Back on the south bank of the river, it was nearly late spring.

Murong Yixue followed Nangong Lian all the way to Hangcheng, and went directly to the Famous Sword Gate, it turned out that the place where Nangong Lian said she wanted to take him was here.

The two easily bypassed the guard disciples of the Famous Sword Sect, Nangong Lian grew up here since he was a child, so he naturally knew everything very well.

It's just why did he sneak into the Famous Sword Gate so quietly?

The Famous Sword Gate is full of flowers, Murong Yixue is no stranger to all this, the person he admires the most is the grandmaster who established the Famous Sword Gate, but unfortunately he died violently ten years ago, even if he is a swordsman who moves the world, he can't escape the stalk of the disease.

Murong Yixue sighed softly, but it was a pity that she couldn't see him for the last time.

At the end of the vast flower field, there is a steep cliff path with strange rocks, which is naturally difficult to defeat Murong Yixue, who is extremely light, only to see him fluttering like a fairy in the wind, flying across the ravine.

Not long after the two of them walked forward, they saw that the stream was clear and the flowers were prosperous, and Murong Yixue couldn't help asking, "The place you said is here?"

Nangong Lian nodded solemnly and said, "It's not far ahead." ”

Murong Yixue looked at it from afar, only to see the waterfall in the distance, and the petals flowed down the rapids, bringing a burst of fragrance.

Murong Yixue couldn't help but admire: "This scene is not inferior to any spring in Hangzhou, Brother Nangong, you have practiced swords here since you were a child, which really makes me envious." ”

Nangong smiled bitterly: "Brother Murong smiled, I really don't hide it, this place is the forbidden place of the Famous Sword Gate, if I hadn't brought my junior sister in private, I'm afraid I wouldn't have known such a magnificent scene until now." ”

Murong Yixue replied and asked, "The secret room you mentioned is under this waterfall, right?"

Nangong Lian nodded and said, "Brother Murong, please come with me." ”

His body was light, jumping into the pool, Murong Yixue frowned, his body was a little on the stone platform, and he turned in, only to see Nangong Lian floating on a boulder, and then his figure disappeared.

Murong Yixue said secretly, it turned out that this was the entrance to the secret room, he slowed down his breath, his body fell, and he jumped into the boulder lightly.

The surroundings instantly became dark, and he couldn't see his five fingers, Nangong smiled pitifully: "Brother Murong, the last time I came, I had already figured out how to enter the secret room. As he spoke, he took the flint from his bosom and lit the candle on the stone platform.

There was a bright candlelight in the stone cave in an instant, Nangong Lian led the way in front, Murong Yixue walked behind, not long ago, when passing by the candlestick, Nangong Lian smiled mysteriously and said: "This is the key to the stone gate." He turned the candle, and the whole cave trembled, and it turned out to be a mechanism.

Walking into the stone gate, a cold breath came, even Murong Yixue couldn't help but shudder, the two dry bones of Bai Sensen came into view, Murong Yixue frowned, and took a closer look.

Seeing only a few broken bones and ribs, Murong Yixue couldn't help but lose his voice: "This is caused by the golden silk palm, and the internal strength of the person who injured him is extremely deep. Nangong Lian nodded and said, "Brother Murong, look over there again." ”

Murong Yixue stared at it for a long time and said, "This person's swordsmanship is a little weird. Nangong Lian had only seen another dry bone that had been wounded to death by the sword, but she didn't see anything strange, so she couldn't help but ask, "Why did Brother Murong say this?"

Murong Yixue pointed to the gap in the bones and said, "Take a closer look, what is the difference between this wound." ”

Nangong Lian stared for a long time, frowned, and said, "Brother Murong, I still can't see it, but I always feel that this scar is a little strange." ”

Murong Yixue said in a deep voice: "This wound was raised from the bottom up by the sword blade, and it is a backhand sword. ”

Nangong said suddenly: "But... How could anyone use such a sword technique?"

Murong Yixue fell into a deep silence, and her expression became a little strange, not knowing what she was thinking.

He took the candle from Nangong Lian's hand, and suddenly saw the inscription on the stone slab, and was shocked.

Nangong Lian couldn't help but ask, "Brother Murong, what have you discovered?"

Murong Yixue's expression became solemn, and when she looked around, she finally discovered the swordsmanship and martial arts method, and her whole face became terrifying.

Nangong was anxious in his heart, and asked again: "Do you see who this dry bone is?"

Murong Yixue didn't answer, but just sighed: "Do you know, who wrote this martial arts method?"

Nangong Lian shook his head in confusion, and hurriedly said, "Brother Murong, don't sell it, tell me quickly." ”

Murong Yixue said in a condensed voice, "Have you ever seen your ancestor?"

When Nangong Lian heard the word 'Shizu', her heart was also shocked, and she shook her head and said: "When I was brought to the Famous Sword Gate by my master, I was only young, and I only heard that Shizu Cao was a famous swordsman in the rivers and lakes, and he had already passed away. ”

Murong Yixue sighed gloomily: "This person is your ancestor, a famous swordsman in the rivers and lakes in the past, Baili Muyun. ”

As soon as these words came out, Nangong was shocked, he didn't expect that the dry bone in front of him turned out to be Baili Muyun, the founder of the famous sword sect, and couldn't help but kneel down on his knees, kowtowing respectfully three times, and even Murong Yixue bowed deeply.

Nangong Lian seemed to think of something, and suddenly said: "If this person is the ancestor, who will be the murderer of him?"

This innocent young man, even looking at the dry murderer's gaze became cold, Murong Yixue looked at him, and hurriedly said, "You must remember, you must not hate him." ”

Nangong Lian said loudly: "He is the murderer of my ancestor, I just want to know who he is!"

Murong Yixue said lightly: "You will know... But I'm going to tell you, the murderer wasn't him. ”

Nangong said pitifully: "It's not him, he fell into the master's palm and stabbed the ancestor with a sword, so the two of them died here, isn't that the case?"

Murong Yixue sighed and said: "If this is the case, how could he write that he was killed by a traitor and died here? Surely you don't want to kill people everywhere. ”

He continued: "If you look at the man's sword again, it will only be a minor wound at most, and it will not lose your life, so this murderer is someone else. If you don't believe it, if these two really die together, how can they have the energy to engrave what they have learned all their lives?"

Nangong pityan muttered: "Yes, since he wrote that he was 'trapped' here by the traitor, if the person he said was the ancestor, how could the ancestor die here? ”

Murong Yixue nodded and said, "Not bad." ”

Nangong Lian sighed lightly: "I almost learned the swordsmanship of the man on the stone wall, since the master duel with him, he must be a fierce person in the rivers and lakes, this kind of evil swordsmanship, I still don't learn it." ”

Murong Yixue said with a straight face: "How can swordsmanship be the distinction between good and evil? The key depends on whether the person who uses the sword is good or evil, and if the person is good, the swordsmanship will be good, and the swordsmanship will be evil." ”

Nangong was stunned, turned around and looked at the swordsmanship on the wall, as if he suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help but ask, "Brother Murong, do you know who this person is?"

Murong Yixue didn't deny it, but she didn't answer his words, she just asked slowly: "The Eight Great Families of Jiangnan, have you heard what your master said?"

Nangong Lian nodded and said: "I only know that the Murong family was the head of the eight great families in the past, but for some reason, only the seven great families remained, and the first of the family became the most prestigious Xie family in Hangzhou." ”

Murong Yixue muttered: "The Xie family is a hereditary general in Hangzhou, Xie Ji Yinlou is rich and rivals the country, and naturally has strong financial resources, so it is not surprising that he fell to the top of the list. There are countless industries of the Su family, among which the Songhe Tower is the most famous, the Li family's Zhibao Zhai, and the Lin family's Buyunxuan are all very famous in the south of the Yangtze River. ”

Nangong couldn't help but smile and said: "And Mrs. Murong, I naturally know about the Bai family, the Xiao family's swordsmanship family, and the master has begged for mercy in martial arts, but... There are only these six, and what kind of person is the other one, how can they never have heard of it?"

Murong Yixue sighed lightly and said, "It's just because this family has a bad fate, and later the family split and existed in name only. ”

Nangong pondered for a long time before he opened his mouth and asked, "Could it be that this person... It has something to do with the family that Brother Murong said?"

Murong Yixue stared at him, his gaze became a little complicated, and he said slowly: "Yes, he was a well-known swordsman in the martial arts with Baili Muyun's predecessors in the past, and he was also a rare confidant and friend, but later... He joined the Demon Cult. ”

Nangong said pitifully: "Demon Sect?"

Murong Yixue nodded and continued: "Shangguan Yun, the leader of the Demon Sect, has superb martial arts, but he alone cannot advance into the Central Plains under any circumstances, but the strength of the four masters under his command is not to be underestimated, and he is one of these four masters. ”

Nangong pityan muttered: "In the past, the four masters of the Demon Sect, I only knew Huangfu Lingyun, and Master Yu said that he has become the new leader of the Demon Sect. ”

Murong Yixue said gloomily: "The person I am talking about, the swordsmanship is strange, and he is deeply appreciated by Shangguan Yun, if he is still alive, presumably the position of the leader of the Demon Sect will definitely be succeeded by him." ”

He continued: "Before the Demon Sect entered the Central Plains, I heard that the Lord of Baili Gate had a decisive battle with him, but everyone in the world did not know the location of the decisive battle, and I had never had the privilege of witnessing this great battle. Later, no one knew who won and who lost, and these two disappeared into the martial arts..."

Nangong Lian sighed lightly: "I'm afraid that the people in the martial arts can't imagine that the two of them are buried here, and I don't know who they were killed..."

He was silent for a long time, and asked puzzledly, "Brother Murong, who is this person, why do you keep refusing to tell him his name?"

Murong Yixue let out a long sigh and said in a slow, long tone: "This person... The surname is Nangong... A single name is a willow character. ”
