Chapter Ninety-Seven: To practice divine skills, first come from the palace
If you want to practice divine skills, you must first go to the palace! Seeing these eight words written in blood on the sword spectrum, Feng Jianping's whole person was completely petrified, he had just experienced the test of nine deaths and a lifetime, but he didn't expect to be blocked by these short eight words, he was unwilling, unwilling......
Shi Wanzhong saw his hesitant expression, and said: "This "Wushuang Sword Spectrum" has been partially mutilated, and my master Xuanye Zhenren cultivated according to the method of the ancestor back then, so that he went directly into the fire, his whole body was convulsed and twisted, and the pain was unbearable, and in desperation, he committed suicide by swinging his sword in order to be freed, and those eight words were written by him with his own blood before he died, and it can be regarded as his explanation to the disciples of later generations."
Feng Jianping still subconsciously touched his underneath, shook his head vigorously, and said in a trance: "No, no, no...... I don't want to be from the palace, I'm still young, and I want to marry my little sister as a wife, I can't ...... from the palace."
Shi Wanzhong shouted coldly: "If you want to defeat Lin Yu and Ximen Piaoxue, and if you want to become the number one swordsman in the world, this is the price you have to pay." You must know that if you want to become a high-ranking person, you have to pay a price that ordinary people can't imagine. ”
Feng Jianping still shook his head and said, "No, no, I don't want to be in the palace, I still want to marry a wife and have children!"
Seeing him like this again, Shi Wan sighed and said, "You go back and think about it first, is it important to become the number one swordsman in the world, or is it important to live like an ordinary person to marry a wife and have children?" ”
The wind still howled in the field, whimpering like the old man who had lost his son, and crying blood and tears like thousands of dead spirits.
Although he found the person he had been thinking about for a long time, Lin Yu's brows still condensed a thick cloud of sorrow, just like the wind in this wilderness, giving people an eerie and depressing feeling.
Li Ziyan, who was traveling with her, saw that Lin Yu was in a little unhappy, so she poked her head out and asked curiously, "What's the matter, are you in a bad mood, are you worried about Brother Zhou?"
Lin Yu nodded lightly and said, "Well, Zhou Xing and I have a deep relationship, and he was seriously injured just now for me, and I am worried that he may be in any danger." ”
Li Ziyan comforted: "Brother Lin, don't worry, Brother Zhou will be fine, Huashan has many dangerous peaks and mountains, and there is only one road to go up the mountain, and the people from Dongchang can't go to the back mountain." ”
Lin Yu wanted to say something more, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed it back, although Li Ziyan is the daughter of the head of Huashan, she is still young, and she is as ignorant of the world as Qing'er, and some things are still not known to him.
Thinking of Qing'er, Lin Yu's brows furrowed tightly, a trace of uneasiness flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly asked, "Miss Li, let me ask you a question, you have to answer me truthfully." ”
Although Li Ziyan has been rude and willful since she was a child, judging from Lin Yu's expression, it should be extraordinary at this time, and she hurriedly nodded and responded: "Brother Lin, what is the matter, if I knew, I would definitely tell you." ”
Lin Yu paused for a moment and said, "When did Qing'er arrive in Huashan?"
As soon as Li Ziyan heard Qing'er's name, she couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in her heart, and after a while, she shook her head and said, "I don't know." ”
"Do you really not know?" Lin Yu asked tentatively when he heard this, a little skeptical.
Li Ziyan still shook her head and said, "Well, I just got together with Senior Brother before I knew that Miss Qing'er was already on Huashan." ”
Lin Yu nodded symbolically and continued to ask, "Then does your father know about this?"
Li Ziyan shook her head again and said, "I don't know, but judging by the expression on the face of the senior brother when he told my father just now, he shouldn't have known that Miss Qing'er is already on Huashan." ”
A trace of doubt flashed in Lin Yu's eyes, and he said secretly: On the night of July 7, who will be the mysterious person next to the Yingyue Ancient Well, and what is the relationship between him and the Huashan Sword Sect, if it is not Li Jiulian, who will it be, could it be him?
"Brother Lin, what's wrong?" Li Ziyan couldn't help but ask curiously when she saw the gloomy cloud on Lin Yu's brow becoming solemn again.
Lin Yu came back to his senses at this time, shook his head gently, and said, "I'm fine, I'm just thinking about some problems, I can't figure it out." ”
Li Ziyan blurted out and said, "What's the problem?"
Lin Yu smiled lightly, but as soon as the words reached his mouth, he suddenly caught a glimpse of something in the grass in front of him, and his expression was stunned, and he cautiously stepped forward and took two steps, picking up the grass with his scabbard, only to see that a one-foot-long poisonous snake had been cut into two pieces from seven inches, and it seemed that it should have been cut off not long ago.
Seeing this, a trace of anger flashed on Li Ziyan's expression, and said: "When I came to pick up Miss Qing'er with Senior Brother just now, it was this hateful poisonous snake that bit me, but fortunately, Senior Brother was alert at that time, and he cut it into two pieces with one sword. ”
When she said this, Li Ziyan seemed to be very angry, and wanted to draw her sword and cut the poisonous snake into seven or eight more sections, as if only in this way could she relieve her anger.
Lin Yu hurriedly stopped her, and said softly: "Although the poisonous snake is dead, there is still residual poison on its body, Miss Li's daughter's body, it is better not to get into danger." ”
After speaking, he no longer paid attention to Li Ziyan, but was alone around the poisonous snake, pulling the dense grass with his sword scabbard, as if he was looking for something.
Seeing this, Li Ziyan was extremely puzzled and asked, "Brother Lin, what are you looking for?"
Lin Yu's expression changed slightly, and he said, "Miss Li, apart from you and Feng Jianping at that time, were there other people nearby?"
Li Ziyan had a blank expression on her face, obviously she didn't understand that she wanted to ask in the rain, but she still shook her head and said, "No, just me and the senior brother, there are very few people coming to this back mountain, not to mention that today is the five-year Huashan Sword Debate, and no one will come here." ”
Lin Yu frowned slightly when he heard this, and said secretly: Judging from Li Ziyan's footprints and the trajectory of the poisonous snake crawling at that time, it should not have bitten her, there was a piece of grass that was circled just now, that is to say, this poisonous snake was suddenly frightened, so he turned around and bit Li Ziyan, and there were traces of being hit by a hidden weapon in the grass just now, but Feng Jianping wanted to do this, what did he want to do, is there any unknown secret in it?
Li Ziyan interjected again at this time and said, "It's this damn poisonous snake that caused me to wait here for more than half an hour." ”
When Lin Yu heard this, he was suddenly startled, and hurriedly asked, "When you went to pick up Qing'er, didn't you go with your senior brother Feng Jianping?"
Li Ziyan responded: "Originally, they went together, but they were all harmed by this damn poisonous snake, so I waited for them here." ”
Lin Yu seemed to understand something, and said secretly: It seems that Feng Jianping deliberately broke Li Ziyan away, so it was convenient for him to act, and Qing'er's poison should have been given at that time. If Li Jiulian didn't know anything about this matter, then it could only mean one thing, Feng Jianping and the mysterious man in black must be inextricably linked, but he did this, was it just to deal with me?
Li Ziyan saw that Lin Yu fell into deep thought again, and then asked puzzledly: "What's the matter, Brother Lin, is there any problem?"
Lin Yu hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, I'm just worried about Brother Zhou's safety, let's go and have a look!"
On the banks of the stream, the stream is still flowing happily, sometimes you can see the fish and shrimp in the shallows playing, the breeze blows, the grass and trees dance with it, the shadows of the trees sway, and from time to time you can see a few fallen leaves dancing in the embrace of the wind.
All this seems so quiet, so natural, in stark contrast to the purgatory on earth in the front mountain, it turns out that heaven and hell can be so close, close to just a mountain apart.
However, at this time, Lin Yu was not in the mood to appreciate the beauty of nature. Because he smelled the blood in the wind, the more beautiful the place, the more terrible it was, this is what the master said to him before he went down the mountain, because of the beauty, people tend to indulge in it, they will relax their vigilance, and ignore the potential danger.
When he came to the boulder where he was lying on his side just now, the faint blood stains were still there, and then he looked in the direction where Zhou Xing was, and the people were no longer there, even Ximen Piaoxue and Feng Jianping were gone.
Li Ziyan saw the corpses lying on the ground, and shouted urgently: "After a vicious fight here, these corpses seem to be the eagle claws of Dongchang, could it be that Brother Zhou was captured by the people of Dongchang? And how did these people come to the back mountain?"
Lin Yu shook his head lightly and said, "It shouldn't be from Dongchang, these people have been killed before I left." ”
As for these people being able to come to the back mountain, Lin Yu already had the answer in his heart, but when the words came to his mouth, he swallowed them back.
The wind blows through the fields, and the grass sways with it. Lin Yu's expression suddenly sank, and he hurriedly stepped forward and leaned down, pressing the soil that had been trampled by a footprint with his fingers. muttered to himself: "The location where Feng Jianping is just now, it should be here, but who are these extra footprints, looking at the situation of the soil, it should have been stepped on for a long time, and the footprints are extremely shallow, if you don't look closely, you can't detect it at all, so it can be seen that this person's light skills are extremely powerful, I'm afraid it's not under me."
Thinking of this, Lin Yu suddenly remembered a person, the mysterious person who kidnapped Qing'er next to the Yingyue Ancient Well, could it be that they are the same person, but who is he? In addition to Li Jiulian and Mrs. Gongsun on Huashan, who else can have such haode light skills, could it be that that person retired to the rivers and lakes and came out of the mountain again. If it were him, things would have gotten even trickier. Also, where did he take Feng Jianping and Weishenme to take him away? All kinds of questions were like dark clouds condensed before the rainstorm in June, and a piece of black pressure climbed into Lin Yu's heart.
