Chapter 24 (32)

After walking for a while, I saw an old tree with lush branches and leaves, recalling that in the past, whenever it was scorching heat, I often came here with Li Yijie to enjoy the coolness, and the two sat side by side in the shade of the tree and chatted, and felt sour in my nose. But the tree looks very strange today, and it is difficult to discern what it is.

Dark Night also noticed the big tree, looked at it twice, and sighed: "Sure enough, the reaction is different! What a deep skill!" Nangong Xue was puzzled, and said strangely: "What are you talking about? This big tree is still good, even if someone really fights here, how can you see the depth of the enemy's skill?"

Dark Night Death sneered, "What do you know? This tree is already dead, I'll let you see it clearly." Raising the folding fan and waving, Nangong Xue exclaimed, and clearly saw a crack in the waist of the tree, and half of the thick trunk fell down, which was much faster than when she cut down the tree. But this is also a common memory between her and Li Yijie, so distressed, before she could make an accusation, she dragged her sleeve to the trunk in the dark night, and said, "Look for yourself." ”

Nangong Xue looked over reluctantly, and saw that the outside of the trunk was the same as before, but the inside was almost hollow, and she was not a little angry, and exclaimed: "This is ...... How can this ......" Dark Night said: "When the two sides made a move, the sword qi touched the trunk of the tree, as if a high-strength internal power penetrated and penetrated directly to the inside. The center of the tree is dead, and all that remains is a slow decay from the inside out, and it won't take a few more days, which is much more difficult than cutting it down on the spot. ”

Nangong Xue was shocked and said, "This ...... The enemy is simply more powerful than you can imagine...... All...... It's all my bad ......" Dark Night said: "Are you qualified to blame yourself? If it is a strong enemy that even your master and senior brother can't deal with, it will be useless for you to be there, but you will be sent to death in vain." ”

Nangong Xue was so anxious that she was about to shed tears again, only to feel dizzy, and she couldn't bear it in the dark, and said: "You don't have to be nervous, this enemy may not be so powerful." To be able to achieve this level, there are no more than two possibilities, one is that his own skills are extremely strong and he intends to demonstrate with this, and the other is that his martial arts are mediocre, only with the help of the Afterimage Sword Skill. I don't believe it, how can such a little hairy girl as rumored have such great ability? At that time, as long as she leaves the Remnant Sword, she will become a waste. ”

While the two continued to hurry, Nangong Xue was still relieved, and said worriedly: "Does the Afterimage Sword have the divine power to improve people's martial arts? But since she is holding it, she is a master of swordsmanship, how can others take the sword at close range? I am not afraid of collapsing when I say it, my Huashan faction is from top to bottom, few martial arts are really strong, and even my master is seriously injured under her sword...... But what is the reason for this? If everyone is not attentive to sword practice, take my senior brother as an example, every time the master assigns homework, none of them have completed more hard than him, he is the leader of our faction, but once he arrives in the rivers and lakes, martial arts have become a three-legged cat, and it is barely possible to protect himself, in case he meets a real master, he will be defeated in three moves and two styles. ”

Dark Night said: "The Huashan faction can be self-contained, it must have its own uniqueness, and the martial arts of your founding ancestor must be high." It's just that when teaching disciples, the metaphors are incorrect, resulting in one generation being inferior to the next, and many subtle moves are also lost in this. Your master Meng Anying can't learn by himself, and he can't teach his disciples, so he can only create a group of little babies like you who are not proficient in learning. He is also ridiculous enough, he wasted the martial arts of his own sect, and used the Sacrificial Shadow Sect to teach Li Yijie, he was able to get the position of the leader of the alliance with a little bit of fur from my sect's secrets. But I didn't expect that a martial arts master would be so shameless that he would become a thief and steal the secrets of other factions. Although I am no longer a member of the Shadow Worship Sect, I still have to take back the secret book, thinking that the first sect leader has done his best. ”

Nangong Xue hurriedly said: "Even though my master is not in a thousand ways, this one is that you misunderstood him." He didn't send someone to steal, that's ...... It was a thief in your sect, someone wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of your enslavement, so he stole the secret book, and prepared to escape with others, but my senior brother and I found out and killed him, and the secret book came into our hands. But there are still a lot of difficult points to understand, so I will ask the master, although he is not returned in the end, but you also have to understand, the person who learns martial arts, let him not see it, if you see the profound sword spectrum, how can you not want to find a reason to practice? When the various sects teach their disciples martial arts, they have always taken extremely strict precautions, and it is still inevitable that people will learn them secretly, isn't it the same reason? The master cannot carry forward the Huashan faction, and he must be very anxious in his heart. I...... I'm here, I'm sorry to give you a reparation. ”

Dark Night snorted coldly: "Even so, Meng Anying is not a good thing. Nangong Xue didn't want to listen to him accuse the master, but if she really wanted to say what was good about the master, she couldn't find any defensible evidence, so she could only be silent.

Dark Night Death said: "Don't think about it too beautifully, decent martial arts pay attention to steady and steady, and after practice, it will be deeply rooted from then on." The martial arts of the Shadow Sacrifice Sect are not really strong, but they are quick to get started, and then use special mental methods to stimulate their maximum potential, but as time goes by, they will definitely lose their true element. Let your senior brother stop practicing as soon as possible, how can there be such a good thing in the world that is not earned for nothing?"

Nangong Xue was startled, didn't know how to answer, and thought, "He...... Is this concerned about my senior brother? The two of them have never been on good terms, so how can they suddenly have a good heart? But the practice of the Demon Sect's kung fu is harmful, and most of them are true, so I must not let my senior brother practice again. ”

After walking a short distance, I finally arrived at the top of the mountain, and a view of the universe in front of me was now in front of me. Nangong Xue had practiced here countless times before, and when she saw it again at this time, she felt like she was in a different world. As soon as he wanted to rush in, he heard some noisy voices from the hall, which seemed to be crowded with thousands of people, and it was difficult to distinguish friend and foe for a while, and he felt nervous in his heart, and said, "What if that demon sect demon girl ...... What should I do if I haven't left the mountain yet?"

Dark Night snorted coldly: "What are you afraid of? She didn't leave just right, I want to see who this demon girl is, and she is also worthy of holding the Afterimage Sword?" After speaking, he bypassed her and entered the hall directly. Although Nangong Xue was kind-hearted, she also hated the murderous assassin at this time, and said: "That's right, you should kill her when you see her, so as not to let her harm the martial arts again." ”

As soon as I stepped into Guanyu, I saw a group of people surrounded by black pressure, crowded and crowded. The costumes are different, and they seem to be different sects, and judging from the costumes, they are all junior disciples. Everyone's eyes were fixed on one place, and they didn't even pay attention to the sudden intrusion of Nangong Xue and Dark Night. Nangong Xue secretly thought: "If there is an enemy who comes in and sneaks in at this time, with their vigilance, can they really catch them all?"

Through the slight gap in the crowd, I vaguely saw a person lying on the bed, covered with a heavy quilt, with a pale face and a gossamer, it was Master Meng Anying. Thinking of the strength when the master was angry and ordered her to go up the mountain and face the wall immediately, and she could not return for the rest of her life, and then compared with the decadence in front of her, my heart felt even more sour. Li Yijie half-knelt beside him, holding a bowl of soup and medicine, and pleaded: "Master, just drink a little medicine." Although you have suffered a sword wound, the necessary conditioning is still indispensable......"

Meng Anying closed her eyes and ignored him. Li Yijie was anxious and sad, and said, "Master, I know that you blame the disciple in your heart, but don't get along with your body." He scooped up a spoonful with a spoon, slowly handed it to Meng Anying's mouth, and said, "Master, seeing you like this, the disciple is more uncomfortable than anything else, and I really can't wait to suffer these hardships on your behalf......! The disciples also ......"

Meng Anying closed her lips tightly, and all the medicine that Li Yijie fed flowed down the corners of her mouth. Li Yijie was so anxious that he raised his sleeves and went to wipe him. Meng Anying pinned his head to the side, avoiding him to show his goodwill, and a deep voice came out: "Stay away from me, I don't have a disciple like you." Ha, you are the leader of the martial arts alliance, all the heroes in the world have to be under your command, when it comes to position, I am also your subordinate, I can't afford to serve me like this. ”

Li Yijie panicked: "Master, what are you talking about? Honoring you and serving you are all what a disciple should do, you must not say anything like a boss and a subordinate to kill a disciple! Even if the disciple is wrong, please give me a chance to repent!" Meng Anying snorted coldly: "You are not wrong! What is wrong with you?"

Li Yijie said: "The disciple's mistake is that he should not associate with people in the Demon Sect, and violated the precept of 'not making friends with evil spirits' in the door rules. Disciple...... Shouldn't ...... For his own selfishness, he surrendered to the imperial court, so that the heroes of the world would be leaderless. ”

Meng Anying sighed and said coldly: "It doesn't matter if you like to be a minion, but first of all, you should correct your own identity." You are the leader of the martial arts alliance, but when everyone was determined to resist the Qing Dynasty, you first took the lead in lifting the heel of the Manchurian emperor, this kind of action, where did the face of the heroes of the world go? It also boosted the morale of the Tartars, and then everyone looked down on us!"

Li Yijie was reprimanded by his master, tears flowed for a long time, he fell to the ground with a thud, raised the soup bowl high, and said: "Master, the disciple is true that he knows his mistakes! As long as you are willing to forgive the disciple and drink this medicine first, the disciple is willing to give up the position of the leader of the alliance, and then ...... I have thought about it all my life in Huashan. The last sentence was said through gritted teeth, thinking that he would never be able to see Shen Shiyun's face again, and his heart was in sharp pain.

Meng Anying's face still did not soften, and said: "Do you think that as long as you abdicate, all the disasters will be solved satisfactorily? Yijie, you can't help but think about things too simply! You are still their alliance leader, but you are no longer a disciple of Huashan, Meng is ...... today. I broke off this master-apprentice relationship with you! I only worked hard for many years, but I raised you in vain and hurt you in vain...... Huashan Temple is small, and it can't afford to be a great Bodhisattva for you. ”

Li Yijie's heart was like a knife when he heard this, he kowtowed to the ground again and again, and said: "If you can't make the master dissipate, the disciple will not be able to kneel for a long time!" Thinking of the sword forest back then, Meng Anying learned that he had a very good relationship with the young master of the Demon Sect, and he was also furious, claiming to expel him from the master. Later, it was because of that secret book that the master finally changed his mind, but this matter was also like a dark cloud pressing on his chest, and he said: "No matter how you punish me, the disciples are willing to accept it, but don't deny me as a disciple!"

Meng Anying said: "How can Meng be worthy of being your master? You are no longer my disciple, so what qualifications do I have to punish you?"

Li Yijie looked at the soup bowl, and then at Meng Anying, his fists tightened fiercely, and he really wanted to hit his head on this bed board to show his sincerity. was at a loss, and suddenly a woman shouted behind him: "Master!" Li Yijie was so familiar with this voice, he couldn't believe that he could reunite with her at this time, turned around slowly, and sure enough, he saw Nangong Xue's thin figure standing timidly at the door. Fang wanted to come forward to recognize each other, but saw that the person next to her died in the dark, it seemed that he was walking up the mountain, and the sentence "Xue'er" was stuck in his throat, but he couldn't call it.

Sha Qi didn't have as much awkwardness as him, and when he saw Nangong Xue, he exclaimed: "Senior Sister Nangong is back! ”

As soon as he stopped screaming, the whole room immediately turned their eyes to look at him. Some people have heard Lu Qian, the master of Qingtian Village, claim that Nangong Xue of Huashan is his wife. In ancient times, women's names were extremely important, and even their names should not be easily told to outsiders, but now such filthy words can be heard, and it is expected that there is no wind and no waves, and they all want to see what kind of appearance this shameless woman is. There are also some people who don't know Nangong Xue at all, just to watch the fun.
