Chapter 166: Questioning
There was silence in the forest, and the atmosphere was suddenly so tense that people wanted to suffocate, especially when the young, beautiful, cold-looking woman suddenly swept in front of Shen Shi and the old white monkey, and there was a faint powerful aura on her body, after staring at Shen Shi and asking that sentence, Shen Shi and the old white monkey, including the stone pig behind him, had a feeling of being out of breath.
Among the five Terran monks, it seems that this young woman who has never done anything is the strongest and the strongest.
Shen Shi's face looked a little pale, and he seemed to be very nervous, but his ribs secretly pushed back and hit the old white monkey.
The old white monkey was startled, reacted immediately, and shouted: "None of you are allowed to come, whoever dares to come will kill him!"
As he spoke, he placed the dagger that he had picked up from nowhere across Shen Shi's neck, while grabbing Shen Shi's clothes with his other hand and slowly retreating backwards.
At this moment, the remaining few other Terran monks also arrived, and the five of them stood in a row, with different faces, looking at these two different demon clans and the young man who was captured by the demon clan, among them, especially the Qian junior brother's face was the most ugly, especially when he saw the old white monkey slowly walking towards the depths of the forest with Shen Shi and the stone pig, he couldn't help but take another step forward, and it seemed that he wanted to kill the killer again.
It's just that the other hand suddenly stretched out from the side, but it was Senior Brother Geng who grabbed him and said, "Qian Yi, don't mess around!"
Qian Yi looked angry, looked at Shen Shi and the others with unkind eyes, and said, "Do you just let them go like this?"
Senior Brother Geng looked like a steady character, frowned and said: "Ling Xiao Sect is one of the four righteous in the world, the status is not trivial, the disciples must not kill at will, and ......" He hesitated for a moment, and at the same time turned his head to look at the young woman, and said, "Let's go to the 'Heavenly Sword Palace' where Senior Sister Nangong is located, both belong to the four righteous in the world, and have a lot of contacts with Ling Xiao Sect, which is not shallow, we must not move lightly, in case we hurt the harmony of the two factions, wouldn't it be a great sin." ā
He didn't deliberately lower his voice when he said this, everyone near the scene heard it, and several other male monks all showed thoughtful expressions on their faces, and they all turned their heads to look at the beautiful woman named Nangong, and this female monk surnamed Nangong changed her expression slightly after hearing Senior Brother Geng's words, frowned slightly, and looked at Shen Shi, her eyes also showed a little hesitation.
And the old white monkey was still cautiously pretending to hold Shen Shi hostage and retreating, but Shen Shi also heard Senior Brother Geng's words in the process of retreating, especially when the three words of Sword Palace came into his ears that day, he suddenly recalled his vague memory just now.
It turned out to be a monk from the Heavenly Sword Palace, no wonder he felt so familiar.
Heavenly Sword Palace, like Ling Xiao Sect, is also one of the four famous sects in the world, including Nangong Xiaoyu, the founder of the mountain, and Gan Jingcheng, the founder of Ling Xiao Sect, is one of the six saints of the human race in the past.
In fact, in today's Hongmeng cultivation realm, the four famous families that occupy the highest peak and are proud of the world and have been inherited for thousands of years, their founding ancestors are all the six saints of the human race, and their respective family inheritances are also deeply integrated with these four wealthy families, and under ten thousand years, they have continued to reproduce.
In addition to the Lingxiao Sect and the Heavenly Sword Palace, the other two famous gates left are the Zhenlong Hall and the Yuan Shi Gate. Zhenlong Hall was founded by Ji Rongxuan of the Six Saints of the Human Race in the past, and the last Yuan Shimen was different from the other three factions, because in this wealthy giant faction, from the beginning of its establishment, there were three of the Six Saints of the Human Race, namely Yuan Wentian, who was ranked first among the Six Saints of the Human Race, and Gu Zizhen and Song Wende, who ranked fourth and fifth.
One door and three saints, how powerful and glorious this is, for countless years, these four famous sects have never weakened after ups and downs, and have always stood at the peak of the human race cultivation realm, and among the four righteousness, it is faintly headed by the Yuan Shi Gate, including the four positive gatherings once every ten years, and it has always been the Yuan Shi Gate to convene.
However, these words are a bit far, the Heavenly Sword Palace, which is also among the four righteous ones, is naturally known to everyone in the Hongmeng Cultivation Realm, and Shen Shi has also been familiar with it since he was a child, but the reason why he didn't react in front of him, but had a vague impression after hearing the three words Xuanjian Gate, is because the sect of Heavenly Sword Palace controlled and developed three lower doors hundreds of years ago, namely Xuanjian Gate, Golden Sword Gate and Flying Sword Gate, and the relationship between the number before and after is basically the master and slave.
The strength of the Heavenly Sword Palace is unfathomable, and like the other three famous sects, it occupies a superb cave in the main realm of Hongmeng, and is proud of the world, and the three subordinate lower gates are generally for the Heavenly Sword Palace to expand its power in the rest of the world, and at the same time, there are also discovering genius disciples, or looking for various cultivation resources, including all kinds of heavenly materials and earth treasures, and even the most important spiritual stone veins for cultivators, etc.
This kind of relationship is basically open in the Hongmeng cultivation realm, and the monks of these three sects come out, in fact, they often regard themselves as the outer disciples of the Heavenly Sword Palace, and others often only remember that it is the sect of the Heavenly Sword Palace. Therefore, when Shen Shi suddenly only heard about the Xuanjian Sect before, he did not think of the Heavenly Sword Palace, a famous sect that was on a par with his own sect.
Just figured this out, but he was faintly uneasy in his heart, others were easy to say, but the young woman with the surname Nangong was obviously not easy to deal with, she was also a disciple of the Four Righteous Background, she didn't seem to have as many scruples as Senior Brother Geng and others, plus her surname, it was not possible that she was a child of the Nangong family inherited from Nangong Xiaoyu, one of the six saints of the human race in the past.
With such an identity and family background, my identity as a disciple of the outer sect of the Lingxiao Sect is really not enough to see.
He was uneasy here, and his face barely pretended to be panicked, but out of the corner of his eye, he still secretly looked at the woman, and suddenly saw her take a step, her face was calm, and she said: "I am Nangong Ying, a disciple of the Heavenly Sword Palace, since this brother Tai claims to be a disciple of the Ling Xiao Sect, please tell him his name, I have a great relationship with the Ling Xiao Sect, and there is also a way to quickly notify the Ling Xiao Sect for verification." ā
Her voice was calm and flat, but the meaning of her words revealed a little suspicion, obviously in the eyes of Nangong Ying, who was young but already highly educated, she was also a disciple of the Four Righteous Sects, and there should not be such a waste guy under the Ling Xiao Sect.
Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, but then he felt that the body of the old white monkey behind him was also slightly stunned, and he actually had the intention of stopping, and he suddenly felt anxious in his heart, and secretly scolded this old monkey for being confused.
He coughed fiercely, tilted his neck, and looked as if the old white monkey suddenly pressed the blade again, and his face suddenly showed a panicked and fearful expression of fear, as if he was going to collapse to the ground in the next moment, and even his body shook, and at the same time, taking advantage of this gap, he stepped on the old white monkey heavily, and opened his mouth to gasp and say loudly:
"IāI'm a disciple of the Lingxiao Sect...... Shen Shi, it's true, don't come here, you must save me......"
The old white monkey was hit by him again, and his steps back suddenly became a little faster, and Nangong Ying's beautiful face saw Shen Shi's panicked and greedy appearance of being afraid of death, and suddenly showed a little disgust, and there was a trace of contempt in his eyes, but no matter what, the three words of Ling Xiaozong were really not light, even if she was born in a famous family and had an extraordinary background, she was a little afraid to move lightly at this moment, and under hesitation, she watched the two demons and an inconspicuous little black pig slowly retreat into the forest and gradually drift away.
Nangong Ying didn't move, and the other four monks of the Xuanjian Sect naturally wouldn't make a move, that Qian Yi looked a little unwilling on his face, and hated to put away the fairy sword spirit weapon, while Senior Brother Geng, who was old and serious, walked up to Nangong Ying and said softly: "Just let them go?"
Nangong Ying was silent for a moment, shook her head slowly, and said: "This person's identity is suspicious, and his words cannot be trusted, but the Heavenly Sword Palace and the Ling Xiao Sect have been friends for more than 10,000 years, and they have always been good friends. ā
Senior Brother Geng glanced in the direction of Shen Shi and the others retreated, and said, "Then ...... now?"
Nangong Ying snorted, her face turned a little colder, and said: "Regardless of whether what he said is true or not, you can't forget it, you take a few senior brothers to follow secretly, and I will go back to tell the master with a secret method, as far as I know, there are also immortal runes in the door that can be contacted by the Lingxiao Sect thousands of miles away, and then I will ask if there is this person under the Lingxiao Sect." If there is really such a person, let the Ling Xiao Sect send someone to deal with it, if there is no such person, it is he who deceives us and others," Speaking of this, the disgust in Nangong Ying's eyes became thicker, it seemed that Shen Shi's ugly appearance of being greedy for life and afraid of death under the hostage of the demon clan just now really made her a little contemptuous, and said coldly,
"Then he will not be tolerated!"

As soon as they left the sight of those Terran monks and hid in the dense forest, the old white monkey immediately let go of Shen Shi, and the stone pig also hurried over, and the three of them were in a hurry like lost dogs, with a little black pig who still didn't understand what was going on, and ran away all the way.
This forest is quite large, they fled for their lives this time, naturally they will not return to the original way, anyway, the top priority is to get rid of those few Terran monks, the old white monkey and the others also panicked, and kept fleeing to the depths of the dense forest. I don't know how long I ran this run, until I could no longer hear the movement behind me, and the light from the gaps in the dense branches and leaves overhead began to dim a little, the old white monkey finally stopped exhausted, sat down at the foot of a big tree, gasping for breath, as if a little out of breath.
Shen Shi and Shi Zhu also stopped, the two of them were far better than the old white monkey, so they could bear it until now, but they were also a little panting, but the little black pig that had been following them looked the most relaxed, trotting all the way to follow, and at this time there was no respite at all, and they went to the side leisurely to play with those wild flowers and weeds.
"Water, water, is there any water...... "The old white monkey gasped, his lips were chapped, and he looked up at Shi Zhu and Shen Shi and asked.
Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, shook his head, the stone pig was almost like this, but suddenly thought of something, grinned, but raised his hand, it turned out that he had run so far, this simple-minded and direct pig demon actually held the jar of Huadiao wine with one hand.
The old white monkey's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have a little more luster on his withered face, and hurriedly recruited: "Quick, take it quickly, let me take a sip first." ā
The stone pig put the flower carving wine jar in front of him, and the old white monkey gently patted the seal, and suddenly a rich and mellow smell of wine floated out, just smelling a mouthful, as if he could feel a mellow wine slowly entering his throat, from the mouth has been warm into the stomach.
The old white monkey showed an extremely satisfied look on his face, with an even somewhat sacred expression, bowed his head, picked up the wine jar and took a sip.
Then he slowly closed his eyes and didn't speak for a long time, until Shen Shi and Shi Zhu began to be a little worried, and the old white monkey suddenly let out a long sigh, with a hint of intoxication on his face, and said:
"Good wine!"
"That's the real ...... What wine!"
Although he was a little restless at the moment, looking at the old white monkey's appearance of getting what he wanted, Shen Shi still showed a smile. After only a moment, the old white monkey gently lowered the wine jar, then turned his head to look at him, stared at him, and then calmed down on his face.
Shen Shi frowned, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and said, "Old monkey, what are you looking at?"
The old white monkey was silent for a moment, seemed to bow his head slightly, and then finally opened his mouth, looked at him, and said softly:
"What is a disciple of the Ling Xiao Sect?"
