vain?" The night breeze gently blew the curtain of the car, and he had stepped out of the soft car.
Thousands of golden silkworm Gu bodies suddenly emitted dazzling colored light, as if they couldn't help but praise in unison. Countless colored lights condensed into autumn clouds in an instant, gently surrounding him.
But no matter how bright and beautiful these lights are, they can't hide him.
His jade-colored shirt was lightly embroidered with moire. made his whole person seem to be shrouded in a soft halo like beautiful jade, and it looked so lofty and lofty. Lan Caiyi was so focused on seeing his face that she couldn't, and for a moment, she had the illusion that she wasn't even sure if the person in front of her was still alive!
Only that faint smile made his whole person so warm again, as if he could be touched, as if he was originally a man from heaven, but because of this smile, he returned to the world.
Lan Caiyi felt that the enthusiasm in his heart was getting cold a little bit, and finally condensed into ice.
The jade mountain was on the side, and he suddenly felt ashamed of himself. This feeling really hit her, and little by little it invaded her heart into ashes.
She silently compared each other's faces in her heart, and she didn't know what went wrong, only that she knew that she was indeed defeated!
Why, why did the momentary beauty of seven years of pain finally defeat his smile?
Could it be that he really has no relationship with the Seven Zen Gu?
The consternation and disappointment on Lan Caiyi's face gradually turned into bitterness.
Gina was originally taken by Nangong Yun's appearance, and was looking dumbfounded, but she felt Lan Caiyi's hand gradually become cold, and couldn't help but say worriedly: "Sister, what's wrong with you?" β
Her eyes fell on Lan Caiyi's face, but she couldn't help but be shocked. Her face hadn't changed, but her beautiful eyes had a dead gray glow.
Her eyes looked as old as the dying grandmother.
Gina only felt a chill rise from the depths of her heart, as if she had a premonition: "Sister, don't ......"
At this moment, a trace of absolute trick flashed in Lan Caiyi's eyes, and two colored ribbons suddenly shot out of her sleeve, lifting her entire body and flying towards the cave of gods and demons.
"Don't!" Gina exclaimed, and was about to catch her, but was bounced away by a powerful counter-force.
Gina hurriedly got up, but only saw Lan Caiyi's last look.
She threw herself into the Cave of Gods and Demons, not to gain the approval of the Gu in this life. But after all hope is dashed, she can only use destruction to express her last bit of dignity.
She would rather die in front of the Seven Zen Gu at the most beautiful moment than die slowly in the torture of illness and ugliness.
- If I can't get you, then please let me look at you again.
Then, indulge in the death you give, without complaint or regret.
Gina knelt on the cold bluestone in a daze, and the last figure of the blue color dress was like a glimpse, but it was so moving.
Then, a huge beast roar soared into the sky.
The heavens and the earth shook, and the surrounding mountains and rocks rolled down, and Gina could barely stand still.
There was a loud buzzing of her wings, accompanied by Lan Caiyi's long and mournful laughter, but in an instant, her laughter was drowned out in the cracking sound of flesh and bones shattering.
All was silent again.
Gina was shocked and sad, and her eyes immediately turned red. The old beggar behind him shook his head lightly and said, "It's a pity." β
Nangong Yun had that elegant smile on his face again, and he arched his hand to the old beggar and said, "Old Pavilion Master, now it's my turn to take the Gu." β
"You don't have to." A voice sounded in the darkness, the voice was low and beautiful, but with an inexplicable coldness, even the night breeze in the valley couldn't help but shrink in it.
Nangong Yun couldn't help but change color slightly: "Who?" β
"Me." A black figure faded into clear in the moonlight.
"Meng Tiancheng?" Nangong Yun's gentle smile suddenly stiffened a little, "You're not dead yet?" β
The man slowly walked towards the entrance of the cave and said word by word: "Two hundred and eighty lives, I haven't asked your Nangong family to get it back, how can I die?" The night wind sounded like a ghostly howl, and a large cloud of ink seemed to spread a pair of huge wings, and with his footsteps, it slowly pressed down towards the Cave of Gods and Demons.
Nangong Yun shook his head: "Impossible, if you are hit by my Guiyun Sword, it is impossible for you to live for so long." β
Meng Tiancheng sneered: "I just didn't expect that the son of the dignified Nangong family, the young man who everyone admires in the rivers and lakes, would actually poison his sword!" β
Nangong Yun wanted to refute, but was speechless for a while. Watching him approaching step by step, he couldn't help but think of his blood-red magic knife and red eyes in the moonlight, and his heart was cold, he took a deep breath, barely calmed down, and said, "You...... You're also here to take the Seven Zen Gu? β
Meng Tiancheng stopped three feet in front of him, and said with a smile: "Is there anyone more worthy of coming to see the Gu of this life than me?" β
He stood in front of Nangong Yun with a long body, and his black clothes flew in the mountain wind like wings.
At this moment, through the meager moonlight, Gina could see his face clearly.
This face is extremely handsome, shocking, but with a strong evil aura.
If Nangong Yun is as warm and unparalleled as a beautiful jade, then he is a fire of hell, burning with dazzling brilliance in hatred.
This brilliance is evil and demonic, but it is so dazzling, eroding and incinerating the demeanor carefully maintained by Nangong Yun little by little.
The boundless murderous aura emanated from Meng Tiancheng's body, and it was heavily pressed at the entrance of the entire god and demon cave. Nangong Yun was shocked in his heart, in just three years, his martial arts had improved so much.
Meng Tiancheng sneered and took another step forward. Nangong Yun was forced by his momentum and almost retreated. But he didn't, he just held the Guiyun Sword tightly.
He knew that if he took even a small step back at this time, he would be a complete failure. His own dreams, the expectations of his fathers, and the century-old glory of the Nangong family will all be completely wiped out in this retreat.
Therefore, he could only restrain the fear in his chest and try to stand up straight.
Although in Gina's opinion, he was still in the wind, and his demeanor was pure, but the old beggar on the side had let out a long sigh.
At that moment, a dazzling red light pierced the night sky like lightning.
Nangong Yun's Guiyun Sword had just come out of its sheath, but he felt as if his throat was blown by the wind, and he felt a slight chill. Then, he saw Meng Tiancheng's eyes that were red with hatred.
"Your debts must always be repaid."
There was a soft "bang", and the blood splattered out.
Gina screamed, and Nangong Yun's eyes suddenly widened, looking at her opponent in disbelief.
Then, slowly fall down.
Blood was sprinkled like flying flowers and falling leaves, but Meng Tiancheng did not dodge, but in the blood rain, he slowly opened his sleeves and enjoyed the temperature of the enemy's blood.
The warm, salty liquid soaked his long loose hair and wing-like straps. He looked like a prince who had sunk in revenge, and handed over his handsome face, superb martial arts, kindness in his heart, and warmth in his eyes to the demons.
After a long time, he put away the red scimitar in his hand, and didn't look at Gina, who was trembling with fear, and walked straight towards the Cave of Gods and Demons.
"Stop."
Meng Tiancheng frowned - he thought that no one would dare to stop him at this time.
Looking back, he saw that the old beggar was facing him with two black holes on his face, Meng Tiancheng couldn't help but feel disgusted, and said coldly: "What? β
The old beggar shook his head and said, "You can't go in." β
Meng Tiancheng's voice was even colder: "Why? β
The old beggar sighed and said, "For more than ten years, there have been no less than hundreds of people who have come to the Cave of Gods and Demons. You are indeed the best of them all. His face turned cold, and his words changed, "But it's still not enough." β
Inadequate?
Meng Tiancheng's face was as cold as frost, and Senhan's murderous aura flowed through the scimitar in his sleeve. The old beggar seemed to be completely unaware, and waved his hand: "Let's go, the Gu will not recognize you in this life." β
Meng Tiancheng stared at him, his murderous aura gradually gathered, and he turned around and still walked towards the entrance of the cave.
The old beggar sighed: "I kindly stopped you, not because you were closer to the requirements of the unfinished Gu in this life than them, but because they had a last resort to take the Gu, and you were not." You are only entrusted by others, so why are you so persistent? β
Meng Tiancheng couldn't help but stop and look at the old beggar again: "How do you know?" β
The old beggar said, "You don't have to ask me, I'll tell you only one thing." His voice was not high, but it carried an indisputable power, "I have been protecting the Divine Gu for many years, and I have been in touch with them, if you believe me, give up immediately." β
Meng Tiancheng closed his lips tightly and did not answer.
The old beggar said, "Although I can't see it, I can feel the hesitation in your heart." You have unavenged revenge, unrepaid kindness, and unfulfilled feelings, and you really shouldn't take your life. β
Under the moonlight, Meng Tiancheng's figure seemed to tremble slightly, obviously the old beggar's words had touched the weakest line in the depths of his soul.
Meng Tiancheng raised his head slowly, and the moonlight poured on his face: "I just want to know, what kind of master is Gu looking for in this life?" β
Half of his face has been stained with blood, but this not only does not damage his dusty handsomeness, but on the contrary, it contrasts with his innate evil aura, showing a unique charm.
This kind of charm is enough to make any girl's heart move.
He was indeed qualified to ask such a question.
If even he can't get the approval of the Gu in this life, then who else can?
The old beggar smiled: "A year ago, I was also puzzled by this question. Those who dared to come to the Cave of Gods and Demons to take Gu were all beauties who were one in a million, but the Divine Gu was disdainful. After waiting year after year, I couldn't help but get anxious and began to walk around the rivers and lakes, hoping to find a better candidate. It wasn't until a year ago that I saw him. β
The old beggar's voice trembled slightly with excitement: "I decided at a glance that he was the person the Seven Zen Gu was looking for. So I secretly left a letter several times, hoping that he would understand my painstaking efforts and come to the Cave of Gods and Demons...... But he still didn't come. β
Meng Tiancheng said: "Why? β
The old beggar's old face couldn't hide the loss: "Because he doesn't need the Seven Zen Gu anymore." It's really ridiculous, the person who wants the Seven Zen Gu, the Seven Zen Gu doesn't want him. The people who are waiting for the Seven Zen Gu don't need the Seven Zen Gu. β
Meng Tiancheng looked up at Mingyue, and a mocking smile appeared on his face, as if he was laughing at himself and as if he was mocking the matter itself.
The old beggar sighed: "I am also old, I am afraid that I will not be able to wait for the next seven years, is it possible that this natural divine object cannot be used by the world after all, and can only sleep in the deep mountains and rivers?" β
Meng Tiancheng stared and thought for a moment, and said, "Who is that person?" β
The old beggar's face became solemn, and he said word for word: "The new leader of the martial arts alliance, Yang Yizhi." β
Yang Yizhi, these ordinary three words, seemed to have an inexplicable power, and the night wind floated through the Tianfeng Valley.
Meng Tiancheng's eyes opened, but he couldn't say a word anymore.
The look in his eyes was complicated.
Gina has seen this look three times in one day. The first time was when Lan Caiyi heard Nangong Yun's name, and the second time was when Nangong Yun saw Meng Tiancheng.
The third time is now.
Yang Yizhi?
Gina couldn't help but have a strong curiosity about this name, what kind of person can make the Seven Zen Gu value it so much, and make Meng Tiancheng willing to avoid the edge?
Could it be that he is what he is looking for, the owner of those eyes?
Thinking of this, Gina's heart was boiling, and she longed to turn into a bird and come to him immediately.
The old beggar looked at Meng Tiancheng and seemed to reiterate a fact: "The Seven Zen Gu was originally waiting for him. β
Meng Tiancheng pondered for a long time, and behind him, the light of thousands of golden silkworm Gu was uncertain, just like the battle between heaven and man in his heart.
He finally nodded: "These three words are enough for me to explain to the prince." He turned around and walked out of the valley.
Gina cowered and ducked, watching the corners of his clothes fly past her eyes. She wanted to stop him and ask about Yang Yizhi's whereabouts, but she couldn't say a word. This day has changed dramatically, and she has already been shocked and has lost her strength.
Wuyue Palace.
The lanterns flickered, and the bright yellow curtain rose and fell slightly in the night breeze.
King Wu Yue silently listened to Meng Tiancheng's statement and sighed: "You did the right thing. β
Meng Tiancheng's face was slightly ashamed: "It's me who doesn't do things well......"
King Wu Yue waved his hand and said: "Don't blame yourself, before you leave, I repeatedly told you to listen to the judgment of the old beggar at the entrance of the cave." If he says you can't, don't take any chances. King Wu Yue's gaze fell on him, and he said slowly, "In my heart, talent is more important than the Seven Zen Gu. β
Meng Tiancheng lowered his head, his handsome face was covered in the shadow of the cloak, but he couldn't see his expression.
He was silent for a long time before he said, "Who is that old man?" β
King Wu Yue smiled indifferently: "He is the master of the previous Seven Zen Gu. β
Meng Tiancheng frowned: "Qiu Du? β
King Wu Yue nodded: "Exactly, in the battle with the Demon Sect Elder, he was seriously injured, but fortunately with the help of the Three Lives Gu, he did not die." But the woman he loved so much died in his arms. Qiu Du was disheartened and had no intention of setting foot in the rivers and lakes, so he took the Seven Zen Gu from his body. For more than ten years, he lived in seclusion in the valley, not only to find a new host for these seven ancient divine beasts, but also to stay away from the mundane and reminisce about the past. β
Meng Tiancheng nodded.
King Wu Yue smiled bitterly: "I have heard that the Seven Zen Gu is an ominous thing, and every host will not die well, but now it seems that this statement is not groundless." There was a bit of self-deprecation in his smile, "But the soldier is a bad thing, and the saint has to use it as a last resort." Compared to the power brought by the Seven Zen Gu, how can these rumors be afraid? β
Meng Tiancheng said lightly: "The prince's martial arts are enough to look down on the world, so why do you have to borrow the help of evil laws?" β
King Wu Yue looked at him, with a little self-deprecation in his smile, "Look at the world......" He forced his eyes at Meng Tiancheng and said word for word, "How is it better than Yang Yizhi?" How about the grandson of King Bizo? β
Meng Tiancheng was stunned and couldn't answer. These two names were like sharp knives, piercing his heart again.
The same is true of King Wu Yue.
He gradually looked away, and sighed, "What I want is the whole world; What I want to create is something that has never been done before. Therefore, I must have the power to be invincible. He looked at his palm and said, word for word, "What is there is is not enough. β
Meng Tiancheng bowed his head and said, "Yes." β
A smile gradually gathered on King Wu Yue's face, and his voice was also softened: "So, I want you to help me." β
Meng Tiancheng did not answer.
He was plotted by Nangong Yun that day and fell off the cliff, but it was King Wu Yue who rescued him, and used strange magic to help him recover and improve his martial arts, and even let him get his favorite woman as his wife. He was originally an unruly demonic boy, but the disaster of destroying the door in one day has completely changed his life. In order to take revenge, he will not hesitate to dedicate himself to the devil, not to mention that this is just a courtesy given to him by King Wu Yue?
In the past three years, he never mentioned the matter of repaying his kindness, but he had made a promise that no matter how difficult it was, he would complete it for King Wu Yue.
King Wu Yue muttered: "Since the Seven Zen Gu is unobtainable, then I have to try to find the Four Heavenly Orders first." He took out a letter from his sleeve, "A few years ago, the Demon Sect Leader gathered the Four Heavenly Orders, dug out the Tianluo Treasure, and used the power of the secret treasure to slaughter Wudang and destroy Shaolin. After that, the Four Heavenly Orders dispersed again and scattered in all directions. As far as I know, one of them has already reached Fuso. What you have to do is to go to the Land of the Rising Sun and get this Xuantian Order back for me. In this letter, there is everything you need to cross to the east. β
Meng Tiancheng took the letter, but he was a little hesitant.
King Wu Yue smiled: "I know what you want to ask, you must be very puzzled in your heart, since the Tianluo treasure has been taken, what is the point of me collecting the Four Heavenly Orders?" β
Meng Tiancheng was silent.
King Wu Yue said: "I also thought that the role of the Four Heavenly Orders was just the key to unlocking the treasure of Tianluo. It wasn't until a year ago that the Prophet told me that there was an even greater secret hidden in the Four Days. As long as I solve this secret, I will be able to control the power that overthrows the world, and this is what I want most. β
Meng Tiancheng nodded, he didn't want to ask what this secret was, because he trusted King Wu Yue's judgment.
He slowly put away the letter, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Today, a year later, the Xuantian Decree will be dedicated here." β
That's his promise.
