XVII. Visitors to the Vulture Palace
Just as Master Wuyazi explained the hidden power of martial arts to me one by one, Su Xinghe's voice sounded outside the cave: "Senior brother, there is a woman outside the valley who asks to see the new head of the Xiaoyao faction, I wonder if you will meet?" ”
Oh? After saying goodbye to my master, I came out and said, "Bring them here." ”
Coming in were two masked women in turquoise cloaks, looking at their slender figures, they should be twenty-eight years old, and the magic was that the height and temperament of the two were the same, as if they were cast in the same mold.
After the two women came in, they looked at the people in the room, and one of them stepped forward and asked me, the only one sitting on the stone bench in the field, "Your Excellency is the new head of the Loose Sect?" ”
I said indifferently, "Exactly, what advice do you have?" ”
The woman replied: "We are under the gate of the Ethereal Peak Vulture Palace, and my palace lord Tianshan Tong has learned the news that the new head of the Xiaoyao Sect has successfully cleaned up the portal, and I want to invite Your Excellency to my Vulture Palace, I don't know what Your Excellency thinks?" ”
I thought for a moment and asked, "What else did your master say besides inviting me?" ”
"The Lord said that as a reward for killing the traitor, if Your Excellency can rush to my Vulture Palace before the fifteenth day of August, you can instruct you to learn from the Easy Sect."
I had a rough guess in my mind, but I didn't say anything, waved my hand, and said, "I'll go to the Vulture Palace before August 15, you guys go back." ”
The two women said yes, but they just stepped aside and did not leave, my heart was bright, it must be the master who strictly ordered them to take me back to the Vulture Palace. It's the middle of June, and although it's still early on August 15, it's not bad to visit the arsenal of the Vulture Palace, so I went in to say goodbye to the master and went to the Vulture Palace with the two women.
Before parting, Wu Yazi suddenly said: "I have been living in seclusion in the valley for a long time, half of my body is disabled, and I don't want to see my old friend again. ”
I sighed and agreed.
Out of the valley, along the way, the two women from the Vulture Palace were cautious and followed me closely, quite surveillance, which made me not very happy, so I spoke: "I have been out for a long time, and I don't know what is going on at home, I want to go home first and then go to the Vulture Palace." ”
The two women were slightly stunned, and one of them asked playfully, "Where is your home?" Far from it? ”
I smiled slightly: "I live in Jiangnan Yanziwu in the next house, hurry up, and I can get home in about fifteen days." ”
The two women were shocked when they heard this: "Never! In this way, it will take at least more than a month, and it will be difficult to reach the Vulture Palace before August 15! ”
I said indifferently: "However, your lord is just an invitation, and he didn't force me to go, right?" ”
One of the women clenched the long sword in her hand and said coldly: "Son, forgive me, Grandma Tong wants me to take you back, Grandma Tong will follow the law, and you can't resist, even if you are tied up, you will be tied back." ”
I casually raised my hand and stretched out my hand to make a mark on the banyan tree beside me, and a deep palm print was left on the tree pole, and said, "I am the head of the free and easy faction, if I can be kidnapped by you two little women, it will not be a joke." ”
The two women didn't go down the mountain very often, and they were eyeing me just now, and in the face of my strength, they couldn't do anything, so they had to beg bitterly: "Childe forgive me, we are rude." If you can't take your son back on time, Grandma Tong will definitely punish us heavily, and the heavy punishment will be enough, if you can't complete the task assigned by Grandma Tong, how can we have the face to go back to see Grandma Tong. ”
My eyes wandered over the two of them, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of my mouth: "It's not impossible for me to go with you, do as I tell you, take off the veil first."
The two hesitated for a moment, and could only remove the veil. My eyes lit up, and I saw that the two of them had beautiful faces, ice muscles and jade skin, eyebrows and waists, thin necks and straight backs, and a faint virgin atmosphere seemed to float in the air. What surprised me the most was that the two women looked exactly the same, apparently twins. Twin beauties are rare. My heart moved slightly, and I sat on the big rock on the side of the road, stared at them presumptuously, and said, "What are the names of you two?" Any position in the palace? Take off your outer robe, aren't you hot in this weather? ”。
The two hesitated slightly, and finally removed the robe, and one of the women in a crimson shirt replied helplessly: "Childe, I am the maid under the seat of Grandma Tong, named Mei Jian." Another woman dressed in emerald green followed crisply, "My name is Lan Jian. ”
I looked at them and said, "Do you know why Grandma Tong asked you to invite me over?" The two of them shook their heads, the Vulture Palace is invincible in the northwest, and if you want to find someone, you usually send someone directly to capture it, and it is the first time that you have invited you like this, so the two of them looked at me curiously.
"Because Grandma Tong is my uncle, she invited me to the past to let me inherit her mantle, and I will be your new master in the future."
"Ah, this, this, how is it possible, we have followed Grandma Tong for many years, but we have never heard that the Lord has a master and nephew."
"What's impossible about this, Grandma Tong and I are both disciples of the Freedom Sect, and her mastery is to be the only one who respects the merits, folds the plum hand, the six yang palms, and the life and death talismans, right?"
The two of them were so shocked that they opened their mouths slightly, obviously very surprised by my martial arts foundation called Grandma Tianshan Tong.
I felt more and more about the cuteness of the twins, so I continued: "We are from the same family, and the disciples of the Easy Sect are withered, and I am the only one left in this generation of disciples, and the master can only pass on the mantle to me, what is strange about this, therefore, you should call me young master, not some son." ”
The two of them were at a loss under my gaze, although I couldn't believe it, but I said everything reasonably, combined with the instructions of Grandma Tong when I came, and finally had to bow down and salute, and said: "My subordinates meet the young master." ”
When the two of them lowered their heads, they both showed their thin necks, as elegant as swans, and I stepped forward to hold their hands and said: "Whether it is the Xiaoyao Sect or the Vulture Palace, the upper and lower respects must be strictly observed, you must obediently listen to me in the future, let me kiss it first, do you hear?" ”
The two of them blushed and didn't dare to resist, so they obediently let me be presumptuous, so they continued on the road. Under my linguistic offensive and sophisticated methods, two women who are not deeply involved in the world can only be obedient and obedient to me. On the way to the Vulture Palace, there are two delicate and obedient beautiful twins accompanying each other, rushing during the day and warming the bed at night, which is not too good.
On this day, when I arrived at the ethereal peak of the Tianshan Mountains, Mei Jian first went up the mountain to report, Lan Jian and I walked slowly to the mountain, and there were many natural dangers along the way, among which the Broken Soul Cliff is a road opened up in the middle of the Wanzhang Cliff, which can only accommodate one person to walk, one side is the mountain, and the other side is the Wanzhang Cliff; There are similarities in the lost foot rock and the Baizhang stream; And every dangerous place is guarded. It is even more dangerous to reach the overpass, there is only one iron cable between the two cliffs, under the deep valley of the rocky rocks, the mountain wind hits, the iron cable sways gently, if there is no certain internal force and light industry cultivation, it is easy to fall into pieces. If a strong enemy is attacking, you can also directly cut the iron rope to block and delay the enemy's attack.
According to what Mei Jianlan said, there are hundreds of people in the Eagle Palace of the Ethereal Peak, walking between this dangerous mountain peak every day, if you don't have a certain martial arts foundation, you obviously can't get along. With hundreds of martial arts masters, it is no wonder that they can suppress the thirty-six cave masters and the seventy-two island island masters and a group of rebellious people who are breathless.
Arrived at the top of the mountain, my eyes lit up, a grand palace stands in front of me out of thin air, the palace is 3 zhang high, the main hall is nine rooms wide, carved beams and painted buildings, beautiful, the door plaque on the main gate dragon flying phoenix dance is written with the word "vulture". The most amazing thing is that there is a golden and brilliant divine bird standing on the plaque of the main entrance, and it should be a jade carved eagle vulture if you look closely, gilded and colorful, it looks lifelike, and a fierce and unruly breath is coming.
In addition to the palace on the front, along the terrain of the entire ethereal peak, there are also more than a dozen affiliated palaces of all sizes built, although it is not carved beams and painted buildings, it is also quite exquisite, and there are people in and out from time to time, which looks quite prosperous.
Enter the main hall, the hall is five deep, and an old woman with crane hair and childish face sits on the throne on the back of the gilded handrail, the throne is very elegant, decorated with grass leaf pattern and cloud pattern, there is a round gold lacquer crested head on the armrest, and there are hanging beads in the mouth. At this time, the old woman was absentmindedly looking at a book, and there were more than a dozen women in strong costumes standing on each side, some old and some young, but each breathing lightly, her temples bulging, obviously each with superior martial arts. The entire hall was silent, and no one made any noise. Probably hearing the footsteps of me coming in, the woman raised her head, frowned slightly and looked at me, and said: "The old man has lived in the northwest for many years, and he has not been to the Central Plains for a long time. ”
I took a few steps forward, bowed down and hugged my fists and said, "Senior Murong Fu, I have seen my uncle." ”
The old woman's eyes lit up, her hand holding the book clenched slightly, and she asked with some excitement, "Do you know my identity?" Did your master tell you? Where is Wuyazi? Is it still alive? ”
I replied according to Wu Yazi's instructions: "Uncle Yu, Master Wu Yazi has gone to the immortal in order to pass on the gong to me, and before leaving, his old man passed me the Seven Treasure Ring, and told the master and nephew to greet you. ”
The book in Tianshan Tong's hand trembled slightly, sat in contemplation, and said softly after a while: "In this way, Wuyazi has really passed on the position of the head of the Freedom Sect to you. After a while, he stood up and said to me, "Follow me." At this time, I noticed that when Wu Xingyun was sitting, although his eyes were fluorescent, his bearing was vigorous, and he had the demeanor of a grandmaster, he stood up and was only eleven or twelve years old, which was a little funny. No wonder she requires that all outsiders who go up the mountain to meet must be blindfolded, so that no one knows the appearance of Tianshan Tong's grandmother so far, and I am probably a rare exception because of the head of the free faction.
As Wu Xingyun left from the side gate of the Vulture Palace, he came to a pavilion with the word "stargazing" written on it, and a small stream flowing briskly next to it, overlooking the entire Ethereal Peak and even the Tianshan Mountains in the distance, my heart moved, but this is a good place, not only the scenery is beautiful, but you can also see the enemy who is trying to attack from afar.
There was a stone table on the top of the pavilion, on which there was a chessboard and a chess game that had not yet been played, and I recognized it as the same Zhenlong chess game as Dali Wuliang Cave and Drum Mountain. Wu Xingyun said expressionlessly: "You said that you have solved this Zhenlong, how the first son plays the law, show me." ”
I said yes, the first pawn at the moment stuffed a look, swelled a large piece of my white pawn, the situation was cheerful, and then according to the previous number of paths, counterattacked the black pieces. Wu Xingyun's forehead was dripping with sweat, and he muttered: "Providence, providence!" Who in the world wants to get this strange method of 'kill yourself first, then attack the enemy'? After the game of Zhenlong was solved, Wu Xingyun pondered for a long time, and said: "In this way, it seems that you can inherit the position of the head of the Xiaoyao faction is also extraordinary. ”
So I will go through them one by one, of course, about the Heavenly Sword Technique and the Easy Sword, as well as the news that Wuyazi is still alive, I have concealed it, but I just said that after Master Wuyazi passed on my martial arts and internal strength, my energy declined, and I was injured by Ding Chunqiu's plot before, and I passed away not long after.
