Immortal Mountain, Midnight Valley, Hall.

…………

As soon as Ling Wuxin entered the hall, he saw a man in a robe sitting on the first chair on the left hand side of the hall, closing his eyes and meditating.

Ling Wuxin had just taken two steps forward when the man's eyes suddenly opened, and then he turned his head to see that it was Ling Wuxin who had come in. He immediately stood up, covered the sword in his hand, stood in front of his heart with one palm, bowed his head and said, "The mountain people are not guests, I have seen the Lord of Linggu."

"Brother No, you're polite, you're polite, don't dare to be it."

Ling Wuxin walked quickly in front of the guest and gave a fist salute.

Ling Wuxin beckoned the guest to sit down, and at the same time ordered his subordinates to serve tea.

"Brother No, try my tea, which is brewed from the leaves of a strange tree in this Peerless Mountain. You can't drink it in ordinary places. ”

Ling Wuxin happily pointed to the tea that had just been served.

Hearing this, Buke suddenly stood up. He said to Ling Wuxin: "Lord Linggu, thank you, but the mountain people have important things to do, and now they are really not in the mood to taste tea, even the Nine Heavens Qiong Jelly is difficult to swallow!!"

Without waiting for Ling Wuxin to ask, Buke continued: "I came to visit the Linggu Lord this time, because the family teacher asked me to ask the Linggu Lord for something, and I hope that the Linggu Lord can help."

Ling Wuxin hurriedly stood up and hugged his fists and said: "Brother Xingyou is a generation of grandmasters, because of the long distance, I rarely go to visit him, and now Master Xingyou can still think of me if he has something, it is an honor in the next, if you have something to say, please say it directly, but if you can help, I Ling Wuxin is not to be excused!!"

"Thank you Linggu Master, the mountain people have thanked the family master for their ancestors, it's like this........."

Buke suddenly walked quickly in front of Ling Wuxin, lowered his head and said something quickly in a very low and low voice.

The attendant at the door of the hall only saw that Buke's mouth was moving up and down rapidly, but he couldn't hear what he was saying.

I saw that Ling Wuxin's originally calm face slowly changed.

At first, his eyebrows were furrowed, and then his face became more and more solemn, and after he finished speaking, he raised his head and straightened up.

Only then did he realize that Ling Wuxin's face had turned blue and purple at some point. Obviously angry tight.

"Bastard!!"

"Smack-"

Ling Wuxin shouted a sentence as he slapped his palm heavily on the wooden table.

Buke said: "Lord Linggu, the family teacher feels that this matter is very important, and feels that this matter also has some connection with you, so he didn't let me inform the other sects, and came here directly, I only hope that Lord Linggu can lend a hand and help us."

After saying this, Ling Wuxin seemed to have just reacted from his anger.

Hearing this, Ling Wuxin hurriedly said, "Don't worry!! If you don't tell me, the old man will not have anything to do with you when he knows about it, and I will definitely get involved in this matter. ”

Ling Wuxin had obviously heard something that made him upset, and he had already ignored every inch when he spoke, and now he was an old man.

Buke looked at Ling Wuxin, shook his head, and returned to his seat, "As long as the Ling Gu Lord agrees to help with this matter, the family master and all the disciples of the Taiyi Sect will be grateful!" ”

"Don't worry, in this way, you came from afar, and go to rest first, I want to think about it, and I will talk to Brother Buke in detail tomorrow, what do you think?" Ling Wuxin stood up and said.

"Then there is the Lord of Laoling Valley, and the mountain man also has a big stone in his heart at this time, and the mountain man will go to rest first."

As he spoke, he got up and walked out, and when the person at the door saw it, he immediately led the way.

After the guest left, Ling Wuxin's face, which had just eased up, became angry again.

As he sat down, he slammed his fist on the table.

…………

…………

After a while, Ling Wuxin raised his head and instructed the disciples outside the door, "Go and call the mad manager, your senior brother and the second senior brother!!"

Although the disciples outside the door didn't know what was going on, looking at Ling Wuxin's face and the tone in which he spoke, they also understood that Lord Gu was in anger at this time, so he hurriedly responded and hurried forward to find someone.

…………

…………

Without half a pillar of incense, the Wild Wolf and the senior brother among the disciples of Ling Ye Valley, Zhang Shang, and the second senior brother, Wu Tong, arrived in the hall one after another.

"Master, what's wrong? I heard them say you're angry, what's wrong? As the manager, the mad wolf took the lead in asking at this time.

"Kogami, go close the door."

After Ling Wuxin saw them coming, he asked them to close the door first.

"Yes, Master."

Zhang Shang answered as he went to close the door, and then came back and stood in the center of the hall with the wolf.

…………

…………

Ling Wuxin slowly stood up.

first exhaled slowly, then slowly walked up to the three of them, and asked in a very small voice, "Do you know this person Gu Qihao?"

"I know!!"

The wolf replied.

After all, the mad wolf was much older than the two disciples, and Ling Wuxin usually told the mad wolf some things about his early years, while Zhang Shang and Wu Tong had only faintly heard Ling Wuxin mention it, but they didn't know much about the reason.

“……… Wild wolf, you can talk to the two of them briefly........."

As he spoke, Ling Wuxin walked to the side where he had just sat and closed his eyes to recuperate.

"Wolf understands!!"

While answering Ling Wuxin, the mad wolf briefly told Ling Wuxin about his past.

…………

After listening to the wolf's story, Ling Wuxin's eldest disciple Zhang Shang said casually: "Haha, in the early years, the master lived so freely."

I just wanted to continue, but seeing that Ling Wuxin's eyes were closed tightly and his face was solemn, he closed his mouth in amusement.

"Master, is there any news from the second master?" Wild Wolf asked.

Hearing the wolf's inquiry, Ling Wuxin opened his eyes and sighed, "You guys sit down first." ”

"Yes!!"

…………

After the three of them sat down, Ling Wuxin told the story: "Back then, after my second brother and I parted ways, the second brother said that he would go to Suzhou Hegong Mountain to live in seclusion in the future......... Because the second brother once met a woman on Hegong Mountain, and he wanted to marry her, but the woman didn't obey her fate........."

“……… The second brother Bingzi was in a hurry, so he was desperate, and finally forced the woman to jump off the cliff alone........."

“……… After the woman's death, the second brother was very sorry for himself, and since then he has always said that when he is old in the future, he will go to Hegong Mountain to build a grass hut and live in seclusion, and atone for his sins with the woman........."

“……… When I traveled the world alone, until I came to this Peerless Mountain, I never saw the second brother during the period, the last time I saw the second brother was more than ten years ago when I went to the north to do business, by the way I went to Suzhou Hegong Mountain to visit the second brother, originally with the attitude of trying it, who knew that the second brother was really there, the second brother built three grass huts on the Hegong Mountain, in addition to himself there were two young lonely langchildren, the second brother took care of them as a master and a father. ”

“……… Maybe it's because of his fault back then, he hasn't married a wife, my second brother......... Life is not easy!! ”

As he spoke, some glittering mist appeared in Ling Wuxin's eyes, as if tears were about to burst out of his eyes.

"Master, don't be in a hurry to speak slowly."

The mad wolf knew that this must be due to Ling Wuxin's involvement in the events of the year, so he didn't persuade him, and Zhang Shang and Wu Tong had just learned some of the general information, so they didn't speak at this time, just sat quietly and listened.

“……… It is often said that people are old and anti-childlike. ”

Ling Wuxin said and gently wiped his eyes with his hand, and continued: "Actually, the second brother had no quarrel with the world at that time, and told me that he just wanted to live the rest of his life well, and I originally wanted to take the second brother to come to the Absolute Immortal Mountain, but the second brother said that he would not come at all, saying that he was used to staying on Hegong Mountain, and he was afraid of freezing when he came to my icy and snowy place........."

“……… I know it's all an excuse from the second brother, but in fact, he's afraid of causing me trouble. I saw that he refused to come back with me, so I didn't force it, who knows how to do it now!! ”

“……… This second brother!! What is the purpose of keeping the broken book of Raushzi, what can it be used for!! ”

As he spoke, Ling Wuxin suddenly raised his voice.

"Sir, what are you?"

The mad wolf will be a little confused again, and after saying for a long time, Ling Wuxin has been reminiscing about the past, why hasn't he said what the guest is doing here.

Ling Wuxin seemed to have guessed the wolf's thoughts, and then said, "The second brother has been kidnapped and may die at any time!!"

"What!!"

A shock came out of the mouths of the three at the same time.

"Master, what the hell is going on?"

The mad wolf asked urgently.

Ling Wuxin sorted out his emotions for a while and said: "I don't know where a group of demons came from, and I don't know how to learn that the second brother has the treasure of the Taiyi Town Sect - the first half of the Wandering Body Method, so he went to Hegong Mountain to find the second brother and asked him to hand over the half of the secret book, but he has never been soft in his life, and he won't .........hand it over anything."

“……… Originally, the second brother's force was top-notch, but after so many years of infighting, he lost a lot of kung fu in his hands, and he was outnumbered, and he was forcibly taken away by that group of demons. ”

“……… That group of demons originally only wanted to get the half of the book from the second brother, but when they finally found out about the relationship between him and me, they changed their minds and wanted to use him to blackmail the people of the Taiyi Sect to hand over the second half of the secret book........."

“……… The first half of this book was given by Master Zhuangzi Lizhuang, a friend of the second brother and an elder of Taiyimen, who had saved Zhuang Zili back then, and in order to repay the second brother, Zhuang Zili gave him the first half of the Wandering Method........."

“……… Moreover, at that time, Zhuang Zili told the second brother that there was still an original copy of the first half of the secret book in the sect, and what was given to the second brother was only a copy. ”

“……… Later, this group of demons took the second brother to blackmail Taiyimen. Let the people of the Taiyi Sect hand over the second half of the cheats, otherwise they will behead him in public, and the news will reach my ears like a tug. ”

“……… Master Xingyou, as the head of Taiyi, how could he be coerced to give away the treasure of the town faction, so he immediately refused........."

“……… But later, that group of demons repeatedly emphasized the relationship between the second brother and my Ling Wuxin, which made Master Xingyou hesitate a little, maybe he didn't want to provoke an incident with me Ling Yegu because of this matter........."

“……… Besides, our Lingye Valley has also made a lot of name in the northern country in recent years, and both public and private, Master Xingyou has to consider me Lingye Valley........."

"That's why his eldest disciple hurried to tell me what happened, hoping that I could come forward to help him solve this matter, because the bargaining chips of that group of demons are nothing more than the origin of the relationship between the second brother and me Ling Wuxin, as long as I can come forward in person, the matter may be able to have a solution!!"

"Master, do you know where those demons came from?" The wolf asked.

"This ......... But I don't know........."

Ling Wuxin was obviously stunned.

When I heard this talk about it just now, I was only angry, and I didn't ask what the demon did at all?

At a glance, the mad wolf knew that the old man was angry before, and most of them couldn't ask for an explanation, so he immediately said: "Master, don't worry about this matter first, the second master will not be in danger for the time being........."

“……… You think, the second master itself has no value, what is the use of them captive an old man who has no quarrel with the world, they just fancy the relationship between the second master and you......... I just want to use your name to get the other half of the cheats from the Taiyi family, before they finish this, the second master will not be in danger, don't worry!! ”

"Yes, Master, Mr. Mad is right, don't worry too much."

After the mad wolf was closed, Zhang Shang and Wu Tong also gave Ling Wuxin words of relief.

"Alas......... I knew that the second brother would not be in danger for the time being, but when I thought of him suffering at the hands of the gangsters, I couldn't help but feel indignant in my heart........."

“……… In this way, mad wolf, you go and invite him to come over, I will ask him face to face, what kind of gangster is that, just now I was so concerned about my sadness that I forgot to ask. Also, Xiaoshang, you and Wu Tong are now hurry up and ride fast horses to the Northern National Mausoleum City, and go there to find a person named Mu Xiao, he has a name called Demon Langzhong, he lives in Xiling Village, Liling City, he was a lifelong friend in the early years of the teacher, Liling City is near the sea, and it is not far from Taiyi Mountain, where Taiyimen is stationed........."

“……… Mu Xiao is a very knowledgeable person, and when he was young, he liked to explore everywhere, you go there to ask him about some things about my second brother, remember to inquire carefully. There will be some gains, and we don't always expect others to tell you, some things are better done in person!! ”

"Yes, Master, let's go and prepare!!"

With that, Zhang Shang and Wu Tong turned around and walked out.

"Wait a minute!!"

Ling Wuxin stopped them.

"What else does Master command?"

Ling Wuxin pondered for a moment and said: "You bring a few carrier pigeons, if you find anything, use the carrier pigeon to send the news back, you just walk around there more, if there is anything, I will use the carrier pigeon to tell you."

"Yes, Master, then we'll go and prepare."

Zhang Shang and Wu Tong were not out of the valley for the first time, so they didn't hesitate.

"Well, go ahead, be careful on the road."

Ling Wuxin instructed.

"Don't worry, Master!!"

After speaking, Zhang Shang and Wu Tong left the hall and prepared to go.

"Master, then I'll go and invite the guests."

Seeing that Ling Wuxin had finished arranging the two of them, the mad wolf asked.

"Wait a minute, he's traveled so far, let him rest for a while, don't be in a hurry at this time, let's talk about it tomorrow......... In addition, except for a few of us, don't let others know about this matter, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. ”

Ling Wuxin instructed softly.

"Don't worry, sir, I understand, then sir, you better go back and rest. Relax, don't worry about your body. ”

The mad wolf was not at ease to persuade.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm not going to be so useless, when I eat for a while, you can accompany me for nothing, just say I'm unwell, sue me for me."

With that, without waiting for the wolf to reply, he left through the side door of the hall.

…………

At this time, the wild wolf was the only one left in the hall, and he faced Ling Wuxin's disappearing back, and with a soft sigh in his mouth, he also turned to leave.

…………

…………

After Ling Wuxin returned to the study, he still felt uncertain, his heart was floating around all the time, always worrying about his second brother Gu Qihao, frowning and pacing back and forth in the study.

At this time, a woman walked in from outside the study, about fifty years old, although her face had the marks of time that could not be erased by the years, but from the outline she was very delicate, probably a beauty when she was young, she was dressed in a light gray long robe, wearing a wooden hairpin.

After walking into the study softly, he looked at Ling Wuxin, who was frowning and pacing around in front of him, and said distressedly: "Wuxin, what's wrong with you?" What's upset, I haven't seen you like this in years. ”

Ling Wuxin was distressed, and when he heard this voice, he immediately stopped, turned his head to look at the woman, and forcibly squeezed out a smile on his face.

He walked up to the woman and said in a harmonious tone, "Xiuying, you suffered from the wind and cold last night, why don't you lie on the couch and rest well?"

This woman's name is Duan Xiuying, who was originally the daughter of a wealthy family in the north, but because of her family's downfall, she suddenly changed from a young lady to an ordinary woman from an ordinary family.

One year, when she was out playing, she met Ling Wuxin, who was traveling the world.

At first sight.

The two of them agreed with each other, and then Duan Xiuying and a maid who had taken care of her in the past returned to the Immortal Mountain with Ling Wuxin.

Although Duan Xiuying said that her family was in decline, she also grew up in a prosperous city, and it stands to reason that it would be extremely inappropriate to suddenly go to this deserted and snowy place in the extreme north, but Duan Xiuying never said a word of no, she willingly served Ling Wuxin left and right, and took care of Ling Wuxin very carefully inside and out.

Decades have passed, Duan Xiuying has never had a cross-talk with Ling Wuxin, and she has never made Ling Wuxin unhappy, she is frugal and dresses very simply, so Ling Wuxin loves his wife very much, and the relationship between the two has never changed as always.

Duan Xiuying suffered a little cold last night, but today she has been much better, and when she was resting in the house just now, she suddenly felt very uneasy, and there was no reason, so she wanted to talk to Ling Wuxin and solve the problem.

As soon as he walked to the door of the study, he saw Ling Wuxin's appearance, and immediately knew that something must have happened to annoy him.

…………

…………

Duan Xiuying replied: "It's out of the way, Xiaowen cooked me ginger soup this morning, and after drinking it, it's fine, just now I felt suddenly uneasy in my heart, so I wanted to come over and talk to you, what's wrong, what's wrong?"

Ling Wuxin listened to his wife's words, the expression on his face gradually relaxed, and while holding his wife's hand with his hand, he said, "You, you just know how to guess, come and sit down first, what's the trouble."

As he spoke, he pulled his wife to sit down, and then sat down next to his wife as well.

Duan Xiuying said: "You, don't hide it from me, you said that since the two of us have been together, what can you hide from me?" What's the problem? ”

Ling Wuxin wrapped his wife's hands with both hands and said, "Alas, it's annoying, it's all some right and wrong in the martial arts, Xiuying, don't ask, it's just to add to the trouble." Rest assured, it's not a big deal. ”

"Well, that's good, then I won't ask."

Duan Xiuying has always been unsure of what her husband is unwilling to answer, this is also where Ling Wu respects his wife, and they trust each other very much, but it is the same.

"Oh, by the way, Xiaowen is now forty years old, he can't go without marrying for the rest of his life, and now we are not short of people to serve, do you want Xiaowen to find a satisfactory person to marry, or you can see if our apprentices have her eye, if you really can't match?"

Ling Wuxin obviously didn't want his wife to worry about him together, so he found a topic to divert the dull atmosphere.

Duan Xiuying pursed her lips and smiled: "You old guy, why do you always worry about whether Xiaowen marries or not, I think ........."

As she spoke, Duan Xiuying suddenly leaned into Ling Wuxin's ear and said something with a wicked smile on her face.

"You......... Xiuying, you ......... What are you talking about, after so many years, you can't make fun of me like that!! ”

I don't know what Duan Xiuying said, Ling Wuxin's face was very embarrassed all of a sudden, and he didn't even speak very neatly.

"Hahaha, what are you afraid of, I can call the shots anyway, what? If you want, I'll do it today!! Duan Xiuying continued to say with a wicked smile.

"Okay, my aunt, you can spare me, stop making fun!!"

As he spoke, his eyes moved left and right, and he also leaned into Duan Xiuying's ear and said softly.

"you!! You old fellow, you don't have a serious attitude every day, okay, I won't tell you, I'll go outside and take a look, you are bored here by yourself. ”

I don't know what Ling Wuxin said, Duan Xiuying also had the same embarrassment on her face, then pulled out her hand and got up and walked out. As he walked, he touched his mouth with his hand, as if he was snickering.

…………

Ling Wuxin looked at the back of his wife leaving, and his mood was relaxed for a while.

After such a small twist and turn, Ling Wuxin's originally annoyed and dull state of mind suddenly improved a lot, and he walked to the desk while stretching.

Spreading out the snow-white rice paper, I first picked up a brush, dipped the thick ink in the inkstone and was about to write on the paper.

After a slight delay, he put the pen in the basin of clear water and put it back after shabu.

After choosing a king-size brush, after staining it with thick ink, it was wiped off the rice paper, only to see the pen wandering like a dragon for a while, and the snow-white rice paper appeared on the eight big characters like the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing.

"The halberd sword of the absolute is all out of the Stygian Mountain."

These words come from the ancient stone book "Heaven and Earth Policy", Ling Wuxin likes to write whenever he has something on his mind.

Ling Wuxin's state of mind at this time really wanted to carry the peerless sword out of the Peerless Immortal Mountain to save his second brother, but Ling Wuxin was not that young and vigorous at this time, and now Ling Wuxin would definitely think about it before and after. Because he is not alone now, madam, coupled with such a big sect as Ling Yegu, Ling Wuxin has to be extremely careful, and he can't make any mistakes.
