Chapter 232: Blood Omen

、、、、、、、

Qingyun Mountain, Xiaozhu Peak.

The mountain peaks blew through the verdant bamboo forest, bringing up bursts of bamboo waves, echoing in the hollow valley forest.

Wen Min looked up at the sky, only to see that the sky was cloudless, blue, it seemed to have a transparent feeling, she took a deep breath, and her mood was better, but her pace did not slow down, she passed through the bamboo forest path, and soon she saw the small bamboo house where Master Shuiyue was meditating.

She walked to the door, knocked lightly on the door, and said, "Master, I'm back." ”

Master Shuiyue's voice came out, and said, "Is it Min'er, come in!"

Wen Min pushed open the door and walked in, the bamboo house was not big, and after entering the door, she saw Master Shuiyue sitting cross-legged on the couch, closing his eyes and recuperating. She stepped aside and said, "Master." “

Master Shuiyue slowly opened his eyes, glanced at her, saw that she was the only one, and said, "Why, no one was found?"

Wen Min nodded and said, "Yes, I have been to Senior Sister Lu's residence twice today, but she is not there, I have smelled it to the other sisters, but no one has seen her." Didn't she go down the mountain for something?"

Master Shuiyue was expressionless, and said: "Xueqi has always known the severity, if you go down the mountain, you will definitely inform me, you can't find her, most likely..."

Wen Min nodded, answered, and then saluted Master Shuiyue, and then walked out, gently closing the door of the bamboo house before leaving.

After Wen Min's footsteps outside the house gradually disappeared, a thoughtful look slowly appeared on Master Shuiyue's usually calm face, and after a long time, she sighed lowly.

The light shone in through the window of the bamboo house, illuminating this exquisite and simple bamboo house, Master Shuiyue silently got off the bamboo couch, walked to the door, opened the door and walked out, leaving a silence in this small space.

The moon platform is a very secluded place on the small bamboo peak, every night when the moon is clear and the moon is in the sky, the scenery here is very moving, the legend is that the moon is full on the night, the moon is like whom, after the refraction of the white stone of this moon viewing platform, it is enough to reflect the whole mountain range of the small bamboo peak, it is already a wonder in the world, and it is also one of the famous scenery on Qingyun Mountain.

In the past ten years, Lu Xueqi has often danced to the moon in the dead of night, Master Shuiyue is the teacher who raised Lu Xueqi since she was a child, like a teacher and a mother, no one understands Lu Xueqi's mind better than her. When she heard that Wen Minchao couldn't see Lu Xueqi, after thinking about it for a while, she expected that Lu Xueqi would most likely come to this secluded place.

Along the way, the bamboo forest yoga is luxuriant, and at the same time, it is getting farther and farther away from the lively palaces and pavilions in the front mountain, although Master Shuiyue's own room is also in a secluded place, but walking on this path, listening to the bamboo waves on both sides of the road, I still can't help but feel empty in my heart.

I don't know if Xue Qi also likes this place because of this feeling?

Master Shuiyue thought quietly in his heart and walked towards the Wang Yue platform. Sure enough, before she stepped on the moon platform, she saw the familiar white-clothed figure standing quietly on the boulder on the edge of the lonely cliff in the sky, the mountain wind in the endless abyss was whistling and blowing, and Lu Xueqi's white clothes were also flying with the wind.

Tianya was still in her hand, quietly exuding a light blue glow.

Master Shuiyue looked at her back, and acquiesced for a long time, there seemed to be some kind of complex emotion in her eyes, and her eyes flickered, and after a while, she coughed lightly.

Lu Xueqi immediately noticed the abnormality behind him, and was slightly surprised, it was daytime at this time, and there had never been a sister from Xiaozhufeng who came to this remote place, why did someone come here today, and when the person came close behind him, he didn't notice it at all.

She turned around quickly, but what caught her eye was the figure of her mentor, Master Shuiyue, Lu Xueqi was stunned for a moment, and quickly floated down from the boulder, came to Master Shuiyue, bowed her head and saluted: "Master, why are you here?"

Master Shuiyue had a little pity in his eyes, pulled Lu Xueqi's shirt with his hand, and said softly: "The wind blowing here is quite cold, although you are already deep, but it is not appropriate to blow more, it is not good after all." ”

Lu Xueqi lowered her head and said, "The disciple knows, thank you Master for your concern." ”

Master Shuiyue glanced at her, softened his breath, and said, "Do you have some resentment in your heart for being a teacher?"

Lu Xueqi was taken aback and said, "Master, why do you say that?"

Master Shuiyue said lightly: "I told you this secret, and asked you to go down the mountain, who knew that the will of heaven made people, and there were several twists and turns, but you had to kill the Great Bamboo Fengtian Uncle who was restrained by the Zhuxian Ancient Sword." And it was in front of that person. ”

Lu Xueqi's expression darkened, but she slowly shook her head and said, "Master, don't say it, the disciple has already thought clearly in his heart." This matter is the will of heaven, Master, you yourself can't think of it, not to mention that at the last moment of the day, although Uncle Tian and his old man couldn't speak, I clearly felt his intention in my heart, that sword, Uncle Tian also wanted me to shoot. ”

Her voice paused, and her expression suddenly showed a sense of depression, as if she was self-deprecating, as if she was smiling bitterly, and said faintly: "As for the relationship with that person...... The disciple is not hopeful, the rules and regulations of the door, the morality is like a mountain, I understand it very well. Uncle Tian of Dazhufeng is the teacher who raised him since he was a child, he has always regarded him as a father, but now he is dead in my heart, and it is unbearable to replace me with him.

Speaking of this, she silently raised her head, looked at Master Shuiyue, smiled sadly, and said, "Master, you don't have to worry about the disciple, me." I've really seen it all!"

Master Shuiyue felt a pain in her heart, with her experience, what Lu Xueqi was thinking at this moment, how could she not see it, this matter was too unexpected, and there was no room for change, although she was resolutely opposed to this disciple's feelings in the past, but at this moment, she finally couldn't bear it.

It's just that I can't bear it anymore, but in the end it still won't help, Master Shuiyue sighed softly, shook his head, and said softly: "Xueqi, don't be too sad, don't hurt your body." ”

Lu Xueqi smiled and said in a low voice, "Master, you came to this remote place to look for me, but is there anything important?"

Master Shuiyue nodded and said, "Yes, there is indeed one thing here, although it is not big, it seems to be very strange, and I want to think about it, it is still only you who is more suitable." ”

Lu Xueqi said: "What's the matter?"

Master Shuiyue glanced at her and said, "Actually, it's still that secret. By the way, you said that after the accident happened that day, did you personally send the body of Ghost Li and Tian Buyi to Dazhu Peak?"

Lu Xueqi's face changed slightly when she heard the word ghost, but then she nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, he was ... The man was seriously wounded. Although there was no fear of his life, it was too difficult to take Uncle Tian's body back to the mountain alone, and the matter should not be delayed for a long time, so the disciple gave them a ride. However, I also sent my affairs to the Great Bamboo Peak, and as soon as they landed, I left. ”

Master Shuiyue nodded and said, "Yes, the weirdness is here." ”

Lu Xueqi was a little surprised and said, "What's the matter, Master?"

Master Shuiyue said lightly: "As you said, as early as two days ago, Tian Buyi's body had returned to the Great Bamboo Peak, but until today, there has not been a trace of mourning news on the Great Bamboo Peak. ”

Lu Xueqi was taken aback, and couldn't help frowning.

Master Shuiyue stepped aside with his hand and looked out from afar, only to see the clouds and mist in the distance, and the Great Bamboo Peak loomed in that direction

She looked at it for a long time and said: "Tian Buyi is the first of the Dazhu Peak faction, and his status is not trivial, as long as the news comes out, even the real person in charge of the sect will have to go over to pay respects, but the Dazhu Peak is kept secret, isn't it a very strange thing?"

She paused, turned her head to look at Lu Xueqi, and said, "In addition, I also quietly sent someone to find an excuse to go to Longshou Peak in the morning, and found that Tian Ling'er was still on Longshou Peak, and I didn't know anything about the news of my father's death. ”

Lu Xueqi was silent for a long time, and then said, "The disciple understands." ”

Master Shuiyue nodded and said, "You Bingxue is smart, I don't need to say anything." In fact, I don't suspect anything, Su Ru is my junior sister, the two of us are like sisters, not for others, I am actually more worried that she has a deep relationship between husband and wife, and I can't think of doing stupid things for a while, but Dazhu Peak will not mourn for a day, and I, as the head of Dazhu Peak, it is not convenient for me to visit in the past, and there are many hidden twists and turns in this matter, and it is really inconvenient for others, so I have to let you go over again. ”

Lu Xueqi nodded and said, "The disciple knows, since this is the case, if there is nothing else to lose, the disciple will pass." ”

Master Shuiyue nodded slightly, and said, "It's okay, you should be careful all the way, if anything happens, come back early and let me know." ”

Lu Xueqi responded, saluted Master Shuiyue, turned around, and the Tianya Divine Sword Divine Light lit up at the starting point, and the person followed the sword, only to hear a sharp roar that broke through the sky, and the person had turned into a blue light and rushed to the sky.

Master Shuiyue looked at Lu Xueqi's slightly hurried figure, which was not like her calm style in the past, and knew that the stubborn and infatuated apprentice was always strong on the surface and put it down in his mouth, but in his heart he couldn't let go.

She was silent for a long time, and the thickest only sighed lowly, shook her head, turned around and walked off the moon platform, and went straight away.

Thousands of miles away, Huqi Mountain.

In the cold stone room, the frost and cold air were still rising, and the peaceful woman in green was lying quietly on the cold ice stone platform as usual.

Lan Ji, who was covered with a light veil, stood alone in the cold stone room, staring at Baguio for a long time, and sighed softly, with a lot of helplessness.

In Youji's heart, there has indeed been too much helplessness recently, which makes her puzzled, makes her sad, and makes her gradually confused.

First of all, the ghost king seems to have completely changed a person, the resolute and resolute ghost king in the past, although he is still eloquent and strategic, but the intention of killing in his daily actions is getting heavier and heavier, this is only a few days' work, because of a few small things that disobey his will, the ghost king has killed several people in a row, including even a high-status ghost king sect senior.

And these little things, two years ago, the ghost king was afraid that he would laugh it off. You Ji clearly felt that the people in the Ghost King Sect were already panicked, and everyone was afraid, and no one knew which day they would suddenly die inexplicably because of some inconspicuous trivial matter.

What made Youji even more sad was that she accidentally bumped into the ghost king and the ghost Li that day, although it was only a few times, but Youji was not an ordinary sect, she was one of the four holy envoys of the Ghost King Sect, and she opened it clearly, I don't know when the two men started, there was already a deep rift, she saw it, the ghost king's few strokes, may not be without murderous intent.

Her eyes darkened, and she looked at Baguio, who was still sleeping quietly. It was for this respectable and beautiful woman that the two men came together, but why did they reach this point after ten years?

Yu Ji really can't imagine what the result would be if one day, those two men kill each other, and now it seems that this kind of thing may not happen.

"Man, huh, man!"

Yu Ji said a sentence hatefully in her heart, distraught, and when she turned her gaze to Baguio, she turned into Tengxin. This child, whom she has always regarded as her daughter, every time she sees Baguio, she can't help but feel sad.

While she was silently meditating here alone, the heavy stone door of the icy stone room suddenly emitted a low mahogany sound, and someone opened it from outside.

Yuhime turned her head to look, and after a while, she saw the figure of the ghost king appear at the door, and slowly walked in, and couldn't help but be stunned.

The ghost king then also saw Youhime, nodded to her, and said lightly, "You are also here." ”

Yu Ji suddenly sneered, staring at the Ghost King, but did not speak.

The Ghost King frowned, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and now he seemed to be particularly prone to anger, which was very different from his previous temperament. It's just that Youji is not an ordinary person after all, and the relationship with his father and daughter is not comparable to others, and the ghost king has always treated Youji differently. At the moment, I had to say, "What's wrong?"

Yuhime snorted and sneered, "Do you remember that there is a daughter lying here?"

The ghost king frowned and said, "What are you talking about, how I don't remember, I only have such a child." ”

Yu Ji said solemnly: "Okay, you should tell me, how long has it been since you came here to see Baguio?"

The ghost king was stunned, but he couldn't speak for a while, and a trace of apology seemed to flash in his eyes, and he softened his breath and said, "It's me who is wrong, the teaching affairs have been difficult recently, and I am not in a good mood, so I will come less." ”

Yu Ji said coldly: "I really don't understand, it's not just you, but also that ghost, what's wrong? The two of you seem to have changed a lot!"

The ghost king didn't seem to care about Youji's tone, but after he heard the word ghost power, the ground suddenly sank, and he snorted, and said, "The vertical son doesn't know the general situation, don't face him in front of me!"

Youji looked at the face of the ghost king, only to see a faint anger on his face, and he was about to say something, but suddenly a sense of exhaustion rolled up in his heart, and he felt disheartened for a while, shook his head, and said: "That's it, that's it, whatever you want, anyway, you do it yourself, I really can't take care of it, and I don't bother to take care of it." ”

As she spoke, she turned and walked towards the door, and the ghost king looked at her back, frowning, and wanted to say something to her, but she didn't say anything after all.

Seeing that Yuhime's hand was about to reach out to the heavy stone door, suddenly, her hand suddenly stopped in mid-air, and almost at the same time, the ghost king standing behind her also felt something, and the sharp light in his eyes flashed suddenly.

An invisible, yet overwhelming, force swept through the depths of the earth beneath their feet like a rolling and surging tide. The Ghost King and the Ghost Queen are both profound people, and they are both discolored by this strange power for a while.

It's just that Youji was shocked, and the ghost king was indeed surprised and slightly happy, and the light in his eyes kept flashing.

This strange tide came wave after wave, straight like the raging sea that never stops, slowly, Yuhime clearly felt that the ground under his feet was trembling slightly, and this tremor was slowly intensifying.

Her face turned slightly pale, this sudden strange force, its power is unimaginable, shocking, it is simply beyond human resistance, she looked back in horror, only to see the ghost king's strange expression, his eyes were bright, but he didn't know what he was trying to write, but on his face, but there was not much fear.

At this moment, suddenly, in this indestructible cold stone chamber that seemed to be surrounded by countless heavy mountain rock walls, there were several continuous crisp sounds, as if something had exploded.

This time, the ghost king's face has changed as much as Youji.

Shocked, they hurriedly looked, but saw that on the originally solid stone wall, there were actually a few short cracks, and from the fracture, a few small stones kept falling, and at the same time, the ground under their feet seemed to be shaking more and more.

Fortunately, however, this strange force seemed to have found an outlet when it tore through the solid rock of the mountain wall, and soon after the mountain wall cracked, the two of them felt this strange mysterious power deep in the earth under their feet, which quickly weakened, and soon disappeared without a trace.

Yuhime stood silently for a long time, her brow furrowed, and if the shocking cracks were still on the stone wall from time to time, she almost thought that it was just her own illusion. It's just that the cracks are like knives, but they are really carved into the extremely hard stone wall.

Yuhime turned his head to look at the Ghost King, but somehow, the Ghost King just glanced at her, then turned back and looked at Baguio.

"Do you know what's going on?"

A shadow suddenly passed through Yuhime's heart, and she had a bad premonition.

The ghost king shook his head slowly, and said lightly: "I don't know, I'll send someone to survey the terrain to see if it's an earthquake." ”

Yu Ji pondered for a moment and said, "This shouldn't be an earthquake, the surging force just now, like a huge sea tide, and there is clearly a cold and murderous aura in it, it is definitely not a natural disaster." ”

The ghost king was silent, and only after a moment did he say, "I will investigate this matter in detail, and you can leave it alone." ”

Yu Ji stared at his back for a long time, the light veil on her face moved slightly without wind, and after a while, she didn't speak again, turned around, opened the heavy stone door, and walked out.

The stone door slowly closed with a heavy roar, and there was silence in the icy stone chamber again. Looking at the serene and slightly smiling and peaceful beautiful face, the ghost king's deep and sharp eyes finally softened.

He sat down silently on the side of the cold stone bed, just looking at Baguio with indescribable thoughts and pain.

It seems that it is only at this time, when he is alone in front of his daughter, that he shows some weakness.

Only, who knows?

Or, is it the ghost king himself, will he understand?

Nobody knows.

And outside this cold stone room, Yuhime only left here and walked a few steps, then stopped, frowned, and looked around.

I don't know that just now because she was in the extremely thick and tight ice stone room, although she felt that strange mysterious power, but the damage caused around her was not great, of course, the power that could tear a few cracks in the extremely hard stone wall, this force was not trivial.

However, outside the cold stone room, what she saw was indeed a much more serious phenomenon, in the Ghost King Sect, in all directions, there was a wolf everywhere, falling rock fragments could be seen everywhere, and there was no sound of someone shouting in a hurry and someone moaning in pain in the distance.

Obviously, that mysterious force had a more serious impact on Huqi Mountain than expected.

And in this hectic time, Yuhime also discovered another anomaly, that is, in these well-ventilated corridors, I don't know when it started, there was a faint smell of blood in the air.

This bloody breath came from nowhere, but it seemed to be everywhere, and wherever she went, she could feel it. Although this strange aura is not strong, Yuhime still feels very uncomfortable, but the worries now are too many for her, and she doesn't have the heart to worry about this anymore.

For her, it was like a breath of air in her chest right now, and no matter what, she just thought about the feeling of rushing out of this mountainside and going outside to take a breath. That's what she thought, and that's what she did.

Yu Ji's figure soon disappeared into the mountainside road, but the faint bloody aura seemed to still be quietly permeating here......
