"Your letter. ”

Four days later, in the early morning, in Xia Fanxing's bedroom. Hou Ying cleaned up the soup bowl he had finished drinking and handed him a letter.

Xia Fanxing didn't know what was going on. After his dantian entered the lockdown again that night, he has not unlocked the seal until today. In the past four days, as Hou Ying said, he has really become a mortal without any aura. After helping Master settle the unconscious Su Qiao that night, he returned to the bedroom in a drowsy state and fell asleep. The next day, Senior Sister Hou appeared in his and Zhou Zhu's bedroom with his black chicken soup, which made him flattered for a while.

And Zhou Zhu on the side, although he was mentally prepared. But when she saw Hou Ying taking care of Xia Fanxing like this, she was still surprised. However, every morning after that, she punctually brought Xia Fanxing her own nourishing chicken soup.

Xia Fanxing glanced at the envelope, but found that it looked familiar. On the envelope was a spirit bird with a big beak and a small head, wasn't this Hua Rongyu's special envelope? He was shocked in his heart, could it be that Hua Rongyu, who still didn't know where he was, had sent him a letter? Thinking of the Winter Solstice Martial Arts Meeting, he immediately opened the envelope, but what he saw was a letter dictated to him by Zheng Yanei, who had been separated for a long time, and asked Zheng Yanei, who had joined the cottage together, to dictate a letter to him.

"Delivered to the gate of Dongshan. That uncle sent it, and no one opened your letter. ”

"The Winter Solstice Martial Arts will be advanced to half a month later...""I will go down to the next one...""I have already written a letter to the Smoke Willow Girl, and the two of you must go to participate as promised...""Weren't you very interested in the spiritual platform in my broken house in Ghost Alley before? The people and portraits enshrined on it are all related to the Tang Dynasty Martial Arts Association. "If you are still interested in knowing this, you must come to ...... in half a month."

These words appeared in Xia Fanxing's eyes, and they immediately complicated his mind. Fortunately, although I don't know why, since the Winter Solstice Martial Arts Meeting has been advanced by a month, there is no trouble overlapping with the time of the Ancient Sword Cave Heaven.

However, what really made Xia Fanxing curious was Qin Blind's words. He had long felt that Qin Blind Man should be related to several disabled knights who had won the first place in the martial arts meeting a few years ago. And if he said so, it is very likely that at this Tang Dynasty martial arts meeting, those mysterious knights will appear together.

This really aroused Xia Fanxing's curiosity. You can know by feeling that this group of chivalrous people has an extraordinary background. There's definitely a secret that's been kept in the dust. For Qin's blind man, he had a sense of reverence. This person really made him feel the existence of the so-called chivalrous spirit. Reckless, affectionate and righteous. In order to make up for the uneasiness in his heart, he was willing to defect to Fanyang Cottage at this time, give up his already stable life, and face An Lushan. And what kind of extraordinary style will the chivalrous warrior who can make him remember?

What's more, I was able to meet Ji Yanliu justifiably. After half a month, whether it is Hua Rongyu, who has an unpredictable whereabouts, Elder Li who stayed in the sect, or Xuan Neng, they will help them arrange their departure from the sect.

Since that night four days ago, he has been thinking about Ji Yanliu in his heart. I didn't know each other for long, and I was able to fall in love, which is not a small fate. And in the days he spent in Liyang, he always felt that something was missing, something he owed her. Then he figured out that it was he who was not doing well.

When she was in Liyang, she was more like a little henchman of his. Later, things about Zhiyunguan and Ji Wen became more and more confusing, and he, like Li Wanjin and others, was engrossed in this case. really neglected her feelings, and he even forgot in the end that Ji Yanliu hated getting along with men very much, and he didn't like to live in the world.

In the end, their agreement made Xia Fanxing feel guilty. He asked her to approach Chang Shi Jiwen and provide information to Li Wan. With her temperament, she can charm all men with a kind of crotch, let alone a Giwen. Although he repeatedly reminded her that no matter what, don't lose your body. However, this agreement did not take into account her feelings at all. However, she is willing to help him from the beginning to the end and expose the secrets of the Heavenly Lack Sect.

He didn't know if Ji Yanliu had been wronged. I could only know from Elder Li's mouth that when she returned to the sect not long ago, she still remembered him.

This is not what he thinks, what that kind of interaction should look like. And all of this is his fault.

When they met again, he made up his mind that there would be no regrets in their relationship. He was so determined that he wanted to really make her feel his heart.

"Whose letter?" Hou Ying asked casually as she picked up the dining table, sat on the bed, and asked nonchalantly.

Xia Fanxing glanced at Zhou Zhu opposite, his expression was obviously a little strange. Does Senior Brother have any friends outside the sect? How could anyone write from them?

He smiled and said, "It's nothing, maybe it's the people I met when I traveled with Master before, I forgot all about them." ”

On the other side, he sent a voice to Hou Ying and said, "The chivalrous man I met in Chang'an in the first two months. ”

Then, he told Hou Ying about the Tang Wuhui and Ji Yanliu and other things.

After a long time, Hou Ying's cold voice came back, "I don't bother to think about the affairs of Gu Jian Dongtian, spend this time to go out with others?"

Xia Fanxing smiled bitterly in his heart, this is not just playing... After thinking about it, he passed the sound, "Senior sister, don't worry... I'm definitely going to try. I also want to go to the cave to see the world..."

"Your dantian is weird. And you still have the remnants of Gu poison in your body. Recuperate. To be honest, I want you to accompany me to that place. Hmm, you are a sword cultivator, I should accompany you. ”

After saying that, Hou Ying picked up the food table and left the bedroom. After she left, Xia Fanxing stretched comfortably and said to the junior brother on the side, "Go out for a walk!" I can't cultivate now, I have time to guide you and break through the foundation building as soon as possible!"

————

At night, in the first cultivation mansion of the Tu Feng Sect.

This was the second assembly of the disciples of the Alliance Sect. Standing behind the platform was Master Ming Zhen of the West Pole Sect. The scar on his head is still shocking, his expression is serious, and he is announcing something important.

At this time, among the disciples in the audience, the atmosphere was obviously much heavier than the last time. Especially the disciples of the Tu Feng Sect in the middle row, as well as the disciples of the East Palace who sat or occupied at the back. This afternoon, there were many Alliance Sect disciples who witnessed this conflict between the disciples of the Tu Feng Sect and the disciples of the East Palace.

The elders of the two sects immediately knew about this matter, and before they had time to reconcile, the Xuan Miao Immortal Master and the Western Pole Sect Xinghang Master, who had been observing the Lingnan Ancient Sword Shrine for several days, passed back an extremely important discovery. They put aside the fierce clash and held a second rally.

In the afternoon conflict, several male disciples of the Tu Feng Sect were almost all in the middle of it. And he almost started with the disciples of the East Palace. It happened at the foot of Guanmei Peak. During this time, the kendo-taking disciples of various sects liked to meditate and practice around Lingshan, and the effect was very good. And Guanmei Peak and Zhixuan Peak, which have the strongest aura at the foot of the mountain, have become places where they often go. Therefore, the fierce conflict between the disciples of the two sects was seen by many disciples of the alliance sect.

- The cause of the whole thing is actually not a big deal.

In the afternoon, several male disciples of the Tu Feng Sect went to the foot of Guanmei Peak to meditate and cultivate, and many disciples of the Alliance Sect were cultivating here at that time. While the four disciples of the East Palace gathered around the Heavenly Atrien, they found some strange spirit grasses near the Heavenly Atrien.

Then, the disciples of the Tu Feng Sect bumped into them.

At that time, Xia Fanxing was also with a few senior brothers, and he found that the disciples of the East Palace were discussing over there, and the spirit grass that suddenly appeared around the entrance of the Tianxue Cave was actually very rare, and it was almost a winter peach root that only grew on the top of Guanmei Peak and in the secret realm of Yongmei.

Winter peach root is a very unique spirit plant. It can grow dense flower forests, but only its roots are valuable. And its roots are not deep underground, but crawl above the surface, and only the bottom goes into the shallow soil. The area around the entrance of the cave is densely covered with winter peach roots in the shape of peanuts.

And its growth mechanism is very different from other spirit grasses. After sowing seeds on Guanmei Peak, it can grow quickly in a short period of time and grow into a dense flower forest. In the next period of time, the spirit flower will absorb the aura of heaven and earth with high efficiency, and when it reaches the limit that the spirit core can bear, the flower will emit an extremely cold aura to freeze the spirit core. The following is a period of more than ten or twenty years, and the winter peach root spirit core will be in a frozen state. Many spirit flowers will die in the process, losing all their spiritual power. The few who survived, after the spirit core thawed, could be used as high-grade medicinal materials.

When Xia Fanxing saw this, he felt very strange. The last time I came to the cave, I didn't notice the existence of winter peach roots at all. Moreover, although this spirit plant was not difficult to grow at first, it was certainly not adapted to the climate at the foot of the mountain. A piece of winter peach root that suddenly appeared here is likely to have appeared in the past week.

And what surprised him the most was that this piece of Winter Peach Root Spirit Core seemed to have already gone through the step of freezing the spirit core! The rich medicinal qi inside it could be felt when he took two steps closer, so it was no wonder that it attracted several East Palace disciples to comment on it.

The medicinal roots of winter peaches are still rooted on the surface. The winter peach blossoms on it have long since disappeared. This strange phenomenon aroused his doubts. The winter peach roots, which have been able to be plucked for medicine, continue to grow on the ground. Although the name of the winter peach root has the word winter peach, it does not bear fruit. Pick the winter peach blossoms that have survived the freezing of the spirit core, plant the petals into the ground with a unique method, and water them with the cold dew of the early sun every day, and after a month, a large number of spiritual roots will grow. And this kind of spiritual root, which was already full of medicinal power, was still growing, which really made Xia Fanxing feel strange. And these winter peach roots are unknown, and he doesn't know when they appeared, which makes him even more confused.

However, the Donggong disciples who followed a few senior brothers closer and talked enthusiastically about these spiritual roots didn't notice them coming at all, and one of the Donggong disciples gently bent down and touched the winter peach root that was rich in medicinal power. What they were talking about made Xia Fanxing have to step forward to stop it.

Zhang Han, the senior brother of the fourth seat, pulled him back, "Senior brother, they are all friends of the alliance sect, and it doesn't hurt to send them some elixirs on the spiritual mountain." ”

"That's not what I meant... A few senior brothers, I read ancient books and medicinal books on weekdays, and I have some understanding of this spiritual grass. ...... Winter Peach Root This thing has multiple taboos for people who cultivate the Seven Killing Star Qi, and it has to be processed many times, so it must not be taken lightly!"

He quickly explained to the senior brothers, and his mind remembered the elder brother that Master had told him. That Donggong disciple had already carefully pulled up a string of spiritual roots and excitedly presented them in front of the same door.

In the East Liuli Palace, the Seven Killing Dao Sect is also a very large branch. There must have been a few of these disciples who were Seven Killing Star Qi cultivators. Although he didn't have a good impression of the group of arrogant disciples in the East Palace, Xia Fanxing couldn't watch them take the winter peach root and end up like that Wang Yunhai.

It's really strange, why did this rare spirit strain suddenly appear here, it's still a large area!

However, the attitude of the Donggong disciple who was the leader was not very good.

Su Yandao, the third sword cultivator of the East Palace, saw him coming from the few people in the Tu Feng Sect, and asked with an unkind face, "What is the matter with Daoyou?"

Cao Yin, the disciple of the East Palace who was carefully holding the winter peach root full of dirt in his hand, had a certain elixir attainment, shook the winter peach root in front of a few fellow disciples, and said proudly, "Xia Daoyou, they are all friends, you won't be reluctant to let us take some of this elixir, right?"

Several East Palace disciples all set their eyes on him, with a faint coercion. At this time, Xia Fanxing, whose dantian was closed, patiently told them the reason, and finally said, "Fellow Daoists, if you want to take some winter peach roots with you, it's best to ask the family master to help you deal with it." If you are a Taoist friend of the Seven Killing Dao Sect, it is best not to take it. ”

Cao Yin looked at the spiritual root in his hand and shook his head disdainfully, "It seems that this fellow Daoist is really reluctant." ”

"I've also read a lot of medicinal books, and I've heard of the name of winter peach root. You said that the Seven Killing Monks can't take it, but you have a reason. Otherwise... I have to wonder if Xia Daoyou is a little too uninteresting......"

Several senior brothers knew that Xia Fanxing's physical strength was not good at the moment, and they all came over after seeing the disciples of the East Palace surround him. He didn't understand the specific mechanism of Dong Taogen, so he could only persuade him a few more words, if they really didn't listen, it wouldn't matter.

"The Xuanneng Immortal Master once told you, if you are resolutely unwilling to listen to me, then let you go!"

But at this time, Su Yandao sneered and said something that all the disciples of the Tu Feng Sect had heard, "Xuan Neng Immortal Master, the old man once collaborated with the West Hall to steal my sect's Water God Formula, is it possible that now he is reluctant to give even a few elixirs to his allies?"

Zhang Han, Ouyang Ren and others on the side were confused. Only Xia Fanxing understood what he meant. His pale face showed coldness, and he said lightly, "Fellow Daoist, this is Guanmei Peak, you'd better pay attention to what you say." ”

"Hmm, isn't what I'm saying the truth? The Xuanneng Immortal Master at that time wasn't an old-timer. However, some people in the sect are ashamed. For the sake of a sword that he was completely unsure of, he decided to work with a former thief. ”

The disciples behind Su Yandao all had sneers on their faces. Xia Fanxing felt more and more that they were finding fault. Although Xuan Neng acted strangely, moreover, what Su Yandao said was the truth. But at the foot of the dignified Meifeng, outsiders must not be allowed to ridicule and humiliate at will.

"If you feel ashamed, you can get out of my sect. Oh, you won't be able to explain to the seniors of the East Palace after getting out. Then get out of your own sect and see who will sympathize with you!"

The theft of "Water God Formula" is known to everyone in the East Palace. A large part of the reason why these disciples have always been lukewarm towards the Tu Feng Sect is this. Whether it was the West Hall at the beginning, or the Xuan Neng who took advantage of the fire to rob, they were all thieves. What was stolen was one of the most mysterious cheats in the East Palace. Young, vigorous monks naturally feel uncomfortable. But helplessly, the sect master decided to form an alliance with the Tu Feng Sect, which can be said to be no way at all. Hearing Xia Fanxing say this, Su Yandao's face immediately became frosty, he didn't expect this guy to dare to speak so much, and took a murderous step forward, and the three senior brothers of the Tu Feng Sect immediately protected Xia Fanxing behind him.

"Su Daoyou, Senior Brother Xia kindly reminded you, but you first insulted the Xuanneng Immortal Master under Guanmei Peak. I don't know what your so-called "Water God Formula" is, but this is within our sect, please be respectful!"

Zhang Han, who had an honest and honest face, stared at a few East Palace disciples and said in a deep voice.

The full murderous aura surrounded the disciples of the two sects, attracting the attention of many disciples of the alliance sect on and off Guanmei Peak Mountain. Qin Liang, the disciple of the seventh rank, pulled out the spirit sword on his waist, he was happy by nature, and directly pointed at Su Yandao with his sword, and said disdainfully, "Do you really think that there will be any problems with us missing you one of the countdown ancient sects of ten thousand years old?" In the near future, the Ancient Sword Cave Heaven, you East Palace will play by yourself!"

As soon as the spirit sword came out, Cao Yin and the others also drew their swords one after another, and pointed at the disciples of the Tu Feng Sect with murderous aura. Zhang Han and Su Yandao drank at the same time, stopping the actions of the juniors and disciples.

Even though he was tense and trembling with anger, Su Yandao still kept his senses, and like the calm Zhang Han, he was unwilling to make things bigger. "Zhang Daoyou, look at what your junior brother said... Is that how you treat your allies?"

Zhang Han glared at the seventh junior brother, then turned around and said without humility or arrogance, "Fellow Daoist, it was Senior Brother Xia who kindly reminded you not to use the winter peach root indiscriminately. That Cao Daoyou questioned our reluctance? And wouldn't Daoyou want to think that he was qualified to judge the Xuanneng Immortal Master under Guanmei Peak?"

The argument continued for a while, and the atmosphere remained tense throughout. In the end, Master Ming Zhen, who received the sound of Master Xinghang outside the sect, was about to leave the sect and pass through here. Only then did they pull the disciples of both sides apart and send them all back to the inner sect.

Many disciples of the Alliance Sect heard what the disciples of the two sects said. Therefore, this conflict inevitably led to the deterioration of the relationship between the East Palace and the disciples of the Tu Feng Sect. When the elders of the two sects learned about it, they were furious that their disciples did not choose to speak. For the elders of the East Palace, the matter of the "Water God Technique" has passed for a long time, and in their opinion, this time the ancient sword cave heaven has formed an alliance with the Tu Feng Sect, which is more valuable than the alliance with the Nine Lotus Sect, so they are not willing to mention those old things again, and the two ice have released their previous suspicions. Moreover, the winter peach root is indeed something that cannot be taken indiscriminately, and his own disciples are really ugly in this, and for the Tu Feng Sect, every ally is a distinguished guest at this time, and it is definitely not easy to offend. And finally got along with the East Palace, but I didn't expect a few children to have a conflict again. However, the news brought by Master Mingzhen after his return made everyone have no time to take care of this matter for the time being.

“... Inside the sword mound, there was a faint overflow of the Seven Killing Star Qi. It can be seen that the owner of the sixth ancient sword before the Great Tribulation should be a master of seven killings. ”

“... The specific time is two months later, around the day of the winter solstice. This time is already relatively accurate, and the difference will not be particularly large. ”

"Through the observations of the two predecessors, one important thing can still be determined. This time the trial mode of the Ancient Sword Cave will definitely follow one of the previous five times. The important basis for this conclusion is that the weapon spirit in the sword mound has begun to release a large amount of Seven Killing Star Qi now, so the ancient sword spirit when the cave is finally opened will be relatively weak. ”

"As a result, the final spiritual power and spiritual intelligence are likely to be inferior to the previous few divine swords. But this doesn't exactly mean that the Excalibur that was born this time is inferior to the Excalibur that came out before. Rather, it means that in the Cave Heaven Fantasy Realm created by the machine spirit, its trials will follow the previous routine. ”

“... So, in the remaining two months, you'd better spend some more time studying what happened five times. ”

After saying this important news, Ming Zhen walked off the stage. All the disciples of the Alliance Sect got up and left. Xin Heng and Shi Lin Dao people on both sides of the front walked down with gloomy faces, and stopped a few disciples who had a conflict between Tu Feng Sect and the East Palace in the afternoon.
