Chapter 131: Heavy Snow is Coming
Three days later, in the evening, Li Xuandu and Liu Chen had already left the boundary of Longmen Mansion and came to the territory of Beiyang Mansion, and with the footsteps of the two of them, they were probably expected to reach Luzhou within ten years.
At this time, the sky had darkened, and Li Xuandu looked up, and at the limit of his eyesight, there was a black shadow that seemed to be a stockade.
Li Xuandu looked up at the sky again, the black clouds were rolling, and he saw that there was going to be a first snowfall, so he pointed to the black shadow and asked, "How about we settle here tonight?"
Liu Chen has been running in Zhongzhou for many years, and he is extremely familiar with the mountains and rivers here, so he just glanced at it and said: " It was a stockade, about twenty years ago, almost when the Golden Horde invaded Liangzhou and Qinzhou, Zhongzhou was also affected, the surrounding villages and towns had to build a village to protect themselves, a group of robbers sent Neiying to mix into this village, after gaining the trust of the people in the town, secretly opened the gate of the village on a stormy night, and a large group of robbers rushed into it, slaughtering the entire village, and now it is a dead place. ”
Li Xuandu's face was calm and said: "It's not an ancient battlefield place, even if there is a little bit of unjust souls, it shouldn't be a climate." ”
Liu Chen said expressionlessly: "Since the guest officer has already said so, then I have nothing to say." ”
When the two came to this village, the sky had completely darkened, and in the dimness, it could be vaguely seen that the buildings in the village were still well preserved, after all, it had only been twenty years, and the corpses had been disposed of, and even the slightly valuable doors and windows and furniture had been removed, leaving only a house with only a frame, and the windows and door openings were pitch black, like the facial features of a giant beast.
The gate of the stockade is made of logs, similar to the suspension bridge of the city, and a winch is installed on the gatehouse, and the winch is rotated when the suspension bridge needs to be retracted, and the winch drives the rope to let the suspension bridge rise and fall. The rope is connected to the suspension bridge by an iron ring fixed to the suspension bridge, and now the rope has been cut, so the suspension bridge gate has been lying flat on the ground for the past twenty years and has never been closed again.
The two of them walked through the open gate of the stockade and walked into the empty stockade, at this time the black clouds in the sky hung lower, seeing that there would inevitably be heavy snow tonight, even if it was a grandmaster of the True Realm, he could step on the snow without a trace, and there was no need to brave the snow to hurry, it was better to rest here for one night, recuperate the qi, so that the qi lost along the way would always be kept within the range that could be innocant.
Li Xuandu glanced up and glanced ahead, and there was a place similar to an ancestral hall not far away, although it was also a little dilapidated, but it was already one of the relatively well-preserved buildings in the entire village.
Without consulting Liu Chen, Li Xuandu walked straight to the ancestral hall, while Liu Chen followed him silently.
After entering the ancestral hall, it was empty, and the original tables and chairs had been removed, Li Xuandu untied the "cold beauty" wrapped in cloth around his waist, and slowly pulled out the knife out of the sheath, and the snow-white knife body was particularly dazzling in this dark night.
Liu Chen glanced at the long knife, and his face changed slightly.
If she is not mistaken, this knife should be from the "cold beauty" of the Tianle Sect, once the beloved saber of the ancestor of the Tianle Sect, and he refused to leave his body for a moment, this knife should have been treasured in the Tianle Sect, how could it fall into the hands of this person?
Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered a rumor she heard from the Ube Blue Bird not long ago, the reason why Bai Meiniang, the new sect leader of the Tianle Sect, was able to overthrow the previous sect master, Drunken Chunfeng, was because someone assisted him, not only did Drunken Chunfeng die because of him, but also Lu Yanbing of Qingluanwei was also repelled by him. Could it be that this person is the mysterious person who appeared in the rebellion of the Tianle Sect? That's why the Tianle Sect will give this sword away, if this is the case, then this person is also a master of the Nine Layers of the True Realm.
But these are just assumptions, maybe this person is just a disciple of the Tianle Sect, and it is possible that he was rewarded with this "cold beauty".
Thinking of this, Liu Chen secretly hated why he didn't pay attention to those rivers and lakes news on weekdays, if Chen Mao was here, he could deduce the origin of this person just from this "cold beauty".
At this moment, Li Xuandu pointed to a corner with the "cold beauty" in his hand: "Come out." ”
As the words fell, a white shadow floated out of the shadows, and it was a woman, with a long skirt reaching the ground, black hair like a waterfall, and skin as white as snow, but there was not much human breath on her body.
The woman looked at Li Xuandu who was holding the knife, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she stopped talking.
According to Liu Chen, this place has been abandoned for nearly 20 years, and there will never be a living person, even if there are people who are also passing by to rest here, they will never be left with half a cent of dust.
As for women like Su Yuncheng or palace officials, of course they can do it, but the rivers and lakes are very big, and there are very few Su Yuncheng and palace officials, so it is not so easy to meet.
Seeing that the woman didn't speak, Li Xuandu turned on the qi machine slightly, and immediately gave birth to a sharp edge on the blade.
The woman showed a look of fear when she landed, and she took several steps back, obviously afraid of the sword qi that Li Xuandu had born on the blade.
When it comes to the martial arts of the innate realm, the qi can also really hit the void, and the sword qi can also kill the ghosts, and the pure martial arts, just a huge body of blood and qi, can make the ghosts and gods easy to get rid of, and they can't get close to the slightest.
Li Xuandu is not a pure martial artist who rejects foreign objects extremely, and because of the "leakage", his blood and qi are not very vigorous, but this knife is enough to make the ghosts disappear.
However, Li Xuandu did not rush to the knife.
How heavy is life, how can you not think about it?
Killing people is not cutting leeks, leeks can still grow after cutting, but they can't grow after the head hits the ground, if you kill the wrong person, there is no room for remedy, so be cautious.
When Li Xuandu first saw Zhang Suqing, Zhang Suqing asked him: "In the rivers and lakes, have you ever been chased and killed?" Li Xuandu replied: "I was chased and killed." ”
Zhang Suqing asked the second time: "When people kill you, is it the right thing to kill, or is it the wrong kill?" Li Xuandu replied: "From the source, it was the wrong killing." ”
Zhang Suqing asked the third time: "So have you ever killed someone?" Li Xuandu replied calmly: "I have killed many people." ”
Zhang Suqing asked the fourth question: "Did you miss the kill?" Li Xuandu said: "I don't dare to say that I have never killed wrong, but if you want to say who it is, it is difficult to say, in the chaos of the war, there is no time to distinguish." ”
Zhang Suqing suddenly asked a serious fifth question: "Have you saved people?" Li Xuandu was stunned and replied: "I have saved people, but I haven't killed many people." ”
Zhang Suqing finally threw out his last question: "Did you save the wrong person?"
Li Xuandu replied: "If you save the missing person, you will take revenge, and then I will kill the person I saved." ”
These six questions go straight to the hearts of the people. In the face of these four questions, Li Xuan did not open his mouth, did not deliberately evade, did not care about him, did not lie and deceive, and answered with his heart, which made Zhang Suqing very satisfied. Later, Zhang Suqing once called Li Xuandu his old friend in public, which led to the friendship between the two of them as teachers and friends.
Later, Zhang Suqing asked Li Xuandu under what circumstances he killed who he killed by mistake, and how he dealt with the aftermath of those who were wrongly killed, and then said: "It is still necessary to keep people under the knife, do not kill those who can not kill, and kill less if they can kill less." ”
It can be said that Li Xuandu's mentor taught him how to kill, and Zhang Suqing taught him why to kill.
So today's Li Xuandu will pay attention to a think twice, this is the case outside the Tingfeng Building, the four of them are veterans at a glance, and they don't know how many lives they have on their hands, and the four of them died under Li Xuandu's hands, not wronged. However, that Taoist was fascinated for a while, and he took a detour, so Li Xuandu was willing to give him a way to live.
Of course, when it comes to life and death, Li Xuandu still makes a move when he should act.
Between life and death, one thought is enough, and there is no need to think twice.
Li Xuandu asked, "Who are you?"
Seeing that Li Xuan didn't mean to use the knife, the woman whispered: "I am a ghost who is bound here and cannot leave. ”
Li Xuandu suddenly frowned and said, "For the dead ghost?"
The woman smiled wryly: "That's probably it." ”
