Ying Wuji's expression was a little elusive, and he said, "The monk also told the king the secret. This "Great Xuan Shen Scroll" is an elusive thing, and the twenty-two kinds of martial arts in it are all collected by the wizards of the Western Regions after a lifetime of painstaking efforts, and the legend is that they are peerless martial arts handed down from ancient times. Because the person who wrote the book mixed his own blood in the ink, the book has a bit of murder, resentment and evil. When the book was written, the person who wrote it vomited blood and died. There is also a legend that the book is not burned in the fire, it does not rot in the water, it cannot be destroyed, and it is scattered and hidden in the folk of the Western Regions. ”

"Is there such an evil thing in the world?" Qing Xuanyi looked incredulous.

Ying Wujian continued: "What's even more evil is that the martial arts recorded in it are extremely fierce and powerful, but if you only practice one of them, you can sweep the rivers and lakes when you reach the peak. Therefore, even if the book is very evil, there are already many people who want to get it and want to dominate the martial arts of the Western Regions. ”

Qing Xuanyi asked: "The Western Regions have long had the intention of entering the Central Plains, and since the Western Regions have such strange books, there must be people who have practiced it, so why don't they come to the Central Plains to compete." However, my subordinates heard that the martial arts in the Western Regions had suffered a catastrophe, and their vitality was greatly damaged, and they have not been able to recover until today, is it ......?"

"Yes, it's related to the "Great Xuan Shen Scroll". Ying Wujian nodded, "This book has been in the Western Regions for many years, and every time it is born, it will definitely cause chaos in the world and set off a bloody storm." There are also some people in the Western Regions Martial Arts who got this book by chance and learned one and a half of the tricks and became famous. But their fate was terrible. Legend has it that as long as one learns the martial arts, the day the martial arts are practiced will be the time when the martial arts practitioner dies! The martial arts recorded in the "Great Xuanshen Scroll" are indeed extremely subtle and unparalleled in the world, but once they are learned, they are like Gu worms eating bones, and it is difficult to give up, and in the end, the meridians are retrograde, and the qi and blood burst and die. ”

Ying Wujian said easily, but Qing Xuanqi had already been shocked and sweated, he had also been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for many years, and he had never heard of such a terrifying martial arts: "That...... The prince will ...... this book I gave it to You Jinwen ......"

"Hmph, You Jinwen, ambitious and extremely desired, in order to become the master of the sect, he did not hesitate to kill the master who raised him like a mountain. Sooner or later, he will betray this king like his master. Chu Yunshan deserves to die, and he deserves to die. However, at present, he still has some use value, a leaf red is always on the edge of the king's grasp, and the king is worried that one day he will shake out the things of the year, so it is better to get rid of it as soon as possible. ”

Qing Xuanqi said: "My subordinates are willing to remove a leaf of red for the prince and eradicate the big trouble for the prince!"

Ying Wujian glanced at him and said disdainfully: "Just by you, how is your martial arts better than that Ye Hong?"

"This ......" Qing Xuanqi hesitated when he heard this, "The martial arts of his subordinates are indeed not as good as Yiye Hong, but as long as the prince gives the order, the subordinates are willing to go up the sword mountain and the sea of fire for the prince, and they will never give up!"

Ying Wujian patted the dragon chair lightly and slowly stood up, looked down at Qing Xuanyi, and said expressionlessly: "Okay, okay, this king still has something to tell you." Yiye Hong's matter will be handed over to You Jinwen to do. You give this book to You Jinwen, and tell him to remove a leaf red after learning the martial arts, but don't hurt Dao Xueke. If he really learned the martial arts of the Supreme Great Xuanshen Scroll, let alone Yiye Hong, it would be Qin Wucao, and he would not be his opponent. And when he killed Ye Hong, he himself died soon. ”

Qing Xuanyi was overjoyed when he heard this, and then said to him: "The prince's clever plan, killing two birds with one stone, and removing the two thorns in the flesh in the eyes at once, is really wise!"

Ying Wujian waved his right hand and said sharply: "Don't do it yet!"

Qing Qiqi answered the order, turned around and walked out of the main hall.

Let's say that You Jinwen has locked himself in the practice room since that night and does not let people approach, and only arranges disciples to take turns guarding him day and night outside the surrounding twenty zhang. Externally, he claims to be in retreat, seeking a way to break through the bottleneck. And Chu Qing'an has been locked in her room for a long time, and she has already recovered from her grief, she thinks about it carefully, You Jinwen's behavior and speech after returning from Tanglin Mansion have always been very abnormal, and Chu Yunshan's death is also full of suspicions, so she wants to investigate. But now the Yiye Sword Sect is all You Jinwen's henchmen, and even her boudoir is guarded by disciples day and night, and those servants who serve her take good care of her on the surface, but it is difficult to guarantee that she is not sent by You Jinwen to spy on her.

Chu Qing'an, who was blinded by hatred and resentment some time ago, has now calmed down and regained his former cleverness. Chu Qing'an sensed that You Jinwen must have something to hide from her, but if she asked directly, she would definitely not be able to ask anything, and she would startle the snake, so she could only check it herself.

The knock on the door rang punctually, and a beautiful voice came from outside the door: "Madam, it's time to wash." ”

"Good. Chu Qing'an pretended to agree, but he dodged and hid behind the bed, and said loudly: "Come in!" The door was pushed open by the maid, and the little maid walked in with a copper basin of water and closed the door again. turned his head to look, but he couldn't find Chu Qing'an. Then he put the basin on the table and looked for it: "Madame, ma'am?"

Chu Qing'an hid behind the bed, took off the pearl on his head, tore off the pearl on it, held it in his hand, and saw the maid gradually walking in, so he threw out the pearl hidden in the palm of his hand, and hit the front top point of the maid, telling her to fall asleep. The maid immediately fell to the ground, and Chu Qing'an carried her to the bed, sighed softly and said, "I'm sorry, there are some things I have to figure out!"

After saying that, he turned around and came to the back of the door, faintly heard the movement outside the door, and knew that there were guards outside the door, Chu Qing'an returned to the bedside, exchanged clothes with the maid, and ran back to the door, pinched his throat and imitated the tone of the little maid and said: "Come on, Madame has fainted, come on!"

Chu Qing'an closed the door again and hurriedly left the place. Hesitated all the way and didn't dare to raise her head, she could only walk with her head down by feeling, and after walking for a while, she saw that there was almost no one around, so she quietly raised her head. Seeing that there was no one here, there were quite a few disciples in the distance. Chu Qing'an looked at the surrounding buildings and thought, "I have rarely been here before, but I vaguely remember that there is a practice room here, which is extremely remote, but it is also quiet, so my father liked to practice here before his death." But since my father left, there has been no one here, why are there so many guards now? Could it be Senior Brother?"

She came up with an idea, grabbed a handful of soil in the garden, wiped it on her cheek, and ran between the guards with her head down. When the guard disciple saw someone rushing over, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, and asked in a loud voice, "What are you doing here!" The sect master is in retreat, and he is practicing a lot of exercises, so you can't trespass!"

Chu Qing'an pinched his throat and cried slightly, pretending to be anxious and bowed his head and said: "Dao Xueke, Dao Xueke, he has killed many disciples, and the disciples in front of the main hall can't stop him, so they are going to kill here!

The disciple thought for a while, and remembered that You Jinwen had specially instructed before his retreat that he must ensure the tranquility of his retreat, especially to beware of the comeback of Dao Xueke, who didn't want to kill Dao Xueke again now, if he failed to stop him, the door master would definitely blame. The disciple then turned to the rest of the disciples and said, "Hurry up and follow me to the front hall to stop the sword snowman, quick!"

Everyone answered the order and went with him to the front hall to support.

Chu Qingxin snickered inwardly, and when he saw the disciples walking away, he slowly approached the practice room, squatted under the window, slowly poked his head out, and quietly looked at the situation in the practice room.

You Jinwen was the only one in the room, and he crossed his legs and sat on the stone bed without moving. And in front of him was a book spread out. You Jinwen's shape did not move, his intention moved first, his hands were slowly raised from his knees, as if he had the power of ten thousand jun, and an extremely strong and mysterious black cloud emerged from the palm, the black cloud wrapped around You Jinwen's arms, walked straight up, waved his arms, turned his wrist lightly, and the black cloud also moved with his arms, until the black cloud wrapped You Jinwen's whole person.

Seeing such an evil scene, Chu Qing'an saw it in his eyes, and was so shocked that he covered his mouth to prevent himself from making a sound.

And You Jinwen was obsessed with practicing, and he didn't find Chu Qing'an outside the window. The black clouds gradually dispersed, and You Jinwen's hands were slowly lowered, palms up, and the backs of his hands were pressed against his knees, breathing a long sigh of relief. You Jinwen slowly opened his eyes, and Chu Qingan hurriedly lowered his body.

"The internal power recorded in the "Supreme Great Xuanshen Scroll", the reincarnation of the infinite power, is really magical. I have just practiced the first weight, and I only feel that I am full of energy, my qi and blood are sufficient, and my internal strength has increased greatly, and it is really thaumaturgy in the Western Regions! When I am accomplished, I can kill Dao Xueke!" You Jinwen looked at his hands, changed them into fists, and couldn't help but sneer twice. Of course, he will follow Ying Wuji's order to kill Yiye Hong, but he will also kill Dao Xueke. He hates Dao Xueke to the core, and he will never let it go easily. And when he learns the internal power of the "Supreme Great Xuanshen Scroll" and the swordsmanship of the gods and ghosts of heaven and earth, he will no longer be afraid of the green and the unscrupulous, and he will no longer be afraid of the disease. At that time, he will not only be the master of the Yiye Sword Gate, but the true master of the rivers and lakes.

At this time, Chu Qing'an covered his mouth tightly with both hands, leaning against the window, the internal skills practiced by You Jinwen were by no means the martial arts of the Yiye Sword Sect, and they were full of evil nature, full of murderous aura. She couldn't believe that the senior brother who grew up with her had become like this now, as for You Jinwen to kill Dao Xueke, Chu Qing'an had already known, she believed that You Jinwen promised her that she would let Dao Xueke go, but with his temperament, he would never compromise like this.

And those disciples who went to support ran to the front hall, but there was no trace of Dao Xueke, and after inquiry, they realized that Dao Xueke did not appear at all, so they reacted and were deceived by the maid, and the disciples hurriedly returned to the outside of the practice room, but they did not find any trace of the maid. They were afraid of being blamed by You Jinwen, so they agreed to hide the matter.

It was already dawn, Dao Xueke and the others also woke up separately, and Liu Yuanjun took out the dry food in the luggage and distributed it to everyone. The bonfire had been extinguished, but it had given everyone a night of warmth. Except for Luo Baiyi, the others didn't sleep well. After breakfast, Dao Xueke proposed to divide into three teams, each looking for the traces left by the Qingxiqi back then.

"Coming down from Kexue Mountain Villa, if you want to get out of the snowfield, there are three avenues. We split into three teams, split up to search, and ended up rounding up the mountain. Whether you find it or not, be sure to come back before dark, or you risk getting lost in the snow. Dao Xueke said.

Liu Yuanjun added: "After ten years, even if the clues left are extremely small, please look carefully." Dao Xueke nodded, and said to Narao Mengli: "Xiaoli, you go with me." Rao Mengli was about to nod, but after thinking about it carefully, she still rejected Dao Xueke, and just said with a smile: "It's better for Senior Sister Liu to accompany Brother Xue, the two of you are more familiar with this place, so it's better to be together." Brother Luo is with Ren Gongzi, and I am with Sister Zhu, so that it is easy to communicate and find clues. ”

This is the first time that Dao Xueke has been rejected by Rao Mengli, although he doesn't know what Rao Mengli thinks, but he has to smile and fulfill her wish. Rao Mengli ran to Zhu Qingqiu's side, and there was a hint of vigilance in her smiling eyes. But Zhu Qingqiu said with a smile: "Sister Xiaoli is willing to go with the concubine, which is naturally the luck of the concubine." Although Luo Baiyi was a little reluctant to be with Ren Shanhuai, seeing that Dao Xueke and Rao Mengli had company, it was difficult to say it clearly, so he had to scratch his head and sigh.

When everything was arranged, everyone went their separate ways. Dao Xueke and Liu Yuanjun went north, Luo Baiyi and Ren Shanhuai went south, and Rao Mengli and Zhu Qingqiu went east. After being separated for a long time, Zhu Qingqiu suddenly asked, "Sister Xiaoli, why did you think of walking with your concubine?" Rao Mengli stopped, and Zhu Qingqiu turned back to look at her. I saw Rao Mengli staring at her eyes, and said slowly, "Sister Zhu is really helping Brother Xue?"

"What do you mean by that?" said Zhu Qingqiu with a smile.

Rao Mengli got straight to the point and said straightforwardly: "I heard the conversation between you and Ren Gongzi last night. ”

When Zhu Qingqiu heard this, the smile on his face was slightly stiff, and at this moment, it seemed that time had frozen, and the snow around him was also a little colder. After a long time, Zhu Qingqiu lowered his eyebrows and said lightly: "Then how do you want to expose all this to Dao Xueke?"

Rao Mengli shook her head, her expression was a little puzzled, or a little helpless, she slowly walked towards Zhu Qingqiu and said softly: "Sister Zhu, you have helped us many times, and we all trust you very much." If you hadn't said it yourself, I wouldn't have believed you had been sent to spy on us. I know, I know, maybe you have your own hardships, but if you dare to do anything bad to Brother Xue, I will definitely expose you, and I will definitely not let you go. ”

Zhu Qingqiu smiled slightly, turned around, the soft white veil fluttered in the wind and snow, Rao Mengli couldn't see Zhu Qingqiu's face clearly, and could only vaguely hear her say: "Thank you." ”

Rao Mengli continued: "Everything that happened last night and today, I won't mention half a word to Brother Xue. As long as I wish my sister and Ren Gongzi can work with us with one heart and one mind in the future, no longer do things for Ying Wuji, and don't do things that are not conducive to Brother Xue, Xiaoli, and you are the best sister Zhu. With that, Rao Mengli gently took Zhu Qingqiu's hand and showed a warm smile again.

Zhu Qingqiu turned around, looked at Rao Mengli's innocent smile, nodded, and said softly, "Thank you for your trust, Xiaoli." Rao Mengli only said when she agreed, and then said happily: "Then let's continue to look for clues." With that, he jumped ahead of him. And Zhu Qingqiu behind her was still standing in place, there was no trace of blood on her pale face, suddenly her eyebrows were locked, her face changed drastically, her jade hand pressed her chest tightly, the heart beat more and more violently, urging her heart, Zhu Qingqiu spit a mouthful of blood on the snow beside her.

Rao Mengli turned around and said, "Sister Zhu, let's go quickly!" Zhu Qingqiu hurriedly blocked the bloodstains, wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, adjusted his breath and said, "Okay." ”

The two of them were looking in this wind and snow, fortunately the snow was not very big this morning, Rao Mengli squinted his eyes, looking at the boundless pure white between the world and the earth, and his eyes couldn't help but be a little sour. Suddenly, I saw a dead tree swaying in the wind and snow in the distance, and there was a bit of blinding white under the dead tree. The white color is a little different from the surrounding snow, but it is also difficult to spot. Rao Mengli couldn't help but walk in the direction of the dead tree, and Zhu Qingqiu followed.

There were still a few zhang away, Rao Mengli had already seen it clearly, so he said to Zhu Qingqiu: "Sister Zhu! Look! There is a white bone there!" Zhu Qingqiu said: "In this icy and snowy land, in the snow, it is very easy to lose the road. It is not surprising that there are one or two white bone remains. ”

But Rao Mengli still insisted on going to check, and Zhu Qingqiu walked with her to the white bone. The two of them circled around the skeleton several times without finding anything unusual, and just as they were about to leave, a strong wind suddenly blew and broke the rickety dead tree at the waist. Rao Mengli and Zhu Qingqiu hurriedly turned around, seeing this sign, it was not just a coincidence but fate.

Rao Mengli looked at the skeleton carefully, and saw that the white bone's right hand was nowhere to be found, so he squatted down and took a closer look, the white bone's right hand was cut off from the wrist joint an inch, it seemed that he was not trapped in the wind and snow and died, but was killed, and the person who killed him, whether with a knife or a sword, was afraid that his martial arts would not be low.

"I wish you sister, come and see!" Rao Mengli pointed to Zhu Qingqiu the severed arm bone, and Zhu Qingqiu raised the skeleton's right hand and carefully examined the appearance of the broken place. I saw that the incision was very smooth and the edge was faintly red. This way of death is a bit familiar, Zhu Qingqiu's eyes closed slightly, and carefully recalled that night at the foot of the green python Panshan Guanshan, the night when she acted with Yiye Hong, the few Qing Python Panshan Guan disciples who died under the Yiye red knife, their wounds also had a faint red, which was no different from this skeleton.
