Volume 2 The Quartet of Great Xia, Driving the Tiger and Devouring the Wolf Chapter 25 The Great Secret of the World, the Past of the Royal City
The moment the courtyard door was pushed open, Xing Yan, who had been maintaining a casual posture, rarely straightened up, held the sword weapon at his waist with one hand, and looked intently at the old man who walked out of the courtyard.
It was only with the indifferent glance of the rickety old man that Xing Cheng let go of the hilt of his sword with a look of surprise.
Xing Cheng and Fang Chen glanced at each other, and then followed the old man into the city lord's mansion.
The inside of the hospital is more declining than the outside.
Although it was only May, it was the season of green leaves and red flowers, but the wide mansion of the City Lord's Mansion was full of withered yellow leaves, and the pale and dry bark was sparsely hanging on the withered yellow trunk.
Everything was like the old man.
There is no life.
The old man who was lying on his back seemed to have forgotten Fang Chen and Xing Cheng behind him, and still walked deeper into the courtyard by himself.
Enter the dusty hall.
The old man didn't care about those worldly etiquette at all, neither made a pot of tea for Fang Chen and the others, nor politely asked the two to sit down.
Instead, he sat down on the wooden chair closest to the door.
Fang Chen and Xing Cheng, who were a step slower, glanced at each other, and had to sit down in two positions at random like rickety old men.
There was silence for a long time.
"The old man thought that he would never see anyone from the Fang family again in this life, but he never thought that you, a waste person who couldn't set foot in cultivation, would really embark on the path of the sword. ”
The rickety old man, who had been silent for a long time, seemed to have not spoken to anyone for too long, and his voice was as hoarse and low as that of dead wood.
"There must be an understanding of the grievances back then, Senior Nie, I want to know everything about that massacre, and whether you made a move?"
Sixteen years ago, in the bloody massacre of Sword King City, among the peak combat power of the Fang family, the sword armor Chen Jiansheng fled with the Fang family's youngest son, Fang Chen, with serious injuries.
In order to make a way out for Chen Jiansheng, the invincible chess armor of Luozi stained the Sword King City with blood.
Wen Jia was on the way to support the escape of another part of the Fang family, fighting four half-statues alone, and finally lived up to his bones and died on the ground.
As for the sword armor Nie Daoyin, who was known as the Fang family's strongest combat power, it was contained in those secret files, but it was that he had betrayed the Sword King City and turned the tip of the sword to the Fang family.
But Fang Chen didn't think so.
It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that after Dao Jia rebelled from the Sword King City that year, he sealed himself in the City Lord's Mansion and never walked out of the world again.
But in those years in Frost City, this sword armor that had never stepped out of Sword King City contained in the Qingshan dossier came to Frost City to meet with Uncle Chen.
The sword armor and the sword armor had a secret conversation three times.
Fang Chen really wouldn't believe that in the face of a person who betrayed the Fang family, Chen Bo would be willing to tell him his whereabouts that he had hidden for fifteen years, and talk to him in peace.
Therefore, the young swordsman came to the Sword King City to take a look at the sword armor that the world's swordsmen need to bow their eyebrows.
No one could believe that this old man who was lying on his back and full of life would be the legendary swordsman who slashed half of the Stygian Sea with three swords.
So, the young swordsman frowned slightly, and after the rickety old man spoke, he asked this question.
Everything about the Fang family's case back then.
It is not a dossier record, but the truth in Nie Daoyin's memory.
"In the siege of the other family's family in Great Xia back then, the Fang family had no qualifications to resist at all. ”
The rickety old man was silent for a long time when he heard this, and then said a word.
Fang Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, and according to the assessment of the top ten in the world, the person who won the title of the first word was the highest person in the whole world.
With the Fang family's two big evaluations that year, the glorious past of twenty people in the world monopolizing six people, in the mouth of this old man with the strongest sword path, he actually had no power to resist.
"The reason why the divine capital of Great Xia is called the divine capital is not that the royal family claims to be a human god, but the real master of Great Xia, and he is the god of this world.
The Li royal family is just a puppet of those high gods controlling Great Xia. ”
The rickety old man lowered his head and pondered for a long time again, and then for the first time, a mixture of remorse, resentment and other emotions appeared on his face, and then said in a hoarse voice.
Fang Chen, who was carrying the abyss, trembled when he heard this, and he stood up from the wooden chair suddenly.
Great Xia convicted the Fang family that year, and its name was the most unforgivable crime of disobedience.
But with the strength of the Fang family back then, and even the majestic atmosphere of opening up the Ninth Upper Sect, how could it be so easily wiped out overnight.
That's why Fang Chen came to Sword King City to explore the truth, but this truth was too incredible.
The young swordsman turned his head to look at Xing Yan, but he saw that this swordsman from Qingshan narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression was complicated, and he obviously knew the so-called god of Great Xia.
"As you think, when the Fang family destroyed the sect, although the participation of those Fang Shangzong in the Central Domain was indispensable, it was the so-called god in the world who really killed the main force of the Fang family.
And those gods also have a Taoist system in Great Xia, and its name is called - All Living Beings Building. ”
It seems that the past is too long, or this world's sword armor is unwilling to remember it anymore, so the rickety old man was silent for a long time before continuing with an expressionless face.
Fang Chen sat back on the wooden chair, and the record of the Zhongsheng Building in the Qingshan Record gradually came to mind.
The nine-story pavilion that stood in the divine capital of the Great Xia Imperial City was almost level with the imperial palace in height.
There are never disciples in the sentient beings building, but the warriors who come out every few years to walk the world are all powerful people who are high on the top of the mountain.
As for the last large-scale attack of Zhongshenglou, when the Great Xia was founded, one person and one shot destroyed the Great Chumen of Shangzong.
"The martial cultivators in the world, except for the eight great sects and the royal family, all think that there are only two worlds in the world, and the demon clan world across the Stygian Sea is our biggest enemy.
But as everyone knows, the so-called demonic hatred is just the bane planted by those so-called gods many years ago in order to dominate the forces of the two worlds.
The outer heaven behind the building of living beings is the place where the people and demons of the two worlds who are destined for the Stygian Sea should be resented the most. ”
The old man looked up at Fang Chen, then glanced at Xing Chen indifferently, and continued.
"The grievances between the two worlds of the human race and the demon race, no matter what the antecedents are, but the thousands of corpses and bones in the Stygian Sea over the years have made the two worlds mortal enemies, and the hatred is irreconcilable, only dripping with blood. ”
Xing Yan, who had remained silent since entering the hall, smiled bitterly when he heard this, but he shook his head and said in a rare way.
"When the Fang family's case happened, Qingshan suddenly met the demon clan the day before.
had to send almost all of the great powers in the mountain to the Styx Sea in person, so he was unable to help the Fang family, which was also a pity for Qingshan. ”
Immediately after, as if he was quite guilty about the massacre in Sword King City back then, this sword cultivator who had reinforces the Stygian Sea back then and broke through the name of the Humble Peak, looked down at Fang Chen, and said with a wry smile.
"What happened back then was too sudden, and it was indeed appropriate for Qingshan to rush to the aid of the Styx, but the tragedy of the Fang family in Sword King City had already happened due to the lack of help, and the Fang family's fire was almost exhausted, and the old man's resentment towards Qingshan could not be resolved no matter what. ”
Regarding the origin of Qingshan and Sword King City, it is a true friendship accumulated by the Stygian Sea and the demon slaying together, and the two sides once decided to help each other's peak forces, but they suffered misfortune at the same time in the accident more than ten years ago.
In the battle of Qingshan in the Stygian Sea, the younger generation of Tianjiao suffered countless losses, and the main peak like Humble Peak even faintly appeared a fault line of inheritance.
And the Fang family was almost wiped out.
As soon as Nie Daoyin's words fell, Xing Yan could only smile bitterly and shake his head, and said no more.
"In that massacre back then, the Sword King City didn't get any news beforehand, and those so-called gods who were directly killed from the Living Beings Building to the Eastern Regions, and the ones with the lowest realm were also on par with the old man, but they were half respected.
And among them, those with a high realm may stand higher than those most ancient Taishang in Qingshan. ”
Wu Xiu broke the mirror, and after the Nine Realms, it was the top of the mountain, the three realms of life and death, and the supreme.
Among them, the Supreme Realm is already the pinnacle of the world, such as the Taishang of the Shangzong Hidden Cultivation and the Demon Emperor of the Killing Summer City, most of them are in this realm.
Therefore, the half-deity that has crossed the birth and death, but has not yet stepped into the supreme half-deity, is the pinnacle of combat power walking in the world.
Therefore, when Nie Daoyin mentioned this matter, his tone couldn't help but be a little solemn.
But there was no fear.
"Back then, the four of us in the Sword King City were me and Chen Jiansheng, after perceiving the momentum of one person suppressing the entire royal city, although we were unwilling to fight to the death, but knowing that we were invincible, we could only choose to escape with some Fang family seeds.
But we still underestimated the strength of the person from the outside of heaven in the Beings Tower.
That day, with just a sword in his hand, the man broke the old man's sword momentum and cut off Chen Jiansheng's sword origin.
Even though we then chose to flee with a part of the Fang family's descendants, in the end, only Chen Jiansheng and you managed to escape. ”
It seems that the memory left by the visitor of the Living Beings Building to Nie Daoyin is too deep, this self-styled sword armor in the City Lord's Mansion for more than ten years, when talking about that scene back then, his hands are still unnaturally clenched into fists.
It's as if it were yesterday.
Vividly.
"As for everything that day, speaking of which, the old man is indeed a traitor to the Fang family. ”
Immediately afterwards, Nie Daoyin, who was leaning over, bent down a few more points and sighed softly.
"On that day, according to the calculation of the four of us, the old man should have fled from the east of the city with the Fang family's lineage.
But before the old man could make a move, the spies in the Sword King City in Great Xia had already grasped the only weakness of the old man's life, my daughter.
So, the old man finally hesitated between the Fang family and his daughter-in-law, or chose the latter.
Although the old man did not hurt one of the Fang family, he did not save one of the lower families, and just watched the Sword King City drown in blood.
Later, the old man's morale declined, and Daxia used my daughter-in-law to threaten and forced the old man to kill some of the knights who came to the Sword King City to help, which can be regarded as confirming the old man's reputation as a traitor.
That's why the one in the Living Beings Building will let me, a waste who doesn't dare to draw a sword, sit in the Sword King City for more than ten years. ”
It seems that saying these words exhausted Nie Daoyin's lifelong vitality of the world's sword armor, and the old man who was hunched over said these old things, slowly leaned back on the wooden chair behind him, closed his eyes and said no more.
