Chapter 43: Extinction and Succession
As soon as Emperor Yuan heard that he was going to be sacrificed to the sky, he immediately panicked, and he didn't care about anything else, and said in a panic: "No, no, no, the Eastern Sect Master, didn't you promise me, bypass my life, whatever you want, I can give it to you!" ”
As he spoke, he was about to grab Dongfang Sheng's arm, Dongfang Sheng waved his hand and said, "Get out of here!" ”
As soon as Dongfang Sheng said this, Emperor Yuan not only did not get angry, but said happily: "Get out, okay, I'll get out, I'll get out!" ”
Emperor Yuan hurriedly turned around, and the girl ran away.
Wei Yi smiled at the departing Emperor Yuan, and said puzzledly: "Sect Master, did we go so hard to let him go like this?" ”
"Originally, I wanted to kill him, but his wine-colored hollowed out appearance moved me, this kind of person is better than being the emperor of the Yuan Court than changing to a shrewd and capable person to be the emperor."
Dongfang Sheng's words, everyone quickly understood, so they said one after another: "The sect leader is far-sighted, and his subordinates admire!" ”
Suddenly, there was another sound of footsteps in the east, and everyone thought that the Yuan soldiers had chased it, so they pulled out their weapons and prepared for battle.
But soon they saw who it was, it was Zhou Dian.
Seeing Zhou Dian, Yin Tianzheng asked, "Zhou Dian, where is my grandson Wuji?" ”
"He's with the six major factions, and he's not with us, so he should be out of the city at this time! By the way, Eagle King, have you taken the life of the Dog Emperor? ”
Yin Tianzheng: "It's a long story at this time, let's get out of here first!" ”
said that everyone got on the horses prepared in advance, but as soon as Dongfang Sheng got on the horse, he felt that his eyes were a little black, so he looked at Xiao Zhao who was riding a rouge horse and said, "Xiao Zhao come here, let's ride one!" ”
Xiao Zhao's face flushed when he heard this, but he still obediently got off the horse.
Looking at Xiao Zhao, Dongfang Sheng said: "Go behind me!" ”
Xiao Zhao was stunned for a moment, a little puzzled, she thought that men and women should not ride together and men should not hug women, why did the son let himself hold him.
However, obedience is Xiao Zhao's advantage, Xiao Zhao obediently rode on the horse and carefully hugged Dongfang Sheng.
Dongfang Sheng said weakly: "Xiao Zhao, hug me, I'll sleep first!" ”
Then his head tilted and he fainted, Xiao Zhao was shocked, and hurriedly grabbed Dongfang Sheng's pulse, and found that he just fell asleep without strength, and he didn't worry about his life, so he put his heart down.
"Yang Zuo, Bat King, Eagle King, Childe, he fainted, we have to get out of here a little bit, find a place for Childe to rest!"
As he spoke, Xiao Zhao grabbed the horse's belly and left quickly.
Wei smiled: "Ah, what, the sect leader fainted, Miss Xiao Zhao, wait for me!" Drive! ”
"Quick, keep up!"
Dongfang Sheng's move to capture Emperor Yuan had already consumed all his internal strength and physical strength, and he walked for so long, and he didn't faint, even if Dongfang Sheng held on strongly, but now he finally couldn't support it anymore and fainted.
…………………………
On the other side, because Zhang Wuji and the others did not withdraw with Zhou Dian, they didn't know the passage prepared by the Ming Sect at all.
I had no choice but to walk from the northwest gate, and there was a battle with the guards of the gate.
Because of the chaos in the palace, the guards left behind at the city gate were all on standby, and they were afraid that someone would take advantage of the chaos to attack the capital.
Therefore, the bows and arrows of the city gate guards have caused a lot of damage to this group of masters of the six major factions, and sometimes, no matter how high your martial arts are, you can't block every bow and arrow.
When the six major factions rushed out of the capital, Wudang was fine, because Zhang Wuji brought a lot of people from Wudang this time, so the Wudang Seven Heroes only suffered some minor injuries.
But the Kongtong faction was miserable, the five elders of Kongtong became the second elder of Kongtong, Mr. Tieqin of the Kunlun faction, He Taichong's right arm was cut off, and Ban Shuxian's body was also held by a Kunlun female disciple.
The Shaolin faction Kongzhi also stayed in Dadu forever, the two elders of the Huashan faction both died, Ding Minjun, who the Emei faction and Zhou Zhiruo did not deal with, was also shot in the right eye socket with a bow and arrow, and died through the brain, and the exterminator was also shot near the heart with a bow and arrow, and at this time, the pale one was supported by Zhou Zhiruo and Pei Jinyi.
Fortunately, the Yuan soldiers did not dare to pursue after they left the city, otherwise more people would have died.
The six major factions rushed out of the city and walked for a while, and everyone began to rest in a dense forest. Zhou Zhiruo looked at the bow and arrow on the chest of the exterminator, and tears flowed.
The extermination master also knew that his limit was approaching, and looked at Zhou Zhiruo and said, "Zhiruo, I have something to give you for the teacher." ”
"Master, you say, Zhiruo will definitely do it!"
The exterminator looked at Pei Jinyi and said, "Well, Jinyi, you step down with them first, and I will talk to your junior sister alone for a while!" ”
Pei Jinyi seemed to have guessed something, and said with red eyes: "Yes, master!" Then he turned around and left with his sisters.
After Pei Jinyi left, the exterminator took off the iron ring, held the iron ring high above the top, and said: "The third generation of the head of the Emei faction is extinct, and I would like to pass on the position of the head of the sect to the fourth generation of female disciple Zhou Zhiruo. ”
Zhou Zhiruo was in a sad moment, her mind was already in chaos, and when she suddenly heard that she was going to take over as the head of her faction, she was even more at a loss and stunned. The exterminator said slowly, word by word: "Zhou Zhiruo, take the iron ring of the head of the sect and stretch out her left hand. ”
Zhou Zhiruo raised her left hand in a trance, and the exterminator put the iron ring on her index finger. Zhou Zhiruo said in a trembling voice: "Master, the disciple is young and has not been a beginner for a long time, how can he take on this important task?" Your old man will be able to get out of trouble this time, don't say that, the disciple really can't ......" Speaking of this, looking at the blood overflowing from the corner of the extermination master's mouth, he couldn't help but hug the master's legs and cry.
Although the exterminator was hit by a sharp arrow, if he cultivated in time, he would be able to do it without hindrance, but the successive battles, coupled with running all the way, if it weren't for his profound skills, he would have gone to the Hades Palace to report.
This time she was able to rest, and the energy that was hanging in her heart naturally loosened, and the others didn't know her injury, but she still knew that she was killing herself.
Seeing Zhou Zhiruo's pitiful appearance, the exterminator thought that he was about to go big, and in the future, he wanted this weak woman with a supple personality to pick up such a heavy burden, but I was afraid that she would really be overwhelmed, but among the disciples of Emei, only she had the highest understanding, and she wanted to practice the highest martial arts, and she would be able to expand her own sect, except for her, there was no second disciple who was suitable.
Thinking that in the long days after that, this little disciple was bound to experience countless hardships and dangers, he couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, hugged her in his arms, and said softly: "Zhiruo, I called you the head of the sect, and I don't pass it on to your senior sisters, it's not that I am partial, just because the Emei faction is dominated by women, and the head of the sect must be outstanding in martial arts to be able to stand on his own among the martial arts heroes." ”
Zhou Zhiruo said: "But how can the disciple's martial arts be as good as the senior sisters?" ”
The exterminator smiled slightly and said: "Their achievements are limited, and when they reach the current realm, it is difficult to make much progress, that is a matter of talent, and it is beyond the power of manpower." Although you are inferior to all the senior sisters at the moment, you will be limitless in the future. ”
Zhou Zhiruo looked confused, looked at the master, and didn't know why she was so confident in herself.
Looking at the confused disciple, the exterminator put his lips to her ear and whispered, "You are already the head of this sect, and I have to tell you a big secret of this sect." The founding patriarch of this faction, Guo Nuxia, is the youngest daughter of the hero Guo Jing. Guo Daxia was famous all over the world, and there were two unique arts in his life, one was the art of war on the march, and the other was martial arts.
Guo Daxia's wife Huang Rong Huang Nuxia is the most smart and witty, she saw that the Yuan army was strong, and Xiangyang could not be defended, and he and his wife were determined to repay the country with death, which was the loyalty of knowing that they could not do it, but if Guo Daxia's mastery was lost, wouldn't it be a pity? What's more, she expected that even if the Mongols occupied China for a while, our Han people would not be willing to be Tartar slaves after all. In the bloody battle of the Central Plains in the future, the art of war and martial arts will be of great use.
Therefore, she hired a master craftsman, melted a dark iron heavy sword given by Yang Guo Daxia to Patriarch Guo of this school, and then added Western fine gold to cast a dragon slayer knife and a sword that leaned on the sky. ”
Zhou Zhiruo had been accustomed to the names of the Dragon Slayer Knife and the Heavenly Sword for a long time, and at this moment she realized that this pair of swords was actually forged by the mother of the ancestor of this sect, Guo Xiang Nuxia.
The exterminator said again: "Before Huang Nuxia forged the sword and cast the sword, she and Guo Daxia worked hard for a month, and wrote down the essence of the art of war and martial arts, which were hidden in the sword. What is hidden in the dragon slaying knife is the art of war, and this knife is called 'dragon slaying', which means that in the future, if someone gets the war book in the sword, he can drive out the Tartar and kill the Tartar emperor.
The most precious of them is a 'Nine Yin True Scripture', a 'Eighteen Palms of the Dragon Descending Palm', hoping that future generations will learn the martial arts in the sword, do the way for the heavens, and eliminate harm for the people.
After Guo Daxia and his wife forged a sword and a sword, they gave the sword to their son Guo Gong Po, and the sword was passed on to the ancestor Guo of this faction. Of course, Patriarch Guo had to be taught martial arts by his parents, and Guo Gong Po also had to teach the art of war.
But on the day of the destruction of Xiangyang City, Guo Daxia and his wife were martyred at the same time as Guo Gongpo. Patriarch Guo's temperament and his father's martial arts are incompatible, so the martial arts of this school are not the same as Guo Daxia back then.
In the past hundred years, there have been many turmoil in the martial arts, and the pair of swords have changed owners several times. Later generations only know that the Dragon Slaying Treasure Sword is the supreme martial arts, and only the Heavenly Sword can match it, but no one knows why it is the supreme. Guo Gong broke the young man and martyred the country, and there was no heir, it was a secret in the sword, and only the ancestor Guo of his own school passed it down. ”
Speaking of this, the exterminator's tone changed and he denied what he had just said: "No, in the last Guangming Peak War, the current sect leader of the Ming Sect, Dongfang Sheng, seems to know this secret.
The trick he used to snatch the Heavenly Sword from Weishi that day was the martial arts of Peach Blossom Island, you must find an opportunity in the future, I hope he can see the face of Peach Blossom Island and share the secret book with you. ”
"Master, but if he doesn't share it with me, what can the apprentice do?"
"You can ...... Poof...... "Before the exterminator finished speaking, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and then the essence of his eyes slowly dissipated.
Zhou Zhiruo didn't wipe the blood off her face, she hugged her weak body and cried bitterly: "Master......"
When Pei Jinyi heard the cry, she hurried over, and the other people of the six major factions also walked over, looking at Zhou Zhiruo, who was crying bitterly, and the exterminator who was out of breath, everyone couldn't help but bow their heads......
