Chapter 11 The Fairy Sword in White
Yi Dingjia looked up, but saw that at this time the dark clouds covered the moon, there was no sound, only the light whistling of the mountain wind through the corridor of the hall, so he walked quickly into the front hall, came to the bookcase, took out the fire fold he carried, lit the candlestick, took a few pieces of rice paper, but it was crumpled into a ball, put it in the cuffs, and looked at no one outside the hall, so he picked up the inkstone Qiao Mo Qiao and grinded it, but his eyes have been watching the movement outside the hall.
Finally, a team of red-clothed monks with torches in their hands patrolled over. Yi Dingjia smiled, bent down and came to the outside of the hall, glanced twice, and finally found the place where the wood waste was piled up, walked over quickly, stuffed the kneaded paper ball under the sawdust, looked around, shook his hand and took out the fire fold, lit the paper ball, turned around and ran back to the hall quickly, closed the temple door, returned to the bookcase and continued to pretend to study ink.
The fire is still small at the beginning, but there is a lot of waste wood chips here, with the mountain wind, it will not work for a while, only listen to the sound of "Teng", it will burn violently, and suddenly the fire outside the hall will soar into the sky.
And above the eaves above the main hall, a person dressed as a scholar appeared, looked down at the firelight, nodded slightly, and then disappeared.
After a while, the shouts in the temple were loud, and the red-clothed monks and craftsmen were all mixed together, making a mess, carrying water to fight the fire, and it was noisy.
Yi Dingjia saw the situation, took the opportunity to slip in the direction of the mountain gate when he came during the day, who knew that he had just come to the entrance of the mountain gate, and he had not yet had time to identify the direction, but when he heard the crowd in front of him, he suddenly walked out of a medium-sized monk from the intersection on the left, with a square face and a wide mouth, a pair of snake eyes under a pair of thick eyebrows, revealing a fierce light, holding a Zen staff, wearing a colorful robe, and a string of skulls on his chest to make Buddhist beads, surrounded by many red-clothed monks, all the way.
The monk took a few steps, paused, and said to the red-clothed monk beside him: "You two are here to guard, and no outsiders are allowed to enter, and the others will follow me to the Fuhu Palace." ”
Everyone should claim that it was, a group of people and horses with torches, along the road, walked briskly in the direction of the Fuhu Palace.
Yi Dingjia saw the opportunity to dodge, and slipped along the middle intersection to the inside without having time to think, originally thought that this middle courtyard should have the same majestic hall building as the Fuhu Hall on the right, but before he walked a few feet away, he saw a simple wooden house, but it was brightly lit.
Yi Dingjia wandered outside for a while, found nothing else, looked down and thought about it, or approached the wooden house, squatted down to look inside, but saw a tall middle-aged man sitting next to the bookcase, this person was wearing a black robe, wearing a copper-colored mask on his face, covering the upper half of his face, and a pair of cold eyes behind the mask, as if shooting out two evil breaths, which made people feel creepy, as if they had been stabbed.
Outside the window, Yi Dingjia shivered, and the middle-aged man seemed to sense that there was someone outside the window, but he ignored it at all and continued to read and flip through the books.
Yi Dingjia squatted, slowly moved to the back of the house, turned the wooden house, and finally saw a slightly larger building, with the words "Rebirth Palace" hanging on the lintel, and it was pitch black inside, without any lights. After approaching, I broke the window paper, looked inside for a long time, and couldn't see anything inside, I squatted there and listened for a long time, except for the noisy people in the direction of the Fuhu Palace, there was silence around, I thought about it and thought, and simply pushed the door with my hand.
"Squeak", the door opened in response, and it sounded a little weird at this time.
Yi Dingjia didn't think about it, he flashed in quickly, looked back and looked outside, and then closed the door. Turning around and groping in the house for a long time, except for the smell of rancidity, there was nothing to see, thinking that this should be an empty house, there should be no gold and silver treasures, otherwise there will be someone guarding the door, just thinking so, not Judas disappointed.
Suddenly, far away from him, a pair of red lights appeared, the size of a chicken egg, which was very eye-catching in such a dark environment, as bright as a jewel. Yi Dingjia was shocked in his heart, meditating on what kind of treasure it was, and shining here. Then his greed soared, and even his breathing became much heavier.
Instantly, seeing many pairs of "rubies" around the pair of red lights, Yi Dingjia was overjoyed, and no longer thought about it, and opened his arms to touch it.
"Roar",
A low roar, like a wild beast, made people's hair stand on end and send chills down their spine, followed by a series of roars of "roar" and "roar", as if there were dozens of beasts in this room, and as the cry sounded, those "rubies" began to slowly move towards the Yi Dingjia.
"Isn't there some monster in this room" Thinking like this, Yi Dingjia was frightened into a cold sweat, his clothes were wet, and he wanted to run, but his legs and feet were as weak as bones, and he fell to the ground.
In the midst of this crisis, a faint voice came from my ears: "Cover your mouth and nose and hold your breath, otherwise your life will not be guaranteed." The voice seemed familiar, but he didn't have time to think about it in a trance, Yi Dingjia hurriedly held his breath and covered his mouth to do so.
At this time, the "rubies" had gradually gathered together, and they let out a low roar and heavy breathing as they moved. Strange as it sounds, after a few moments, the roar subsided, the "ruby" diminished, and the room became pitch black again.
Seeing this, Yi Dingjia held his breath, crawled to the door, raised his hand and gently pushed the door open, and turned around to see that there was no movement in the room, so he escaped with lightning speed.
A mountain breeze blew in his face, Yi Dingjia suddenly felt as if he was reborn, gulping greedily into the outside air, and while he was wheezing, he heard another voice in his ears: "Hold on to this rope and leave quickly." Carefully identify that it was the person who had saved himself in the room just now, and as soon as the words fell, he saw a black rope hanging down in the dark night sky, and at this time he couldn't help himself, so he grabbed the rope according to his words.
The rope was like a living thing, and after grasping it by itself, it slowly rose and jumped up the wall, and when you look back at it, you can see the whole picture of the double-faced temple. Originally, after the temple entered the mountain gate, it was divided into three large courtyards, the courtyard on the right side is the three-entry courtyard dominated by the Fuhu Palace, the front yard is a temporary studio, the middle is the Fuhu Palace, the backyard is the firewood room where they and Feng Shuzhu live The courtyard on the left side is composed of two halls before and after, and there are dozens of single-storey houses scattered around, the front hall of this courtyard is the largest hall of the double-faced temple, and it seems to be the main hall of the temple, that is, the place where a string of skull monks hang on the chest, and the apse is also similar in size to the Fuhu Palace, and there are dozens of red-clothed monks patrolling back and forth with sticks outside the hall, which is exactly what he sees in the eyes of the compass. Although the three large courtyards are a mountain gate, but they are not connected with each other, there are stone walls up to zhang Xu in the middle to separate, I think it is the courtyard on the left side of the initial construction, and then because the population in the temple increases, it has been expanded twice.
In a trance, he was led by a rope across the stone wall back to the firewood room, and after slowly lowering, the rope disappeared all at once. Yi Dingjia looked at the night sky and was stunned for a long time, and suddenly realized that he was only separated from the courtyard next door by a stone wall, thinking about what he did tonight, with a wry smile on his face, he turned around and saw the lights of the firewood room next door on, so he came to the window again, and looked inside through the window paper that he opened when he left, only to see that Feng Shuzhu was still closing his eyes and recuperating, nothing unusual, and faintly felt that the person who saved him was this scholar, and wanted to knock on the door to thank him, but he was afraid of making a mistake.
Yi Dingjia was hesitating, suddenly heard the direction of the Fuhu Hall has changed from a noisy sound to a shout, faintly heard someone shouting to catch the spy, his heart was shocked, and he hurriedly returned to his firewood room, so frightened that the lamp did not dare to light it, leaned on the firewood stack, listened quietly, and then gradually the shouting outside subsided, and his heart was only slightly wider, and suddenly he heard the sound of screams again and again, and occasionally mixed with the sound of blade collision, so frightened that his whole body trembled, and he did not dare to move.
Hearing the "squeak" of the chai door next door, Yi Dingjia understood that it was Feng Shuzhu who heard the sound of the fight and walked out, and he also wanted to see what was going on, but he remembered all the horrors tonight, and finally gave up.
Outside the window, Feng Shuzhu stood under the eaves, glanced at Yi Dingjia's room, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, his figure shook, and he came to the front yard next to the Fuhu Palace, hidden behind the pillar in front of the hall, and looked into the field.
I saw dozens of hideous-looking red-clothed monks, who were fighting around a white-clothed woman with a beautiful appearance, the woman in white combed her fringed hair, her skin was as white as snow, her face was as cold as frost, and she was holding a fairy sword, and the hilt of the sword was engraved with a flower, which was the woman she met by chance on the mountains and rivers outside the square that day.
The woman in white is light, agile as water, her steps are even more unpredictable, the green silk is flying with her figure, and her clothes are accompanied by a sword, like a fairy of the Nine Heavens falling into the mortal dust, which makes people fascinated.
Looking at its sword momentum like water, slow and urgent, unpredictable, and agile, making the opponent elusive, the slightest carelessness will hit the sword, so when people feel love and pity, there is still a little awe.
With a few screams, a few more red-clothed monks fell to the ground, groaning in pain, and the second master, who was originally watching the battle on the side, could no longer hold his breath and shouted: "Wait for you to retreat, let me come and capture her." ”
When the red-clothed monks heard this, they stepped back one after another, giving way to the venue, and as soon as the iron-headed Arhat's voice fell, they sacrificed the crescent shovel in their hands, which weighed more than a few hundred catties, and pressed down on the woman in white with the wind.
The woman in white looked pale when she heard the sound, raised her beautiful eyes and looked up, her steps changed, she stepped back a few feet, the fairy sword in her hand shook, and a ray of light rolled up, and the momentum was like a shocking wave in the river, and she greeted it upward.
The crescent moon shovel seemed to be incomparably powerful, but as soon as Fang came into contact with that brilliance, he quickly flew back, and crashed into the iron-headed Arhat who had no time to dodge.
Hearing only the sound of "poof", the crescent shovel fell to the ground, the iron-headed Arhat showed a painful look on his face, and with a "poof" sound, a mouthful of blood mist spurted out and fell to the ground.
The monks were frightened, hurriedly stepped forward to help, the iron-headed Arhat stretched out his hand to signal not to move, and then looked at the field, the woman in white had disappeared, but left the courtyard full of fragrance and a trace of fragrance, and a sword in the night sky swept away.
When Feng Shuzhu saw this, his eyes were full of admiration, he nodded lightly, and whispered in his mouth: "Water Moon Sword Technique." After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the firewood room.
Behind him, there was another group of red-clothed monks, in the middle of which were surrounded by monks with a string of skulls on their chests, and they rushed towards them like a fierce god. The monk stood still, raised his eyes and saw that there was a mess in front of him, the iron-headed Arhat was injured on the ground, unable to speak, and the little monk under his command was also injured on the ground, and then because of this, he had just caught a fire before, and suddenly his face turned blue with anger, and he shouted to the people around him: "Carry back the second master and the injured brothers, and invite the third master to the double-faced Buddha hall to discuss matters." After speaking, he turned around and left, and the surrounding people waited for the action.
Inside the double-sided Buddha hall.
The iron-headed Arhat was lying on the Arhat bed with his eyes closed, the pain on his face was slightly relieved, a middle-aged man in a black robe and a half-sided copper mask was taking his pulse, and a monk with a skull on his chest was sitting next to him.
The man in the bronze mask gently put back the arm of the iron-headed Arhat, nodded slightly, and turned around.
The monk with a skull on the side said with concern: "Third brother, how is the second brother's injury?"
The man in the bronze mask said slowly: "The second brother's injury is okay for the time being, it's nothing more than being shocked and hurting his internal organs, and he can rest for a few days." ”
When the iron-headed arhat of the second boss heard this, he opened his eyes and said weakly: "Don't worry, big brother, I'm fine, but I was careless and was injured by that woman." ”
When the big boss heard this, he shook the skull on his chest and sighed: "You, you can't change this problem, and you will be fascinated when you see a woman." The iron-headed arhat was speechless, and then said: "I don't know who hurt the second brother?"
The man in the bronze mask pondered for a moment and said, "It should be someone from the Water Moon Palace." ”
When the iron-headed arhat heard this, he exclaimed: "Water Moon Palace?" After speaking, he looked at the big boss and said: "Big brother, the brothers who patrolled the mountain a few days ago were injured by the Taoist priest of Guiyunguan, and this Water Moon Palace came to the door again, and the three major factions today are just behind the Kongjue Temple." ”
The big boss snorted coldly: "Before my double-faced Buddha debuted, I had heard the names of the three factions for a long time, and I wanted to meet him for a while. ”
The iron-headed arhat seemed to be very familiar with the wind and the rudder, and immediately changed his face, and said excitedly: "It seems that my three brothers want to fight for a place here, and it is inevitable that there will be a fierce battle." ”
The man in the bronze mask pondered for a long time, and said, "At present, with our strength, it is not enough to fight against the three factions, so we must not let them join forces here." ”
Hearing this, the double-faced Buddha of the big boss squinted his eyes and thought about it, and said: "What the third brother said makes sense, today's righteous path through the Demon Sect's shadow confusion battle, the strength is greatly damaged, but Yu Wei is still not to be underestimated," paused, and then said: "I don't know what the third brother's tricks are?"
When the man in the bronze mask heard the words "Demon Sect Shadow Confusion", his body seemed to be shocked, but he immediately said: "Wai Wei to save Zhao." ”
"Wai Wei to save Zhao?" the double-faced Buddha and the iron-headed Arhat glanced at each other and said in surprise at the same time.
"That's right, the new forces of the Demon Dao, the Jiuli Chifang of the intermittent island attacked Guiyunguan. The man in the brass mask spoke in a calm tone, but two hateful streaks shot out of his eyes.
"Although Jiuli Chifang is located in a domain, his strength is indeed extraordinary, and he claims to be a new generation of Demon Sect, and he has long wanted to swallow the Three Realms, so how can he obey our orders?"
The man in the bronze mask said: "The closest immortal sect to Interrupted Island is Guiyunguan, and if Guiyunguan uses its strength to attack us this time, its base camp will definitely be empty, as long as this news is released to Jiuli Chifang, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he will definitely not give up." ”
When the two-faced Buddha heard this, he said with a happy face: "Good idea, the third brother is really resourceful,...... But...... ,”
"What's your doubt, big brother?" said the masked man
The Double-Faced Buddha pondered for a moment and said, "You can use this strategy to solve the Guiyun Temple, but the remaining Kongjue Temple and Water Moon Palace are also not to be underestimated. ”
The masked man seemed to smile, and said: "Big brother is too worried, the Water Moon Palace claims that the Three Realms Forbidden Land has been closed for a hundred years, and it has never asked about the world, this time the disciples of the Water Moon Palace hit the mountain gate, I think it is related to the news that the Demon Sect's shadow broke through the ground, it should be just to find out the news, as long as we don't hurt its disciples, the Water Moon Palace will not deal with us." ”
The iron-headed arhat's face sank, and he seemed to be angry: "So tonight, when the woman was fighting with me, the third brother stood by and watched. ”
The masked man smiled slightly and said, "The second brother is known as an iron-headed arhat, if it weren't for the carelessness, how could the woman hurt you." ”
When the iron-headed arhat heard this, his neck was raised, his face was proud, and he said: "This is the truth, the next time I meet her, the Sprinkle family will definitely capture her alive." ”
The two-faced Buddha smiled and said: "The second brother is talking big again, when did you see a woman, you were not injured" and then changed the conversation and said: "These two factions have dealt with it, but I don't know what the third brother plans to do with the Kongjue Temple." ”
The man wearing the mask took a deep breath and said: "Kongjue Temple is the only place we must pass through to enter the Central Plains, this time it must be hit hard, judging from the news sent back, there are less than 100 sword immortals in Kongjue Temple, and the old thief will definitely stay in Fangwai Mountain, and the remaining disciples are not to be afraid." ”
"Okay!" the Double-Faced Buddha shouted loudly, and said happily: "Then bother the third brother, and arrange everything as soon as possible." ”
The masked man nodded, and continued: "It will take some time to go to Interrupted Island this time, and Tianluo Jing will stay on the mountain to help the eldest brother, but please remember that Zishi and Shen Shi correspond to the opening of the door of the departure of the birth, so as not to hurt the brothers who enter and exit." ”
The Double-Faced Buddha nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "But I don't know how long it will take for the third brother to go?"
The man wearing the bronze mask said in a deep voice: "Ten days at most, three days at least, before the arrival of a large number of Sword Immortals in the Void Jue Temple, the younger brother must rush back." ”
When the double-faced Buddha heard this, he said with a smile: "Then there is the third brother Lao, you have to be more careful along the way." ”
The masked man nodded slightly, turned around and went out.
After watching his back disappear outside the door, the iron-headed Arhat turned his head to the double-faced Buddha and said, "Big brother, this Demon Dao Faun makes Yan Shutian and you and me not the same family, is it really credible?"
The double-faced Buddha also withdrew his gaze from outside the door and said with a smile: "Why did the second brother say this?"
The iron-headed arhat stared, shook his head, and said with an exaggerated expression: "What if he doesn't come back?"
The double-faced Buddha laughed and said, "Second brother, are you stupid, this Demon Dao Faun made Yan Shutian thoughtful and calm, he had already thought that you and I had this concern, so he deliberately left the personal magic weapon Tianluo Mirror." ”
The iron-headed arhat suddenly realized, touched his bald head and said, "Yes, no matter what, he won't drop this magic weapon." ”
The Double-Faced Buddha smiled strangely and said: "What's more, this Yan Shutian fought in the south and north with the Demon Sect back then, and his Taoism is extraordinary, and he is even more well-informed, if you and my brother really want to break out of the world, you still need to make more use of this talent." ”
The iron-headed arhat was stunned and smiled: "It's still the eldest brother who thinks about Zhou Xiang, but the three realms are all rumored that the shadow confusion will break out of the ground, this demon Dao Faun made Yan Shutian be the old department of the shadow confusion, can he still be with us at that time?"
The two-faced arhat said with a smile: "This is another reason why I have to reuse him all the time, when the shadow bewitches the primordial god breaks out of the ground, his ability is very weak, if he takes the opportunity to absorb his primordial god, he can become a generation of demon sects." ”
When the iron-headed arhat heard this, his face was overjoyed, and he continued with great interest: "Then the eldest brother can command the demons in the world, and I am also one person under ten thousand people." ”
The Double-Faced Buddha smiled slightly, nodded and said, "So, for now, we still have to be kind to this person, not to mention that the situation he just analyzed is very correct, no matter what, we will eventually have a bloody battle with the Empty Awakening Temple." The two-faced Buddha clenched his fists as he spoke, his eyes showing a fierce light, as if he had changed into a different person.
Later, the double-faced Buddha's face returned to normal and asked, "By the way, second brother, how is the situation of those slaves?"
The iron-headed arhat said: "At present, there are more than thirty stored in the Rebirth Palace, but there is a lot of difference from the previous magic power. ”
The Double-Faced Buddha nodded and said, "After all, the previous body had some Taoism, but as long as there are enough of them, they can also form combat power." When you're healed, you're going to speed up the construction of the temple, and then those craftsmen ...... ," he said, making a knife slashing motion.
The iron-headed arhat said with joy in his eyes: "Little brother understands. ”
The double-faced Buddha suddenly turned pale again, looked at the iron-headed Arhat and said: "From now on, you can't get close to women, so as not to delay the business, and arrange more people to go down the mountain to touch the surrounding situation." ”
Seeing that the iron-headed Arhat reluctantly said "um", the Double-Faced Buddha shook his head and said, "You can rest for the time being, and I will take someone to check the situation in the mountain." After speaking, he turned around and went out, and then the sound of the double-faced Buddha summoning his subordinates to patrol the mountain came from outside the hall.
When the iron-headed Arhat heard his eldest brother go away, he called out to the monk on duty outside the temple gate and passed the tall and short monks in.
The two of them asked what was going on with a smile on their faces, and the iron-headed Arhat had an impatient expression on his face, and said, "You two go down the mountain quickly, feel the situation outside the mountain, and don't do much, go and return quickly." ”
The two said yes again and again, and after speaking, the short red-clothed monk squeezed a smile again, and said: "There is one more thing for the small one, and the second one should be in charge." ”
The iron-headed Arhat glanced at the short red-clothed monk and said, "What's the matter?"
The short red-clothed monk said: "It's the portrait that the little one brought over yesterday, I don't know what the second master thinks?"
When the iron-headed arhat heard this, the unhappiness on his face was swept away, and he nodded again and again: "That scholar's painting is really good." ”
The short red-clothed monk immediately continued: "Did the second master call him over to paint?"
The iron-headed arhat raised his eyebrows and said sharply: "Are you not squeezed by the door, how can the Sprinkle family paint like this now?"
With a "snap", the tall red-clothed monk slapped the short monk's bald head, and said with a smile on his face: "How can you show the mighty martial arts of the second master at this time, it's better to talk about it later, right, the second master?"
The iron-headed Arhat looked tired, closed his eyes and nodded, waving his hand to signal them to go out.
