Chapter 13
After listening to the old man's questioning, this time it was Sikong Ash's turn to become serious, what happened that night, the terrifying black-robed mysterious man, the master whose life and death are still uncertain, these have always been a stinger in his heart......
Sikong Ember stood up, retracted his usual idle expression, and appeared with a calm and resolute look that he had rarely seen, and solemnly saluted the gray-robed old man, who did not speak, but looked at him calmly.
Sikong Ember didn't hide it this time, from how he noticed the mysterious man that night, and then how the black-robed mysterious man appeared, what he said, and what he wanted him to do, tell the gray-robed old man 1510, because Sikong Ember thought about it, and his intuition told him that the gray-robed old man in front of him must have an outstanding status in the Qiongxiao Sword Sect, since the other party said that he had a relationship with the Qiongxiao Sword Sect, then for the sake of this origin, even if the other party didn't help, it wouldn't hurt him.
After listening to Sikong Ash's narration, the gray-robed old man frowned for the first time, from Sikong Ash's words, it can be judged that the other party's realm is at least the second grade or above, with this kind of strength, it is either rich or expensive, and the status of the other party will not put this pair of masters and apprentices in his eyes at all, but now he just grabs one and lets the other do a completely impossible thing...... It's weird and weird.
The gray-robed old man was silent for a moment, and for the first time he walked towards Sikong Ash, stopped at a distance of about a foot in front of Sikong Ash, and said, "Do you know where the spirit bead of this place is?"
Sikong Ember shook his head and said he didn't know.
The old man continued: "The Qiongxiao Sword Sect is as high as a cloud, even if I want to get this treasure, it is almost impossible. β
Sikong Ember looked at the old man with a shocked face, the other party's realm has thrown him for several streets, he can't do it, then he is still playing a fart, the key is that he doesn't know where it is......
The old man looked at the young man who was a little depressed, a little funny, and stopped teasing him, "But others can't do it, but you still have a slight possibility, or how to say that you have a relationship with my Qiongxiao Sword Sect." β
Sikong Ember heard the old man say that he still had hope, and immediately jumped in front of the old man with two excited steps, but he felt that it seemed a little rude and hurriedly saluted, saying: "Ask the old man for some advice."
The gray-robed old man stretched out his right hand for the first time, patted the shoulder of the young man in front of him, turned around and looked at the south again, and after a moment of silence, he said slowly: "The old man's name is Li Cheng, he is one of the eight elders of the Qiongxiao Sword Sect, and the "Earth Spirit Pearl" in the mouth of the world is in the hands of the old man's teacher, but it is ......."
Speaking of this, the old man paused slightly, as if he recalled something unhappy, his brows furrowed, and he continued: "But one night sixty years ago, for some reason, the teacher actually had a violent quarrel with the ancestor, and the next day the ancestor united with the eight elders at that time to open the Qiongxiao Sword Sect's mutual mountain array, and jointly performed the secret technique of banning, suppressing the mentor in the secret realm of the back mountain, and the mentor never arrived from beginning to end, and there was not even a word of justification......
The gray-robed old man couldn't help but feel a little sad, sighed and continued: "It happened suddenly, I didn't have time to say a word to my teacher, alas, but at that time I was just a little Taoist boy who had just turned ten years old, even if I could say something, what could I say, but if there was no teacher passing by to rescue, there would be no existence that I strongly promised, so I vowed to rescue my teacher at that time." β
When the old man said this, he seemed a little excited, paused, and after a long sigh of relief, he looked at the young man in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.
And Sikong Ember didn't speak from beginning to end, just listened carefully to the old man's narration, and found that the other party suddenly didn't speak, so he looked up at this big man of the Qiongxiao faction with some regret.
The gray-robed old man smiled slightly, " The earth spirit bead in your mouth, I just saw the quarrel with the master on the night of the master, at that time I happened to be playing on the side of the martial arts field, and when I saw the teacher coming back, I greeted the past, but before I passed, I saw the two of them arguing, so I hid aside and peeked, I saw that during their quarrel, the master took out a bead from his arms that emitted a golden light, the ancestor seemed to want to take it, but it was swallowed by the teacher, and then I never saw it again, the bead should still be in the teacher's place, but recently it was turned out by someone with a heart, this matter is a little strangeγ β
Sikong Ember was even more puzzled, scratched his head with his hand, and couldn't help asking, "Senior, you said that your mentor is now imprisoned in the secret realm, do you want me to rescue him? How can this be done ......."
The gray-robed old man waved his hand and patted Sikong Ash's head lightly, and said with a smile: "Since I said it, it is something that I am sure of, why are you in a hurry." β
Sikong Ember touched his head, smiled embarrassedly, and immediately stopped talking.
The old man looked at the young man's serious expression, smiled, and continued: "Don't worry, the ban outside the secret realm has been lifted at the time of the death of the master ancestor immortal, and now there is only a protective barrier outside the secret realm, which was set up in order to prevent my disciples from accidentally breaking in, as for you outsiders, there is no task to block you, if you successfully reach the secret realm, you will be considered safe for the time being, because no one can enter the secret realm to arrest you unless the head of the sect comes in person." β
When the old man said this, he suddenly stopped, sighed slightly, looked at the young man in front of him with a somewhat solemn expression and continued: "However, when the master died of the immortal, he had already ordered the ban on the master to be lifted, but I don't know why the old man refused to come out...... Besides, this parting is sixty years, and I am not sure if Shizun's personality will change dramatically. β
"Seniors are afraid that your master's personality will change drastically, and he will be killed with a slap when he sees me?" Sikong Ember scratched his head and said.
"It's not impossible"
Sikong Ember shrugged: "Alas...... Sure enough, there is no free lunch in the world, it is all desperate......"
"But...... The greater the risk, the higher the return, maybe there is still an opportunity waiting for you", the old man looked at Sikong Ash's expectant expression, smiled slightly, and continued: "Shizun was a rare talent in a hundred years, and it is expected to be comparable to the existence of the ancestor of the mountain, and at that time he was only in his early twenties, and he had already reached the realm of a first-class immortal, which was a realm that the whole world dreamed of......"
Speaking of this, the old man had a look of reverence on his face.
"It's a pity...... It's all in vain. The gray-robed old man sighed and looked up to the south, " Let you go this time, in fact, I also have selfish intentions, when the master was banned, I once promised to save him, this matter has always been a hurdle in the old man's heart, I sent the sword cultivator to pay attention to the sword heart is clear, now this matter is unresolved, the sword heart is not clear, so that my realm has been unable to break through the threshold of the second grade, it has been nearly 20 years, and you don't need to do anything, if you meet the master successfully, just convey the old man's intentions, try to help him get out of trouble, is to complete the old man's wish, no matter whether the thing is successful or not, the old man will ensure that you leave safely, and owe you a favorβ
Sikong Ember saw the other party's earnest eyes, fell into contemplation, and now he has fallen into it, I don't know how many levels there are behind, I am afraid that it will be a lifetime to break out, and now my master does not know whether he is dead or alive, if he can get the help of this senior, he can also be more sure of the follow-up master...... Alas, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor!
After weighing it in his heart, Sikong Ember solemnly made a big salute to the old man in front of him, and said firmly: "The younger generation will definitely do his best to fulfill the wish of the old man." β
The gray-robed old man was full of surprise, and hurriedly helped the young man up, and said with a smile: "The little guy is suddenly impassioned, and the old man is embarrassed to let you work in vain." β
After speaking, he pointed his finger to the guide, "It's not too far from here to the secret realm of the back mountain, it's almost five miles away, you will encounter a total of four waves of people to intercept, with your current realm to break through a little difficult, but fortunately, the exercises you study are of the same origin as me, I will teach you three moves, the first three waves of confrontation should be easy to break the formation, but remember, don't hurt people." β
Sikong Ember hurriedly nodded in agreement, rubbing his hands and looking impatient, it was the guidance of the peak master of the third grade, and he could wake up with a smile when he slept.
The old man's right hand stretched out two fingers and put them together at the center of Sikong Ash's eyebrows, the two of them closed at the same time, and the old man pinched the trick with his left hand and said in a deep voice: "The mind is clear, the sword heart is clear, don't be distracted...... Remember that my Qiongxiao Sword Sect mainly focuses on cultivating sword qi, there are no complicated moves, and the pursuit of one sword breaks ten thousand laws, the first style, breaking the river ......"
About half an hour later, the gray-robed old man slowly finished his work, standing quietly in place and looking at the young man in front of him, I don't know if it was an illusion, the young man in front of him turned out to be somewhat similar to the character and temperament of the master of course, maybe he was really expected to crack the secret of the year, maybe there would be another change in the rivers and lakes that were about to hang up the bloody storm.
Just thinking about it, Sikong Ember had already come to his senses, and the old man held the young man who was about to bow down, and said in a deep voice: "You and I can't talk about tonight's matter to a third person, and the relationship between you and me is just a transaction between you and me, and there is no master-apprentice relationship. β
Sikong Ember clenched his fists and said, "Junior, remember, but this is only the first three waves of interceptions, what about the fourth one?"
The gray-robed old man's expression was solemn again, and he said, "You can't beat the fourth way no matter how you learn it, because the one who guards the secret realm is my fellow disciple, named "Li Fu" , My junior brother has always been old-fashioned, you don't expect to have a love to talk about, and my junior brother's strength is not much weaker than mine, so don't think about using force to solve it, after breaking through the first three barriers, you will come to a bamboo forest, the bamboo forest is about two miles away, you just spread your legs and run for your life, don't think about any luck, but my junior brother's speed is not good, and your light skills are peculiar, you should be able to enter the secret realm smoothly, and I have a barrier in your body that can withstand an attack from anyone below the second grade. As for entering the secret realm, whether or not you can get the approval of my master and fulfill your wish depends on your own creation. β
