Luo Baiyi didn't dodge, he simply lay down in front of the mountain gate, posing like a scoundrel, and then secretly recovered his internal strength and said: "Whether it's true or false, there is the truth." If I don't let me see her, I will sleep in front of your mountain gate and never leave again! ”

That disciple had never seen such a brazen person, he couldn't really kill Luo Baiyi, spread it, everyone said that the disciples of the Western Sword Sect killed innocents indiscriminately, after all, they regarded themselves as famous and decent, and they still had to take care of some face. The disciple was entangled for a while, put away his long sword, and said with a disgusted face: "Okay, okay, I'll report it for you! What a scoundrel!"

Luo Baiyi didn't care, as long as he could bring in the rescuers, even if he knelt down and kowtowed. Seeing that the disciple was walking away, he turned over and sat up straight, meditating and pranayama.

The disciples of the Mountain Gate came to the main hall of the Western Sword Sect Silver Moon Villa, which was the place where the head of the sect and the Dharma Protector Elder discussed on weekdays, and it was called the Asking Sang Temple. The disciple stepped forward and bowed: "Report to the master, there is a person from the rivers and lakes outside the mountain gate who claims to be called Luo Baiyi, and he has something important to ask to see the master." He also said that he traveled 80 miles overnight from the Qianyun Mansion to meet the master, and if the head did not allow it, he would stay outside the mountain gate and not leave. ”

"Ridiculous! I am a master of the Western Sword Sect, a powerful swordsman, how can anyone else act recklessly here? You go and bring more disciples to drive that scoundrel out of the mountain gate. Lu Zhuangyu, one of the two great Dharma Protector Elders of the Western Sword Sect, said, this person is immortal, thin and old, about sixty years old.

The disciple was about to take the order to retreat, and Lin Ruxue, who was sitting in the first seat of the Ask Sang Palace, stopped: "Wait!" Look at that Lin Ruxue, who will be over forty years old, but she is still beautiful and extraordinary, only in her early twenties from her appearance, she is a famous beauty in the rivers and lakes, but as a woman, she can become the head of the Western Sword School, and her martial arts naturally need not be said. Moreover, the age of a person who practices martial arts is not easy to judge from his appearance.

That Lin Ruxue was dressed in purple, and her skin was fair. Holding Sang Yue Sword, one of the top ten famous swords in the rivers and lakes, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a heroic face, and green silk tied into a bun and coiled behind his head. Mature and dignified.

"What do you command?" the disciple bowed again.

Lin Ruxue asked with interest: "What kind of person did you say look like, and how old was he?" Although the disciple was confused, he still replied truthfully: "That person claims to be called Luo Baiyi, wearing a white suit, covered in dust, and about twenty years old. ”

That Lu Zhuangyu has always been dissatisfied with Lin Ruxue as the head, and he should be the successor to the head of the family in terms of seniority, so he despises Lin Ruxue as a woman in his heart, and often makes things difficult for excuses. Seeing this situation, he asked in a strange way: "What does the head of the door ask a scoundrel to do? If everyone says that they have something important to see, then don't you, the head of the house, die of exhaustion?"

Lin Ruxue was sarcastically surprised, but she didn't get angry, she just smiled and said, "Thank you Elder Lu for your concern, it's just that this matter is different from ordinary trivial matters." That scoundrel, who was about 20 years old, was able to travel 82 miles in one night? With such a great feat at such a young age, it seems that this man is not an ordinary scoundrel. We deserve to see each other. ”

"Hmph, he said that he came here is the one who came here? If you believe the words of others in such vain, sooner or later you will get into trouble and harm the sect!" Lu Zhuangyu said with a disdainful snort.

And Yan Ruxi, another Dharma Protector Elder sitting on the other side, finally spoke up and said, "Okay, okay, the two of you are going to fight again." For the sake of an outsider, why should you hurt your own harmony?" This Elder Yan Ruxi was originally Lin Ruxue's senior brother, born with a kind face and loved to be a peacemaker. He is always smiling and humble to anyone, he is nearly fifty years old, not fat or thin, and ordinary in appearance. But it was he who mediated over the years, so as not to tear Lin Ruxue and Lu Zhuangyu apart.

Yan Ruxi said with a smile: "But what the head said is indeed reasonable, I have already heard of this." This Luo Baiyi is only twenty years old, but he is extremely light, nicknamed the leopard in the clouds, and was originally the righteous son of Xiao Wuxian of the Ten Ghost Hall. Previously, it was rumored that Xiao Wuxian was dead, and the Ten Ghost Hall was disbanded, but I don't know how he could appear in my Silver Moon Villa now. ”

"Ten Ghost Hall, then it should be caught and handed over to a leaf sword gate!" Lu Zhuangyu also had a lot of complaints about Yan Ruxi, who loved and sludge, and when he heard the words, he was even more angry, and there was fire in his eyes, "The Ten Ghost Hall has done many evils, and everyone in the rivers and lakes will be punished." What's more, the Ten Ghost Halls, who had teamed up to kill the master of the Chu Yunshan Sect of the One Leaf Sword Sect, was really innocent! Now that he has sent it to the door, how can he let it go?"

Lin Ruxue said disapprovingly: "Chu Yunshan's death, there are many rumors on the rivers and lakes, and the truth is still unclear, how can we make inferences in vain, and hastily conclude that it was the work of the Ten Ghost Hall? With that, he raised his hand and motioned for the disciple to summon Luo Baiyi to the hall.

When the disciple returned to the mountain gate, Luo Baiyi had also finished breathing, stood up, and waited respectfully at the mountain gate. It seems that he has also changed, no longer reckless and arbitrary in everything, and has learned to be sophisticated. The disciple also changed his previous arrogance and said humbly: "The head of the sect is invited." There was a bit of fear flashing in his eyes, it turned out that the disciple had heard some rumors of fellow martial artists, but he said that the Ten Ghost Halls were all murderous demons, and they were ruthless, and they were by no means Luo Baiyi's opponents.

And Luo Baiyi didn't care, so he followed the disciple into the Wensang Palace, the disciple retreated, Luo Baiyi lifted the hem, knelt down respectfully and said: "Junior Luo Baiyi to meet Master Lin!"

"Get up. Lin Ruxue smiled and said softly.

Luo Baiyi stood up, his upright posture was in the eyes of everyone, and Lin Ruxue couldn't help but admire: "The so-called hero is a young man, what a leopard in the clouds who traveled eighty miles in one night." It was an eye-opener. Luo Baiyi bent down again, and said humbly: "Thank you for the praise of the seniors, how can the younger generations be called heroes, it's just that the legs and feet are faster." ”

"I don't know why Luo Shaoxia came to my Silver Moon Villa today?" Yan Ruxi still looked at Luo Baiyi with a smile, and that too humble smile made Luo Baiyi goosebumps all over his body, a little creepy. Luo Baiyi coughed lightly, straightened his clothes slightly, and continued: "The juniors came this time to borrow troops from the Western Sword Sect. ”

"Borrowed soldiers?" shocked everyone as soon as these words came out.

"Not bad. Luo Baiyi was also a little embarrassed, knowing that such an abrupt borrowing of troops would be driven out by others as a madman, so he hurriedly revealed the matter, "The junior and a few friends were trapped in the city of Qianyunfu, for some reason, the imperial court suddenly ordered all the cities to be blocked, and the people were not allowed to enter and exit, but we had to go out of the city in an emergency, so the junior had to climb out of the city wall overnight and come to the rescue." ”

Lin Ruxue was also a little surprised when she heard this, and couldn't help but become serious, the corners of her mouth trembled: "What do you want us to do?" Luo Baiyi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, paused for a moment, and then said truthfully: "The juniors want to ask the seniors to use the power of the sect to pretend to attack the city and create chaos, so we will take the opportunity to escape." You don't have to really attack the city, you just need to bluff and create chaos!"

"Ridiculous!" Lin Ruxue and Yan Ruxi hadn't yet answered, but Lu Zhuangyu slapped the table and got up, knocking over all the tea on the table, and was furious, angrily scolding Luo Baiyi and said, "Okay, you are a remnant of the Ten Ghost Hall! After Xiao Wuxian died, I originally thought that you would stop and stop, and scatter as birds and beasts, but I didn't expect that you thieves would not change their hearts, and they would dare to go up the mountain alone to attack the city of Tilting Cloud Mansion, which is simply ridiculous!"

Luo Baiyi was originally prepared to be humiliated, and took that Lu Zhuangyu not only insulted the Ten Ghost Hall, but also insulted the dead Xiao Wuxian, Luo Baiyi couldn't bear it, green tendons burst out on his forehead, his body trembled, his hands clenched into fists, and his finger bones were already creaking.

And Lu Zhuangyu was still aggressive, and he refused to give up: "According to the old man, it is clear that your Ten Ghost Sect has already taken refuge in the imperial court! Now you want to trick me and others into going 80 miles to attack the impregnable city, so as to take the opportunity to exterminate our Western Sword Sect! Phew! It is obviously wishful thinking! The old man advises you to get out of the mountain gate quickly, otherwise when you are young, you will be taught to turn into a powerful ghost under the sword! How can a single Ten Ghost Hall make the Western Sword Sect take such a big risk!"

Luo Baiyi's anger had reached a critical point, but he still suppressed the anger in his heart, and said word by word: "Senior...... You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately. The younger generation respects you as a senior in the rivers and lakes, and can't bear to offend...... And the seniors said that the face of the Ten Ghost Halls is not enough, so I wonder if the face of these two sects is enough?"

After that, Luo Baiyi took out the red jade ring pendant of Wuqiu Palace and the wooden dragon pendant of Hanshan Taoist Temple in his sleeve, twisted it in his palm, and everyone exclaimed: "This is the red jade ring pendant of Wuqiu Palace and the wooden dragon pendant of Hanshan Taoist Temple!" Luo Baiyi sneered and said: "I don't know the face of Wuqiu Palace and Hanshan Taoist Temple, can I invite the Western Sword Sect." ”

Seeing this, Lu Zhuangyu was dumbfounded, and he was speechless for a while, so he had to snort coldly, brushed his sleeves back to the table and sat down, and said with disdain: "The dragons and snakes of the Ten Ghost Halls are mixed, maybe they sent some people who are used to walking on the beam to sneak into the Wuqiu Palace and the Cold Mountain Taoist Temple, steal the tokens of their sect, and come to deceive us." ”

Lin Ruxue and Yan Ruxi glanced at each other, although Lu Zhuangyu's words were as piercing as a sword, but they were also vigilant, after all, attacking a city with the ability of a sect, even if it was a fake attack, it would be more than lucky.

Just when Luo Baiyi couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to make a big fuss, a voice like a silver bell suddenly came from behind him: "Then I wonder if my token was also stolen by the Ten Ghost Hall?" Everyone followed the sound and saw a woman in green clothes walking up to the hall with a sword, Luo Baiyi was overjoyed in his heart, and thought: "It's finally here." ”

The woman who walked up to the main hall stepped forward, stopped beside Luo Baiyi, bowed and saluted: "The junior Yiye Sword Gate Chu Qing'an visited Master Lin. After that, he put the Folding Snow Sword in his hand in front of him, and said with a smile: "I don't know if I can persuade Master Lin with this Folding Snow Sword in the hands of the juniors and the face of the Yiye Sword Gate." ”

As soon as these words came out, they shocked everyone again. Chu Qing'an chased after a disciple in a panic behind him, ran into the hall in a hurry, knelt on the ground and said, "Please punish the master, Miss Chu wants to come in, but the disciple really can't stop her." ”

Lin Ruxue waved her hand and motioned for him to step back for the time being.

Lin, Yan, and Lu glanced at each other, all a little at a loss, and Lu Zhuangyu sneered ironically: "Everyone in the rivers and lakes knows that the eldest lady of Yiye Jianmen married her senior brother You Jinwen, and the two of them were in charge of the sect together, but later there was Mrs. You who did not abide by the women's way and eloped down the mountain to find the old love Daoxueke. And Chu Yunshan died at the hands of the Ten Ghost Hall, and now that Mrs. You is helping her father-killing enemy like this, isn't she afraid that the Lord of Chumen will die without turning a blind eye!"

"You ......" Chu Qing'an swallowed the second half of the curse back into her stomach, in the past, she had to drench the blood of this disrespectful old miscellaneous dog, but now it is unusual, and she has to swallow her anger.

Chu Qing'an breathed a long sigh of relief, calmed down, and explained: "My father did not die at the hands of the Ten Ghost Hall, but then he was assassinated by the traitor and blamed on the Ten Ghost Hall. ”

"Who is the real murderer?" Lu Zhuangyu's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a sly light in his two slit-like eyes, and he asked with a relaxed face.

"This ......" Chu Qing'an's eyes didn't know where to fall, he tightly grasped the hand of the Xue Sword, his fingers rubbed the scabbard uneasily, he lowered his head and muttered for a moment, he really couldn't think of a reason, so he had to say indiscriminately: "Who the murderer is, you will know in the future, but it has nothing to do with today's affairs." Today, the younger generation is asking for help from Master Lin on behalf of Yiye Jianmen. ”

Lu Zhuangyu and Yan Ruxi both looked at Lin Ruxue, after all, she was the leader, and it was up to her to decide whether to help or not. Lin Ruxue bowed her head and was silent, thought about it carefully, and sighed for a long time before she sighed and said: "It's not that I don't care about the face of my fellow Taoists in the rivers and lakes, and I don't give the face of Yiye Sword Gate, Wuqiu Palace, Hanshan Taoist Temple and Ten Ghost Hall, but with the strength of my sect, it is really difficult for the officers and soldiers of a city to resist." ”

"Moreover, the people of the rivers and lakes have never had anything to do with the imperial court, and now even if they pretend to attack the city, they will inevitably be regarded by the imperial court as a chaotic party against the imperial court, and they will definitely send troops to exterminate us.

What Lin Ruxue said was extremely reasonable, Chu Qing'an and Luo Baiyi were speechless, neither staying, nor leaving, they had no countermeasures for a while, and they were anxious.

Seeing that the two of them looked embarrassed, Yan Ruxi suddenly arched his hand at Lin Ruxue and said: "Since my Western Sword Sect can't clearly oppose the imperial court, and I can't refute the face of fellow martial artists, I may have a way, maybe I can do it." This remark rekindled the hope of Chu Qing'an and Luo Baiyi, and they bowed together: "Please make it clear to the seniors!" Lin Ruxue also hurriedly asked, "What is the high opinion of the senior brother?"

"I'm an old friend of Yin Nai, the Mansion of the Tilting Cloud Mansion, why don't you let me go into the city and ask if I can find an opportunity to let Luo Shaoxia and the others out of the city. Yan Ruxi got up and said, and then looked at Luo Baiyi and the two with a smile on his face.

Lin Ruxue smiled happily: "Then there is Senior Brother Lao." ”

"Thank you, senior!" Even if you can't get helpers, it's naturally best to be able to find a way out of the city without fighting. Yan Ruxi was willing to help, and Luo Baiyi and Chu Qingan must have thanked him.

"Since this is the case, please ask Senior Brother to go to the Tilting Cloud Mansion, Luo Shaoxia and Miss Chu please live in my Silver Moon Villa temporarily, it will take time to succeed or not. Lin Ruxue was also very hospitable, and did not have the appearance of a high-ranking leader, which made Chu Qing'an and the others feel a little cordial, so they stayed for the time being, Lin Ruxue sent disciples to arrange accommodation for the two of them, and Yan Ruxi immediately set off for the Qingyun Mansion.

The disciples of the Western Sword Sect led the way in front, while Chu Qing'an and Luo Baiyi followed behind, and the two talked side by side, but they didn't look at each other. Luo Baiyi smiled: "Thank you for showing up in time, otherwise I really don't know how to end." ”

"What, if I don't come, do you want to demolish this Silver Moon Villa?" Chu Qingan also joked playfully, the two of them are somewhat similar in temperament to some extent, and they often quarrel, but they can be regarded as a kind of friend.

The disciple led the two of them to the wing, turned around and saluted: "The wingroom has been prepared for the two of you, what is missing, what is needed, just explain to the servants, this is Miss Chu's wing, Luo Shaoxia's wingroom is just around the corner." ”

The two thanked each other in unison, and the disciple returned the favor and left. Just as Luo Baiyi was physically and mentally exhausted due to a night of running around and wanted to go back to the room to rest, he was stopped by Chu Qing'an, who had already stepped into the room with one foot: "Hey!" Luo Baiyi's face was full of vicissitudes of life, and he looked back blankly and said, "What are you doing?"

Chu Qing'an gritted his silver teeth and shouted angrily: "It's not in my room yet!"

Luo Baiyi was slightly stunned, and after reacting, he almost jumped up in fright, hurriedly pressed the shirt on his chest, and said with a face full of disbelief: "You, you, what are you doing, I'm not that kind of person! I can't be sorry for the old knife!" Chu Qing'an was stunned for a few seconds when he heard this, and couldn't help blushing, and then stomped his feet angrily, eager to pull out the Folding Snow Sword and cut Luo Baiyi into several pieces: "If you talk nonsense again, this woman will cut you into meat sauce!" I want you to explain to me what has happened in these days!"

Luo Baiyi breathed a sigh of relief, and saw that Chu Qing'an had already flicked his sleeves and entered the door, so he also followed.

More than an hour later, Yan Ruxi had already rushed to the city gate of Lerma, and shouted to the city tower: "Open the city quickly, let me in!" After a while, someone on the city tower poked his head out and replied loudly: "The imperial court has ordered the city gate to be blocked, and no one is allowed to enter the city!"

Yan Ruxi raised his head and shouted: "Please let me know, I am Yan Ruxi of the Western Sword Sect Silver Moon Mountain Villa, and I am the old friend of Lord Yin Su Li Zhisu of the Tilting Cloud Mansion, and I have something important to report!"

After waiting for a while, the city gate slowly opened, and the city tower poked his head out and said, "Please enter the city, sir!" Yan Ruxi rode into the city again and went straight to the mansion. And immediately the gates of the city were shut. But when this move was seen by the people in the city, they naturally became in a commotion and clamored to leave the city. Liu Yuanjun in the Yuelai Inn was also aware of it, and Zhu Qingqiu asked, "Why is there so much restlessness outside the window?"

Liu Yuanjun closed the window, turned his head and replied: "Just now the city gate was opened, and a person Pegasus entered the city, and the people clamored to go out. ”
