Chapter 17: The Monks of the Nantianmen Temple
The autumn breeze enters the city.
Wrapped in a sense of slaughter.
In a certain inn in a certain city in Jiang Guo, a group of men dressed in black and with swords at their waists walked out of the inn and turned into a deep alley, led by Hang Ziyu raised his hand gently, he looked ahead, and a cold voice sounded, "Your Excellency has been observing this inn for a long time, it seems that it is here for us, and it has not shown up yet?"
Not long after Hang Ziyu's words fell, footsteps sounded in the alley.
But the direction from which the footsteps came was not directly in front of Hang Ziyu, but behind him.
The men in black parted left and right, Hang Ziyu also turned to look at the mouth of the alley, and the person who was walking was also dressed in black, holding a very conspicuous white handkerchief in his hand, gently covering his mouth, and said with a smile: "Presumably, this is Mr. Hang Ziyuhang of the Nantianmen Temple of the Dao Palace, and he has been looking up for a long time." ”
Hang Ziyu frowned and asked, "Who are you?"
The man with the white handkerchief smiled and arched his hand and said, "In Xia Munan, I am just a mountain monk, Mr. Hang of the dignified Nantianmen Temple, and he has never heard of me. ”
It was impossible for Xu Hexian to go out of the city in person to find the cultivators of the Nantianmen Temple, so this errand fell on Mu Nan, the squire of the Xuanzheng Division.
He deliberately concealed his identity, the name of the murderer Mu Nan may be quite famous in Jiang Kingdom, but in the eyes of the Nantianmen Temple, it is only a dispensable small role, so naturally there is no reason to know.
"Monks in the Four Realms. Hang Ziyu said lightly: "In the mountains and wilderness, there are few people who have such cultivation, I am not confident that Jiang Guoli can also know my name in the mountains and fields, what do you want to do here?"
Mu Nan hurriedly said: "It's not a secret, I have always respected the Dao Palace very much, and I have wanted to serve the Dao Palace all my life, but unfortunately I have never found the opportunity, I also happened to hear that a monk from the Nantianmen Temple went to Jiang Guo to investigate the destruction of the Xiaonan Tianmen in Mocheng, as I said before, I know that my qualifications are dull, and it is difficult to enter the temple law, but I also want to help the temple." ”
"On the day of the destruction of Xiaonan Tianmen in Mocheng, I rushed to hear the sound, although it was too late, but I also found out who killed Zhu Zhangjiao and destroyed Xiaonan Tianmen. ”
Hang Ziyu frowned tightly, as a cultivator of the Dao Palace Nantianmen Temple, of course he was extremely proud, but their pride was already arrogant, he didn't doubt that there would be cultivators who respected the Dao Palace Temple, because in his opinion, it was a normal thing, but he was not an idiot, and he couldn't trust the other party with just a few words.
"What do you want?"
Mu Nan said with a smile: "Mr. Hang is worthy of being Mr. Hang, I don't hide it, I really want to serve the Dao Palace Temple, although according to Mr. Hang's ability, it is easy to investigate the person who destroyed the Xiaonan Heavenly Gate, but it takes time after all, I just want to help Mr. Hang do my best, in order to follow Mr. Hang and let Mr. Hang send him." ”
Hang Ziyu sneered and said, "You want to join the Nantianmen Temple?"
Mu Nancheng said with trepidation: "The little self-knowledge is not qualified, but I also hope that Mr. Hang can be fulfilled!"
Hang Ziyu said: "It stands to reason that it is naturally impossible for my Nantianmen Temple to recruit disciples at will, but I see that your cultivation is not weak, and you sincerely help me do things, as long as you know something, there is no problem, I can call the shots, let you follow me and become a supernumerary member of the Nantianmen Temple." ”
Mu Nan was grateful to Dai De and said: "Mr. Qi Yu Hang, as far as I know, the person who destroyed Xiao Nan Tianmen and killed Zhu Cho Jiu Zhu Zhangjiao is the seventh Mr. in the Sword Courtyard of the Imperial Palace, his name is Li Mengzhou, this person has practiced for less than two years, and he has already met opponents in the four realms, and he can be said to have extremely high qualifications, and he is extremely proud. ”
"Zhu Zhangjiao is the head of Xiaonan Tianmen, sitting in Dishui County, Jiangguo District, naturally he is high, but that Li Mengzhou is very domineering, and he can't get used to Zhu Zhangjiao, so he actually destroyed Xiaonan Tianmen without saying a word, and made Zhu Zhangjiao suffer humiliation before he died, this person really deserves to die!"
After all, the power of the Beiyan Dao Palace in the Jiang Kingdom is very small, the small heavenly gates of the Dao Palace are all over the world, but there are only two in the Jiang Kingdom, and the news that is transmitted back is naturally relatively closed, some major events may not be able to hide the ears and eyes of the Dao Palace, but the small things are not known, Mu Nan's mouth is full of dung nonsense, and it did not make Hang Ziyu suspicious, but he was furious because of this.
"If it's really the seventh gentleman of the Sword Courtyard of the Imperial Palace! He actually humiliated the little Heavenly Gate subordinate to my Nantianmen Temple like this, it is indeed quite damned! What about the Leaving Palace Sword Academy? If you provoke my Nantianmen Temple, I will kill them all over!"
There was a matter of lonely mountain guests in front, and at this time, there was Mu Nan's words, Hang Ziyu did not have the slightest doubt, he had a gloomy face, and said: "I am going to Dancheng to gather the disciples of another Xiaonan Tianmen in Jiang Kingdom, Li Mengzhou, I must kill this person!"
Mu Nan lowered his head, wiped his mouth with a white handkerchief, and sneered secretly, the cultivators in these temples in the Beiyan Dao Palace are all arrogant people, some people are indeed very capable, but those who are not capable are also the same, they will look very stupid.
It is true that Hang Ziyu's cultivation at the peak of the Four Realms is indeed very strong, but vainly trying to kill all the people in the Sword Courtyard of the Palace with this strength is like a fantasy, but these are not things that Mu Nan needs to care about, his task has been completed, and the next thing is to find a way to retreat.
He echoed Hang Ziyu in his mouth, and then said: "After all, the Palace Sword Courtyard is the Five Realms Shangzong in Jiang Guoli, Mr. Hang wants to directly make enemies with the Palace Sword Academy, maybe something is wrong, according to what Xiao has seen, we can get rid of Li Mengzhou first, and we want to avoid the Palace Sword Academy, it is very coincidental that Li Mengzhou is indeed not in the Palace Sword Courtyard recently, and the little one will go to find out the whereabouts of Li Mengzhou, and inform Mr. Hang when the time comes, let him plug his wings and escape." ”
Hang Ziyu was also angry just now, but now when he heard Mu Nan's words, he quickly calmed down, after all, this is in Jiang Country, and Beiyan, who can't let them do whatever they want, really killed the Palace Sword Academy, it is indeed a very unnecessary thing, and it will be miserable if it is not done well.
He couldn't help but pat Mu Nan's shoulder approvingly, and said: "You are really a very good dog, you have strength, and your brain is also smart, just as you said, as long as you obediently help me do things, don't say that you are a supernumerary member of the Nantianmen Temple, and it is not impossible for you to directly join the Nantianmen Temple in the future." ”
Mu Nan said with sincere fear: "Mr. Hang is very gracious and virtuous, the small one is toothless and unforgettable, and he will definitely be full of liver and brain, and he will not give up!"
......
The sky was getting a little darker.
It's time for the sun to set.
The blue canopy carriage swayed slowly along the mountain road, and a creaking sound was heard.
This place is still a long way from the capital.
Li Mengzhou's body is not suitable for sitting in a carriage for a long time, and he has to stop and rest for a while from time to time.
Ouyang Shengxue tapped on the car board and said, "How, can you stand it? Anyway, you can't get to the capital in a short day, so you might as well rest in this mountain and leave tomorrow?"
Li Mengzhou's voice came from the carriage, "Senior brother, I'm not so weak, it's just that there is still some pain in the wound part of my body, but it doesn't hinder anything, so I will continue to hurry and find an inn to stay in the town in front of me." ”
Ouyang Shengxue nodded, and raised the horsewhip, but when he swung the whip, the movement suddenly stopped, he stared at the front, and said lightly: "It seems that God doesn't want us to live in the inn." ”
Li Mengzhou's body did not recover, but with the "Silkworm Annihilation Scroll" providing him with endless mental power, he also sensed the situation the moment Ouyang Shengxue spoke, he sighed a little lazily, and said: "There are a lot of people who have come, and there are no people below the Four Realms in cultivation, and it seems that those who come are not good." ”
Ouyang Shengxue frowned and said, "I don't have any enemies outside. ”
Li Mengzhou was a little speechless and said: "The meaning of Senior Brother's words is that he came at me. ”
Ouyang Shengxue chuckled and said, "If they weren't just passing by, they would have only come at you." ”
Li Mengzhou had to admit that he did have a lot of enemies, but in addition to Qin Chengyi, the rest were some enemies who could not be regarded as enemies of life and death, and the enemies who wanted him to die were all killed by him early, and he was able to gather so many monks from the Four Realms to seek revenge, except for Qin Chengyi, he really couldn't think of anyone else.
Thinking of this, his expression was also much more solemn.
Qin Chengyi is finally going to do it.
As the sound of horses' hooves approached, the comers also revealed the true face of Lushan.
There were dozens of cultivators from the Four Realms who came in groups, all of them dressed in black, with cold eyes, and surrounded the carriage in the middle, blocking it quite tightly.
Li Mengzhou couldn't recognize it, but Ouyang Shengxue said in surprise: "The monk of Dancheng Xiaonan Tianmen?"
In fact, when Su Bieli told the deeds of Mr. Seven of the Sword Academy of the Imperial Palace, Ouyang Shengxue also knew for the first time that Li Mengzhou had destroyed Xiaonan Tianmen with a sword in Mocheng, Dishui County, and at this time, seeing that it was a cultivator of Xiaonan Tianmen in Dancheng, he immediately realized that the person who came was indeed aimed at Li Mengzhou.
Originally, he only knew that he had come to investigate the destruction of the Little South Heavenly Gate Gate in Mocheng, but now he knew that the person who destroyed the Little South Heavenly Gate in Mo City was his junior disciple, so of course, among the dozens of cultivators of the Four Realms in front of him, there were monks from the South Heavenly Gate Temple.
He turned to the carriage sideways and said softly: "Senior brother, you should tell us about the destruction of that little Nantianmen in Mocheng afterwards, although your sword is like the feat of the Sword Immortal King who used to destroy the Xitianmen Temple by the moon, I am also very excited when I think about it, but there is a bunch of trouble behind my buttocks, but it is not something to be happy about." ”
Li Mengzhou patted his head, as if he had just remembered the incident of Xiaonan Tianmen in Mocheng, and he hurriedly said: "There was a reason why I came out with a sword at that time, and I forgot about it when I went to the Heavenly Abandonment Wasteland to experience so many things afterwards, no wonder I wasn't." ”
Ouyang Shengxue said: "The grievances between the Dao Palace and the Sword Gate have been going on for a long time, and there is the Sword Immortal King Chengyue destroying the West Heavenly Gate Temple in front of us, which has intensified the resentment between the Dao Palace and the Sword Gate, and our Imperial Sword Courtyard is also a part of the Sword Gate, no matter what the reason is, the small Nantian Gate in Mocheng will be destroyed if it is destroyed, since they have already come to the door, we are nothing more than a word, fight!"
Li Mengzhou lifted the curtain of the car, gave a thumbs up to Ouyang Shengxue, and said, "Senior brother is really domineering. ”
Ouyang Shengxue's personality is actually not domineering at all, he has a lot of ideas, but in some things, he is indeed very decisive.
Mu Nan hid in the Nantianmen monks, he put away the white handkerchief, and deliberately avoided the sight of Ouyang Shengxue and Li Mengzhou by taking advantage of the dark sky, at this time he approached Hang Ziyu's ear and said softly: "Mr. Hang, the dark-skinned young man in the carriage is the seventh Mr. Li Mengzhou from the Palace Sword Academy, and the big Mr. Ouyang Shengxue is sitting on the wheel, he is only half a step away from the threshold of the Five Realms, I'm afraid this matter is a little difficult." ”
