The Taixu building lives next to the mountain, the center of the valley is an empty martial arts field, the stone pillars on both sides are neatly arranged, listen to Jiang Linan say that this Taixu Gate is at night, the stone pillars around the martial arts field will be lit brazier, and the entire martial arts field will be bright as day.

The mountain road winds through the woods, and it is almost impossible to see outside, but the sound of swords from below still lingers. The snow began to melt and flowed down the mountain into a stream. Walking on the road, you can hear the sound of gurgling water, and occasionally a few snows slip from the trees, smashing on the ground and scattering into beautiful shapes, but a few people have no intention of watching.

The further you go inside, the clearer the appearance of the palace in the depths is in front of you. The palace at the end of the valley is more than ten zhang high, with a semicircular outline at the top like a huge pot lid, and the gray-black walls below exude the simplicity of age.

The palace is surrounded by flowers and plants Only at this time it looks like a rough outline, most of it has been covered with snow, but you can still see the grandeur of the palace.

Mu Xiao and the others walked on the left slope of the hill a few hundred meters away from the palace, the road was narrow, and there were thick leaves under the snow, which seemed to have not been cleaned for a long time.

Lin Gang was inevitably worried when he walked in it, although there were no people living on this side of the hill, there would be people who walked around occasionally, and if they were discovered, something would happen. He held the hilt of the sword tightly in his hand, and the expression on his face became more and more nervous, dozens of meters in front of him was a lonely courtyard, which was also one of the few buildings on this side of the hillside, which seemed to be where people lived, but here was the entrance to the Taixu dungeon, and you could also see the disciples in the door guarding.

"Senior brother, the dungeon is being guarded, I'm afraid we shouldn't get too close!" Lin Gang reminded the somewhat withered courtyard in front of him.

The entrance to this Taixumen dungeon is only a few hundred meters away from the palace, which means that it is very close to the place where the door master lives.

Everyone stopped, looking through the gap in the grove, several disciples at the entrance of the dungeon walked back and forth, looking not to let their guard down at all, all with swords in their hands, burly and strong.

"Looks like we're going to have to get around from above. Jiang Qiaoqiao thought for a while and said in a low voice. Since the dungeon is guarded, it has to go around the dungeon and place the spring flowers before making plans.

"Senior Sister is thinking of the Houshan Cave?" Lin Gang said thoughtfully: "The cave is the place where the sect master cultivates, and besides, entering the cave from this direction has to pass through Elder Qiushang's residence, I'm afraid it's too risky!"

While a few people were talking, the fat man carried the spring flowers, wiped his sweat with his big hands and said, "You should hurry up and find a way, this girl is sinking." ”

"Let's lose weight!" Mu Xiao quipped, and then asked Lin Gang, "Brother Lin, where will the disciples in the sect be active at this time?"

"Martial arts arena!"

"Martial Arts ......"

Jiang Linan and Lin Gang returned at the same time.

"That's good, hurry around here now, and pass through that bamboo forest, but where is the cave you are talking about?" Mu Xiao asked, pointing to a faintly visible bamboo forest.

Since most of the people are in the martial arts arena at this time, and the one there is in the middle of the valley, which is farther away from the back mountain, there should be no problem in entering the back mountain cave from here.

Lin Gang, Jiang Linan, and Qiaoqiao nodded together, and a few people cautiously bypassed the entrance of the dungeon and walked towards the bamboo forest. This Taixumen environment is really good, there are trees everywhere, even if it is a hot summer, it should be cool and comfortable here, right? Mu Xiao walked in front and sighed in his heart

。

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, he finally walked into a dense bamboo forest, Mu Xiao raised his head and sighed: "Taixu Gate is really not small, it is simply over the mountains." ”

"That's nature, or it can't accommodate thousands of people. Jiang Linan said with some pride.

"Thousand?" the fat man was a little surprised: "I thought there would be at most eight hundred!"

Jiang Qiaoqiao said with some disdain at this time: "What's the use of having more people, it's not good to have more strength without refinement." ”

"I see, we came in this time, and after saving people, we might as well destroy Wei Long's old thief. Mu Xiao said half-jokingly.

However, the others gasped, and everyone had a thought: This guy is too angry, right?

Wei Long is now the strength of the True Sword Sect, how easy is it to kill him?

"If you don't brag, you'll die?" the fat man was the first to scold, and the others nodded in agreement.

The bamboo forest is full of fallen leaves, and occasionally you can see a few white snowdrifts. A few people cautiously walked forward, for fear of making discordant movements.

Seeing that he was about to walk out of this bamboo forest, a figure in front of him attracted everyone's attention, and at the same time he was a little nervous. A gray-haired old man turned his back to Mu Xiao and them, his hands clenched into fists and his back, like a statue motionless, if it weren't for the long hair fluttering in the wind, he really thought he was not a living person.

"Somebody's sneaking around here. The moment the old man turned around, it was accompanied by a questioning tone.

Jiang Linan was about to put down the basket and lift up his loose coat, but was stopped by Mu Xiao and motioned for them to walk behind. At this time, Lin Gang walked in front, he knew that it was impossible to escape, but the person in front of him was Elder Qiushang, so he could only go forward at this time.

Lin Gang saluted Qiu Yi, who was two zhang away, with a sword in both hands, and said, "Report to Elder Qiu, they are here to deliver food, and the disciples saw that they were going the wrong way, so they brought them down from here." ”

"Delivering food?" Qiu Sheng looked past Lin Gang, looked at the fat man behind him, frowned deeply, raised his sleeves and stretched out his hand to point at the fat man and said, "What's going on?"

Qiu Shang's voice was a little high, and he strode towards the fat man's location, the fat man deliberately used his fat body to cover the two Jiang Qiaoqiao sisters and brothers behind him, and smiled innocently: "You are Elder Qiu?"

"Who are you?" Qiushang's big hand was about to be raised.

"Sister Chunhua!" The fat man spoke quickly, and when he saw Qiushang's big hand stopped in mid-air, he continued: "Sister Chunhua asked us to come together to deliver food, but I don't know why I fainted halfway." We had to take her to find Elder Qiu, no, I got lost and strayed into this bamboo forest. ”

As the fat man spoke, he put down the spring flowers on his shoulders, and Qiu Shang approached suspiciously. When he saw Chunhua's face, his loose lips hooked into an evil smile: "Cough, give her to the old man, you hurry up and send food to the room." ”

"Okay!" said the fat man.

Poof......

"Amount"

Mu Xiao and Jiang Qiaoqiao behind the fat man had already appeared on both sides at this time, three cold lights suddenly flashed, Jiang Linan's long sword slashed through Qiu Shang's neck, and a touch of blood splashed on the fat man's face, Jiang Qiaoqiao and Mu Xiao's long swords pierced into Qiu Shang's body from both sides at the same time.

Qiu Shang's shocked expression, the hands that were about to hug Chunhua suddenly covered her neck, and she didn't say a word.

A few meters away, Lin Gang saw a bulge

As in the scene, the whole person fell to the ground limply, his body kept squirming backwards, shaking his head in horror and unable to say a word.

The spring flower in the fat man's arms opened his eyes slightly at this time, and saw the autumn clothes with bleeding necks leaning to the ground and falling, his eyes turned white and he fainted.

In Mu Xiao's memory, he hadn't killed a pseudo-sword sect so easily, although it was a little dishonorable, but they had to do this, otherwise it would cause a lot of trouble.

The last trace of blood from the Sanssouci Sword disappeared, Mu Xiao strode forward and walked in front of the panicked Lin Gang, who had a frightened expression, staring at the approaching Mu Xiao, the corners of his mouth trembled and begged for mercy: "Don't kill me, don't kill me!"

"You haven't killed anyone, have you?" Mu Xiao's smile was still the same, but there was still a faint murderous aura on his body.

The smiling face made Lin Gang's heart feel like ashes, as if he had fallen into a biting ice cave all of a sudden, and he was about to flee outside the bamboo forest. Mu Xiao stopped in front of him in a flash, and said coldly: "What are you running away from, I won't kill you, but you must follow us from now on, remember not to try to shout in vain, otherwise you will die worse than him!"

Mu Xiao pointed to the autumn clothes covered by Jiang Linan with leaves, Lin Gang was like living in a dream at this time, he wanted to wake up with two slaps, but he didn't dare to move. His eyes didn't dare to leave the long sword in Mu Xiao's hand, and hot tears kept sliding down from the corners of his eyes, and the crying voice was getting louder and louder.

"Don't cry, or I'll kill you. Get up and come with us!" Mu Xiao had a serious expression, and Lin Gang was terrified.

Lin Gang struggled to get up from the ground, his legs were weak and he was about to fall back, Mu Xiao grabbed his arm with one hand and said, "You have to go through all this sooner or later, pick up the sword." ”

Lin Gang, who was sobbing, didn't dare to say a word, bent down to pick up the long sword that fell to the ground, and Mu Xiao felt a little guilty in his clear eyes.

In Lin Gang's logic, Qiu Sheng was a strong man of the Pseudo-Sword Sect, but he was easily killed by Mu Xiao and the others in the bamboo forest, which was a fact that he could not accept.

"Let's go! Go to Qiu Shang's residence!"

After disposing of Qiu Shang's body, Jiang Linan, Jiang Qiaoqiao and the fat man walked together, and after a few dozen meters is Qiu Shang's residence, since Qiu Shang is dead, it should be safer to live in his residence now.

The residences of the four elders of Taixumen are all relatively remote and quiet, except for one or two subordinates or family members, there is basically no one around. In addition, Qiu Shang has a habit of not liking people to live in the residence, and the hygiene of the house on weekdays is to call a few disciples to clean things, and he has always lived alone in a house, which also makes him feel superior.

Now that Qiushang is dead, his residence is an empty house. Although it is less than 200 meters away from the palace where the owner lives, there are trees in the middle, so even if there is some movement, it is difficult to notice.

Entering Qiushang's residence, the fat man couldn't wait to throw Chunhua into a room, helped her hands and feet plug her mouth with a cloth, and after doing all this, he put his hands together and kept saying sorry to Chunhua in a coma.

"Sister Chunhua, don't blame me, I didn't mean to, I didn't expect this medicine to attack so quickly. The fat man's face was full of guilt, and he spoke with sincerity.

I didn't know when the door would open, Mu Xiao, Jiang Qiaoqiao, and Jiang Linan stood in a row behind him at this time, looking at him. After a while, they all walked away with helpless faces, standing in the hall without saying anything.

After a long day of driving, a few people finally sat down to rest for a while, and the next thing was to find an opportunity to explore the Taixu dungeon.
