110: Return to the Valley of Ghosts
The common people are smeared, the world is burning, and there are hundreds of schools, and I am the only one. Mr. Guigu has only accepted two disciples in his life, and he has been in a single line for a hundred years. One is vertical and the other is horizontal, and they are incompatible. The winner between the two can become the new Guiguzi, a strange tradition that has been followed for hundreds of years. Although the strength of Guiguzi in the past dynasties is stronger than that of a million teachers, "the princes are afraid when they are angry, and the world is resting when they live in peace."
When Gai Nie Weizhuang left, Guiguzi said to them: "You can't go back to Guigu until you defeat the other party." ”
Now ten years have passed, and the battle between Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang continues, but Gai Nie has returned.
Gai Nie has always believed that the duel between vertical and horizontal is a mistake in itself, and that something wrong cannot be wrong. Isn't it just to fight for the first place in Weizhuang just to become the first? However, what if you get such a first, what if you become the next generation of Guiguzi, and what is the use of killing the brothers and sisters who grew up with you and becoming Guiguzi?
Is it really right to continue such a ghost valley and such a tradition?
Came to the Ghost Valley, the starting point of Gai Nie's pride in the rivers and lakes, this place where Wei Xiaorui has heard of legends since she was a child.
The ghost valley is on the cliff of the nameless peak, and there is no Gai Nie to lead the way, Wei Xiaorui can't walk in at all, even if she follows Gai Nie in, but she doesn't remember the way she came. The Ghost Valley is not as gloomy as Yu Xiaorui imagined, but it is not as beautiful as heaven, but it is barren and overgrown with weeds.
Yu Xiaorui said with a disappointed face: "Uncle, is this the Ghost Valley?"
Gai Nie nodded, "Yes." ”
Wei Xiaorui said: "Why is it like this? ”
Obviously, Gai Nie didn't expect this kind of scene, for ten years, he has not returned to Guiguzi, nor has he contacted Guiguzi, now, how did Guiguzi become like this?
The stone monument at the entrance of the Ghost Valley was also covered with moss, and Gai Nie walked over and peeled off the moss one by one, revealing the word "Ghost Valley". Who would have thought that the ghost valley in the world, which is famous in the world, is so depressed.
Inside, it was a paved path, but now it was completely covered in fallen leaves! Walking forward, there is a large courtyard about 20 zhang, and there is a big camphor tree on the small slope on the side of the courtyard, but it is much smaller than Gai Nie's impression, and it is obvious that there are many fewer branches. The tree will only grow bigger and bigger, will it grow smaller and smaller? Ganie continued to walk inside, still covered with fallen leaves, and it seemed that no one had lived here for a long time.
Walking further inside, Gai Nie's face changed. In his impression, there was a stone round table in the courtyard, where Guiguzi would play a game of chess with him every morning. After staying in Guiguzi for so many years, I have never seen Guiguzi move the stone table away, and in Guigugu, only people and swords are really changing, and everything else remains the same, Guiguzi's life is very regular, and his life is almost the same every day. But now, the table is gone.
Although he has been away for ten years, the ghost valley layout scene is still in his mind, and he is like he has never left.
Gai Nie knows about Guigu, and he also knows Guiguzi. He was already strange that the camphor tree had become smaller, and it was even more strange that the stone table was missing now.
Yu Xiaorui noticed Gai Nie's change and said, "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
Gai Nie said: "Something is wrong. ”
Wei Xiaorui said: "Is it because there is no one?"
Gai Nie said: "No. ”
Yu Xiaorui said: "What's the reason for that?"
Gagne ignored her, or rather didn't hear her at all. Walked straight to the place where there was the stone table, squatted down, picked up the leaves there, and then, revealing a stone pillar, this stone pillar is the one that supports the stone table, but now the stone pillar is broken, but the surface of the stone pillar has a long trace, as symmetrical as the diameter of the circle.
Gai Nie could tell at a glance that it was a sword mark. The remaining stone pillars were buried in the ground, and the protruding parts, along with the stone table and the four stone benches around the stone table, were missing. Gai Nie followed the direction of the sword mark on the stone pillar, turned over the leaves on the ground, and then saw that there was a crack about seven zhang long in the ground, the crack was thin and deep, and the crack was stuffed with leaves, and it was impossible to find it if you didn't look closely. The crack was connected to the mark on the stone pillar, and Gai Nie found the fragments of the stone table and stone bench within a radius of six zhang of the stone pillar.
Gai Nie understood that the other party only used a sword, and that person was standing at the end of that crack at that time, and as soon as the long sword swung out, the powerful sword qi left such a mark on the ground, blowing up the stone table and stone bench.
In today's rivers and lakes, there are no more than twenty people who can split the stone table with sword qi from seven zhang away, but most of them will definitely scratch the ground undecently, leaving a huge pit or something. But being able to create such a slender mark on the ground shows that the other party can use the sword qi as if it were a real sword, retracting and releasing it freely, and controlling it to a certain extent, just like exhaling and inhaling it as rhythmically and smoothly. To do this, it seems that Ganie can only barely do it! Because that kind of realm seems to be the limit of human beings!
Who the hell is that person? Gai Nie is sure that it is not Guiguzi, although Guiguzi also has such ability, but he will not split his stone table.
Suddenly, he thought of the big camphor tree, how could a tree that had flourished ten years ago be so much smaller that Gai Nie jumped and floated up. Only then did I find that all the original thick branches had been cut off, leaving only the middle trunk, and the rest of the branches and leaves may have regrown in recent years.
Coming down from the camphor tree, Gai Nie's heart became more and more confused.
Wei Xiaorui asked, "Uncle, what's wrong with you?"
Gai Nie said: "There was another big war here, a war that is unparalleled in the world!"
Wei Xiaorui said: "The big war, how do you know, just rely on those traces?"
Gai Nie said: "These traces are the best proof. ”
Wei Xiaorui said: "Then do you know who the belligerents are?"
Gai Nie said: "One of them must be my master, but the other one, I can't think of it! I can't imagine that there is such a master in the rivers and lakes!"
Wei Xiaorui said: "Uncle, if you say that, is he more powerful than you?"
Gai Nie said: "Yes, better than me!" It seems to be a difficult thing for the world's number one swordsman to admit that there are people in this world who are more powerful than him. But for Gai Nie himself, the Sword Saint is already a false name, and he can't even protect the people around him, so don't want the name of the Sword Saint!
Now, Ganie's main concern is, who is that person?
