Chapter 077: The clouds are deep and misty

When he first arrived in Yingzhou, he didn't even have time to see the whole picture, so Zhao Yu had to leave again.

He talked to Ji Xiaofu about his plans, but Ji Xiaofu was just silent, but he did not object. She has made a decision with her teacher, and she doesn't want to go home and make her parents sad, for the sake of her daughter, only going to Yang Xiao is the best situation. It's just that when she thought that she had really become the demon witch in her master's mouth in the future, her heart was like a knife.

What Zhao Yu didn't expect was that Zhang Wuji must also leave. Now Yingshang County Hecheng is full of Ming people, he remembers Master Tai's teachings, and naturally refuses to stay here.

Zhao Yuqi said: "Your cold poison has not been cleared yet, stay here and Mr. Hu will take care of you, if you leave, you can only wait for death, are you not afraid?"

Zhang Wuji said with a sad expression: "My cold and poisonous entanglement is deep, and Mr. Hu can't eradicate it, so he will wait for death if he stays here." Just take advantage of some time to visit the mountains and rivers, and die there when you go there. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel a strong sympathy in his heart. Because of his different temperaments, he always had some disputes with this young man, but when he saw Zhang Wuji's self-righteous and lonely appearance, he still felt sad, so he comforted: "There is no shortage of things in the world, and it is always good to have hope whenever you have it." If you don't want to stay here, come with me. Even if you are really dead, I will definitely send you back to Wudang Mountain and not let you be exposed to the wilderness. ”

Everyone sent Zhao Yu out of Yingshang County. Before leaving, he saw everyone standing in one place and looked happy, and he could see the crack that looked like a god, and suddenly his heart moved, and he said: "The so-called flying knife breaks through ten thousand armies, which is really exaggerated. But if I want to kill someone, even if he's heavily guarded, it's easy. ”

Everyone was wondering why he suddenly said this, and saw Zhao Yu suddenly have an extra flying knife in his hand, only to see his arm raised, the cold light suddenly flashed, and they couldn't even catch the trajectory of the flying knife!

Everyone was looking up for flying knives in the sky, and suddenly someone shouted, "Look at the city tower!"

They turned their heads suddenly, only to see the tail of a flying knife faintly exposed on the wooden plaque of the city tower more than ten feet away. Such a miraculous skill, everyone was so shocked that their mouths opened wide and forgot to speak. After a long time, there was a thunderous cheer, but the faces of some people became ugly, especially Luo Wensu, who tried to restrain Zhao Yu with words, and even shrank his head into the crowd, for fear of being seen by Zhao Yu.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am leaving. I'll be back in a few months!"

After that, Zhao Yu turned over into the carriage and drove away.

On the road again, Zhao Yu did not have hope in his ability to find his way, so he asked Ji Xiaofu to recognize the way. Although Ji Xiaofu has walked on the rivers and lakes for several years, he is not familiar with the Central Plains. After some discussion, it was decided to take the Sichuan Road to Kunlun Mountain. Although you can't avoid Emei Mountain, there is a canopy to cover it, pay attention to it, and it will be fine.

agreed to take this path, Zhao Yu also had an idea. He knew that Zhou Zhiruo's little girl was in the Emei faction right now, and he hadn't had a chance to ask if he had met people from the Emei faction several times, so he also wanted to stop by to have a look. failed to live up to Zhou Chuanfu's deathbed trust, and he was not without guilt in his heart.

There was nothing wrong all the way, even if there were several waves of thieves, they were all sent away by Zhao Yu. After traveling for nearly two months, I have arrived at the foot of Emei Mountain. Hearing and witnessing the extremely familiar scenery, Ji Xiaofu was extremely sad.

After nightfall, according to the path found by Ji Xiaofu, Zhao Yu sneaked up to Emei Mountain. It's not that he doesn't want to go to the meeting in the bright light, but because of Ji Xiaofu's matter, the exterminator is too offended, and he shows up openly, which is unpredictable. And letting others know that Zhou Zhiruo is involved with her infamous little demon lord will not do her much good.

He first sneaked into the valley under the golden light where the new disciples lived, and it was the evening class time, and many new disciples were under the leadership of the two senior disciples of the Jingzi generation, reviewing the basic martial arts of the Emei sect that they had learned in one day.

Zhao Yu's current light attainments, if he wants to hide his whereabouts, if he is not a master like Exterminator, he will not be discovered easily. He walked around the valley for a week, observing the details. There are more than 300 new disciples in the valley, both men and women, and it can be seen that they have laid a good foundation for martial arts.

Listening to Ji Xiaofu, the Emei faction collects more than 100 disciples every year, some of whom are discovered and collected by the disciples of the Emei faction who have traveled the rivers and lakes, some are recommended by colleagues in the rivers and lakes, and the most are the sons and daughters of people close to the left of Sichuan. In troubled times, whether they are rich or poor, they all want their children to learn a skill. The Emei faction is among the six major schools of martial arts, so it is naturally the best choice for these people.

Zhao Yu sees the problem more deeply than ordinary people in the rivers and lakes, and can feel that under this appearance, the Emei faction has an influence that cannot be underestimated in both the rivers and lakes and the world in Sichuan. In addition, the Sichuan land is surrounded by mountains, and the momentum of the Emei faction in the local area is only a few points more prosperous than that of the imperial court.

From the Emei faction to the various major sects of martial arts in the world, Zhao Yu realized that the connection between the rivers and lakes and the world has been inseparable, and each major sect has both an independent side of the world, and the other side is also actively entering the WTO. The prestige and power possessed by each sect cannot be summed up by a few sect masters. If the Ming Sect wants to achieve great things, these martial arts sects cannot be bypassed.

While thinking, Zhao Yu looked for Zhou Zhiruo's figure in the crowd. But after several searches, I didn't find the little girl.

Just when Zhao Yu was puzzled, he suddenly heard a senior disciple of the Jingzi generation say loudly: "Don't slack off because your basic martial arts are boring, take Senior Sister Zhou Zhiruo as an example." It was precisely because she practiced the basic martial arts of her own sect diligently and laid a good foundation that she was favored by her master and her old man in the sect and accepted as a disciple. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yu realized that Zhou Zhiruo was no longer here. Knowing that the little girl had been accepted as a disciple by the extermination master, Zhao Yu felt a little proud, but also a little worried, and became more and more afraid to expose Zhou Zhiruo's relationship with him. Just looking at the attitude of the exterminator towards Ji Xiaofu, you can see how much she hates Mingjiao.

Leaving the valley, Zhao Yu went up to the top of the golden light again. He didn't dare to take the mountaineering trail excavated by the Emei faction, only climbed between the rocks near the left side of the trail, the golden light top was steep and steep, Rao is Zhao Yu's light work is extraordinary, and every time there will be a layer of white hair and cold sweat because of the steep terrain.

The Sword Courtyard halfway up the Jinguangding Mountain is where the disciples who enter the room practice and live. According to Ji Xiaofu, the exterminator didn't like male disciples too much, so all the people she accepted as female disciples were female disciples. Where the women of the Sword Academy gathered, Zhao Yu just came to visit the deceased, not to steal jade and incense, but it was not good to break in recklessly, just waiting by the open space outside the Sword Academy, and he was not sure if he could see Zhou Zhiruo.

After more than half an hour, just when Zhao Yu was about to lose his patience and prepare to leave, he saw two figures walking down the mountain road in the distance, one of them was a middle-aged nun, and the other was Zhou Zhiruo, who had not been seen for several years.

Zhao Yu was hidden in the shade of the tree and could see it clearly. I haven't seen her for more than two years, but this little girl has grown taller, and her cheeks are plump instead of the thin she used to be, and she is obviously quite comfortable in the Emei faction. It's just that she often has a depressed color between her eyebrows, and she still looks cowardly and pitiful.

After walking for a while, the nun suddenly said to Zhou Zhiruo: "Senior Sister Zhou, you know Master's temper. She is strict with you because she has high expectations for you. Don't be sad, go back and sleep well, if you do a good job, Master and her old man will feel relieved and will not reprimand you again. ”

Zhou Zhiruo nodded, and said softly: "Senior Sister Jingxuan, I am not sad when Master blames me, but I am sad that I can't do what Master asks......"

The nun patted Zhou Zhiruo's shoulder and said softly: "After the master returned to the mountain, his temper was indeed a little different. I heard from you, Senior Sister Bei, that the master went down the mountain this time and encountered some embarrassing things, the junior sister Ji Xiaofu, who was originally her beloved, betrayed her faction, and now the famous little demon lord Zhao Wuxian competed with the master and was evenly matched. Master, she is the most powerful old man, Xu saw that the little demon lord was already full of martial arts at a young age, and she felt that there were no outstanding disciples under her sect, so she was doubly strict with you. You know these things in your own heart, and don't tell them about them!"

"That little demon lord is really as powerful as the rumors, it is said that he is only a teenager, how can he fight on an equal footing with the master?" Zhou Zhiruo nodded vigorously, and then asked suspiciously.

Jing Xuan thought for a while before saying, "I have seen that little demon lord in the same sect, Senior Sister Ding has never allowed everyone to mention him, and Senior Sister Pei has never fought with him. Only Senior Sister Jingxu has palpitations every time she speaks, and what she says has always been the most pertinent, that little demon lord should be extremely powerful. ”

While the two were talking, they had already walked to the gate of the Sword Academy, Zhou Zhiruo stopped and said to Jing Xuan: "Senior Sister Jing Xuan, I want to practice sword for a while, you go back first." ”

Jing Xuan said: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. With that, he walked into the Sword Courtyard.

Zhao Yu saw Zhou Zhiruo standing in place for a moment, and suddenly turned around and walked towards his hidden place, thinking that he had been discovered, and almost turned around to leave. When I saw the little girl's eyes scattered, I realized that she was just walking casually.

Zhou Zhiruo walked to the open space a few feet away from Zhao Yu, her little face was full of doubts, and she whispered to herself: "They are all surnamed Zhao, and they are of the same age, is it really him?"

After a while, she shook her head again and said, "Definitely not, although his martial arts are also powerful, they are not high enough to compete with the master." Moreover, he has a good heart, how can he be a treacherous little demon lord......"

Zhao Yu heard Zhou Zhiruo talking to herself, but she was worried about her identity, and felt a little strange friendship.

Zhou Zhiruo stood in place for a moment, then suddenly drew his saber and swung it. Zhao Yu saw that her sword moves were already quite disciplined, and he felt relieved. While Zhou Zhiruo was practicing swords, he floated down the mountain. Now that she already knows that Zhou Zhiruo is doing well in the Emei faction, and she has to be taught martial arts by the extermination master, as long as she avoids her and does not meet her, she should be able to live comfortably in the Emei faction, which is not a disappointment to Zhou Chuanfu's trust.

Zhou Zhiruo focused on practicing swords, and did not notice Zhao Yu's arrival and departure at all. After practicing for a while, she threw down her sword a little boringly, and connected a few more loose hands with her bare hands, but they were the routines that Zhao Yu taught her on the Hanshui boat more than two years ago. At this time, she used it again, and she was already extremely proficient, and said in a gloomy voice: "Master said that I only have ingenuity in these styles of feathers, but I have lost the true meaning of martial arts, and I am not allowed to waste time practicing anymore." But it was only when I practiced this loose hand that I felt that he was behind me......"

After a while, her little face became tangled, and she said abruptly, "If he is really that little demon lord, what can I do?" Master hates the people of the Demon Sect deeply, and I will definitely not be allowed to be involved with him again. But if he comes to me in the future, I will go with him. Master's kindness to me is still going to be disappointed......"

Ethereal mountains, clouds and mist, drizzling rain, cold and lonely night, after all, no one came to solve this dilemma of the girl's feelings.
