Seventy-two water villages provide a lot of convenience for everyone's departure, whether it is to go to Jiangning County or to Wudang Mirror, they all leave Xijiang County by waterway and go to Shu first.

Although it is a long detour, it can also avoid the possible blockade of the Tushi Gang, and the speed of the waterway is relatively fast, so the overall time is not much different from the speed of the land route.

Although it took a lot of time, Jiang Yichen, the Ye brothers, the three disciples of Cardinal and Emei still arrived in Wudang smoothly.

When he came to the fork in the road, Jiang Yichen felt a lot, and it was from here that he began, and the road of the rivers and lakes showed ups and downs and sinister fangs, which caught him off guard.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm afraid Cardinal will have to say goodbye to everyone here and go back to the village to inform the village chief about Xijiang County. "The short distance from the three-way intersection to Wudang Mountain, thinking that it is unlikely that there will be any more obstacles, and the cardinal wants to say goodbye to everyone first.

"It doesn't matter, if Cardinal Woman needs it, my two brothers can also send one of them back to the village with you. ”

"Well, if the woman needs it, just as commanded. ”

Night Tide and Night Mountain spoke out one after another.

"It's only a few miles to Taiji Village, so there's no need to bother the two of you. Cardinal waved his hand and said, "If your trip to the Wudang Sect goes well, please move to the village as a guest, Cardinal will definitely be a good entertainer, if you need any help, you can come to the village to find me." ”

"It's done, after the matter is done, as long as the conditions allow, I will come to bother. "Night Tide holds his fists.

Cardinal's gaze moved to the side, only to see Jiang Yichen untie the sword on his back and want to return it to her, after all, the original owner of the purple jade dragon scale sword was from Taiji Village.

"Xiao Jiang, as I said before, Brother Dugu is quiet by nature, if there is any cold words before, please bear with me, Brother Dugu regards the sword as his life, he doesn't want to see his sword covered with dust, if the Purple Jade Dragon Scale Sword can be in the hands of an excellent swordsman, I think his spirit in the sky will also feel gratified. The cardinal spoke to stop Jiang Yichen's move.

It turned out that the owner of the purple jade dragon scale sword was named Dugu Jian, this person was as his name, he loved swords like an idiot, and on the way to Wudang, Jiang Yichen wanted to return the sword several times, but was rejected by Cardinal with the same argument.

"Good. Seeing that the cardinal still insisted, Jiang Yichen no longer shirked and took back the sword.

"Sister Cardinal......" Shui Yunling and Qin Xiangling dismounted and hugged the Cardinal with a crying voice.

Although Shui Ruyue is the senior sister of the two young little sisters, she is only two years older than the two, and she has not much more experience in the rivers and lakes.

Therefore, from getting out of trouble in the withered vine cave to going all the way to Wudang, it has always been the cardinal who has guided Shui Yunling and Qin Xiangling as a big sister to gradually sweep away the haze in their hearts, get out of the shadow in their hearts and let go of self-blame.

Cardinal dismounted, stroked the heads of the two little sisters and said: "If the people in the sect learn about the brutality of the Tushi Gang, they will not blame you, since you have survived, you should do a good job of fulfilling the task of your trip down the mountain, this is the best reward for those senior sisters and sisters who have died, in order to live up to the expectations of the sect." ”

"Yes. Shui Yunling and Qin Xiangling replied.

After saying goodbye to everyone one by one, the cardinal rode away first, and the remaining six people took the road to Wudang Mountain.

"What do you want?" Seeing his brother's sad face, Ye Chaoya said suspiciously, but he soon regretted it, because Ye Fengshan's answer was the last thing he wanted to hear.

"I don't think the trip to Wudang Mountain will be too smooth. Ye Fengshan pondered for a while and then continued his analysis, "With the footsteps of water like a mirror, if there is no accident, you should have already gone up to Wudang Mountain, but according to the information left by Shui Rujing and Brother Jiang before, and the relevant information we learned on the way here, the Wudang faction still has no action, so I am afraid that there will be some twists and turns on Wudang Mountain." ”

Along the way, Jiang Yichen retained the secrets of the Emei faction that Shui Rujing told him, and revealed some harmless details to the Ye brothers and others who were traveling with him, so on the way, everyone used their own means to find out the recent situation of the Wudang faction, but they still found nothing.

Syllable!

Ye Chaoya slapped himself, gritted his teeth and said fiercely at Ye Fengshan: "You stinky crow, there is no place for inspiration except for your mouth, don't say a word!"

"It's up to you to ask. "Ye Fengshan squinted at the night tide, drooping with a very reluctant face.

"You, okay, stinky crow, your brother wants you to shut up now. As soon as the words came out, Ye Chaoya realized that something was wrong, wasn't this scolding himself in disguise, so he immediately spat out and kept silent.

The group fell silent, and what the Ye brothers said was exactly what everyone was most worried about and the most unwilling to meet, and it was also a very likely situation at present.

"Sister doesn't know what's going on......" Shui Yunling said with her hands twisted.

"No matter what, Wudang is also a decent family, even if there is something difficult, it should not hurt his life. Jiang Yichen comforted.

"Yes, there are thousands of years of bonds between our two factions, and I don't think the masters of Wudang will be too difficult for us no matter what. "Shui Ruyue and Shui Rujing's appearance is seven points similar, but compared to her eldest sister, she is less cold and more close.

The Ye brothers looked at each other and smiled, as if they agreed with Jiang and Shui's statement, but they knew in their hearts that it was not for nothing that Wudang had fallen so much, and they were not optimistic about this trip, so they were determined to accompany the Emei people up the mountain.

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

In Wudang Mountain, in the Taihe Palace, there are several Taoist priests in gray robes who are discussing something with each other.

Sitting at the head of the main hall, Yuan Shen, the head of the Wudang faction, is undoubtedly the head of the Wudang faction, and the rest of the people are the major elders in power on Wudang Mountain, and of course they are also Yuan Shen's senior brothers and brothers.

has not yet reached the year of the Mandate of Heaven, Yuan Shen is already gray-haired, only a little green silk remains, plus the folds on his face are vertical and horizontal, and his cheekbones are high.

The sound of discussion in the main hall, no, can be said to be the voice of controversy gradually getting louder.

In the midst of the cacophony of gossip, Yuan Shen, who was supposed to be in charge of the overall situation, lost his mind.

Looking at the seven people in the main hall, some are bloated, some are yellow and thin, and some are just strong and middle-class, and they can be regarded as standing out from the crowd in this group.

Now, the entire Wudang is also controlled by eight people in the palace who are holding the lifeblood of the entire Wudang, is this the sorrow of the so-called famous family?

Yuan Shen sighed to himself in his heart, "Not to mention the situation when Wudang was in its heyday, just talking about the Wudang where Yuan Zhen was still in this position in the past, the sect can discharge at least three different groups of streamers and seven peerless formations, but now, the virtual character generation is still alive among the uncles and uncles, and the only Xuchen master can take charge alone, and the Xuhuai uncle and the Xuci master are already dying old and no longer have the courage of the past." The Yuan character generation is the current few people, only Yuan Qing's skills are similar to their own, Yuan Kui took charge of the kitchen and then abandoned the martial arts, and the body is even more bloated, the rest of Yuan Rui, Yuan Ling, Yuan Pei, Yuan Zhi, Yuan Dao are not hard-working, and their skills are probably less than seventy percent of themselves. In recent years, among the disciples of the Xuanzi generation, no one has been born, and most of the disciples are embarrassed and useful, and no matter how young the disciples of the Qingzi generation are, they can't count on it. ”

"When did my Great Wudang fall into such a situation, if not, why should I argue here because of the Emei faction's request for help. Is it really my fault? No...... These are the fault of the times, in the past, the foreign Yi committed a border injury to my Wudang vitality too much, and now the troubled times are coming, and my Wudang is not able to control the ups and downs, I have tried my best, it is not my sin......"

Yuan Shen's excessive silence also made the seven elders who were arguing about how to deal with the matter of Shui Rujing and the Emei faction slowly quieted down, thinking that the silence of their head was holding their breath, and then they would be as angry as before.

"How many days has that little girl been on the mountain?" Yuan Shen finally paid attention to the silence around him and said.

"Uh...... It's been seven or eight days. It was Yuan Kui who answered, and he couldn't help but be confused, wasn't it because time had passed for a long time that the head of the family called everyone to discuss this matter.

"Seven!" Yuan Shen heard that it had been so long, and he wanted to be angry, but suddenly felt that anger was useless, and immediately eliminated the anger that surged into his heart, "Oh, that's some time, I haven't been too embarrassed about the little girl in the past few days." ”

"According to your orders, it is only a confinement, and three meals a day are not left behind. Everyone noticed the difference of the real person in charge today, so Yuan Kui also replied cautiously.

"Okay, tell me what you think of what the girl said. Yuan Shen leaned back in the chair a little lazily, wrote his body, and held his head.

The seven of them were speechless for a while, whether today's head had lost his memory, or whether it was too empty to go to iQue, and he couldn't remember even a little bit about the right talent.

Fortunately, just when the seven of them didn't know where to start, the voices of outsiders in the palace relieved them.
