Chapter 43: The Mystery of Origin
The Goddess Peak, the highest mountain in the country of Qi, is located in Cheongju, in the south of the country, close to the junction of the three kingdoms of the Green Bee Country, the Kingdom of Qi, and the Land of the Moon.
Legend has it that the goddess peak was originally a goddess incarnated, the goddess peak towers into the clouds, looks at it from afar, does not see the peak, only sees the mountainside clouds and mist, like a dream. The mountainside is full of rare flowers and rare birds and beasts in the world.
At the foot of the Goddess Peak, there is a naturally formed canyon that resembles a natural stone gate. After about 100 steps through the canyon, you will see a village.
A river about two feet wide divides the village into two halves of the north and south, and one or two storey wooden houses can be seen on the south side of the river, a stone bridge every hundred paces on the river, and small boats shuttle back and forth on the river.
The small mountain villa is built on the mountain, born by the water, the greenery lingers, the birds sing and the flowers are fragrant, and the people are full of laughter and laughter.
However, such a fairyland-like village has a creepy name - Soul Chasing Valley.
Soul Chasing Valley, in the eyes of the world, is the name of a killer organization that kills people without blinking. In people's minds, Soul Chaser Valley is a dark, terrifying, eerie, bloody place like a killer's profession, but in fact, it is such a peaceful and peaceful little village.
As everyone knows, the killers in Soul Chasing Valley are people who have no family and no friends and are alone, but no one knows that every killer in Soul Chasing Valley has parents, wives, children, brothers and sisters, and they all live peacefully in a quiet small village.
The killer of Soul Chasing Valley, when there is no task, he can fish and farm with ordinary people and live a normal life. When there is a mission, he hides his whereabouts, and even his family does not know his whereabouts. If the task is successful, you will be rewarded accordingly. If the mission fails, his family will be taken care of by the people of Soul Chaser Valley.
As a result, everyone in Soul Chaser Valley is loyal to the organization, and even if the killer is arrested in a failed mission, he will commit suicide to express his loyalty to the organization.
Mingtang Villa, located in the north of the Soul Chasing Valley, is built by the mountain, occupies several miles of the place, and is magnificent.
Mingtang Villa is the headquarters of Soul Chasing Valley. All activities in Soul Chasing Valley take place in Mingtang Villa, including killer training, mission seminars, and work handovers. There is a special training ground in Mingtang Villa, which conducts regular training for killers in Soul Chasing Valley, and also conducts training in all aspects for new killers in Soul Chasing Valley. There are four parts in Mingtang Villa, namely the Heavenly Wolf Pavilion, the Immortal Medicine Pavilion, the Linji Pavilion and the Sifang Pavilion. Each department has a cabinet master, and the Sky Wolf Pavilion has two cabinet masters. The Heavenly Wolf Pavilion is the killer department, which is directly managed by Yin Niang, and the posthumous deputy pavilion master participates in the management. The Immortal Doctor Pavilion is a medical hall, and the people of the rivers and lakes call the wonderful hand rejuvenation Mo Yao as the pavilion master, and the Immortal Doctor Pavilion is not only the medical hall of the Soul Chasing Valley, but also responsible for cultivating new medical newcomers in the Soul Chasing Valley. Linji Pavilion is an intelligence organization, specializing in cultivating manpower to go out to collect intelligence, and it is managed by Yin Niang. The Sifang Pavilion is the account room of the Soul Chasing Valley, in addition, the business of the Sifang Pavilion is all over the country, if it is said that the Sifang Pavilion is the richest man in the country, there is no doubt, but few people in the rivers and lakes know. The Sifang Pavilion was managed by Xiao Xuetang, the young master of the Soul Chasing Valley.
At this time, in a courtyard called Luoxue Garden in the west of Mingtang Villa, the maids were in and out, very busy.
At this time, in the guest room of the east wing of Luoxue Garden, a middle-aged woman dressed in red with a beautiful face stood by the bed, quietly staring at the woman lying on the bed, thoughtful.
At this moment, a young man entered the room, and when all the maids had gone out, he came forward and bowed: "Mother! ”
Only then did the middle-aged woman turn around and ask lovingly, "Tang'er is back!" ”
This young man is the young master of the Soul Chasing Valley, Xiao Xuetang. His mother is the current valley owner of Soul Chasing Valley, known as Yin Niang.
Xiao Xuetang heard his mother's question, nodded, and asked, "Mother, what's the matter with this little woman?" You asked the chase to come to me......"
"Tang'er," Yin Niang sighed lightly, and held up a piece of jade pendant in her hand for the man to see.
After Xiao Xuetang saw the jade pendant clearly, there was irrepressible surprise on his face. He slowly reached out and took off the jade pendant he hung around his waist, and the two jade pendants were placed together, and they were exactly the same.
"This ......," he was a little puzzled.
Yin Niang sighed lightly and said, "These two jade pendants are a pair. ”
"A couple?" Xiao Xuetang was even more puzzled: "Mother, what the hell is going on?" ”
Yin Niang sighed and shouted out of the door: "Chase your life, let the Immortal Medicine Pavilion Master come to see me quickly!" Then I heard the answer from outside the door, "yes", which was the sound of footsteps leaving.
"Mother," Xiao Xuetang continued to ask, "Who is this woman?" Where did this jade pendant come from? ”
Yin Niang glanced at the woman lying on the bed, looked at her son and said, "According to the chase, this woman can make flying snow swordsmanship!" It's called Drift Snow. The jade pendant is also on her. As for her identity...... You can't confirm it until she wakes up! ”
"But......" Xiao Xuetang wanted to ask something, but when he saw his mother's anxious look, he suppressed his doubts and only stared at the two jade pendants in his hand in a daze.
The woman on the bed is the drift snow that was seriously injured before being chased.
Soon, Chase Ming came with a middle-aged man, and after saluting, Yin Niang instructed: "Mo Yao, look at how this girl is!" ”
"Yes, Lord of the Valley!" Mo Yao answered, then diagnosed Liuxue, and then replied: "This woman just suffered a slap and was overtired, so she couldn't wake up." I'm sure she'll wake up soon. ”
Yin Niang nodded and responded: "Okay!" Then he and Xiao Xuetang walked to the outer room and waited.
Soon after Mo Yao left, he suddenly heard the maid waiting in the inner room exclaim, Yin Niang and Xiao Xuetang walked into the inner room, only to see Liuxue on the bed holding the maid's hand anxiously and asking what the place was, and seeing Yin Niang's mother and son coming in, she let go of the maid's hand and looked at the two people who came into the room.
"Where is this?" Liuxue looked vigilant, and her tone was cold, "Who are you?" Without waiting for Yin Niang to answer, Liuxue saw Xiao Xuetang's pursuit at a glance, and immediately held the sword in her hand and shouted angrily: "It's you!" Then he jumped out of bed, drew his sword and stabbed several people.
Seeing that Liuxue stabbed straight at her with a sword, Xiao Xuetang quickly took action to block the long sword in the woman's hand, and snorted coldly: "Presumptuous!" ”
However, Liuxue was not afraid, and picked up the long sword again to make another move. Xiao Xuetang used his unique stunt "Shadow Channeling Divine Skill" to snatch the long sword from her hand at a very fast speed and take her back of the heart with one palm. The whole speed only happened between two breaths, and the drifting snow was only able to catch two moves before parrying.
Just when Xiao Xuetang hit Liuxue's heart with his palm, Yin Niang suddenly took action to dissolve her son's palm power and saved Liuxue.
"Mother!" Xiao Xuetang didn't understand his mother's approach.
Yin Niang shook her head with a smile, took Liuxue's hand and walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, and asked softly: "The girl is from the capital, and her ancestral surname is Meng?" ”
Liuxue listened to her words, and was shocked, and then clenched her fists, her eyes full of coldness: "What did you say?" ”
Yin Niang smiled and held her clenched hand, and said softly: "You don't have to be nervous, I have no malicious intent." As he spoke, he turned his head and shouted, "Tang'er, Yu Pei!" ”
Xiao Xuetang took out two identical jade pendants from his arms and handed them over. Liuxue snatched it over and looked at it carefully, and then looked at Yin Niang with a puzzled face.
Yin Niang looked at the two jade pendants and said softly: "These two jade pendants are originally a pair. This jade pendant of yours has a snow character engraved on the edge, and this jade pendant of mine has a frost character engraved on the edge. Then he ordered the maid to bring a sword and said, "There are three words engraved on the sword of this sword: Flying Snow Sword!" And my sword is also engraved with words. ”
Liuxue looked carefully at the two jade pendants in her hand, and sure enough, it was as she said. She couldn't believe it, snatched the sword from Yin Niang's hand, and sure enough, she found the words on the sword: Flowing Frost Sword!
"This ...... How could it be ......" Liuxue was stunned. This jade pendant and sword are clearly a pair.
Yin Niang continued: "Girl, can you answer my question truthfully. Does the girl know the Meng family in the capital? Do you know Meng Weixuan and Yin Feixue? ”
Hearing this, Liuxue's hands shook fiercely, her lips trembled, and she stared at Yin Niang tightly: "You...... How do you know my parents' names? You...... Who the hell is it? ”
Yin Niang listened to her words, was stunned for a moment, then burst into tears, and said excitedly: "Child, do you know that Frost and Snow are biological sisters!" DID YOU KNOW...... My real name is ...... Yin Liushuang! ”
Liuxue was speechless in shock, and even Xiao Xuetang and Chasing Life were shocked.
