Chapter 18, The Guillotine
"What advice does Senior Brother have?"
Between Qingyun Peak and the back mountain was a fierce pine forest, and Lu Yuan shook his flying sword and landed in the depths of the forest.
The red pine strange stones, the branches are scattered, the strange shadows are uneven and cover the sky, casting a dark shadow in the forest, the red pine crown seems to be splashed with blood, and the cinnabar is paved.
Zhu Wuxian's eyes narrowed, he understood seven or eight points in his heart, and his tone faded.
Lu Yuan was the first to fall, his body was hidden in the shade of the tree, his face could not be seen clearly, and his voice was like a duck's strange cry, "The fairy road is difficult, there is a great wealth for your brother, instead of fighting to the death, it is better to be a true fairy in the soft fragrance bush for a night." ”
"What the senior brother is saying, the senior brother can't understand." Zhu Wuxian's fingers secretly picked up a talisman he had just bought, and the cultivation of the refining body could not be revealed in front of outsiders, so he had to hide it as much as possible.
"The spirit stone is an obstacle to the improvement of cultivation, senior brother, I am the most benevolent, help you move this big obstacle, and throw the storage bag on your waist over, otherwise..."
"Otherwise, kneel down and beg me to give you the storage bag?" “
He also encountered thieves who blocked the road and robbed in the mortal world, but he never thought that the people in the immortal gate were more daring, and they didn't even know how to hide it, so they came out with a big grin, but they wanted to see what is the difference between the people who cultivate immortals and seek the Tao and the stupid men and fools in the mortal world, and now it seems that there is not much difference!
"Poof."
Hearing the teasing in Zhu Wu's wound, Lu Yuan became angry and raised his sword to stab him.
A clear pine pattern bronze Dao sword, made by Lu Yuan like a burning stick, the tip of the sword is not right, the sword body is crooked, it does not look like a cultivator at all, but like a rogue who sells acrobatics in the market.
"It's a pity that a good sword fell into your hands and was ruined!" Zhu Wuxian did not dodge or dodge, his tone was indifferent, he also wanted to try his qi refining combat power, he could already be on par with the demon beasts of the sixth layer of qi refining with his body refining alone, but this qi refining cultivation had never fought against anyone.
The test is imminent, and the cultivation of the body cannot be used, he has to have a number of his strength!
When Lu Yuan heard this, he was embarrassed again, and kept screaming in his mouth, he had to kill the person in front of him even if he suffered a lot of damage to his essence and blood, and it was just that others laughed at me, you are a new entry green shirt, and you dare to say such things to me if you are a cultivator who refines qi one or two times?!
"Brush!"
The bronze sword flew up, piercing the air like a streamer, slashing towards Zhu Wuxian.
After all, those who cultivate immortals are cultivators, as long as they have spiritual power, no matter how ugly they look, they are not comparable to ordinary people.
"Bell!"
Zhu Wuxian was prepared, standing in place, the talisman at his fingertips quietly entered spiritual power, and a bronze bell was upside down, covering him inside.
The Loose Sword collided with the bell with a loud bang and dissipated in the strange forest.
The bronze bell is not only not as bright yellow as the diamond talisman used by Cui Wei, but the details of the lines on the bell are also dull.
"After all, it is a low-grade golden bell talisman exchanged for a low-grade spirit stone, and it is reasonable that it is not as good as Cui Wei's top-grade talisman."
Zhu Wuxian nodded secretly.
Lu Yuan put his two hands to his mouth, biting his index finger one by one, covering half of his face, like a child licking his fingers after eating sugar.
A line of blood appeared on each of the ten fingers, leading to the hilt of the pine-patterned sword.
"Boy, you will die today." Lu Yuan shouted loudly, and a trace of mad joy could barely be seen on his ugly face.
A line of blood appeared on each side of the pine sword, running from the hilt to the tip of the sword, and the original clear Dao sword immediately became bright and demonic, and its murderous nature increased dramatically, exuding greed for blood.
"Click!"
In just one fell swoop, the phantom of the upside-down bronze bell was smashed.
Zhu Wuxian was not in a hurry, pinched a trick casually, turned into a colorful five-color streamer, flew by the sword body, and clearly felt the cold aura emanating from the sword body.
His current Five Elements Escape Technique has been slightly successful, and he can sweep ten zhang with one breath, plus the five elements spiritual power is mellow and rotates endlessly, and the sweep distance of three or five zhang is no longer too much consumption.
"Whew!"
The talisman in his hand turned into a wind blade and slashed towards the blood line connected to Lu Yuan's ten fingers, this blood line was the key to the sudden increase in the power of the Loose Pattern Sword, and after breaking this blood line, the Loose Pattern Sword was not a matter of concern.
When Lu Yuan saw the wind blade coming, his face was obviously flustered, and he was at a loss for what to do, and his ten fingers changed unfamiliarly.
I wanted to turn the blade of the sword and face the wind blade, but I made a clumsy arc and stabbed diagonally forward, striking crookedly to avoid the wind blade's slash.
"Not only have you ruined this sword, but you have also ruined this sword-fighting technique." I wish to open my mouth sincerely and pierce Lu Yuan's heart.
He had already seen that Lu Yuankong had the cultivation of the fourth layer of qi refining, the spells were not clear, the swordsmanship was not refined, the dantian aura was empty, the body muscles and bones were relaxed, and there was an empty frame of the quadruple qi refining, at best, he had the strength of the triple qi refining.
It's all about this ancient sword with a loose pattern that doesn't know the grade and the sword art of sacrificing the sword with blood.
Lu Yuan's face turned pale, and then he turned red with anger, flashing a ruthless color, the blood on his ten fingers was a little bigger, and the condensed blood line was also thicker.
The blood on the sword's body became thicker, and the loop became more and more free.
"The sword is a small gun, there are thirteen types of stabbing and washing four-style mother swords, such as collapse and agitation, and other thirteen types of changes, its sharpest point is at the tip of the sword, and when the enemy is more stabbed, the flying sword is still like this, and the momentum of the straight rush is pressed on the tip of the sword by the power of the spirit pattern......"
The five-color colorful streamer changed its body shape by rubbing the flying sword in the red pine forest, and every time it was only a line, but this line was like a moat, and it couldn't be crossed no matter what.
Seeing Lu Yuan's clumsy imperial envoy flying sword, Zhu Wuxian couldn't help but say, every time a new recruit came to the border army, he personally taught him, from the new green-skinned boy who entered the camp to the veteran oil who talked and laughed as usual in the sword and gun forest, I don't know how many soldiers and generals on the battlefield were brought out.
He had never practiced the method of flying swords, but he still had the eyesight to practice the sword and sword, the bayonet and the stick, and the vertical and horizontal practice of the battlefield, and he could see at a glance the flaws of Lu Yuan's sword.
Being preached by a new disciple in green shirts, Lu Yuan's face was red and white for a while, and he was so ashamed that he couldn't speak, although he couldn't understand what he was saying, he could barely know that he had to fly more and slash less.
The blood line connecting the hilt of the sword rose slightly, and the pine sword left a sharp sword aura in the red pine forest.
The sword qi grazed the red pine, leaving deep sword marks, red juice flowed out of the sword marks, and the pine wood seemed to be bleeding.
"Well, yes, yes." Zhu Wuxian nodded, this person's understanding was not superior among the recruits he had brought in the past, but it could barely be regarded as a middle-class person.
"Your flying sword is too strong, it not only consumes its own spiritual power, but it is also very stiff when it returns, and it is okay to practice in private, but it is slightly insufficient to face the enemy in battle."
"Poof!"
Lu Yuan sprayed a mouthful of blood on the flying sword, his face was ugly, and he said loudly, "I am a high-grade spiritual root, faded to the mortal fetus in March, and set foot on the immortal road, which of the five peak elders does not know that I am Qingyun Peak Lu Yuan, and they all praise me as a hidden dragon of the Xuanyi Sect, and it is your turn to teach me a Qingyi disciple who has been in the beginner for less than three years?" “
"Is it another Nakayong who wastes his talents?" Zhu Wuxian muttered, whether he was once in the mundane or now in Xianmen, his talent can be regarded as medium at most, and he can cultivate today, all by virtue of the word 'diligence', reading military books with candles, and practicing day and night.
"Arrogance hurts people!"
"Bang dang!"
The pine-patterned sword landed on the strange rock in the pine forest, Lu Yuan's eyes widened, his body stiffened, and he pointed forward with one hand, facing the ground, and fell straight to the ground.
He ran out of blood and died!
Zhu Wuxian blinked, not knowing if he was cheating on himself, and then killed himself with a sword, or if he was really dead.
"Phew"
The talisman burned, and a condensed but not dispersed qi was wrapped around the fingertips, like an arm driven, a gas talisman!
Zhu Wuxian controlled the qi talisman and turned Lu Yuan's body over, facing up.
The Sleeping Tiger Gong can not only temper the flesh and blood, but also the five senses and souls can be refined together, and from a distance of a few zhang, it is clear that the pale face has no blood, and the breath in the mouth and nose slowly dissipates, and the eyelids are already white.
Hooked the storage bag on Lu Yuan's waist, and at the moment before the effect of the qi charm dissipated, Zhu Wuxian got the storage bag.
"Is this really dead? There is no reaction to take his storage bag, since you are dead, this corpse cannot be kept, and it will only increase the disaster. ”
One foot stepped on the pine sword, and between his five fingers was a few flaming talismans.
"Buzz."
The pine sword trembled for a while, and wanted to rise, wishing no harm to secretly use the body refining and cultivation, and firmly stepped on it, the copper sword couldn't move a bit.
"Wait, senior brother spare your life!"
Lu Yuan got up and knelt on the ground and kowtowed, his face still looking like a bloodless dead man.
"Yo, alive again?!"
Zhu Wuxian said with a smile, the flying sword under his feet was still trembling in vain, and the four talismans between his fingers had been burned halfway.
He wanted to pretend to be dead, and when Zhu Wuxian came over, he secretly made a flying sword and took his life from behind, but he didn't expect Zhu Wuwu to be fooled, a few feet away, and he didn't know what spell he used, and he couldn't move after the flying sword was stepped on.
Seeing that the talisman was coming, his essence blood had indeed been almost consumed, and the spiritual power in his body had been exhausted, leaving the last spiritual power to drive the flying sword in vain.
"Bang bang bang..."
Lu Yuan couldn't stop kowtowing, and said while kowtowing, "Senior brother spare my life, I will exchange the secret news of this test disciple for my dog's life..."
Regardless of Zhu Wuwu's reaction, he still said while knocking, "In the past, the new disciples have been tested repeatedly, and they are all the sect masters and Taishang in the former valley who have asked questions, and this time a new ancient dynasty ruins have been discovered, and in order to hide the rumors and monopolize the benefits, it took a few years to break the ruins, and this time the test is in that ruins." “
Zhu Wuxian was a little impatient, squeezed his eyebrows, and only a little bit of the talisman between his five fingers was clamped, "I know all this, let's have something fresh." ”
"This site is a thousand years ago the Immortal Dynasty, the palace site of the Wu Dynasty, there are rumors, the founding monarchs of the Zhao Yan and Wei Kingdoms are all the officials of the Wu Dynasty, taking advantage of the weakness of the Wu Dynasty, to carve up the Wu Dynasty, there are more rumors that the Wu Dynasty is strong, above the court, the military attache refining the body, the civil official refining qi, the cultivation method of the three immortal sects is derived from the remnants of the civil officials of the Wu Dynasty, and the ruins have the remnants of the Wu Dynasty's refining method, if you can get it, the refining of the gas can cut the foundation, and the foundation can be used to fight the golden pill."
Lu Yuan was in a hurry, so he couldn't care about much, and told the secret news he overheard when he was in the bamboo forest and the good friends.
"Oh, really?"
Zhu Wuxian didn't care, he already had a family heirloom Sleeping Tiger Skill in his body, and now there was nothing to attract him except for the method of spiritual food refining, and the Wu Dynasty could be divided by his own minions, and it was not much stronger, at most it was a straw bale.
A thousand-year-old palace? Hey, don't say anything about body refining exercises, I'm afraid there won't even be a living thing except broken bricks and tiles!
"Yes, yes." Lu Yuan saw that the talisman in Zhu Wuxian's hand was not stimulated, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Senior brother, what do you want to know, just say, I am well-informed, and I must know everything, and I will say everything." ”
Zhu Wuxian glanced up and down, and sighed slightly, "How did you pretend to be dead just now, why didn't any traces show up." ”
Hearing the sigh, Lu Yuanxin brought it up again, "That's a family heirloom, one of the three kinds of talismans recorded in the tattered talisman you bought, Senior Brother. ”
"The tattered talisman I bought?" Zhu Wuxian's brows furrowed.
"That's right, the one who sold you the rune book to my senior brother is my sister, after my father died, I left a few life-saving runes and the flying sword under your feet, and left the broken rune book to my sister, and I have used up the last rune, but you can learn the talisman making method on the tattered rune book and draw it yourself."
Lu Yuan lowered his head, his voice trembling, for fear of provoking Zhu Wuxian and unhappy.
"Okay, last question." Zhu Wuxian put away the only corner of a few talismans, and his voice was a little brisk.
Lu Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Senior brother, what do you say?" ”
"This is not far from Qingyun Peak, if you come to kill me, you are not afraid of being discovered?"
"This red pine forest is very strange, there are no living creatures, there are no rare grasses, there are no rare spirit beasts, the disciples of each peak are busy cultivating, and they will not fall here on weekdays.
In addition, I stumbled upon the fact that if I threw a dead thing on this night, the roots of the pine forest would cover it, and if I had succeeded in it, after the night, you would have disappeared mysteriously and could not find my head......"
"In that case, then please die!"
"Huh!"
Zhu Wuxian kicked on the hilt of the sword, and the flying sword pierced directly into Lu Yuan's heart.
Lu Yuan's eyes widened, blood flowed from his mouth, and he pointed weakly at Zhu Wuxian, "You... You.."
"What are you, I didn't say I would spare your life." I wish you no injuries and don't hesitate to spread your hands, there are a lot of slippery soldiers in the barracks, and you can deal with them, and I wish you no injuries are not old-fashioned and stubborn.
Lu Yuan lowered his head rudely.
"Good, good, good." A crisp round of applause came from overhead.
On top of the red pine blood-colored pine crown stood a disciple in a black robe, with a scar on his face, passing dangerously under his eyes, carrying a broadsword like a door panel.
"Shoot ruthlessly, punish the traitor and eliminate the evil, the rough and the fine, and the action is thoughtful, this junior brother, I don't know if I am interested in coming to our guillotine."
I wish my eyes tightened, and I finally came out!
From the moment he fell into this pine forest, he had a feeling of being watched like a man's back on his back.
I have been circling with Lu Yuan for so long, just to wait for him to come out!
