Chapter 58: The Lake of Life and Death

Zhang Shaoyang's death was very miserable, as if his whole body blood and qi had been drained, like dead wood.

Chu Tianxing didn't get any useful news from him, but he didn't understand why this person was the same as Xue Ping, even if he lost his life, he had to help himself, didn't his father die in their hands?

"People die greatly, and you will have an explanation with my father when you get below. ”

Chu Tianxing hastily buried Zhang Shaoyang's body and embarked on the journey to Shifang Temple.

Along the way, there was a lot less pursuit of the Four Elephant Gate, but it was covered with ice and snow along the way, and naturally there was no scenery at all, until it came to the edge of the pool of life and death.

The climatic conditions here are somewhat special, and it seems to rain all year round, and it is surrounded by water-loving vegetation such as juniper and peony.

Before coming, Chu Tianxing inquired, there are no villages and towns around here, because the pond here is shrouded in fog all the year round, which is not convenient for fishing, and because of the existence of Shifang Temple, people in the rivers and lakes often die here, and the people are not at peace, so they have moved to other places one after another.

Hearing that it rains here all year round, Chu Tianxing bought a hat in a nearby village and town, and bought some food to observe here for a day, and then make plans early the next morning.

Who knew that he got lost again, and it was not until it was dark that he reached the pool of life and death, and the surrounding area was deserted, and there were only a few abandoned old houses to settle in.

"I'm going to spend the night here tonight. As soon as Chu Tianxing opened the door, the smell of mold was full of it, and he couldn't choke him, and he would definitely get sick if he stayed like this all night.

I had to put the wine and meat in the house first, opened all the doors and windows and went out to look for firewood, and after a long day of work, everything was finally ready.

After lighting a bonfire to warm up for a while, Chu Tianxing reached out to touch the wine and meat on the table, and this one was empty.

"It's strange, it's clearly here. Chu Tianxing went back to the fire and picked up a torch, and looked around at it, there was still a faint mark on the table, it seemed that there were other people here.

"I don't know which hero it is, come out and see it!" Chu Tianxing didn't expect this shout to call out anyone, if there were still people around, he just wanted to tell the other party that he had no malicious intent.

Sure enough, not long after he finished speaking, there was a sound on the beam.

Through the firelight, I can see the people clearly, and the coarse linen clothes are five short figures, and a pair of eyes are like two bright lights in the dark night.

"Why does this friend want to take my wine and meat?" Chu Tianxing knew that the inconspicuous middle-aged man in front of him was not ordinary, he didn't make the slightest sound at such a close distance, not even a gasp, and it would take at least thirty years of internal strength cultivation to reach this realm.

"You won't need it anyway. ”

When Chu Tianxing heard this, he became vigilant, and the person in front of him was not only strong in martial arts, but also seemed to be a bad person.

"Young man, I still advise you after eating your wine and meat, go back. ”

"Seniors, juniors must retrieve the Biluo Sword. ”

"If only you call me a river crosser. ”

Chu Tianxing clenched his fists and asked, "Senior, I want to go to Shifang Temple, please make it clear." ”

The person who crossed the river quickly raised his hand and slapped Chu Tianxing on the chest, and Chu Tianxing didn't have time to dodge and hit it with one palm.

Syllable!

With a crisp sound, Chu Tianxing fell back and exited, leaving a row of footprints.

The river crosser shook his head: "With your age, this kind of cultivation is already very remarkable, but if you want to enter the Shifang Temple, you still have to die nine times, you should try again in ten years, so as not to give your life in vain." ”

Chu Tianxing outside the door had already set up a posture.

"Senior, please advise!"

Saying that, there was wind under his feet, and a long fist hit the river crosser.

The people who crossed the river did not dodge, and with their deep internal strength, they punched back again.

Chu Tianxing spurted out a mouthful of blood and flew out upside down, and the voice of the river crosser came from behind him: "Young man, why are you so persistent. ”

Before the words fell, the river crosser felt that there was wind in front of him, so he hurriedly turned his head a little late, and half of the head curtain was cut off and fell in front of him.

"Traceless Sword Technique, are you a disciple of the Swordless Guest?" the river crosser hurriedly motioned for Chu Tianxing to stop.

"The junior Chu Tianxing is a disciple of the Swordless Guest. ”

The people who crossed the river looked at Chu Tianxing carefully: "Like, too similar, you are Chu Boyan's son?"

Chu Tianxing saw that this river crosser could tell so many secrets about himself, he must know something.

"Seniors, can you tell the juniors what happened back then?"

The crosser of the river thought for a moment and said: "Since the swordless man didn't tell you, I can't even say it, and you will naturally know when the time comes." ”

Chu Tianxing was a little frustrated: "When is the time ripe?"

The river crosser smiled: "Your current martial arts cultivation is average in my eyes, when will you be able to defeat a master of my level within ten moves, you will also have the qualification to take revenge, there are also some rumors about you in the rivers and lakes recently, but how did you defeat Ouyang Chuzhong?"

Chu Tianxing felt that Ouyang Chuzhong was just a master of the older generation, and now it seemed that his strength was not very profound.

"That old monster's internal strength is equal to mine, and in the end, I suddenly attacked with the subtlety of the Traceless Knife Technique. ”

The river crosser raised his eyebrows: "If Ouyang Chuzhong was so easy to kill, could he still slip away from under your master back then?"

Chu Tianxing didn't dare to say truthfully: "The knife wound of the family teacher back then caused him to have to survive all these years, so the younger generation could kill him by chance." ”

The river crosser shook his head again: "Ouyang Chuzhong has a recipe for victory, he came here ten years ago, and fought with me for two days and two nights, if there are still old injuries on his body, he will never come." ”

Chu Tianxing also felt a little strange when he heard him say this, remembering that Ouyang Chuzhong didn't seem to have the intention of running away at that time, but seemed to be bent on dying.

The people who crossed the river seemed to think of something, and their eyes became frightened: "Could it be ...... It seems that if you want to take revenge, you must have the strength to defeat me within three moves. ”

Before Chu Tianxing could digest the words of the river crosser, the river crosser hurriedly asked, "Have you gotten the recipe for victory?"

Chu Tianxing shook his head: "The secret to victory was obtained by a person named Qing Xuanzi, and he is now chasing me everywhere." ”

Hearing Chu Tianxing say this, the people who crossed the river breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, if you practice this winning trick, it will be troublesome." ”

"Why?" Chu Tianxing was even more stunned at this time, everyone on the rivers and lakes was vying for the recipe to win, even the knifeless people wanted Chu Tianxing to get it, but the people who crossed the river said such things.

"The recipe for victory comes from the Shifang Temple, which is divided into two volumes of yin and yang, and the yin scroll absorbs the cultivation skills of others will increase dramatically in a short period of time, while the internal force of the yang scroll does not advance but retreats after the cultivation. ”

Chu Tianxing seemed to understand: "What do you mean, Ouyang Chuzhong's scroll is a yang scroll? But Qing Xuanzi's cultivation has indeed risen sharply. ”

The people who crossed the river seemed to be intent on playing tricks on Chu Tianxing.

"Ouyang Chuzhong's winning formula is the Yin Scroll, the cultivation will rise sharply in a short period of time, and then if it can't be channeled, it will explode and die, just like the lake of life and death in front of him, it can only hold so much water, and the water will spread out as soon as the flood season arrives. ”

"This is a strange exercise. ”

"The reason why the internal force decreases after the Yang Scroll cultivation is because the consumed internal force is used to expand the meridians, and when the time is ripe, it can absorb the internal force of the Yin Scroll cultivator. ”

Chu Tianxing gasped after hearing this, this exercise is really evil, and to some extent, it is more vicious than Hehuan Gong.

is like the current Qing Xuanzi, who thinks he has obtained divine skills, but once he matures, he will be absorbed by others, and in the end he just makes a wedding dress for others.

Moreover, after the Yin Scroll is cultivated, it will definitely kill many martial arts people, and when the Yang Scroll holder kills him, it will be fame and fortune.

"Okay, let me ask you again, do you still want to break into the Shifang Temple?"

"Of course!"
