Chapter 67: The Elixir
After a while, the six surviving "Eagle Mountain Guards" and the Liu Commander were all tied up and thrown by Zhao Xinming's side. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Soon, the county lord of Anyang and Liu Er were also brought over. Liu Er looked frightened, hid behind the county lord, and secretly looked at this group of mountain bandits. The county lord of Anyang had a calm face and stared at Mr. Lu coldly.
Mr. Lu didn't care, and smiled faintly: "The county lord of Anyang is really bold, I admire it." ”
"Who the hell are you?" the county lord of Anyang asked again, as cold as ice.
"Why should the county lord be in a hurry, as soon as he goes to Sunset Peak, the old man will chat with the county lord again. Mr. Lu said again.
"You!" the county lord of Anyang was angry in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.
After a stalemate, the battlefield was cleaned up. Densely packed corpses littered both sides of the road, making it difficult to look at them directly. The big boss sighed, ordered someone to burn it, and then led everyone to walk slowly towards Sunset Peak.
At this time, it was already dark, and there was a firelight behind him, and the sound of "crackling" was non-stop, Zhao Xinming only felt a swishing cold wind coming, and couldn't help but shiver. I happened to see the county lord of Anyang walking aside, his body was trembling slightly, and he couldn't bear to ask, "County lord, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, but it's a burden to the prince. The county lord of Anyang looked at Zhao Xinming and said softly.
"The county lord doesn't need to blame himself, the ride was originally requested by myself. Zhao Xinming shook his head.
"Even so, it's still me who has caused Childe. The county lord of Anyang blushed slightly, and asked softly, "Where is the son from?"
"In the next is the Qinghe County of Qingzhou. Zhao Xinming said in a low voice.
As they spoke, the team came to the foot of the "Sunset Peak". A stone staircase avenue more than ten zhang wide leads straight to the mountain, but it is in disrepair, the steps are seriously damaged, and it is extremely difficult to walk. Despite this, you can still see the grandeur of the year. Zhao Xinming looked up, there are a number of stone platforms erected on both sides of the steps, the platform is carved with birds and beasts of different shapes, vivid, lifelike, at this time it is also seriously damaged, many stone platforms fall to the ground, and the statues on the stone platform are broken to the ground. The mountain next to the stone steps was scraped into a mess, but despite this, Zhao Xinming could still vaguely feel the three words "Sunset Sect"!
"Sunset Sect?" Zhao Xinming muttered, thought about it carefully, but had no impression.
"Hehe, I didn't expect that after so many years, there are still people who know about the Sunset Sect. Mr. Lu, who was not far ahead, heard the voice, suddenly stopped and sighed.
Zhao Xinming's heart moved, and he hurriedly took a few steps forward and said, "Please also ask Senior Lu to give advice." ”
"Wang Ziming, I really like you a little. Mr. Lu stared at Zhao Xinming for a while, his eyes flickering, and he didn't know what he was thinking. After a while, he said slowly, "Okay, I'll tell you about this Sunset Sect today." The world only knows that Ling Tianzong is the number one sect in the world, but they don't know that a thousand years ago, when the Sunset Sect was strong, the disciples in the sect exceeded 10,000, the internal strength was 3,000, and the outer gang was 800. It's ridiculous that 'Ling Tianzong' shamelessly claimed that his 'Sunset Sutra' was better than the 'Sunset Sutra', and the world really believed it, it was really ridiculous. ”
Mr. Lu sneered, and the "Ling Tianzong" he said was simply useless, and Zhao Xinming was even more dumbfounded when he heard it, and couldn't help but say: "Senior Lu, since the Sunset Sect is so powerful, why did it become like this?"
Mr. Lu glared at Zhao Xinming, was silent for a moment, and continued: "More than 1,000 years ago, the Great Zhou Dynasty suddenly rose, and the contemporary sect master of the Sunset Sect somehow offended Emperor Taizu, and Emperor Taizu sent millions of elite soldiers in a fit of rage, together with Ling Tianzong and others who took advantage of the fire to rob the sect, and attacked the Sunset Sect on a large scale. Coupled with some problems in the sect, the two sides fought for more than a month, and the Sunset Sect couldn't resist it, and was finally exterminated by Emperor Taizu. ”
Speaking of this, Mr. Lu sighed, shook his head, and slowly walked forward. Zhao Xinming was also embarrassed, such a powerful sect couldn't resist in front of the imperial court, and it was even easier said than said if he wanted to take revenge! Zhao Xinming thought for a while, his heart was depressed, and he suddenly fell silent, bowed his head and walked forward.
"Wang Gongzi, what's wrong with you?" asked the county lord of Anyang with a slightly red face.
"County Lord, I'm fine, I'm just feeling a little uncomfortable. Zhao Xinming breathed a sigh of relief and said lightly.
"Hmm. The county lord of Anyang nodded and continued, "Prince Wang, my father also mentioned the matter of the Sunset Sect. According to what his father said, the destruction of the Sunset Sect was mainly due to internal problems, otherwise it is really difficult to say whether the winner will be defeated or lost. After the annihilation, most of the masters of the Sunset Sect also fled, and not many really died, and Emperor Taizu did not delve into the matter. ”
As he spoke, the stone steps became narrower and steeper. Liu Er was careless, her feet slipped, and the whole person suddenly flipped backwards. Liu Er was shocked, grabbed his hands indiscriminately, and grabbed the county lord's arm. The county lord of Anyang was defenseless, unsteady on his feet, and also fell. Zhao Xinming's eyes were quick, his figure flashed, and he caught the two of them. The county lord of Anyang suddenly turned red and hurriedly ran out. Liu Er's cheeks were also red, she bowed slightly, and ran out.
Before they knew it, the group had reached the top of the mountain. When the man guarding the village saw the three masters, he hurriedly opened the door of the village. Walking into the cottage, all the old and young left behind greeted them, and they immediately cried. The big boss was upset when he heard this, reprimanded him, and retreated from everyone, so he arranged a room for the county lord of Anyang according to Mr. Lu's meaning. As for Zhao Xinming, Commander Liu and other prisoners, they were all thrown into the cell. Everything was arranged, and the big boss also breathed a sigh of relief, returned to his residence, and was about to rest, when he heard two knocks on the door.
"Who?" the big boss asked in a deep voice.
"Big brother, it's me, the second brother, the third brother. The voice of the second master came from outside the door.
"Come in. The big boss frowned and said loudly.
The wooden door "squeaked" and pushed, and the two masters looked left and right, rushed in, and hurriedly closed the wooden door.
"What are you two sneaking around?" the big boss said dissatisfied, looking at the two of them.
"Big brother, take a look at this. The third master said with a smile.
After speaking, the three masters hurriedly took out a porcelain bottle and handed it over, it was the one that Zhao Xinming had searched for! The big master stretched out his hand to take it, looked at the porcelain bottle with a puzzled face, opened the cap, and smelled a fragrance coming to his nose, looking down, there were three snow-white pills in the porcelain bottle, which were crystal clear and faintly shiny.
"Third child, where did this thing come from?" the big boss looked at the pill and hurriedly asked.
"Big brother, I found this pill on that Ling Tianzong disciple, I knew it was a good thing at a glance, so I secretly hid it. The three masters hurriedly replied.
"Big brother, are you well-informed, do you know what this thing is?" asked the second master.
The big boss shook his head and said softly, "It's a bit like the legendary 'elixir'." ”
"'Elixir'?" the two masters were overjoyed, staring at the porcelain vase with bright eyes.
"Well, don't think about it. The big boss reprimanded and continued, "'Elixir' is just a common name for some powerful pills by ordinary people, not a real 'elixir'. Legend has it that this kind of elixir is the living dead, flesh and bones, and it is omnipotent to improve cultivation, but I can't say what the effect of these pills is. ”
"Big brother, why don't we give it a try now?" the third master hurriedly proposed.
"What to try? Just three of them, if you get it wrong, it won't be a big loss. The second master scolded and asked again, "Big brother, what do you say?"
The big boss took two steps, looked at the porcelain vase in his hand, and finally made up his mind, and said, "Let's go, let's go and ask that kid now." After saying that, the big boss walked out with the two of them.
