Bai Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, I came to find you and Senior Sister Chu and ask you two if you would like to go to that secret mansion with us." ”

Chu Yi frowned slightly, and said, "Senior Brother Bai, you said that exploring the secret mansion is full of dangers, and the competition is also very fierce. Our two new disciples with a heavy pulse will drag you down if we go with you?"

Bai Xuan shook his head and said with a smile: "Where is it." Among so many new disciples this year, I am most optimistic about you and Senior Sister Chu. The two of you are both rare geniuses, and your strength cannot be measured by the standards of new disciples at all, and the future is limitless. As your fellow brothers and sisters, it is also our responsibility to support and help you new disciples with a promising future. In the future, you will also do the same to your brothers and sisters. ”

Hearing this, Chu Yi and Chu Lingshan were both warm in their hearts, and they were very grateful to Bai Xuan. Chu Yi asked, "Senior Brother Bai, how many people have been determined to go to that secret mansion now?"

Bai Xuan said: "Counting me and the two of you, there are already nine people, including an inner disciple of the True Yuan Triple Cultivation, Shi Hang. We plan to get one more person, and we'll go when we're ten people old. ”

Chu Yi and Chu Lingshan glanced at each other, nodded, and then said to Bai: "Okay, Senior Brother Bai, we will go with you." ”

Bai Xuan's face turned happy, and he said, "Okay! Chu Yi, you are going to Wushengling to cultivate tomorrow, right? In this way, the day after tomorrow, I will come to you and Senior Sister Chu, and our group of people will discuss the preparations and plans together." ”

Chu Yi bowed his head slightly and said, "No problem, just do what Senior Brother Bai says." ”

The three of them talked for a while, and after they were full of wine and food, they left the restaurant, bathed in the afternoon sun, and strolled through the streets, preparing to return to Tianji Sect.

Just when the three of them walked past an old man on the side of the road, the old man who had been sitting there suddenly seemed to have seen a rare treasure, and his eyes, which were originally cloudy and godless, suddenly became extremely bright, and he raised his head sharply and stared directly at Chu Yi.

The old man's sudden suddenness made the three Chu Yi who walked by him slightly startled. Chu Yi turned his head to look at the old man, and found that he was still staring at him motionlessly, his eyes were wide open, and the look on his old face looked very weird, and even made people feel a little hairy.

Chu Lingshan also felt that something was wrong, and said cautiously: "This old man, you are... What's wrong?"

In the face of Chu Lingshan's inquiry, the old man was indifferent, as if he hadn't heard it at all, he was stunned motionless, staring at Chu Yi intently, like a puppet whose soul had been taken away.

Chu Yi was furious when the old man looked at him like this, and he felt irritable, and frowned: "Don't care about this weirdo, bad luck." Let's go. ”

Just as Chu Yi was about to leave, the old man suddenly shouted: "Sword, sword, that curse... It's the curse! It's back... The curse is back!"

Hearing the old man's shout, Chu Yi and Chu Lingshan suddenly froze in place, their pupils suddenly contracted, and in their hearts, they exploded in horror. And Bai Xuan on the side was still confused and didn't know why.

Chu Yi and Chu Lingshan have both seen the strange scene of Chu Yi's sword called Ghost Silence absorbing blood. At this time, when they heard the strange old man's shouting, they immediately thought of the strangeness of this evil sword!

Curses? What curses? Why does he say that the curse is back? What is the unknown origin of this sword called Devil's Silence?

What surprised them even more was that Chu Yi had obviously put the ghost in the Sumeru ring, and he didn't carry it on his back at all. This old man, who looked like an ordinary person, with a whole body and no spiritual power fluctuations, how did he know that Chu Yi had that sword?

After being stunned for a moment, Chu Yi said impatiently: "What curse? What kind of mess? Ling Shan, Senior Brother Bai, don't waste time on such a nonsense, trance-like weirdo, let's go back quickly!"

However, just as Chu Yi was about to step away, a soft, but firm and powerful little hand suddenly grabbed Chu Yi. Chu Yi was slightly startled, turned around, and saw that Chu Lingshan was holding his hand, and on the beautiful face that exuded a cold air, it was full of undoubted firmness at this time, and said, "Don't be in a hurry to go, Chu Yi." ”

After saying that, Chu Lingshan turned her head, squatted down, looked at the old man seriously, and asked, "Uncle, don't be afraid, calm down." Can you tell me, what do you feel? What happened to the sword?"

The old man shouted in panic, his whole body trembled, his eyes widened with a thick look of fear, as if he had seen a terrible demon slaughtering the world, and said, "That sword... The sword that had planted the curse and feasted on the blood of countless people! It was back! I knew, I knew... The curse cannot be shaken off, never in a lifetime! No matter how many years have passed... It's still coming to you!"

Although the old man's words were fragmented and chaotic, Chu Lingshan still maintained his patience and continued to ask, "Curse, what curse, has it ever appeared before?"

Chu Yi frowned impatiently, strode forward, grabbed the old man's collar, as if lifting a chicken, and threw him up violently, "bang", smashed on the wall behind him, and in his cruel eyes, an incomparably fierce light burst out, like a sharp sword, stabbing straight at the old man, his handsome face was full of fierceness, it looked very terrifying, and said viciously: "Old man, what are you talking nonsense?" I'm telling you, if you can't say anything useful, I'll keep your mouth shut forever!"

The incomparably fierce and vicious aura emanating from Chu Yi's body was like an evil dragon's roar, completely scaring the old man stupid, and the whole person froze there, as if he had lost his soul, and his body trembled violently.

"Okay, Chu Yi, what are you doing? Put the old man down!"

Seeing Chu Yi's reaction, Chu Lingshan and Bai Xuan were immediately shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to pull Chu Yi away. The old man pounced, fell heavily to the ground, and curled up in horror as if he had no strength in his body.

Under the persuasion of Chu Lingshan and Bai Xuan, Chu Yi gradually came back to his senses and calmed down. He exhaled a long breath, used his spiritual power, kept his mind clear, and said, "I'm sorry, I... I can't help but feel a little impulsive. ”

Chu Lingshan glanced at Chu Yi deeply, didn't say anything, squatted in front of the old man, and continued to ask him the meaning of what he just said with a pleasant face.

However, after Chu Yi's fierce fright, the old man didn't say a word at all, just trembling and curled up on the ground, ignoring the inquiries of the outside world at all, indifferent.

After patiently asking for a while, Chu Lingshan saw that the old man didn't react at all, so he had no choice but to give up and leave with Chu Yi and Bai Xuan.

After returning to the Tianji Sect, Chu Yi, Chu Lingshan and Bai Xuan separated and walked to their residence together.

Seeing that Bai Xuan had already walked away, Chu Yi sighed and said, "Lingshan, you want to ask me about... The sword thing, right?"

Chu Lingshan turned her head to look at Chu Yi, her eyes were very serious, her eyes were full of worry and disgust, and said, "You also know, Chu Yi? Then you still can't tell me honestly, what is going on with that sword? Why are you hiding it from me on such a serious issue? We are already partners in hardships and hardships, right? This sword is so strange, why don't you tell me? This is even a matter of your life, do you know?"

Faced with Chu Lingshan's series of interrogations, Chu Yi didn't know what to say. After being silent for a long time, he said helplessly: "Lingshan, I'm just... I didn't want you to worry, so I didn't tell you. Moreover, I have used this sword until now, and I have never had any problems, so you can rest assured..."

Chu Lingshan interrupted Chu Yi's words, her eyebrows furrowed, and she said a little angrily: "You don't want me to worry, so do you have to hide this kind of thing that may harm you? In case you have something long and short because of this strange sword, how guilty and self-blaming should I be as your closest partner? I don't want to listen to you coping with me to reassure me, did you hear what the old man said? He said that your sword is cursed and has feasted on the blood of countless people! You put the sword in the Sumeru ring, and he can feel the breath of the sword!

Chu Yi also became a little impatient, and frowned: "That crazy old man, who doesn't know what to do nonsense? Just an ordinary person who makes a living by setting up a stall on the side of the road, he doesn't have a trace of cultivation on his body, maybe it is a mentally deranged madman, he screams twice there, are you really serious?"

Chu Lingshan's face sank, flattened her mouth, turned her head to look to the side, and after being silent for a moment, she looked at Chu Yi coldly and said, "Okay, I understand what you mean, you just don't want to talk about this matter, right?" Then we won't talk about it. Your life is safe, you can take care of yourself, I don't bother to care about you anymore, I just hope you don't regret it. ”

After that, Chu Lingshan didn't even look at Chu Yi, then turned around and walked away quickly in a huff.

Chu Yi was shocked, he didn't expect that after he met Chu Lingshan, he would make her angry for the first time, and wanted to go up to keep her, but he didn't know what to do, after hesitating for a moment, Chu Lingshan's back had already disappeared.

Shaking his head, the corners of Chu Yi's mouth hooked up with a self-deprecating wry smile, and said helplessly: "Alas, Lingshan, I'm sorry, I know you care about me, but..."
