Chapter 49: The Soul Knife
The cottage people scattered and fled towards the forest, and the night was dark, like a devouring beast. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info a moment, everyone disappeared into the forest, Zhang Ye and Hua Xiaoyan also chose a direction to escape.
The speed of the two was quite fast, but they stayed away from the cottage for a long time, but they did not dare to stay, and kept walking through the forest all night until the sky was getting brighter and no one was chasing behind, so they stopped to rest.
Looking around, full of dead wood and rotten branches, the two of them should have fled to the depths of the Lianyun Mountain Range. Since no one was chasing them, the two made up their minds and continued to hurry, heading to the east of the Lianyun Mountain Range to find the lost wick of the Soul Suppression Lamp.
The two of them rested for a while, took out the jade slip map and compared it, and found that the two of them were actually walking towards the north at night before, and they had indeed entered the depths of the Lianyun Mountain Range. The two of them identified the direction and walked in a southeasterly direction.
The forest is full of thorns, and when they come, they only care about running for their lives, and the speed is extremely fast, and the clothes on the two of them have already been cut, and they are full of embarrassment, and the speed of rushing is naturally much slower at this time. The two of them walked in the forest for a long time, and it was already sunrise, but they did not go far.
Suddenly, there was a sound in the woods in front of them, and both of them were in a daze, and they stopped, worried that it was the people who broke through the cottage chasing them, but when they heard the sound, they took out their long swords again and slowed down.
The two men approached slowly, their minds tensed, and when they turned around the bushes, they saw a spotted tiger with a fat hare in its mouth, and when they turned their heads, they saw two of them.
The tiger put the hare down in his mouth and roared at them, as if he knew that they were not easy to mess with, and then ran into the bushes with the hare in his mouth.
The two breathed a sigh of relief, put away their swords, and continued on their way. It was only at dusk that the two of them approached the avenue leading to the east side of the mountain.
Rest for the night, and continue the next day. The two walked in the direction of the avenue, but they were no longer close to the avenue. After a short time, I heard another noise in the woods.
Zhang Ye didn't want to have another incident, but when he heard the voice, he couldn't help but stop, as if he was a person in the cottage. Zhang Ye hesitated for a while before rushing towards the place where the sound came from with Hua Xiaoyan.
After getting closer, Zhang Ye finally heard that the source of the voice was the people from Menghu Village, Pingyishan.
I only heard Ping Yishan breathing heavily, but his voice was still loud, shouting: "You old thief, you keep chasing Lao Tzu, what do you want to do?"
The other replied, "Didn't I say it earlier, you gave me the Soul Death Knife, and I won't chase you anymore." ”
"No, I can't. Ping Yishan refused: "This soul killing knife can't be given to you." ”
"Then there's nothing to say. The other man had an old voice because he was an old man.
Zhang Ye and the two gradually got closer, only to see that Ping Yishan's forehead was full of sweat stains, his expression was tired, a huge wound on his chest stretched from his shoulder to his lower waist, and his clothes had already been dyed bright red. The person on the other side of Pingyi Mountain was an old man, but he was burly, not looking old at all, and his face was also full of fatigue at this time, and a wound on his right abdomen seemed to pierce the front and back, and his back was also full of blood.
Zhang Ye recognized that this old man was one of the ten people who attacked the cottage that night.
Hua Xiaoyan said softly: "This old man has the early stage of foundation building. ”
Zhang Ye was stunned for a moment, looking surprised, at this time, both of them were covered with scars and looked tired, obviously they had been fighting for a long time, but they did not distinguish between victory and defeat. Ping Yishan was able to compete with the monks in the foundation building period, Zhang Ye had to be surprised.
Hua Xiaoyan asked again, "Save him?"
Zhang Ye glanced up at the two of them again and nodded slightly.
Zhang Ye held the long sword and walked out slowly. The old man's expression changed suddenly, he turned his head to see Zhang Ye, and was about to open his mouth to ask, when suddenly the black light flashed in front of him, and he felt heavy in his brain, and when he saw the white light flashing in front of him, he lost consciousness.
Ping Yishan looked very embarrassed when he saw that Zhang Ye and the two of them killed the old man with the tricks they used to deal with him that day. He sat down on the ground suddenly, as if he had lost all his strength.
Zhang Ye took off the old man's storage bag, and with a flash of fire in his hand, the old man's body was damaged, and said, "This place is not suitable for a long time." ”
Ping Yishan nodded, reluctantly stood up, and was supported by the two of them, heading towards the depths of the forest.
Not long after walking, Ping Yishan suddenly snorted, and the two saw that he was pale and his breath was weak, so they stopped and put it next to the tree.
Ping Yishan took a few deep breaths, took out a pill and took it, his expression improved slightly, and he said, "Thank you for helping." ”
Zhang Ye asked, "How did you get caught up by that person, and what happened to the others?"
Ping Yishan shook his head and said, "That group of people seems to want to kill them all, you two ran fast and probably escaped, and most of the other brothers in the village have died at the hands of this group." This group of people, the lowest cultivation is also the foundation building. ”
Zhang Ye and Hua Xiaoyan's expressions changed slightly.
Zhang Ye asked again, "How is Xun Qiu?"
Ping Yishan shook his head, and suddenly looked up at Zhang Ye, he looked straight at Zhang Ye for a long time, and seemed to have made an important decision.
Zhang Ye saw that his expression was different, and he didn't ask anymore to see what he was going to say.
Ping Yishan said: "I don't have much time, can you please help me once." ”
Zhang Ye was stunned for a moment, looked surprised, and said, "What's the matter? Aren't you already getting better?"
Ping Yishana shook his head and said, "How can it get better, I fought with the monk of the foundation building period just now for a day and a night, and used the secret method, and time is running out." ”
Zhang Ye's eyes sank, and he said, "What's the matter, you can tell it." ”
Ping Yishan had a flash of inspiration in his hand and took out the long black knife. He took out a jade slip again and put it on his forehead for a moment, the aura on the jade slip flashed, and his originally slightly improved expression instantly turned as white as paper.
Ping Yishan handed the black knife and jade slip to Zhang Ye, Zhang Ye was stunned for a moment, and took it in his hand.
Ping Yishan said: "I am the last descendant of the Soul Sword, and I can't let it be cut off in my hands." If you don't like it, find someone and pass it on to him, leaving a legacy for my Soul Sword. ”
"The jade slip records the grievances and exercises of the Soul Death Knife, which is not a supreme immortal method, so it should be regarded as a little reward. ”
After Ping Yishan finished a few words, he looked straight at Zhang Ye. Zhang Ye held the black knife, only to feel a chill coming, and it seemed that even his soul trembled slightly.
Zhang Ye was silent for a while and nodded.
Ping Yishan smiled, closed his eyes, and disappeared in an instant. The faces of the two changed slightly, but they were helpless.
Zhang Ye didn't have much sadness in his heart, just a little heavy, the way of heaven is impermanent, even if he is a cultivator, he is dead.
The two buried Ping Yishan's body under the tree, took a piece of wood and stood in front of the grave, and the spiritual light in their hands moved slightly, but they did not carve a word.
The two of them then circled the woods, avoiding the place where they had fought the old man, and continued to the east.
Zhang Ye has seen the jade slip, which indeed records a technique and knife technique, and then the origin of the Soul Death Knife. According to the jade slip, the Soul Knife is the treasure of a sect in the north that is the Soul Gate, and later the sect has a grudge with people and is wiped out, but Ping Yishan survived......
Although this technique is extraordinary, it is much worse than the Yuqing Jue of Qingyang Palace, Zhang Ye has no intention of replacing it, and as for the sword technique, he is even less interested.
The two of them traveled in the mountains for more than ten days, and they never encountered other important things, and finally came out of the Lianyun Mountains. Although the wick of the soul lamp is very likely to be in the East China Sea, it is nowhere to be found. Zhang Ye went to Nanqu City with Hua Xiaoyan, came to inquire about the news, and at the same time visited Xia Rou's mother and son by the way.
