Chapter 11: The Old Man and the Dog

Xing Wanxia was about to cry, shook her head and said, "I have said it many times, and this matter has nothing to do with my Holy Sect. ”

The empty phase looked at Master Li and said, "Senior Sister Li, this Songheguan and Qixingmen are both affiliated sects of your Shushan faction, and they are in the Shushan sphere of influence, so you can take the idea." ”

Master Li said lightly: "I have also said many times that I will never cooperate with the Demon Dao Demons, and I will find out about this matter." ”

Yuan Bao saw that there was no room for maneuver, and now the three of them lost the lead step by step, and they didn't have a clue, and this Demon Dao Demon Maiden Xing Sunset seemed to know much more than the three of them, and it was indeed beneficial and harmless to cooperate in the investigation, but for some reason, he subconsciously believed what the Demon Dao Demon Maiden Xing Sunset said.

He said in a low voice: "Senior girl, now a mysterious and powerful force is surging in the dark, hundreds of people have died, I don't know how many people will lose their surnames for a moment, in my opinion, it is better to put aside the sect's views for the time being, and make every effort to find out that mysterious force is the top priority." ”

Master Li frowned, looked at Yuanbao, and said slowly: "I want to cooperate with you and her, my Shushan faction categorically does not cooperate with the Demon Dao." ”

The Shushan faction and the Bodhi Temple are the same five major factions, and they have always been in the same spirit, and now the Shushan disciple Li Shishi has expressed his position, and he will not dare to cooperate even if he wants to, and he is busy saying: "My Bodhi Temple and the Shushan faction will always stand on the same front." ”

Xing Wanxia looked at the two of them, suddenly sighed, and said, "The view of the sect, the distinction between good and evil, is it really so important?"

Master Li said slowly: "This is morality, it will never be possible to cooperate with the devil, this time I won't kill you, and the next time we meet, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless."

After saying that, he turned around and left the inn.

Kongxiang hurriedly got up, glanced at the Yuan Bao who was sitting upright, and said, "Yuan Shaoxia, you ...... Can you go?"

Yuan Bao raised his head and drank a glass of wine, and said, "I can't go"

The empty phase stomped his feet, and he wanted to chase Master Li.

Xing Wanxia shouted: "Monk Hua, although you don't want to cooperate with me, I still have to point you out, Pinghu, twenty miles northwest of Xiaoqi Town, maybe there are clues, you can check it out."

Master Li and Kongxiang walked out of the inn one after another, it was already dark, Xiao Er lit the two lanterns at the door and picked them up at the door with a bamboo pole. The number of people in the inn gradually increased.

This inn is not big, the second floor is the guest room, the first floor is the hall for dining, there are eight tables, and now six have sat diners.

An old man in Tsing Yi with a white beard is pulling the erhu, with a low tune, as if he is like an old man, suffering from vicissitudes. There was also a big yellow dog lying on his stomach beside the old man who was also very old and in a state of malaise.

Yuan Bao and Xing Sunset sat opposite each other, and there were seven or eight dishes on the table. Yuan Bao lifted the wine jug and sniffed it, and said: "This is a good wine, a thirty-year-old flower carving." ”

Xing Wanxia looked at Yuanbao's intoxicated appearance and said with a smile: "You are really a person in the wine road." ”

Yuan Bao filled himself with a cup, raised his head and drank it, and said, "I said I was a little drunkard." ”

Under the candlelight, the delicate face of the sunset flashed with a strange brilliance, and it seemed that even the eyes were bright, like a pearl in a shell, which made people feel excited. But she sighed at this moment, looked at the ingot, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that you are not from the Holy Sect. ”

Yuan Bao smiled and said, "It's a pity that you are not a person in the right path." ”

Xing Sunset diverted the topic and said, "Why don't you tell the teacher girl your identity"

Yuan Bao said while drinking: "I said, I have no door and no faction, the master's name is Tong Qian, and he has already traveled westward with a crane." ”

Xing Wanxia's face changed slightly, and she lost her voice: "Zhuge ......" seemed to realize something, and said in a low voice: "Sword God Zhuge Kong Fang has passed away?"

Yuan Bao stared at Xing Sunxia and said, "What's the fuss about this, everyone has to die, and he is already an old man who is more than a hundred years old, so it's not strange to die." ”

Yuanbao's eyes suddenly lit up, flashing with a strange brilliance. Whenever he thought of that old man, his blood would boil, because everything about Zhuge Sword God was enough to make anyone's blood boil. He has been retired for decades, and his legend is still alive and well.

Even now, when the two righteous and demonic Dao heard the four words Zhuge Kongfang, their faces changed.

Zhuge Kongfang's death has not yet spread in the world, his death is the end of an era, and each generation of descendants of the reincarnation sword technique leads an era.

The voice of the erhu suddenly paused, and the string was broken. The old man lowered his head and muttered, "Another string has been broken......

......The old yellow dog barked twice in a low voice, as if comforting his master.

Every inch of the old man's skin was wrinkled, like the bark of a thousand-year-old tree, and his strength seemed to be no longer enough, so he trembled and took out a new string from his bag and replaced it, and pulled it up again, but his voice was deeper than before, as if telling a story. The vicissitudes of the tune are sad and sad, which makes people's hearts sour.

Yuan Bao glanced at the old man and sighed slightly. Xing Wanxia also turned her head to look at it and said, "Your master is older than him?"

Yuan Bao said: "Almost"

Xing Wanxia said regretfully: "A generation of sword gods fell, it's a pity, more than eighty years ago in the Kunlun battle, Zhuge Kong Fang, who was less than twenty years old, defeated sixteen Kunlun elders with one move to cut the sky and draw his sword, what a young hero that was." ”

Yuan Bao raised his head and drank another cup of Huadiao, and said, "Don't talk about him, say what is in front of you." ”

Xing Wanxia took a deep breath and said, "Do you really believe me?"

"I believe in you. ”

"Okay, in that case, I won't hide it from you, it was a group of people who destroyed Songheguan and Qixingmen. ”

"I know. ”

"There were six of them. ”

"Eh?" Yuanbao's expression changed slightly, and he said in surprise: "Impossible, there are only six people?"

Xing Sunset said: "That's right, six people!"

Yuan Bao is also a master of swordsmanship, and he knows that if there are only six people, the cultivation and swordsmanship of those six people are only afraid that they have reached the realm of transformation, otherwise it will be impossible to kill hundreds of cultivators in a very short time. Hundreds of people didn't even have a chance to escape.

The whole world can do this, Yuan Bao has already thought of which six people. His face became very solemn, and he said, "Could it be the Taihang Six Sword Immortals?"

Xing Sunset smiled and said, "You are so smart"

Yuan Bao shook his head and said categorically: "It is absolutely impossible, the Taihang Six Sword Immortals have been killed by my master since the battle in Taihang Mountain thirty years ago, and it is impossible for them to be resurrected." ”

Xing Wanxia shook her head slightly, and said, "I was also startled last night, but they were indeed the Taihang Six Sword Immortals of the year. ”

Yuan Bao looked at the bright and clear eyes of Xing Sunset, and said slowly: "You weren't born thirty years ago, and you don't know them. ”

Xing Wanxia said: "Although I haven't seen them, I will never mistake the sword in their hands and the sword trick they cast. ”

Yuanbao's face was unprecedentedly solemn.

Taihang Six Sword Immortals, he naturally knew that his cultivation was a ruthless Nine Sword Duel, and he killed innocents indiscriminately back then, and was killed by his master with a sword at the foot of Taihang Mountain. The man who has been dead for thirty years now has been resurrected?

Xing Wanxia looked at Yuanbao's uncertain expression and said, "They are not far from Pinghu." ”

Yuanbao's face changed greatly, and he said, "In Pinghu, then you still let the empty phase and the teacher girl go there...... The two of them are by no means the opponents of the Taihang Six Sword Immortals!"

Yuan Bao dropped the wine glass, ran out of the inn desperately, showed his skills, flew in the sky, and flew straight to Pinghu Lake twenty miles northwest of the town.

Pinghu Lake is located about a few miles north of Qixing Peak, and is a freshwater lake, which is very large, about ten miles. The lake is rich in a species of schizophrenia, and this is the only fish in the whole world.

The surface of the lake is calm and there are almost no waves, so the locals call it Ping Lake.

In the middle of the Ping Lake, there is an island in the middle of the lake, which is not big, only 100 zhang in size, and it seems to have a faint light flickering from a distance.

Under the moonlight, Master Li and Kong Xiang stood on the east bank of Pinghu Lake, looking at the island in the middle of the lake in the distance.

The night breeze blew, swept up Master Li's three-foot green silk long hair, and brought up the corners of her clothes, she was like a beautiful but cold jade carving, motionless looking at the small island in the middle of the lake in the darkness in the distance.

The empty phase finally couldn't help it, and said: "Senior Sister Li, that demon girl won't lie to us, maybe she has set up an ambush around, it's not good for us to come in rashly, I think it's better to come back after dawn tomorrow."

Master Li said slowly: "If you are afraid, stay here." ”

The blue waves are shining, swaying. The lake reflects the starlight and moonlight in the sky, forming a faint gray-white film of light, which is very beautiful.

Master Li was on tiptoe, and his body flew silently towards the island in the middle of the lake. The empty phase is helpless, so I can only keep up.

There was no one on the island in the middle of the lake, and a faint red light came from a natural abyss in the middle of the island. It turns out that this flat lake is a small volcano, and the bottomless abyss with a diameter of about one zhang vertically down is the crater. Looking inside, you can faintly see a red light shining.

Master Li looked down, frowned, and said, "It seems that he wants to go down." ”

The empty phase stopped again, and said: "Senior Sister Li, the situation below is unknown, just the two of us are weak, why not wait for a large number of masters from the Shushan faction to come and then go down to investigate." ”

Master Li said: "I can't wait, although I have already sent a message back to the sect, and the elders will arrive as soon as tomorrow morning, maybe those mysterious people below have already left by then." ”

The empty phase sighed and said to himself: "Red face trouble, red face disaster, it seems that the little monk's life is difficult to protect tonight." ”

The two of them jumped into the crater one after the other. The speed of their descent is not fast, both of them are from famous families, they are cautious, and they are afraid that someone will hide in the dark of the mountain pass and sneak attack, so they both hold their breaths, hold the magic weapon fairy sword, and be on guard.

It took about a stick of incense for the two to land in a huge cave at the bottom of the lake, which was about 800 zhang away from the surface of the lake, which was considered to have gone deep into the ground, and at first there was a rushing red magma river, more than ten zhang wide, flowing slowly from west to east, causing the cave to be extremely hot.

Looking to both sides, there are cracks in the ground that are not visible at a glance, and there are almost no traces of artificial excavation.

And to the west there was a faint strange sound, plop, plop, which seemed to be caused by the beating of a hammer, dull and long.

The empty phase whispered, "There's someone over there!"

Senior Master Li nodded and said, "Senior Brother Void Phase, be careful, let's go over and take a look, and if we can't deal with it, we will quickly withdraw." ”

The empty phase wiped a handful of sweat and muttered: "I finally said a normal word, but if you can't beat it, you naturally have to run." ”

The two of them were on guard, and slowly walked in the direction where the voice came from, and gradually the sound of "oh oooo" became clearer, just like the kind that is often seen in blacksmiths.

In front of it was an even larger space, with a magma flow ten zhang wide flowing slowly through a section of space to the north, and a huge mountain stone platform hundreds of zhang in length and breadth to the south. The two of them hid behind the rocks and looked and saw that there were about a dozen people inside.

Six people wore black robes and hats, and each of them had a four-foot-one-inch long sword stuck under their black robes.

A middle-aged Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe covered in blood seemed to be seriously injured, and there were blood stains on the corners of his mouth and sleeves.

An old man with a gray beard, trapped by a glittering rope.

A large, bare-chested man with his muscles exposed, tower-like, nearly nine feet tall, striking a sword with a giant hammer.

The last man was a small old man, a dwarf who looked to be only four feet in height, and was now blowing his beard and glaring at the giant man.

The giant man is forging a sword, a sword of three feet and seven inches, and the quenching fire is not an ordinary fire, but a magma heavenly fire in this underground abyss.

The empty phase glared and said in a low voice: "The Sanmu Dao people of Songheguan and the Seven Star Sect Situ Yan have been restrained, what should we do?"

Before Master Li could speak, a black-robed man shouted, "Who?"
