Chapter 16: The Seven Princes

Half a month later, the figures of Lu Hou and the three appeared at the foot of a mountain called Nanqiu Mountain in Fengguo.

Lu Hou was still dressed in a black robe, with his hands behind his back.

Beside him was Beihe and Modu, one carrying a gray package, and the other carrying a huge box shaped like a coffin.

The three of them stood at the foot of the mountain, facing the Nanqiu Mountain in front of them, and looked carefully.

This mountain is not very high, only hundreds of zhang in appearance, and it cannot be compared to the giant peak that rises from the ground where the Arashiyama Sect is located.

According to the information that Miss Yanyin gave to Lu Hou at the beginning, the fourth place on the Fengguo Void Realm list was an old Taoist, and this old Taoist priest was on Nanqiu Mountain.

After looking at it for a while, Lu Hou took the lead and walked along a path towards Nanqiu Mountain.

Beihe and Modu followed closely behind him.

It stands to reason that five people on the Fengguo Realm list have died, and no matter how stupid the rest are, they should be prepared and prepared, in case something suddenly happens one day.

However, most of these people ranked on the Fengguo Realm list, except for the spear god Zhao Bing and the god whip general, are all alone, which means that these people do not belong to any sect force, nor do they belong to the imperial court, so they have no backers.

Not only that, Beihe also knew that every time Lu Hou set off, Miss Yan Yin would completely grasp the information of the person to be killed, and if there was anything abnormal about these people, Miss Yan Yin would immediately notify Lu Hou.

The three of them followed the steep path and soon came to the top of the mountain, only to see that on the top of the mountain, there was a Taoist temple.

The Taoist temple is not big, only a lonely temple. Moreover, this two-story temple has fallen into disrepair for a long time, and its original color has fallen, and it looks like it has been through vicissitudes.

From the door plaque of the main hall, the three of Beihe also saw the three dim characters of "Puyang View".

Walking into it, not only in the courtyard, but also on the tiles of the main hall are overgrown with weeds, and many wild flowers have bloomed, attracting many bees and butterflies.

"Chirp...... Tweet ......"

A crisp and pleasant birdsong resounded in the Taoist temple.

Beihe looked up and saw a palm-sized yellow oriole, standing on top of the high wall and singing.

At this moment, a Taoist priest in his forties, holding a dust, walked out of the main hall, came to the three of Lu Hou, and bowed his hand and said: "Three Taoist friends, I don't know what you have to do with coming to my Puyang Temple. ”

"Forget the dust and the road is long. ”

Lu Hou didn't even glance at this person when he spoke, his eyes fell on the hall in front of him, and he seemed to be quite interested in the stone statue of the Sanqing Old Dao in the main hall.

"Master, he is resting in the inner sanctum, and I don't know what your friends are looking for him. The middle-aged Taoist priest asked.

"I have heard for a long time that the long swordsmanship of the Forgotten Dust Dao is good, so I came here, hoping to learn a thing or two from the Forgotten Dust Dao Chief. ”

After hearing Lu Hou's words, the middle-aged Taoist priest showed a look of embarrassment, but in the end he still spoke: "Daoist friend, wait a moment. ”

With that, he turned and retreated, disappearing into the hall.

At this point, the three of Lu Hou continued to wait here.

After only half a cup of tea, the previous middle-aged Taoist priest went and returned, came to the approach of Lu Hou and the others, and said: "Master respects his old man's health recently, so I'm afraid I will disappoint this Taoist friend." ”

Hearing this, Lu Hou nodded indifferently.

The middle-aged Taoist priest breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, because Lu Hou gave him the feeling, but the person who came was not good, but fortunately, it seemed that the other party was not ready to embarrass him.

"Bang!"

Just as the middle-aged Taoist priest thought of this, suddenly the position of his chest was hit hard.

Under this blow, a deep footprint collapsed in his chest, and his internal organs were directly broken.

Not only that, his figure flew out upside down, and with a "boom" smashed on the stone statue of Sanqing Old Road in the main hall, and his body was like a dead dog, falling into the legs of the stone statue sitting cross-legged.

At this time, the middle-aged Taoist priest still had a trace of vitality, this person tried to raise his head, and looked at Lu Hou who was slowly retracting his right foot, his face was full of disbelief and unwillingness.

But in the next breath, I saw that his head was hanging down, and he did not blink his eyes.

Facing this scene, Bei He's face seemed calm, but there was a sigh in his heart, every time Lu Hou made a move, he would cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and he would not leave any living mouth.

As for Modu, at this moment, he shook the box on his shoulder, smashed it to the ground with a bang, and then grabbed the two rings and pulled them, and in the click, the mechanism inside the box was activated.

Eventually, he opened the chest, revealing several weapons embedded in it.

Mo Du grabbed the heavy sword that was originally made by the one in the cave, which was one hundred and eight pounds, and after placing it flat on his palms, he presented it in front of Lu Hou.

Lu Hou grabbed the hilt of the sword, and then walked towards the main hall with a tiger's pace, bypassing the stone statue and the corpse of the middle-aged Taoist priest, and continued to walk towards the inner hall, and finally disappeared from the sight of Beihe and Modu.

At this point, Beihe and Modu glanced at each other and nodded.

Mo closed the chest on the ground, and then walked towards the inner sanctum. As for Beihe, he stood in place and guarded the gate of this Puyang Temple.

Lu Hou killed, the two of them were in charge of the pass, and Mo Du went to find other ways out such as the back door, and they couldn't let anyone leave this place alive.

For this kind of indiscriminate killing of innocents, Beihe was a little repulsed in his heart. The so-called unjust debtor has the owner, Lu Hou killed these people on the virtual realm list, even the old and weak women and children did not let go, the means were really cruel. Fortunately, there seems to be an obsession in Lu Hou's heart, that is, everyone should be killed by him personally, and there is no need to let the two of them do it.

In this way, Beihe was also greatly relieved in his heart, otherwise if he really wanted him to do it, he would definitely hesitate.

Although he wanted to be a peerless master like Lu Hou, he didn't want to be a butcher like Lu Hou with innocent blood on his hands.

Of course, not killing these innocent people does not mean that he has not killed people, the three of them have traveled all over the world over the years, and they have encountered a lot of thieves and horse bandits who are not long-sighted, and most of them were killed by him and Modu.

Just as Beihe was guarding the gate, suddenly from the depths of the main hall, there was a sound of fierce fighting.

Hearing this, Bei He immediately understood that Lu Hou had fought with the Forgotten Dust Dao Chief, so he hurriedly listened attentively. It seems that the intention is to rely on the ears to judge who wins and who loses.

But although he can't see with his eyes, Beihe still has confidence in Lu Hou.

There is nothing else, the so-called ranking on the list of this virtual realm is just the self-discussion of the people in the rivers and lakes, although there is a certain basis, in the final analysis, these people cannot be compared with the masters in the imperial court, let alone with a madman like Lu Hou who lives in a simple place and is only dedicated to cultivation.

Not only Fengguo, but also the ranking of the Void Realm List among other dynastic countries. As for the Qi Realm List and the Force Realm List under the Void Realm List, there is even more water, and the rankings are changing almost at any time, and there is no gold content.

Just as Beihe was listening intently, a strange scene appeared at this moment.

"Chirp...... Tweet ......"

The yellow bird that sang before, at this moment, flapped its wings and flew to the highest point of the main hall, flapping its wings and constantly screaming in a certain direction.

And the direction that this bird is looking at is the place where Lu Hou fought with the Forgotten Dust Dao Chief.

Just when Beihe felt a little strange about this scene, the sound of fighting from the inner hall suddenly disappeared, and the place became extremely quiet for a while.

After the yellow bird screamed a few times in the direction of the inner sanctum, it changed direction and flew down the mountain, turning into a black dot in a moment and disappearing from Beihe's sight.

After a few more moments, a slender figure appeared from the dimly lit hall. I saw Lu Hou holding a heavy sword in one hand and walking out of it.

After stepping out of the main hall, Beihe also saw that there was red blood dripping on the blade, not only that, this heavy sword with broken hair was covered with dozens of large and small gaps on the blade, and it seemed that it could no longer be used.

This heavy sword is made of a lot of precious metals, which can make this sword break to this extent, and it seems that the weapon used by the Forgotten Dust Dao Master is definitely not ordinary.

After Lu Hou walked out, Mo Du also stepped out.

In this Puyang view, there are only two Taoist masters and middle-aged Taoist priests and apprentices, and there is no one else.

This can be inferred from the fact that Lu Hou checked that there were only two beds here.

Lu Hou threw the heavy sword in his hand behind him, Mo Du hurriedly took it, wiped the bloody sword behind it, and put it back into the box.

At this time, Lu Hou had already turned his hands behind his back and left Puyang Temple.

When Mo Du carried the huge box on his shoulder, the two followed the former's footsteps,

At this time, Beihe showed a look of wanting to speak and stopping, just because the yellow bird just now made him feel a little strange.

But as soon as he thought that it was just a bird, he shook his head, this kind of thing should not bother Lu Hou, if it provokes the other party's displeasure, wouldn't he be bored with himself.

Now that the three of them are going to Liangcheng, Lu Hou will go to Chunxiang Pavilion to have a tryst with Miss Yanyin, in addition to finding this woman to inquire about the news of the next target, on the way back to Lanshan Sect, they will also go to find the big man who struck iron and take down the weapon of murder.

......

It was only two days before Lu Hou and the three of them left Puyang Temple, and a team of more than 20 iron horsemen rushed to the foot of the mountain.

This team of more than 20 iron horsemen, strong horses, excellent armor, in the position of the chest of the armor, there is also the mark of an eagle, this is a person from the Fengguo court, and belongs to the royal family.

The leader of them was a young man of twenty-five or sixteen years of age, who was extremely handsome.

The young man was dressed in a fine costume, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and a sword and jade pendant at his waist, and as soon as he came to the foot of the mountain, he immediately turned over and dismounted, and galloped along the path towards the top of the mountain.

Seeing this, more than 20 people behind him also dismounted and followed the young man all the way. For a while, the armor on everyone's bodies rubbed, and there was a sound of brushing.

The reason why everyone was nervous was because this young man was the seventh prince of Fengguo, and he couldn't make any mistakes, even if the other party hurt a little skin, they couldn't afford to pay the responsibility.

It didn't take long for everyone to come to Puyang Temple, when the Seven Princes stepped into the Taoist Temple and saw the corpse of the middle-aged Taoist priest on the stone statue, he suddenly "chuckled" in his heart.

Then he strode towards the inner sanctum.

It was only a moment after the Seventh Prince of Fengguo stepped into the inner hall that a roar of anger came from the person.

"No!"

More than twenty soldiers in armor rushed into the inner hall.

At this time, they saw that in the dim inner sanctum, an old Taoist priest who looked to be over the age of sixtieth birthday, his body lying on the ground reclining, and in his hand, he still held a golden three-foot thin sword. The dried blood flowed to the corner of the wall, solidifying black.

Now the Seventh Prince is kneeling in front of the corpse of this old Taoist priest, his fists clenched, his eyes full of tears, and he can feel the grief and indignation in his heart.

It wasn't until a long time later that the tears in the man's eyes gradually disappeared, turning into a cold that made people fall into an ice cellar.

"Quickly inform my father that my uncle had been assassinated. ”

"Subordinates obey!"

Hearing this, the leader of the soldiers immediately received the order, and then Huo Ran turned around and ran in the direction he came.

"Whoever you are, I'm going to cut you to death. ”

Just after the leader of the soldiers left, the Seven Princes gritted his teeth.
