67, Snow Mountain Travel
The three of us, led by the woman in black, entered a simple and unpretentious courtyard, where there were people cleaning fallen leaves and pruning flowers and plants, but they turned a blind eye to the four of us. The four of them quickly walked through the front hall and entered a Buddhist hall, only to see the woman in black quickly run to the back of the Maitreya Buddha in the middle to open a mechanism, and then saw a rolling mechanical sound on the ground, and the woman in black forcefully lifted a heavy stone slab on the ground and a narrow secret passage appeared, she walked in first and motioned for us to follow. There were also subordinates in the back who quickly covered the stone slabs and did everything to cover up.
The four of them had traveled for a long time in the narrow passage, and it was estimated that they had left Fort David for several miles, and I was secretly surprised by the length of this passage, and there were many traces of boulder cutting along the way, and it was obvious that the amount of work was extremely large. After walking for about ten miles, the ventilation of the secret passage is very poor, if it weren't for the fact that several people are masters of the inner family and have excellent physique, I am afraid that they will have to suffocate in the secret passage, and the concealment of this secret passage can also be seen.
At the end of the secret passage is a winding cave, we feel a little cool after coming out, it turns out that we have reached the mountain, this is a rolling snowy mountain, the distance is full of lofty mountains, under the mountain is an endless prairie, vaguely you can see the outline of the city of David, I can't imagine that we have walked so far, there is no serious investigation during the day, but I can't think that behind the city of David is the big snow mountain.
I turned my head and saluted: "Thank you for the girl's help, in my aunt Su Murong Fu, I don't know what the girl is called?" ”
"Jiang Fangfei." The woman in black replied, "Childe doesn't have to be polite, I'll help you for ourselves." ”
"You guys?" I thought back to my escape from David City and asked, "You are from the secret tribe, but you are from a different faction from the patriarch Jiang Ya, right?" ”
"Well, that's exactly the case, Jiang Ya has gone against the grain, sacrificed the blood of the living, tested the evil skills on the living, colluded with the demons, cultivated the demons, and killed countless people, which has aroused the opposition of many clansmen. And those who oppose Jiang Ya will die, so many of our clansmen are forced to move to the Great Snow Mountain to avoid being pursued. ”
I nodded and said, "It's no wonder, it's just that after this battle, your identity in David City has been exposed, and I'm afraid you won't be able to go back." ”
"It's okay, it just so happens that the Great Elder wants to see you, come with me."
I secretly praised Jiang Fangfei for acting neatly and neatly, so I motioned to Dalun and Zhiwei to follow, the injuries on the two of them have been preliminarily stopped all the way, so it is better to find a place to stay and retreat as soon as possible.
It's just that the place where the Great Elder lives is more hidden, and we crawled in the Great Snow Mountain for a day and a night, during which we even passed through two cliffs, all of which were crossed by our own internal strength and light skills, which was quite thrilling, and finally came to a small col near the top of the mountain. This is a seemingly ordinary small mountain village, but a few more glances will find a lot of things that are not simple, such as the vertical and horizontal construction of the mountain village is quite innate and easy to count, not only the Tibetan wind and the atmosphere, combined with a few arrow stacks and police posts in the mountains can be a good defense and eliminate the incoming enemy, if the number of attacking enemies is too much, you can also quickly escape from this place through a few faint doors. Both offensive and defensive, Tibetan style, this is a very clever means of construction, I don't know which of our handwriting, I will invite him to my swallow dock to re-plan.
There are not many people in the village, only about five hundred people, most of them are young and middle-aged, among which there are many congenital masters, I secretly sigh in my heart that the masters of the secret clan are really endless, before I was indulged in the false name of South Murong and North Qiao Feng, but I don't know the truth that there are mountain people outside the mountain, it is really ridiculous. However, innate masters are not easy to cultivate, and the secret clan can cultivate so many masters, there should be a lot of extraordinary means.
The arrival of our three strangers attracted the attention of many people, and one of the young men in white came up to us and said, "Fang Fei, who are they?" How can you bring a stranger to our core station? What if they were spies sent by Jiang Ya? ”
Jiang Fangfei said angrily: "These three are the guests personally invited by the Great Elder, or the sworn enemies that Jiang Ya is chasing and killing with all his might, this Murong Gongzi is still the head of the Freedom Sect, why can't I bring them over?" ”
"The head of the Loose Sect? Then I want to see it, I don't know how much Your Excellency has mastered the Northern Darkness True Qi, Xiao Wuxiang Gong and Heavenly Sword Technique of the Carefree Sect? A middle-aged man in a gray shirt walked out of the room and said slowly.
"Meeting friends with a sword, a happy thing in the world, if Your Excellency is willing to teach, Murong can't ask for it." I have suffered a lot of losses in the Mi Clan, and I have suffered a few cruel moves in my chest and abdomen, and I think that if I can find out the martial arts routines of the Mi Clan, I may be able to find out the flaws of the other party or come up with a more labor-saving way to deal with it.
The gray-clothed middle-aged man stopped talking, casually pulled out a wooden sword in the firewood stack outside the house, slowly raised his hand, the tip of the sword pointed at me, and the next moment I immediately felt a fierce and incomparable sword momentum firmly locked on me, this middle-aged swordsman is not simple, I slowly pulled out the Xiaoyao sword with a solemn face, and confronted me from afar. For a moment, the whole village fell silent, shocked by the momentum of our two supreme masters, even the snowflakes fluttering in the air slowed down a few points, and time stood still at this moment.
In the battle of masters, it is often three or two moves to divide life and death, I don't dare to give up in this kind of top master duel, but if you are injured and killed, it will go against the original intention of visiting the Great Elder this time. So simply the long sword shook and stabbed out a move Cangshan to welcome guests, to my level, any ordinary move can turn decay into magic, but the simple Cangshan welcome contains three kinds of internal strength, seven changes and three rhythms, no matter how powerful the master, as long as people have to deal with it carefully, a trick to deal with carelessness may fall into the disadvantage, the whole game is lost.
A trace of admiration flashed in the eyes of the middle-aged man on the opposite side, but it was the wooden sword that stabbed at meadow, and there was a bit of elegance in the solemnity of the sword, I inexplicably thought of the immortal statue I saw in the city of David of the secret clan, this middle-aged swordsman's swordsmanship already has a bit of fairy sword style, giving me a sense of antelope hanging horns and impeccable. The end point of prosperity is simple, Cangshan welcomes guests also has a backbone, the middle-aged man's wooden sword grabbed an insignificant flaw in my Xiaoyao sword, slapped my sword hilt, bang, a strong surge, the other party's internal strength cultivation is only slightly inferior, but I have lost the first hand.
When the hand-to-hand is the most test of a swordsman's true strength, experience, strain, internal strength, physical fitness and other aspects are indispensable, with the beginning of the competition, I and the other party invariably choose to fight at close range, the two long swords in less than a zhang of space repeatedly clashed dozens of times, but it took less than half a cup of tea effort, the Mi people on the side were dumbfounded, although the Mi people have always been no shortage of masters, but both internal and external, innate peak masters are very few.
Suddenly, only to hear the sound of the bell, the two long swords collided hard, two powerful internal forces burst out, and an invisible wind forcibly pushed the onlookers away a few steps, only Zhiwei and Dalun shook their upper bodies and stopped in place with their own internal force. I admire it in my heart, although this middle-aged swordsman uses a wooden sword a little overbearing, if it weren't for me using internal force to wrap the edge of the Easy Sword, I'm afraid that the first few encounters would make him break the sword and bleed. Rao is like this, and it can also be seen that his internal strength is prosperous, and I vaguely feel that his kendo cultivation may still be above me.
I also put my sword into the sheath, and said solemnly: "Murong Fu of the Xia Xiaoyao faction, I don't know what Your Excellency is called?" ”
But he heard him say: "Nie Zhen of the secret clan." ”
I was about to further ask him about his swordsmanship, but I heard Jiang Fangfei on the side knock on his sword scabbard and said, "The Great Elder has an order, please ask Murong Gongzi to follow me to see the Elder, and no one else is allowed to interfere." ”
Hearing this, Nie Zhen threw his sword into the stack of firewood and turned back to his room.
I can only regretfully follow Fang Fei and continue to move forward, but I don't care about the secret clan masters who are talking about it on the side.
There is a cave in the valley near the top of the mountain, and the three of us follow Fang Fei to the cave, the closer the distance, the more I feel an invisible Dao rhyme spreading faintly, as if there is nothing, expressing the laws of the Heavenly Dao in a more intuitive way. However, unlike the statue of Ji Ran Immortal that I saw in Fort David, this kind of Dao rhyme is accompanied by a certain vitality, and I feel in my heart, this should be the Dao rhyme that a certain master has cultivated and naturally emitted, maybe one day my martial arts cultivation to a certain level may be able to reach this realm. After staying outside the cave for a while, and feeling the other party's abyss like the sea, I felt that it was really a wise choice to follow the little girl Fang Fei to this valley, at least to some extent, to understand the direction of future cultivation.
Fang Fei seemed to be accustomed to this, patiently waited for the three of us for a moment, then came forward to knock on the door to ask for instructions, and waited until the old voice of "come in" came from the cave before pushing the door and walked in, entering the cave I found that there was a cave here, which was divided into several secret rooms, similar to the underground secret room of Fort David, a gray-haired old man leaned against the stone wall and sat cross-legged looking at us. This is a pair of eyes full of wisdom, although it is not lacking in vitality despite age, and if it were not for the wrinkles of gray hair betraying his age, I think that his vitality is not below that of a young man in his twenties and thirties in terms of eyes alone. The Dao Yun I felt outside the cave was emanating from him, which was a realm that even the patriarchs of the secret clan could not reach, surpassing the innate masters, at least reaching the peak of refining qi and transforming gods, or even the realm of refining gods and returning to the void.
I stepped forward and said, "Murong Fu, the head of the Carefree Sect, pays a visit to his seniors. ”
The elder raised his hand lightly and said, "No need to be polite, you are the first of the Freedom Sect, well, the head of the thirty-seventh generation, right?" I remember that the previous one should have been this kid without cliffs. The Xiaoyao Sect is a noble sect with a long heritage, and although it is now in decline, it seems that it is going to be carried forward in you. The old man Jiang Huaiyuan, who is the twenty-seventh generation of the great elder of the secret clan, is fortunate to see the contemporary head of the Xiaoyao faction today, which is also a great joy in life. ”
