Chapter 47 The Investigation Begins

After the two rested for a while, they got up and walked out of the room together, according to yesterday's appointment, the big man wanted to take Sikong Ember to take a good look at the beautiful scenery of Qiongxiao Mountain today.

Qiongxiao Mountain has one water, two cui, three streams and four peaks, the main peak is named the Immortal Peak because of the immortal flying up, the immortal peak is the most magnificent, it is a veritable giant peak, the east is adjacent to Qiongxian Water, the west is by Wanzhang Yuan.

The stone sinus on the mountain is like a well, the dense forest cultivates bamboo, the clouds are steaming, and the first sword school in the world - Qiongxiao Sword School is located here.

With the main peak where the Qiongxiao Sword Sect is located as the center, the remaining three peaks are tilted around the main peak.

A beautiful clear river runs through the entire Qiongxiao Mountain, reflecting the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers, attracting a large number of tourists to visit and play all year round.

In addition, Qiongxiao Mountain is rich in green bamboo, and the mountains and lakes are connected into a piece of verdant green.

Therefore, there is "a stream of water glazed together, ten thousand stacks of clouds and mountains purple and green piles", the so-called mountain because of the water live, water because of the charm of the mountain eyebrows is this principle.

The reputation of the first mountain in the world is not covered, and the Sikong Ember who saw it was amazed, and the two walked and walked, and unconsciously came to the forbidden place of the previous back mountain.

Sikong Ember was in a huge clearing in the shape of a circle at the moment, and although the ground was filled with sand and gravel, he could still see the shocking ravines drawn by the sword qi.

Thinking back to that night's escape, I still have some lingering palpitations.

But the big man next to him pointed to the surroundings and said: "Tut-tut, Brother Sikong, I admire you in my heart now, you look at this terrifying power, if it were me, I'm afraid it won't be much better than the bamboo here." ”

The latter was a little embarrassed, and said with an embarrassed smile: "This is thanks to Elder Li Fu's mercy, luck, I just happened to be knocked into the enchantment by the exploding qi wave, otherwise I would have to shed my skin if I didn't die." ”

The big man patted Sikong Ember on the shoulder and said: "Luck is also part of strength, I heard that you have resisted Elder Lifu's attacks several times, and your kid actually has a handful of his old man, you must know that Elder Lifu is notoriously ruthless in Qiongxiao Mountain, thinking that his old man is also ...... Haha"

As he spoke, the big man closed his mouth, but a lewd smile was written on his face.

Sikong Ember looked at the other party gloating, and said helplessly: "Who are you listening to?"

Sikong Ember exhaled a breath of turbid air and continued: "It's not as magical as rumored by the outside world, it was Elder Li Cheng who left a true qi in my body to defend himself at a critical moment, otherwise my small body is not enough for Elder Li Fu and his old man to raise his hand." ”

As he spoke, the big man stopped, looked at Sikong Ember and said, "You are now a celebrity of our Qiongxiao Sword Sect, and you can resist the strongest blow of the three elders with the six-rank realm, although you have not witnessed it with your own eyes, but in the secret realm in front of you, you have defeated several elders of my Qiongxiao Sword Sect with the strength of one person, which everyone has witnessed." ”

Seeing Sikong Ash's bitter face, the big man smiled, waved his hand and said: "Tut-tut, okay, okay, I won't tease you, a few elders have already explained to us disciples yesterday that your miraculous deeds of carrying several elders are actually supported by high-ranking people behind their backs, ah, some people's images instantly returned to their original form......"

As he spoke, the big man looked at Sikong Ember with a look of underweight.

After listening to the big man's words, Sikong Ember understood the general situation, and the sword faction explained internally that the confrontation with Elder Li Fu was due to Elder Li Cheng's secret help to Fang Cai, and then the forbidden land fought against several elders, but also because there was a master and uncle behind him to borrow strength, and he actually had nothing to do with him, and he was even scared out at the beginning of the sword formation, and in the end, he got some opportunities because of the blessing of misfortune, and his skills improved by leaps and bounds......

Although it sounds quite obscene, this set of rhetoric has invisibly helped Sikong Ember solve a lot of trouble.

In this way, one person kept talking, one person listened patiently, stopped browsing and sightseeing, and unconsciously came to an open place.

The flowers here are full of flowers, take a deep breath, the fragrance is fragrant, and the spleen is refreshing.

Sikong Ember was a little enlightened at this time, and the fragrance of flowers he smelled before daring to love was wafting out from here.

After the introduction of the big man, I learned that this is a rare place on Qiongxiao Mountain not to plant green bamboo, and the love of those female disciples within the deep sword sect, they have to come here to enjoy the flowers in their spare time, but in recent days, the sword sect has strictly ordered the disciples to practice hard during the day and not to be lazy, so there is no one else to see here.

Looking into the distance along the colorful flowers and plants, I found that there were several cliffs in front of me, which appeared out of the soil so abruptly.

Careful identification found that there were nine in total, and the one in the middle was the highest, rising from the ground seven or eight zhang, and the surrounding eight were only about five or six zhang.

At the top of each cliff slope there is a huge stone platform with a diameter of about one zhang, which looks like nine big nails from a distance, nailed into the ground.

Moreover, dozens of zhang away from the Nine Sitting Stone Platforms, there was a terrifying cold sword aura, this aura was too familiar, and it was clearly a miniature version of the Demon Sealing Sword Array.

The big man explained: "In front of it is the Demon Suppression Platform of Qiongxiao Mountain, and the heads and elders of the past dynasties have strictly ordered that all disciples must not come close to fifty zhang, otherwise they will be attacked by sword qi, not to mention, they will also be severely punished."

But even so, there are still many disciples who usually try to get closer, but they are generally controlled at about sixty zhang. ”

Sikong Ember was a little puzzled and asked, "Why is this?"

"Because although the sword qi here is overbearing and abnormal, but if the distance is controlled, it is not a good whetstone, and many disciples come to observe and meditate, so that their martial arts cultivation can go further. ”

The big man smiled and looked at Sikong Ash: "I also come here often, it is very helpful for mastering sword qi and simulating the enemy, do you want to go over and feel it?"

Sikong Ember didn't expect the sword array to have such a magical effect, and he was full of curiosity in his heart at the moment, how the terrifying sword qi of the sword array helped them improve their strength.

So he walked with He Youwei towards the nine majestic cliffs in the distance.

Only about seventy zhang away from the cliff slope was approached, and Sikong Ember felt a cold sword aura.

At this moment, the sword qi emitted from the sword array in the distance was dense, and the sword qi the size of an embroidery needle filled their surroundings.

The tiny sword qi continued to hit them, and the skin around them began to have a slight pain, but the next moment, as if sensing the provocation from the outside world, the qi in Sikong Ash's body spontaneously condensed a faint film of true qi on the surface of his body.

The previous stinging pain disappeared in an instant.

Sikong Ember turned his head to look at the big man, and found that the other party was looking at him with an incredible gaze, and asked puzzledly, "What's wrong, do I look strange?"

The big man let out a long sigh and muttered to himself, "People are better than people, it's really infuriating." ”

Then he pointed to the faint film of true qi on Sikong Ember's body and said: "You know, the formation of sword qi, one depends on the level of one's own comprehension of sword intent, the stronger the sword intent, the more condensed the sword qi, and even the formation of a sword gang; ”

"We are here to feel the sword intent, and the most important thing is to stimulate and enhance our own qi through the weak sword qi on the periphery of the sword array, with the baptism of sword qi, it will stimulate the operation of the qi in our body, and over time, our own qi and qi will continue to increase, and the circulation of qi will also be a lot more proficient. ”

The big man glanced at the front sadly, "I think it took me more than half a month to resist before a thin film of true qi was stimulated from my body, you are good, you will have it as soon as you come." ”

Sikong Ember understood, it turned out that the other party wanted to let himself taste the hardships he had suffered back then.

He patted the big man on the shoulder to express comfort, but this is really a good place, just for a while, the qi in his body seems to speed up a little, this feeling catches up with his cultivation alone for half a day, it seems that he will have to come more often in the future.

The two stayed for a while and then left, but Sikong Ember suddenly remembered what Senior Brother Chengfeng had said at the beginning, let him check the detained martial arts people and see if he could find a breakthrough from here.

So Sikong Ember stopped, turned his head and asked, "Senior Brother He, I don't know something, let's see if you know." ”

He Youwei also stopped, and said with a hearty smile: "What are you doing so politely, just ask any questions." ”

Sikong Ember scratched his head, and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, I just think it's strange, I remember that many people came to the mountain to look for some earth spirit beads before, and they were caught by you, and those who have money lost money, and those who don't have money were not caught by you to do coolies? Why haven't you seen a single one of the Sword Sect's major repairs recently?"

I didn't think about it, but when the big man heard this question, the smile on his face dissipated and became a little dignified.

After thinking for a moment, he looked up at a pavilion in the distance and said, "Brother Sikong, this is not a place to talk, let's go and sit there." ”

Sikong Ember nodded in agreement.

The two of them came to the stone table and chairs inside the pavilion and sat down, and the big man spoke: "There are too many strange things that have happened recently, and you didn't say that I really forgot about it." ”

"How?"

The big man pondered for a moment, and said: "This matter is also strange, this matter is still the former head Xuan Yuanju did not pass through the elders, but directly ordered, summoned for us to do, at first we all thought that this matter was a very good strategy, that is the daily progress of the gold, much better than our going down the mountain to eliminate violence, but then I found out that those people in the rivers and lakes who had no money to pay the ransom disappeared one by one inexplicably. ”

"Gone?"

"Yes, it's gone, from the beginning, those who were arrested were handed over to the cronies of the head of the house, and they were all taken by them to be imprisoned in a stone cave on the edge of a cliff on the southwest side of the back mountain, but once I heard the senior brother who delivered the meal mentioned it, he said that there seemed to be a group of fewer people in it every once in a while, and at first we didn't care that it was their family who ransomed it back, but two days ago I found out that no one came to pay the ransom at all, and the people who were imprisoned did not appear after that, and then it was these things after you came。 ”

Sikong Ember frowned and said, "It does seem to be unusual, do you know where that cliff is?"

The big man thought for a moment and replied, "Yes, it's about a mile away from here."

Sikong Ember patted the big man on the shoulder and said, "Then let's go over and have a look together, maybe we can find something." ”

The big man didn't hesitate, and the two got up and walked southwest.
