Chapter 35: Cliff See

It seemed that a pair of giant hands suddenly appeared in the sky, pushing away the clouds and mist, and the originally foggy sky instantly became much clearer.

The sky is very clean after the rain, and the trees in the mountains are happy.

But those who are in it don't know that the sunlight passes through the clouds and comes to the mountains, and a rainbow falls from east to west, passing through the Taichuzong Mountain Gate Square.

Su Ci stood on top of the cliff, where the grass and trees flourished, but there was no grass on the cliff, such as a deer standing on his left side with some indignation, because he didn't catch Su Ci's hand.

Mo Huai stood on his right side, looking down excitedly, this place was some distance from the square, if it wasn't for the sudden sunny weather, he couldn't see the crowd in the square at all.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Su Ci, who was standing next to him, breathing calmly and smiling,

"Is he still proficient in divination?

Feeling Mo Huai's gaze, Su Ci was also a little puzzled, this guy has become strange since he stepped out of the door, as if he was planning something for him,

Could it be that you are afraid of running away?

However, along the way, he also roughly told him about the civil strife in the Taichu Sect.

Because Gu Xiantong wanted to compete with Ji Tianhe for the position of the sect master, and united Feng Yuqing to make trouble, as a result, Tian did not forget to sneak attack from behind, and everyone was seriously injured, fortunately, the lord of Nanshan came in time, otherwise there would be no scene in front of the mountain gate square now.

Su Ci looked at the woman in the middle of the square and asked, "Brother Mo, is the woman standing in the middle the Lord of Nanshan?"

At this time, in front of the Taichu Sect Mountain Gate Square, the crowd was divided into two factions, above was the Taichu Sect people, Ji Tianhe and a group of sect masters sat on a rectangular platform, everyone's face was very haggard, Ji Tianhe covered his chest with one hand, and blood was still coming out of it.

A man in Tsing Yi next to him was supporting him, and the people sitting on his left and right were Feng Yuqing and Gu Xiantong, who had fought with him in the Yuqing Hall before, and the two of them looked very bad.

Ji Tian and the Taichu Sect masters behind him were all sitting cross-legged on the ground, each of them looked like they had been injured, and a group of Taichu Sect disciples surrounded the left and right sides, their eyes falling on the four major factions and the Xilin people in front of them.

There are not many people from the four major factions, and they can't compare to the Taichu Sect together, but after all, they have already planned, and the masters of the Taichu Sect have no combat power, and a group of small soldiers and generals are difficult to stop the general trend.

The Shinto pillars around the square stand majestically, and as the sun shines, the ground is gradually dried, and the white marble paved square shines in the sunlight.

In the center, a woman in Chinese clothes stood with a sword in one hand, her rain-soaked clothes outlined her graceful figure, and a few blood flowers were dotted on her elegant jade face, adding a bit of anger, and a three-foot-six-inch long sword in her hand was blue all over, and dark red blood slowly flowed down from the blade of the sword, dripping onto the white stone bricks at her feet.

Her lips were like red plums, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and under her eyebrows, her eyes were full of cold light, like a sharp sword piercing people's hearts, staring at the man in front of her.

The short sword in the man's hand had sunk into her chest, and blood stained the placket red.

"Lord Yushan, you are defeated," the man said coldly.

On the cliff, Su Ci took in this scene, and Mo Huai next to him clenched the sword in his hand, eager to rush forward immediately.

Su Ci swept over the four major factions at a glance, many of whom were injured, and said lightly: "Lord Yushan alone is the enemy of the four factions, which is admirable." ”

Mo Huai listened to his words that were not light or serious, and he didn't know what he wanted to express.

Su Ci then asked, "Why don't you see the two mountain masters?"

The three elders and four masters of the Taichu Sect are also famous in the south, and the Nanshan lord on the square is one of the four masters, named Yu Sixue.

Mo Huai said: "The four factions have divided their troops to surround Dongqing Mountain and Xitong Mountain, and the two mountain lords are lacking in skills, but this morning there is news that the four major factions are besieging but not attacking, and they should be waiting for news from here." ”

Dongqing Mountain and Xitong Mountain are some distance away from the main gate of the Taichu Sect, and they have been jointly besieged by the four major factions long before Tian does not forget to attack.

Su Ci nodded and said, "Brother Mo thinks that the purpose of the four major factions is really to destroy the Taichu Sect?"

Mo Huai said in a deep voice: "Originally, I thought that they wanted to destroy the sect, but except for the Xuanmen Sect Master of Hengyun Mountain, the leaders of the other three major factions did not have the right to act arbitrarily. ”

Su Ci said: "Although it is difficult for Guizong to block the offensive of the four major factions now, but as the saying goes, a thin camel is bigger than a horse, if Guizong fights to the death, the four major factions will also be broken, it is unrealistic for them to completely annex Taichu, and Xilin will not let the four major factions divide Taichu." ”

Mo Huai thought for a moment and said, "Sir, you mean that the four major factions are not really here to ask for an explanation?"

Su Ci broke off a branch from a nearby pear tree and said, "Of course they want it, but what they really want is probably not this statement." ”

Mo Huai wondered, "Then what do they want?"

Su Zi raised his feet and stepped on the ground under his feet, squatted down and drew three hills on the ground with tree branches.

Mo Huai frowned slightly and said, "Sir's painting?"

Su Ci pointed to the hill in the middle and said: "This is the beginning of the Taichu, the two mountains before and after are Dongqing and Xitong, these two mountains are flourishing with grass and trees, and the minerals are extremely rich, but they are far away from the gate of Guizong Mountain. ”

When Mo Huai heard this, he vaguely understood the meaning of Su Zi, and his brows gradually expanded: "Sir, do you mean that they want these two mountains?"

Su Ci clapped his hands and threw the branches in his hands off the cliff, and said: "You said that they besieged but did not attack, and now the four major factions have also chosen this kind of fighting method here, taking turns to challenge the Lord of Nanshan, including Tian Bu Bu to do things within you, just to make Elder Ji and several other extremely threatening masters lose their combat effectiveness, and their intention is to disintegrate the top combat power of Taichu, so that they will naturally get the bargaining chips." ”

Mo Huai listened carefully to Su Ci's analysis, and a bone-piercing chill suddenly erupted in the body of the Nanshan Lord in the square, and the cold air swirled on the blue sword in his hand.

The dagger on his chest was instantly covered with ice, the man's pupils constricted, and when he was still proud of defeating this arrogant woman, his wrist had been invaded by ice.

The chill instantly rushed into his meridians, and when he was about to break his luck, he found that the internal force in his body had been solidified by the cold, and he was already unable to move.

"Uh.." There was a slight sound of consternation in his mouth, and then the whole person was covered in ice, and directly became an ice sculpture.

The corners of Nanshan's lips turned white, the blue sword in his hand detached, and a sword fell from the man's wrist, and the flesh and bones were instantly invaded by ice, and no blood flowed out.

At the same time, she raised her hand and grabbed her severed wrist, pulled the dagger from her chest, and threw it on the ground, and the hands and dagger were smashed into pieces of ice.

The air around him was also a little colder, and everyone who was watching was stunned, and a man who was about thirty-five or sixteen, slender and tall but not rude, hooked a smile of praise on the corner of his mouth, clapped his hands and applauded: "I heard the cold sky and blue fog of the Lord of Yushan for a long time, and when I saw it today, it was really extraordinary." ”

The surrounding chill was exhausted, and it was collected in the body, Yu Sixue collected the sword behind him, the tired color on his face was fleeting, and he said coldly: "How is it compared to Hengyun Mountain?"

When the man heard this, not only was he not angry, but his sword eyebrows softened a little, and he said with a smile: "The spirit map of your sect's mountains and seas has long been heard of in the world, why don't you show it to the Lord of Yushan, so that the gentlemen of my four major factions and Xilin have not come in vain." ”

The last few black clouds in the sky dispersed, the white clouds floated in the blue sky, and the sun became more and more intense.

Yu Sixue exuded a faint mist, and the ice sculpture in front of her began to vaporize.

Su Ci moved a stone and sat down, looking at the situation in the square with a leisurely face, but Rulu, who was still shallow in cultivation, couldn't see clearly and couldn't hear clearly, so he simply leaned on Su Ci's shoulder to bask in the sun.

Mo Huai stood on the side and looked at Su Ci a few times, very helpless.

"The Douzhuan Shenheng and the Mountains and Seas Spirit Diagram in their mouths are the six supreme treasures that are rumored to have been lost by the outside world, right?"

Mo Huai nodded and said: "That's right, in addition, what the Cicada Sect lost was the Nine Cicada Transformation, Qiongtai lost the Qiongyin music score, Tianjian Mountain lost the Qingyu Sword, one of the three swords, and Kurong Temple lost the Lenga Buddhist Sutra." ”

Su Ci said with a little emotion: "Sure enough, they are all treasures of the town faction, but although the mountain and sea spirit map of your Taichu Sect is precious, it seems that no one has cultivated it except for the founding ancestor of your Taichu Sect." ”

"Exactly," Mo Huai said with a sigh, "This is also one of the reasons why the four major factions are suspicious of us. ”

"Does that mean there are other reasons?"

Mo Huai said: "Xilin grasped this matter, and after the teacher came back from the 100,000 mountains in the southwest, he found that Xilin had secret exchanges with the rest of the factions. ”

Su Ci was silent for a moment, staring at the Xilin School at the back of the square, there were not many people from Xilin, only a dozen or so people, the man headed by him was dressed in Confucian clothes, with white jade hanging from his waist, obviously it was Zhai Yumen, the head of Xilin, and the young man in an ink-colored dress standing beside him,

His expression was gentle, extremely cordial, and his soft eyes looked at all kinds of people in the square with a light and elegant gaze, his aura was nothing special, very ordinary, but everyone knew that it was not ordinary.

He is the head of the Xilin Five Constants, Wen Junxue, a recognized gentleman.

The so-called five constants are benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith, and he possesses them all.

"I'd love to ask that guy what he thinks about this?" Su Ci looked at Wen Junxue from afar with interest.

Wen Junxue seemed to feel his gaze, but he didn't look over, the breeze lifted his dark hair, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his eye.

The sun fell into his bright eyes, and he said gently, "Here he comes." ”

Zhai Yumen, who was standing beside him, looked slightly stunned, then looked at the two people who were still arguing in the audience with a smile, stepped forward and said: "Whether it is the primordial mountain and sea spirit map, or the Hengyun Dou Zhuan Shenheng, they are all world-famous martial arts,"

His voice was raised, and he paused and continued: "In the past year, in the battle of Beiwang Mountain, the Yang Sect Master moved the mountain, and the head of Yu turned its momentum nine times, which amazed the entire land of Shenzhou.

At this point, he arched his hand at Yu Sixue and said: "I see that the Lord of Yushan retreated from Qiongtai alone, and defeated the Cicada Sect, and the elegance is fully displayed, everyone besieges the Lord of Yushan in turn, and it is inevitable that they will lose their demeanor, it is better to let the Lord of Huomen and the Lord of Yushan fight to settle the situation, so that my Xilin can also go down the mountain faster." ”
