Chapter 26: The Frozen Beauty

"You said that Jing Tong is your senior brother, and you are the second junior brother, so why did Dugu Lezhang only teach you ten questions about the sword technique, but not Jing Tong?"

Zhou Tianci's question is not unreasonable, such as the sword saint Dugu Lezhang, a famous swordsman, a celebrity in the rivers and lakes with a stable status in the town, the apprentice is about principles and talents, and the big disciple is the successor or inheritance in the future, but why did the ten questions of the sword trick be passed on to Ling Huqing, but not to Jing Tong, who has the identity of the heir?

Ling Huqing's head turned quickly, and he didn't answer Zhou Tianci's question directly, but asked rhetorically: "Then do you know why Master has asked Little Senior Sister to accompany Senior Brother to the Empty Knowledge Valley to protect you, and why did he send me out?"

Zhou Tianci was speechless when he heard this, he didn't think about this question, he shook his head and waited for Ling Huqing's answer, Ling Huqing sold a pass and said: "My master is a famous sword saint, needless to say that his swordsmanship is superb, but he was the captain and head of the Silver Light Guardian Team of the Dragon Yin Empire at the beginning, why do you say this? Let me tell you, I am not bragging to my master." ”

Ling Huqing patted Zhou Tianci's shoulder, and Zhou Tianci turned his head to glance at Ling Huqing and motioned to continue.

"I want to tell you that although my master has lived in the Sword Cloud Canyon for a long time, he knows everything about the entire Zhongzhou Continent, including the demonic qi in my senior brother's body. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the demon knife on Zhou Tianci's back and continued, "I heard from the master that the demonic qi in the senior brother's body has something to do with your demon knife. ”

Zhou Tianci said in his heart when he heard this: "I thought it would be related, but I didn't have the slightest thought, I couldn't remember it at all, it seems that the Sword Saint should know something about Demon Cloud." ”

Ling Huqing continued: "Back then, the demon cloud cast the demon knife, the day the knife was formed, the blood was full of blood, the killing was non-stop, people couldn't stand the bewitchment of the demon knife at all, and the demon cloud predecessors were not spared, his wife Evil Moon cast a sword, I heard that it was cast to subdue the demon knife, but it was still fruitless, and finally the demon people stepped forward and became the guardian of the demon knife. ”

"Having said so much, the question has run so far, how can you pull it back?"

Zhou Tianci listened with great interest, but his footsteps still didn't stop, and suddenly Ling Huqing stopped, looked at the area in front of him, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Where are you going?"

Zhou Tianci said without thinking: "Yanyu Building is looking for the witch Qingyan." ”

Ling Huqing blurted out: "Eh! You're crazy, aren't you?"

Zhou Tianci shook his head and said, "I'm not crazy, if you don't dare to go, I'll go by myself." ”

"My little sword saint Ling Hu Qing will be afraid? impossible!

As he spoke, he moved towards the Yanyu Tower, and Zhou Tianci hurriedly asked, "The Demon Cloud Casting Knife you just mentioned is the one I was carrying?"

Ling Huqing nodded and said, "That's right!

"What happened then?"

"Later, the demon people gradually withered, and the Jing family was the blood of the half-demon clan, and reluctantly took over the task of guarding the demon knife, although he was not bewitched by the demon knife, but he was devoured by the demon qi, and the descendants could not shake off the entanglement of the demon qi. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Tianci seemed to know the purpose of Dugu Lezhang to let Jing Tong go to the Empty Knowledge Valley, and hurriedly said: "From the meaning of your words, I understand the hard work of the Sword Saint, he seems to have deliberately let Jing Tong go to the Empty Knowledge Valley. ”

Ling Huqing patted Zhou Tianci's shoulder hard, raised his voice and said excitedly: "Don't be stupid! Brother, I guessed the point at once, that's right, the purpose of the master to let the senior brother go to the Empty Knowledge Valley was to let him disperse the demonic qi, and he had no choice but to say the task." ”

"Master sent me out after seeing my senior brother and sister out of the Sword Cloud Canyon, and when I was leaving, Master told me the recipe for the first two of the ten questions of the Sword Technique. ”

said very proudly: "Am I not very good, I have used the first two questions like fire in the past few days." ”

Zhou Tianci ignored it, stopped and looked up at the dilapidated Yanyu Building in front of him, and blurted out: "This was not the case here before!"

Hearing this, Ling Huqing pointed to Yanyulou and said, "That's how I was born here, we should be about the same age, could it be that you have seen the original appearance of this place?"

Zhou Tianci nodded and said, "That's right." This is the largest fireworks place and the most prosperous city in the entire Zhongzhou continent. ”

"You're talking about sixty years ago, brother, did you take the wrong medicine, or did you have a bad brain??"

Before Ling Huqing finished speaking, he heard Zhou Tianci say: "The brain is really not good. ”

Before the words fell, he had already walked into the Yanyu Building, and when Ling Huqing saw this, he hurriedly shouted: "The Yanyu Building is a forbidden place, aren't you afraid of death?"

After speaking, he hesitated, but he had no choice but to follow in, but after entering the Yanyu Building, he could no longer find Zhou Tianci's figure.

"It's strange that this kid is so fast?"

Ling Huqing was a little surprised, and shouted tentatively, "Brother Zhou Tianci, where are you? Answer me!"

After waiting for a while, there was still no reply, except for his own echo, so that Hu Qing did not hear any other sound.

Zhou Tianci had already stepped into the fog at this time, although he walked through the same door as Ling Huqing, but he walked into two different time periods, and the bright smoke and rain building reappeared in front of his eyes, "Zhou Gongzi, how long have you not come?

Zhou Tianci was pushed upstairs, and Zhou Tianci, who didn't know what was going on, was full of doubts, "How can there be such a place in such a dilapidated scene?"

At this time, a little girl pulled the corner of Zhou Tianci's clothes and reminded: "Don't go!"

Zhou Tianci turned his head to look at the little girl behind him, the little girl's clothes were clean and neat, and a pair of eyes that could see through the world seemed to have some kind of magic, and that magic was extremely penetrating, directly penetrating Zhou Tianci's heart.

"The view in front of me is not real. ”

The figure and words of the little girl were drowned in the noisy crowd, and the woman with heavy makeup and flowers gathered around Zhou Tianci, fiddling with her posture, and the aroma of rouge drilled into Zhou Tianci's snort.

"I would love this kind of place!"

Zhou Tianci's eyes were shook, the color in front of him filled his pupils, his hands unconsciously began to hug left and right, and suddenly a powerful arm grabbed Zhou Tianci's saber demon cloud, Zhou Tianci suddenly woke up and held down the arm fiercely and scolded: "Release my knife!"

"Didn't you already give me this knife!"

The owner of that arm looked at Zhou Tianci very confidently, Zhou Tianci's heart twitched, he recognized the guy in front of him, although he still couldn't name it, but he Zhou Tianci remembered, a very familiar person.

"Who are you?"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, your subordinate Situ Fei, don't you know me?"

Situ Fei's hand still didn't let go of the demon knife, the girls still threw themselves into Zhou Tianci's arms, and suddenly the demon knife pulsated, the frequency was surprisingly consistent with Zhou Tianci's heartbeat, and the illusory scene in front of him was actually dispersed by the pulse of the demon knife, and the last thing Zhou Tianci saw was Situ Fei's satisfied smile that gradually dissipated.

Zhou Tianci looked at his saber demon cloud, and said to himself: "I didn't expect you to save me from the illusion!"

The demon knife has been used by Situ Fei for many years, although it is an evil thing, it also retains the will of the user, and Situ Fei, who conjured up at the critical moment, rescued Zhou Tianci from his illusion.

Yesterday, in the Yinshan Smoke and Rain Building, the witch Qingyan stayed secretly;

The witch didn't know where to go, and the orphan girl in the ruined building was cold and rainy.

The sky gradually darkened, I don't know when it began to rain lightly, the howling north wind poured into the smoke and rain building through the loopholes in the remnant wall, the dust was everywhere, Zhou Tianci stepped on the creaking rotten wooden stairs step by step and carefully went up to the second floor, there seemed to be a force pushing himself forward, and after turning two corners on the second floor, he saw rows of broken houses, and the rotten walls still had traces of fire.

"So this place has changed!"

Zhou Tianci said lightly, at this time, there was the sound of footsteps going up the stairs behind him, and the floor was trampled on creakingly, Ling Huqing shouted Zhou Tianci's name while looking around, Zhou Tianci saw Ling Huqing go up to the second floor and greeted him to come over, but Ling Huqing turned a blind eye to himself, and was still looking for himself in front of him.

Zhou Tianci looked at his arm, then at his body, and finally slapped himself violently, his face was whipped and painful, only then did he make sure that he was not dreaming and not dying, "How can this be?

Zhou Tianci, who was puzzled, walked over to Ling Huqing, the two of them were in the same room, Zhou Tianci could see Ling Huqing, and could hear Ling Huqing's shouts, but Ling Huqing couldn't see or hear Zhou Tianci.

Zhou Tianci suddenly stretched out his hand and slammed it towards Ling Huqing, but before his hand fell, a young voice behind him reminded: "If you slap him down, he may never wake up again." ”

Zhou Tianci turned around when he heard the sound, and saw a little girl in her teens standing behind her, dressed in clean clothes, and her eyes that seemed to be full of magic made Zhou Tianci wake up suddenly, pointing at the little girl and saying, "You were the one who woke up the demon sword and demon cloud just now?"

Zhou Tianci was eager to know more about himself, and seemed to have forgotten that Ling Huqing was still trapped in the magic formula.

The little girl revealed her dislike for Zhou Tianci from the inside out, glanced at Zhou Tianci, and said, "Not only do you have no memory, but your brain is also broken." ”

"How do you know I have no memory?

After Zhou Tianci finished speaking, he didn't believe what he had just said, how could a witch be a child, and hurriedly changed his words: "No, how can a witch be a child!"

The little girl didn't argue, approached Zhou Tianci and said, "I know many things about you, and I also know many things on this continent, such as his affairs. ”

The little girl pointed to Ling Huqing, who was still looking for her, and said: "He is the second disciple of the Sword Saint Dugu Movement, and he has given himself the nickname Little Sword Saint, with excellent talent, flexible mind, and quick thinking, but he just can't step through the hurdle of his senior brother." ”

"You mean Jing Tong?"

If Ling Huqing is a genius that is rare in a hundred years, then Jing Tong is a genius that is rare in five hundred years, and what makes Huqing unconvinced is that he feels that he is no worse than Jing Tong. ”

Zhou Tianci said without thinking: "I also think that Ling Huqing is no worse than Jing Tong." ”

The little girl smiled and said, "If you can't remember it, forget it, why is your brain gone?"

Zhou Tianci looked at the little girl puzzled, and said, "You little kid, don't talk nonsense, what evidence does it have for you to say that Jing Biling Huqing is talented?"

The little girl was speechless, and thought for a while before she spoke: "How could the Sword Saint Dugu Movement go wrong." ”

Zhou Tianci cut and said, "I knew that you can't have any high opinions as a child." ”

Speaking of which, Zhou Tianci suddenly discovered a problem, a place with deep ghosts in the wilderness. Why did she appear here, thinking that this hand had been quietly held on the demon cloud, she asked cautiously, "Who are you?

The little girl sat down, and a chair grew out of thin air under her buttocks, and said, "It doesn't matter who I am! The important thing is that I know everything in this world...... I don't know. ”

"You brag, everything?"

Zhou Tianci went through the things in his mind and asked, "Then let me ask you, do you know anything about the Bai family?"

The little girl said unashamedly: "It's just to blame." ”

Zhou Tianci was even more confused when he heard this, and asked: "What is to blame, you have made it clear." ”

The little girl waved her hand and said, "You big man is really annoying, can you understand what I told you?"
