Chapter 11: Ethereal Peaks

Chen Jiusi thought about it for a while, then he collected his mind and came to the bushes where he was hiding before, and saw that the spear was still in place, and thought: "This is the 'Tiger Head Zhan Golden Gun' that Brother Lei said, and it is still here!" Well, I guess the two teenagers were just fighting and forgot about this section. ”

On a whim, he stretched out his hand and pulled it a few times, but he didn't move, and he couldn't help but be shocked: "This gun is heavy, not to mention more than 100 catties, how can Brother Lei move?" ”

As Chen Jiusi spoke, he circled around the tiger-headed golden spear a few times, muttered for a long time, and finally paid attention.

I saw that he found some sharp stones on the branches, and dug out a big hole in the place where the gun entered, only to see the gun crash to the ground.

He grabbed the body of the gun and lifted it a few more times, until he was so tired that he was out of breath, but he still didn't move, so he had to squat aside, making it difficult: "This gun is so heavy, I can't even hold it, where should I hide it?" Shine! I'll bury my spear here, and who would have thought of it? ”

Then he dug a long hole, buried the gun, and sprinkled some leaves on the ground. By this time, it was getting late, so he rested in the bushes for the night, and the next morning he went up the mountain.

He thought to himself that since the young man who chased and killed Lei Batian had been sent to guard such an important place as the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, his status was not low, and he was afraid that he had been identified as an accomplice, and he took the big road for fear of his whereabouts being revealed, so he chose the wilderness path and walked.

After walking for seven or eight miles, the mountain road gradually became cloudy and misty, ethereal, as if in a fairyland on earth.

Chen Jiusi looked up, and saw a boulder shaped like an eagle's beak not far away, engraved with the words "Ethereal Peak", and couldn't help but praise: "This place is like a fairy mountain separated by a sea of clouds, such as the Xialing jade belt, and it does not live up to the name of 'Ethereal Peak'." ”

At this time, the mountain road became more and more dangerous, and there were sometimes breaks, the gap was deep and wide, and non-monks could not walk, so Chen Jiusi had to abandon the path and take the big road.

The main road is paved with bluestone steps, straight into the sky, like a road to the sky.

Chen Jiusi climbed the stairs, walked hundreds of stone steps, was so tired and out of breath, and finally reached the peak.

The entrance to the summit is very open, and there is nothing left, except for a huge stone monument standing majestically.

On the stele, there are five words engraved with "Nine Heavens Ethereal Building". These five big characters are vigorous and upright, the weather is thousands, and there must be hills and ravines in the chest of the person with the inscription.

Chen Jiusi didn't know calligraphy and painting, and he didn't go to school, so he only took advantage of the time when he was herding cattle to listen to his lectures in the school for a few years. Although there is no literary brilliance, but also know a lot of words, see the stone tablet on the word "Chen Tuo", know that it is the name of the person, secretly: "this" Chen Tuo" who is also? Could it be the name of the immortals? ”

He stood on the top of the peak, and felt that his mind was comfortable, and as far as he could see, the clouds were turbulent, and the peaks were competing with each other. With a thought in his heart, he said: "The eldest husband should climb to the top and watch the thousands of mountains compete side by side." ”

After the stele, after walking more than 100 steps, it is a huge square. The square is built of igneous rock, which is extremely solemn and atmospheric.

On the square, there is another high platform about two feet. There were two people in the high platform facing each other from north to south and standing in it.

The man on the south side was dressed in a white robe, with a purple and gold crown on his head, and a beard like a god. The other person is a swallow-jawed tiger beard, more than eight feet tall, holding a giant sword, and his appearance is extremely majestic.

Under the high platform, there are still more than 1,000 people sitting in the square with their backs to the stone monument. Most of these people were men and women, most of them were dressed in white robes, and the rest of them were dressed in different colors.

Chen Jiusi had heard Lei Batian talk about it, and he knew that the people in white robes were all from the Nine Heavens Ethereal Tower.

He looked around and saw that there were only a few people on the west side of the square. These men were also dressed in white, but they were not robes, but clothes.

A white-clothed masked woman sat alone at the head, her starry eyes were bright, her eyebrows were trimmed, and a terrifying majesty was invisible.

Behind her sat two teenagers, a man and a woman, the man was handsome and handsome, and the woman's eyebrows were picturesque. After the boy, there were four more masked women in white, who were also brilliant.

The two teenagers Chen Jiusi had seen it, it was the girl who met and teased him half a month ago, and the young man was her senior brother.

When he saw these two people, he secretly rejoiced in his heart: "They are really here!" But I don't know if she still remembers me? ”

At this time, I only heard the majestic man on the high platform: "As the saying goes: 'The soldiers are fierce and the war is dangerous. "If my disciple of Martial Arts City dies in the battle array, it will be fine, but this is not the case. On the battlefield, millions of people saw with their own eyes that it was your elders of the Nine Heavens Ethereal Tower who suddenly attacked and killed them. ”

On the top of this ethereal peak, the wind and clouds surged, and the sound of whistling came and went, but the voice of this person clearly came into everyone's ears, as if whispering in the ear.

Chen Jiusi secretly wondered in his heart: "This person's voice is not very loud, why can I hear it so clearly?" ”

How did he know that this heroic man was named Feng Mantian, the city lord of the martial arts city of Jiang Guoxiu's true holy land, and he was the top figure in the world.

Feng Mantian came to the Nine Heavens Ethereal Tower this time to comment on the killing of his disciples.

When the world is falling apart, the countries are competing for hegemony, and there are attacks on each other, Jiang and Chu have been at odds for a long time.

This year, the flood of Chu was harmed, and then there was plague and drought, which made the state devastation. Jiang Guo took advantage of this time to provoke a war and was eager to do it.

Jiang Guo has always been fierce among the people, and the sergeants are even more known for being fearless of death, and with the help of the masters of Wulin City, they were invincible for a while, and they were defeated and lost by Chu State.

At this time, the Nine Heavens Ethereal Tower sent reinforcements from masters, killed several masters in Wulin City in a row, and defeated the commander of Jiang State in front of the battle, and finally turned the Chu State army into a safe one.

The masters sent by the Nine Heavens Ethereal Tower to reinforce were the four elders of the faction, collectively known as the "Four Hao of the Ethereal Peak".

When these four elders first came to the battle array, they saw that Jiang Guo's army was slashing and seizing the pass, and they were extremely brave, and before seeing the three armies, there were several people who were brave and good at fighting, brave and resolute, and they were shocked when they cut people like mustard.

Si Hao immediately inquired about the chief generals in the army, and learned that these people were extremely skilled and good at leading the troops, and many of the generals in the country died at their hands.

Si Hao felt the tragic death of the sergeant, and in a fit of rage, he attacked and killed those people when the two armies were fighting.

They didn't know that the person they killed was the proud disciple of the city lord of Wulin City.

Feng Mantian sent them to the battlefield just to sharpen their Dao heart. Unexpectedly, he gave Sihao a pot and killed them all. When Feng Mantian heard about this, he was furious, and brought his disciples to the Ethereal Peak to be held accountable.

On this high platform, the white-robed Taoist who confronted the wind was the head of the Nine Heavens Ethereal Building, named Chen Tuo, known as Mr. Baiyun, and was one of the top masters who stood side by side with the wind and the sky.

Chen Shuben was in retreat in the sect, and when he heard that the martial arts city lord was coming to the sky, he felt very difficult to understand, and when he asked about it, he knew about the four haos, and he didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and he came out to greet him, saying: "The martial arts city lord is coming to the Ethereal Peak, I don't know what is going on?" ”

Feng Mantian said coldly: "Master Chen, you stand side by side with my martial arts city in the Nine Heavens Ethereal Tower, although you are not in the same direction, you are a fellow person." Now that you are bullying the small with the big and killing my disciples in Wulin City, how should this matter be resolved? ”

Chen Shu said: "The Wind City Lord's words are wrong. If the rivers and lakes are vendettas, the heroes are fighting, and I send people to attack and assassinate, it is not right for them. But this time, the two countries are fighting, not giving up an inch of land, not taking a step back, no matter whether they live or die, whether they win or lose. Since it is a matter of life, it is also common sense that it is necessary not to violate the harmony of heaven and not to do dirty, and to use some means. ”

When Feng Mantian heard this, he was annoyed and said: "It is a reason that your disciple of the Nine Heavens Ethereal Tower killed someone, and my disciple of Wulin City died because he was a mustard, how can there be such a reason in the world." Hmph, today I came up to the Ethereal Peak in the sky, just to ask for an explanation. How do you expect that you are the head of Chen, as the head of a faction, and there are many masters in the world, so that you do not distinguish between right and wrong, and shield the people, will not make the people of the world despised? ”

Chen Tuan said with a smile: "What people in the world like to think, that's the business of people in the world." Since Chen Tong has been in charge of the Ethereal Peak for more than 200 years, he has experienced a lot of winds and waves, resolving sectarian disputes internally, and helping the country to stand up externally, and has never had any selfishness. This is something that is obvious to all, and it can be reversed and erased without a few words from you, the Lord of Wind City. ”

Feng Mantian said sharply: "Master Chen, you have such a tough attitude, do you want the two major sects to go to war?" ”

Chen Shu glanced at him and sneered, "Heh, isn't this just as the Wind City Lord intended?" ”

Feng Mantian said angrily: "What do you mean by this? Could it be that you are the only one in the world who is the Holy Land of Cultivation, and my Martial Arts City is a secular sect, and I only think about fighting and killing? ”

Chen Shu's face suddenly turned pale, and he said: "My Chu country is weak, there are few major generals, and this year there is a natural disaster, and the internal worries are deepening. There are some barbarian states that are eyeing each other, which makes the people of my Chu country uneasy. I, a cultivator, should think of the common people in order to be able to prove the great way. Therefore, the affairs of the sect are just small things, and the affairs of the country are related to the people's livelihood, which is a big matter. ”

Feng Mantian said: "We are talking about the killing of my disciples in Wulin City, what are you doing about these many countries and people?" Whether your Chu country is prosperous or weak, what does it have to do with me? ”

Chen Shu said: "The people present are not fools. Why does the Lord of Windy City bother with me? You just used the excuse that your disciple was killed, and you wanted to provoke the two factions to merge, and take the opportunity to weaken the strength of my Nine Heavens Ethereal Tower. Hmph, if I put the four elders in your hands today, you will not be relentless, and you will kill them quickly. My Ethereal Peak lacks the four masters, but your Martial Arts City has not lost at all, and the strength of your Martial Arts City is far stronger than my Misty Peak. Lord of the Windy City, you have a good wishful thinking. ”

The wind swept the sky and said: "For tens of thousands of years, my martial arts city and your Nine Heavens Ethereal Tower have been holy places, and all the monks in the world have admired them. Although the two factions fought each other more than 1,000 years ago, they have always been distinct and have never had a dispute. The head of Chen Tuan said such things today, slandering me all over the world, but where did he put Wulin City? ”

Chen Shu said: "Although the national strength of my Chu State is weak, it is not a barbarian state that can provoke. My Ethereal Peak is not as famous as your Martial Arts City, and it is not that you can be bullied at will. If you want to fight, you will fight, no need to say more, Chen Shu is waiting. ”

Hearing this, Chen Jiusi was shocked: "It turns out that he is 'Chen Jun'!" The fruit is like a god. ”

Although he is young and knowledgeable, and he doesn't understand national affairs, he can't help but be secretly impressed when he sees Chen Tuan talking eloquently, neither humble nor arrogant.

Before the wind could speak, everyone felt that a woman in white had appeared on the high platform, and it was the masked woman sitting at the head of the west side of the square.

I only heard her say: "Wind City Lord, Master Chen, you two are both masters of the same faction, and you are also a big man who has been powerful in the world for hundreds of years, and you are admired by monks all over the world, how can you still be so angry?" ”

Chen Tuan said: "Palace master, it's not that Chen Tuan is angry, but someone is bullying people too much. You are a bystander, how can you not understand the tricks of some people? ”

Feng Mantian snorted coldly: "Heh, it's obvious that my disciple was killed, I just came to ask for an explanation, how did I become a villain?" But I've deceived people too much! Hmph, the world can't lift the word 'reason'. Although there are many people in your Ethereal Peak, I don't eat dry rice when the wind is all over the sky. ”

On the square, more than 1,000 people heard this, and their hearts were all in the same place, and they secretly thought: "It's time to do it!" ”

It must be known that the so-called "commentary" on the rivers and lakes is just a statement, and often if you don't agree with it, you will fight hard.

Chen Shu sighed: "Today's matter, you and I have our own opinions, even if we talk about it for a few days, it will be difficult to convince the other party, so we can only cultivate to determine the strength and weakness to win or lose." The Lord of the Wind City is the leader of today's cultivators, I Chen Shu is immoral and incompetent, and I am worthy of being the Lord of the Ethereal Peak, and I may not be the opponent of the Lord of the Wind City, but when the matter is approaching, I can't retreat and avoid the battle, so I have to fight hard. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the masked woman and said, "Fortunately, the Xuanbing Palace Lord is here today, just to be a witness for the two of us." ”

The masked woman said, "Master Chen, Lord of Wind City, do you really have to fight?" With the cultivation of the two of you, fight with all your might, but I am afraid that this ethereal peak will no longer exist. ”

This masked woman is the lord of the Xuanbing Palace, the true holy land of the Roland Cultivation Kingdom, although she is as famous as Feng Mantian, Chen Tuan and others, she became famous hundreds of years earlier.

The Roland Kingdom is located in the west of the Chu State, although it is not a big country in the world, and it is not comparable to small countries such as Guyu and Gushu.

The Lord of Xuanbing Palace came to the east this time, and only brought a few disciples, but he heard about the dispute between Wulin City and the Nine Heavens Ethereal Tower, so he came to stop fighting.

The wind said loudly: "Heh, if you want to fight, you will fight, where do you come from so many famous halls?" In a contest, the strong survive, and the weak die, what else do you need to witness? If you are afraid of ruining the Ethereal Peak, let's go to the sky to fight. ”

As soon as the words were finished, I heard someone say loudly: "It is worthy of being the city lord of Wulin City, the holy lord of a holy land, so majestic!" It's not amazing! ”

When everyone heard this, they followed the prestige and saw four old men with childish faces and crane hair coming together.

When Feng Mantian saw these four people, he was furious and said, "Good thief, dare to come here?" Before he could finish speaking, an invisible wave was released from his body.

The fluctuation came very quickly, and in an instant, it had filled the square. Everyone on the field suddenly wondered in their chests and their breath was disordered.

Chen Jian was secretly anxious: "Why did you come back at this time?" This wind is not a good person, and he will not give up easily. ”

The Xuanbing Palace Lord thought: "The Lord of Martial Arts City is famous all over the world, and it really deserves its reputation. This coercion alone is no longer under me. ”
