Chapter 4, The Autumn Night is Long
() After Liu Qianyun silently recited Ye Linfeng's name a few times in his heart, he nodded and said, "My subordinates know what to do!"
Xiao Tianyu waved his hand, and Liu Qianyun retreated. In the huge Xuanming Sect main altar, only Xiao Tianyu was left alone. He stood up suddenly, looked into the shadows in the northeast corner, a warm smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said softly, "What are you doing hiding there alone?"
"Ahh
Xiao Tianyu smiled slightly, and said, "Have you forgotten that when I was catching fish before, I taught you the Xuanming Sect's mental method, the 'Hidden Six Senses'? ”
Xu Lan smiled slightly and said, "The sentence I asked just now is nonsense." ”
Xiao Tianyu was puzzled. Xu Lanwei replied: "You are the leader of the Xuanming Sect, a first-class master in the rivers and lakes, if even I can't find out, wouldn't it be a joke." ”
Xiao Tianyu nodded and asked, "What are you hiding there for?" Why didn't you come out just now?"
"This. Xu Lanwei suddenly looked embarrassed, rolled his eyes, and said, "Just now I saw you discussing the affairs of the sect with Liu and the hall master, and I was afraid of disturbing you, so I was embarrassed to come out." ”
Xiao Tianyu saw that she looked flustered, knowing that she was lying, he smiled slightly, and said, "There are only you and me here, just say anything, why are you polite to me?"
Xu Lan smiled slightly and said, "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that I was a little scared when I saw the appearance of Hall Master Liu, and I didn't dare to see him." ”
Xiao Tianyu suddenly burst out laughing when he heard this. Indeed, among these high-level members of the Xuanming Sect, whether it is Xiao Tianyu, or the four protectors, the masters of each hall, the seven envoys of the seventh hall, etc., although they are not suave, they can be regarded as a talent. But Liu Qianyun is incompatible with this group of people in terms of image and style of doing things. Xiao Tianyu is handsome, Xu Zhenhua is heroic, Zhang Xiaoyuan is gentle, Yuan Zhenbei is high, Song Baichuan is humble, and even the six envoys at the seventh hall have their own places that Xu Lanwei can appreciate. Only this Liu Qianyun is cold and fierce, with a disheveled hair and a scar on his face. When Xu Lanwei saw him for the first time, he was so frightened that he couldn't speak. If it weren't for Xiao Tianyu and them by their side, Xu Lanwei would have fainted in fright.
Seeing Xiao Tianyu smiling so happily, Xu Lanwei raised his eyebrows and shouted, "What are you laughing at?"
Xiao Tianyu said: "I am laughing at the girl Xu who used to bluff many chivalrous people in the rivers and lakes, and she is not afraid of heaven and earth, and there are even people who are afraid!"
Xu Lanwei remembered those "glorious deeds" on the bank of the Qinhuai River, and was satisfied, straightened his waist and said: "This time is different from the past, the Qinhuai River is my home, and those knights are all asking for my father, of course they should be more energetic in their own home." ”
Xiao Tianyu said: "This is also your home, you are not even afraid of me, why are you afraid of Hall Master Liu?"
Xu Lanwei looked around, and after making sure that there was no third person, he leaned into Xiao Tianyu's ear and whispered: "The appearance of the hall master is too terrifying, just like the old monster that my father scared me back then, as soon as I saw him, I remembered the old monster, of course I was scared!"
Xiao Tianyu smiled slightly, and said, "Hall Master Liu just looks a little hideous, but he is not a bad person, no, he just found you a thousand-year-old ginseng from Changbai Mountain." ”
"That's it!" Xu Lan nodded slightly, and suddenly asked again: "By the way, why did you find some ginseng snow lotus for me to eat? It's been so long since I came back from the North Pole, hasn't the cold on my body been removed?"
Xiao Tianyu looked outside and suddenly shouted, "It's not too early, it's time for our saintess to go back and rest." Let's go, I'll send you back to the Valley of the Gods. ”
Xu Lanwei saw that he didn't say anything, so he didn't ask any more, and the two of them walked out of the main altar of the Xuanming Sect one left and one right. As soon as he came out, the mountain wind struck, and Xu Lan was slightly cold, and his body trembled. Xiao Tianyu hurriedly took off his clothes and draped them on her.
"You're not too young, can you pay attention to yourself in the future, it's cold, can you wear more clothes to exhaust you?"
Xu Lan glanced at him slightly, and said: "You are so annoying, just shout here if you do something good, and you are afraid that others will not remember your kindness, right! Brother Yanfa will only do it, not say, it is ten thousand times better than you!"
Hearing Xu Lan mention Zhao Yanfa slightly, Xiao Tianyu's heart thumped, and he suddenly froze in place. Xu Lan was slightly curious, pushed him, and asked, "Hey, what's wrong with you?"
Xiao Tianyu came back to his senses, shook his head, and continued to walk forward. Just walked a few steps, only to see the fire not far away, looking at the direction and distance is probably the location of the seventh hall entrance. Xiao Tianyu frowned, Xu Lanwei also saw the clue, and asked, "Is something wrong?"
Xiao Tianyu said: "That location is the seventh hall entrance, I'm afraid there is an invasion of foreign enemies." ”
Xu Lan was slightly startled and shouted, "Go and take a look, don't worry about me, I know the way myself." ”
Xiao Tianyu shook his head and said, "It's too late, it's not easy to walk from here to the Valley of the Immortals, I don't worry about you going back alone." Just leave it to the Lord of the Liu Hall and the six envoys to deal with, let's go. ”
Xu Lan shouted slightly: "If the enemy who comes here is very powerful, what if the Liu Hall Master and the six envoys can't deal with it?"
Xiao Tianyu shook his head and said, "If they can't even deal with this kind of waste, then what's the use of me asking them." Let's go back and rest. ”
Xu Lan couldn't resist him slightly, so he had to follow his mind and return to the Valley of the Immortals.
After arriving at the Valley of the Immortals, after Xiao Tianyu took care of Xu Lanwei and fell asleep, he gently closed the door of the room, and unleashed the "Shocking Cloud Sweeping Skill", and disappeared into the vast night.
......
At the entrance of the seventh hall, the flames soared into the sky. Liu Qianyun and the six envoys stood on the city wall, and behind them stood dozens of Xuanming Sect disciples. The scar on Liu Qianyun's face was even more terrifying under the firelight.
On the Vulcan Peak, more than a dozen figures came up one after another, all of them were strong and strong, holding long swords and big swords, with hideous faces, and they didn't look good.
Liu Qianyun frowned, shouted to stop everyone, and said, "Who are you?
Hearing only a whoosh, a black thing suddenly flew in the crowd, and it hit Liu Qianyun's door with a strong wind. Liu Qianyun pulled out his long sword and slashed it in front of him, only to see that in a flash of cold light, the black thing broke into two pieces and fell to the ground. By the light of the fire, it was a black swallow-shaped dart.
Liu Qianyun's six envoys behind each other unsheathed their blades, but they heard a handsome voice in the crowd: "It is worthy of being the 'Sword Demon' Liu Qianyun's hero, do you remember it below?"
Liu Qianyun followed the prestige, only to see a white-clothed man come out of the crowd, he held a long sword, looked at Liu Qianyun viciously, his eyes showed a fierce light, as if he had a deep hatred with him. Liu Qianyun looked at the appearance of the boy in white, thought for a while, and suddenly blurted out: "You are Song Zhenming, the son of Song Changqing of the Feixue Sect." ”
Song Zhen pulled out his long sword with a sigh, pointed at Liu Qianyun from afar, his eyes were full of tears, and shouted: "Liu Qianyun, you cold-blooded and ruthless devil, destroy my Feixue faction, and teach your ministry to return it today!"
Liu Qianyun's face did not change, looked at Song Zhenming, and said: "Didn't I tell you, after you improve your martial arts in ten years, you will come to me for revenge, and now you can't beat me!"
Song Zhenming scolded viciously: "You demon, the thought of killing you has always lingered in my mind." I can't wait ten years, I'm going to kill you now!"
Song Zhenming though a few days ago
went to Henan to find Zhao Yanfa. Zhao Yanfa also promised to ask for an explanation for his father and the disciples of the Feixue Sect. But Zhao Yanfa only posted a heroic post, but he was reluctant to go up to Qilian Mountain to confront Xiao Tianyu in person. Although Song Zhenming has mentioned it to Zhao Yanfa many times, Zhao Yanfa has always shirked it. Song Zhenming didn't know the reason, and thought that Zhao Yanfa was an embroidered pillow, and he was afraid of the strength of the Xuanming Sect and Xiao Tianyu.
The revenge of killing his father is not shared, and Song Zhenming can't wait any longer. So in the middle of the night, he secretly escaped and headed north, lobbying the heroes he met in the name of Zhao Yanfa along the way. Tell them what happened to them. There are still a lot of bloody men on the rivers and lakes, and many people are embarrassed after hearing what happened to him, and they also hate the Xuanming Sect to the core. Within a few days, he summoned more than a dozen martial arts masters, and he wanted to go to Huoshenfeng with him to take revenge.
Liu Qianyun glanced at the group of knights behind him, and didn't take them seriously. I'm afraid that one of the rabble can be dismissed by one altar master. Liu Qianyun was about to instruct the dragon to make Lin Xiao move, but he heard a voice coming:
"Hall Master Liu, where did your friend come from to visit my Vulcan Peak late at night?"
Xiao Tianyu's tall figure floated down to the city wall, black clothes like ink, cold and arrogant. Liu Qianyun and the six envoys and all the Xuanming Sect disciples bowed down one after another. Liu Qianyun replied: "Sect Master, the person who came is Song Zhenming, the son of Song Changqing, the head of the Changbai Mountain Feixue Sect outside the Guanwai. ”
"Oh?" Xiao Tianyu nodded, suddenly looked at Song Zhenming, and said, "But do you want to avenge the Lord of the Liu Hall for killing his father and destroying the door?"
Song Zhenming always heard others mention Xiao Tianyu before, only saying that he was a genius, cold-blooded and ruthless, and he was the number one master in the world. Unexpectedly, he was also a teenager of the same age as himself. Xiao Tianyu's cold gaze came, with a thick murderous aura, like two sharp swords, piercing straight into Song Zhenming's heart.
Song Zhenming's body trembled, and his limbs trembled involuntarily. Oh my God! What kind of eyes are there! Sharp as an eagle, cold-blooded as a wolf, and domineering as a tiger. The thick murderous aura penetrated through the internal organs, as if the whole person had fallen into an ice cellar. The cold was even more terrifying than the cold on Changbai Mountain. It's like the temperature of death!
After being stunned for a long time, Song Zhenming came back to his senses, and when he looked at the city wall again, Xiao Tianyu's figure was gone. He was in amazement, but he heard a bloody breath coming to his face, very thick, which made his stomach churn.
He turned around suddenly, only to see the dozen or so knights who had come with him fall to the ground in unison, bleeding to death. Xiao Tianyu stood in the middle of the corpse, his right hand with five fingers spread. Clusters of blood flowers pouring out of the seven orifices of more than a dozen knights were converging towards Xiao Tianyu's palm.
Song Zhenming had never seen such bloody and strange martial arts, and he was suddenly frightened and collapsed to the ground. The blood flower gradually condensed into a knife shape in Xiao Tianyu's palm, and the bloody aura rose to the sky, and Song Zhenming was disgusted again and again when he heard it.
Xiao Tianyu's expression was grim, and he slowly spoke: "Since you want to avenge your father, you must have come with the belief that you will die." I respect you, so I'll fight you this battle!"
Song Zhenming had long been frightened by Xiao Tianyu's evil and demonic martial arts, and he couldn't stand steadily, and it would be even more foolish to talk to Xiao Tianyu again. Xiao Tianyu walked towards him step by step, and the sound of footsteps sounded like a death knell ringing in his ears. Song Zhenming couldn't support it anymore, and collapsed to the ground with a bang, his body trembling uncontrollably, and his face was as pale as dirt.
Xiao Tianyu raised his right hand, and the big knife condensed with blood was even more bloody and terrifying under the reflection of the firelight! He waved his hand and slashed down, and the blood light exploded in an instant, turning into countless slender blood lines, rushing towards Song Zhenming's side. Song Zhenming only felt that the blood in front of him was dazzling, and the smell of fish became thicker and thicker.
At that moment, he finally understood how big a gap there was between him and Xiao Tianyu. Don't say it's yourself, even if it's your father, I'm afraid you won't be his opponent!
Between the blood and light, he suddenly remembered his father Song Changqing. I remembered that my father was angry because he couldn't tie the horse and hit his palms with a ring ruler, and his palms were red and swollen. He cried in pain. Later, I heard from my mother that after my father beat him, he secretly hid in the room to wipe his tears.
He remembered that after mastering the "Flying Snow Sword Technique", he practiced in front of his father and a group of disciples of the Flying Snow Sect, and won a burst of applause, and his father nodded and smiled at him, and said "worthy of my son" The kind of pride on his face!
He remembered that his father was picked off by Liu Qianyun and his tendons and tendons, and he was still unyielding, and a wave of anger suddenly rose in his heart, and suddenly he shouted angrily, his fists were clenched, and the green tendons on the back of his hands burst out. With his arms propped up on his limp body, he stood up little by little.
A smile appeared at the corner of Xiao Tianyu's mouth, and with a stroke of his finger on his chest, the slender blood lines instantly lost traction and turned into a rain of blood and fell, instantly dyeing the ground a blood-red. Xiao Tianyu glanced up at Song Zhenming and said, "You are worthy of being Song Changqing's son, the tiger father has no dogs, come on, let me see your true strength!"
Although Song Zhenming stood up with that anger, his body still trembled. But his trembling hands slowly moved to the hilt of his sword, and held it hard, with a bang, an autumn water-like sword light flashed in front of Xiao Tianyu's eyes, Song Zhenming held the long sword, his face was hateful, like a devil, and a low roar came out of his throat: "You devil, go die!"
He took a step forward, and the long sword was handed forward, stabbing straight at Xiao Tianyu's chest. This sword is the most powerful killing move in the "Flying Snow Sword Technique", with his strong killing intent and anger of killing his father and destroying the door, and his power is really not to be underestimated.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Tianyu stood motionless in place, seeing that the sword light flickered in front of him, he suddenly raised his right hand to block upward, seemingly light and light, but in fact, with abundant internal force, forming a wall of qi in front of him. Although Song Zhenming's long sword was extremely sharp, it could not pierce this qi wall, but was blocked by it, and the sword body gradually became bent.
Although Song Zhenming knew that Xiao Tianyu was powerful, he was still shocked when he saw that he had lightly blocked his attack with only one hand. For a while, beads of sweat the size of beans oozed from his forehead.
The two confronted each other like this for a long time, and Song Zhenming kept handing the long sword forward, but he could not pierce the qi wall. Xiao Tianyu kept guarding like this, bending Song Zhenming's long sword like a bowed old shrimp.
Then, Xiao Tianyu seemed to be tired of playing, and waved his hand to remove the qi wall. Song Zhenming's body leaned forward because of inertia, and the long sword actually stabbed straight into Xiao Tianyu's chest. Xiao Tianyu's right index finger lightly touched the sword, the long sword buzzed and trembled, and Song Zhenming's body also tilted to the left with the long sword. Xiao Tianyu turned his right hand into a knife and struck towards the blade, only to hear a loud sound, and Song Zhenming's long sword was actually cut in two by his fleshy palm.
The second half was still in Song Zhenming's hands, but the first half was rotated in mid-air and fell straight to the ground. Xiao Tianyu grabbed the half-truncated sword, held it in his hand, and stepped forward. With his left hand, he grabbed Song Zhenming's body that was about to fall to the ground and straightened him. Song Zhenming was surprised, but saw a flash of cold light in front of him, Xiao Tianyu held the half-cut sword, and cut his chest.
A blood arrow spewed out, and Song Zhenming screamed miserably, and fell straight to the ground, with a blood mark on his chest. Maybe Xiao Tianyu made a move in a hurry, or maybe he didn't want to kill him. The wound on Song's chest was not deep, and it did not hurt the internal organs, but it would leave a scar.
Xiao Tianyu stretched out his hand and threw the bloodstained broken sword on the ground, turned around and jumped on the city wall, and floated away, leaving a sentence before leaving: "You send Song Gongzi down the mountain." ”
Liu Qianyun and the six envoys knelt down to send Xiao Tianyu and replied, "Obey the orders of the sect master." In his heart, he was extremely puzzled, and he couldn't understand what this young sect leader was doing
With his strength, trying to kill Song Zhenming is as easy as pinching an ant to death. But Xiao Tianyu not only didn't kill him, but also ordered several people to send him down the mountain. If you really want to let him go, why do you break his long sword and hurt him with your sword?
They just think about these things in their hearts. No one would dare to really ask Xiao Tianyu. He is the leader of the Xuanming Sect, and all orders as a subordinate only need to be done, and he must not ask why. This is the iron law of the Xuanming Sect, and no one dares to break it, except for the saint Xu Lanwei. She is outside the rules, a special person who jumps out of the Three Realms and is not in the Five Elements.
The person who was even more shocked than them should be Song Zhenming.
Of course, he knew the strength of the Xuan Ming Sect. This time, he really came with the belief that he would die, as Xiao Tianyu said. He even felt that he had died at the hands of the people in the Demon Sect before he could even see Xiao Tianyu's face. But he never thought that he would actually meet the Demon Sect Leader who was a genius in the sky, and he fought with him for a few rounds. Although it was a fiasco, Xiao Tianyu did not kill him, but asked his subordinates to send him down the mountain. What kind of medicine is sold in this Xiao Tianyu gourd?
Even his subordinates can't guess it, and Song Zhenming, an outsider, can't guess it even more!
......
After Xiao Tianyu left the seventh hall, he headed all the way south, preparing to go back to rest. As he reached a peak, he caught a glimpse of a white shadow standing on top of the peak, looking up at the night sky. Xiao Tianyu frowned, and jumped behind the white shadow, as light as a feather, without making a sound.
"Protector Zhang, haven't you rested so late?" Xiao Tianyu asked as he looked at the shadow.
Zhang Xiaoyuan turned around and saluted Xiao Tianyu, not shocked, as if he had already discovered him. Said: "Sect Leader Saint Ann, tonight the moon is clear and the wind is clear, it is a good time to watch the heavens. ”
Xiao Tianyu nodded and asked, "What is Zhang Protector's observance?"
Zhang Xiaoyuan nodded and said, "The position of the southern Vermilion Bird can faintly see the blood rushing to the sky, presumably in a few days, the Jiangnan area will raise sword soldiers." ”
"Is it in the Jiangnan area?" Xiao Tianyu nodded, thought for a while, and said, "But I don't know if Liu Futong or Xu Shouhui is going to war with the imperial court?" Or is Ye Linfeng going to deal with Zhang Shicheng?"
Zhang Xiaoyuan said: "Nowadays, there are several times more rebels in the south than in the north, and there will inevitably be a scuffle, and what the sect leader said is possible." ”
Xiao Tianyu nodded, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "By the way, Protector Zhang, when I went to Qinghai with Protector Xu to look for you, I heard that your master, the Yin Yang Sect Master, had written a prophetic poem before his death, recording the ownership of the lord of the world in the future. Is that really the case?"
Zhang Xiaoyuan nodded and said, "Don't hide it from the sect leader, there is indeed such a thing." More than ten years ago, the Yin Yang Sect Master used the Yin Yang Family's forbidden technique 'Star Blood Sacrifice' to forcibly get a glimpse of the heavens and wrote a masterpiece. The poem mentions today's troubled times, and also writes about the belonging of the lord of the world. This is a heavenly opportunity, and it must not be divulged. Therefore, since the death of the Yin Yang Sect Leader Immortal, our four disciples have gone into hiding, burying this secret in their hearts and never mentioning it to outsiders. Please also forgive me. ”
"It doesn't matter. Xiao Tianyu waved his hand and said, "Since the Yin Yang Sect Master asked you to hide this secret, he must also be afraid that if this matter is made public, it will definitely cause an uproar, and I am afraid that this troubled world will be even more chaotic." I can understand your struggle. It's not too early, so let's rest early!"
"Congratulations to the sect leader. Zhang Xiaoyuan bowed. Xiao Tianyu just wanted to leave, but suddenly stopped again, and said, "Hall Master Liu brought back a thousand-year-old ginseng plant in Changbai Mountain, you can go and boil it for the Holy Maiden tomorrow." ”
"The concubine knows. Zhang Xiaoyuan saluted Xiao Tianyu again. Xiao Tianyu strode up, and disappeared in front of Zhang Xiaoyuan's eyes in a blink of an eye.
......
A quick knock on the door woke Ye Linfeng's sweet dream.
Ye Linfeng reluctantly got up and asked, "Who is it?"
Yu Sihai's panicked voice sounded outside the door: "Helper, get up quickly!
Ye Linfeng was shocked, hurriedly got dressed and got out of bed, and opened the door. Yu Sihai was standing outside the door, full of frightened expressions. Ye Linfeng asked, "What's wrong?"
Yu Sihai shook his head and said, "It's a hundred times more terrifying than this." Helper, come to the hall with me, Zhanfei Zhan Hall Master was seriously injured and is in the hall!"
Ye Linfeng was startled, and hurriedly came to the hall with Yu Sihai. But I saw that all the thirty-six hall masters in the gang had been counted, and they filled the entire hall. Zhan Fei, the master of the Wuji Hall, was lying on the ground, and Jiang Heng, the master of the Divine Crane Hall, was taking care of him.
I saw Zhanfei's face pale, his anger was like a gossamer, and Yin Yin's blood oozed from the placket of his chest, obviously seriously injured. Ye Linfeng leaned over to check his pulse, but found that his pulse was weak and his heartbeat was weak, and he was afraid that his life would not be long!
Ye Linfeng pulled open the clothes on his chest, but saw a deep blood mark obliquely on his chest, the skin and flesh were rolling, and the blood was like an infusion. Although Jinchuang medicine has been applied, because the wound is too deep, the blood washes away Jinchuang Medicine, and it is useless.
Ye Linfeng hurriedly sealed the acupuncture points on his chest before he could barely stop the bleeding. He instructed Jiang Heng to give him medicine again, got up and asked, "Who injured the hall master like this?"
Before Zhan Fei, he was the head of Wuji Gate in the Jiangnan area, with strong martial arts, and the 8864 Road "Wuji Sword Technique" had few enemies in the Jiangnan area. Back then, after Ye Linfeng sent the "three-character order" to Wujimen, he also had a wonderful battle with Zhanfei. Zhanfei's sword technique was impenetrable, and it took Ye Linfeng a long time to take him down, and of course he paid a heavy price. Zhanfei can be said to be the most difficult one of the thirty-six sects he has subdued. This also proves the strong strength of Zhanfei.
can hurt Zhan Fei like this, and I am afraid that there are only a handful in the whole world. Ye Linfeng turned around and asked Yu Sihai, "Hall Master Yu, what happened?"
Yu Sihai replied: "Helper, I also heard what the hall master said just now, and the thing is probably like this. Just an hour ago, the owner of the exhibition hall got up at night, and as soon as he walked into the courtyard, he heard a sound of wind coming from outside the courtyard wall, and smacked on the pillar, but it was a dart with a letter inserted into it. Thinking that there was an assassin, the hall master shouted, but saw a dark figure jump from the wall, apparently the one who delivered the letter. The hall master wanted to catch him and ask for his identity, so he chased after him. At this time, I also heard a noise. I happened to see the hall master chasing the man. Fearing for his safety, I chased after him. Who knew that the hall master and that person were very good, and I couldn't catch up in the blink of an eye. I ran all the way to the woods outside the city, just in time to see the badly injured hall master, but the man was nowhere to be seen. ”
Ye Linfeng frowned and asked, "How long has it been since you and the Hall Master of the Lost Zhan Hall to meet him again?"
Yu Sihai thought for a while and said, "It's just a cup of tea!"
Ye Linfeng couldn't help but be shocked. Just one cup of tea can seriously injure Zhanfei, who is strong in martial arts. It seems that that man's martial arts are even better than his own. He suddenly remembered something, and asked, "You said that the man nailed a letter to the pillar with a dart, and you took it down?"
"It's been taken!" Yu Sihai took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Ye Linfeng, and said, "Please help the master take a look." ”
Ye Linfeng took the letter, turned it around, and suddenly called out. It turned out that on the envelope, there were three big characters written "Xuanming Sect"!
I never thought that the owner of the "Three-Character Order" that once terrified the Jiangnan area would also receive the "Three-Character Order", and it was also the three-character order of the Xuanming Sect, the largest sect in the world!
