Chapter 14: Ascension to Immortals
Gongsun Lan picked up his two swords from the ground again, and then flicked his fingers back, the two swords were gone, and even from the outside, he couldn't see where the two swords were hidden.
Gongsun Lan put away the two short swords, swept Xie Guhong, and then walked forward, but Xie Guhong followed unhurriedly; Women are always unwilling to be lonely, if they don't talk to people for a long time, they will go crazy, so if they can't go ten miles, Gongsun Lan's pace has slowed down, and she gradually walks side by side with Xie Guhong. After another ten miles, Gongsun Lan finally said, "What are you going to do to find Ximen to blow snow?" You know, ordinary people can't hide. ”
Xie Guhong said: "I need to get two things, maybe Ximen Blowing Snow's sword is one of them." ”
Gongsun Lan was very curious and said, "His sword, the people he saw, are already dead, and you will die too." ”
Xie Guhong said: "I have to see it." ”
Gongsun Lan frowned when she heard this, this woman is good anywhere, but even the appearance when she frowned looked very good, and said, "You have to see it?" ”
Xie Guhong said: "You have to see it!" ”
After a moment of silence, Gongsun Lan said again: "Can I not watch it." ”
Xie Guhong swept her and said, "Okay, I'll arrive at Wanmei Villa, you can go." ”
Gongsun Lan smiled, still smiling like a fairy, and said, "That's good." After a pause, he continued, "You just said that you need two things. Simon's sword is the same, but what about the other? ”
Xie Guhong said: "I'm not sure. His sword is what I need, but I'll have to look at it to find out. As for the other one. It could also be a sword, Ye Gucheng's sword. ”
Gongsun Lan was a little confused, because when today, several recognized masters, and maybe even the number one master in the world, are Ye Gucheng, and the only one who can compete with Ye Gucheng is probably Ximen Blowing Snow.
Gongsun Lan's expression at this moment was almost the same as Lu Xiaofeng's, and she said, "Are you serious? ”
Xie Guhong said: "It's true. By this time they had already walked out of the ancient road in the suburbs. The hills on both sides were also left behind by the two, and their eyes were much brighter, and the land was getting more and more yellow, and even began to turn a little red. Surrounded by the green grass on both sides, it was as if there was a giant holding a sharp sword, cutting a long bloody hole out of the green skin on the earth.
Far into the distance. It was as if at the foot of several great mountains, there was a city, and this city was hidden between the mountains, and only one corner was exposed. It's hard to see how big it is.
Xie Guhong said: "What kind of place is that?" ”
Gongsun Lan said: "Xizhen." ”
Xie Guhong said: "How long is it until Wanmei Villa?" ”
Gongsun Lan said: "It's not far away, let's go for another three or two days, and we will definitely be able to arrive." Today we are resting in Westtown. ”
Xie Guhong nodded, and walked quickly towards Xizhen with Gongsun Lan. As the saying goes, looking at the mountains runs dead horses. That is, if you see a big mountain as far as your eye can see. It doesn't seem too far, but even if you ride a fast horse, it will be a long, long time to get there. This is the situation they are in now, despite the speed of their feet, but they still walked for half a day to reach the city.
At this time, it was already afternoon, and there were few pedestrians at the city gate, only on the stool of a tea shop next to it, there was still a person sitting, this person was obviously a tea owner and shopkeeper. Supporting himself on the table with his elbows, after seeing Xie Guhong and Gongsun Lan, he shouted weakly: "Drink tea, a penny and a bowl, a big bowl of tea to quench your thirst!" Seeing the two people walking in front of their simple tea shop, they didn't mean to stop, and the tea owner and shopkeeper didn't shout, but continued to support his arms on the table, slowly dozing.
There are still a few soldiers at the door, standing under the shade of the city wall, but they dare not sleep, because under the mat pergola next to them, there is also a door, so these soldiers, some leaning on the city wall, with the help of the shade of the wall to cool themselves, and some squatting on the ground, looking at the eternal scenery around them.
At this moment, all of a sudden, they saw Xie Guhong and the others, to be precise, they looked at Gongsun Lan, who made the beautiful flowers always steal more people's attention, but these soldiers also looked at it, and none of them were ruffians, so there was no drama of stepping forward to tease.
Entering the city, Xie Guhong and Gongsun Lan went to an inn and asked for two upper rooms, one for each person, and then ordered a few small dishes in the restaurant in front of them and began to eat and drink.
Gongsun Lan glanced at Xie Guhong and said, "Aren't you afraid that I will run away in the middle of the night?" ”
Xie Guhong took a bite of food and said, "You can't run." ”
Gongsun Lan smiled slightly and said, "Are you so sure?" ”
Xie Guhong nodded and said, "You are being chased and killed by Tsing Yi Lou now, and you just need a safe place." ”
Gongsun Lan smiled even more and said, "Yes, the person who dares to see the sword in Ximen Blowing Snow must be extremely safe by his side." ”
Xie Guhong shook his head and said, "This may not be, the people in Tsing Yi Lou may not know me." ”
Gongsun Lan let out an "oh" and said, "As long as you know, they won't dare to kill me?" ”
Xie Guhong said: "It depends on who it is?" Speaking of this, the shopkeeper with a pockmarked face came up with a wine jug, and shouted in his mouth: "A pot of good Du Kang." Objectively, you have all the food and drink. ”
Xie Guhong pointed to the shopkeeper and said, "Take him as an example, others dare not do it, but he must dare, and he has already done so?" ”
Gongsun Lan looked at the shopkeeper differently and said, "You said he was from Tsing Yi Building?" ”
Xiao Er of the pockmarked face shop was full of questions, and when he saw Xie Guhong pointing at him and talking, he stopped and said, "Objective? You mean me? ”
Xie Guhong nodded and said, "Yes, you are in Tsing Yi Building, what floor is your name?" ”
Xiao Er scratched the back of his head and said: "Objective, this is a time-honored brand in Xizhen, Kanshan Inn, not Tsing Yi Lou." ”
Gongsun Lan smiled coquettishly, put down his chopsticks, and said, "You see that his steps are vain, his breath is short, and he is definitely not a person who practices martial arts." Xie Daxia is afraid that he will be out of sight this time. As he spoke, he threw out a piece of loose silver, and after the shopkeeper took it, he thanked him again and again, and retreated with joy on his face.
Xie Guhong didn't speak, poured himself a glass of wine and drank it, Gongsun Lan saw him like this, smiled slightly, and said: "Tsing Yi Lou can do anything, including poison, of course, but Xie Daxia also drank wine at this time, so I'm not afraid that what you said is true?" ”
Xie Guhong put down the wine glass, ate the roasted tofu again, and then said: "I eat poison, like living water, even if poison is sprinkled in the middle, the water flows down, and the poison is gone in an instant." As he spoke, he drank a glass of wine again and said, "It's you, the first few times after being chased by Tsing Yi Lou, you have developed a habit, because they sent all martial arts masters, so if someone quietly poisons them, it will be easy to get it." ”
Gongsun Lan's face changed slightly, because Xie Guhong was right, he had been ambushed four times in a row in the past month, three frontal battles, these seven times, he killed a total of nine people, these nine people With the passage of time, their martial arts have become stronger and stronger, from the beginning, he was just a sword, he could kill the old woman, and to the last one, that is, before he met Xie Guhong, the boss Mo who came to chase and kill, he really took a lot of effort to kill the other party.
Gongsun Lan knows that Tsing Yi Lou may be the most secret place in the rivers and lakes, a place dedicated to killing people, it is said that there are a total of one hundred and eight floors in the world, and there are one hundred and eight people in each building. And these people, except for the owner of Tsing Yi Building, no one knows. It may be ordinary people who are not visible in the rivers and lakes, it may be the martial arts heroes in the rivers and lakes, or the masters of the predecessors. As long as Tsing Yi Lou wants to kill people, so far, there has never been a failure. Although some people in the building died, in the end, the goal will be accomplished.
Gongsun Lan said: "Then why didn't you remind me when I just ate the food, but only told me after he came up?" ”
Xie Guhong said: "That's because there is a kind of poison, called Shengxian San, which needs wine as a medicine to become highly poisonous. I see that after you saw me, you said a few words and started to do it, the anger is so big, it should moisten your lungs. With that, he drank another glass of wine.
Gongsun Lan stared at Xie Guhong's wine glass and said, "Are you really not afraid of this poison?" ”
Xie Guhong said: "I'm not afraid. ”
Gongsun Lan said: "Then how do you know that there is such a poison in the world?" ”
Xie Guhong said: "Because of Lu Xiaofeng." ”
Gongsun Lan Daqi let out an "oh" and said, "He doesn't seem to be good at detoxification." ”
Xie Guhong said: "He is not good at detoxification, but he has friends all over the world, and he also knows the Tang Sect in Shuzhong. As he spoke, he took another bite of food and continued: "Take this roasted tofu as an example, it seems that some salt has not yet melted, but in fact, this side is Shengxian San, which is colorless and tasteless, but when you put it in the dish, it will be slightly salty, and when you eat it, you will only think that it is salt that has not melted." ”
Gongsun Lan nodded and said, "It seems that you are right." ”
She already had to believe it, because from beginning to end, the conversation between the two people at the dinner table didn't seem to have any intention of avoiding others. So others can naturally hear it, the previous shopkeeper knocked on the table when Xie Guhong said the three words "Shengxian San", and after a while, there were two people in the small shop, which was already empty. One at the front door and one at the back door. And in each person's hand, they are holding an unusual, pitch-black bamboo tube. (To be continued.) )
