Rustle~

After a thunderous roar, the blue water forest, which had just set off a big movement, returned to dead silence, leaving only the thin and light sound of the rain hitting the branches and leaves, and the smoke and fire in front of the closed manor.

More than 100 forbidden soldiers dressed as overseers, facing the smoke pressed by the wind, slowly retreated with their blades in hand, and at the same time aimed at Hua Junchen.

Hua Junchen's voice was loud, but his brain didn't get into the water, and after revealing his identity, he tensed his legs and made a gesture of running away at any time, lest it wasn't his son-in-law who came, and he really put his life into it.

But he waited a little longer, and the noise outside the manor stopped, but there was no smoke coming out, but it became quieter and quieter.

Hua Junchen was a little puzzled when he saw this, the thief didn't appear, it was obviously inappropriate for him to turn around and run directly, so he held on to his momentum and said coldly:

"It's all here, why hide it? Dare to show up! ”

Step, step......

As soon as this statement came out, the effect was immediate.

In the billowing smoke in front of the manor, a footstep sounded, although the pace was slow, but there was a sense of step-by-step, and each step seemed to hit the chest and abdomen of the people present.

The bright and dark sentinels on the outside of the manor, seeing this, all showed the appearance of facing a great enemy, and retreated to the rear of Hua Junchen.

Hua Junchen just listened to the footsteps, and knew that there was a big dragon walking in the smoke, and he was not at the same level, and his heartstrings collapsed to the extreme.

Step, step, step......

Everyone held their breath for a moment, and between the fire and smoke in front of them, the outline of a figure gradually emerged.

The figure is quite tall, with a hat on his head, and a cloak behind him that is slightly ferryed, and two short soldiers can be seen hanging from his waist.

Hua Junchen and his son-in-law are already quite familiar, just looking at this unfamiliar outline, you can be sure that there is another person, and the secret feeling is not good.

However, the other party walked out slowly, and did not do it directly, Hua Junchen was not good at pulling down his face and turning around, so he asked in a deep voice first:

"Where is Your Excellency sacred?"

In the smoke, Xue Baijin wore jade armor on his face, walked alone on the muddy road outside the manor, and before he came to the white wall, he raised his hat slightly, first glanced at Hua Junchen on both sides of the wall, and then moved his gaze to the depths of the manor:

"Nanxiao Mountain, Xue Baijin."

"......"

As soon as the hoarse voices of men and women came out, not only did many warriors in the blue water forest appear noisy, but even the people in the rivers and lakes who were hiding in the woods and preparing to fish in troubled waters showed a look of surprise on their faces.

After all, the name of the Pingtian Sect Master is not only known to everyone in the Southern Dynasties, but also in the Northern Dynasties.

Fengguancheng is recognized as 'the first in the world', and he personally evaluated Xue Baijin, the leader of the Pingtian Sect, as the first person under the mountain, which did not divide the mountain into north and south.

For this reason, Xue Baijin, whether in the Southern or Northern Dynasties, was counted by the Jianghu people in the echelon below the Martial Saint and above the Martial Kui.

After so many years, although Xue Baijin has made very few shots, he has not experienced any setbacks, and now he is enough to be regarded as a martial saint-level figure.

Seeing that the Pingtian Sect Master of the Southern Dynasty suddenly appeared, the three great eunuchs including Gonggong Xu showed the appearance of facing a great enemy, and they all appeared and flew up, landing near Hua Junchen.

When Hua Junchen heard Xue Baijin's name, his heart trembled, where did he dare to stand in front of the top of the center, and he wanted to retreat immediately.

Fortunately, Zhongsun Jin inside the manor is not such an unreliable person, and it can be seen that with Hua Junchen's strength, it is still possible to kill an elderly Wu Kui, and when he encounters a peak hero like Xue Baijin, he is not qualified to talk at all.

After the Pingtian Sect Master reported to his home, Zhongsun Jin tapped the eaves, his body rose without wind, and quietly landed on Hua Junchen's side, and said calmly:

"It turned out to be Xue Shaoxia of Tiannan, who admired it for a long time. If the old man remembers correctly, last time in Huangmingshan, Xue Shaoxia and the Night Terror Hall of the Southern Dynasty and Jiang Zahu teamed up to injure King Zuoxian, did Xue Shaoxia already submit to the Southern Dynasty? ”

Xue Baijin saw an old man in a Confucian shirt appear in front of him, his eyes were a little more solemn, but his bearing was still not inferior:

"Last time I was in Huangmingshan, I happened to meet King Zuo Xian, and I couldn't see him bully and ambush the martial arts of my Southern Dynasty before he made a move. My Nanxiao Mountain Xue family is full of loyalty, and there is no one in the south of the guard, how can I bow to the female emperor of the Southern Dynasty. ”

Xue Baijin himself is the emperor of the rivers and lakes, and he is in the rising period, he is far away from the emperor in Tiannan Mountain, as long as the northern and southern dynasties fight, he can make a profit, no matter what angle he thinks, there is indeed no reason to give the empress a minister, unless the empress agrees with him.

Zhongsun Jin thought about it carefully and felt that Xue Baijin didn't look like he had taken refuge in the Southern Dynasty, so he continued:

"Then Xue Shaoxia came to the door today, did he want to break into this blue water forest by himself?"

Xue Baijin bowed his hand: "Zhongsun's predecessor is serious, I have no malice in coming here, but I heard that your country has refined a blind elixir, which can make a martial artist reborn, and I want to come to the door to ask for one, I don't know if Zhongsun's predecessor is inconvenient?" ”

Many masters in the Bishui Forest are not surprised to hear this, after all, even if the Pingtian Sect Master is really a martial saint, the current strength gap between the two sides is still too great, not to mention the various traps arranged in advance in the Bishui Forest, and the large number of masters who may rush to the aid of the capital at any time, just the three or five people who stand up on the surface, Xue Baijin can't deal with it alone.

Seeing that the other party was here to ask for medicine, Zhongsun Jin's face softened a little:

"This is true, but the Snow Lake Flower is too hard to find, and the amount of medicine refined by the imperial court is limited, so it cannot be given to outsiders for no reason. Xue Shaoxia is very talented, if he is willing to serve my Daliang from now on, the old man can ask the saint for his life and ask for one for you. ”

The elixir of Beiliang Lian originally had three of them for backup, so as not to have the opportunity to recruit An Beiyunbian and others in the future, but he couldn't take out anything; And Xue Baijin obviously has the qualifications to take medicine, so what Zhongsun Jin said is not a lie.

When Xue Baijin heard this request, he did not immediately refute it, but took it with one hand and did a deep contemplative look, and only said after a while:

"It's not that I don't know my own catties, the price code given to me by the empress of the Southern Dynasty is to seal the hereditary repudiation of Zhennanhou, and the land of the four counties in the south of the sky, I haven't agreed yet; Beiliang gave me a pill, and he wanted me to be loyal to Xue Baijin, which was really a bit reluctant. ”

Zhongsun Jin knew that the empress of the Southern Dynasty could afford this price, and it was indeed too whimsical to exchange a pill for a martial saint to come back, and seeing that Xue Baijin had the intention of discussing, he continued:

"The elixir is just a bonus. If Xue Shaoxia is willing to come to Daliang to serve, the reward that the Southern Dynasty can give, how can I not afford it. ”

"I want the title of a king with a different surname, and the saint of your country can also give it?"

“……”

As soon as these words came out, the inside and outside of the blue water forest became a little noisy.

Father-in-law and other eunuchs in the inner country, when they saw the Pingtian Sect Master coming to surrender, they were quite happy, but they were directly annoyed when they heard this.

After all, there have not been a few kings with different surnames since the first emperor, and their fate is either to be punished by the nine clans, or to be the emperor of the three Zen and three people.

During the founding period of the People's Republic of China, most of the emperors named kings with different surnames were to temporarily stabilize the founding heroes, and they had to go down after sitting firmly on the chair; And the king with a different surname during the Taiping period can only say that the emperor's qi is exhausted, and he can no longer control the court.

Such a powerful character in the Night Terror Hall, a real martial saint, or the orphan of King Tianlang, can pull up a country's soldiers and horses in the Xihai tribes with his beckoning, and he has not been mixed with the title of a king with a different surname, but he has been awarded the title of a national duke, and he has no actual military power.

How much space do you Xue Baijin occupy? Is the martial arts higher than the night terror, or is it more handsome than the night terror? If you open your mouth, you have a different surname Wang, don't you give face and shame?

Father-in-law Xu wanted to say a few words, but Zhong Sun Jin raised his hand to stop him and said:

"Since ancient times, there have been only a handful of people who have not been crowned dukes. If the imperial court crowns Xue Shaoxia as the king with a different surname now, and Xue Shaoxia makes great contributions in the future, what should the imperial court reward? It is a good thing that Xue Shaoxia has lofty ambitions, but this matter has to be done step by step, as long as Xue Shaoxia takes the credit for splitting the territory and sealing the territory, how can the saint be stingy with a prince. ”

"What Mr. Zhongsun said is also reasonable, but I am in Nanxiao Mountain, and there are many family members and subordinates, these people are far away from thousands of mountains and rivers, and it is not easy to settle down......"

"This Xue Shaoxia rest assured, as long as you have the heart to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, the imperial court will send a boat to go around the official city by sea and take the righteous warriors of Nanxiao Mountain back to Daliang......"

……

The smoke in the blue water forest was heavy, and soon the entire manor was obscured.

The guards in the garden, and the heroes of the rivers and lakes who were preparing to fish in troubled waters outside, watched the two of them negotiate, and even quietly commented on Xue Baijin's lion opening and Zhongsun Jin's corporal Lixian.

And at the same moment, behind the blue water forest.

The blue water forest is built by the mountains and rivers, facing the main road of the Yan River in front, and behind it is the terrain surrounded by mountains on three sides, planted with countless flowers and trees, and there are many dark whistles in between, but at this time they all pay attention to the movement outside the manor.

Rustle~

In the dense rain, the Night Terror, dressed in his night clothes, quietly touched the woods, came to the south wall, listened intently to the bargaining of the ice mound, and raised his hand slightly after making sure that his attention was drawn.

Fan Qinghe and Zhe Yunli knew that they were dealing with the ancestor of Qianjimen, and they were under a lot of pressure, so Zhe Yunli walked a while, and directly did not dare to go forward, and chose to stand guard with the birds on the hillside, so as not to get too close to make a movement, and be noticed by Zhongsun Jin and dragged back.

Although Fan Qinghe's martial arts are average, his concealed light skills belong to the super-first-class level, and at this time, he followed closely by his side, and after crossing the wall with the Night Terror Hall, he landed in the back garden, and asked in a low voice:

"It's Ning'er outside, her father-in-law?"

The night terror hall just came, and did not go around to the front of the manor, and after seeing Ning'er communicating to each other, he turned to the back of the manor.

Although they didn't have any communication with each other, they could be regarded as having a good heart, and when Bingtuo Tuo found out that he was coming, he took the initiative to jump out, all kinds of nonsense to attract attention and give him a chance to sneak in.

And the Night Terror Hall naturally didn't hold back, taking advantage of the rain to cover it, quietly touched into the back garden, carefully sensed and made sure that there were no masters around as a dark whistle, and took Qinghe to the center of the manor carefully.

The scale of the Bishui Forest is very large, and there are countless pavilions and pavilions in it, and it is difficult to find out where the alchemy place is without architectural drawings.

But fortunately, there were people making trouble outside, and the sentry posts that were originally hidden in the shadows have popped up, and the core location of the manor can be determined through the distribution of personnel.

After observing carefully in the dark for a while, and after making sure that most of the guards were located near the Buddha Hall in the central area, they slowly moved towards it.

After the two of them walked forward like this, the surrounding buildings gradually increased, and Fan Qinghe originally followed behind, but as he walked, he found that something was wrong, and held the hand of the Night Terror.

Although the night terror hall is proficient in martial arts, but for the study of institutions and the like, it is obviously too much inferior to Qinghe, seeing this slightly possessed, he walked behind the moon with a perfect curve of Aunt Fan, and said in a low voice:

"Questions?"

Fan Qinghe frowned, and came to the corridor with the Night Terror Hall, and after carefully inspecting the floor tiles and pillars, he took out a small medicine bottle from the armor behind his waist and poured it on the steps.

Night Terror Hall was puzzled at first, but soon found that a few small black insects crawled out of the cracks in the floor tiles, and they soon gathered around the medicinal powder.

"What is this?"

"The insects raised by the Thousand Machine Gate will emit a foul smell when they are trampled to death, and they can be smelled from a long distance. The floor tiles haven't been paved yet, and if you accidentally walk over them, you'll be exposed......"

It was the first time that the Night Terror Hall had seen this kind of early warning method, and he became more and more cautious at the moment, following Qing He's pace, and after bypassing all kinds of chaotic traps along the way, he came to the outside of the central Buddha Hall.

Although Zhongsun Jin went out, but the Buddha hall is not empty, the night terror hall leans on the corner of the verandah to check, you can see the three-zhang high Buddha inside the Buddha hall, there is a big golden Buddha.

At the window next to him, there were two men dressed in Qianjimen clothes, looking out and talking in a low voice:

"Xue Baijin definitely doesn't dare to rush hard, let's just watch the stove carefully, don't panic ......"

"This Xue Baijin is also stupid, now the master and the three fathers-in-law have gone outside, if they use the plan of attacking the east and the west at this time, arrange three or two masters, and quietly touch this place from the rear......"

"It's not nonsense, don't you know the master's ability? In the blink of an eye, Xue Baijin can still keep the master single-handedly? ”

"It's ...... too"

When Fan Qinghe heard these words, his eyes were a little strange, and after a little observation, he raised his hand to signal the big golden Buddha placed in the hall.

The Night Terror Hall did not see the equipment for refining medicine, and estimated that the entrance to the alchemy room was under the Golden Buddha, and he didn't say much at the moment, letting Qing He wait in place, and he quietly touched the Buddha Hall.

The two Qianjimen disciples who were talking in the Buddha Hall seemed to be the pharmacist who helped them, and it was easy for the Night Terror Hall to solve it, but it was difficult to solve it without alarming Zhongsun Jin.

He suppressed his footsteps, without even bringing up the air flow, entered the Buddha hall, silently came to the back of the two pharmacists, and waited for the sound of speech to stop, before raising his finger to the back of the two of them to make an inch.

Boom~

Two faint whispers came out at the same time.

The two pharmacists standing at the window immediately fell to the ground with a limp.

Night Terror quickly dragged the two of them down, then slowly lowered them and leaned against the wall, making sure that there was no one else around, and hooked their hands slightly.

Seeing this, Fan Qinghe quietly entered the Buddha hall, carefully checked the left and right, and came to the solemn golden Buddha of Baoxiang, leaning against the floor and listening, it can be seen that there are indeed subtle footsteps below, and he said in a suppressed voice at the moment:

"There must be movement as soon as it opens, what now?"

Night Terror Hall judged the distance between Xia Zhongsun Jin and Bing Tuo Tuo, and said in a low voice:

"As long as you open it, I will deal with the pharmacist below first, you go to find the elixir or the pill, and I will join forces with Bai Jin outside to drag Zhongsun Jin. If you can't find it, just leave, and I'll follow. ”

Fan Qinghe bowed his head slightly, and then began to slowly circle around the Golden Buddha, looking for a mechanism to open the underground alchemy room......
