Chapter 158: Wu Xianxiao

Gu Xianmi and Zhou Shutong waited at the entrance of the hospital for about an hour, and just when their feet were numb, a commercial vehicle stopped at the entrance of the hospital. The door of the Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info business car opened, and Zhang Ze walked down from the car with an old man with a childish face and a handsome little man who was dressed as he entered.

"Shaowei real person!" Zhou Shutong saw Shaowei Zhenren getting out of the car, and immediately walked forward quickly, holding Shaowei Zhenren's hand with a respectful smile. And Gu Xianmi first said hello to Zhang Ze and Xiao Shuai, and then saluted Shaowei Zhenren.

The five of them hadn't seen each other in a while, and they had a lot to say to each other. For a while, the five of them stood next to the business car and talked about the past, chatting about each other's lives, and forgetting all other things at once.

Xiao Shuai, who was still the youngest and had the least common memories with the other four, reminded them. After he paid for the car, he said to Zhang Ze: "Master, why don't we go up and talk, didn't we come to visit Brother Zhou Jie?" ”

"Yes, yes, how is Xiaojie's situation? I heard Zhang Ze say that he was seriously injured this time, is he recovering well now? I came over in a hurry this time, and I didn't bring anything good, so I brought some ingredients from our Wudang faction to replenish my body. Shaowei Zhenren also immediately remembered the purpose of coming to the hospital, and immediately picked up the bag in his hand.

"Shaowei Zhenren, this is too troublesome for you, Zhou Jie is your junior, how dare we be." Zhou Shutong hurriedly said politely.

Shaowei Zhenren smiled directly and said: "This is what I brought for Zhou Jie, you don't have to be embarrassed, and it's not for you." ”

The five of them chatted and came to Zhou Jie's ward and Wang Dao's ward, at this time the employees of Wang Dao's company had already gone back, Xu Shaohua and Mo Xiaolan were all members of the Demon Hunter Alliance, so they naturally welcomed several people from the alliance to visit, and Sun Qi and Luo Xiao also had a simple exchange with Shaowei Zhenren, Zhang Ze and others under the introduction of Gu Xianmi.

After visiting Zhou Jie, who was still in a coma, and Director Wang, who was in a better condition, Shaowei Zhenren and his party had lunch with Gu Xianmi and others in a restaurant next to the hospital. Then Xu Shaohua, Mo Xiaolan, Sun Qi and Luo Xiao still went back to the hospital to take care of Wang Dao and Zhou Jie, while Shaowei Zhenren, Zhou Shutong, Zhang Ze, Gu Xianmi, and Xiao Shuai The five demon hunters took a car to the place where Gu Xianmi, Wang Dao, and Zhou Jie fought with the Onmyoji yesterday.

Since the place where they fought with the Onmyoji was located in the mountains and forests, the five of them got out of the car in a residential area under the mountain forest, and Gu Xianmi led the way to the mountains and forests.

Along the way, Gu Xianmi told the other four people in detail about the whole incident. started from Director Wang and Zhou Jie's first entry into the Changsha Tomb a few months ago, and continued to talk about the fierce battle last night.

When Gu Xianmi talked about the strange woodchip man who fought with Director Wang and Zhou Jie, Shaowei Zhenren's brows furrowed. However, he didn't interrupt Gu Xianmi's words, but waited for Gu Xianmi to describe the process of Wang Dao, Zhou Jie and the woodchip man before he said slowly: "This woodchip man's Five Elements Technique is a bit weird, and it is definitely not a simple character. Moreover, when you talk about the 'Five Elements Body Shaping Technique', it reminds me of a person, a person who has been dead for a long time. ”

"Shaowei Zhenren, who do you think of?" Zhou Shutong asked.

"Oh, you don't know this person, even I haven't seen him, he's from the Qing Dynasty." Shaowei Zhenren stroked his beard and said.

"Qing Dynasty people?! It's been dead for at least a hundred years, right? Gu Xianmi asked in surprise.

"That's right, to be precise, he should have been dead for one hundred and thirty-nine years, his name is Wu Xianxiao, and he is the general of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom." Shaowei Zhenren said.

"Taiping Heavenly Kingdom?! I remember that the last time we Demon Hunters had a duel with the Onmyoji was during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Shaowei Zhenren, in this way, the soul hidden in this wood chip man is the soul of an onmyoji? Zhou Shutong asked.

Shaowei Zhenren paused and said, "If the wood chip man really uses the 'Five Elements Body Shaping Technique', then it should be." Speaking of which, this Wu Xianxiao still has a lot to do with my Wudang faction. According to the literature in our faction, Wu Xianxiao was once the righteous son of an elder of the Wudang faction, and grew up in Wudang Mountain. When he was twelve years old, his father-in-law died in the war, and he also lost contact with our Wudang faction in the war.

When he entered the field of vision of my Wudang faction again, he was already a general under the command of Li Wencai, the rest of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Moreover, he has also become a sworn enemy of our demon hunters, an onmyoji. And the technique of 'Five Elements Body Shaping' is a technique he created by combining the spirit technique of my Wudang School and the Five Elements technique of the Onmyoji. Not only that, but he also used the 'Five Elements Body Shaping' technique to kill the head of my Wudang faction at the time.

In 1871, the last Taiping army was surrounded by the Qing army, and the Taiping army suffered heavy casualties, while Wu Xianxiao escaped with his own skills. However, although he escaped from the encirclement of the Qing army, he was blocked by three demon hunters of our Wudang faction on the mountain road from Guiyang to Chengdu.

In that battle, Wu Xianxiao once again demonstrated the power of his unique 'Five Elements Body Shaping' technique, and two of the three demon hunters of our faction died on the spot, and the remaining one died a week after returning to Wudang Mountain. However, Wu Xianxiao did not get better, he was killed on the spot by the last Wudang disciple at the cost of serious injuries. ”

After Shaowei Zhenren finished speaking, everyone fell into silence. For the last big showdown between the Demon Hunter and the Onmyoji, the other four also know something. The duel that arose due to the Tianping Heavenly Kingdom Rebellion was extremely tragic from the beginning, perhaps because the Onmyoji forces felt that this was the best chance for them to re-emerge after hundreds of years away from the stage of history. Since the Taiping army besieged Changsha City, the masters of the Onmyoji have frequently appeared in the Taiping army.

At that time, because the demon hunters were not prepared for the sudden large-scale appearance of the Onmyoji, as a result, many demon hunters died in the early stage of the duel because they were outnumbered. However, with the rise of the Hunan army and the serious disagreements within the Taiping army, the external environment in which the Onmyoji was located began to deteriorate sharply, and the demon hunter took the opportunity to bring back the disadvantage.

In July 1864, Zeng Guoquan led his troops to attack Nanjing, and the Taiping Rebellion came to an end. And the counterattack of the Onmyoji forces that arose with the Balance Heavenly Kingdom Movement also failed. After that, it entered the stage where the demon hunter implemented the grass cutting and rooting plan for the onmyoji. Fifteen years later, in 1879, almost all the Onmyoji who had participated in the Taiping Rebellion were slaughtered by demon hunters. After more than a hundred years, the power of the Onmyoji seemed to have disappeared from this world, and except for a few onmyoji, the demon hunters almost never encountered the onmyoji again. This is also the reason why many members of the Demon Hunter Alliance today believe that Onmyoji has long been extinct.

The war more than a hundred years ago not only brought the Onmyoji forces to an end, but also caused great harm to the demon hunters, and many demon hunter sects and families were cut off from the inheritance. It can be said that the supernatural world, which was ruled by onmyoji and demon hunters in turn, has slowly entered decline since then. If there was no "Demon Hunter Alliance" established by the sages in the 22nd year of the Republic of China, I am afraid that the Demon Hunter would have become a historical term during the War of Resistance Against Japan.

When Shaowei Zhenren talked about the battle between Wu Xianxiao and Wudang disciples as the rest of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Zhou Shutong, Zhang Ze, and Gu Xianmi all remembered the records they had seen in the books. Although they did not experience that cruel era, they have always had enough reverence in the determination of that great pair of casualties on both sides.

In their minds, they don't want to experience that kind of duel anyway. But according to what Shaowei Zhenren said, if the wood chip man who was controlled by the Onmyoji was Wu Xianxiao back then, then it seems that it is not impossible for the demon hunter and the onmyoji to have a showdown again.

"Wait, that's not right. Shaowei Zhenren, as far as I know, the personal strength of the demon hunter back then was much stronger than ours. So, what kind of strength did the three martial juniors who intercepted and killed Wu Xianxiao on the mountain road be? At this time, Gu Xianmi suddenly broke the silence and asked.

"I don't know much about that, but I don't think they're weak. Because the last Wudang disciple who died of serious injuries was my master's younger brother, according to the records of the faction, my uncle entered the Wudang faction since he was a child, and his talent was excellent, and he was originally one of the candidates for the head of the sect. Although he was only in his early 30s when he passed away, he was also one of the masters of the younger generation of our school at that time. Shaowei Zhenren replied.

Gu Xianmi nodded, and then said, "That's a little wrong. Let's think about it, if the three martial juniors at that time had the strength of Shaowei Zhenren's uncle, or relatively poor, then the combined strength of the three of them should be enough to kill the thousand-year-old zombie. However, after encountering Wu Xianxiao, who used the 'Five Elements Body Shaping Technique', they still suffered such heavy casualties. So why did Director Wang and Zhou Jie drive him away yesterday when they met the wood chip man who used the 'Five Elements Body Shaping Technique', they only paid the price of one minor injury and one serious injury? ”
