Chapter 243: Well Water Does Not Interfere with River Water
Xiu Zheng shook his head and said: I knew that your kid must know something! Sure enough, the head of the analysis is the Dao! Dou Ciyou said: Fat man, you have no knowledge, don't talk nonsense. Regarding the record of "Xuanqi", we really have it in the vast classics of Taixuanzong. However, I'm also curious, how did Senior Brother Xinghe determine it?
See Shen Dao: I think, I'm afraid it has something to do with Cihang Pudu's mantra.
Xiu Zhen sighed and said, "That's right! Aren't the first four forms of Cihang's Nine Styles Xuanming, Xuankong, Xuanling, and Xuanqing?
Jianxian said: Senior brother, what should we do next?
Eggs cannot be packed in a basket. So, let's split heads. Not yet, though. We have to find people first. When he spoke, Dugu Hexuan chose the east, walked on foot, and continued: From now on, we must do our best to hide our strength. I think the key to this, you can figure it out.
Xiu Zheng caught up and said, "Why do you want to go east?"
Because that's the direction in which the sun rises! Dugu Hexuan smiled and said: The sun brings light to the world. So, in the direction of the rising sun, there will be more good luck.
Eight people gossiped, talking and talking as they went.
The wilderness is long and there is no end in sight. When the eight of them determined that it was a wide enough wilderness, they flew with Edgeworth. About three hours later, Dugu Hexuan at the front quietly landed and stealthily entered the grass. Seven people approached behind him.
Dou Ciyou said in a low voice: Senior brother, what did you find?
There was a sound ten miles away, and we had to walk to it.
Xiu Zheng looked at Dou Ciyou indifferently and said, "Tsk, have you cultivated your kung fu to this point?"
Shh~ Dugu Hexuan signaled everyone to be quiet, gently pressed the wolf, and let it lie in the grass. After a while, the wheezing stopped. A man and a woman began to speak.
The woman said: Brother Qing, you are going to the "Heavenly Sin Xuanmen", and I am going to the "Elf Xuanmen". It will be at least ten years before we can see each other. Don't forget me, get along with other women.
Dou Ciyou answered in a low voice: Women are naïve! They have already given away their most precious things cheaply, and what capital do they have to make promises to others!
Xiu Zheng said in a low voice: Senior Brother Dou, why don't you go over and remind her?
Dou Ciyou glared and said: Fart!
Woman's Dao: Since the existence of the Thirty-six Xuanmen, it has always been a disciple once every ten years, and it has never changed. This year, I don't know what happened, but I made an exception to open the mountain door to accept disciples. We must not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The man said: The news I heard is that the spiritual veins where the thirty-six Xuanmen are located are being depleted at an accelerated pace. A large number of people are needed to go to remote areas to collect spirit stones in order to maintain the foundation of each Xuanmen. Therefore, the Thirty-six Xuanmen had to act in this way.
The woman sighed and said, "Brother Qing...... Let's go. To rush to Tianhong City, it will take at least ten days to travel. Don't miss the day.
After a while, the man and woman got up and left.
Dugu Hexuan glanced at him and said: Thirty-six Xuanmen, open the mountain gate to accept apprentices. Sure enough, this is also a realm with monks.
Dugu Hexuan decisively said: I didn't say it, we split up and went to Tianhong City. Since there are thirty-six Xuanmen, it should not be a problem for one of us to enter one Xuanmen.
What nonsense? Xiu Zheng interrupted: You didn't hear the dog man and woman say that it will take at least ten years to enter different Xuanmen and meet again. Don't say you really want to stay here for 10 years.
Dou Ciyou sighed and said: Anyway, I don't care, I want to be with Senior Brother Xinghe. When he said it, he threw a wink and said: Good brother, if you want to die, you have to die together, right?
See Shendao: Senior brother, don't you want to hurry?
Dugu Hexuan shook his hand and said: Senior brother, we have the most critical information, and the next thing is not in a hurry. The ten-day journey of the man and woman, I estimate that we will travel for a maximum of one day.
Boyodao: So, Senior Brother means that we are in a hurry at night?
Dugu Hexuan smiled mysteriously, his left palm suddenly pressed on the ground, and he gently pulled back, only to see a commotion in the grass. It actually brought out a beggar old man. Dou Ciyou reacted quickly, pulled out the fairy sword with a swoop, put it on the old man's neck, and stared at him viciously.
The old man didn't speak, just looked at eight people, a werewolf.
Xiu Zheng asked, "Old man, what kind of place is this?"
Dugu Hexuan said: He is a mute! I think he has something to do with the previous pair of men and women! As he spoke, he handed the old man three spirit stones, made a dumb gesture, and asked him to leave.
As soon as Dou Ciyou's sword left his neck, the old man rolled on the spot and disappeared into the grass, and he couldn't help but sigh and said: This old man's skills are not weak, why let him go?
I guess this old man is a professional killer. He has something to do, and he doesn't hurt us. It is useless to kill. Besides, I'm sure he'll come back. Dugu Hexuan closed his eyes and said slowly: According to the footsteps, the man should have walked out of Sanlidi. His life is probably only one mile away.
About half an hour later, there was a slight sound in the grass, and the old man reappeared in front of everyone.
Are you from the back mountain? The old man suddenly spoke, and he was so shocked that Xiu Zheng and Dou Ciyou jumped up, and he sent the fairy sword out of its sheath.
We are Gaoshan people, we came here to play, and we got lost! Dugu Hexuan replied casually, attracting cultivation and seeing the depths, but I don't know why.
The old man nodded, tore off the rotten clothes on his body, took off the fluffy grass on his head, and suddenly became an old man who looked like an outsider, and said: Everyone does not interfere with river water. I can get you out of here. 120
The old man's meaning is very clear, what you see today, it is best to pretend not to see it. Dugu Hexuan understood and nodded his head in promise.
The old man said: You come with me!
Dugu Hexuan answered, turned over, took the wolf, and followed the old man.
The old man was familiar with the environment here, walked on the path, quickly walked out of the wilderness, climbed over two more hills, and after reaching the third mountain, pointed to a wide road under the mountain in front of him, and said: That road is the avenue leading to Tianhong City. With that, he walked towards a small path.
Xiu Dao: This old man is not bad!
Dugu Hexuan walked slowly, leaned on the mountain to watch the sky, and muttered: It's dark, demons and monsters are easy to haunt!
Jianshen heard the meaning of the words, and said: Senior brother, do you mean that someone will sneak attack us?
Dugu Hexuan nodded and said: The old man who led the way just now is the second old man to appear. He took us to this road, which I think is likely to be a dead-end road. However, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, we have to play a trick and disappear into the night!
Dou Ciyou said: We are not ghosts, why did we disappear into the night?
Escape!
Coincidentally, at the same time, a strong wind suddenly blew on the mountain road. Then, as if blown away by the wind, the hurried people disappeared without a trace. After a while, dozens of people gathered at both ends of the mountain road.
In the dark night, an old voice said: "Old eight, what's the matter?"
No one responded. The old man's voice became more and more impatient, and he scolded: "A bunch of waste!
A person suddenly came to report and said: "The owner of the village, the eighth master has been stunned, his mouth can't speak, his eyes can't see, and his ears can't hear. Has been sent to the cottage by the brothers for treatment?
The old voice roared: "Old Nine, go quickly, intercept the eighth girl."
With a roar of rage, dozens of people disappeared into the night like ghosts. The next moment, eight people and one werewolf appeared here.
Cultivator: Senior brother, when did you poison it? Why didn't I find out at all?
If we can find out, I guess the old man will find out too!
Dou Ciyou said: What should I do? Do you want to go to the bandits' den to see the excitement?
Dugu Hexuan said: We need to hurry!
Zhiheng Dao: Senior brother, if they leak our whereabouts, it will be difficult to do!
Don't worry! That old man named Lao Ba is enough to kill all these people!
Why?
I guess the man must be the son of the old man who roared just now, and probably the only son.
Xiu Dao: You didn't poison it?
Dark people always think of everyone more darkly!
Dugu Hexuan's sword was volleyed in the air, flying with the wolf. An hour later, in a place on the edge of the wilderness, smoke billowed and fire rose to the sky. The group looked back for a moment and moved on.
Dugu Hexuan said: If I guess correctly, we will meet the old man in Tianhong City!
Dou Ciyou said: It seems that you and that old man are all the way!
I think whether we can successfully enter a certain Xuanmen, I am afraid that we will have to rely on the help of the old man!
The tall and majestic city wall, thousands of miles long, ten thousand feet high, from west to east, lies between heaven and earth. The walls were bright red and demonic, smeared with strange skull runes, like bones and blood.
On the city wall, every hundred zhang stood a guardian giant, about three zhang high, with a long pigtail combed on his huge bald head, his eyes were looking straight ahead, his mouth was spitting red mist, his chest was open, and he was holding a giant hammer. From a distance, it looks more like a guardian statue.
Under the city walls, it was bustling and full of people. The crowd was like a wave, spreading outward in circles, and in front of the smallest circle inside was the only gate under the city walls.
Thirty-six tables were set up in front of the city gates, each with a man dressed in a different color. At the end of the day, not many people dared to approach the table. But if someone is allowed to enter the city gate, it will suddenly become the most eye-catching existence.
At the time of the unitary, an old man who looked like an outsider, with two young girls with flowers and branches, approached a table. Soon, they were allowed to enter the city gates. The crowd was excited and loud.
In the northwest corner of the surging crowd, eight eyes went straight to the old man and disappeared into the city gate.
It's getting dark. We still have to find a place to settle down first. Dugu Hexuan said in a low voice: This Tianhong City is very strange. We can't venture in until we figure it out. For now, we have to split up and figure out what's outside the gates. It's not too late to enter the city again.
Dou Ciyou said: This can only be the case! According to my observation, there are countless small towns outside the city wall, near or far, and if you want to understand them clearly, I am afraid that it will take some effort! Why don't we meet again in ten days?
