"Where am I......"

Chu Xun's body moved slightly, and he woke up and turned around.

"I ...... Didn't you die?" this was Chu Xun's first thought.

But when he saw the situation around him clearly, that little bit of happiness for the rest of his life immediately came to naught.

He was lying at the bottom of the valley, dark, dark and damp, and the air smelled of stale must.

He tried his best to sit up, but his whole body was so weak that he couldn't move even a little finger.

"How could it not be dead...... Jumping off such a high cliff, could it be that I, Chu Xun, am really disgusted? Even God refuses to accept me. ”

Looking at the towering cliff overhead, Chu Xun found that there were clusters of plants growing horizontally in the stone wall, and he was probably buffered by these plants all the way, so he was lucky not to fall to his death.

Chu Xun lay quietly on the soft ground, and I don't know how long it took for him to regain a little strength and struggle to stand up.

The entrance is a long and narrow valley, with countless dead branches and rotten fruits thickly spread on the valley floor, and the place where he just lay sinks deeply, forming a complete human form.

"Hehe......" He laughed twice in a hoarse voice, not knowing whether he was smiling bitterly or rejoicing, shook his head, and sighed, "I can't imagine that I can't even die now." ”

He staggered forward, letting the twigs hang his clothes in tatters, and only moved forward with difficulty.

"Huh?"

In front of the stone wall, there is a cave more than one person high, look inside, you can't see the five fingers, the black is extremely penetrating.

"Anyway, they are all people who are going to die, if there are any fierce beasts and poisonous snakes in it, it will be clean if you bite it!"

Chu Xun made up his mind, groped around his body for a while, took out the flint, lit a few dead branches as torches, and walked into the depths of the cave step by step.

Unexpectedly, there was a flat path inside the cave.

He was still very weak at this time, dragging his heavy steps, moving deeper and deeper.

In the darkness, apart from the sound of his own footsteps and heartbeat, the silence was maddening.

Although the passage was very long, there was always a musty smell and damp smell coming over at the end of the walk, which made Chu Xun sneeze a few times.

The firelight extended to the end, Chu Xun stared at it, and when he saw the situation in the cave clearly, he couldn't help but be shocked that his hair stood on end, and dense goosebumps suddenly appeared on his skin.

In front of you is a stone cave with a radius of more than ten zhang, two thick stone pillars stand in the cave, and the surface is carved with mysterious and unpredictable lines.

In the middle of the pillar, a thin old man sat cross-legged, his limbs tightly chained to the thick pillar.

The old man had been imprisoned for an unknown amount of time, his hair and beard were dragging on his chest like a mess of hay, and his whole body was covered with a thick layer of dust.

"Whew-" Chu Xun gasped heavily, and his frightened mood slowly calmed down.

Although the situation in front of him is extremely strange, it is only a dead man in the end.

He did not dare to touch the corpse indiscriminately, but looked around for a long time, and saw that there was no trace in the cave except for the stone pillars and the corpse.

"I don't know who this prisoner is, since he intends to put him to death, it is better to simply hack him to death, why bother to build this stone pillar chain?"

Chu Xun's eyes fell on the thick stone pillar, and he tried to touch the exquisite stone patterns with his hands, and recognized them for a long time, but he couldn't guess what these lines meant.

Under the light of the fire, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be some handwriting engraved on the ground in front of the corpse.

Courageous, Chu Xun rubbed to the side of the corpse step by step, stretched out his head to carefully identify the handwriting on the ground, and slowly read out the sound.

"My name is Yue Sha. ”

"Spanning the rivers and lakes for decades, happy revenge, killing all the people who can be killed, proud of the world. ”

"From time to time, there is a sword to respect Yunxiao, and I have entered the demon path, what about the demon?

"Chongming 49, Xiao invited thirteen swordsmen from the righteous path, and defeated my Qilian Mountain......"

Chu Xun read the line by line, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart.

"Chongming Forty-nine, that's a full hundred and twenty years!"

Thinking about 120 years ago, this old man ruled the world, happy to take revenge, and then fought with thirteen swordsmen, that battle must have been earth-shattering.

Chu Xun was anxious to read the words behind him, and dragged his steps forward a few steps, but unexpectedly, with a loud bang, he actually pulled the chain locked on the stone pillar.

As soon as the chains moved, the corpse was dragged forward, and then it was a stiff one, which shocked Chu Xun's soul.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's been dead for more than a hundred years......"

He froze and was about to continue looking at the handwriting in front of the old man, when he suddenly stopped again.

— because he suddenly remembered a problem that he had been ignoring.

"Since it has been dead for more than a hundred years...... Why...... Why is this body still not rotting?"

Chu Xun was bold and stretched out the torch in front of the corpse little by little, but he was shocked to find that in the unkempt hair, the eyes of the "corpse" were unexpectedly opened, flashing with a strange green glow, and he was staring at himself without blinking.

"Ahh

He was so shocked that his hairs stood on end, and his hair even felt that the roots stood upright, and he stepped back again and again, and sat on the ground, and the torches also fell, and the flames also shrank rapidly, and quickly annihilated, and the cave was suddenly dark.

"Don't be afraid, boy!"

A hoarse voice sounded faintly in the cavern.

He hadn't spoken for too long, and the old man's voice was extremely strange, not only did he speak indistinctly, but he also seemed to be weak all over, and his voice was as thin as a gnat, if it weren't for the fact that he was in the depths of an extremely silent cave, Chu Xun really couldn't hear what he was saying.

"My whole body is trapped by this chain, I can't move, and I can't hurt you!"

Chu Xun's frightened mind calmed down slightly, and he thought that this old man was indeed firmly locked to the stone pillar, so he let go of his heart a little.

"You, are you a human or a ghost?"

"Hehehe...... "The old man laughed dryly and replied, "What do you say?"

Chu Xun strengthened his courage and groped to light the torch again. Little by little, stretch the torch forward.

Under the light of the fire, the old man slowly raised his head. I saw that his upper body was empty, and his lower body was wearing a pair of fur pants that were almost rotten, his whole body was shriveled, and the thick joints seemed to be pierced from under the skin, and his head was covered with long dry hair, and his beard was even longer than his hair, and his face was completely unclear.

"Yes, yes, although there is no cultivation, but the courage is different from ordinary people. The old man's green eyes flashed in the firelight, and his speech gradually became fluent, "It's really remarkable that I wasn't frightened by the old man, and that I was able to get rid of my fear so quickly." ”

Chu Xun opened his mouth, but found that he had nothing to say, and only after a while did he ask, "You are Yue Sha?"

"Hahaha!" the old man's laughter was as sharp as an eagle's owl, "I can't imagine that anyone else knows the name of the old man?

"Thirty-three years at the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty. More than 120 years have passed since Chongming 49......"

It's been 120 years...... The old man sighed faintly and said, "Presumably, Yun Jianzun and the others have already turned into a handful of loess. ”

Chu Xun rubbed his nose, thinking that it was better not to talk too much with this old man, so he immediately arched his hand and said, "Junior, farewell!"

"The five internal organs have been displaced, the meridians are misaligned, and they are almost exhausted. Boy, if you can live for more than three days after you get out of here, even if the old man is blind in these eyes. The old man suddenly burst out with a sentence, which made Chu Xun tremble.

"How do you know?" Chu Xun stopped in surprise.

"Hmph, judging from your signs, it is clear that it fell from a very high place, isn't it that the old man can't see this?" the old man smiled, "Fortunately, it was blocked by something a few times, but Rao is so, and you will die soon." If you don't believe me, you take a deep breath and give it a try?"

"Oh-" Chu Xun nodded expressionlessly, turned around and was about to leave.

"Boy, aren't you afraid of death?"

There was a hint of doubt in the old man's tone.

"If you are afraid of death, how can you jump off the cliff?" Chu Xun shook his head with a wry smile, unwilling to say more to the old man.

"No wonder there is no fear in my heart!" the old man's voice came from behind him, "but do you have your parents alive......? Is there anything unspeakable that you have to die?"

The look in Chu Xun's eyes gradually disappeared.

Because of the old man's words, it aroused countless thoughts in Chu Xun's heart.

Yes, it doesn't matter if you die, the poor old father who is over half a hundred years old is still working hard in the Zhuangzi, waiting for him to go back.

The vast majority of Zhuangzi are surnamed Ye, and all those with foreign surnames who have migrated over are deceived almost everywhere.

's mother died early, and my father was honest by nature, and he was bullied by the big families in the village, but he just smiled. In order to be able to read and write, the old father did almost everything he could, kneeling in front of the master's door and begging bitterly.

Although he worked extremely hard in the academy, he was not praised or rewarded, and was more sarcastic and sarcastic. The goal of getting ahead has become out of reach.

It wasn't until I saw a martial arts genius in the family of a family who was also a foreign surname and was accepted as a core disciple by the gate that the family became hot almost overnight. Chu Xun's mind was immediately touched.

He doesn't have much pursuit, and making his father's life a little better may be his biggest goal. As for being bullied by his peers and scolded countless times as a wastewood—what does it matter? As long as you can embark on this path of martial arts, everything will be solved.

Chu Xun stood there quietly, but the old man was silent, and the cave fell into an indescribable silence.

"You ......" Chu Xun finally turned his head slowly, looked directly at the old man who was locked in the stone pillar, and said word by word, "...... What exactly do you want to say?"

The corners of the old man's mouth went up, revealing an extremely strange-looking smile.

"I teach you the ability to save your life, and I can also let you get the superior martial arts to cultivate. The old man's expression gradually became solemn, "What you have to do is to find out the truth of an incident for me." ”
