The whole mountain resort is shrouded in clouds, lifeless, and very depressing. But just looking at the tragic situation of those disciples on the way up the mountain made the messengers of the righteous camp tremble that day. The more he walked up, the more frightened he felt, and there was still a hundred zhang away from the golden sword altar in the center of the Dragon and Tiger Villa, and the horse that sat down was unwilling to move forward a single bit.

No matter how the messenger whipped and kicked, the horse only shook its head wildly, and its hooves did not advance but retreated, and it would not come forward with a neighing voice.

The messenger had no choice but to give up. Turned over and dismounted, tightened the spear in his hand, and walked alone in the direction of the Golden Sword Altar. But there was no one along the road, only piles of corpses, and the smell of blood in the air made him creepy.

Passing through the mountain gate, there was a small sound under his feet, and when he looked down, he was stepping on a blood-stained golden feather under his feet, and the end of the golden feather was extremely sharp, and it had always been someone's secret weapon. It was only left by the murderer, so he picked it up, looked at it, and held it in his arms.

When the envoy stepped over the stone steps stained dark red by blood and came to the golden sword altar, the spear in his hand fell to the ground, his legs trembled uncontrollably, and the messenger's face turned pale, and his lips trembled: "Dead...... Dead......" The disciple saw the headless corpses all over the ground, and he had already broken his guts, where should he stay longer, turned around and spread his legs, and staggered down the mountain.

"Dead! Dead! All the Northern Sword Sect is dead......" he cried and howled, jumping back and running away. He couldn't even take care of his mount parked halfway up the mountain, and he couldn't get on the horse several times, so he left his horse and ran down the mountain alone.

When the envoy of the Tianyi camp calmed down, he thought to himself: "I should quickly return to the Tianyi camp to report this matter to the general!" But he couldn't see his mount left and right, and then he remembered that he had landed on Huju Mountain. I was so timid that I didn't dare to turn back, so I had to walk to the nearby state capital before making a decision.

There is no impermeable door in the world, and in this way, the news of the tragic destruction of the Northern Sword Sect spread among the rivers and lakes. People only said that You Jinwen borrowed the corpse to return his soul and took revenge on the Northern Sword Sect, but he didn't know why he left that piece of golden feather. The reputation of the Nine Shadows Golden Sparrow was not very loud, and most people would not have thought that a woman like Rao Mengli could be a person who had the ability to slaughter the entire Northern Sword Sect.

But the way of this world is often not as simple as people think.

No one knows who the real murderer is, but it has long been rumored that if You Jinwen borrows the corpse to return his soul, he will first seek revenge from the Quartet Sword Sect. The Northern Sword Sect has been wiped out, and the next one is most likely the Eastern Sword Sect or the Western Sword Sect.

The rumors are not groundless, the head of the Quartet Sword Sect once worked together to besiege and kill You Jinwen on the Yiye Sword Gate. Although he never succeeded, he had a grudge after all. Therefore, the three major sword sects of the East, the West, and the South took precautions and prepared in advance. He ordered his disciples to keep strict guards, patrol day and night, prevent any suspicious people from going up the mountain, and reward them heavily if they found clues about the golden feather.

Don't be afraid of 10,000, just be afraid of what happens, although there are many people who don't know the words of ghosts and gods, but the fact that the Northern Sword Sect was wiped out is a bloody fact, which shows that someone has indeed begun to attack the Jianghu faction, no matter what his purpose is, it is much better to be prepared than to be caught off guard and be killed on the mountain.

Besides, after Rao Mengli and Yunyanyu subverted the Northern Sword Sect, Liu Yuanjun and the four of them set off from Mengyao Mountain and took the path to the direction of Anhuai Mansion. And Chu Qing'an and Dao Xueke also set off from Yiye Sword Gate. The two groups of people walked for a day and a night, and then found a place to rest.

When they set off again in the early morning of the second day, when the two of them went downstairs from the second floor of the inn, they heard a lot of rumors. At this time, in the inn, most of the residents sat in the hall to eat, and the little two were busy adding tea to each table, and at the same time busy wiping the table, and did not forget to talk to the residents.

"You don't know, this is yesterday, in the north, something big happened. After the little two wiped the table, he put the rag on his forearm, and lifted the teapot to press the lid and pour tea for one person. The resident asked, "Oh, it's not just something, Xiao Er said let's hear it." ”

Xiao Er just opened his mouth, and before he could talk, the guest at the next table took a sip of tea and pursed his lips, and said first: "You don't know this, this is the biggest thing in the past ten years." ”

"Oh, isn't it even more terrifying than that You Jinwen singled out the six major factions?"

Xiao Er leaned over to the guest, rubbed the corner of the table with a rag, and said in a low voice: "Yo, this matter is much more terrifying than that You Jinwen." It is rumored that after You Jinwen died, the resentment was too heavy, and the ghost did not disperse, and he borrowed the corpse to return his soul and wandered in the rivers and lakes. I'm about to find the various sects to take revenge. ”

"But I heard that You Jinwen was killed by the Dao Xueke of the Ten Ghost Hall, what does it have to do with the various sects?" Xiao Er smiled and said, "I'm afraid that it will be a matter of time before I find that Dao Xueke." "How could Xiao Er know that now that the famous people in the rivers and lakes, Xue Shaoxia, who killed You Jinwen and saved the major factions, stood behind him.

Dao Xueke and Chu Qing'an glanced at each other, Chu Qing'an pursed his lips and smiled, while Dao Xueke shook his head and smiled bitterly. The two walked down the stairs hand in hand and sat at a table, not far from the little two. When Xiao Er saw the guests coming downstairs, he naturally came over to entertain him, and asked with a smile: "Did you two sleep peacefully last night? What do you want to eat today? We have noodles, steamed buns, and steamed buns this morning." ”

"Come on

Two bowls of spring noodles. Dao Xueke said with a smile. Xiao Er finished wiping the table in front of the two, put the rag on his shoulder, and shouted to the back kitchen: "Okay, two bowls of Yangchun noodles!" After Xiao Er entertained the two, he went to the back kitchen to work, and after a while, he came with two bowls of hot noodles.

"Two bowls of Yangchun noodles! Here we are!" Xiao Er put the noodles on the table, touched the earlobes with his hot red hands, and said with a smile: "It's almost winter, this late autumn time, I eat two bowls of hot Yangchun noodles, the soup is watery, so happy." After that, he brought a plate of side dishes and put it aside: "Use it slowly, use it slowly." ”

"Thank you, little brother. Dao Xueke and Chu Qing'an thanked together.

As soon as Xiao Er was about to turn around and leave, the guest who had talked to him about You Jinwen before stopped him: "Eh, that Xiao Er, what hasn't you said yet?"

"Ah, there is such a thing? Haven't you heard some rumors from the rivers and lakes, such absurd words of ghosts and gods, don't believe it, don't believe it!"

Xiao Er smiled disapprerovingly: "Don't believe it, you have to listen to me carefully." Just yesterday, the Northern Sword Sect was wiped out. Didn't leave a single living mouth!" "Oh, is there really such a thing?" Even though Xiao Er deliberately lowered his voice, Dao Xueke and Chu Qing'an were martial arts practitioners after all, and they were used to being vigilant, so they stopped the chopsticks in their hands and listened quietly.

Hearing that the Northern Sword Sect had been wiped out, the two were also quite shocked, looked at each other, and lowered their heads again.

"Then how can it be seen that You Jinwen borrowed the corpse to resurrect the soul?" Xiao Er explained: "Do you think, these various sects and factions have only had a good life for a few days after returning from the Yiye Sword Gate? Moreover, in the battle of the Yiye Sword Gate, the vitality of the various sects was greatly damaged, how could they have the spare strength to attack the Northern Sword Sect? Moreover, if they mobilize the sword soldiers and send people to attack, they will definitely be known in advance, how can they be so unaware?"

"But the list of the Northern Sword Sect is strong and upright, but he has offended many people because of this. Perhaps, maybe other sects took advantage of the great damage of the Northern Sword Sect and sent masters to act alone?"

Xiao Er explained with a smile: "The Northern Sword Sect has been standing in the rivers and lakes for more than a hundred years, and its roots are deep and unshakable. In addition, in today's martial arts, who has the ability to wipe out such a big faction as the Northern Sword Sect? I am afraid that no one in the world will be able to do so. ”

"So there is only one explanation......"

"That's right! There is only one way to say it! That is, the ghost of You Jinwen is still gone, borrowing the corpse to return the soul, and looking for that list to ask for his life! I heard that the Northern Sword Sect is generally dead, and the death is extremely miserable, it must be the ghost of You Jinwen. I also heard that this northern sword sect suffered this catastrophe, and the other three major sword sects panicked. They had worked together to besiege and kill You Jinwen in Yiye Sword Gate, but now that Shan Zizhi is dead, it will be the turn of the three of them next. ”

"Oh, don't the other three heads of the sect be unstable day and night, and they are terrified every night?" "What's more, the three major sword sects each sent people to strictly guard against it, patrolling day and night, and strengthening vigilance, for fear that something would happen. That Xiao Er said such a shocking thing, but he still had a hippie smile on his face, and he didn't feel any regret.

The guest also smiled casually, raised the teacup and took a sip and smiled: "But ah, that has nothing to do with us ordinary people." How they like to fight, how many people die, it has nothing to do with us!" The little second also said: "Who said it wasn't?" After that, the two laughed together.

It wasn't until the shopkeeper came to the counter that he saw Xiao Er and the guest laughing, and he was displeased, so he coughed lightly and said, "Xiao Er, what are you doing, don't you go to the back kitchen to help?" And the shopkeeper is fiddling with the abacus and flipping through the account book.

Many diners and guests were as usual, but the noodles in Dao Xueke and Chu Qing'an's bowls didn't move much. The two listened for a while, and their hearts became more and more sour and sad. He was not only sad and sorry for the fall of the Northern Sword Sect, but also puzzled by the truth of Shan Zizhi's death. Neither of them believed what it was, and You Jinwen borrowed the corpse to resurrect his soul.

And what they are chilling about is that those diners use it as an after-dinner conversation, talking and laughing, as if the life and death of the Jianghu people are just a joke in their eyes. Chu Qing'an couldn't help but think: "Such a common people, is it still worth us to join hands with the imperial court to save them?" ”

The two of them had solemn faces and couldn't eat. Dao Xue leaned his head and whispered: "This matter is quite strange, the death of the single head will never be such an illusory attempt to revenge for his life by resurrecting the corpse." Before the two finished speaking, they must have known some other news. Chu Qing'an also said: "Shan Zhangmen once sacrificed his life and forgot to die, and fought You Jinwen, but now he died tragically, and I will find out the reason." ”

The two got up together and came to the counter, and the shopkeeper smiled when he saw the two coming: "Are you leaving?" Dao Xue Ke said. The shopkeeper smiled all over his face, pressed the sleeve of his right hand with his left hand, fiddled with some calculations, and then raised his head again and said, "A total of one or two coins of silver." ”

Dao Xueke took out a small ingot of silver from his sleeve, which weighed five taels, and slapped it on the counter. The shopkeeper accepted the money and was just about to look for money, but he was held down by the knife and said, "The shopkeeper is not in a hurry." The shopkeeper was shocked

Lost color and said: "Guest officer...... What does this mean?" "The shopkeeper does not have to look for the rest of the silver." Dao Xueke laughed.

"Oh, that's embarrassing. The shopkeeper happily put away the silver, and Dao Xueke continued: "The silver has been accepted, but there is something troublesome to the shopkeeper." After the shopkeeper received the money, he was naturally refreshed: "Although the guest officer orders!" Dao Xueke stepped forward and whispered: "Can you please ask the second little er, I need to ask him about something." ”

The shopkeeper's face was embarrassed and slightly hesitant: "Two guest officers, don't you think that little guy is not well entertained? I am the shopkeeper here, if he has anything wrong, I will take him to apologize to the two." Hearing this, Chu Qing'an took out another ingot of ten taels of silver and slapped it on the table, and said with a smile: "No, I really have something to ask, and I hope that the shopkeeper will be convenient." ”

The shopkeeper carefully collected the money, couldn't hide the smile on his face, and shouted at the back kitchen: "Little Er! Little Er!" After two sounds, the little two broke the rag and drilled out again, and answered with his head held high: "Come on—what is the shopkeeper calling me?"

The shopkeeper pointed to the two of them: "These two guest officers have something to do with you, you must know everything and say everything." Then he went back to his own business.

Xiao Er turned his head and said with a smile: "I don't know what the two of you are looking for?" Dao Xueke pulled him out of the store, and the two surrounded him and asked in a low voice: "I don't know if what the little second brother said about the destruction of the Northern Sword Sect is true or false?"

Xiao Er saw that the two of them looked like people in the rivers and lakes, and he didn't hide it: "There is indeed such a thing, overnight, it has spread on the rivers and lakes." "Then apart from the rumors that You Jinwen borrowed the corpse to resurrect his soul and take revenge for his life, are there any other rumors?" Chu Qing'an asked.

"Yes...... But there is another way of saying it. Xiao Er held his head high and thought for a while before he said slowly, "It seems that there are rumors that the disciples of the Tianyi Camp have found a blood-stained golden feather in the Northern Sword Sect. "Golden Feather, what Golden Feather?" Dao Xueke's expression became more and more nervous, and bursts of sweat began to break out on his forehead.

"I don't know much, it seems to be a hidden weapon, or maybe it's just an ordinary golden feather. Xiao Er replied with confidence. But Dao Xueke was like being struck by lightning, his face was pale, sweat was like pulp, he staggered backwards, and almost fell, but fortunately Chu Qingan supported him. When Xiao Er saw Dao Xueke like this, he was afraid in his heart, so he asked tremblingly, "...... Can I go back......"

Chu Qingan smiled and said, "Little brother, please go back, thank you little brother." After the little two slipped back into the inn, Chu Qing'an hugged Dao Xueke's left arm tightly, frowned slightly, and asked with concern: "Brother Xue, what's wrong?" Dao Xueke said in a panic: "Jin Yu...... Jin Yu is Xiaoli's secret weapon, the only one in the world......"

"How can this be?" Chu Qing'an was shocked when he heard this, and his tongue couldn't fall, but when he thought about it, Rao Mengli didn't know where he was, and he didn't know if Luo Baiyi had already found Rao Mengli's whereabouts at this time, "With Xiaoli's martial arts, it is impossible to destroy the Northern Sword Sect." It must have been misinformation. ”

"Yes, yes...... Xiaoli should be by Baiyi's side at this time, and she won't run around. When Dao Xueke said this, he sighed in his heart again, and he was extremely uneasy. But Dao Xueke was still worried: "But the rumors on the rivers and lakes are never groundless, if she hadn't been to the Northern Sword Sect, how could anyone suddenly find Jin Yu there......"

Chu Qing'an was also in a state of confusion at this time, his mind was full of mush, and he didn't know how to enlighten him, so he had to comfort: "The world is so big, maybe it's a secret weapon of another family, it's just a little similar...... Or maybe Xiaoli accidentally lost the golden feather and was picked up by others, so maybe she took the blame...... Brother Xue, don't think about it......"

"But except for Xiaoli's use, the golden feather has never been seen on the rivers and lakes. No way...... I can't let her go...... Qing'an, I hope you can understand, he is my younger sister who grew up together after leaving Kexue Villa, just like my relatives......" "Brother Xue doesn't need to say much, I understand myself......" Chu Qing'an's eyes were full of tears, but he could also understand Dao Xueke's mood at this time.

thinks that the two of them almost broke off at the beginning, but thanks to Xiaoli's enlightenment and matchmaking, the two of them can come to this day. Chu Qing'an also regards her as her dearest and favorite little sister, and now that Rao Mengli's whereabouts are unknown, she is also worried. Dao Xueke said eagerly: "Let's hurry up, go to Anhuai Mansion as soon as possible and meet with Senior Sister, and I will feel at ease when I see Xiaoli." ”

Chu Qing'an couldn't break it, and seeing him hurriedly walking towards the stable, it was also worth sighing lightly to keep up with the footsteps. The two untied the reins, turned over and got on their horses, and the flying horse ran eastward, Chu Qingan only prayed silently in his heart: "I hope Senior Sister Liu has found Xiaoli, don't have an accident, 10 million, 10 million." ”

In the blink of an eye, the figures of the two disappeared into the smoke and dust.

At the same time, Liu Yuanjun and the others, who had rested all night, also heard about this legend, and when they mentioned the matter of the golden feather, Luo Baiyi was extremely resolute, and shook his head again and again: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Xiaoli is my own sister, I know her! With her martial arts, it is impossible to kill the Dragon and Tiger Villa, not to mention that she is kind-hearted, how can she be so cruel? Someone must have framed her!"
