Chapter 115: The Demon Swinger (1)
In the summer, I listened to the information of the Manying Society, and after the autumn, there was a big demon tide from the Northern Wilderness that was approaching the imperial capital, and the energy of the four major sects would be placed in the north at that time. Now that it is September and autumn, the sect should look north -- what other forces in the world will patronize the border of the miasma forest, the inland land of the Taisho Dynasty? Among the more than 100 jin pill qi, there are many people with solid roots and deep cultivation, and it is definitely not the foreign Jindan gathering in Yelang City -- the people behind it can dispatch as many powerful jin pills at a time, and the skills of the people behind them are no less than that of any sect.
Nangong Panshi and Yan Ruolin were also puzzled.
I patted the Jizo lion in my arms,
"After entering the city, you should listen attentively, and use your thoughts to convey to my heart what the people in the city say and communicate with their thoughts. ”
Outside the third gate of Yelang City, five Jindan people wearing black hats, brocade clothes, jade belts, and tokens are guarding the south gate. I saw the fourth person standing in the back position, I was familiar with it--that young man with a resolute expression wearing a double sword of two colors, wasn't it Lu Nuo who was cut off by me at Lingyamen! After a few months, his severed arm had grown again.
――What did the Sword Sect's Demon Wandering Courtyard do in the Miasma Forest? Do they need to work in this area, and what precepts of the Cultivation Realm do they perform?
At the same time, Lu Nuo also seemed to feel my gaze in the air, he raised his eyes to look at the wind snake, and suddenly his face was shocked, and he transmitted his divine thoughts to the first two Jindan people.
Those two were both the upper echelons of Jindan, and the silkworm eyebrow leader looked at us with his hands in his hands, and while listening to Lu Nuo's narration, the corners of his mouth smiled contemptuously. There is a sword box on this person's back, I don't know how many flying swords are hidden in it, and what kind of magical power the sword has; the cold-faced young man who is side by side with the silkworm eyebrow is dragging a bladeless heavy sword, and the sword body is unpretentious, like a piece of rusty iron; the Jindan person next to Lu Nuo is the middle level of Jindan, and he is playing with a flying knife with a blue blue heart in his hand, like a peacock feather; Lu Nuo is followed by a shy young man who looks slightly smaller than me, he is holding a three-foot Qingfeng, releasing the qi of the lower layer of Jindan.
("What kind of character is that beautiful woman in red in the sky, like a fairy?")
The shy boy approached the other four and asked quietly.
("That red-clothed girl is holding a golden sword with an arrogant face, she must be the daughter of Yan Yuan, the head of Kunlun, and the famous little dominatrix in our sect. Qin Xiao, don't look at people, don't look at faces, it's very difficult to communicate with this little witch. ”)
("Yes, the junior brother knows his mistake. ”)
The man who played with the blue knife was very close to the truth. Of course, I won't tell Yan Ruolin about this, otherwise we will fight directly on the Wind Snake first.
("The quiet young man on the wind snake is vaguely the face of the son of the Nangong family, the target of our Sword Sect's attention, he is a figure who may be born in Middle-earth......)
The flying knife man continued to add.
("It can't be Nangong Panshi!") According to the information of the Tongshi Hall of this sect, he is still recuperating from his injuries in the Lingya Gate Shangguan Family's City Lord's Mansion. ”)
The cold-faced man retorted.
("There are many people in the world who look alike, and you need not be surprised.") ”)
The silkworm-eyebrow man waved his hand and asked the flying knife man who I am. The knife man said he didn't know. The silkworm-eyed man turned to ask Lu Nuo, who looked uncertain, who I am. Lu Nuo hesitated, and his lips seemed to move.
The Jizo lions passed on their arguments to me exactly as they could. It is said in the book of war that knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles -- I have also received the intelligence advantage that Gongsun Wenlong enjoyed in the past.
Suddenly, we descended a gale-snake, and the three of us walked to the south gate with a poodle.
"Kunlun Outer Sect disciple Yuan Jiankong, I have seen all the Daoists of the Sword Sect!"
I disguised myself as gentle and courteous, showed my token, and saluted them one by one.
"Although I have not been a newcomer to the sect for a short time, I have already heard the deeds of your chivalrous names and immortals when I was drifting around the world--this is Elder Zhong Dajun who bears the sword box, Elder Luo Kedi is the one who holds the heavy sword, it is Senior Brother Shi Duan who makes the blue flying knife, and the least Senior Brother Qin Xiao--As for Senior Brother Lu Nuo, we had a discussion in Lingyamen a few months ago-Senior Brother Lu cherishes me as a backward and deliberately gives me a move and a half. Whenever I think of my youth and injuring Senior Brother Lu, I always can't sleep at night, and I think in my heart. ”
Their names, I blurted out one by one.
Lu Nuo's expression was embarrassed, and he looked to the ground under the eyes of the four of them
-- I thought about the stink of hiding from everyone that he was defeated by me three times and that one arm was broken.
"Uh-huh...... The former junior brother has not seen each other for several months, and he has entered the country quickly. Last time I made a mistake in Lingyamen, I had a mistake with you, and I thought it was a bad thing to cause misfortune. But now it seems that you have learned a lot of things through that battle, improved your cultivation, and the bad things have finally become good things! Haha, you have no intention of inserting willows into the shade!"
Lu Nuo gritted his teeth and laughed without smiling.
("Hah, I want to laugh—"I'm so smiling—"I
("Yan sù point.") Don't cover your stomach with your hands, isn't that funny?Hey!") I shouted at Yan Ruolin in my mind.
"I'm sorry, Princess Lin is a little scared. ”
I made an excuse and tried my best to keep my facial muscles from laughing.
"Well, Senior Brother Lu, you did the right thing! My sect is the number one in the world, the leader of the Dao Sect, and it is the duty of our Sword Sect to bring the backward Dao friends of the sect - the leading wild goose must be strong, and the little goose guarding the wings must also be strong. ”
Zhong Dajun, the silkworm eyebrower, stroked Lu Nuo's shoulder with one hand, put the other hand on my shoulder, and turned to me,
"Senior Brother Xiaoyuan, if you and Lu Nuo were unhappy before, they were all small dark clouds. Men have to be big-minded, such a little will blow away in a gust of wind. ”
Lu Nuo's eyes and I clashed and scolded each other in our thoughts
("We did one at a time.") He said.
("Hah!!") I want to beat him up. But this time I'm making great progress, and if I don't know how to kill Lu Nuo, I still don't want to make trouble in a strange place.
"Elder Zhong is extremely right!"
I lowered my eyebrows and said.
"Senior brother, I'm going to change my temper too. "Lu Nuo responds to the silkworm eyebrow more deferentially than I do.
Nangong Panshi showed the Sword Sect disciple the fake token that Shi Ziming had given to his inner disciple.
"This is my senior brother Nanshanqiao, the Divine Soul Master, who doesn't move around much in the world, and this time he will be the guide of the original junior brother and the nine difficult tests with me. ”
Yan Ruolin finally stopped laughing, and Zhengse said a nonsense to the five people.
Zhong Dajun laughed loudly, gave me a thumbs up, and let out a long whistle outside the third city, and then into the second city,
I turned my head and saw that the garrison at the south gate was taken over by another team of disciples from the Sword Sect's Demon Academy, and they were also five Jindan people with divine eyes like electricity.
"We, the Demon Wandering Courtyard and you, have never been masked, and the Demon Wandering Courtyard has never publicized the reputation of the executor. How do you know our names? Do you know the art of reckoning?"
The cold-faced young man named Luo Kedi suddenly asked.
- Haha, do you think I'm going to tell you that the Jizo Lion overheard your names from afar and told me?
I smiled mysteriously,
"Bad people do everything without leaving a name, and good things spread at home. ”
"Our Demon Wandering Academy's reputation is all over the five continents and three realms, and the junior disciples of the Kunlun Sect know that Shizun has our Phoenix Twelve Laws under him, so it's not surprising. ”
Zhong Dajun waved his hand.
――I remembered that Shi Ziming said that Lu Nuo's master is called Phoenix Sword Forest Daoming, and he is the first seat of the Sword Sect's Demon Academy, and legend has it that he is also a ruthless character in Yuanying.
A team of white elephants with six tusks paced towards us. Zhong Dajun invited me to climb the elephant,
"Let's go to the main residence of Yelang City, and the matter is said on the way. ”
The others followed Zhong Dajun and me to the elephant, and the elephant team entered the city.
The style of Yelang City is a southern Xinjiang atmosphere, the market is busy, the flow of people is like weaving, the men are wrapped in short clothes, and the women are heavily decorated. I also saw some strange-looking, strangely dressed figures haunting the city - some of the most beautiful women in costume carried snake baskets on their heads, carrying insect baskets with disturbing wriggling sounds in the baskets, and others wrapped in black canopies and humming crazy songs that they didn't know what to say. If you look closely, the faces of those people under their cloaks are like pear blossoms with rain, they have red threads tied around their necks like sheep fat and jade, and they are strung with treasure bags or copper coins on the line, and then look down at their necks, as if there is no trace of carcass in the cloak;
I know that Yelang City can't be compared with the people of Middle-earth, and the regular monsters can show their true colors in broad daylight - but the slogan of the Sword Sect on weekdays is "Eliminate demons, cut demons", even if there is not a single half-demon in the womb of a pregnant woman, it is ten times more radical than our Kunlun, but in Yelang City, it seems that he has to restrain because of something. The five people of the Demon Wandering Courtyard only had tense faces, and did not draw their swords or interrogate those suspected demons.
Zhong Dajun frowned and let out a long whistle on the opening elephant. His voice was like a storm and thunder, and like the drums and hammers of a great army at war. I repeatedly recited the "Shangqing Classic" silently, Yan Ruolin's face changed, and the lion covered his ears. Only Nangong Rock does not move.
The suspected demons in the downtown area have lurked, and those who have settled down to do business are swaying and making way out of the road.
"Ha, the demonic atmosphere is clear, and the world is scarce, and the gods are beautiful. ”
Zhong Dajun stroked his beard complacently and turned to us and said,
"Yelang City was originally not under the control of our Sword Sect, but it was opened up by a primordial infant of the Dragon and Tiger Sect branch. He and the three demon forces of the miasma forest are not mixed, making the demons and the righteous path coexist, and the real gold and rubble are confused. Former junior brother, you see, the women in the black cloak are all naked disciples, they don't wear anything inside, they specialize in luring righteous path disciples, sucking up the true yuan, do you say you should kill them! The woman in costume is a Five Poisons cultist, and there are Gu worms in the basket, and they feed on the blood of the living, do you say they should be killed! Those guys who have not taken off their hairy scale armor are even beast demons of the Seven Seventh Year Mountain, do you say they should be killed!"
-- Uncle doesn't need to coerce me to express it. The three major forces are bad guys, and I can hear the calluses coming out of my ears.
"Good, good. Ha ha. ”
I said.
He gave me another thumbs up,
"Senior Brother Xiaoyuan, it seems that you are a rare disciple of Kunlun who knows right from wrong! Although your sect and Dragon Tiger are also righteous paths, it is a pity that they are vague in small places. Those demon clans who have succumbed to us, they will not kill them all, but will harvest and naturalize the demons, expecting those demons to change their minds and forget the old things of five hundred years ago? From my Sword Sect's point of view, even the spirit beasts that have been cultivated since childhood should not be taught the transformation technique, and they should be planted with life and death talismans for the rest of their lives!"
The Jizo Lion shivered, and I held it tightly in my arms.
Suddenly, I remembered that according to Zhong Dajun's words, this city used to be a place where the branches of the Dragon and Tiger Sect and the three major forces coexisted and governed together, and forgave each other. Why did their Sword Sect suddenly come and insert a bar, and a Yuan Infant with a large array to rely on was captured? Could it be that the demon tide in the imperial capital had passed, and the Sword Sect's people were freed?
"Ah, Elder Zhong, is the current Yelang City Lord still the primordial infant of the Dragon and Tiger Sect? It seems that the four gates of the city are all in charge of your Sword Sect. I heard from the elders of the sect that this autumn emperor has a big demon tide. If you don't fight the demons, why did you go to the southwest of Middle-earth to play?"
I asked.
"That's a good question. If you go outside, you must first settle inside, but the forest wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop. The elites of our sect and other sects are still fighting with the demon clan in the imperial capital, and the war may be delayed for the winter—but there may be evil Dao Yuanying on the inland side who is taking advantage of the sect's energy diversion and planning a big upheaval. This time, our Sword Sect's Demon Wandering Courtyard dispatched nine Yuanying elders and more than 100 gold pills, led by my master Lin Daoming, to quell the chaos at the edge of this miasma forest, and chose Yelang City as the stronghold for advance and retreat. ”
Zhong Dajun snorted,
"That scum Yuanying who colluded with the demon doesn't know what to do, and he refuses to borrow my sect Yelang City. The eight Yuanying elders of our sect worked together to stabilize the operation of his protective formation, and my master personally entered the formation and killed this scum - now this city has no owner, and it is temporarily borrowed by our Sword Sect. ”
"Master is mighty! Kill the scum!"
The other four disciples of Lin Daoming raised their arms and shouted wildly, resounding to stop Xingyun.
Yan Ruolin and I looked at each other,
("No matter how scum the disciples of the Dragon and Tiger Sect are, they can't be executed by their Sword Sect, right?, does the sect have such a statute or covenant?") I asked her.
("Of course not!"Of course not!) Murong Guantian, the great demon of the Sword Sect a hundred years ago, only the people of the Sword Sect can kill him.) The other sects can only announce that they will not accept it, how can they kill it on behalf of their own sect!) The red-clothed girl's face showed anger.
"Elder Zhong's master is not afraid that the people of the Dragon and Tiger Sect will make trouble?"
I clenched my fists and asked with a smile.
"Ha, in order to convince the cultivators of the world, in this operation, Shizun also invited Yan Caixia, the master of the Dragon and Tiger Sect's Demon Academy, and the Jindan disciples under his courtyard. The master of the Yan Courtyard was speechless to the head of the scum Yuanying, and what else could others say. ”
Chung Dae-jun laughed.
"It's just a pity: Yan Caixia is an obstacle, and after finishing this major event to quell the chaos, we will also return Yelang City to the newly launched city lord of the Dragon and Tiger Sect. We were only halfway through the cleansing of the demons, but we had to stop, and the remnants of the demons in the city had picked up a dog's life. ”
The cold-faced man Luo Kedi sighed.
Zhong Dajun patted me on the shoulder,
"Senior Brother Xiaoyuan, one more person and one more strength, you three Kunlun disciples will also join our crusade team! This time we will find the entrance to Yunmeng City and kill all the evil ways that have gathered there and echoed with the demon tide to plot chaos!"
Nangong Panshi and I exchanged glances
――Isn't Cloud Dream City the place where his heart is stored?
The elephant hissed, and we arrived at the main residence of Yelang City.
