This was the first quarrel that broke out.

The master and apprentice twisted each other, and every time they met alone, they broke up with unyielding firmness.

Meng Li continued to push forward his thoughts, and he soaked in the library day and night in anger, rummaging through the cave over and over again, vowing to find out its true face and find a way to unravel the fate of his master.

But the more he learned and studied the Dao, the more the sense of despair brought by this ancient array weighed heavily on his heart.

Such something almost unbreakable. The master said that it was guarding the things of the Immortal Court, and Meng Li now fully believed it.

He remembered that "the winter solstice is in Ding, and the summer solstice is in Gui", and thought that the star insect was slowly swimming like an annual ring, but he couldn't find any trace of it in the calculated place, and it suddenly appeared when he was caught off guard. It's chaotic.

He also crossed the back door of the main hall without saying a word in front of the master, but all he saw was the wind and snow cliffs, and he couldn't find the way to enter the mound hall at all.

Qu Zhoufu didn't rush to talk to Yang Yan, just spent these days quietly, and Meng Li gradually began to feel that the old man was worried about some other things.

After realizing this, he was a little stunned and incredulous, this fateful ancient formation that choked the throat of the Sword Gate was in front of him, did the old man have anything more important to worry about?

On the night when Meng Li was about to turn twenty, facing the young man's question, the old man sat in front of the hall and quietly looked at the night sky, and said softly: "He is coming back." ”

"Who?"

"Didn't you already know him?" Qu Zhoufu chuckled softly, "In that sealed stone cave. Don't you feel that you're similar to him? ”

"Who is he?"

Qu Zhoufu's face slowly drooped, and his voice was hoarse: "The traitor." ”

He looked at the sky: "Xiao Meng, you said that you don't want to bear this fate, but you have thought about it. What is guarded by the Hushan Sword Gate, is it the consequence after being discovered by outsiders? ”

The old man's sharp gaze looked at him like ice against a warm heart, and Meng Li's chest tightened suddenly.

The body freezes in place.

The ancient secret guarded by such a strange array, the trigger of the so-called "Immortal Court Advent World", if it leaks out. Who will covet it?

Meng Li often goes out, he has seen the world.

He never doubted that one day he would climb high enough to hold the Hushan Sword Gate high, but he also knew that for many people, the Hushan Sword Gate today was just a grasshopper that could be pressed to death with one finger.

"In fact, for thousands of years, it has been invisible." The old man didn't say any more, he looked at the cliff, as if he saw the huge bronze body in it, "It is from your ancestor's generation that its need for true qi suddenly became so obvious that it was immediately noticed. ”

"Who?" Meng Li felt his throat a little dry, "Who knows our secret now?" ”

"Happy Death Building." Qu Zhoufu said softly, "He sold the news to Huan Death Building. ”

Suffocating silence.

Pei Li didn't need to verify it in detail, and he knew that Meng Li had heard of this name, and at this time, the man's body had become a piece of stiff iron.

But in the next moment, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, his expression suddenly loosened, and he looked at the old man.

——The treacherous ancient array suddenly stopped being described as hateful, and Meng Li was extremely grateful for the power of this array at this time.

"There's a way, Master." Meng Li's voice was slightly hoarse, "You have the method of awakening the star worm. Is that right? ”

Of course it should be right.

Whoever sets up this ancient array should have the ability to protect that destined thing. And no matter how precious that thing is, this array should have the relative strength of the person.

And the entire Hushan Sword Gate was cast into one by this star-hugging array, so it should have the ability to fight against foreign enemies.

Meng Li looked at the old man expectantly, Qu Zhoufu was silent, and the corners of his mouth suddenly pulled out a somewhat strange smile. It seems to be helpless and bitter, and it seems to be nostalgic. Meng Li even felt a touch of pride.

"Haven't you been looking for this formation?" Qu Zhoufu stood up, bowed his head and sighed, "Then I'll show you." ”

“.”

The master and apprentice unlocked the door behind the hall and walked out.

The figures of the two were submerged in the gray mist, and the body of 'Yang Yan' stopped in front of the surging mist again.

Pei Ye gently raised his hand to press this mist, closed his eyes, Meng Li's brightly colored figure was outlined in his mind, and when he opened his eyes, he had broken away from Yang Yan's body and stood on a gray narrow mountain road.

His body became more powerful than ever, and he grew much taller. He knew this senior brother now, but he was still far from being able to control his body.

Now he is beginning to receive the man's gaze.

Behind him is the back door of the main hall, and in front of him is a high cliff of nearly 20 zhang, looking down like a high wave that is pouring down.

Meng Li really tried to climb up, but when he reached the top, he was just empty, just looking back at the lakes and mountains, it became more and more like a cage enclosed.

The old man in front of him did not take him up, but staggered to the house-like boulder, stretched out his hand, and the bronze poked out of his palm like a small snake.

The body stiffened as it watched the scene, the cold metal breaking through the flesh and burrowing into the rock with fine blood, and after a moment of silence, there was a suffocating movement in the mountain.

It was as if a twenty-zhang tall giant beast had woken up in front of him, but there wasn't much sound in fact, but Pei Ye could clearly feel the colossal chrysalis in it.

In just a few breaths, the copper touch stretched out by Qu Zhoufu seemed to have received something, and the rock split hole, and a bronze passage opened in front of the two of them.

"If you are the head of the house, this will be planted in your dantian." Qu Zhoufu withdrew the copper touch of his palm and smiled lightly.

But Meng Li obviously didn't have the leisure to answer, this body stepped into the bronze ground a little stiffly, this is. The abdominal cavity of the star worm.

It turns out that there is no entrance to the mound hall at all, and people can only enter here by relying on the guidance of star insects.

The shock of such a magnificent scene is indescribable, and thousands of years ago, unknown people cast such majestic and intricate bronze objects with unimaginable power, and at the end of this belly road, you can already faintly glimpse the palace that is as high as the kingdom of God.

Quaint, solemn, mysterious, silent. The breath of antiquity for thousands of years, the heaven-like bronze insect body climbed on the wall, and swarmed towards the center, just a glimpse of the tube, it was already suffocating and trembling.

Yes, it has guarded this palace for countless days and nights, from ancient times to the present day. As long as Hushan Jianmen hides here, Huan Death Lou will not be able to take away the secret treasure, nor will it be able to hurt anyone.

Isn't the sacrifice of Hushan Jianmen for thousands of years for this?

Pei Ye could almost see the man's thoughts at this time, and he didn't have to use any words for the old man, after coming here, he stood with the master for the first time.

And then they really came to an end.

Pei Ye looked up, only to feel that everything had fallen into silence, and this body was stagnant in an instant.

It is indeed a miraculous palace, more than ten zhang high, long and a stone's throw away, wide enough to run thirty horses.

It is undoubtedly a pilgrimage road, and at the dome of this road, the body of a winding insect is entwined, and the figure is like an ant insect below.

But for now.

"We couldn't have gotten in here." Qu Zhoufu said softly and stepped into the palace gently, his footsteps echoing in the dead silence, "But twenty-seven years ago, someone experienced the same anger, pain, and despair as you, and he ended it all. ”

The old man's low voice was a kind of frank indifference, Pei Ye looked at everything in front of him silently, the body of the star insect was gray and brittle from section to section, like dry mud, sensing the entry of outsiders, it struggled to twist its body, but it couldn't leave the dome at all.

Rust spread like moss in this hall, and all solemnity faded away from mystery, revealing a dark and ordinary appearance.

Only at the end of the center, some of the bronzes still maintained a faint dim light, and in the midst of their offerings, an eye-like white jade pendant floated there, as if waiting for its owner.

"He didn't get the way to it for the time being, so he said. I'll leave it here first. Qu Zhoufu said lightly, "This is the result of what you want to do after being made by someone. Thousands of years old, just in the bag. ”

After an unbearable silence, Meng Li squeezed out a dry byte in his throat: "Then, why are you still?"

"Why do you want to keep feeding it?" Qu Zhoufu said, "Because, it is slowly repairing itself; Because, perhaps, they will never find a way to get it; Because, if I don't continue to feed, what can I do? ”

"I'm just a dying eight lives, little Meng."

"So, what are we struggling with?" Meng Li said in a low voice, "Since they have decided to come, since the star worm has not had time to repair it successfully. ”

"That's how it was." Qu Zhoufu looked at him, "But now, we have a new hope. ”

"What?"

"You."

“.”

"It's you, Xiao Meng." Qu Zhoufu said softly, "You are so good, count back many generations, countless people can't learn the sword three times in their lifetime, let alone at your age." ”

What does this mean?"

"This is the cliff that will stop him." Qu Zhoufu said softly, "It took him forty years to fail it, so he can only leave the other half of this Gu Pei here." ”

The old man looked at him: "The virtual sword and the real sword are the foundation of the entry to the "Tao Void Ming Reality General Scripture". ”

Pei Ye looked at his body and walked up, and came to this Gu Pei, Qu Zhoufu followed behind and taught him to open it with the second part of the sword.

Pei Ye had seen [Zhaoyou] vacant, it was a hard and regular spherical depression on one side, and Pei Ye now knew that it had placed the bead; On the other side is a neatly hollowed out square, and I don't know what has been placed.

Now in front of Meng Li, the side containing the beads is empty, but on the square side, a dark and soft and smooth substance like cement is still floating inside, and it is taken away by it as soon as the eye touches, a small lump, but it is as deep as containing the entire starry sky.

Meng Li slowly stretched out his finger and pointed at the square cage, and the mass of material bit him at once, and then Pei Ye lost his perception of this body.

[Zhaoyou] is through everything from the level of Lingxuan, but it failed to record the experience of this body at this moment, but Pei Ye can roughly see that he is going through a trial.

This gloom climbed out of the cage and sank into Meng Li's body little by little.

Pei Ye lowered his head and observed here, except for a few lines of destroyed handwriting on the bronze pedestal, there were no clues that could be understood.

'Meng Li' raised his hand in a daze and looked at it, Pei Ye sighed a little tiredly, and pulled the time directly to the back.

In the dark hall, the master and apprentice broke out into a more fierce quarrel again.

When Meng Li got this strange book and went through menopause, Pei Ye had already guessed the old man's thoughts, which was also the confusion and torture that Yang Yan suffered in the end.

"We can do it, Xiao Meng." Qu Zhoufu said in a low voice, "These days, everyone knows that we almost turned against each other, you killed me, I hurt you, and you were captured and thrown into the dungeon by the family surnamed Sun. They had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. People will believe all this, and when the Happy Death Building is gone, you can leave at any time - at least you can fight for three days of blankness, and you can swim into the sea of people without a trace. ”

Meng Li smiled hoarsely: "Are you so sure that they will chase Xiao Yan?" ”

"The General Scripture of Dao Void and Clarity will not be trapped, and whoever the scripture wants to kill will definitely not be discovered." Qu Zhoufu said in a low voice, "Xiao Yan left quietly from the secret path, they will believe it." When they can't catch up with Xiao Yan and get the news that you left silently, they will find out that you have been transferred away from the mountain-"

"They'll catch up with Xiao Yan." Meng Li interrupted him expressionlessly.

“.”

"Qu Zhoufu, you're all!!" Meng Li said angrily, "If Huan Death Lou really believes that Xiao Yan took the Strange Scripture, won't they be able to catch up with a fool of five lives?!" ”

"Then you go faster." Qu Zhoufu said softly, without any expression, "Lest they find out that Xiao Yan has nothing on him, you are still acting in the dungeon." ”

Meng Li gritted his teeth and smashed the table in front of him with a punch.

Turbid yellow tea splashed on his eyebrows, the man panted roughly, and after a long time, he whispered: "None of us have to die for anyone, Master, if you have to die. Then save Xiao Yan. ”

Pei Ye came out of [Zhaoyu] again, this time it was not interrupted by the outside world, and he himself obviously felt unbearable fatigue.

The cool air of the autumn night poured into his mouth and nose, Pei Ye took a deep breath to change the turbidity in his chest and abdomen, and his head was still pounding and pounding.

Pei Ye pressed his forehead and said lightly: "Kitten, what time is it?" ”

"The end of the hour." The black cat said, "How's that?" ”

Pei Ye was silent for a while, and told it what Pei Zhong saw: "This is the second time I have seen thaumaturgical menopause, Yulu is a bead, and this is a ball of soft clay. ”

The black cat pondered, "It doesn't matter now, we need to figure out the origin and use of that bead - haven't you seen the rest of the story?" ”

"There's no need to look any further." Pei Ye pinched his head and whispered, "After tomorrow, I'm going to go back to 'that person'." ”

"Black robe?" The black cat whispered, "But we still don't know who he is, how did you lock him in [Shine]. Do you pass through the tributaries of Qu Zhoufu one by one? ”

"You don't have to. I'll see him soon. Pei Ye pinched a jade bead in a cage and raised his head slightly.

"What?"

On the horizon, a green shadow was sweeping down.

Pei Ye took the [Flowing Wind] and took the small cylinder from its limbs and legs, containing an extremely thin paper roll.

"Ethereal letter." Pei Ye said in a low voice.

He unfolded it slightly, his gaze skimming over the beautiful handwriting, and a finely drawn painting was printed underneath.

Meticulously revealed, the form of a god is possessed. It takes a lot of time and effort to paint such a picture, especially if the content only exists in the description and recollection of a young girl.

The three of them, the seeker, the warlock, and the painter worked together, and from the next day, they began to expand the girl's memories on paper, so as not to leak them.

It only took more than three days.

Before leaving, Pei Ye asked the girl for this painting in advance.

At this time, he looked down:

The frozen lake, the high snow-capped mountains, the frost forest hangs brightly, and the snow eaves fall into the ice. A young man with a handsome face stood in this realm, shook his hand expressionlessly, and nailed the long sword in his hand to the ground.

Pei Ye recognized this scene, it was the martial arts field where the young man ran out of the martial arts field with a knife when he opened his eyes in Yang Yan's body for the first time.
