() Facing Meng Fantao's bewitchment, Pei Yuankai shook his head: "There are many masters of the Taiqing Sect, how can we snatch them? Besides, we are also immortal cultivators, and it is too immoral to snatch our own people's immortal swords." ”

Meng Fantao's eyes suddenly opened like a copper bell: "Brother Bei, you are a 'Thousand Hands Thief Saint'! The so-called 'morality' is nothing but a weapon used by the weak to deal with the strong when they are powerless to resist; in the face of absolute strength, all 'morality' is false, and in the face of absolute interests, all 'morality' is false!"

Bei Yuankai smiled "hehe": "What can you do if you grab the fairy sword? For me and other loose cultivators, it's not for the sake of successfully crossing the tribulation?"

"That's different, the more sword intent you comprehend, wouldn't the success rate of the tribulation be higher? It's funny to say, how could the 'Thousand Hands Thief Saint' Bei Yuankai, who has always valued treasures as his life, become so lacking in fighting spirit now?" Meng Fantao used the method of agitation. Thinking that it was just a piece of Nine Dragons Tengyun Pei at the beginning, Pei Yuankai had been thinking about it for a long time, so he still didn't give up.

Bei Yuankai shook his head and said, "After the cycle of life and death in the Shuzang Palace, I have already seen it. 'The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit, it is not advisable. You and I should be pure-hearted and open-minded, the sword is secondary, and the value is in the hearts of the people. This passage was originally an epigram left by the sword immortals on the wall of the Tianrui Pavilion of the Shuzang Palace, and later Bei Yuanguan told Bei Yuankai, and now he is quoted here.

Meng Fantao didn't know, he thought that this passage was thought up by Pei Yuankai himself. After being stunned for a moment, he said with a smile: "Heh, too, you can borrow Bei Yuanguan's Zhanlu Immortal Sword to comprehend the sword intent, of course you don't want other immortal swords." He knew in his heart that the lobbying had failed.

"I don't know if Brother Meng has anything else to do, if it's okay, I'm going to go to cultivate. Bei Yuankai politely ordered the eviction.

"No more. Farewell!" Meng Fantao bowed his hand slightly, the sword rose into the air, and quickly left, secretly saying in his heart: "I don't know what ** medicine Bei Yuanshu gave Bei Yuan, but his temperament has changed......"

Bei Yuankai looked at his back until he disappeared behind the mountain and sneered. Bei Yuanguan walked out of the wooden house and said with a smile: "Meng Fantao, this person, has always been unscrupulous, and he actually hit the abacus on my head. "It turned out that what Meng Fantao said just now, Bei Yuankai had already passed it to Bei Yuanguan word for word. Although Meng Fantao did not mention the matter of Zhan Lu Immortal Sword, he avoided Bei Yuanguan and only wooed Bei Yuankai, and his heart was clearly revealed.

Bei Yuan opened his eyes and closed his eyes: "Under the sanctimonious appearance, there is a sinister and cunning heart. But his reputation is higher than that of you and me. ”

"Fame is such a thing......" Bei Yuan closed his hand and shook his head slowly.

"The cultivation was interrupted by him, so I'll take you to see that cave. This is the first time that Bei Yuankai has mentioned this matter since he followed Bei Yuanshu to Xiaolin Valley.

"Good. Master's Day is approaching, so let's go and worship Master first, and get the map back by the way. "Bei Yuanshu proposed.

Bei Yuankai nodded.

The two of them immediately rose with their swords and flew towards the south. However, what Bei Yuan closed was not the Zhanlu Immortal Sword, but his original Immortal Sword. The peerless immortal sword that ranks second on the fairy sword spectrum, he is still reluctant to step on it.

......

A few days later, the two brothers returned to the place where they had practiced with their master. The house had been destroyed by Pei Yuan earlier, and it was a mess. Not far behind the ruins, there is a bluestone tomb, which is the tomb of the Pei brothers. It is worth mentioning that the Pei brothers have great respect for the master, but unfortunately, the master died of anger because of the repeated teachings of the two. The two brothers were not short of money, and spent a lot of money for the master to put in the soil for peace, the coffins were all high-grade wood that was not afraid of moisture and would not become moldy, and they did not use ordinary green bricks when building the tomb, but bought green stone, cut into blocks with fairy swords, and the two of them built it with their own hands. The tombstone that stood in front of the grave, which was nearly a foot high, was actually cut from a huge piece of blue stone.

The tombstone is engraved with the words "'Thousand Hands Thief Saint' Bei Yuankai 'Shadowless Thief God' Bei Yuan's Closed Mentor Fang Chongding's Tomb" and other handwritings. At first, there was only a name, and there were no two titles: 'Thousand Hands Thief Saint' and 'Shadowless Thief God', which were specially added by the Pei brothers after they became famous, in order to deter tomb robbers who did not know the height of the sky.

The two of them first bowed down to the Master's tombstone three times, bowed to the end each time, and then knelt together in front of the tomb and kowtowed nine times. This "three bows and nine knocks" is the highest etiquette on the Qinglong Continent, which is enough to show the two brothers' reverence for their master.

After saluting, the two went around to the back of the tomb. Bei Yuankai squatted down, touched one of the seventh row of bluestones from the top to the bottom, grabbed the gap on both sides with both hands, dragged it out, took it off, and then removed the three bluestones on both sides and below in turn, revealing a narrow hole. In fact, the tomb originally had three layers, the outermost layer was hard bluestone, the middle was a thick layer of soil, and the inside was a layer of bluestone, and then the tomb chamber was inside. At the beginning, after Pei Yuan finished opening the map, he hurried to the East China Sea Shuzang Palace, so he did not carefully fill in the two layers inside.

Bei Yuankai followed the entrance of the cave and drilled in, and after Pei Yuanguan bowed to the tomb again, he followed in.

The burial chamber is very spacious, except for a low platform in the middle, on which the Master's coffin is placed. In one corner of the burial chamber, there are several pieces of bluestone that have been removed from the inner layer. Everything is normal, it seems that there have been no tomb robbers in the past twelve years.

Bei Yuankai walked a few steps in front of the coffin and stood on his feet, stretched out his hand to stop Bei Yuanshu. He pulled out the fairy sword and slashed it at an inconspicuous pebble on the ground, and with a "snap", a red light flashed, and the pebble turned into ashes. Don't underestimate this small stone, it was the eye stone that Bei Yuankai had set up before leaving. Although the eye of the array is very inconspicuous, and the attacking array also tightly protects the range around the coffin, its power is comparable to a sword of Pei Yuankai's seven successful forces, which is very powerful. Immortal cultivators with superb cultivation will not come to rob tombs, even if they want to steal, they have to be afraid of the name of the Pei brothers, for a few little thieves who don't know the height of the sky, this small attack array is enough to make him die and can't die again.

After the attack was lifted, Bei Yuankai walked

Half squatted down in front of the coffin. This move startled Bei Yuanshu, and he hurriedly asked, "You shouldn't have hidden the map in Master's coffin, right?"

Pei Yuankai said angrily: "How can it! Pressed under the master's coffin!" According to folk customs, opening the coffin after burial will disturb the peace of the deceased, which is a great disrespect, and will inevitably be punished by heaven. Some tomb robbers are mercenary, and they will never let go of the items buried in the coffin, and this kind of person often does not live long, either encountering a flying disaster or suddenly dying of a violent illness.

Bei Yuankai lifted the coffin slightly with one hand, took out a piece of paper from underneath, and then gently put the coffin down.

"Let's go out and see. Bei Yuan opened the way.

After the two climbed out of the tomb, they rebuilt the bluestone brought out of the tomb, filled it with new soil, covered the outer layer, and restored the tomb to its original appearance.

After looking at the map for a long time, Bei Yuanguan muttered: "Feilong County, Tiangu Mountain......"

"Now that the dragon clan has turned against us, if we venture to go, we will definitely be known by the dragon clan, and we have to think of an expedient plan first. Bei Yuan opened the way.

Bei Yuanguan nodded, and his cheeks pondered. It is indeed a troublesome thing to hide from the dragons. Since it was not yet known what was going on with the strange exercises of the Dragon Clan, it was not certain how large the perception range of the nine brothers of the Dragon Clan was. Bei Yuanguan remembered that when he went to Hanzhou City in Youlong County, as soon as he flew over the city wall, Jairus transmitted a message to him.

"The dragon clan's perception range seems to be much larger than that of us immortal cultivators, and even the distance of sound transmission is farther than ours. Fortunately, Tiangu Mountain is in the southwest corner of Feilong County, far away from Hanzhou, where the dragon clan is located, maybe we will fly over against the Starwind Coast and will not be discovered by them. Bei Yuan closed his mind.

"How do you know that Hanzhou is where the dragons live?" asked Bei Yuankai rhetorically.

Bei Yuan was stunned for a moment, this is really negligent, the dragon clan made an appointment with him in Hanzhou, which does not mean that they live in Hanzhou. Suddenly, Bei Yuanguan remembered that when he first met Jair, Pu Prison and the negative three people at the bottom of Fuqin Lake, Jairus had said that they were from the "Dragon Hidden Palace". Bei Yuanguan hurriedly asked his brother: "Do you remember what the dragon clan said about the 'Dragon Hidden Palace'?"

Bei Yuankai frowned and thought for a moment, and finally remembered this word that had almost been forgotten: "Everyone was in shock at that time, and there were too many things that happened later, maybe no one noticed this word." Now that I think about it, this is where the dragons really live. But where is the 'Dragon Hidden Palace'?"

"Before I met the dragon brothers, I didn't know that demon beasts could also cultivate into human form. If the 'Dragon Hidden Palace' was easy to discover, then how could the Dragon Clan brothers cultivate to such a high level and no one would know?" What about knowing that the dragon clan is in the Dragon Hidden Palace?

"Forget it, it's useless to think too much. One thing is certain, the Dragon Hidden Palace is very secretive, at least not near the state capital. We first flew west along the Starwind Coast, and waited until we reached the height of Feilong County, Dake, and passed through the major state cities to reach Tiangu Mountain. Bei Yuan opened the way.

"That's all there is to it. Wait until night to go to Tiangu Mountain, and leave before dawn, there should be no problem. ”

So, the two of them continued to fly to the Starwind Sea in the southwest.

The Pei brothers traveled day and night, and after reaching the Starwind Sea, they turned westward and flew along the winding coast towards Wyvern County.

"Huh?" Bei Yuanshu suddenly stopped.

Pei Yuankai turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I vaguely felt a strange fluctuation just now, but now it is gone. Pei Yuan closed his eyes and looked at the sea. At this time, it was the middle of the night, the moon was shining, the breeze was gusting, and the waves that slowly hit the beach were full of white flowers. As far as the eye can see, only the vague outlines of a few small islands can be seen.

When Bei Yuankai heard Bei Yuanguan say this, he also looked around, but everywhere was quiet, and there was nothing unusual. "Are you too careful?" said Bei Yuan.

"I hope so. Bei Yuan closed his brows and frowned slightly, thinking in his heart: "There is obviously a trace of fluctuation, but it is not like a fluctuation of spiritual power, could it be ...... Dragon Clan?" Thinking of this, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, and he said to Bei Yuankai, "I know where the Dragon Yin Palace is!"

"Huh?" Bei Yuankai was a little inexplicable, I don't know why Pei Yuankai suddenly thought of this.

"Dragons are born in water, and the Dragon Hidden Palace must be at the bottom of the Starwind Sea!"

Bei Yuan said: "It is indeed very possible. But the sea of stars is so vast that it is still impossible to determine its exact location. ”

"Anyway, let's get out of here first. Bei Yuan closed the voice and said, "Keep an eye on your surroundings and be careful at all times." ”

Bei Yuankai didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Bei Yuan's closed gourd, but judging from his solemn expression, it was not safe here.

The two of them flew at a high speed, carefully observing their surroundings. After the two of them disappeared into the sky, a figure emerged from the sea, quickly skimming across the sand and into the woods on the shore.

After flying for an hour, Bei Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and slowed down: "It should be fine." ”

"What the hell is going on?" asked Bei Yuankai, puzzled.

Pei Yuan smiled smugly: "We have always been stuck with the dragon clan's nest in the three western counties, but in fact, it is not. The dragon clan's handsome demon beasts swept half of the Qinglong Continent from west to east, not because the dragon clan's lair was in the three western counties, but because the terrain in the western part of the continent was relatively flat, easy to attack and difficult to defend. I did feel a strange fluctuation just now, but it was definitely not a spiritual power fluctuation, what else could it be?"

"Dragons!"

"That's right. I think that the Dragon Hidden Palace must be in the depths of the sea just now. So we need to get out of there quickly so that we don't get targeted by the dragons. Bei Yuan closed his mind.

"Then our trip should go well. Bei Yuankai said happily. In addition to the dragon clan, the three western counties are nothing more than all kinds of demon beasts and fierce beasts, and it is easy for the two "big thieves" to hide their figures.

"To be on the safe side, don't fly along the coast, let's fly along the state towns and villages. "Bei Yuanguan remembered that when he went to Hanzhou to meet the dragon clan, there were no demon beasts in the state cities and villages along the way.

......

After a few days of zigzag flight, the two finally arrived at Tiangu Mountain.

Tiangu Mountain is the one closest to the Xingfeng Sea in a continuous hill in the southwest corner of Feilong County, and there is no land route to here, so the mountains are densely wooded, and the weather here is hot and humid, all kinds of vines are wrapped around the forest, dense, overgrown with weeds, and it is not easy to find a place to stay.

The Pei brothers controlled the fairy sword to fall on the top of the mountain and walked down the western slope. There were a lot of huge rocks hidden in the grass, some of which even came out of the cracks in the rocks, and looking at the map markings, the mysterious hole was not far ahead.

Trees, rattans, and weeds obscure the view, so it can only be estimated by distance. Bei Yuankai walked in front, and after brushing aside a tuft of grass, a light white boulder was revealed, and Bei Yuankai said happily: "This is it!"

He jumped off the boulder and pushed his shoulder against the side to remove it, revealing a dark hole. The entrance to the cave is small enough for only one person to crawl into. Bei Yuan got into it first, and Bei Yuan looked around first, and then took a few more looks at the boulder, and then entered the cave.

The entrance of the cave is narrow, the space in the cave is not small, the top of the deepest cave is two zhang high, there is a stone platform against the wall of the cave, and it is empty in addition. The cave was very dry, and Pei Yuankai took out a fire fold and lit a candle, and the cave suddenly brightened up a lot.

"Wow. Pei Yuankai raised the candle and illuminated the two lines of words on the cave wall: "Only those who are really three-yuan can get it." ”

Bei Yuanguan took a closer look: "This is not the master's handwriting, it seems that it was left by a certain ancestor." ”

"But there's nothing here, what does the 'of' of 'only be obtained' refer to?"

Bei Yuanshu did not answer, but leaned down to carefully observe the nearby ground and the stone platform. Bei Yuankai touched the cave wall inch by inch, hoping to find the mechanism.

After a long time, Bei Yuan straightened his waist, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said to Bei Yuan, who was still groping: "Don't look for it." ”

Bei Yuankai turned his head and looked at Bei Yuanshu in puzzlement.

Bei Yuanguan shook his head slightly: "The thing has already been taken away." ”

Pei Yuankai was taken aback: "How do you know?"

Pei Yuan closed his finger and pointed upward.

Looking in the direction, there were actually two sword marks on the rock at the top of the cave. Bei Yuankai was stunned: "I didn't expect there to be sword marks there, I didn't even find it!"

"I also saw it by accident. In short, there must have been a fight here, and the reason why there are no sword marks elsewhere is that I think someone deliberately scraped them off. "The boulder at the entrance of the cave is also a little strange, the top is relatively flat, and the slight roughness is estimated to be the result of years of weathering, so I feel that the boulder has been cut with a sword." ”

"Could it be that the person who dug this hole cut it?" asked Pei Yuankai.

Bei Yuanshu denied: "It shouldn't be." The purpose of the boulder is only to block the entrance of the cave, and it is not more natural to leave it as it is?"

Bei Yuankai nodded, and said a little unwillingly: "Someone actually took away the treasure left by the ancestor to my descendants, it's so hateful, it's a pity that you and I are both about to cross the catastrophe, and we don't have time to investigate this matter thoroughly." ”

Bei Yuanguan smiled and patted Bei Yuankai's shoulder: "Forget it." How can we thoroughly investigate what happened many years ago? Besides, if our lineage is passed on to our two generations, even if it is the end, what is the use of getting the treasure? These words are very vicissitudes. The Pei brothers have a bad reputation for the word "theft", and no one has ever taken the initiative to ask to worship them. The two have been fighting each other for many years, refusing to give in to each other, and even when they meet occasionally, they hope that their cultivation realm can be better than each other. Now that the brothers are back in harmony, the catastrophe is imminent, but they suddenly find that they don't even have an apprentice who inherits the mantle of their own lineage, which is a pity for such a wonderful body as "One Qi and Three Yuan".

Pei Yuankai let out a long sigh: "Alas...... Let's go. ”

The two of them looked melancholy and got out of the cave, only to find two figures standing outside, one of whom said, "You two, why did you sneak into my dragon clan's territory?"

When I looked closely, the person standing in front of me was dressed in gold, with a dragon jewelry on his right shoulder, and a golden forehead crown on his head, and the gems in the forehead were emitting a brilliant green light. The man in the back was also dressed in gold, with long white hair tied up and a silver-white mask on his face. It turned out to be the third elder of the dragon clan, and the fourth Pu Lao.

The two brothers were surprised, and Bei Yuanshu asked, "How do you know that we are here?"

Pu Lao sneered: "Ever since you entered the confines of Feilong County, we have known about it. How do you know about this cave?" his voice through the mask was illusory and low, real and ethereal.

Bei Yuan was happy: "Could it be that you took the things in the cave? That is what the master left to my disciples in the future, you ......"

Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Mockery: "We didn't take the contents of the cave, it has been like this since we found it." He paused slightly, and then said, "Although my dragon clan has an agreement with immortal cultivators not to fight for five years, it doesn't mean that you can enter the territory of the dragon clan at will. I'll let you go this time, and I won't be merciful next time!"

The tone of the mocking wind was both cold and blunt, which provoked Pei Yuan to be angry: "Joke! When did the three counties in the western part of the Qinglong Continent become the territory of your dragon clan? You are just temporarily occupied, the sky and the earth are big, I can go wherever I want, what do you have to do with you!"

Mocking Wind didn't say much, and with a horizontal hand, the golden dragon shattering spear appeared in his hand.

Pu Lao behind him also raised the Qiu Long Xiaohai Bell: "What, do you want to fight?"

Bei Yuankai was about to step forward, but Bei Yuanguan stopped him and said: "Don't act rashly, I'm afraid you and I are not the opponents of the two of them!"

Bei Yuankai had no choice but to clench his fists hatefully, holding back the anger in his heart: "Let's go!"

Bei Yuanguan glanced at Mock Wind and Pu Jiao coldly, and left with Bei Yuankai.

Mocking Wind and Pu Lao put away their blades, their bodies flashed, turned into two golden lights, and disappeared into the night.
