Volume 1 The Adventures of Young Men Chapter 172 In front of the Hall of Righteousness
The Taihe Sword Sect, as the only martial arts sect on Taihe Mountain, occupies almost a quarter of the land of Taihe Mountain. It's not that the scale of the Taihe Sword Sect's house building is huge, but almost all the land that can be cultivated on Taihe Mountain has been reclaimed into fertile land by the Taihe Sword Sect.
This has a lot to do with the teachings of the Taihe Sword Sect.
The Taihe Sword Sect encourages practice and hands-on. Therefore, from the sect master and elders to the doorman and the subordinates, they all need to go down to the fields to cultivate in person.
What's more, they even built two huts directly next to the fields they cultivated and lived here for a long time.
This is why there are terraced fields all over the mountains on Taihe Mountain today.
At this moment, in a field about two miles west of the Taihe Sword Sect, an old man wearing a linen cloth and combing the head of a Taoist priest was wielding the hoe in his hand neatly, and the posture was really skilled. If it weren't for the fact that this was Taihe Mountain, it is estimated that everyone would think that this old man was an ordinary old farmer.
Not far away, a little boy of about eleven or twelve years old was laboriously carrying a bucket of water to this side. But Xiao Daotong didn't notice that there were two figures not far behind him.
The old man's afterglow glanced at Xiao Daotong, his eyes looked at the two behind Xiao Daotong, and then he shook his head helplessly, and muttered to himself while hoeing the ground: "Old Dao has hid here, and the trouble is still continuous! It seems that it is difficult to cultivate the 'big dream and forget the work'......"
As the little Taoist boy's swaying figure approached, the old Taoist priest gently raised the hoe and rested his hands on the hoe for a while.
"Ren Qiu Dao Chang'an is good. ”
The abruptness of this voice frightened Xiao Daotong instinctively, and the hands that were originally holding the handle of the bucket were sent away at once.
Xiao Daotong's reaction was also extremely fast, and he knew that it was not good to loosen this time. However, he could react in his heart, but he couldn't keep up, so he could only watch the wooden barrel full of water fall.
At this moment, the old Taoist priest held the hoe tail in his right hand, and kicked forward lightly with his left foot, and the hoe that was originally standing swung out like a pendulum, and the hoe happened to be at the bottom of the barrel, and as the hoe swung back, the barrel also came with it.
As soon as the old Taoist priest lifted his right hand, the wooden barrel gently slid to the ground on the side, and not a drop of water spilled out!
"Good kung fu!"
There was another abrupt cheer, and Xiao Daotong turned around with an unkind face, wanting to see who had been scaring him.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned his face, he saw Liang Jingmo's ancient face, and the little Taoist priest was suddenly startled, and hurriedly bent down and bowed and saluted: "Elder Wanfu." ”
Liang Jingmo nodded, then waved his hand, motioning for Xiao Daotong to step aside.
Xiao Daotong knew that the elder and the old Taoist priest had something to say, so he retired with interest and prepared to leave.
At this moment, the abrupt voice sounded again.
"The bone is wonderful, but it is a good seedling for sword practice!"
Xiao Daotong found a smiling stranger standing next to Liang Jingmo.
Although he had doubts in his heart, the little Taoist priest did not stop and bowed down and left.
Seeing the little Taoist priest leaving, Liang Jingmo turned his gaze to the old Taoist priest who was still holding the hoe with both hands, and said, "Senior brother, this Ma Wei brother wants to see you." ”
When the old Taoist priest heard this, he turned his gaze to Ma Wei beside him.
"Daoist Ren Qiu, I have admired the name for a long time!" Ma Wei arched his hand at the old Taoist.
This old Taoist priest in sackcloth turned out to be the head of the Taihe Sword Sect, Ren Qiu.
Daoist Ren Qiu looked at Ma Wei, and immediately seemed to think of something, smiled, and said, "It turned out to be the world's second killer 'Moon Kill', who shocked the rivers and lakes." ”
In fact, for the old Jianghu who has been famous for a long time, he definitely doesn't like the word "killer". Especially in the eyes of famous and decent people, this kind of butcher who wantonly kills people in disregard of the morality of the rivers and lakes for the sake of remuneration is simply a public enemy of martial arts.
Therefore, when he heard that Daoist Ren Qiu mentioned his name, Ma Wei was also a little worried in his heart, for fear that the other party would disdain to help him.
So Ma Wei hurriedly bowed down and arched his hand: "What is the reason for the next nickname! I hurriedly came to visit the Taoist chief today, and I really have something important to ask for!"
"But it doesn't hurt to say that. Daoist Ren Qiu nodded, his expression was as usual, and there was no dissatisfaction.
"I want to know Bai Qifeng's whereabouts. Ma Wei arched his hand.
Bai Qifeng is the real name of the world's number one killer "Bai Tu".
Hearing the words "Bai Qifeng", Daoist Ren Qiu's expression changed slightly, and it took a long time before he slowly spoke: "The last time he came to the sect was three years ago. ”
Ma Wei couldn't help but be stunned, the words "three years ago" are too interesting, because Bai Qifeng disappeared three years ago.
"His whereabouts are not clear. Ren Qiu said: "If you are his friend, you should know his character." ”
Ma Wei couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this.
The reason why Bai Qifeng was able to become the number one killer in the world was not only because of his strong martial arts, but more importantly, because he was extremely cautious and cautious. If he doesn't want others to know his whereabouts, then no one in the world can find him!
Not even if it's Yu Jianjug!
Ma Wei was not surprised by Ren Qiu's answer. He had sworn that he would not find Bai Qifeng's traces by any means.
In fact, before asking Daoist Ren Qiu, he vaguely guessed that this would be the result, so he asked him directly, and he was not afraid of breaking the oath.
After thinking for a while, Ma Wei slowly spoke: "Does the Dao Chief know the reason for his disappearance?"
When Daoist Ren Qiu heard this, he glanced at Ma Wei deeply, and then said: "Old Dao is a cultivator, so don't ask." ”
Ma Wei was stunned, and immediately understood what Ren Qiu Dao Chang meant.
Cultivators do not speak.
The other party really knew the reason for Bai Qifeng's disappearance!
It's just that Bai Qifeng must have come to find Daoist Ren Qiu before he disappeared, and told the other party not to tell others the reason, and Daoist Ren Qiu must have agreed to Bai Qifeng's request. That's where the conversation comes in.
After thinking about the cause and effect, Ma Wei arched his hand at Daoist Ren Qiu and said, "Thank you Daoist for informing me." ”
Daoist Ren Qiu waved his hand and said, "There is no need to be like this, Lao Dao didn't say anything." ”
Ma Wei thought about it, and finally asked the question he was most concerned about: "He ...... now?" Are you still alive?"
Daoist Ren Qiu was a little surprised when he heard this, but then he smiled and said, "It turns out that you are worried about his life and death. Peace of mind is. ”
The simple four words made Ma Wei's hanging heart completely relaxed, and there was finally a smile on his face.
There is a small square in front of the Taihe Sword Sect's "Righteous Qi Palace", and at this moment, there are already eight small rings on the square, and the outside of the ring is already crowded with people.
At this time, a group of five people walked out of the "Righteous Qi Palace", and everyone's eyes couldn't help but look over.
Walking in front and dressed in white was Su Jingxuan, whom Shen Qi had seen in Yun Keju.
At this moment, Su Jingxuan was dressed in a white power suit, her hair was combed into a simple braid, and she was draped behind her, which seemed to be more heroic and extraordinary than before in Yun Keju.
The four people who followed Su Jingxuan were all wearing white power suits with the same standard as Su Jingxuan, all of them had extraordinary bearing, and they looked like young masters with extremely high kung fu. And the one who followed behind was Yu Chengan's sister Yu Caiwei.
"Heh, this is the inner disciple of the Taihe Sword Sect, right?
"You don't understand this, do you? Except for the two girls who followed behind, the others were all on the list of the last 'Youth Heroes'!"
"Didn't the 'Young Heroes Club' only record the top 20 in the end? Could it be that there were three people in the top 20 in the last session of the Taihe Sword Sect?"
"Haha, brother, you're wrong! It's not three, it's four!"
"Hiss-this inner disciple of the Taihe Sword Sect is so powerful!"
"No, after all, it's one of the 'Six Swords'!"
"Eh...... what is the 'Six Swords'?"
"Which horn are you coming from? Have you ever heard of the mantra of the sect forces? It is the 'six swords' in 'One Day, Two Sects, Three Saints, Four Alliances, Five Factions, Six Swords, and Seven Masters'!"
"It turns out that the Taihe Sword Sect is one of the 'Six Swords'! No wonder the inner disciples are so powerful!"
......
Hearing the surrounding discussions, Shen Qi couldn't help but glance at several inner disciples of the Taihe Sword Sect a few more times, and his expression was a little surprised.
"Jiu'er, do you know all of them?" Shen Qi asked in a low voice.
Jiu'er glanced at Shen Qi and said slowly: "Senior sister Su Jingxuan, the sixth in the last session. Four years ago, it was already the 'Great Perfection of the Enlightened Mind', and it is estimated that it has already entered the 'Three-in-One Realm'. The tall and thin man next to him is the second senior brother Cheng You, the thirteenth in the last session. The one on the left with a smile on his face is the third senior brother Luo Chengren, the sixteenth of the last session. Cheng You and Luo Chengren's cultivation realm four years ago was both 'Ming Mind Intermediate Level'. The two women in the back, one is Yu Caiwei, you know. The other has not been seen. ”
Shen Qi nodded, but then said with some doubts: "That's not right!" the man just said...... In the last 'Young Heroes Association', the Taihe Sword Sect had four inner disciples on the list, but weren't there only three?"
Jiu'er raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "You have already seen the last one." I also learned swordsmanship from others for two days and two nights!"
"Huh? yes...... Brother Zhang!" Shen Qi couldn't help but be taken aback, and said, "Brother Zhang is also a disciple of the inner sect of the Taihe Sword Sect?"
Jiu'er couldn't help but glance at Shen Qi and said, "Zhang Ze called Su Jingxuan a senior sister, what do you say?"
"Oh, I see!" Shen Qi nodded and said, "What was Brother Zhang's last ranking?"
"Twelve. Jiu'er said.
"Talent...... It's only the twelfth ......" Shen Qi couldn't help but look bitter.
I faced Zhang Ze at the beginning, but I lost both battles! But I never expected that such a powerful Zhang Ze would only be the twelfth!
How strong are the eleven people in front of them?
As soon as he thought of this, Shen Qi's mood was a little bad.
Jiu'er seemed to know Shen Qi's thoughts, so she said in a low voice: "The last 'Young Heroes Meeting' was a bit special. Although Zhang Ze is only ranked twelfth, according to his strength, he can at least enter the top three. ”
Shen Qi thought about it, then frowned and said, "What do you mean? The last 'Youth Heroes Meeting'...... Isn't it strength?"
"It's not just strength. Jiu'er said with a smile: "Because hundreds of young masters come to participate in each 'Youth Heroes Meeting', so the previous 'Youth Heroes Meeting' will arrange three competitions to finally determine the ranking. But the problem often lies in the first game. Because there were so many people participating, the first game must be the one with the largest number of eliminations. And the first competition of the last session was mountaineering. ”
"What, mountaineering?" Shen Qi was stunned.
Master...... What does it have to do with mountaineering?
