Chapter 29: Penglai

Zhou Yi pulled Cha Qi down, and when the door opened, the cold wind of early winter swept in, burrowing into his body from the collar and all the way to the soles of his feet.

"That Penglai sword, I have been looking for it for a long time, since you know the people of the Tang family, why don't you persuade them to present the sword as soon as possible." The emperor looked very tired, leaned back on the dragon chair, and said.

Han Hong's heart sank.

Although he resolved the crisis that was approaching him, he finally couldn't escape the fate of sacrificing the sword.

He sighed, "The minister dared to ask, why did the emperor look for that ancient sword?" ”

The voice fell to the ground and there was no response.

Han Hong felt a condescending indifferent gaze, and for a long time, until he thought that the emperor would not say it, the person on the dragon chair snorted faintly and said, "Now that Cha Qi doesn't count on it, it's okay to leave this matter to you." ”

Saying that, Han Hong said to the great eunuch Wang Chaoen, "You come and talk to him." ”

Wang Chaoen received the order, and Han Hong arched his hand and said: "Lord Han doesn't know anything. The emperor got a bamboo slip, which was engraved by the sword saint Pei Fei two hundred years ago, which recorded the sword saint Pei Fei's trip to Penglai. ”

Hearing the word "Penglai", Han Hong's eyelids jumped, and he only heard Wang Chaoen continue, "The Sword Saint has indeed been to that Penglai Immortal Island, not only because of this bamboo slip proof, but also because he got a spirit sword from Penglai Immortal Island back then, and this sword is the Penglai Sword!" ”

Therefore, when someone asked about the origin of the Sword Saint Penglai Sword, the Sword Saint did not lie, but no one believed that there was really Penglai Immortal Island!

"However, the Penglai Sword has been around for two hundred years, and I have never heard of anyone who has been to Penglai Wonderland, that is, the Gusu Shen clan who serves the sword, and they are just serving this sword! What is the use of the emperor asking for this sword? ”

The emperor raised his eyes and glanced at him, his eyes seemed to be dissatisfied, but Wang Chaoen laughed, "Lord Han, listen to it." This bamboo slip clearly remembers that after the sword saint Pei Fei went to the Penglai Wonderland, he drew a map and prepared to go later, but the world changed and he couldn't go again, and this map was hidden in the Penglai Sword. ”

"How is this possible?" Han Hong couldn't believe it, "If there is really such a picture, will the Shen family, who has served Penglai for a hundred years, not find out?" ”

"First, they don't know that there is such a picture, and second, they must be clever in the sword." Wang Chaoen explained.

Han Hong had never heard Pei Zhen mention Penglai Immortal Island, she said that she was conscious, and she was by the side of the Sword Saint Pei Fei, where did it have anything to do with that Penglai Immortal Island?

He wanted to say more, but the emperor opened his mouth.

"Just give me the sword and give you two months." The emperor's voice was light and cold, and his eyes were a little ethereal, "Xiandao is waiting for someone who is destined, and I am the person who is destined." ”

After that, he waved his sleeves.

Han Hong understood, had to kowtow and retreat, and went out of the palace gate Liu Meng came to ask, "My lord, Cha Qi and the others have been pressed to the edict, can you go now?" ”

"No," Han Hong said, "Go home." ”

Pei Zhen's injury has not healed yet, and the output of spiritual power is recovering, but the process is slow.

She held the Penglai sword in her arms and wiped it carefully, and when she saw Han Hong coming back, she was pleasantly surprised, "Husband is back?" So Cha Qi can go to prison? ”

Han Hong nodded indiscriminately, walked quickly to her, and his gaze moved from the Penglai Sword to her face, "Ah Zhen, the person who grabbed the sword has been found." ”

"Who?"

"It's the emperor."

Pei Zhen was surprised, and asked after a while, "What does the emperor want Penglai to do?" ”

Han Hong sighed faintly and told Pei Zhen what Wang Chaoen had said, "The emperor handed over this life to me, and let me present the ancient sword within two months." Because of Cha Qi's incident, I have already entrusted the ancient sword to the Tang family."

What should I do when the two-month deadline arrives, Han Hong didn't tell Pei Zhen, he only asked: "Penglai Immortal Island, do you know?" And the map hidden in the sword, you can see? ”

Pei Zhen looked at the hope in Han Hong's eyes and shook his head slowly.

"I don't know Penglai Immortal Island, and I don't know what the map is, husband, are you really talking about Penglai Sword?"

The last glimmer of hope in Han Hong's eyes shattered, and he sat on the small couch by the window helplessly, "How can this be?" ”

He also thought that Penglai was Pei Zhen's life, and he couldn't hand it over, but if he could know how to go to Penglai Immortal Island and where the map was, he would be handed over to the palace, and he would barely be able to hand it over.

But now?

He extinguished the golden water and pressed down Cha Qi, but everything was like a trap, he put himself in a rope and was easily strangled by the neck.

Han Hong looked at the Penglai sword in Pei Zhen's arms, the sword body was glowing with cold air, there was no pretentiousness all over the body, and the cyan sword spike tied to the hilt of the sword was quietly placed on the sword body, "Can you still make the same sword?" ”

After asking, I shook my head.

Hundreds of years of ancient swords, how can the current swordsmiths make them, and they can still pass through the palace?

Pei Zhen stretched out his hand and held his hand, "Husband, I really don't know about Penglai Immortal Island, if you have to do it in the palace, you will hand Penglai into the palace." ”

She said lightly, and Han Hong's heart stirred up huge waves.

"What nonsense? It's something you're going to be around! The spiritual power is all in it! Handed over to the palace, they won't give up if they can't find the map, they will completely disassemble the sword, what will happen to your spiritual power when the time comes? Is it just scattered?! Han Hong was furious, "Don't say such things again!" Even if I am questioned and degraded, I will not hand over my sword to the palace! ”

He was like a furry wild cat, Pei Zhen wanted to caress his back, but he shook him off.

"Bring me the sword, I'll find it myself! Maybe you'll find it! Han Hong took it and glared at Pei Zhen, "From today on, I will look at the sword, you are not allowed to hold it casually!" ”

Anti-thief the same.

Pei Zhen smiled, saw Han Hong look at the ancient sword, and picked a candle to look into the scabbard, and sighed, "I have been in this sword for many years, how can I not know that there is another mechanism?" Don't look at it, husband, there really isn't. ”

Han Hong's momentum slackened, and his face showed a helplessness that did not match the command of the Jinyi Guard.

"What then? Sword Saint Pei Fei didn't mention anything to you? ”

Pei Zhen recalled according to Han Hong's words, "I had spiritual sense by the side of the Sword Saint for a long time, and at that time, my consciousness was shallow, and I could only vaguely cooperate with the Sword Saint's swordsmanship, and nothing else could work. Even so, the Sword Master treated me like a treasure, he had no heirs, he often told people that I was his child, and it was not until his old age that I could vaguely understand his words, but by then he was already in good spirits, and he only hugged me and said some confused words intermittently. When I first started my mind, I didn't understand it very well, but he kept saying what was true, true, and pointed at me as true, so I gave myself this name. But the matter of Penglai Xiandao, he may or may not mention it, I don't remember. ”

The twilight sword saint Pei Fei came to Han Hong's mind, hugging Pei Zhen, who was still a sword body, by his side, and babbling confused words at night. The ignorant Pei Zhen will only listen to everything he says, and what he understands can't understand, or remember or can't remember.

One person and one sword relied on each other for a long time, until Pei Fei died.

"When the Sword Master died, did he leave any last words? What he said is true, could it mean Penglai Immortal Island? ”

Pei Zhen shook his head, "At that time, he couldn't speak, but he looked at me for a long time before he died, and his nephew wanted to put the sword in his arms, but he didn't want it, and after shaking his head, the person went." As for Penglai Immortal Island, I really don't know. ”

Speaking of the past, Pei Zhen still has some sadness that has not been forgotten for hundreds of years, "For me, he is really a father, and every move is a teaching." ”

Sword Saint Pei Fei not only has superb swordsmanship, but also has a high wind and bright festival, calmed the bloody wind and rain in the rivers and lakes several times, and has a high prestige in the martial arts.

But the bamboo slips he left behind, talking about Penglai Immortal Island, what is going on?
