Since ancient times, Qingcheng has been secluded all over the world.

A quiet word highlights the charm of Qingcheng Mountain. But there is only one ghost, but it is not enough to explain the wonderfulness of Qingcheng Mountain.

Qingcheng Mountain is verdant all year round, quiet and deep, the strange peaks are handsome, majestic and magnificent, and it has always been the must-choose resort for Taoist Qing cultivation.

The Qingcheng faction is complex, and sometimes the head of the Qingcheng faction is not set up in Qingcheng Mountain.

This generation is an authentic faction, and the Shangqing Palace enshrines the Shangqing Lingbao Heavenly Master and the Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling.

Shangqing Palace is located in the top of Qingcheng Pengzu Peak, and Zhangren Peak, Tianshi Cave, Patriarch Palace, Jianfu Palace are far away.

Everyone parked the carriage and horse in the Jianfu Palace, walked up along the stone steps, the stone steps are more than 1,000 roads, the grass and trees next to the steps are deep, the winding path leads to the secluded place, and there are countless pavilions and caves.

Ye Rongqiu was a little shy, and Tang Qingqing exclaimed from time to time, even Xiao Ding and Zhou Ziheng, who had always been steady, couldn't help but be impressed by the beautiful scenery of Qingcheng Mountain.

Everyone walked and enjoyed the beautiful scenery, but they did not feel tired, and they had arrived at the Shangqing Palace unconsciously.

There have long been Taoist children who have reported that there are many Taoist priests waiting in line outside the hall.

On the second day of the martial arts conference, Qingcheng Sixiu has flown pigeons to pass the book back to Qingcheng Mountain to report the bad news, at this time the hall has already been arranged in the mourning hall, all the congregants are wearing filial piety clothes, bowing down to greet each other.

A gray-clothed Taoist took the ashes of Zao Wou-Ki from Zhao Qingming's hands, turned around and walked into the mourning hall, there were already four Taoist priests waiting next to the coffin, after the gray-clothed Taoist put the ashes into the coffin, the four of them immediately spread the clothes worn by Zao Wou-Ki on weekdays into the coffin, and then covered the coffin and retreated.

The gray-clothed Taoist returned to the outside of the hall and asked Zhao Qingming, "Qingming, who are these people?" ”

Zhao Qingming said respectfully: "This is the young hero Ding Shaoxia who broke the Tiangang Demon Formation of the three elders of Shaolin with one sword, found out the Shaolin traitor, and scared away Nangong Yu. ”

He focused on introducing Xiao Ding and Zhou Ziheng, but he brought Tang Qingqing and Ye Rongqiu a sentence, and the four of them felt that there was nothing wrong with it, and even secretly praised him for handling it properly.

Tang Qingqing's reputation in the rivers and lakes is a little indecent, even a little terrifying, in the eyes of the famous and decent, she is an evil demon, but this female devil rescued their lives a few days ago.

As for Ye Rongqiu, Qingcheng Sixiu knows very little, only that she is Xiao Ding's friend, and she is also a woman dressed as a man.

Tang Qingqing and Ye Rongqiu are not people who care about fame, and Zhao Qingming's introduction is not decent, and a small Ding is enough to divert the attention of others.

Sure enough, the gray-clothed Taoist looked surprised, he really couldn't figure it out, the person who could break through the Shaolin Tiangang Demon Formation would be the young man in front of him.

Zhao Qingming continued to introduce: "This is my senior uncle Yue Wuhua. “

Yue Wuhua, a gray-clothed Taoist, hugged his fists and said: "I have heard the name of Mr. Zhou for a long time, I don't want to see it today, it is really a shining style, the heroic names of several young heroes have resounded through the rivers and lakes after the battle of the martial arts conference, it is really a hero out of a young man, I have a decent martial arts successor, congratulations!" ”

Xiao Ding and the other four people also hugged their fists and returned the salute, and after the politeness, Yue Wuhua arranged for the four of them to go to the guest room to rest for a while.

After a long journey, the four of them really wanted to rest and rest, especially Tang Qingqing and Ye Rongqiu, who wanted to take a comfortable shower and change their clothes.

The Qingcheng faction was holding a funeral, and as guests, of course, they couldn't dress too brightly.

At dinner, Xiao Ding had already noticed that both of them had changed into new clothes.

He saw that Ye Rongqiu had changed into women's clothes, and saw that her hair was hanging down her waist, with a simple Han jade hairpin on her head, her white clothes were like snow, and her skin was as white as snow, and she was noble in the cold.

Tang Qingqing was wearing a light green floral moon skirt, with a delicate belt of green leaves at the waist, long hair reaching to the waist, a flying phoenix jade hairpin on her head, and a pair of amethyst pendants on her ears, which was elegant and a little gorgeous.

Both of them were dressed generously and decently, but their eyes were slightly touched.

Xiao Ding didn't dare to look at anyone more, so he just buried his head in eating. It's just that he was thinking in his heart, how did this little leaf change into women's clothes again.

As everyone knows, although Ye Rongqiu often walks the rivers and lakes in men's clothes, which daughter doesn't like to dress up? Especially after meeting the person she likes, and now there is Tang Qingqing, how can she not pay attention to her image, maybe after that, she will not change into men's clothes.

On the way to eat, Wei Qingshu and Nie Qingyun from the four shows in Qingcheng came to visit and asked the four of them to stay for a few more days, because according to local customs, people must do a ritual to transcend the soul of the dead after death, and the more days they do, the greater the mourning and respect for the deceased.

According to Zao Wou-ki's identity, this ritual had to be done for at least seven or eight days before it could be performed, but because Zao Wou-Ki was a guest in a foreign land, it had taken a lot of time to transport the coffin back to Qingcheng Mountain, so Yue Wuhua and Qingcheng Sixiu decided to hold a mourning ceremony two days later.

As a member of the faction, there will definitely be many people from the rivers and lakes who come to mourn at that time, who knows if there will be people from the Blue Dragon Club hiding in the crowd who come to mourn, waiting for an opportunity to make trouble, so Xiao Ding and they naturally have to wait for the mourning ceremony before leaving.

After the meal, Xiao Ding and Zhou Ziheng walked to a small pavilion nearby, and there was already a Taoist boy offering fragrant tea.

Tang Qingqing didn't leave Xiao Ding an inch, and Ye Rongqiu naturally followed him to the pavilion.

The two of them are fighting openly and secretly, and no one will admit defeat.

Zhou Ziheng looked at Zhangren Peak in the distance, and said with a worried face: "Do you think they will secretly do evil in the past two days?" ”

The people in his mouth were, of course, the Blue Dragon Society and the Money Gang.

Xiao Ding pondered for a moment and sighed: "They will definitely take action, but they will not attack in a big way, the Qingcheng faction is a big martial arts faction, and its strength is not weak, plus there are many martial arts people who come to mourn, and the Qinglong Society will naturally not be able to get benefits when it comes, and for the time being, I haven't seen it attack any sect on a large scale, and I haven't seen any motive for it to attack the Qingcheng faction." ”

Ye Rongqiu said indifferently: "Since they have no motive to deal with the Qingcheng faction, how can they come to participate in the condolences?" ”

Tang Qingqing glanced at Ye Rongqiu, as if Ye Rongqiu had snatched the question that should have been asked by her.

Xiao Ding smiled lightly: "Up to now, the information we have shows that the only people in the Blue Dragon Society who have appeared are Nangong Yu and his son and Hu Ba Taiye, plus a Master Jingxuan and Sick Hua Tuo, as for the Xuanyuan gambler, it has yet to be verified, if they send someone else this time, how will we know?" ”

Tang Qingqing said coldly: "Even if Nangong Yu comes, who can kill people in Shangqing Palace?" ”

What she said was the truth, the Shangqing Palace was doing things, and any grievances in the martial arts could not be resolved at the funeral, which was disrespectful to the deceased, and it was also a manifestation of looking down on the Qingcheng faction, no one would be stupid enough to kill people in the Shangqing Palace.

Zhou Ziheng took a sip of tea, took out his cigarette stick and began to fill the pipe with cigarettes, he said in a deep voice: "But the old man can't understand why Sick Huatuo will secretly do something to you, and what is his purpose?" ”

Xiao Ding sighed: "This is exactly the problem that I have been trying to think of for a few days, the appearance of Sick Hua Tuo is too sudden, if Qinglong wants to assassinate me, he will never be sent alone, there will definitely be other people to cooperate." ”

Tang Qingqing said: "Could it be that the enemy hiding in the shadows was too frightened to act after seeing your move?" ”

Xiao Ding smiled and said: "How come, if you see Hua Tuo and Granny Jin and others, you should know that the methods of the Blue Dragon Society are extremely cruel and vicious, and if the people sent out to act fail to complete the task, they may end up even worse when they can't return to their lives." ”

Tang Qingqing stomped his feet and said: "This is not that nor that, a sick Hua Tuo just delayed us for half a day, it seems that the people of the Blue Dragon Society are not so terrible." ”

Xiao Ding's heart was shocked, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, the speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, he seemed to have thought of something interesting, but it was inconvenient to say it at this time.

Zhou Ziheng smoked a muffled cigarette and frowned: "No matter what, everyone should be careful in the past two days." ”

At night, the evening breeze is cold.

On the highest peak of Qingcheng Mountain, on a cliff of Pengzu Peak, there are two people.

In the darkness of the night, I couldn't see clearly, and I could only hear that one of them was speaking in a young voice, and the other was a little older.

The older man reprimanded in a low voice: "You secretly practiced the martial arts of the cult sect back then, I didn't report you to the senior brother in charge of the family because I watched you grow up since I was a child, I didn't expect that now you would do such a big rebellious thing." I don't want to kill you, but for the sake of the reputation of your faction, you can abolish your martial arts, and leave Qingcheng Mountain from now on, incognito. ”

The young man didn't seem to be afraid, and he didn't seem to care about it in his words, he smiled and said: "You old man don't have to be angry, as the saying goes, people don't kill the heavens and the earth for themselves, as soon as Zao Wou-Ki dies, won't the position of head become yours naturally, I'm secretly helping you." ”

The older one scolded angrily: "Nonsense, I, Yue Wuhua, have no intention of coveting the position of the head of the family, you have done such a big thing to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors, and you dare to speak out and be unashamed, without repentance, I will abolish you today!" ”

There was a bang, and it was obvious that he had drawn his sword and was ready to start.

The young man hurriedly said, "Wait, it's not too late for your old man to listen to me before he starts." ”

The older man was still angry, and shouted angrily: "If there is a fart, let it go!" ”

The young man smiled: "I want to say, since you don't want to be the head, then I am the only one who will sit in the position of head." ”

"You ......" The old man only said one word you, and there was already an extra sword in his throat, and the tip of the sword had entered his throat for three minutes, and it had already been dialed out, and the blood had not had time to flow out, and the sword qi had entered his throat.

A sword pierces the throat, and a sword kills.

Good fast sword.

The sword was already in the sheath, and the young man stood in the cold wind for a moment before squatting down and picking up the corpse on the ground, walked to the edge of the cliff, raised his hands, threw Yue Wuhua's body into the abyss, turned around and hurriedly left.

The night wind howled, and the sky and earth were dark, as if nothing had happened.
