["I want revenge. Jiang Kunlun's eyes finally had a glimmer of life, "Recently, I heard that the Ancient Mirror Gate was destroyed, I, I-I want to help you investigate the truth and do my best." ”】

"You want a secluded place to grow herbs?"

Xue Rong heard that Chen Jian had something to look for him, so he hurriedly ended his martial arts training, thinking that there was some heavy news, but it sounded like Chen Jian's private matter.

"Now that you're investigating the case, you still have this kind of leisure?"

"The place where I live is too noisy, I want to stay in this quiet place," Chen Jian said, "and this matter has something to do with the Ancient Mirror Gate." ”

"Oh, why do you say that?"

"The key to the Ancient Mirror Gate is Liu Xingjue, and he is a well-known alchemist. ”

"Of course I understand this, but does it have anything to do with you planting herbs because he is an alchemist? I remember hearing a friend say before that it takes a long time to grow herbs, and the time for a martial arts conference is simply not enough, is it possible that you are ready to stay in Wudang all the time?"

"You don't understand this," Chen Jian said, "It is the so-called 'immersive' in the investigation of the case - a way of investigating the case by Jinyiwei, and the situation is speculated through an in-depth understanding of the living habits and character qualities of key people." Since Liu Xingjue is an alchemist and is proficient in the cultivation of herbs, I also have to imitate it appropriately, and maybe I can learn something from it. ”

Xue Rong thought about it, and always felt that Chen Jianyi was not here, but because of his identity, he said: "I don't know much about the ownership of the herb field in the sect, but one of my subordinates knows this very well, I can introduce him to you, since you want to grow herbs, you should need others to counsel, if you don't understand anything, you can ask him, he was a herb wizard back then." ”

"That's just right!" Chen Jian said, "Can you take me to see him now?"

"Yes, come with me. ”

Xue Rong immediately set off and led Chen Jian out.

They walked through the crowded streets, and then turned into the forest path, where a lot of bamboos were planted, and the handsome appearance added life to the mountain forest.

"That guy lives here?"

"That's right. Xue Rong replied, "I thought about it carefully just now, and Chen Shaoxia seems to have had a relationship with him. ”

"Really?"

There are so many people who have had a relationship with Chen Jian that he doesn't know who he is going to see next. But since Xue Rong knew that he had met him, it was likely that something happened in Qianshan at that time.

"Is that the guard beside you?Jiang Kunlun?" Chen Jian remembered that he was called a "prodigy" by the people of the North, and the martial arts he displayed were quite sophisticated.

"Yes, he's almost thirty years old, and he's called a prodigy. Xue Rong thought of Jiang Kunlun and smiled, "That was more than ten years ago, and now he has assumed the pseudonym 'Cheng Ken' and joined my disciples." ”

"What's going on?"

"Alas," Xue Rong said, "you go and ask him yourself, I don't know if he wants to tell you." However, please keep his pseudonym secret. ”

"Good. ”

Hearing that the hidden truth behind it was quite bitter, Chen Jian stopped asking.

Neither of them spoke for the rest of the journey. Xue Rong thought about what happened to Jiang Kunlun eleven years ago, and couldn't help but feel sad.

At that time, the high-spirited teenager was only eighteen years old, and he was in his prime and full of enthusiasm. He came to the famous Dugu Distant Mountain as a guest.

Dugu Distant Mountain is a big mountain in the north of Yunmengze, named after the surname of the original inhabitants in the mountain - "Dugu". The Dugu Heart Method is a well-known Qi Gathering Heart Method in Middle-earth, and the Qi Concentration Heart Method is to hide one's own strength in order to achieve the offensive effect of surprise and unpreparedness.

The method of accumulating qi does not seek diligence, but only talent. The cultivation method of the Dugu Heart Method is widely spread in Yunmengze, but few people can master it. Hearing that Jiang Kunlun, who had mastered the mental method, intended to challenge, he came to Dugu Distant Mountain alone. The people of the Dugu family were warm and generous, and they entertained this famous "prodigy", and Jiang Kunlun also made many friends of different ages in Dugu Yuanshan.

He practiced in Dugu Distant Mountain for half a month, and miraculously mastered the Qi Concentration Heart Method, which alarmed the elders of the Dugu family.

The elder held a banquet and expressed his willingness to marry Dugu Manxu, the wisest woman in the family, to him.

Jiang Kunlun agreed.

Because he had long fallen in love with the woman who was two years older than himself—

"Later......" Jiang Kunlun sighed, like a fish in his throat, "something happened later." ”

"What's going on?"

Chen Jian and Jiang Kunlun were sitting in the bamboo pavilion at this time, listening to him tell the past.

He guessed that Dugu Man was likely to die unfortunately, so that Jiang Kunlun was willing to fall and no longer practice martial arts. But Jiang Kunlun's next words caught his attention.

"Not long after the marriage agreement was made, we got married," Jiang Kunlun recalled the prosperity of the newlywed, and said with a wry smile, "One night not long after, the Dugu family was wiped out. ”

Chen Jian's head turned quickly, he thought he was just listening to a tragic love story, and he couldn't imagine that there was a bloody truth behind it!

The Dugu family was destroyed eleven years ago, and there was a long time between it and the ancient mirror gate, is there a connection between them? Chen Jian was not sure.

"Is it the enemy?"

Jiang Kunlun didn't seem to hear Chen Jian's question, and said to himself: "I saw the figure of the exterminator, wearing a black robe, killing all the people of the Dugu family like cutting rice, and then the man asked me if I was from the Dugu family; The man killed Duguman and let me go......"

Jiang Kunlun's voice trembled more and more, his throat seemed to burst at any moment, and a thin breath squeezed out of his mouth.

"I ...... What kind of prodigy am I?" he clenched his fists, his nails digging into his palms, "I should have protected Xiao Man, but I saw the Door Destroyer—when I faced that guy, I just wanted to run away, and run as far away as possible." I'm almost—I'm almost crying to the man, I'm not alone. I still remember Xiao Man's eyes, her ghost kept questioning me-

"Why don't you save me?"

Jiang Kunlun covered his head in annoyance.

After a long time.

"This is what happened back then," he said, "I understood that I was not ashamed of the identity of the 'warrior' and the honor of the 'knight', so I withdrew the title of 'Honored Warrior', threw myself into the sect of Xue Rong's protector, and hid in Wudang as Cheng Ken." I don't know who I'm avoiding either, maybe it's the lonely ghost of the Dugu family. ”

"But you haven't left the rivers and lakes yet, but joined Wudang. ”

"I want revenge. Jiang Kunlun's eyes finally had a glimmer of life, "Recently, I heard that the Ancient Mirror Gate was destroyed, I, I-I want to help you investigate the truth and do my best." ”

"Good. Chen Jian's eyes were a little moist, he frowned, and said, "First of all, I need a field of herbs that is hidden enough. ”
