Chapter 7: Knocking on the Heavens

After Yang Qing left Baihua Town, the news of the destruction of evil ghosts spread all over the country, and many people in the rivers and lakes began to know that there was such a number one person as Yang Qing, who was not only young and young, but also had the ability, he liked to wear a green robe and carry a long sword, and the rivers and lakes called him the Qingyu Swordsman.

And Li Yuanwai also fulfilled his promise, salvaged a corpse in the lotus pond, and went to the mass grave to dig up another corpse that had been buried for decades, and then buried them together and set up a grave.

After inviting the mage to spend time, the Li family scattered the family wealth to relieve the refugees, built waterways, opened warehouses and released grain, and for a while, the benevolence and righteousness of the Li family in Baihua Town became a good story on the rivers and lakes, and heroes from all walks of life applauded.

Yang Qing carried the long sword on his back, and Murong Qiuyu went all the way to the south, after learning to ride a horse, the speed increased a lot, and it took three days to pass through two towns, and finally came to Sword Mountain.

The sword mountain is as high as 10,000 zhang, the momentum is magnificent, like a sharp sword breaking through the sky, the mountain is full of clouds and mist all the year round, the miasma is horizontal, ordinary people can not reach it.

At the foot of the mountain, Yang Qing and Murong Qiuyu stood side by side, looking at the mountain in front of them, and couldn't help but secretly praise the magic of nature.

"The Immortal Sword Sect is on this mountain, as long as you reach the Sword Cliff, you can knock on the sky. Murong Qiuyu pointed to the Sword Mountain in front of him, and his fingers stayed on a looming cliff.

Yang Qingshun looked at it, but saw that the clouds and mist were shrouded, and he couldn't see anything clearly, so he couldn't help shaking his head and said, "What is Knocking on the Sky?"

Murong Qiuyu explained: "The Sword Cliff is a cliff, there is no road ahead, if you want to go to the Immortal Sword Sect, you have to go through the assessment of the immortals, and knocking on the sky pass comes from this!"

"I see. Yang Qing suddenly realized.

"Let's go, I'll take you to be an immortal!" Murong Qiuyu chuckled lightly and rode out.

Yang Qing smiled and hurriedly followed.

Sword Mountain is mostly precipice, the mountain road is steep, it is not easy to walk, the carriage and horses can not walk, there are countless intersections, if you are not careful, you will fall into it, you may not be able to get out for half a day, and even lose your life.

But every day there is an endless stream of people who come here, and those who have the ability to knock on the gate of heaven go to try it, and those who don't have the ability to come here to try their luck and see if they can hit the immortals.

Over time, there were more and more people here, and a bazaar was gradually formed, with people eating and lodging, and there were vendors selling all kinds of items obtained from Sword Mountain, and people were dazzled to see it.

Soon there were two more professions here, one was a tour guide, who was responsible for introducing the history and culture of Jianshan, such as where there were immortals in the past, and which people had successfully knocked on the Tianguan, of course, if they wanted to take them up the mountain, but the price was more expensive.

There is also a profession of guide, because of the familiarity with the road, so it is specialized in taking people up the mountain, and the price is relatively low.

After Yang Qing and Murong Qiuyu came to the market and laid down the horses, they came to a tea house to drink tea, intending to rest for a while before going up the mountain.

People come and go here, most of them are walking the rivers and lakes, all carrying all kinds of weapons, and there are many people sitting here in the tea house, all talking about knocking on the sky.

"I heard that Qing Yuge, the young city lord of Beiyuan City, is coming to knock on the sky today, and he has a great grasp!"

"Qing Yu Ge? Could it be that Qing Yu Ge, who is known as Murong Qiuyu, is the Beidi Spear King of Beiyuan City? I heard that his one-handed Beicang marksmanship is superb, and he can be truly passed down by his father. ”

"Yes, the young man is really powerful now, I don't know if Murong Qiuyu is here, I heard that her Murong swordsmanship is peerless, a few days ago in Baihua Town, even Zhong Kui, who has been famous for decades, suffered in her hands!"

"I heard that a young man named Qingyu Swordsman has appeared on the rivers and lakes recently, and it is also amazing that Li Yuanwai's ghost disaster was solved by him. ”

"If you want me to say it, this world is about to be chaotic, the world is full of demons and monsters, immortals are born frequently, and the signs of troubled times are ......"

"I didn't expect you to be so famous. Yang Qing said with a smile.

"You only know now how powerful this woman is! In this river and lake, there is no one who doesn't know me when I mention the Hongxia Fairy. Murong Qiuyu stepped on the stool with a smug expression.

"Fairy Hongxia, you can't seal it yourself, right?" Yang Qing pouted.

"You have to take care of it!"

Murong Qiuyu approached Yang Qing and said curiously: "Then again, that Qingyu Ge is from Beiyuan City like you, do you recognize it?"

Yang Qing picked up the teacup and shook his head lightly: "I'm just an ordinary person, how can I know him, if it weren't for the purpose of sending a letter to the Immortal Sword Sect this time, I wouldn't have come out." ”

"You won't know me, right?" said Murong Qiuyu with a playful smile.

"Yes, in addition to knowing you, I have also experienced a lot of things and gained a lot of knowledge. Yang Qing nodded and smiled.

"Not only have you experienced a lot of things!You are also well-known in the rivers and lakes now, Qingyu Swordsman, but I think it is more like a ghost hunter master, why don't we explore the rivers and lakes together!hehe!" Murong Qiuyu quipped with a smile.

Yang Qing sighed and said: "My Hongxia Fairy, I've told you many times, I don't even know martial arts, I'm just an ordinary person, maybe after sending the letter, I will return to my original place and live an ordinary life." ”

Murong Qiuyu didn't say anything when he heard this, he just smiled, but the loss in his eyes flashed.

......

The two sat for a while and then left, it was noon, the sun was very strong, and many people in the bazaar were walking shirtless, and their whole bodies were tanned.

Murong Qiuyu is obviously not the first time to come here, she seems very familiar, every time she walks to a stall, the boss will greet her warmly, Murong Qiuyu at this time will look down-to-earth and generous, her beautiful face is full of smiles, and she responds eagerly to everyone, showing her ladylike demeanor.

"Let's go!" Yang Qing walked in front and urged with a smile, seeing Murong Qiuyu so popular, he felt a little funny, her personality was quirky, sometimes even he couldn't tell which was the real Murong Qiuyu, and couldn't help but think of the days when he was often beaten by her, it was really painful and happy.

"It's coming, it's coming, what is urging!"

Murong Qiuyu followed, with a dissatisfied look on his face, and there were a bunch of things sent by others in his arms.

"We're going up the mountain now, you're not tired of carrying so many things. Yang Qing quipped.

"Go, I want you to take care of it! Hurry up and send you to the Immortal Sword Sect and I can go home, hurry up, hurry up!" Murong Qiuyu had already run to the front.

Yang Qing smiled and shook his head and followed.

......

There are many mountain roads on Sword Mountain, but there is only one road to Sword Cliff, this road is narrow and can only be walked by three people side by side at a time, and it is very steep, the whole journey is five miles away, and many places can only be climbed by ropes to pass, Yang Qing is just an ordinary teenager, when he and Murong Qiuyu walked to Sword Cliff, the whole person was tired and collapsed, and he was in a cold sweat, even Murong Qiuyu was drenched in sweat, and at this time the sun was about to set.

Although the sun was setting, it did not affect people's enthusiasm for this place in the slightest, because there was a young man sitting on the edge of the Sword Cliff, he held his spear in his arms, and his eyes were firmly fixed on the distant sky.

He is the young city lord of Beiyuan City, the king of the Northern Canggun Qingyu Ge.

At this time, there are still many people here, just to see him knocking on the sky.

Yang Qing rested for a while, and came to the edge of the sword cliff with Murong Qiuyu, looking at the hazy sea of clouds, he felt as if he was about to fly away, and the whole person was always in a special artistic conception, as if he had seen through the mortal dust, and it was like going through the vicissitudes of a hundred years, and his heart was calm, without a little wave.

At this moment, Yang Qing was a little different, with an ethereal aura, which made Murong Qiuyu, who was standing next to him, show a look of surprise.

Qing Yuge, who was sitting on the side, also looked over, and looked at Yang Qing with a puzzled look.

Everyone on the Sword Cliff felt an inexplicable aura, and their eyes slowly fixed on Yang Qing.

Yang Qing stood there, dressed in a green robe, carrying a long sword, with fluttering clothes and hair, looking at the ethereal sky, as if he was going to go with the wind.

Murong Qiuyu looked at Yang Qing worriedly, and as soon as she wanted to speak, she found that the figure flashed, and Qing Yuge appeared next to her and shook her head, then picked up the spear and wrote three big characters on the ground.

Knock on the sky!

......

Yang Qing bowed slightly to the sky, and then shouted: "Junior Yang Qing, knock on the sky!"

Junior Yang Qing, knock on the sky and ......!

This voice echoed throughout the Sword Mountain, and it couldn't be dissipated for a long time, everyone on the Sword Cliff was stunned, and even the people below the bazaar were stunned when they heard this, and immediately, this news was transmitted in all directions like a storm, and Yang Qing, the Qingyu swordsman, actually knocked on the sky......

On the sword cliff, Yang Qing stood quietly, his eyes never leaving the sky.

After a long time, the ethereal sky finally revealed a ray of light, and then a staircase sprinkled with white light fell down from the void,

There are nine levels of stairs, each with a different pattern, and at the end of the staircase is a hazy door of light.

"You can't rely on any strength, you can only walk through this ladder with the body of a mortal, and if you pass, you will live, but it will be destroyed, you start to choose now!" A majestic voice came from the void, making people awe-struck and couldn't resist at all.

Yang Qing didn't hesitate and stepped on it.

When Yang Qing stepped on the first floor, he suddenly felt as if he had fallen into a thousand fogs, his head was groggy, and he could barely stand on his feet.

When Yang Qingta went up the second staircase, his body seemed to be pressed against a thousand catties of boulders, and he opened his mouth to spit out a mouthful of blood, and his feet almost burst open.

Yang Qing only knew that it was very painful, and he could hardly breathe in pain, but he was stubborn and resolutely stepped on the third layer.

This time, the veins in both of his feet were cracked, and the blood dripped down the void, which looked shocking.

Yang Qing almost gritted his teeth, his face turned pale, his forehead continued to sweat, and even his mouth began to be verbose.

"Come on, come on, come on!"

I don't know when, the people on the Sword Cliff are cheering for Yang Qing, hoping that he can knock successfully and create a miracle.

Murong Qiuyu covered her mouth tightly and looked at all this, tears had already wet her face.

After resting for a long time, Yang Qing stepped on the fourth layer again, and this time he almost fainted because his entire foot was broken.

"Haha...... Hahaha!" Yang Qing laughed maniacally, ignoring the blood that kept spilling from his mouth, and his other intact foot stepped heavily on the fifth floor.

His other foot was also broken, but as if it had become numb, he crawled on his hands, and he reached the sixth floor.

Poof! On the sixth floor, his chest silently exploded, revealing deep white bones.

Yang Qing has become a bloody man, there is no complete place around him, his consciousness has begun to blur, and only a will supports him.

"Old ...... Father...... I won't ...... Putting you down...... I will... Will... Letter...... Send!" Yang Qing said this sentence with all his strength, and his body moved up to the seventh layer.

"Bang!" this time his left hand blew up directly, and all the blood foamed out of his mouth.

"Daddy...... Mother...... Father... You... How...... How can you lose it... Drop ...... I. Yang Qing cried bitterly, tears and blood foam mixed together, and his body moved to the eighth layer.

"Bang bang!"

This time, his right arm was directly broken into three pieces, and it was redundant to take it back, even his eyes were closed, lying there motionless.

After a long time, Yang Qing couldn't stand up, and his whole body was lying in a pool of blood, as if he had lost all his life.

The people on the sword cliff were collectively silent, looking at the fallen body, with unwillingness and loss, and deep regret.

"Yang Qing ......"

Murong Qiuyu retreated, almost fell to the ground, covered her mouth with her hands and cried out in pain, she was blaming herself, she shouldn't have brought him here, and lost her life in vain.

Qing Yuge was also shaking his head and sighing, such a young hero, but he died young.

"You ...... Look!" Someone suddenly exclaimed, and everyone looked at Yang Qing's body blankly, moving slightly just now.

"Yang Qing!" Murong Qiuyu wiped away his tears, and his heart also rose to his throat.

"I ...... Still... Not... How...... Can die!" Yang Qing's closed eyes revealed a slit, and his tattered body slowly moved up to the ninth layer, rolled into the light gate at once, and then completely fainted, and his whole body seemed to have only a skin left.

"Yay, it worked, he made it!"

The people on the Sword Cliff couldn't help but jump up and hug each other and cheer, today witnessed the birth of a miracle, enough for them to brag about for many years.

Murong Qiuyu also cried with joy, crazy, she was glad that Yang Qing was alive, and she was proud that he had passed the Knock Heaven Pass.

She looked at Yang Qing's disappearing back, and said with a soft smile in her eyes: "When it comes, we will see you again!

Qing Yuge's nervous mind also breathed a sigh of relief at this moment, knocking on the Tianguan, he also saw it for the first time, which was very helpful to him, originally he was the one who knocked on the Tianguan today, but he didn't expect to become a witness to the Tianguan.

He left silently, because he knew that he couldn't do it now, and the difference was not his strength, but his fearless perseverance .......

"Yang Qing, knock on the sky, pass!"

A voice came from the void, and the nine-story staircase floating in the air gradually disappeared along with the light gate.
