Chapter 8: Extinction
After the Jiuyang Divine Skill, Li Xuan took five subordinate generals all the way to the west, since a large number of Emei disciples appeared in Zhuwu Lianhuanzhuang, it must not be far from the day when the six major factions besieged Guangmingding, this grand event that determines the future pattern of the Central Plains martial arts, whether it is public or private, Li Xuan has enough reasons to intervene, the status of the leader of the Ming Sect will be related to the progress of his ultimate task in this plane, no matter what, he must master this huge resource.
"My lord, it's a member of the Emei faction." In the evening, when Li Xuan and his party were preparing to camp, they happened to meet the Emei faction who were also preparing to camp.
Li Xuan raised his eyes and saw that Zhou Zhiruo, Ding Minjun and other Emei disciples who were familiar with each other were there, and there were also a lot of unfamiliar faces, it should be that the follow-up of the Emei faction had arrived, but one of the soap-robed old nuns had attracted Li Xuan's attention.
The appearance of the old nun is not special, a pair of white eyebrows are slightly drooping, but there is no ordinary monk's kind eyebrows, but with an unspeakable anger, not many words, but there is a frightening momentum between the demeanor, and the eyes are even more shining between the opening and closing, showing a good cultivation attainment.
"Master, this person is the mad sword boy - Li Xuan, who had previously made a lot of nonsense in Jiading Mansion, wanting to understand the sharpness of the master's Heavenly Sword." Li Xuan could find them, and they naturally found Li Xuan and his party, Ding Minjun's eyes flashed, and he leaned into his ear and whispered.
In fact, even if Ding Minjun doesn't need to say much, Extinction also perceives the extraordinaryness of the arrival, all masters, most of them can feel the breath of the same kind from the other party, when Li Xuan's eyes fell on him, Extinction naturally felt it, his eyes were like electricity, and he swept towards Li Xuan.
"What a young hero!" The moment he saw Li Xuan, the eyes of the extinction were full of light, he thought that among the younger generation, Wudang Song Qingshu should be the best, but now it seems that the ability of this mad sword boy in front of him is probably far above Song Qingshu, the big disciple of Wudang, and he turned his head to Zhou Zhiruo beside him and said: "Zhiruo, go and invite this mad knife boy to come over, and think about meeting this young man for a while." ”
Zhou Zhiruo's bright eyes flashed with a strange color, the exterminator is too arrogant, although there are many masters in the martial arts, but there are few who can be put in her eyes, even Song Qingshu, who met during the day, is only because of Wudang's face, and treats each other politely, but between the words, there is some arrogance of some predecessors, but now he is so solemn and invited, not to mention the younger generation, even the predecessors in the martial arts do not have many of this honor.
Although he knew that Li Xuan was extraordinary, he never thought that he could be so valued by his master, and there was a faint sense of joy in his heart, Zhou Zhiruo nodded, got up and walked towards the place where Li Xuan and his party landed.
"Brother Li, the family teacher exterminator wants to ask Brother Li to talk about it." Coming to Li Xuan and his party, Zhou Zhiruo said.
"Oh?" Li Xuan glanced at Extinction with some surprise, and then nodded and said, "It's okay." ”
The extinction in the original book is indeed a bit annoying, taking personal grudges too seriously, and having a paranoid temperament, very unlikable, but as the head of a faction, the Emei faction is indeed a lot bigger in her hands, and the momentum faintly catches up with Shaolin and Wudang, in terms of martial arts, although it is not the top, it should belong to the same level as the two elders of Xuanming, but the sword in her hand is enough to make her not afraid of any master in the world except Zhang Sanfeng.
Since the ultimate goal is to overthrow Mongol rule, then Li Xuan must unify the forces that qiē can pull together, and the Emei faction is second only to Shaolin Wudang among the six major factions, and it is naturally also among them, if according to the plot, after the extinction and death, Zhou Zhiruo is relatively better to start, but the Emei who lost extinction, at least in a short period of time, has no current power, no matter how good Zhou Zhiruo's talent is, but there is no deterrent power of extinction, it is not enough to deter Emei and the extermination of the pro-disciples.
After thinking about it, Li Xuan had already come to the extinction under the leadership of Zhou Zhiruo, retracted his thoughts, smiled and arched his hand: "After entering Li Xuan at the end of the school, I have seen Shitai." ”
Looking at Li Xuan, who was respectful, but neither humble nor arrogant, and had no ordinary back to see him when he saw him, a flash of appreciation flashed in his eyes, as a figure in today's martial arts, his prestige is second only to Wudang real person Zhang Sanfeng, and even enough to compete with the abbot of Shaolin, although the extinction character is obedient, it is not as jealous and jealous as He Taichong, if Li Xuan and others generally see him submissive, it will make her unhappy.
"Li Shaoxia doesn't have to be polite, during this time, Li Shaoxia has fought against the Tartars many times and promoted the righteousness of my Han people, and the old body also admires it." Extinction nodded, stretched out his hand, and motioned for Li Xuan to sit down and speak.
Li Xuan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If there is a choice, Li Xuan is not willing to use this method to save people." ”
"Oh?" Extinction Bai Mei Yixuan, looked at Li Xuan with some surprise, the opinions of Li Xuan on the rivers and lakes are also mixed, some people praise Li Xuan's righteous deeds, and some people are too murderous by Li Xuan, and they are afraid that they will not die well, but it is the first time that they know that Li Xuan has such an idea.
"Li's ancestor used to be a family of generals, and his perspective on problems is somewhat different from ordinary people." Li Xuan smiled slightly, looked at the exterminator Taidao, who was a little puzzled: "I wait for the martial artists, the purpose of picking up weapons is to one day, to be able to put down the sword, if this world is still the world of my Han people, if my Han people can reproduce the majesty of the Han and Tang Dynasties, it is to put down the sharp blade in my hand, what does it matter if I am an ordinary farmer?" ”
This remark was already thought about by Li Xuan, although the extermination acted radically and attached great importance to personal grudges, but in the overall situation, he hated the Mongols very much, and now when he heard this remark, his eyes couldn't help but shine, and he couldn't help but look at Li Xuan a little higher.
"Further west on this trip, it is the sphere of influence of the Mingjiao General Altar, but I don't know what the purpose of Li Shaoxia's trip is?" After talking for a long time, Extinction finally asked the doubts in his heart.
"At the next destination, I'm afraid I'm going to be on the same road as Shitai." Li Xuan smiled slightly, and did not hide his purpose.
"Oh? Li Shaoxia's trip is also to get rid of the Ming Sect? Extinction's eyes lit up, and he looked at Li Xuan sharply.
"It's not killing, Li Xuan is here, he just wants to stop the fight and keep the last trace of strength of my Han people." Facing the cold gaze of Extermination, Li Xuan was unaware and said abruptly.
"Oh? Forgive the old man for being dull, but I don't know how the young man wants to stop fighting? The light in his eyes flickered, and he looked at Li Xuan coldly, there was no longer any peace before, there was only a touch of anger that could not be dissolved.
"The six major factions besieging Guangmingding, in my opinion, is tantamount to fighting in the same room, now Mongolia is powerful, and has been eyeing my Central Plains martial arts, this time the six major factions besieged Guangmingding, no matter who wins and who loses, the loss is the strength of my Han family, besides, even if it wins, it is also a tragic victory, if the Mongols take this opportunity to send troops, to my Central Plains martial arts, is the real catastrophe, since the master is bent on recovering my Han family, why do you want to do such a painful thing for relatives and fast enemies?"
"Enough!" Extinction suddenly shouted, and said coldly: "What Li Shaoxia said is not unreasonable, but the enmity between my Emei and Mingjiao has long been incompatible, and it is definitely not a personal grudge that can be resolved. ”
"The teacher has the insistence of the teacher, but Li also has the principle of Li, this trip to the bright top, Li is imperative, he will see each other in the future, and he must try the sharpness of the sword with the steel knife in his hand." Li Xuan took a deep breath and said slowly.
"Zhiruo, send off." Extinction's face flashed blue, snorted coldly, and waved his hand.
"Brother Li, Emei has a long-standing grudge with Mingjiao, and the old man respects Mingjiao a lot, and if you want to resolve it, I'm afraid it will be difficult." Sending Li Xuan out of the Emei faction camp, Zhou Zhiruo couldn't help but say to Li Xuan.
"Is it man-made, and in this world, what can be done must be done." Li Xuan shook his head and smiled, he also knew that the encirclement of the six major factions had been completed, as the initiator of the whole thing, whether it was for personal face or the overall situation, it was impossible for the extinction to be moved by his own words, and he gave up the siege of Guangmingding, the reason why he said it now was also to pave the way for the future, not to completely resolve the enmity between the Mingjiao and the Emei faction, but to leave a shadow in the heart of the extinction, and to be familiar, at least not to shout and kill as soon as they met in the future, and also leave some room for both sides, at least in the heart of extinction, Have a position for yourself.
"Brother Li, little sister can only send you here." Outside the camp, Zhou Zhiruo looked at Li Xuan apologetically.
"It doesn't matter." Li Xuan waved his hand, and was about to say goodbye and leave, his brows suddenly frowned, he stretched out his hand, and in Zhou Zhiruo's exclamation, he hugged her slender waist and pulled it back, and at the same time pulled out the knife with his backhand, and a sharp knife burst out of the air, and in the silent snowy night, a piercing buzz sounded.
"Huh~?" A feminine and strange voice sounded under the night sky: "The kid is so handsome, if I hadn't dodged quickly, I would have almost died under your hands, but I have never heard of you among the male disciples of the Emei faction?" ”
The voice is erratic, as if coming from all directions, and the terrifying tone makes people listen a little creepy.
Li Xuan raised his eyebrows, seeing that the extinction and the others were alarmed by the movement here, and rushed towards this side, he simply let go of Zhou Zhiruo, held the knife in one hand, and said loudly to the void: "Blue Winged Bat King Wei smiled? You are also a martial arts senior, a generation of masters, dare to show up? ”
"Hehe, don't provoke me, kid, although the ability to exterminate that old nun is not very good, but the Heavenly Sword is a rare magic weapon, and the old bat has to avoid its edge, haha, let's go!" As he spoke, Li Xuan keenly caught a black shadow flashing and disappearing in an instant, and he couldn't help but be speechless in his heart, although the "Yellow Emperor's Heart Sutra" was wonderful, most of the talks were about internal strength or combat know-how, and he rarely touched on light skills, and he was really helpless in the face of Wei Yixiao, a peerless master of light skills.
"Zhiruo, how's it going?" The exterminator dodged a few times, and had already come to Zhou Zhiruo, looking at her with a concerned face.
"Don't worry, master, it doesn't matter." Zhou Zhiruo shook her head, then looked at Li Xuan and said, "Thanks to Brother Li, who came to the rescue and repelled Wei Yixiao." ”
The exterminator naturally saw what happened just now, although he didn't think much of Li Xuan's previous remarks, but this favor had to continue, nodded at Li Xuan, but didn't say much, and returned to the camp with a group of disciples.
