The cold wind whirred.

Taking advantage of the white moonlight of the night, Cao Jun slowly slid down the rope.

This cliff is a little different from the one on the other side of Siguo Cliff.

The entire course is almost 90 degrees, with no point of impact, except for the occasional rock pine sticking out from the edge of the cliff.

Like a nimble ape, Cao Jun moved down little by little.

After Yue Buqun jumped down from this side, the people who participated in the siege of the Songshan faction instantly cut off their plan to go down and salvage Yue Buqun's body, which showed the difficulty.

In addition to the deceased Feng Qingyang, only Cao Jun, who had a spiritual aura to protect his body, was sure to search for the evil sword spectrum back.

The reason why I chose to start at night is naturally because I don't want outsiders to know.

Lin Pingzhi is a disciple of the Huashan faction, if he cultivates the sword spectrum to ward off evil spirits, it is tantamount to adding a strong boost to the current Huashan faction, and it can also be regarded as a big step forward for Cao Jun's revitalization of the Huashan faction in the future.

An hour later, Cao Jun had used up two ropes.

He tied a new rope to a protruding rock pine and was sitting on it meditating to regain his strength.

According to his estimates, he must have descended to the middle of the cliff by this moment.

The energy progress around is only a few meters.

In the vast darkness of the night, the scenery below is like a giant beast in a green coat, with a huge mouth waiting for its prey to throw itself into the net, which adds a bit of gloom to the atmosphere.

Except for the sound of the wind, almost no other sound can be heard.

After resting for a quarter of an hour, Cao Jun continued to climb downward.

It wasn't until the early hours of the morning that we reached the bottom of the cliff.

Different from the Siguo Cliff, the bottom of this side is covered with fragmented rock pines, black and white, high and shallow, plus the hazy light in the early morning, so that Cao Jun has a feeling that a mouse pulls a turtle and has nowhere to put its mouth.

He simply found a secluded place to meditate, waited for the dawn and then began to move.

Two hours later, the sky was faintly bright.

The progress of the energy has not affected Cao Jun's search work.

He reflexively climbed to a slightly higher place, raised his hand and looked around, and found a total of three suspicious spots.

Yue Buqun jumped down from the top of the cliff, obviously not landing in a straight line.

Counting the arc and the resistance of the wind, it should be within a radius of tens of meters.

After deciding on the plan, Cao Jun began the search work.

Finally, the body of Yue Buqun, who was smashed into a puddle of flesh, was found in the second suspicious location.

There were still a lot of insects climbing on the corpse, but fortunately it was winter, and there was no smell.

Cao Jun just glanced at it, immediately tore off a piece of cloth and wrapped it around his mouth and nose, and found a wooden stick from the side, picked out Yue Buqun's clothes, and picked out a brocade silk and a thread-bound book from it.

There are some small patterns and sword moves recorded on the brocade silk, which should be a sword spectrum to ward off evil spirits, and as for the book, it is one of the nine merits of the Huashan faction, the Zixia secret book.

Previously, he secretly handed the transcript to Ling Hu Chong, who was going down the mountain, and the original was still kept on his body.

Cao Jun has now learned Baoyuanjin, one of the three major internal skills of the Huashan faction, and this Zixia cheats is of little significance to him, but it is naturally of great significance to the current Huashan faction.

If you are not the head of the house, you are not allowed to cultivate the Zixia cheats.

If the restriction that only the head of the sect can cultivate the Zixia secret book is broken, it must be that in a few years, the second-rate masters of the Huashan faction will multiply several times.

Cao Jun covered up Yue Buqun's body with gravel and buried it hastily in place.

Stopping and stopping, we finally returned to the grove at the top of the cliff in the early morning.

"Senior Brother Cao, can you get something?"

Lin Pingzhi was still guarding it carefully, seeing that his eyes were red, obviously he hadn't slept all night.

Cao Jun nodded to him, and replied a little tiredly: "Let's go back and talk about it!" ”

After the two walked through the grove, they paused for a moment in front of the thatched houses, Cao Jun paused, and suddenly shouted loudly inside: "Shi Niang, you are now the acting head of the Huashan faction, and now many matters need to be decided by you, and I also ask Shi Niang to mourn and change and come out to preside over the overall situation." ”

After a long time, a cold response came from inside the wooden house, "I have no intention of doing anything in the martial arts, the position of the head of this generation, I will pass it on to you now, the future Huashan faction, whether it will continue to decline, or be lucky enough to revitalize in your hands, it has nothing to do with me, except for Shan'er, I don't want to see anyone." ”

As soon as Ning Zhong's words fell, he threw out a master token from the wooden house.

After Cao Jun took the token, he quietly saluted Ning Zhong outside the door, and then returned to Qianshan with Lin Pingzhi.

According to the records of the Huashan faction, the succession ceremony of the head of the family must first worship the ancestors, that is, the tablets of the previous heads of the Huashan faction.

Later, a heroic post was widely published, inviting many martial arts sects to come to watch the ceremony.

After gaining the recognition of other martial arts sects, this head is worthy of his name.

However, at this time, the Huashan faction was in turmoil, and three months later, the Wuyue Sword Sect would gather in Songshan, so there was no need to do more.

Besides, he is only a substitute leader, and the recognition of fellow martial artists is not important, he only needs to pass the review within the door.

In today's Huashan faction, besides him, who else is qualified to be the acting head?

All resistance has been removed, and Cao Jun is not hiding his strength in a pretending obscenity, so he naturally deserves to do it.

After returning to Qianshan, Cao Jun immediately convened all the disciples of the Huashan faction to discuss the matter.

In addition to the fifty or sixty Huashan disciples of the second generation, there are also four people who live in the Siguo Cliff Sword Sect, and after the Ningzhong is not in the world, these four people are now the strongest combat power except for Cao Jun.

In addition, the heads of various departments were also summoned to the head hall.

There were more than 80 people in total.

These people are all the teams currently in Cao Jun's hands.

Cao Jun sat alone on the top, and next to him sat the four members of the Sword Sect.

Its disciples stood on both sides, and these people either looked at Cao Jun enthusiastically or coldly, waiting for the first order issued by Cao Jun, the head of the sect.

"Pass on the order of the head of the sect, the sword sect qi sect is originally a family, whether it focuses on sword training, or focuses on qi training, it will be based on their own choice, the sect will not interfere, and the four uncles will return to Huashan, and their status is the elder of the Huashan faction, and they will assist the head of the sect to manage the affairs of the sect in the future."

"Pass on the master's order, the library will be officially open to all disciples, including but not limited to the Wuyue Sword Technique, the Sword Sect Qi Sect Sword Technique, and one of the nine merits of the Zixia Secret Book, among which the cultivation of the Zixia Secret Book must be approved by the master, and all disciples should take it as their responsibility to improve their strength as soon as possible and assist the head of the sect to Guangda Huashan Sect."

"Pass on the order of the head of the sect, the grievances between the former head Yue Buqun and the Hengshan faction, I will go to explain to the Hengshan faction later, the current Huashan faction is still in an alliance with the Hengshan faction, and before the new head of the Hengshan faction comes out, we have the obligation and responsibility to protect the safety of the senior sisters and sisters of the Hengshan faction."

"Please also ask Mrs. Shi to put aside her prejudices for the time being, and face the matter of the Wuyue merger faction together in three months!"

In the hall of the head of the sect, in addition to Feng Buping and Cheng Buxian and the other four people who are qualified to sit on chairs, there is also the only elder of the Hengshan faction, and the old nun who was also in charge of protecting Yilin before.

She is currently the only one of the Hengshan faction's highest combat strength who is not injured, and she was also invited by Cao Jun to sit below to watch the ceremony.

"Humph!"

In the face of Cao Jun's initiative to send kindness to the Hengshan faction, the nun responded with a cold snort.

After Cao Jun announced several orders in a row, the disciples below directly blew up the nest, and they got together for a while to talk about each other.

A moment later, a disciple was elected to speak, "Master Cao, I don't know if Senior Brother Ling Hu Chong is now considered a disciple of my Huashan faction?" In the future, when we face Linghu Chong, how will we deal with ourselves? ”

Cao Jun looked at this person expressionlessly, and immediately replied:

"Ling Hu Chong is still my senior brother of the Huashan faction, he was previously expelled from the Huashan faction by the head of Yue for befriending the people in the Demon Sect and getting involved in the evil sword spectrum, and now the matter of the evil sword spectrum has come to light, and there are many suspicious things about befriending the demon sect demons, which cannot be used as a reason to expel the Huashan faction, and now I announce that Ling Hu Chong is allowed to return to the Huashan faction."

"If you meet Linghu Chong in the future, please help me with a message, he will always be the senior brother of the Huashan faction, and the mountain gate of the Huashan faction will always be open to him."

“…… Senior Brother Cao is wise. ”

"Senior Brother Linghu Chong can return to the division!"

Cao Jun's several orders were all based on strengthening the strength of the Huashan faction, and he quickly won the support of all his disciples.

After the first meeting, Cao Jun summoned Lin Pingzhi to the study.

"This is your Lin family's sword spectrum to ward off evil spirits, but after you get the original manuscript, you still need to hand over a manuscript to Huashan, as for whether to learn or not, you have to make up your own mind."

Cao Jun handed over the brocade silk he had obtained from the bottom of the cliff to Lin Pingzhi.

After the latter took it excitedly, he quickly opened it and browsed it, and fell into a tangle for a while.

"If you want to practice this skill, you must first go from the palace, so that's how it is...... This is the reason why the old ancestor did not allow our descendants of the Lin family to cultivate the true evil sword spectrum. ”

"But if that's the case, when will our Lin family's revenge be avenged?"

Lin Pingzhi's face was blue and red for a while, and after the pestle was in place for a long time, he bowed heavily to Cao Jun and withdrew from the study.

Cao Jun sighed in the back, how to choose, it depends on him.

The sword spectrum to ward off evil spirits is his Lin family's thing, and after going around in a big circle, it still returned to Lin Pingzhi's hands.

Cao Jun has the Dugu Nine Sword and the Spiritual Power Gat, so he is not interested in the evil sword spectrum, and it is difficult for ordinary people to refuse this temptation to become a peerless master.

However, subconsciously, Cao Jun still hoped that Lin Pingzhi would cultivate the sword spectrum to ward off evil spirits.

This is also the reason why he has always insisted on forming a good relationship with the other party before.

After Feng Qingyang's death, the current Huashan faction lacks a peerless master, and Lin Pingzhi is likely to take over Feng Qingyang's position and become a trump card under Cao Jun.

As for how and when to use it, that's his business.

If you give something, you will get it.

Pay a sword book to ward off evil spirits, you will gain a peerless master, anyway, it is not your own chickens that are cut, this transaction is not a loss.

After finishing the meeting with Lin Pingzhi, Cao Jun went to visit Yue Lingshan in the bedroom again, and informed the other party that Ning Zhong was living in seclusion in the back mountain forest, so that she could visit her mother at any time.

By the time all this was done, it was already dusk.

Suddenly, a disciple came in and said, "Senior Brother Cao...... Oh no, senior brother in charge, everyone in the Hengshan faction insists on going down the mountain, we can't stop it, how to deal with it? ”

Cao Jun was taken aback, "Where are they now?" ”

"The disciples of the Hengshan Sect made a coffin on the mountain, carrying the body of Master Dingxian, and the injured elders of the Hengshan Sect came down the mountain an hour ago, and I saw that the senior brother in charge had been busy, so I did not come to tell him."

"You go down first, and tell the disciples of the Huashan Sect to stay on the mountain and use it well, and I will deal with this matter."

Cao Jun also began to struggle for a while.

After the head of the Hengshan faction in the original book was killed by Yue Buqun, the disciples of the Hengshan faction were also attacked by the people of the Demon Sect, and most of them were killed and injured.

This time going down the mountain, there are many dangers!

Do you want to chase it?

Cao Jun hesitated for a moment, and immediately thought of the little nun Yilin.

"No, the little nun is an important person to fulfill Tian Boguang's last wish, she can't afford to lose, I have to chase after her."

Cao Jun quickly made up his mind, and after leading a fast horse in the mountain, he chased him down the mountain.

The mountain road in Huashan is steep, and it is almost impossible to ride a horse on the mountain, so you can only lead the horse.

But if you reach the foot of the mountain, you can't catch up with the people of the Hengshan faction, so you can only ride horses.

This is not the first time Cao Jun has descended the mountain.

I came in the middle of the night to look for a hiking bag, and I walked through it once.

After Cao Jun arrived at the foot of the mountain, he still did not find the people of the Hengshan faction.

On the contrary, he was a little anxious.

At this time, it was already dark, and Cao Jun could only find a farmhouse nearby to stay, but fortunately, the head of the Huashan faction was very easy to use.

The foot of Huashan is almost the sphere of influence of the Huashan faction, and the farmers, hunters and medicine farmers here basically cultivate the fields of the Huashan faction, and they have to pay rent to the Huashan faction every year.

After resting for the night, Cao Jun mounted his horse and continued to pursue.

Between the foot of Huashan Pai Mountain and the first town, there are still fifty or sixty miles, and it can be regarded as the scope of Huashan Pai here.

If you are out of town.

The orders of the Huashan faction are a little difficult to use.

One man and one horse, facing the morning glow, chased forward for more than ten miles, and suddenly found the bodies of several female disciples of the Hengshan Sect on the side of the road.

Cao Jun immediately dismounted and inspected.

They were all wounded by bows and crossbows.

In the world of Xiaoao Jianghu, in addition to the imperial court, only people in the Demon Sect will use this kind of long-range weapon.

"Is it really the Demon Cult?"

Cao Jun was surprised and delighted, happy that he finally discovered the whereabouts of the disciples of the Hengshan faction, and worried, the scene of the Demon Sect slaughtering the disciples of the Hengshan faction in the original book still happened.

The pursuit of the whereabouts of the pursuit has been facing the mountain road, and after walking for a few miles, it suddenly turns to the side and turns into a small road.

In a hurry, he finally caught up with the Hengshan faction in front of a village.

It's just that their current situation is very bad at the moment, and they are surrounded by people from the Demon Cult in a village.

Cao Jun abandoned his horse and walked on foot, following cautiously behind him.

When they reached the outskirts of the village, they jumped directly onto a big tree and observed the situation inside through the shade of the branches.

The people in the Demon Sect are all wearing red cloaks, and the costumes are very unique, and there are about 200 people.

Except for a few disciples who were on guard on the periphery, most of the men and horses were gathered in a large courtyard.

The original owner of this courtyard should be a landlord, but at this moment he is involved in the battle of martial arts, and the ending of the whole family is probably a little bad.

A shout quickly woke up the pensive Cao Jun.

"Listen, the people of the Hengshan faction, you have been surrounded, either hand over the female disciples for us to have fun, or they will resist to the end, and finally die inside, whether you live or die is all in your choice, I am not afraid to tell you in advance, if you have fun, it is not impossible to take you as a concubine, from now on to bring a doll to Lao Tzu at home, away from the rights and wrongs of the rivers and lakes, isn't it beautiful."

In front of the courtyard, the two deacons of the Demon Sect made a lot of nonsense, and their words were filthy, and those Demon Sect disciples next to them became excited after hearing this.

In the courtyard, at the same time, there was also the angry scolding of the Hengshan faction.

"Demon Sect demons, don't be rampant, this is at the foot of Huashan Mountain, you are so unscrupulous, how can the Huashan faction, which is also a member of the Wuyue Sword Sect, let you go?"

"The disciples of Songshan Taishan and Hengshan Sect who left before are also not far away, if you wait for them to come back to help, be careful to close the door and beat the dog!"

Based on the accent, Cao Jun quickly identified that it was an elder of the Hengshan faction who spoke up this time.

It's just that they were all injured before, and they were in a hurry to go down the mountain, and they didn't have time to recover from their injuries.

However, among the female disciples of the Hengshan Sect who had fallen on the side of the road before, Yilin's body was not found, which made Cao Jun breathe a sigh of relief.

The Demon Sect is also known as the Sun and Moon God Cult, headed by the sect leader, under the sect leader is the deputy sect leader, followed by the elders, followed by the Dharma protector, and under the Dharma protector, there are hall masters and deacons everywhere.

Unexpectedly, the current Huashan faction has declined to this point, and most of the people in the Demon Sect have come here, obviously not taking the Huashan faction dozens of miles away in their eyes.

"Hahaha! Are you scared when we are? ”

"Your Wuyue Sword Sect is fake benevolence and righteousness, and you usually keep talking about the same spirit, this time in the Huashan Sect for a sword spectrum to ward off evil spirits, we have already learned that the colleagues of the Songshan Sect will come to save you?"

"I'm afraid I'm thinking too much, right? They escaped from us only yesterday, and most of them were killed and wounded, so how can they save you? ”

"As for the Huashan faction? Yue Buqun is dead, Ning Nuxia has retired, I heard that the current head of the Huashan faction is only a second-generation disciple, he is a mud bodhisattva who crosses the river and is difficult to protect himself, how can he have the strength to go down the mountain to save you? ”

"Don't talk nonsense with them, I have a lot of spring festivals here, and I will shoot them into it with a rocket, and in a while, these little nuns are afraid that the heat will be unbearable, and they will strip naked, and I will rush in again and be the groom directly......"

The words that follow are a bit filthy.

The female disciples and elders of the Hengshan Sect had never seen such a formation, and they were directly defeated in the mouth cannon, and soon there was no sound.

Cao Jun waited outside for a while, and had already estimated the current situation.

When the Demon Cult launched an offensive later, he was taking advantage of the chaos to rush in.

There are many disciples of the Demon Sect, and Cao Jun is also confident that he can kill seven in and seven out inside.

The only thing that made him jealous was the opponent's crossbowman, which was specially used to deal with martial arts masters, specializing in all kinds of disobedience.

"When the time came, the crossbowmen gathered quickly, wrapped the spring supper on cotton wool, and shot it into the door and window...... Be careful with me, this thing is precious, and when you become the groom, you can remember Lao Tzu's favor. ”

The Demon Cultist shouted outside for a while, quickly losing patience and preparing for a wave of strong attacks.
