Chapter 12: The Secret of the Hanging Mountain
When one's goal is clear, everything else seems to become unimportant.
Bai Yujing didn't eat, didn't drink water, and didn't even sleep, so he sat at the head of the bed and waited until night.
The silver moon hides behind the treetops.
Bai Yujing stared at the bright moon, but he kept thinking about the words that Ji Ya said before he died.
"If you live, don't come into contact with two kinds of people, one is the embroidered envoy of the Shaoyang Dynasty, and the other is the White Lotus, they both want to get this part of the inheritance power, which may be why the Hanging Mountain will hunt me down."
What kind of person is the embroiderer?
What kind of things do they do?
Since they are members of the imperial court, are they as the people say, with the power to rule the law and save the people from fire and water?
Branches on the moon.
Su Jianghuai stood up, fastened the saber around his waist, and looked at Bai Yujing, "Let's go?" ”
Bai Yujing nodded solemnly.
The two did not go out through the main entrance, but opened a window on the side and quietly jumped out.
Seeing Su Jianghuai's light figure jumping out of the window and jumping onto the roof not far away, Bai Yujing was quite envious in his heart, and he was not to be outdone, grabbed the railing on the side with one hand, and showed his ability to climb trees and walls that he had practiced for more than ten years, and followed in three or two.
"Not bad." Su Jianghuai laughed in a low voice.
Bai Yujing said in a low voice, "Where are we going?" ”
Su Jianghuai thought for a while, "Let's go and see where your good countrymen are." ”
She pulled out a strange-looking object.
It's an hourglass-like thing, it's not big, it can be grabbed by one hand, it's not sand, it's a small monster floating in it, the monster looks very distinctive, only one eye, one hand, no feet, a long beard, and a very strange expression, and red cheeks as if they had drunk too much.
He was holding out a hand, pointing in one direction.
"What is this?" Bai Yujing asked in surprise.
"Feixinweng." Su Jianghuai said: "He has two functions, the first is to transmit information, and the second is to guide the way, as long as his feces are placed somewhere else, he can point out the location of the dung." ”
Bai Yujing looked at the space below the hourglass, which was already full of round pale yellow dung balls, and said, "His dung...... Have you already put it down on Xue Can's body? ”
Su Jianghuai nodded, "Yes, so no matter where he goes, I can find him." ”
Bai Yujing said, "That'...... How did you find me? ”
"By feeling."
Su Jianghuai gave him a blank look and walked forward.
Needless to say, there are all cultivators here, and of course Bai Yujing knows that he has to be careful, so while the footsteps are very soft, his speed naturally slows down.
Standing on top of a side room, Su Jianghuai made a gesture, signaled Bai Yujing to whisper, and then secretly pointed downward, and then took out a bag wrapped in a black cloth, and took it away, there was a stack of white paper inside, these papers didn't look strange, but why should they be so protective?
Just when Bai Yujing was strange, Su Jianghuai took out one of the pieces of paper and put it on the eaves, and suddenly the paper disappeared, and instead it was able to look inside directly through the eaves, as if the bricks and tiles did not exist.
This time he was even stranger.
What is this all new?
Su Jianghuai didn't think so, looked down at it, and suddenly his face turned red when he brushed it.
Bai Yujing began to wonder again, and also looked down, his face turned red.
The people below are fighting fiercely, and now is a good opportunity to make a move.
Bai Yujing saw at a glance the two people who were fighting, one was Xue Can and the other was Lin Xiyue.
The paper was torn off by Su Jianghuai, she didn't look at it, and she didn't allow Bai Yujing to look at it, her hands were on her waist, she pouted her cheeks angrily, and glanced at the innocent young man beside her.
Bai Yujing looked stunned, this kind of fight without clothes was the first time he had seen the battle scene, and at most it was the villagers who made some meat jokes, but now that he saw it, this kind of visual impact made him a little overwhelmed for a while, and he was afraid that his words would alarm the people below, so he stretched out his hand to grab Su Jianghuai.
Su Jianghuai was like a frightened bird, being pulled like this, he quickly twisted his body, covered his chest with both hands, frowned, and his eyes seemed to be about to eat Bai Yujing.
The two of them shook like this, and there was a sound on the eaves, and Xue Can in the house immediately shouted: "Who is it!" ”
When he landed, the sound of the door opening and the sound of the sword was drawn in one go, and Xue Can appeared on the roof naked, squinting his eyes, looking at the empty roof.
"Anyone?" Gently footsteps fell, Lin Xiyue put on a simple dress and walked onto the roof.
Xue Can shook his head, Lin Xiyue grabbed his shirt, and said gently: "Xing, it was the birds that made a sound when they landed on the roof, what are you doing so nervous?" ”
Back in the room, Xue Can was no longer interested, put the long sword on the table casually, lay on the bed and said, "I saw Bai Yujing today. ”
"Oh?" Lin Xiyue smiled with interest, "He's here to thank you?" ”
"How could he thank me? His mother died as a result. ”
"You regret saving him now?"
Hearing this, Xue Can just shook his head indifferently, "It's just a good heart, there is nothing to regret, this world is impermanent, and it is inevitable that there will be mistakes in the road, as long as you don't make the same mistakes in the future." ”
Lin Xiyue caressed his chest, and said with a smile: "Don't think about the things on the side, now that we have reached the last step, when the master completes the soul and body cultivation tomorrow morning, it will be our opportunity." ”
Xue Can said slowly: "I probed Bai Yujing's body and found the corpse poison in his body. ”
Lin Xiyue frowned and said, "His body ...... How can there be corpse poison? ”
Xue Can said: "He has no cultivation, but he has corpse poison, the most incomprehensible thing for me, he can still live well." ”
Lin Xiyue took a deep breath: "It seems that he is quite lucky, and he has met a master who can help him suppress the corpse poison." ”
Xue Can said indifferently: "This is a variable, we must be vigilant, if he enters when the master is cultivated, I am afraid that something big will happen......"
Lin Xiyue said: "That ......"
The two glanced at each other, seemed to reach an agreement, grabbed the long sword on the table, and walked out.
After the footsteps disappeared, Bai Yujing was pushed out directly from behind the bed, and then Su Jianghuai also followed, patted the dust on his body, looked at Bai Yujing with disdain, and said, "Look at it, if I hadn't brought you here, you wouldn't have known that you were about to be killed." ”
Bai Yujing had mixed feelings in his heart, although he didn't understand what Xue Can said specifically, he also heard the killing intent in the other party's mouth.
"What are you going to do?" Su Jianghuai tilted his head and asked.
"If he wants to kill me, that's my enemy."
Bai Yujing clenched the Jinghong in his hand, and recalled in his heart the bits and pieces when he faced Xue Can, after all, he had known each other for more than ten years, but he didn't know that he would end up in a situation where swords faced each other and killed each other.
Su Jianghuai said: "I have to leave quickly." ”
Bai Yujing said: "Where to go?" ”
"They already had a plan, and now they want to kill you just so that you don't break their plan, if they can't find you, where do you think they will go?"
Hearing Su Jianghuai say this, Bai Yujing thought about it and guessed: "Go to find Yuxuzi?" ”
"Not bad." Su Jianghuai snapped his fingers, "As long as you follow them, you can find Yuxuzi." ”
The two immediately followed.
Su Jianghuai did not go first this time, but followed behind Bai Yujing.
She was very strange, Tou'er Feng Yebei and herself both investigated Bai Yujing's body and found no traces of corpse poison, but why did Xue Can say that he found corpse poison when he was investigating the breath? Could it be that it is hidden somewhere in the body?
It's impossible, even if she didn't check carefully and didn't find out what the problem was, how could Feng Yebei be wrong?
Unless this kid has changed his bloodline, after the former bloodline was washed away and planted with corpse poison, the bloodline change will make the person who was poisoned mistakenly think that there is still corpse poison in the body, but the change of bloodline is such a big thing, when there is no other person besides the Shaoyang royal family, who else can change it?
Odd......
Bai Yujing didn't notice the change in Su Jianghuai, and the desire for revenge in his chest had already burned to the extreme as Xue Can came out of his room.
"He's not here!" Xue Can stood at the door of the wing, burning a wooden chair that had smashed the door in anger.
"Won't you really be right? His purpose is ...... Master? ”
"Let's go!"
This time, the two of them were no longer slow, and Edgeworth rose up and headed straight into the sky.
Bai Yujing frowned suddenly, although they couldn't find themselves, but with such an imperial sword, how could they catch up for a while? …… Oops?
His body was grabbed by a hand, and then when he looked back, Su Jianghuai directly dragged him up, walked extremely fast, and went straight to the weird deep mountain.
At this time, her face was gloomy that Bai Yujing had never seen before.
"You...... What happened to you? Bai Yujing asked.
"I smell the demon." Su Jianghuai looked left and right and said: "I didn't open the qi just now, so naturally I didn't notice the surrounding aura, but now when I am chasing after the qi to investigate, there is a demonic aura here." ”
"Huh?" Bai Yujing was a little unresponsive, "What's so strange about this?" There are a lot of youkai on the Hanging Mountain. ”
"No!"
Su Jianghuai's face was angry for the first time, and her voice was very heavy: "This is the gate of cultivation, it is the immortal gate, it is the immortal gate licensed by Shaoyang, they are here to be ordered by the emperor to offer incense, except for demons, it is understandable that there are demons in other places in the Hanging Mountain, but only here can't!" ”
She stretched out her other hand, took out the Feixin, and twisted the lid on it, and the little white-bearded old man suddenly opened his only eye, and the beard was divided into two sides, and soared out.
Bai Yujing was stunned.
A naked little old man actually flew up with his beard.
