Chapter 18: The Girl Purple Cloud
Chapter 18 The Girl Ziyun
I put the Frost Sword back into its scabbard, wrapped the soft sword back around my waist, and turned around, while the leader let go of his saber in front of everyone, and slowly got up with his right hand over his chest. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info His left hand hung limply, as if he had been paralyzed for a moment.
My gaze fell on his chest first, and I saw a long sword mark left by the Frost Sword on his golden armor.
His palm covered only part of the sword marks, and blood was pouring from his fingers and sword marks.
"Thank you for your mercy!"
The leader bowed slightly in thanks to me, and I shook my head, avoiding his salute.
In fact, with the sword just now, I could easily cut his throat with just a little more force, but I only left a sword mark on his chest. We all know this, which is why he thanked me for the bow.
We have no grievances and no enemies, but we are forced to fight, so naturally I will not take his life, I have no intention of killing him, and I have no mercy from my subordinates!
"By the way, I have something I want to ask, I wonder if I can?" I asked as he straightened up.
"Please!"
"Did you create this Qingxuan Diversion Knife, or did you learn it from somewhere else?"
I asked this question that I was very concerned about, and I was still very interested in this flawed, but also relatively good sword technique! I was not so much interested in sword art as I was interested in people who changed swordsmanship to sword art.
"Haha...... ......"
The leader was about to laugh, but he pulled at the wound, and the pain was unbearable for a moment, so he had to look bitter and chuckle awkwardly.
"This sword technique was taught by the Great Priest!"
The soldier who had been standing behind the leader and had walked up to the leader said to me.
"Oh!"
When I heard the title of Da Si Ming again, a lot of curiosity and speculation appeared in my heart, this Da Si Ming is a powerful person! It is really not easy to change a set of Qing Xuan Diting Knife from the Qingxuan Diversion Sword.
"I wonder if I can enter the Heavenly Pavilion now?"
"That's it!"
The leader responded, and then told the soldiers to disperse to make way for me to the gate, and the soldiers gave way to me with awe.
"Thank you!"
Seeing that the matter was over, I clenched my fist at the leader, smiled, and turned away.
"Wait!"
The leader called me to stop, and then said to the soldiers on the side, "Give him my sword!"
"This ......"
When the soldier heard the chief's words, he hesitated a little, and then took off his sword and gave it to me, as the leader had requested.
"What do you mean, Chief?"
"I destroyed your sword just now, so take this sword as an apology!"
I was about to say no, but before I could say no, he said, "Don't say no! I want to make you a friend, so let's take it as a gift!"
"If that's the case......"
I hesitated, but decided to take the sword, but I also took the soft sword from my waist, handed it to the soldier, and said with a smile: "Come and don't be rude! ”
Hanging the sword on my waist, I clasped my fists at the leader and said, "Idle swordsman, Li Longchen." ”
"I'm the head of the Heavenly Pavilion Guard, Dongfang Haoqiong. ”
Knock knock knock......
At that moment, a rapid bell rang.
Hearing this bell, Dongfang Haoqiong's face changed, and he hurriedly said: "Brother Li, go in! This is the bell of the closing of the Heavenly Pavilion, after you enter the Heavenly Pavilion, you can see the Purple Cloud Priest by entering the rightmost road! Brother Li, see you in the future!"
I was speechless when the soldiers pushed me into the gate, and they closed it after them!
At this time, it was already dark, but there were many candles lit in the Heavenly Pavilion, so that there was still light inside. In the candlelight, I took a look at the place, and it was the same architectural style as the outside of the Sky Pavilion.
I followed the path that stretched forward, and I walked all the way forward. I don't know why, the interior of this pavilion seems extraordinarily quiet, as if only my footsteps echo in the pavilion.
After walking a short distance, I came to a fork in the road, and in front of me were eight roads that did not make any difference. If it weren't for Dongfang Haoqiong's reminder, I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to guess that the last path was to the Purple Cloud Priest.
Without making too many stops, I followed the eighth passage deeper into the Heavenly Pavilion. There were also many candles lit in this passage, and in the dim candlelight, it seemed a little illusory.
In the candlelight, I noticed that the structure of the passage was quite different from the outside. It's a strange passageway, and the floor is paved with stone slabs that for some reason look older.
On both sides of the passage is a corridor-style building, with many notches carved out in the stone walls on both sides, and the candles are burned on the bronze lamps embedded in the recesses.
I counted all the way, and when I finally came to the end, I knew the number of bronze ancient lamps in this passage, exactly one hundred and eight!
At the end of the passage was a door, which, along with the wall, sealed the passage seamlessly, with no sign of being pushed open, except for seven stars of unknown use on the door.
"The Big Dipper?"
I was a little surprised by what I saw along the way, this thing has something to do with Zhou Yi's technique! Zhou Yibu calculates this kind of thing, it is true and true, and it is false when it is false.
The old man said: Fortune-telling and celestial measuring machines are not true or false, the key lies in personal belief or not.
"If this is related to Zhou Yibu, then these seven star points represent the Big Dipper......"
Moving forward and walking to the front of the door, I slowly reached for a star.
"Tick,"
As my finger pressed on the star, a clear sound came from the star, and the star slowly sank. At the same time, a large slot of light connected to seven star points appeared on the entire door.
I hesitated, and my finger landed on the sunken star, and I pushed it slowly along the faint line, and the starpoint moved slowly under my finger.
"That's how it should be!"
Seeing this, I smiled slightly, this should be for me to piece together the layout of the Big Dipper.
"Tianshu Tianxuan starlight gathers, Tianji Tianquan and Tianquan open up; ”
The poems that the old man had taught me in my mouth were whispered, and my fingertips moved rapidly, dominating the position of the seven star points. When the seven stars reached where they were going, the door slowly sank to the ground with a thud.
Looking at a passage behind the door, I continued on my way and eventually came to a completely different place than before.
It is a house connected by stone passages, and the building materials have been changed from stone to bamboo, which looks like a medical hall.
The utensils in the bamboo house are all made of bamboo, and under the bamboo structure, there are some herbs hanging here and there that I can't name.
In the bamboo hut hangs a large bamboo curtain, which divides the bamboo house into almost two parts. And from the other side of the bamboo house, I still heard the sound of pounding medicine.
"Priest Purple Cloud is here?"
I stood on one side of the bamboo curtain and asked. Then there was an exclamation and the crash of an object falling to the ground. After a rush of footsteps, a man opened the curtain and came over.
"I'm the Purple Cloud Priest, who are you?"
Lifting the bamboo curtain, a beautiful girl with strange hair tied up and wearing a strange purple dress with an exotic style came over, and she asked stiffly.
As I looked at her, she looked at me, but her brow furrowed slightly as her gaze swept over me.
Feeling the coldness in those words, my heart sank, this girl is not very old but so cold, and it also gives people a feeling that no one is close, I'm afraid it's not easy to get along.
With a fist salute to her, I said in a deep voice: "The idle swordsman, Li Longchen, is here to ask the girl for advice!"
I noticed that when I said that I was a swordsman, a trace of complexity flashed on Ziyun's face, but I didn't know what this meant, so I didn't pay attention, so she was surprised!
And when I said that I had a question to ask her, she stared at me with beautiful eyes rather unkindly, and said without hesitation: "No comment!"
Seeing that this woman replied without hesitation, my mind changed and then said: "Priest Ziyun, it was Brother Liang Qianxun who instructed me to ask for advice and the girl!"
"Oh?"
There was a strange light in Ziyunmei's eyes, and her body leaned towards me, with a slight look of disbelief on her pretty face.
After she leaned over, a slight scent of incense wafted in, a faint vanilla scent.
I don't know why, when I smell this fragrance, I subconsciously compare it with the smell of Qingling, both should have their own merits, and Aiwu and Wuxia, my heart is more inclined to Qingling's fragrance.
"Do you know Liang Qianxun?"
"That's right!"
I nodded, took Liang Qianhiro's token from my arms, and showed it to her. But she only glanced at it and said, "The token is real, but who knows where you got it from!"
Ziyun's words made my heart move slightly, but the next moment I understood what she meant, she was embarrassing me!
She was still surprised when she knew about Liang Qianxun, which was enough to show that Liang Qianxun's status in Tianfu was not low, especially when I showed the token, she even spoke at a casual glance!
She knew very well that with Liang Qianxun's power, or the force behind Liang Qianxun, absolutely no one would dare to forge such a token, not to mention anywhere else, at least in Tianfu.
I can get such a token to naturally rely on something, but she asked me to come up with evidence at this time to prove that it was handed over to me by Liang Qianxun, isn't this deliberately embarrassing?
Add to that the frowning and coldness she had shown before, and I was even more sure of that!
Unless Liang Qian was found and asked to tell her about it in person, was there any other way? But it was obviously impossible to do it.
This Purple Cloud Priest knew this question well, but she was still asking me, what was it that didn't mean to make things difficult?
Looking at Ziyun's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, but seemed to be mixed with coldness, I said, "I wonder what Priest Ziyun thinks Li should do?"
"Haha......"
When I asked like this, Ziyun immediately hid his laughter, and his laughter was particularly harsh, "It's very simple to make me believe that you, eat this!"
I don't know why, Ziyun's laughter made me feel a little chill in my heart!
I took a black pill handed over by Ziyun and asked, "What is this?"
"There is no antidote to poison, and the soul is broken. ”
When he said this pill, a touch of coldness flashed in Ziyun's eyes, and at the same time, a cold smile appeared on his face,
"How, do you dare?"
"This ......"
I was shocked, the old man told me about this poison back then, and he also had a frightened look on his face when he talked about this poison, this poison was quite terrifying!
Holding this small pill in the palm of my hand, I only felt that this little pill seemed to weigh a thousand pounds at this moment, and my hands seemed to be hanging down.
"Don't you dare?"
Ziyun's beautiful eyes looked at me, sneered, and mocked from time to time.
Hearing this, I really don't know what she means, knowing that I have Liang Qianxun's token, but forcing me to take poison, it's really weird.
Confused by Ziyun's behavior, and then a bold idea came to my mind,
Could it be that this poison is fake?
......
To be continued......
