Chapter 16: The Gathering of the Demon Kings (Part I)
Nanban Secret Realm. Underground Palace.
After Tang Xian returned, the three elders of the Demon Sect and the inn party also learned about the painting.
The meaning of the painting can be guessed by everyone.
"Looks like you're going to have a tough fight." Li Nianyun frowned and stared at the sand character at the top of the scroll.
"It's not just them, it's you." The scholar's mind was calculating the time. He asked Tang Xian to send a letter a few days ago, and he didn't know how long it would take to arrive, and whether the person would be able to arrive after receiving the letter.
Li Nianyun frowned, because even a fool knew that this was a trap.
Qing Miaoyue glanced at the scholar and said, "Ling'er once went to the altar of the Desolate Moon God Sect, and that tower has six floors, that is, there are six duels. Scholar, what do you think the other party will arrange, and how should we arrange? ”
The scholar said: "The best arrangement is not to be invited. ”
Qing Miaoyue shook her head and said, "But do you look at the two of them, as if they shouldn't be invited?" ”
The scholar naturally noticed it, and the Demon Sect and everyone in the inn noticed the strangeness of Chen Hui and Chen Ling. Even Chen Ling was more excited than Chen Hui's expression.
Even Liu Jia didn't know that person's name, and they naturally knew that Chen Ling had been looking for her father for a long time. But almost no one knew that that person was the person who defeated the world's heroes outside Liankong City back then, and even if he knew, he would never know that there was a sand character in that person's name.
Compared with Chen Hui, Chen Ling and Chen Sha spend very little time together, and it is a very sadistic feeling to try to remember a person every day, especially with hatred. After the martial arts conference, Chen Ling saw Chen Sha's letter from Chen Hui's hand, and finally understood one thing at that time, it turned out that there was really a river and lake above the rivers and lakes. At that time, she learned of Chensha's death, and she didn't want to be sad, but she couldn't help but feel grief. After looking for so many years, she finally died without seeing each other, and the thoughts that had supported her through many adversities all those years collapsed in an instant, and those questions that could not be answered even in dreams could no longer be answered.
To live to see people, to die to see corpses. This is Chen Ling's last obsession, even if Chen Sha is really dead, she will find Chen Sha. She must have figured out what that person was doing, even her wife and daughter could ignore it, what kind of deep rivers and lakes could make a person who was a true martial artist have no return? Only with the answer can she let go of these thoughts.
Chenhui also found it difficult to calm down.
After Chensha left a letter and brought it back, he never saw Chensha again, and he didn't look for Chensha for a long time, far less than Chenling, but unlike Chenling's obsession, Chensha's nurturing grace to Chenhui made Chenhui unable to give up, and of course he didn't want Chensha to be dead. What is the deepest part of that river and lake, every night every day over the years, he will think about it.
At the martial arts conference, he learned that the original master had done such a wonderful feat back then, and it turned out that even a talent like the master of Ningmen had been assigned by the master.
Chenhui is not a person obsessed with hatred, and Chensha is not a benevolent and righteous person in the absolute sense. But Chenhui, who was taught by Chensha, does have good thoughts that are incompatible with this Jianghu.
It's just that even a person like Chenhui can't convince himself to let go of one thing - to avenge his master. Murder pays for life, blood for blood.
Neither of them spoke. But everyone in the scene knew that there was a certain information hidden in this painting that Chen Ling and Chen Hui must understand.
The scholar sighed: "In this case, Longtan Tiger's Den has no choice but to try to break through." ”
Qing Miaoyue said: "Six people, how do you arrange it." ”
The scholar said, "Liuli can't go. ”
Ruri asked, "Why?" ”
The scholar said: "The attack on the Demon Sect by the Heavenly Machine Pavilion must be a deal with the empire, among us, you are the most valuable, as long as you are still there, even if you are a trip to the Desolate Moon God Sect...... If we are defeated, we also have the capital to talk to the Empire. ”
Gong Ruri stopped talking.
The scholar said again: "Except for Liuli and me, everyone else in the inn is not really what the empire has to deal with. So I'm not going either. ”
Qing Miaoyue smiled: "Can you be regarded as using the public for personal gain?" Fleeing for fear of war? ”
The scholar didn't speak, but Chen replied: "Even if Mr. and Xiao Liuli want to go, I won't agree." ”
The cook nodded and said, "If you and your sister can't do this kind of thing like fighting, you and your sister can't do it, just leave it to me and the shopkeeper." ”
The scholar didn't explain too much, this trip to the Desolate Moon Divine Sect, the Tianji Pavilion must have sent the top combat power, and the inn and the Demon Sect are really the top, counting Li Nianyun, the lord of Yunci Valley, there are only three of them. The strength is as low as his own, but if he goes, it is just to add chaos, and there are more than six top combat power in the Tianji Pavilion, in the eyes of scholars, the covenant of the Desolate Moon Divine Sect is more than auspicious, and it is not possible to act rashly. And the rest of the inn has also reached a consensus on this kind of thing, that is, how to arrange the account room, the rest of the people will do it.
"Elder Bai and Elder Qing Miaoyue can't go either."
Qing Miaoyue said: "I don't need your protection." ”
The scholar said: "I heard that you and Elder Bai were both appointed elders before Sect Master Chen succeeded to the Demon Sect Master, and the qualifications of the two of you are better than Brother Tang, even though Liu Jia can persuade most of the people from other strongholds of the Demon Sect to return to the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, you and Elder Bai may not be able to pull this group of people back." ”
Then the scholar glanced at it and said, "Cook, Ah Xiu, shopkeeper, Master Li, Brother Tang, Sect Master Chen." This time, it's the six of you. ”
The cook hurriedly said: "How can Ah Xiu go!" I disagree. ”
The scholar said, "If I'm not mistaken, there's a good chance that the ghost doctor will be in the six-story tower. ”
At the mention of Mizang, Zhong Yunxiu raised his head.
Zhong Yunxiu has not forgotten the scenes in the Nanban Secret Realm, in addition to the death of his mother and his father's fear of medicine, there are countless people who have died of red pupil resentment. At that time, Zhong Yunxiu could only cry helplessly, begging Chenhui to kill Mizang with a sense of powerlessness. But after the martial arts conference, she learned that Mizang was not dead, and for Zhong Yunxiu, although the reaction at that time was very calm, it was also because she decided that she was going to kill Mizang with her own hands.
The red dress swayed, Zhong Yunxiu stood up and said, "Brother Ding, if Mi is there, I must go this time." ”
The determination in the words made Ding Qiliang unable to refuse. Ding Qiliang let out a long sigh and asked, "Why did Mr. conclude that the ghost doctor Mizang would go?" ”
The scholar said: "As far as the pavilion master is concerned, he has already mastered the information of the inn, and now only the information of Liuli has not been mastered, so there are only five people on the scroll. The Lord of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion now has the advantage, so he doesn't have to do this, but now he has proposed to go to the tower to fight, these six duels, must be the six duels against the inn, and he wants to defeat us comprehensively. Naturally, Mizo will also be sent. ”
"As far as Mizo himself is concerned, Ah Xiu has the most top-notch pharmacist talent, and he can taste the ingredients in the medicine just by his sense of taste, and those who are really obsessed with poison don't want anyone to be able to detoxify. After Uncle Zhong went into hiding, what he wanted to kill most now was Ah Xiu, whether it was for revenge or not to be hindered by Ah Xiu in the future. ”
Zhong Yunxiu said: "Now I am no longer the powerless me I was at that time, sir, shopkeeper brother, brother Ding, only Mizang, I must defeat it!" ”
The scholar said: "When it comes to the degree of evil, Mizo is probably second only to the pavilion master, although his martial arts are low, but he has a medicine attendant by his side. Not to be underestimated. ”
Zhong Yunxiu said: "I have never underestimated him, in fact, my father once said that Mizo is the most talented person he has ever met, but I will prove that my medical skills are better than his poison skills!" ”
The scholar nodded, he also expected that Zhong Yunxiu would not miss the duel with Mizang.
In the end, the scholar said: "Shopkeeper, Sect Master Chen, I am not worried about the others in this confrontation, but one of the two of you will definitely face the Pavilion Master, if the Tianji Pavilion Master really knows about the affairs of that senior, then I am afraid that his true origin is not simple, and the strength of the Pavilion Master has already entered the extreme." Perhaps the strongest enemy you have ever faced. ”
Chen Hui and Chen Ling glanced at each other. But then he immediately looked away. Both of their thoughts fell on one spot at this moment. Chen Ling thought about facing the pavilion master and letting Chen Hui face the others, and Chen Hui thought about facing the pavilion master and letting Chen Ling face the others. No one wants to leave the most dangerous person to another person.
Qing Miaoyue said: "Looking at the appearance of these two people, they have to go." ”
The scholar said: "The dragon general and I both think that the Tianji Pavilion must be a catastrophe for the rivers and lakes and even the mainland. And the appearance of the inn seems to me to be lucky, but now, the chef's knife skills have not yet been completed, and now he is almost invincible in the face of the martial artists of the same realm, but the Tianji Pavilion is the top master in the world, and they will not keep their hands like swords and ghosts; Although Ah Xiu's medical skills have improved by leaps and bounds, he may still be a little reluctant to face the poison technique that has long been a peerless ghost doctor in the world; I don't know the power of the black jade netherworld, but I can chase Feng Zhan without being thrown away, and he is also known as the natural enemy of White Jade Akasi, and his strength must not be weak, and it may be a good thing that Feng Zhan did not come. The other people in the Tianji Pavilion, originally I thought that Yan Xing, who didn't know martial arts, was a master of the Nine Leaves Realm, and as for Li Zangjian, Gu Sanqiu, Lan Yusi, and Chi Yusi, their strength was even more unfathomable. ”
Li Nianyun said: "How do you feel like we can't beat it? ”
Qing Miaoyue said: "It is clear that the enemy is strong and I am weak, otherwise how would they have this invitation." But Ling'er is obsessed with finding someone, and she wants to come to Chen's shopkeeper as well. ”
Chen Hui nodded and said, "Only this matter, I can't let go." ”
Chen Ling also said, "That Heavenly Machine Pavilion Lord had better really know. ”
The scholar said: "We still have three days to go, and it is best to pray that we can know as much as possible about the deployment of the Tianji Pavilion in these three days." The soldiers are not tired of deceit, this may just be a game on the whim of the Lord of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, and it is very likely that he has laid an ambush. ”
Tang Xian said: "The Desolate Moon Divine Sect is now shrouded in black mist, and some of our people once tried to blend in, but when they touched the black mist, they were immediately discovered. I have seen this black fog with the sect master, at the time of the martial arts conference, outside the first floor of the world, the master of this black fog was fighting against the wind exhibition. ”
"The Black Jade Division's Netherworld." The scholar didn't know the ability of the Netherworld, he only knew that the Netherworld was another top assassin cultivated by the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, and no one knew the true identity, nor did he know the techniques and realms used. It's just that as Black Jade Division, its strength may be on the same level as a legendary assassin like Akasi.
The scholars are silent, there are many masters in the Tianji Pavilion, even if the white jade division and the akasi will not participate, they can still have more people, so what is the deployment of the Tianji Pavilion, and which people they will send to fight against the inn and the Demon Sect, for the scholars, they all need to be scrutinized.
……
The duel between the Heavenly Machine Pavilion or the Desolate Moon Divine Sect and the Inn Demon Sect is approaching, and in addition to the scholar, there is another wise man. When Yan Xing received the summons, he was actually reluctant to come to a place like the Nanban Secret Realm. There are countless poisonous insects and beasts here, and his safety is also a concern when he leaves Kyoto. As a person who is accustomed to being behind the scenes, he has traveled thousands of miles from northern cities to Nanban, which in the eyes of Li Zangjian, Gu Sanqiu and others, is not in line with Yan Xing's way of doing things.
But the awakening still came.
After learning that the Deserted Moon Divine Cult was established in the Southern Barbarians, Yan Xing made the same inferences as scholars. The Heavenly Machine Pavilion should have made some kind of deal with the higher authorities of the Empire. And who the person in power is, Yan Xing has already guessed. The Yan family is not weak now, but it is indeed not as good as before. The Heavenly Machine Pavilion Lord was able to recruit top masters such as Akasi Nie Traceless Li Zangjian, relying on what he liked. Yan Xing didn't expect that he would also have such a day when he was favored by the master of Tianji Pavilion.
Yan woke up, and there must be Li Zangjian with him.
Before the Lord of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion returned, in the Nine Jades of the Heavenly Machine that Yan Xing could call, there were Li Zangjian, Gu Sanqiu, and Mizang. Now that the pavilion master has returned, Yan Xing has found that the so-called being in charge of half of the Tianji Pavilion is just a joke.
Gu Sanqiu and Mizang were still loyal to the Heavenly Machine Pavilion Master in the end. Only Li Zangjian is willing to always follow Yan Xing. Yan Xing hadn't actually seen the Heavenly Machine Pavilion Master. I just know this person, and I have also learned about the deeds of the Tianji Pavilion Lord through the intelligence network, and intuitively I know that this Tianji Pavilion Master is a very dangerous person. For Gu Sanqiu Mizang and these people to follow so loyally, maybe the danger alone is not enough to describe.
So when he received the message from the pavilion master, he thought about it a little, and finally decided to come to Nanban to meet the true master of Tianji Pavilion.
In addition to the Moon River Tower, there is also a large hall in the altar of the Desolate Moon God Sect, and there are a total of nine people in the main hall at this moment.
Akasi had the impression that since the day he joined the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, it seemed that he had never seen all nine people in one place. And the clothed guest in front of the main hall also gave Akasi an inexplicable sense of crisis.
The Black Jade Netherworld leaned against the edge of the stone pillar in the corner, its eyes fixed on Akath, who was also looking at the other assassin of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion.
Huang Yusi Gu Sanqiu hummed a little song to himself, sipping tea, and seemed to be in a very good mood. Usually the only thing that can make Gu Sanqiu feel good is money. There are also profitable businesses.
Lan Yusi Nie Wuxian looked at Ziyu Si Li Zangjian, Li Zangjian didn't know Nie Wujian's identity, but instinctively felt that this person was a real sword master. Nie Wuxian was not so much looking at Li Zangjian, but rather looking at the Vientiane Sword in Li Zangjian's hand, his eyes flashed, and he was shocked by battle intent.
Akatama stood next to the clothed guest, his face difficult to see under the cover of the wide red robe and hood. Gu Sanqiu noticed that Chi Yusi's clothes had changed. Today's Chiyu Si is no longer the high priest of the Haotian Sect, but the new Haotian Sect.
The green jade Si Mizang was also in the corner, and the upper half of his body was hidden in the darkness, and he could vaguely see a person behind Mizang. To be exact, a medicine attendant. It's just that I can't see my face clearly, and I don't know which master of which faction was killed this time.
Yan Xing looked at this scene, and suddenly admired the master of Tianji Pavilion a little. He hadn't seen the shopkeeper, but it was indeed a great skill to be able to bring the former son of the Sword Emperor, the daughter of the world's first divine doctor, the only royal family in the Chu State, and the strategists around the dragon general into the inn, and all this done by the Lord of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion was also extraordinary, or it could be said to be even more amazing. Everyone in this hall, including Yan Xing, it was hard for him to imagine how far such nine masters could go by working together.
Maybe it can destroy a country. This thought made Yan Xing suddenly frightened. But then, too, there was excitement.
The nine jades of the heavenly machine are all assembled.
(Xiao Qianye, as the pavilion master, is actually one of the nine jades, because he didn't think of the right color, he temporarily called the pavilion master, and the lineup of the 233 boss side is still relatively strong, and it is not easy to write.) After all, there are more characters, and it always feels a bit like the Avengers. There's one last shot left, and it's time for tomorrow's chapter. The battle between the inn and the Heavenly Machine Pavilion can be regarded as a turning point in the middle of the story. It's still more meaningful. )
