In the east of Chixue City, Yang Xibao moved forward with a heavy heart. Ye Gong was a horse's head behind him, opened his mouth, scratched his head again, and finally couldn't help asking: "Third brother, how much do you know about this matter?" Yang Xibao didn't answer, and said leisurely: "One will be a success." "What?" Ye Gong was confused. Yang Xibao said: "When the incident happened, I asked the fourth child. That's what he said at the time. At first, I thought it was a shuffle of the forces in the door. Later, I asked the second brother, only to find out that it seemed to be related to 'one will succeed'. Ye Gong was taken aback: "This is a forbidden technique! Could it be that Luo Huqiu stole the mental method of 'one will succeed'? Or was someone discovered by Luo Huqiu when he was secretly cultivating?" Yang Xibao said: "I'm afraid that the latter is more likely." Just now I asked Dumu Qinghua in Dumu Village. According to him, the attack on Biliuzhuang was due to rumors that Biliuzhuang had a copy of the mental method that would be successful. As for where the rumors came from, he didn't know. However, the Elder Song who was killed that year was from Biliuzhuang. It's very suspicious!" Ye Gong said: "Speaking of which, third brother, I don't understand why you didn't kill Dumu Qinghua and avenge the death of your fellow disciple?" Yang Xibao said: "He's just a fool! Ye Gong smiled: "The third brother is still thoughtful." Also," his expression became serious, "isn't it time to talk to Luo Huqiu?"

Wan Jun Pavilion. Luo Huqiu, Luo Huting, and Tie Jing sat on the left side of the hall, and Yang Xibao and Ye Gong sat opposite them. After Jin Jia's self-exile, Yue Kai was promoted to the head of Dongcheng. His original Great Protector was seated by Broken Gold, and his younger brother Broken Armor filled his seat. At this time, the three of them sat on the main seat of the hall. Yue Kai glanced at both sides and said, "Today I am entrusted by Brother Yang to invite the three of Brother Luo to come here to resolve the misunderstanding between the two sides. I also hope that you will value harmony in everything. Yang Xibao said: "This is natural. It's just that there is a reluctant request below, I don't know if Brother Yue may agree?" Yue Kai said: "Brother Yang, please speak." Yang Xibao said: "The matter I want to talk about with Brother Luo involves our secrets. I wonder if Brother Yue and the two Dharma Protectors can avoid it?" Yue Kai said: "This is how it should be. Please remember: harmony is precious. After saying that, he went out with broken gold and broken armor.

Seeing the three of them go out, Yang Xibao asked with a straight face: "Luo Huqiu, is there a part of the mental method of success?" Luo Huqiu said: "What if you are here, what if you are not?" Yang Xibao said: "If it is on you, I hope you can hand it over or destroy it." Do you know that Biliuzhuang was destroyed because there were rumors that there was a copy of the Zhuang's Successful Mental Method?" Luo Huqiu didn't care: "I know. But what does this have to do with me!" Yang Xibao said: "If one day the rumors arise again, saying that this copy is actually on your Luohuqiu. Brother Luo, the two of you, do you really have the confidence to deal with that endless series of killing opportunities?" Luo Huqiu's expression was straight, he looked at his eldest brother and sister, and said, "It's not on me!" Yang Xibao seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and asked again: "Then why did you kill Elder Song Xinyan and Dharma Protector Mu Eclipse back then?" Luo Huqiu said: "Elder Song was indeed killed by me, but Mu Protector was not. Ye Gong couldn't help but ask, "What's going on then?"

Luo Huqiu said: "It was the third day of the fifth month, I passed by outside the Tianji Pavilion, and suddenly I heard movement inside. I couldn't help but walk over to take a look, but I didn't expect that it was Elder Song arguing with a man in black. Elder Song was covered in blood and looked extremely terrifying. He kept saying, 'You're the one who hurt me!' and his voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and it didn't resemble a human voice. The man in black just sneered, whispered something, and left through the side door. After he left, Elder Song suddenly gasped violently. I was anxious, afraid that something would happen, so I pushed the door and entered. Lift Elder Song up. But when he saw ......," he said here, his face changed, as if he remembered something terrible, "but he saw that half of Elder Song's face was completely bloodless, and it was pale and white. He seemed to recognize me and told me to kill him. I asked what was going on. Elder Song said that it was a matter of cultivation and that he was about to enter the demon. I was shocked and said that this could not be practiced, didn't the elder know? Elder Song smiled miserably: "If it weren't for what he said to be tempting, how could I practice." I hurriedly asked who the man was. Elder Song suddenly fell into the devil and slapped me on the chest. My hands became claws, and they wanted to dig out my heart and liver! I tried my best to hit him on the head with a shield. When Elder Song was dying, he told me the man's name. I was taken aback and was hesitating as to what to do. The head of the door and Mu Protector pushed the door in. You all know what happened next: I was sentenced to death for killing the elders, and I was executed in three days. Unexpectedly, that night, a flower-faced man broke into the prison and knocked me unconscious. When I woke up, I was already on the way to escape with my big brother and sister. Tie Jing said: "At that time, Ting'er and I were grounded. It was also this flower-faced man who robbed us out. Mu Protector came to chase after him, and was shocked to death by the flower-faced man's palm. ”

Yang Xibao didn't seem to expect this matter to have this inside story, and said movingly: "Who is the person that Elder Song said?" Luo Huqiu looked directly at him, and his tone was unprecedentedly solemn: "I said it, will you believe it? Do you dare to believe it?" Yang Xibao said: "If you dare to say it, I will dare to believe it!" Luo Huqiu said in a deep voice: "What Elder Song said is the head of the fine willow - Sun Xiang!" "Impossible!" Yang Xibao and Ye Gong said in unison. Ye Gongdao: "This is impossible! It must be that Elder Song was in a state of mind at the time, so he would say this!" Luo Huqiu said: "Elder Song was absolutely sober at that time!" Yang Xibao stared at Luo Huqiu, and said word by word: "What you said is true?" Luo Huqiu looked at him, and also said word by word: "If a word is not true, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed!" Yang Xibao stared at him for a while, and said: "I believe you! You have no need to lie!" After speaking, he said to Ye Gong: "Sixth, let's go!"

"Where are you going?" Luo Huqiu stopped them. Yang Xibao was a little strange: "The matter of Biliuzhuang is over, so naturally I will go back to my life." Luo Huqiu asked again: "Then when are you going to leave?" Yang Xibao said: "Leave immediately!" Luo Huqiu sat down suddenly: "This is impossible." "Why?" Yang Xibaoqi said, "Could it be that this Red Snow City is not allowed to enter or leave?" Tie Jing explained, "It can also be understood in this way. There are only two ways to leave the city: one is to enter the inner city when you open the gate of heaven, and if you can successfully reach the top of the legendary five-petal peak heavenly pillar, then Chixue City is free to come and go, and the other is to break into the city, and the city breaker needs to start from in front of any of the inner city gates and keep going. Anyone on the way can attack the city breakers, and they are free to die. Trespassers are forbidden to come back after leaving the city. Unless you can fight back through the outer gates as you did when you stormed the city. It's called 'Returning to the City'. Yang Xibao sat down again, pondered for a while, and asked, "Which method is safer?" Luo Huqiu said: "It's all the same dangerous." The inner city is opened every three years, and very few people can survive after entering. Most of these people have become Dharma protectors under the command of the Quartet. Breaking into the city is tantamount to making the whole city an enemy, and eight out of ten of the trespassers fall on the way to the city. And there are only ones who can return to the city after breaking out. It is said that since Chixue created the city, only Yu Yan and Yue Wuxian returned to the city together three months after breaking into the city, and even the inner city was alarmed. Yang Xibao said: "These two are both a generation of grandmasters. The moon without a trace is even single-handedly created a seven-kill? We can't compare. Ye Gongdao: "Is there no other way?"

Tie Jing said: "Large business groups or people invited by forty percent of the principals are not subject to this restriction. But before entering the city and before leaving the city, visit at least two principals. This method is delayed for a long time, and there are many variables. No, you don't. Luo Huting said: "Of course, you can also use some other methods. For example, like Xiao Landa, he said goodbye without saying goodbye. But the consequences are hard to predict. Yang Xibao already knew about this major event during his departure from the city, hesitated for a long time, and asked: "What is the meaning of this 'opening the gate of heaven'?" Tie Jing said: "The gate of heaven is opened every three years." This year is just the right time to start, and there are still about 20 days to go. "Twenty days ......" Yang Xibao thought for a while, and said, "No! I can't wait! How does Brother Yang choose?" Yang Xibao said: "What's the difference?" Tie Jing said: "The so-called open break is to write to the four parties in charge of the matter, and the date and place are to be carried out, and the secret break is to inform the party in charge and make an appointment on the date on his land. When you break into the city, you can also make an appointment to fight, and you can settle a grudge. This has the advantage that once the battle is established, no one else can attack the trespasser. Combatants will set up checkpoints along the way to fight the trespassers. Trespassers can also invite helpers, but of course, helpers are not allowed to leave the city. I don't know how Brother Yang decides?" Yang Xibao said: "Ming people don't do dark things, let's break open! Besides, I also want to meet Chixue Yingjie!" Luo Huqiu said: "Then it's best to make an appointment." Only win or lose, not life or death. However, if the city fails, the city breaker cannot leave the city for half a step within a year. Yang Xibao said: "Then make an appointment for three battles." Can Brother Luo come to teach at that time?" Luo Huqiu hugged his fists and said, "It's an honor to be invited. I don't know when it will be?" Yang Xibao also hugged his fists and said: "Three days later!"

Ghostface rose lightly, jumped over the back wall of Amber Linglong, and landed in the garden. He looked at the cloth bag in his hand, but he couldn't help but wonder in his heart. Since the end of the Xiao Landa incident, it seems that water and fire have changed as if they were a different person. Not only did his voice become hoarse and low, but even when he talked about business, he had to talk about business in this inaccessible backyard. He glanced at the back garden, which was shaded by green trees, with withered grass, insects chirping, and unmelted snow in the shade, dark red flakes. It still looks eerie during the day. Even Oniface, a habitual killer, doesn't want to stay here long.

"Coming back?" a hoarse voice rang out, and water and fire appeared next to several trees. Ghost Face glanced at her black skirt, raised the cloth bag in his hand: "How much work can it take to take a little thing?" With a flick of his right hand, Shui Huo flicked the cloth bag into the distance, and his hoarse voice had a hint of anger: "How many times have you said it, don't throw this thing to me!" Ghost Face shook his head and went over to pick up the cloth bag: "Of course I know you don't like that thing, but this time it's ......" He said and untied the cloth bag, revealing the contents inside, but it was a pair of jade carvings, "I saw that the jade carvings on the table were very beautiful after I finished my work, so I brought them back." I wanted to give it to you, but since you don't want it, then I'll give it to someone else. "You-" is a knot of anger, and the word "you" is clear and crisp. She hurriedly changed her hoarse voice: "This jade carving is so strange, it seems to be an unrefined artifact." You show it to me. The ghost face was amused, but nodded solemnly: "I also think it's strange, so I'll bring it back for you to study." He handed the bag over and whispered to himself, "It's good that it wasn't broken." Shui Huo glanced at him and took the cloth bag: "I'll go back and study it carefully and then return it to you." Put the reward in the old place, take it yourself. After speaking, his figure flashed, and he was gone.

Ghost Face walked towards the fourth big tree next to him, but he couldn't help but think about the past few days. Xiao Landa was only solved that morning, and in the afternoon, Shui Huo sent a business to Ghost Noodles. After the deed was accomplished, Ghost Face brought the human head back and handed it over to Shui Huo as usual. Unexpectedly, when Shui Huo saw the human head, he was shocked and threw the human head far away. He also warns Ghostface not to bring her head in the future. These few times the ghost face deliberately put the human head in a bag and threw it to the water and fire. Except for the first time when Shui Huo opened the bag and was startled, every time Shui Huo directly brushed the cloth bag aside. Thinking about what water and fire looked like at that time, it was quite cute. Ghostface shook his head and smiled, took the bag full of dragon's blood from the treetops, and opened it to see, only to see that there was an extra note in the box. He unfolded the note, and a line of small letters was written on it: "On the bank of the lonely bamboo canal, inside the autumn water pavilion." Tomorrow night, I hope you will meet. "This girl is quite beautifully written. Puzzled, Ghost Face put the note in his arms along with the box and walked over the wall.
