Chapter 48

Seeing this, everyone cast inquiring glances at Master Qingjue, who pondered for a moment, waited for a moment to recall carefully, and then told a past event.

It turned out that Master Qingjue had participated in the activities of exterminating evil cultivators in the past, and the northern land was under the control of the Buddhist sect, and the Rakshasa Gate was located in the northern land.

There is no need to repeat the process of clearing, and after cleaning the battlefield, they found that the Rakshasa Gate actually worshiped the evil god in the mausoleum in the back mountain, and the evil god must be sacrificed to the spirit of the living, and the end is very evil.

It's just that the power of the Rakshasa Gate was too small at that time, and they had just developed and were extremely unfortunate to encounter that clearance operation, so they were annihilated by the Raising Sect before they could collect enough living essence to activate the evil spirits.

The unactivated evil spirit is just a strange stone statue, and it does not possess any unpredictable abilities, and the Buddha just destroyed it and did not take it to heart.

This was a matter of decades ago, and now that time has passed, Master Qingjue has long forgotten about it, only to hear Jingkong mention it, and combined with what Li Xunlian said about the situation of the Yan Demon sucking the essence of life when the population disappeared, he suddenly realized.

"At that time, I only thought that destroying the evil spirit stone statue would be a matter of matter, but now it seems that it is because the life essence collected by the Rakshasa Gate back then has not dispersed, or is it that they have been secretly doing that kind of unconscionable deed all these years?"

"What does the master mean, the demon clan is trying to occupy the Rakshasa Mountain Gate, but it has discovered the hidden life essence of the Rakshasa Gate?" asked Li Xunlian.

Master Qingjue nodded and said, "Very likely!"

After this analysis, Li Xunlian and others also felt that this would be the case if the matter was not far from ten, and since they had made a conjecture now, they needed to prepare early. Judging from the situation of the demon clan's resistance to the Buddha Sect, they should be reluctant to leave the Rakshasa Gate and be reluctant to give up those life essences, which means that they are bound to win the Rakshasa Gate, so they will definitely attack the Rakshasa Gate in the future.

"Master, this matter must be prepared for a rainy day, the demon clan has suffered a loss under your sect this time, and next time you come, it is likely that stronger demons will join, so be careful. ”

"This is natural. Master Qingjue got up directly after saying that, and said, "Since you can listen to Gongzi's detailed description, you can be sure that those aliens must be demon clans." This matter is urgent, and I will immediately return to the mountain to make an embankment, and then I will leave. ”

Politeness needs to be timed, and it is obvious that it should not be polite at the moment, so the big shopkeeper and Li Xunlian got up one after another and personally sent the three of them down the mountain.

At the foot of the mountain, Master Qingjue seemed to think of something, turned back to Li Xunlian and said: "Childe can get words out of the mouth of the demon clan, when the demon clan reappears in the future, I should try my best to capture one or two alive, and then come to Shenjian Peak to visit and hand it over to Gongzi for interrogation." If Childe doesn't have anything important to do lately, try to stay in the mountains as much as possible, so that it is convenient to get in touch as soon as possible. ”

Master Qingjue pursues too much safety, in fact, this arrangement is not very necessary, but it is also reasonable, after all, Li Xunlian is wandering outside, if he really finds out, it will be difficult to meet in the first place, and it is easy to delay the progress of the incident.

Since people are so concerned, Li Xunlian naturally agrees, anyway, he has been planning a lot recently, and he is not ready to go out.

I have to say that Master Qingjue has a simple and simple temperament, and he doesn't think so much nonsense when he speaks, this remark is a little arrogant, and he himself feels embarrassed, but seeing Li Xunlian's agreement, he feels a lot more relieved.

When Master Qingjue is sent away, the matter can be considered to be over for the time being, and all that needs to be done now is to wait.

There was nothing to say for a day, but at noon the next day, Hu Wan rushed over with a few surviving brothers under the guidance of Su.

The brothers were very happy to see each other, and they didn't need to mention the wine, and they had to meet the big shopkeeper, everyone had nothing to do, Li Xunlian took them to enjoy the scenery around the Shenjian Peak, which is the first peak in Kyushu, ethereal and unpredictable like a fairy peak, and many magnificent wonders attracted everyone to praise again and again.

At ten o'clock in the evening, when the others were tired, they went back to their rooms to rest, Li Xunlian and Hu Wan came to "watch the world" to enjoy the sunset, the world is a cliff, the Shenjian Peak is as high as 10,000 zhang, this cliff is the highest place of the Shenjian Peak, looking into the distance here, the earth seems to be crawling under the feet, there is really a heroic feeling of "taking in the world at a glance".

The two were talking nonsense, but a carrier pigeon flew towards Li Xunlian.

He looked at it, the pigeon's coat color was black and white, and he had never raised such an ugly pigeon, but there was a sense of familiarity, so he was a little interested.

Stretching out his hand to call the carrier pigeon to stay in his palm, Li Xunlian took off the letterbox, pulled out the cork and took the letter to view, and the content of the letter almost did not make him sad.

The letter was written by Gu Panxi, and the content was as simple and straightforward as ever: shameless, the carrier pigeon you raised is not a good thing, when will you come back.

Shameless is naturally to scold him for looking for the girl he replied to in the letter last time, but the carrier pigeon raised by Li Xunlian is just an ignorant livestock, how can he still offend her......

Grabbing the carrier pigeon and looking, after a while, Li Xunlian rubbed his eyebrows helplessly, this carrier pigeon is indeed the white-feathered carrier pigeon he raised, but its pure white feathers were dyed with black ink, and it looks like three words in detail.

It's really a retarded person to mumble stupid, but there is still a trace of sweetness flowing through my heart. Not only because of when did that sentence come back, but also because Li Xunlian found that this carrier pigeon seemed to be a lot fatter, and the undyed feathers were a little smoother.

"I guess it's a bit of a serious matter to be fed by a dumb person. ”

Hu Wan on the side of the mirror saw Li Xunlian whispering to himself, the expression on his face changed from time to time, he wrinkled his nose and became angry for a while, and smiled at the corner of his mouth for a while, which was very strange.

Driven by curiosity, he was about to come over to take a look, but he saw Li Xunlian hurriedly hiding the letter paper in the Sumeru ring, and his demeanor was very panicked, as if he was a thief.

Hu Wan laughed and understood, and when his words were white, he also said secretly: "This kid looks big on weekdays, and it turns out that he also has the careful thoughts of these children." ”

"Yo Yo Yo, your face is red, I said brother, which girl makes you miss you so much?" Hu Wan naturally would not miss such a great opportunity to ridicule Li Xunlian.

"Get out of the way, my son ......"

Li Xunlian was about to laugh and scold, when a human voice suddenly came not far away, and even though his footsteps were getting closer and closer, there were two people.

Hearing that voice, Li Xunlian knew who it was, and a trace of disgust could not help but appear on his face.

Hu Wan is rude on the outside but extremely delicate on the inside, and when he looks at it from the side, he mutters in his heart.

You must know that Li Xunlian is a dignified innkeeper, and there is only disgust in his expression rather than contempt and disgust, which shows that the status of the person who came is not lower than him, even if it is low, it will not be too low. What's more, Li Xunlian's character doesn't need to be repeated, what can make him disgusted and can also travel freely in Shenjian Peak is afraid that it will not be a good type.

In a moment, the comer had already arrived in front of the two of them. These are two teenagers of the same age as them, one of them is in a long shape, similar to Hu Wan, and his appearance is not bad, but for some reason his face is slightly purple, I don't know if it is set by the sunset.

This person was followed by the man who should be a servant, the physique was very fat, and the round little eyes were deeply embedded in the flesh of the face, if it weren't for Hu Wan to see the humble servility from his actions, he would still be able to be the master for this person.

"Big brother, why didn't you know that you would be a little brother when you came back, and I missed it for a few days in vain. The purple-faced young man smiled at Li Xunlian and spoke, but this was a nice thing to say, but there was a bit of discomfort in the smile.

Li Xun glanced at him and sneered: "Don't call me a brother, I can't stand it." ”

"Big brother, where are you talking about, you are the son of the big shopkeeper, I am the son of the third shopkeeper, if you don't call you big brother, what else can you be called. The purple-faced young man was still smiling, paused, and said sideways: "Lu Heng, take out the gift I prepared for my son." ”

Lu Heng was the servant slave who came with the purple-faced son, his face was smug when he heard this, and the blue light flashed in his hand, but a piece of dead wood that was red like fire appeared out of thin air.

Hu Wan saw a burst of envy in his heart, and the servants and slaves of the three princes of the secret road were all mixed with the Sumeru ring, and the inn was really profound. But he thought about it, he is now the second son of the inn, Sumeru or something, sooner or later.

"This is the high-grade backfire wood that the third prince personally found for you at great risk, and you have taken it away, eldest prince. Lu Heng stepped forward with a smile and offered the so-called backfire wood with both hands.

Stretching out his hand to take it, Li Xunlian looked at it for a moment as if he had found some kind of discovery, his eyes flashed a few times, and then he had a plan, so he sneered again and said, "Wei Shaoning, you took great pains to find materials for me, do you have a plan?"

Wei Shaoning, that is, the purple-faced young man shook his head again and again when he heard this, put on a very aggrieved appearance, and said: "Big brother hurt me when he said this, little brother heard that big brother won the first place in the smelting competition, don't you have the heart to congratulate him, and he specially found a congratulatory gift." ”

Nodding, a hint of imperceptible cunning flashed on Li Xunlian's face, "Okay, take it." But I can't accept this gift in vain, as a return gift, it's what you think of this sword. ”

The blue light of the Sumeru ring flashed, and a three-foot long sword with a black body appeared in Li Xunlian's hand. This sword is full of black light, and there is a lifelike jackdaw carved on the hilt, which is the Thousand Crow Sword that was overshadowed after killing Qing Lingzi that day.

The Thousand Crow Sword is a holy weapon, and as soon as this kind of return gift is struck, it will shock everyone.

Hu Wan is all good, but he also has flaws, that is, he is slightly greedy. At this moment, seeing Li Xunlian giving away this primary holy weapon casually, his heart seemed to be scratched in every way, and he was depressed.

pretended to cough twice, but found that Li Xunlian didn't look at him at all, after all, he was a newcomer who had just arrived, and in the end, Hu Wan could only shut up and secretly scolded Li Xunlian for being a big loser.

"Although this backfire wood is a high-grade smelting material, it is not worth exchanging with a holy sword, this kid's head must have been kicked by a donkey!"

As if sensing Hu Wan's thoughts, Li Xunlian winked at him, as if to say that we took a big advantage.

It's just that Hu Wan can't figure out how to think about it, where does this cheap take it......

Wei Shaoning held the Thousand Crow Sword in his hand, and a pair of Danfeng eyes couldn't help but look at it, revealing full of joy.

Beside him, Lu Heng also smacked his lips, obviously seeing that his master had taken advantage, he was also happy in his heart.

"It's a good crow sword, the only fly in the ointment is that this son is good at making knives, but it's nothing. Wei Shaoning whispered to himself, as he said, being good at making a sword does not mean that he can't use a sword, although he is not very clever, but looking at the younger generation in Kyushu, his swordsmanship is also firmly in the upper reaches.

As for the blade he holds, it is an intermediate holy weapon treasure knife called "Han Ru Knife", after all, he is also an inn boy, how can he not have a dazzling weapon.

"Damn, the whole Yicai fan. Hu Wan was not happy to see it, and muttered in a low voice.

Hu Wan is basically good in everything except for being a little greedy, if you want to find a little fault, it is that his mouth is not very good, and he always likes to babble and say something that he doesn't like.

At this moment, he is a little unable to eat grapes and say that grapes are sour, to be honest, who is not a rare treasure, although Wei Shaoning is the son of the inn, but he almost got a holy weapon for nothing, and everyone is happy in exchange.

The muttering was not particularly small, Wei Shaoning frowned slightly, obviously hearing it. However, he didn't vent it, but looked at Hu Wan and said with a smile: "This must be the personal inheritance of the second shopkeeper Xinna, big brother, you are really, don't introduce you." ”

Li Xunlian didn't care, introduced a fart, and made it look like you were a good person.

Seeing that Li Xunlian didn't speak, Wei Shaoning still didn't give up, and walked up to Hu Wan very familiarly, and said, "Since you are a disciple of the second shopkeeper, then you will be my second brother in the future, dare to ask the second brother's surname?"

"Don't call me second brother, I can't stand it. Hu Wan learned from Li Xunlian's tone and said coldly, but Li Xunlian was indifferent to Wei Shaoning because he understood that Wei Shaoning was a talent, and Hu Wan was still angry about the Thousand Crow Sword.

Of course, the word second brother doesn't sound very comfortable......

Wei Shaoning didn't care if he hit the wall, he laughed lightly, then said goodbye to the two, and left with Lu Heng.

The figures of the two quickly disappeared into the mountain path, but there was a faint laughter.

"Childe, is Li Xunlian embarrassed that stupid dog has the heart to stammer, or why did he give such a valuable gift in return with a cold attitude?"

"Who knows, it's just that he lost his wife and his soldiers today. But it's still a joke, it won't be long,"

"Childe, why did you say that new vulgar man is so arrogant, who do you think he is, it's really untidy!"

"It doesn't matter, what if you take advantage of it verbally, in the future, my son will slowly let him learn my methods. ”

"Childe ......"

The voice became more and more faint, until finally he couldn't hear it clearly, and Li Xunlian finally withdrew his gaze. Probably because of the strength of his body, he turned his eyes to Hu Wan and found that the latter still had a painful look on his face, and did not show the slightest anger.

This shows that Hu Wan did not hear the conversation between Wei Shaoning and Lu Heng, otherwise with his temper, he would have been furious.

"Brother, I said that you are not stupid, that is a holy weapon, just give it away?" Hu Wan was very dissatisfied, his friendship with Li Xunlian had reached the point where there was no need to hide it, so he did not shy away from it, and said directly: "To be honest, Lao Hu I like that Thousand Crow Sword very much." ”

Li Xunlian didn't speak, just looked at him and smiled, until Hu Wan laughed, and then replied: "You are good at making swords?"

"If you're not good at it, you won't be able to practice!" Hu Wan pouted angrily.

"Are you suitable for sword?" Li Xunlian asked with a smile again.

"What's the matter, if it's suitable for Lao Tzu, I just like it, I just want it, and it's not nice to see you give it to him!" Hu Wan simply put it away.

"Look at your little bit of interest. Li Xunlian shook his head and smiled, and said, "Don't worry, we won't lose." Do you know what this backfire wood does?"

After pondering for a moment, Hu Wan sneered, "Just such a short paragraph, maybe it can be of some use to return to the furnace for your Dragon Shadow Sword?"

"If you want me to say you're a very careful person sometimes. Li Xun glanced at him, stretched out his throat and said, "Do you want to raise the Golden Light Xuanwu Shield to another level?"

Hearing this, Hu Wan finally brightened up, and his bitter face turned into flattery in an instant, pinching his shoulders and beating his back, and he laughed endlessly.

If Li Xunlian didn't say it, he wouldn't have imagined it at all, after all, after the Golden Light Xuanwu Shield evolved from the Red Flame Xuanwu Shield, it had already turned out of the fire genus and turned into metal, which was different from the non-attribute of the Dragon Shadow Sword. So even if it is returned to the furnace, according to common sense, backfire wood is not very suitable for this shield, but who is Li Xunlian, this guy's performance in the smelting weapon competition proves his unconventional ability, since he said so, it must be confident.

Seeing Hu Wan's appearance, Li Xunlian naturally couldn't help but say a few words to him. At this point, the two are very similar, but whenever they seize a little opportunity, they will definitely spare no effort to ridicule each other, and they will never tire of it.

After a while, the sky gradually darkened, and Li Xunlian was tired for several days, but Hu Wan could easily let him go, dragged him to his residence, and then stuffed the golden light Xuanwu shield to Li Xunlian, and by the way, he also expressed his yearning for the Sumeru ring......

Li Xunlian was so sleepy that he casually went over, and then went back to his residence to rest.

There was nothing to say all night, and Li Xunlian woke up the next morning, pushed open the window and looked at it, the clouds and mist were hidden, and it was a foggy weather.

The cool mountain breeze poured in from the window, Li Xunlian took a few deep breaths, stretched his waist, and felt refreshed, and the end was extremely comfortable.

There have been too many things in the recent period, although it is not more than a month, but it seems to have experienced a year, this time I can finally have leisure, how can I not enjoy it.

In Li Xunlian's eyes, enjoyment is doing what he likes to do, and it doesn't matter whether the thing he likes is dangerous or tiring.

At present, he is preparing to enter the river again, and he is studying the inscriptions engraved on the stone pillars.

Last time, he was slapped by the big shopkeeper because of this matter, Li Xunlian still remembers it vividly, and this time he has a better memory, and he is ready to say hello to the big shopkeeper before leaving.

"The big shopkeeper will not let me go. With apprehension, Li Xunlian pushed open the door of the big shopkeeper's room, and after explaining his intentions, the answer he got was quite surprising.

"I walk with you. The big shopkeeper was meditating, and after that, he got up and walked out of the house......

Li Xunlian was stunned for a moment, and jumped up to follow.

I thought that with the support of the big shopkeeper, it should be smooth sailing along the way, not only did it not take much effort, but also enjoyed the majesty of the Nu River in the process of hurrying.

However, the truth is quite the opposite.

When he arrived at the riverside, the big shopkeeper waved his long sleeves and directly fanned Li Xunlian into the turbulent river, and he was the royal qi rising into the air and following comfortably behind.

Li Xunlian didn't know why at first, but gradually understood. The big shopkeeper knew that he was "immortal" about the inscription, and he would often slip there, crossing the river was dangerous, and he didn't have so much spare time to escort Li Xunlian every time, so he exercised Li Xunlian in the way of protecting him from the side, until Li Xunlian could reassure him.

Of course, the so-called reassurance is only that you can cross the river on your own without worrying about your life.

The so-called hard work pays off, after a few days of going back and forth like this, I don't know if Li Xunlian is used to struggling in the turbulent current or how, although he is still embarrassed to cross the river by himself, but after all, he no longer has to worry about his life.

So the big shopkeeper no longer followed Li Xunlian, and Li Xunlian didn't need to ask for instructions when he went out, usually going out early in the morning and returning in the evening after three days, which was used to it.

Half a month passed in a blink of an eye, during which Master Qingjue came to a letter, in which he said that the demon clan did commit the Rakshasa Gate again, but the characters sent were still some minions, and they were not vulnerable in front of the power of Buddhism, but there was one thing that was very annoying, that is, the demons were not very skilled, but the speed of escape was very amazing.

However, Master Qingjue also indicated that after summarizing after the war, they came up with some methods, and if the demon clan came again, they would definitely be able to capture a few alive. Moreover, the demon clan also opened his mouth this time, and still released cruel words in the human language: "The bald donkey is arrogant, and when the demon returns to the tribe, it will attract the strong to come and wait!"

This is the original words of the demon clan, and Master Qingjue described it word for word in the letter, which shows how honest this person is......

Since they weren't captured alive, this letter has no practical significance, and the only thing worth noting is that the demon clan calls itself a "return tribe", which means that they have a stronghold somewhere in Kyushu, but Kyushu is so big, it is even more difficult to find a stronghold.

Because he needed to wait for the Buddha's move, Li Xunlian still had nothing to do, repeating the previous steps all day long, and he was never tired of it.

Of course, Li Xunlian once had an agreement with Emperor Qingxiao, and he naturally would not forget it. Because of the immersion in the inscription and the grass grew in his heart, he didn't want to go over for a while, so he wrote a letter to inform Qingxiao Huang, lying that there were some urgent matters inside the inn, and he could only leave until it was resolved, and he looked at Haihan.

Qingxiao Emperor's reply was very generous, to the following effect:

The imperial court has announced Li Xunlian's culpability, but Li Xunlian escaped, although he is nowhere to be found now, but he will eventually be caught.

This explanation not only temporarily preserved the prestige of the imperial court, but also freed up time for Li Xunlian, but if he wants to be successful, Li Xunlian still has to have the day when he is "arrested and brought to justice".

On this day, the dark clouds were overwhelming, the gray sky seemed to fall at any time, the thunder exploded from time to time, and the occasional lightning streaked through, even the surface of the river seemed to be boiling.

Li Xunlian sat in the center of the top of the stone pillar with an excited expression, ignoring the bad weather.

The perimeter was still full of black beetle crawlies, but he also turned a blind eye. It's not that I'm used to their existence, and after a few attempts to kill these disgusting things, I'm depressed to find that there is an endless stream of them, and I don't know where they come from. In desperation, Li Xunlian could only comfort himself, if he couldn't extinguish it, let it go, anyway, they were no threat.

Putting aside these miscellaneous matters, Li Xunlian has been in a good mood recently. During this time, he had a good understanding of Mingtu, and he had already faintly glimpsed a trace of the doorway.

However, at this moment, his excitement did not come from this, but when he crossed the river in the early morning, there were sudden signs of breakthrough in his body!
