After breaking up with them, I went to Falling Rain City according to Jue's entrustment. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because I was traveling alone, I naturally had to be much faster than the carriage, and I rushed back to Kongming City at dusk.

Seeing that it was getting late, I didn't hurry, but entered Kongming City, ready to find an inn to rest.

When I entered through the gate of Kongming City, I couldn't help but think about this familiar scene.

My memory of Kongming City is still stuck in the last time I was here with Wuchen.

That is, the last time I went to Kongming City, Cao Chengyan and I fought in the small bamboo forest in the north of the city, was seriously injured and dying, lost the demon sword, and was finally invited by a mysterious person to come to the master of Kongjian to save him.

Now that I think about it, it feels like it happened yesterday.

However, speaking of Cao Chengyan, I think of another thing, Cao Wuxian said that Cao Chengxian died in the small bamboo forest of Kongming City!

Now that I'm in Kongming City, I have to go to the place where Cao Chengyan died in battle, I naturally can't go to pay tribute to him, but I'm very confused about the identity of the person who killed him.

I have this kind of thought, but now that it's getting late, this matter can only be put aside for now.

Touching the scene in my heart, I couldn't help but think of Wuchen, so I went to live at Fengyi Inn, the largest inn in Kongming City.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, the room where Wuchen and I stayed last time was empty, so I stayed there.

I still remember the little second brother in the inn, but he doesn't remember me anymore.

This can't be helped, after all, the inn has to entertain so many people every day, and he can't remember them one by one.

After spending only a relatively peaceful night in the inn, I left the Fengyi Inn.

It's just because no one bothered me, but unfortunately my heart wasn't at all at ease.

When I was at the Fengyi Inn, there was Wuchen by my side, and now I am alone, not only that, but Wuchen was forced to get engaged to the eldest grandson Qisi more than a month later!

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but burn anger and murderous intent in my heart, these miscellaneous things, when I arrived in Los Angeles, they would have to pay the price of blood.

Because of the thought of Wuchen, I couldn't sleep at all, so I tried to integrate the bloody sword path of the sword heart technique in the inn room.

Although it is said that it has been integrated, I still have to continue to practice the Blood Demon Sword Dao, and when I have mastered it completely, I can integrate the Blood Demon Sword Dao and the Nine Xuan Sword Technique.

The Nine Xuan Sword Technique is the fourth sword technique in the world, although there is a huge gap with the twenty-third ranked Blood Demon Sword Technique, but if it is fused together, it can always bring some benefits, this is the domineering of the Sword Heart Technique!

I don't know if it's because of the anger and killing intent caused by Wuchen, but when I practiced the Blood Demon Sword Dao, I felt an inexplicable fit and comfort, which made me feel a lot more confident in integrating into the new sword technique.

After leaving the Fengyi Inn, I went directly to the small bamboo forest in the north of the city.

When I first went there, the scene I saw hadn't changed much from before, but when I got to the location of the small bamboo forest in my memory, I was dumbfounded.

What a small bamboo forest, as if it never existed, as far as the eye can see, you can only see a large open space, and there is an old man with a basket and a big black hat on his head.

Seeing that the small bamboo forest was gone, I had a doubt in my heart, and when I stepped forward, I saw the old man holding a basket in one hand and a small hoe in the other, as if he was digging something here.

Glancing around, I immediately saw that there were still some bamboo roots-like things on the ground, as if the bamboo here had been destroyed.

I had some guesses, but I decided to ask the old man what he was digging up in this place, so he might know a little bit about it!

"Old man, excuse me!"

As soon as I spoke, the old man put down what he was doing, dug his little hoe into the earth, and then looked up at me.

I don't know why, this old man was stunned for a moment when he saw me, but I read something incredible in his eyes.

"Does he know me?"

Although I had such a guess in my heart, I didn't ask it right away, waiting for this old man to speak first.

After being stunned for a moment, the old man reacted, smiled kindly at me, and said, "Young man, you should have been here before, right?"

Hearing him say this, my guess in my heart immediately became confirmed, and this old man really knew me.

However, in my impression, I didn't meet this old man before I met Cao Chengyan.

"Old man, do you know me?"

The old man pursed his lips a little strangely, and said with a smile: "How can I know you, I don't even know your last name, how do you say I know you!"

As soon as the old man said this, I immediately knew that my question was a bit abrupt, and I really didn't know what to say for a while.

I didn't speak, and the old man continued to smile and said, "I don't know you, but I saw you before, in this small bamboo forest, I saw you in a coma and was carried out by a big monk from the small bamboo forest, followed by a girl who looked like a fairy!"

His statement is the same as what Wuchen told me at the beginning, so this old man's words are basically credible.

Although this old man clearly won't lie to me, I won't abandon the most basic vigilance against people and things.

After the old man finished speaking, I asked the old man, "Old man, do you know how this bamboo forest disappeared?"

Speaking of the disappearance of the bamboo forest, the old man seemed to be very angry, and said slightly angrily: "Speaking of this, I am a little angry, and the good bamboo forest has been lost by someone, how can a person like me who digs bamboo shoots for a living live!"

"Uh......"

What the old man said at this time really made me cry and laugh, and he seemed to have forgotten the point of my question......

"Old man, do you know how this bamboo forest disappeared?"

When I asked, the old man looked at me with a strange expression, the expression on his face remained unchanged, and he was still smiling.

Why did this kind appearance fall into my eyes, but it made me feel a little treacherous inexplicably.

Just when I was puzzled, the old man raised his hand to me, put his thumb and forefinger together, and gently rubbed each other, and the expression on his face changed from kindness to a taste similar to "you know".

Looking at him, the doubts in my heart were even greater, I really couldn't understand what this old man was playing, and what did he mean by this action?

I didn't say anything for a moment, but the old man continued to look at me like this, and he didn't speak, we just looked at each other.

After a while, the old man's movements slowed down, and his face, which had been quite kind, became gloomy, and the expression on his face became more and more ugly.

After a moment's hesitation, I slowly asked, "Uh...... What's wrong with you, old man?"

The movements in his hands were put down at this time, his face was also darkened, and he said coldly: "Boy, you really don't understand or pretend not to understand!"

These words immediately blinded me, what does it mean to really don't understand or pretend not to understand, what do I understand, what should I understand......

"Hey, you kid, ask someone my age about things, don't you want to pay me some saliva!"

After talking for a long time, this old man turned out to be asking for money, and I was speechless in my heart, and said in my heart, if you want money, you just say it, you have nothing to do, and it looks like someone can understand it, isn't this adding to the chaos!

I can think about this kind of thing in my heart, if I take it out, this old man will turn his face directly to me if he can't keep it.

"How much do you want, old man?"

Although I was speechless in my heart, I didn't have much to say about this old man's words, and I came to ask him, he really had no obligation to answer my questions, and he should give me some money.

When I finished speaking, I saw the old man's eyes sweep up and down my body for a while, and finally he looked at me and said, "Boy, I don't think you are a person who is short of money, so you can give me a tael of silver!"

I've never had a big idea about money, as long as I use it myself, more or less, I really don't care.

Now this old man has made a price, there is nothing to say, I will give the money, who let me ask for others.

When he put away the one or two pieces of silver I handed over, the old man's originally gloomy old face smiled like a chrysanthemum, and even his eyes changed when he looked at me.

"Little brother, what do you want to inquire about?"

Hearing this sudden change of title, my heart to vomit blood is gone!

At first, he seemed to call me a young man, and when he knew that I had something to ask for him, he immediately became a brat, and this smell was especially evident when I didn't understand what he meant.

Now that he has received my money, he will immediately become a little brother, and the look in his eyes has changed from treacherous to sincere, what else can I say......

"Old man, I want to know how this bamboo forest disappeared. ”

The old man patted his head with a smile and said, "Look at my memory, this bamboo forest disappeared in one day or two after I met you!"

"It's strange to say this, my family lives on the edge of the North City Gate, although I was a little unwell in those days, and I didn't go to the small bamboo forest to look for bamboo shoots, but I didn't see the army or anything from here, nor did I see the people who cut wood and bamboo from here, and I didn't see anyone pulling the bamboo away!"

"But that's how strange things are, when I come to dig bamboo shoots again, let alone bamboo, I don't see a single fresh bamboo leaf, and only the bamboo roots are left. ”

"These bamboo roots are also weird, I have been digging bamboo shoots for nearly 20 years, and I have never seen a bamboo root that will break out like this!"

As if afraid that I wouldn't believe it, the old man pointed to some bamboo roots next to us when he spoke.

"You see, this fracture is not smooth, which is enough to show that it will never be cut from the bottom by a sharp blade! And the cortex on the bamboo root is still intact, which means that it has not been broken. ”

"In my opinion, this is like encountering some powerful force, and it will all be broken with a snap, but this is not very reasonable......"

Although the old man is struggling, I already have the answer in my heart, according to this situation, this should be the place where Cao Chengyan fought to his death, not someone moved the body here.

The previous battle between me and Cao Chengyan had never produced such a big movement.

can destroy this small bamboo forest cleanly, only the sword base realm Cao Chengyan who uses the demon sword fall, and another realm above Cao Chengyan, the peak of the sword base realm, or the Dacheng realm collide with Cao Chengyan.

Other than that, I really can't think of any way to wipe out all the bamboo, not just the bamboo, but the one that doesn't leave a trace.

"Hey, little brother, are you listening to me!"

The old man's call woke me up from my thoughts, and as soon as I heard the old man's words, I nodded to the old man.

The old man also nodded, and at the same time said to me, "Little brother, do you have anything else to ask?"

I thought about it for a while, and thought it should be much worse, so I said to the old man, "Old man, I have nothing to ask about! ”

I saw the old man laughing and shaking his head, and at the same time took the hat, carried the basket on his back, and then picked up the hoe on the ground and threw it to the basket, as if he was going home.

"Little brother, if it's okay, I'll go first. ”

"Old man, please take a please, I still have to take a look here. ”

As soon as I said this, the old man immediately walked away, and he had no intention of staying.

I followed and wandered around the bamboo forest, and after not finding anything, I left here and returned to the Fengyi Inn.

I went back to the inn and got my horse that was still in the inn stable, and I went straight to Falling Rain City.

When I went, I forgot one thing, Yanyu said before that the road from Kongming City and Zhushui City to Luoyu City couldn't be walked.

I was in too much of a hurry, I didn't even think about it, I went over there when I got out of Kongming City, and then I was in trouble!
