Chapter 18 Chapter Eighteen
The two middle-aged women glared at him, turned around and walked forward, Zeng Tianqiang followed behind them, and after a while, they came to the mouth of the canyon.When we reached the mouth of the canyon, we saw the canyon, which was only about five feet wide, but on the left shoulder of the canyon mouth, it seemed that the cliff suddenly split, and there was another narrower mountain crevice, only about a foot or so wide. .
Beside the crack in the mountain, there are two big characters carved in ancient meaning: Sword Valley.And on the mouth of the canyon, there are three other large characters, which are "Blood Flower Valley".
That is to say, going from that canyon leads to the Blood Flower Valley, and entering from that small gap leads to a valley called "Sword Valley".Because the gap in the mountain was not even a foot wide, when Zeng Tianqiang passed by the gap, he couldn't help being curious, he probed his head, and took a look into the gap.
I saw that in the gap of the mountain, it was dark, with steep rocks on both sides, and there was a strong wind, coming out of the gap in the mountain.
The crevice in the mountain was about three feet long, and as one looked forward, the strong wind was blowing against one's face, and one could barely open one's eyes, so one couldn't see where the crevice ended.
Zeng Tianqiang wanted to investigate further, but he heard the two middle-aged women in front say in a very stern voice: "What are you sneaking around, looking around? This is Sword Valley, so you are allowed to look around?"
Zeng Tianqiang was taken aback, turned his head quickly, but saw the two middle-aged women still turned their backs to him, and he didn't know how they knew that he was looking into the crevice in the mountain.
The two middle-aged women continued to walk forward, Zeng Tianqiang followed behind them, and quickly passed through the canyon, and came to an extreme valley. The valley was surrounded by cliffs on all sides. Only that canyon could Passing through here, the momentum is extremely majestic.
As soon as you enter the valley, you will see a blood-red flower with a diameter of only three feet. It is not a real flower, but it is carved out of a blood-red stone.
That blood-red stone flower was placed on a stone pillar, Zeng Tianqiang was amazed in his heart, wondering what this meant?This place is called "Blood Flower Valley". Is it because of this flower that it got its name?
Going forward, there is a big stone flat on the other side of a large pool, on which no grass grows.
The stone of the stone flat is slightly beige, but there are red patterns stretching east and west on it. The red is very eye-catching. At first glance, it looks like it is on the stone flat. It was as if there had just been a massacre, with blood everywhere, horrifying.
In other parts of the valley, the snow is very deep, but on this stone flat, there is no snow at all.
At the end of the stone flat, under the cliff, there is a row of stone houses. Although they are very simple, they seem to have a majestic spirit, which is extraordinary.
The two middle-aged women stopped before Zeng Tianqiang was brought to the biggest house, and said, "Go in by yourself."
Just as Zeng Tianqiang nodded, the middle-aged woman turned around quickly and walked away.
Zeng Tianqiang took a step forward and knocked on the door twice.
The door of the stone house was made of a whole stone slab, but when Zeng Tianqiang stretched out his fingers and closed it, there was a "clank" sound of gold and iron, the sound was endless and very pleasant.
He buckled a few times, only to hear a sigh coming from inside.Then, a weak woman's voice asked, "Who is it?"
Zeng Tianqiang thought to himself, this is ridiculous.
Logically speaking, the person in this stone house should be the owner of the Blood Flower Valley, why is it so strange, as if recovering from a serious illness, listening to this voice, it doesn't sound like a person with extremely high martial arts!
He tentatively replied, "It's me."
The woman asked again slowly: "Who are you?"
Zeng Tianqiang couldn't help laughing, and said: "You and I are strangers, and I don't know that there is a Valley of Blood Flowers, but an old man surnamed Ding said that I had strayed into the forbidden zone and forced me to come here. , if you don’t want to see me, then I’ll take my leave.”
The voice said, "No, you can open the door and come in."
Zeng Tianqiang thought to himself, listening to the man talking, he looked so weak, it would be difficult for him to harm himself, so he opened the door to have a look, what's so scary?
He stretched out his hand and pushed, and the door opened.
There is a rather large stone room where the door opens. The furnishings in the room are extremely simple. There is a stone couch with thick curtains on it. Other than that, there is a stone table and a Looking at the stone chair, I can't see anyone. I think the person who spoke is in the tent.
Sure enough, as soon as Zeng Tianqiang walked in, he heard that weak voice coming from the tent again, saying: "Close the door."
Zeng Tianqiang turned back to close the door, but just as he turned around, he suddenly heard a commotion in the valley, several people shouted: "You can't go in, stop!"
At the same time, there was a person who was flying around the pool and flew forward.
Zeng Tianqiang looked up and saw the two people shouting and chasing after him, it was none other than the two middle-aged women who led him here.And the figure looting in front stopped when it reached the door, it was unreasonable!
How could it be reasonable to look at Zeng Tianqiang, he was stunned for a moment, and then he said nonchalantly: "Ha, you came first?"
Zeng Tianqiang let out a "hum" and ignored him, how could he stride towards the stone couch, the two middle-aged women stood at the door and shouted: "Master, come out quickly!"
At this time, Zeng Tianqiang's heart suddenly brightened. He knew the origin of the words "Chang Gongye". The girl on the stone bed was an unreasonable wife, and she was the mother of the owner of Xiaocui Lake. !
How could it be so unreasonable to hear the urgent cry of the middle-aged woman, as soon as he reached the stone bed, he went to lift the curtain, but when he lifted the curtain here, there was a huge gust of wind With strength, the land forced out from the tent!
In the blink of an eye, Qi Wu Li let out an exclamation and stepped back.
When he retreated back, the gust of wind brought Zeng Tianqiang, who was standing at the door, and knocked him to the outside. At the same time, the stone door also closed with a "bang".
After the stone door was closed, he could no longer see what happened in the house.However, the voice coming from the house can still be heard.
I could only hear three "bang bang bang" sounds from inside.Then, there was an unreasonable scream, saying: "You..."
His scream had an extremely long tail, and it sounded very mournful. When his scream was coming to an end, he heard the woman's weak voice again, saying: "That's right!"
Then, the stone room became completely silent again.
After about half a cup of tea, the woman's voice was heard again: "Where is the man just now, come in." Zeng Tianqiang couldn't help hesitating in this situation.The two middle-aged women behind him whispered: "I told you to go in, what are you doing if you don't go in?"
Only then did Zeng Tianqiang reach out and push the door open. He first looked inward and took a look.
Because the situation in the room was exactly the same as when he opened the door for the first time and entered, there was still a curtain on the stone bed, which was unreasonable, and he didn't know where he went.
Zeng Tianqiang closed the door casually, and sat down on a stone chair.In the tent, the woman's voice came out, saying: "Why do you have such a reason to come together?"
Zeng Tianqiang replied: "It can be said that he insisted that I go to Kunlun Mountain with him, but I really don't want to go."
The woman in the tent suddenly laughed and said: "Now you really don't have to go, you broke into my restricted area, do you know you are dead?"
Zeng Tianqiang smiled wryly: "I really didn't know that senior lived in seclusion, so I..."
When he said this, he stopped abruptly, because when the curtain was raised, a person had already stepped out.
When Zeng Tianqiang saw that the woman had lifted the curtain and came out, he naturally stopped talking.
Sure enough, when the curtain was lifted, a middle-aged woman stepped down.Zeng Tianqiang looked forward intently, and couldn't help being very surprised.Zeng Tianqiang thought to himself that when the middle-aged woman opened her mouth, her words were weak, and if she spoke intermittently, she must be a patient with a severed body.However, the middle-aged woman who stepped down now has a radiant complexion. It seems that she is only in her early forties and is very energetic.
Zeng Tianqiang was stunned for a while, then suddenly remembered that the woman's voice was intermittent, and it happened when he came here for the first time.The situation is not quite the same after how could this reason come here!
He looked at the middle-aged woman intently, and the middle-aged woman sat down opposite him, and said: "It's a good time for you to come, you are the one who attracted him, didn't you?"
Zeng Tianqiang said: "No, I have already said that he insisted on taking me to West Kunlun."
The middle-aged woman smiled again and said: "I have waited here for an unknown number of years before I finally got him. This is finally your credit, but if you can do one more thing for me, I will be more grateful." You!" If it was in the past, then Zeng Tianqiang must have already agreed!
But now, Zeng Tianqiang is much smarter.At this moment, he didn't even know who that woman was, and he didn't know what she wanted to do, so how could he agree?
He shook his head and said, "What's the matter, you talk about it first."
An expression of displeasure immediately appeared on the face of the middle-aged woman.Zeng Tianqiang thought to himself, the middle-aged woman in front of him might be closely related to Lu Laosan, Lu Sansao and others, and she might also be an unreasonable guy, so it would be better for him to get away quickly.
After the middle-aged woman's complexion darkened, she said, "Don't forget that although you have merit, trespassing in the restricted area is also a crime."
Zeng Tianqiang didn't want to argue with him, and said: "Then, I will balance my merits and demerits, and I can leave here." The middle-aged woman looked at Zeng Tianqiang for a long time, and then said: "You are very slippery, but this matter, yes You are good."
Zeng Tianqiang secretly laughed in his heart, wondering if it would be good for him, would you still ask him to go.At the same time, he couldn't help but wonder, because Mr. Ding, Pima Sansha and others seemed to be under the middle-aged woman's subordinates, so why did she still have things to do by herself?
He thought for a while, still shook his head.
The middle-aged woman said: "Aren't you going?" She only said one sentence, then suddenly changed her words, and said: "It makes no sense what is going on now, do you know?"
Zeng Tianqiang didn't know what the other party meant by asking him this way, so he just nodded.
The middle-aged woman sneered, stretched out her hand and opened the curtain, Zeng Tianqiang looked forward and saw that he was lying curled up on the bed.Zeng Tianqiang was secretly surprised, and when he looked carefully, this surprise was really no small matter.
Zeng Tianqiang saw that his unreasonable body had shrunk a lot. His whole body was different from left to right, but now it was completely the same, all skinny, yellow and dry!
One of the unreasonable eyeballs protruded outside, like the eyeball of a dead fish, judging by his condition, he was clearly dead.What's even more frightening is that he doesn't look like he just died, but like a mummy that has been dead for more than ten years!
However, that person is really unreasonable, it is indeed unreasonable to be talking and laughing a moment ago!
Zeng Tianqiang felt an inexplicable terror hit his heart in a split second, and his hairs stood on end for it!He took three steps back in a row, and said, "This...what's going on here?"
The middle-aged woman said "Hey" and said lightly: "He is dead, can't you see it?" Zeng Tianqiang couldn't help but said intermittently: "I saw it, but...he...why did he die?" The woman's voice was even more nonchalant, and said: "Many years ago, I asked him to do something, but he refused to do it and ran away. Now he dares to come back again. Of course he died under my hands."
When Zeng Tianqiang heard it, he couldn't help gasping, thinking to himself, what is this talking about?This is even more outrageous than unreasonable.This really left the tiger's den and arrived at the wolf's den again.
For a moment, he hesitated in his heart, not knowing what to say.
The middle-aged woman said again: "Have you figured it out?"
Zeng Tianqiang raised his head and glanced at the middle-aged woman, but as soon as he made eye contact with the middle-aged woman, he couldn't help being shocked, he had never seen such a terrifying shot in a person's eyes. The fine man!He had been with masters such as Lord Shura, Master of Xiaocui Lake, and Master Qiandu. When these three people looked at each other, their eyes were bright and intimidating.However, these three masters, compared with the middle-aged woman in front of them, are still not far behind.
In an instant, Zeng Tianqiang jumped up as if struck by lightning, and said in a broken voice, "You... are your martial arts very high?"
The middle-aged woman seemed not expecting Zeng Tianqiang to ask such a question suddenly, she couldn't help being stunned for a while, and then said with a smile: "Of course, why do you suddenly ask me like this?" Zeng Tianqiang took a breath and said: " I... I can see that your eyes are brighter than the Lord Shura and the master of Xiaocui Lake!"
The middle-aged woman laughed "haha" and said: "Who are you talking about, it turns out to be these two people! Then even if I haven't absorbed the unreasonable energy, I am still above them."
How can there be such a reason to die a terrifying and bizarre death? Zeng Tianqiang was very puzzled at first, but now when he heard it, how could it be that his internal energy was sucked away by the middle-aged woman? up?
Zeng Tianqiang's heart was even more frightened, and he said: "He... has all his skills, and you sucked it all away?"
The middle-aged woman said impatiently: "You are not old, why are you so long-winded and can't ask, have you ever thought about it?"
Zeng Tianqiang smiled wryly and said: "Your skill is so high, is there anything you can't do yourself? You want me to do it, if you can't do it, but you want me to do it, then what hope do I have?"
The middle-aged woman said with a "huh" and said: "There is some truth in this sentence. What I want you to do is not a difficult task, but to ask a person for something, and that person is a little different from me." I don't want to see him for a small holiday, but when my subordinates saw him, they were so frightened that they couldn't even speak, so I want you to go."
Zeng Tianqiang was stunned for a while, thinking to himself: If that's the case, then this matter is nothing.But that person, of course, is also a person with extremely high martial arts.
It's ridiculous that people in the Central Plains martial arts only think that Lord Shura is the best in martial arts in the world, how do they know that in the far west, there are still people with such incredible martial arts?
Zeng Tianqiang thought for a while, and then said: "If this is the case, then I can go for a walk with you."
The middle-aged woman said happily: "Okay, okay, if you finish this matter, I can promise you whatever you want me to do. Do you think it's fair or not?"
When Zeng Tianqiang heard this, he couldn't help being moved.
That middle-aged woman said such a thing, it was really a big deal.Especially her martial art is so high, it can be said that it is more attractive than any reward, but I can use her strength to find out what kind of person my father is, where is that person, and I want to go to him What to take?
The middle-aged woman lowered her voice and said, "When you came, did you ever see a valley with the words "Sword Valley" engraved in it?"
One is because the middle-aged woman spoke very mysteriously, and the other is because Zeng Tianqiang remembered the dark wind, so he shivered shiveringly, saying: "I have seen it."
The middle-aged woman said: "This is it. The person you are looking for is in the Sword Valley. This person is good at dressing up. Although he is the only one in the valley, he must change into several appearances every day. See for yourself." Be happy. After you enter the valley, no matter what kind of person you meet, don't neglect him, that is the person you are looking for."
Zeng Tianqiang nodded and said, "I can save it."
The middle-aged woman said again: "After you meet him, he may say some irrelevant things to you. You have to do what he likes, accept his wishes, and make him happy. Then, you can accompany him for a day or two." , or three to five days, he will definitely think you are a good person, so you can take the opportunity to propose."
Zeng Tianqiang felt very sad when he heard that middle-aged woman wanted to flatter and cater to others, but he thought again, this is not a matter of life and death, even if he endured it for three or five days, what's the big deal?So he nodded and said, "Okay, what do you want from him?"
At this critical moment, the middle-aged woman didn't seem to want to say much, she hesitated for a while before saying: "You have to ask him...ask him for...a bottle of elixir, the elixir is called...you don't need to know the name, anyway As soon as you mention a bottle of elixir to him, he will know."
Zeng Tianqiang hated this kind of sneaky things the most, but he didn't say anything.
The middle-aged woman said again: "Go quickly, come quickly, don't delay, after getting the elixir, don't open your eyes, understand?"
Zeng Tianqiang was displeased, and said: "Then don't worry, I won't break my word."
Zeng Tianqiang turned around and walked out of the house, only to see that the heavy snow that had just stopped started falling again.
The snow fell very densely, when Zeng Tianqiang came to the entrance of Blood Flower Valley, there were already many snowflakes on his shoulders.But the blood flower at the mouth of the valley was also red, and there was no snow on the flower carved from the stone.
Zeng Tianqiang was curious, so he stood by and watched for a while.
The snowflakes floated down and melted a few feet above the bloody flower, and after melting, the dripping water fell on the bloody flower, and dried up by itself in the blink of an eye.
Seeing it, Zeng Tianqiang was surprised, he stretched out his hand to touch it, but unexpectedly, it was astonishingly hot when he touched it, so he quickly withdrew his hand back, not daring to touch it a second time.
He continued to walk forward and exited the Taniguchi, just in time to see the ten girls walking towards each other.
Zeng Tianqiang stood still, the ten girls were very surprised when they saw him, Zeng Tianqiang thanked them all the time for saving them, so he said: "I want to go to Sword Valley."
As he said that, he pointed to the extremely narrow mountain gap.
Now that he has stepped out of Blood Flower Valley, he has naturally come to the entrance of "Sword Valley".
Zeng Tianqiang originally said the last sentence by the way, because he wanted to express his affection for those ten girls, but he had nothing to say, but as soon as he said this, he saw ten people, and his face suddenly changed!
In an instant, the faces of the ten beautiful girls turned whiter than snow!
Zeng Tianqiang smiled and said, "Hey, what's going on?"
Among the ten girls, some of them actually covered their faces and stopped looking at Zeng Tianqiang, almost turning Zeng Tianqiang into a dead person.There were a few others, who were about to cry, and there were two or three, but they hesitated to speak, and hurried to the Valley of Blood Flowers, and walked in.
Only the oldest one, who walked last, turned around suddenly when he was about to enter the Blood Flower Valley, pointed at the narrow mountain crevice, and shook his hand desperately.
Zeng Tianqiang opened his mouth to ask, but the girl turned around and walked in hastily.
Zeng Tianqiang naturally understood that the girl was gesturing to him to ask him not to go to "Sword Valley".
Zeng Tianqiang was not surprised by this, because he knew that those girls, although they behaved strangely, cared about him very much.And the middle-aged woman said that her subordinates were very scared when they saw that strange person in Jiangu.
Then, out of good intentions, they told themselves not to go to Sword Valley, which is quite understandable;
in love.
So Zeng Tianqiang didn't take their warning to heart.
He took two more steps forward and reached the mountain crevice.
As soon as he stood still in front of the crack in the mountain, gusts of dark wind rolled out from the cave again.
Zeng Tianqiang walked inward against the cold wind. The mountain crevice was very narrow, almost half broken and could only allow people to pass sideways. After walking seven or eight feet, he suddenly saw the light.
Zeng Tianqiang looked forward intently, and saw a small valley in front of him, just like Blood Flower Valley.
In the center of the valley, there is also a water pool, but the water pool is quite small.But on the south side of the valley, there is another passage, which can lead to another valley. It seems that the two valleys form a "V" shape, but as far as Zeng Tianqiang can see, he can't see anyone.
Because the middle-aged woman was very nervous when she ordered Zeng Tianqiang to come, so Qing Zeng Tianqiang was really nervous at this moment. Seeing that there was no one, he wanted to ask a few words out loud, but then he thought, It doesn't seem very good again.
So he just kept going.And before he knew it, his steps were very light.
After a while, he came to the mouth of the gourd. He looked inward, and saw that the valley inside was also covered with snow. At this time, there was a woman wearing a bright yellow cloak, ; came out in a hurry.
The woman's approach was very fast, she came to the front in the blink of an eye, she lowered her head and walked quickly, she almost didn't notice anyone in front of her.And when she found someone in front of her, she stood still and raised her head suddenly, she was only ten feet away from Zeng Tianqiang.
The woman didn't seem to expect that there was someone in front of her, so as soon as she saw Zeng Tianqiang, a horrified expression appeared on her face, she stepped back and took a step back.
Zeng Tianqiang had a face-to-face meeting with the woman, and he couldn't help being stunned.
The middle-aged woman in the Blood Flower Valley had told him long ago that the alien in the Sword Valley was the most proficient in disguise and could disguise himself as a variety of different people, so she ordered Zeng Tianqiang to enter the Sword Valley, Don't neglect anyone you haven't met.
When Zeng Tianqiang was walking forward, he kept imagining in his mind that the strange girl he wanted to see was a girl who looked like a spring flower, at most eighteen or nineteen years old.
But at this time, standing in front of him was indeed a very beautiful girl!
The girl stared at him with a pair of dark and bright eyes wide open, and after being horrified, a very strange look appeared on her face.
Zeng Tianqiang was really stunned, he looked at the girl without blinking, trying to find a trace of make-up on the girl's face, but after looking around, he couldn't see it at all.
Zeng Tianqiang thought to himself, that foreigner's makeup skills can really be said to be in a state of perfection!
He couldn't stop looking at the girl, and the girl showed a shy look, after a while, Zeng Tianqiang forced a smile and said, "Please!"
The girl hurriedly said, "Please!"
Zeng Tianqiang was stunned for a moment, feeling that he had nothing to say.Of course, he entered Sword Valley because he came here for a request, but he couldn't just ask someone for the elixir as soon as he opened his mouth?
The middle-aged woman had taught him to follow the other person's wishes, first please the other person's favor, and then he could speak, but at this time, the other person didn't say a word, he knew what she liked?
Zeng Tianqiang and the girl looked at each other, both looked very embarrassed, after a while, the girl was the first to speak and said: "Senior, please forgive my presumptuousness, please don't blame me."
When Zeng Tianqiang heard this, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, thinking to himself what is this talking about, is he getting old?Why did she call herself "senior" as soon as she opened her mouth, and she had to forgive her for being presumptuous?
If it was different from normal times, Zeng Tianqiang must have expressed his surprise and would have asked a lot.
But at this time, he still remembered what the middle-aged woman taught him, and he only wanted to be perfunctory until the other party liked him, so he didn't take the opportunity to sarcasm, but just replied vaguely: "Okay, okay, naturally, naturally."
The girl showed a gleam of joy, and said: "In that case, senior, don't you blame me?"
Zeng Tianqiang hurriedly said: "There is no reason, why do I blame you? I saw you, and I really like you. You... But do you like to call people 'senior'? Why do you call me like that?"
Zeng Tianqiang was originally only a stranger in Sword Valley, so he must be very old, but now he saw that the other person was just a young girl, she was an older person, and he absolutely couldn't pretend to be one. With his attitude, it was more natural, He dared to ask the other party back.
The girl hurriedly said: "No, of course not, I call you that because I respect... respect Your Excellency."
Zeng Tianqiang was even more puzzled in his heart, wondering why the other party's words were so elusive, as if she was a lunatic.Could it be that she likes such nonsense?
He hastily asked: "Am I worthy of respect? Is there anything worthy of respect for me? You are joking!" The young girl's face immediately showed a bewildered and bewildered look, and she actually didn't know what to say. good feeling.Zeng Tianqiang thought something was wrong, so he hurriedly said: "That's right, I do have a small place, which can be respected by others."
The young girl happily said: "Yes, senior's respectful conduct has many respects, so you don't need to be too polite."
Zeng Tianqiang secretly laughed in his heart, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud. He thought it would be easy, as long as he said some nonsensical words, he could make the other party happy. It was much easier than he imagined. It seemed that the other party I like it very much, I am afraid that after a day and a half, I can open my mouth to get the elixir from the other party, and my wish will be fulfilled.
When Zeng Tianqiang thought about this, he felt very happy.
He saw that the snow was falling more and more heavily, so he looked ahead. In the heavy snow, he saw that there was a room in front of him, thinking why the other party didn't invite him to the house to avoid the snow?
At this time, the girl's head and body were already covered with snow, but he stood in the snow without any intention of moving.Zeng Tianqiang had nothing to say, so he could only say: "You...do you really like standing in the snow?"
The girl said: "Yes, you...how about you?"
Zeng Tianqiang really didn't like standing in the snow when the snow was blowing, but since the other party said so, of course he couldn't express his dislike, so he could only say: "Yes, I like it."
After a while, the man finally found a word to say, but after saying a word, he had nothing to say for a while.
Zeng Tianqiang only felt that it would be difficult to please the other party if this continued, and he had to find more words to read, so he hurriedly said: "Look, the scenery in my Sword Valley is amazing?"
The girl said: "Yes, I have traveled all over the five lakes and four mountains, and this place is the highest and the most secluded."
The girl had just finished speaking, when she suddenly heard an extremely unpleasant howl, not far away.
Zeng Tianqiang was taken aback suddenly, thinking what is this strange scream, why is it so amazing?As he was thinking to the right, he saw a huge monster stumbling over amidst the snowflakes. When he got closer, he saw it was a big white bear.
The white bear came all the way to the two of them, opened its mouth full of thick teeth, and barked twice, its appearance was really frightening.Zeng Tianqiang thought to himself, this must be raised by a different person from Jiangu, so he had to say a few words of praise, he didn't dare to reach out to touch the white bear, but pointed to it and said: "This bear is so white, it's a kind of Hambe. "
The girl said: "Yes, it is extremely rare."
Zeng Tianqiang said again: "How long have you been raising this bear?"
A look of surprise appeared on the girl's face, and she said, "I raise this bear?...This is yours!"
Zeng Tianqiang was stunned, thinking what kind of nonsense is this?How could this bear be mine?He couldn't understand it in his heart, but after thinking about it, he secretly thought that the other party must have given this bear to him.
It is really useless for such a huge bear to come by oneself, but if he refuses, it would be very impolite. If he wants something from others, he must make some excuses, so he hurriedly said: "Yes, it's mine. .”
The girl blinked her eyes a few times, and said: "This white bear is going to visit the valley, so I don't think anyone will come in."
If Zeng Tianqiang heard this sentence, Zeng Tianqiang would definitely be very puzzled again, but at this time, Zeng Tianqiang hadn't heard it at all, because the big white bear was walking towards Zeng Tianqiang, as if expressing his gratitude to Zeng Tianqiang. Very affectionate.
It's not good for Zeng Tianqiang to dodge, and if he doesn't dodge, he's afraid that he will become fierce, so he is very embarrassed, but the white bear hugged and pushed, sending out a great force, pushing Zeng Tianqiang several steps away.
The girl smiled slightly upon seeing this.Zeng Tianqiang stood still, and the white bear rushed over again.
Zeng Tianqiang thought to himself, since the other party saw him fall, he couldn't help but smile coquettishly, thinking that she likes to see him fall, how many times he falls, and the snow doesn't hurt him, why not?
Therefore, he didn't dodge, and stood still, when he was slammed up by the white bear.
How did he know that the force of this collision was unexpectedly great!
A force pushed Zeng Tianqiang's body straight up, causing him to roll over and fall backwards.
This fall, he fell four or five feet away before he finally fell.
Zeng Tianqiang thought that this fall must have been a serious fall.However, when he fell down, he was light and light, as if he was lifted out by a martial arts master, instead of being knocked out by a big bear.
Zeng Tianqiang stood still on the snow and was stunned.
However, while he was in a daze, the momentum of the collision did not end, and his body "thumped" backwards, took three steps back, and with a "bang", bumped away. door, and fell into the house.
Zeng Tianqiang was even more surprised, because if it wasn't for the master's skillful use of energy, he would never have hit someone like this, and the force would break out in two or three times.I think that when the white bear hit me, the other party must have used a clever trick in the dark, so I happened to fall into the house. In this way, I invited myself here to avoid the snow, which can be said to be extremely unique up.
Zeng Tianqiang stood still, and saw that girl also rushed forward, and stood still in front of the door.
Zeng Tianqiang smiled wryly, "I came in backwards."
The girl said: "Same, same." She also walked in immediately.
Only now did Zeng Tianqiang have time to look at the interior furnishings, he saw that they were very elegant and clean, and everything was made of stone.
The girl stood up and didn't sit down, Zeng Tianqiang didn't dare to sit down for fear of offending someone else, he just patted the snow on his body and said, "What a heavy snow!"
This is actually nonsense, but the two of them stood still and no one spoke, but Zeng Tianqiang had to find some nonsense to talk about.
As soon as he opened his mouth, the girl also hurriedly said: "Yes, there is a lot of snow."
In Zeng Tianqiang's heart, he was secretly surprised, thinking that the middle-aged woman told him that when he entered the sword valley, no matter who he met, he had to do what he wanted and make him happy.However, now, that girl is trying her best to follow her own will, what is the reason for this?
Zeng Tianqiang vaguely felt that there must be something wrong with it, but he couldn't tell what it was.
Just when doubts arose in her heart, the girl opened her mouth again and said, "Does it snow like this all the time here?"
The girl's words pushed the doubts in Zeng Tianqiang's heart to the climax!
He stared at the girl, thinking what is this talking about?Is there often such heavy snow here? If you don't know, how would I know?
Judging from this sentence, the girl in front of her will definitely not be someone who lives in the Sword Valley forever!
Although the middle-aged woman had repeatedly told Zeng Tianqiang to obey the people in Sword Valley, Zeng Tianqiang could no longer obey at this moment.He looked at the girl for a long time, the girl's expression seemed to be restless, and Zeng Tianqiang looked around, the girl definitely didn't look like someone in disguise.So he held back and asked, "Who are you?"
The young girl was stunned for a moment, a look of relatives suddenly appeared on her face, and her eyes were filled with tears, she said: "If the name master does not blame me for trespassing on the sword valley, I should apologize to the valley master."
Zeng Tianqiang was even more like Monk Zhang Er, confused and asked, "What did you call me?"
The girl was also stunned for a while, and said: "I call you Valley Master, what's wrong with that?"
Zeng Tianqiang was stunned again, but in an instant, he completely understood that the girl who dared to love was definitely not a stranger in Sword Valley, and she came to Sword Valley to find this stranger!
I regarded her as the owner of the Sword Valley, but she also regarded herself as the owner of the Sword Valley, so I made a fuss for a long time and said inexplicable words for a long time, which made me feel more and more strange. Such a big misunderstanding!
When Zeng Tianqiang thought about this, he couldn't help laughing out loud.And that girl, who didn't seem to understand what was funny, looked at Zeng Tianqiang in astonishment.
Zeng Tianqiang laughed for a long time, then pointed to the tip of his nose, and said, "You, do you think I look like the famous Lord of Sword Valley?"
The girl shook her head and said: "I don't know, but the person who instructed me to come told me that in the Sword Valley, there are many valley owners who live alone. The valley owners are good at disguise and can pretend to be anyone."
Zeng Tianqiang said: "Exactly, that's why when I entered the valley, when I saw you, I also regarded you as the owner of the sword name, do you know?"
The girl couldn't help being stunned when she heard this, and couldn't help laughing.But above her pretty face, Qi Rongfuzhan was immediately covered by a layer of deep resentment, and said with a wry smile: "Then the owner of the valley is not here and I...wouldn't it be a waste of time?"
曾天强道：“你来这里，是为了什么？”
那少女叹了一口气，道：“我是来向剑谷求灵药的。”
曾天强“啊”地一声，道：“那和我一样。”
曾天强的话才出口，那少女的面色，突然又变得难看到了极点。
曾天强“咦”地一声，道：“你为什么？”
那少女便是满面愁容，低下头去，泪水如断线珍珠也似，向下落来。曾天强忙道：“你别哭啊，就算谷主不在，说不定是有事出去了，就会回来的。”
那少女摇了摇头，她又抬起头来，望着曾天强，道：“你可不知道么？”曾天强莫名其妙，道：“不知道什么？”
那少女叹了一口气，道：“这几年来，上剑谷来灵药的人少了，但是以前，前来求药的人，却是十分众多，是以剑谷谷主，曾立下一条谷规，说不吃有多少人来到谷中，他只能将药给一个人，那个人必需武功在其余各人之上，要将别人杀死，自己才能蒙赐灵药。”
曾天强呆了一呆，道：“有这等事情？”
那少女道：“是的，你难道不知道么？”
曾天强心想，那中年妇女却未曾向自己提及这一点过，是以他摇了摇头。那少女后退了一步，道：“谷主如果一回来，我们就是敌人了。”
曾天强奇道：“我和你刚相识，绝无冤仇，何以要成为敌人？”
那少女十分惭愧，低下头去，道：“没有办法，我必须要取到灵药。”曾天强“噢”地一声，道：“我明白了，照规矩，你必须杀了我，才能向剑谷谷主取到灵药，是也不是？”
那少女点了点头，却又哭了起来。
曾天强笑道：“你不必难过，我不和你争就是了。”
那少女喜出望外，道：“你……你不我争？你来取灵药，不是为了救你最亲的亲人么？你怎可以不和我争？怎可以？”
曾天强道：“不是，我本是受人之托而来的，我取不到药……”
他讲到这里，顿了一顿，因为他如果取不到灵药的话，那么麻烦就够受的了。
但是这时候，他却若无其事地一笑，道：“那真是太好了。”
曾天强看到那少女充满了感激的神色，心中也十分高兴，顺口问道：“你农取灵药，是救什么人？”
那少女一听，脸上倏地红了起来。
曾天强笑道：“可是救心上人么？”
那少女的脸上，更是绯红，但是转眼之间，她面上的红晕，却又渐渐地褪去，重又成了一片苍白，道：“是的，我要去救心上人。”
曾天强慨然道：“你放心好了，你既然是求药救人的，我绝不和你争，我这就离去好了！”
那少女不再说什么，只是脸上现出了十分感激的神色来，望着曾天强。
曾天强亲自做了一件十分好的事，所以他明知自己这样离开剑谷，绝不会没有麻烦的，仍是脚步轻松，昂然向外走去。
那少女一直没有出声，曾天强一口气走出了剑谷，在剑谷的口子上，停了一停，向四面看去，只见四周围一个人也没有。
他心中不禁伴伴地跳了起来，暗忖那中年妇人，曾说自己在见到剑谷主人之后，要花上三五天的时间，讨他的欢心，然后才能取到灵药，如今，自己进了剑谷，还不到一个时辰，便退了回来，那只怕是那中年妇人万万意料不到的。
在这样的情形之下，她当然也不会再防备自己，自己岂不是可以趁机离去？
这一走，当然不能再要那中年妇人帮自己弄清自己父亲的事了。但是却也可以省却不少麻烦。
是以他连忙身形展动，向前急奔了出去，这时，天上的雪巳停了，而曾天强轻功，又未曾到达“踏雪无痕”的境地，他的脚印，在雪地之上，看来十分清晰，是以曾天强奔出了里许，便停了下来。
他回头看去，望着自己身后那一长溜脚印，心中十分焦急。
因为这道脚印，给任何人一看到，就可以知道他是由什么方向离去的，那要来追寻他，可以说是再容易也没有的事情了。
曾天强只盼望再一场大雪，那么，新积的雪，便可以将他的脚印，一齐盖过去了。可是，这时的天色，却巳放晴了。彤云如万马奔腾也似，四面散了开去！
曾天强心中暗叹了一声，心想自己何以如此运滞，竟连自己有机会逃走的时候，也没有雪来盖过自己的脚印了！
他正在自叹，忽然又听到，在雪地之上，一个庞然大物，正循着自己所走的路，向前走来，那正是在剑谷中见过的那头白熊！而这时，曾天强再次看到了那头白熊，也不禁看傻了眼！
因为那头大白熊，每一脚踏下去，总是盖住了他留在雪地上的脚印！
大熊的熊足，既在踏在他的脚印之上，那也可以说不稀罕。但照理来说，至少要在雪地上留下了大熊的足印，才是道理。可是，当熊脚踏下去之后，提了起来之际，却带起一蓬飞雪，当飞雪再沉下去之际，刚好将所有的脚印填没，变得在雪地之上，一点痕迹也没有了。倒像是这头白熊，内功极高，而且还懂着用巧劲一样。
要知道“踏雪无痕”只不过是轻功，而这样，在别人的脚印上踏过，结果却反而什么痕迹也不留下，这是什么功夫，曾天强也说不上来。
这种功夫，出自一个髙人身上，已然是使人惊诧不已的了，何况是一头白熊做的事情，哪由得曾天强傻瓜也似的站着？
不一会儿那头白熊便来到了曾天强的面前，一时之间，曾天强也忘了来到的前的是一头白熊了，竟对之讲起话来，道：“啊，你……可是存心助我的？”
一句话出口，才想起自己在对一头白熊讲话，那当真是傻了。忍不住苦笑了一下。
却不料就在此际，竟听得那头白熊道：“是啊！”
曾天强陡地一呆，然后“啊”地一声惊呼，一个转身，向前疾奔而出！他一面奔，一面对连头也不敢回。可是他的身后，却不断传来“嘿嘿”的笑声，听得曾天强毛发直竖，曾天强无论奔得多快，那笑声总是跟在后面。
一想到那笑声竟是一头熊发出来的，实是没有法子不没命似的向前奔越越快，可是那笑声却紧紧地跟在他的后面。
曾天强一直向前奔出，奔到了五六里开外，人已喘气不巳，实在没有法子再跑下去了，双腿一软仆倒在雪地之上。
他一仆倒在地，笑声也停止了。
曾天强喘着气，回头看去，只见那头熊也停了下来。
他在向前看去，只见自己奔出来时的那一长溜印，一点也没有了。
曾天强心中暗忖：自己真的是傻了，那白熊将自己的脚印，完全弄去，当然是一番好意，自己又何必亡命似的奔逃？
但是他继而一想，那头白熊居然是会讲话的，那实在不能不怕。
反正不论怎样，他自己连奔的力气也没有了，不得不坐了起来，道：“你怎么会讲话的。”
那白熊笑了起来，道：“我为什么不会讲话呢？”
曾天强“啊”地一声，心中陡地明白了，道：“原来你是一个人！”
那“白熊”语有怒意，道：“哈，岂有此理，我不是一个人，你将我当做什么东西？哼，你说。”
曾天强翻了翻眼睛，心道：“你是人，但是你披了熊皮，看来和一头白熊，完全一样，我不将你当作一头白熊，又当作什么？”然而，曾天强同时却又想到，这扮成白熊的人，一定是剑谷主了！
是以，他没有将心中想的话讲出来。
他只是心中暗叹，那中年妇人早已告诉自己，剑谷主人最善于化装之术，可有曾天强却的确未曾想到，他竟装成了一头熊，而不是一个人！
看来，不但自己未曾想到，连那个少女，也未曾料到这一点！
他呆了半晌，才道：“多谢阁下将我的脚印，尽皆抹去，我想不会再有人来追我了。”
那“白熊”冷笑了一声，道：“那你也未免将事情看得太容易了，你可知此处，仍在她的禁区之内么？若不出她的禁区，你怎可以为巳是安全了？”
曾天强一怔，心想这倒难了，难道自己请他继续帮助，他也肯答应么？曾天强正在想着，忽然听得远处，又有哭叫之声，隐隐地传了过来。
那种哭叫之声，曾天强也不是第一次听到了，他一听，便知道那是什么人所发出来的了，是以立时面上变色，道：“披麻三煞来了。”
那“白熊”人立了起来，但立即又恢复了原来的姿态，道：“你只管向前走，有我在，怕什么？”
曾天强一听得那句话，胆子顿时壮了起来。
他向前走着，那“白熊”仍然跟在后面，走出了一段路，哭叫之声，也越来越近了。
蓦地，前面出现了一条灰白色的人影，飞也似疾，向前掠了过来，随着划空而至的哭声，那人陡地便到了曾天强的面前。
曾天强一看到披麻三煞中的一个，已到了面前，不自由主地停了下来。那女子一看到了曾天强，也是身形陡凝，失声道：“咦，是你？你怎地走了？”
曾天强忙道：“是啊，我走了！”
那女子翻着一双怪眼，道：“你擅入禁区，就那么容易离开，我看你是私自逃走的，你再跟我回去一次，我才信。”
曾天强面上变色，连忙回头去看那头“白熊”。而披麻三煞，在奔掠之际，一直鬼哭神号也似的在嚎叫着，一个突然停止了哭叫声，即是表示有了意外，已停了下来，另外两个，便也立时知道。
是以，其余两煞，灰白色的人形，也已出现，而那头“白熊”，却似乎一点打算也是没有！
曾天强无可奈何，只得道：“我真是……堂而皇之离开的，你看，还不止是我一个人哩！”
他这句话才出口，其余两煞，也巳赶到了！
三个人成鼎足之势，将一人一“熊”，围在中心，三煞的面目，本就极其恐怖，这时看来，更是令人说不出来的不舒服。
三人一齐赶到，互望了一眼，齐声道：“你跟我们回去吧！”
曾天强道：“回去？”
三煞看出曾天强张皇失措，大是不对头，便连声冷笑，其中一个，伸手便向曾天强的肩头抓来。
曾天强的身子一缩，缩到了“白熊”的前面，但是那一煞伸手极快，曾天强肩头一紧，仍然被他五指抓住，可是也就在此时，他只觉得那“白熊”在自己的背部，顶了一顶，曾天强顿时觉得一股大力，直透了过来，向肩头之上传去，而也就在这时，那一煞怪叫一声，五指一松，身子向后，疾弹了出来！
另两煞一声怒叫，又向前攻了过来，一左一右，来势极快。
曾天强心知那“白熊”的武功极高，披麻三煞绝不是对手，他早巳放了心，只见两煞一向前来，便五指如钩，抓向他的胸口。
曾天强索性一动不动，听候他们抓到。
那两煞的两抓，抓到了他的胸前，却又不立时插下，五指一翻，向曾天强的太阳穴捏来。那一下的怪式之怪，实是大大出乎曾天强的意料之外，当曾天强乍一见她们两人，双双伸手，来捏自己的太阳穴之际，不由自主，向后退出了一步。
他一步才向后退出，便陡地省起，反正自己不是披麻三煞的敌手，退也是没有用的，因之连忙又站定了身子，这一站一退之间，身形反而不稳，向后一仰，撞到了那“白熊”的身上。“白熊”向他的背后一拱，曾天强又身不由主地向前，跌了出去，那一跌的力道，却是大得出奇，“嘭嘭”两声响，撞在两煞的身上！
曾天强的身子，一撞到两煞的身上，只听得两煞怪叫了一声，便向后直飞了出去，而曾天强自己，反倒稳稳地站定了。
只见那两煞在半空之中，翻翻滚滚，一直向外跌了出去，方始落下地来，一落到地上，仍不免向外，翻滚了几下，才能够手撑着雪地，站了起来，可知道一撞的力道之大！
曾天强心中大喜，暗忖：那“白熊”的功力如此之高，竟将上层内家功，“隔山打牛”的气功，使得如此之巧妙，有他相助，那又何怕披麻三煞？
这时披麻三煞已重新站在一齐，三双绿幽幽的眼睛，望定了曾天强，但是却又不敢过来。
曾天强大着胆子喝道：“你们三人，绝不是我对手，还不快远远滚开？”
他只当三人刚才已吃了大亏，此际自己一喝，必然是拘头鼠窜不已了。却不料披麻三煞仍然站着不动，并无后退之意。
曾天强心中，不禁发毛，心忖自己虽有“白熊”相助，但是那扮成白熊的，究竟是什么样人，自己却也不知道。若是血花谷中的高手，倾巢而出，他是不是还肯帮助自己呢？
一想及这一点，曾天强猛地又想到了一点十分蹊跷之处，那便是披麻三煞一来到近前，第一句话便是“原来是你”，倒像是认得他的一样。但当他看到披麻的时候，他是扮成了女子，混在那十个少女之中的，照理来说，披麻三煞，是不应该认得他的！
一时之间，双方僵立着，曾天强心中焦急，不知该如何才好，只是频频回头，去看那头白熊，而那头白熊，却也一点没有表示。
过了半晌，只听得披麻三煞冷笑道：“你奉主人之命到剑谷去，莫非已达目的了么，若是未达目的，私自离开，那便是死罪，主人已防到你有此一着，早将你相貌行止，告诉了所有防守之人，你想要闯出禁区去，那可是在做梦……”
披麻三煞的声音，本就刺耳难听之极，这时三个人一起开口，便听得曾天强牙龈发酸，然而三人讲到了一个“梦”字之际，突然听得三人的口中，各发出了两下异样的“咯咯”声。
紧接着，三人面上的神情，便难看到了极点，紧紧地闭住了口。
曾天强也不知道发生什么事情，只是好奇地望着她们三人。
三人闭口并没有多久，便突然间怒吼了起来。随着他们的怒吼，口中鲜血迸流，仔细看去，只见了三人的门牙，俱已被打落了。
三人一面怒吼，一面却不敢不向后退去。然而她们在身子后退之际，各自手臂振动，只听得“嗤嗤嗤”三下响，三支黑焰，直冲云霄，竟是发了三支信号箭。
曾天强一见，便“啊”地一声，转身道：“不好，这信箭一发，所有的高手，便都被召来了！”
“白熊”却“呵呵”笑道，“不必怕，你跟我来，我自有办法。”
曾天强此际，虽然还不知道扮成那“白熊”的何等样人，但是对他却已极之佩服，一听得他叫自己跟他走，当然毫无异议。
那“白熊”向前走了出去，曾天强便跟在后面，走出了没有多远，四面八方，但异声大起，有号哭之声，也有异笑之声，更有青狼的呜呜声，赶狼皮鞭的“刷刷”声，当真是惊心动魄！
曾天强向四面看了看，仍是一点躲避的地方也没有，而这次，又是“白熊”走在前面，他起在后面，一溜清晰的脚印，留在雪地上，追踪前来的人，要发现他的踪迹，可以说再容易也没有了。
曾天强频频挥汗，道：“他们来了，他们来了！”
“白熊”道：“来就由他们来好了，怕什么？”
曾天强道：“有一个姓丁的老瞎子，厉害得紧，若是血花谷那个女谷主来了，事情更麻烦，你知道么？连岂有此理都是死在她的手上的！”
曾天强急急地讲着，但是又想到自己所讲的，对方未必听得懂，是以又补充道：“岂有此理姓鲁，是小翠湖主人的父亲！”
那“白熊”却仍然毫不在乎地道：“我知道，他是阴阳神君鲁不惑。”
曾天强本来是想立即反驳对方，既然知道，那么准备如何应付呢？可是他的话还未出口，便已听到了“阴阳神君鲁不惑”七字，他不禁呆住了！
岂有此理就是阴阳神君鲁不惑！那却是曾天强做梦也未曾想到的事情！阴阳神君鲁不惑在武林中的声名极髙，当修罗神君还未出名之际，邪派之中，便是他的天下，但近数十年，武林相传，均说他巳死了。也未曾听得有什么人说起他就是修罗神君的丈人。人家都将他当作上一代的武侠怪杰，再没有人以为他是还在人世了。但是，他居然还在人世，却是被他的女儿，小翠湖主人禁锢在山谷之中，如今，他巳死了，又是死在一个可能是他的妻子的女人手中。
What the hell does this happen?
曾天强心中乱成一片，实是难以理得出一个头绪来！而在四面八方，异声大作的情形之下，他实在无法理得出一个头绪来！
他停了下来，又忍不住道：“他们人多，你一个人应付得了么？”
那“白熊”笑道：“我可不是人，我是一头熊。”
曾天强苦笑道：“前辈，在这样的情形之下，你还有心思开玩笑？”
曾天强这一句话才讲完，只见左侧，雪花乱飞，十辆由青狼所拉的雪橇，将积雪溅了出去，疾驰而至，转眼之间，便巳到了眼前。
而一到眼前，只听得一下鞭响，十条长鞭，一齐挥动，虽是十鞭齐挥，但是由于十人的动作不一，鞭响却只有一下。
那一下鞭响过处，雪橇的来势，陡地慢了下来。但是，雪橇的赤势虽然慢了，那十头青狼，却是脱缰而出，十条狼影，向前蹿了过来。
眼看十条又高又在的青狼，将要扑到了曾天强的身上，又是一下清脆的鞭响，十条狼一齐停了下来，蹲在雪地之上，成了一个径可两丈的圆圈，将曾天强紧紧地围在中心。
曾天强四面看去，只见血口如盆，血牙似戟，不禁软了半截！
他还希望那赶狼而来的那十个人，正是曾经解过自己几次围的十名少女，那么多少还有点情可讲。可是他抬头一看间，又不禁心中生寒，赶狼来的，那是什么明艳照人，笑语如珠的少女，而是十个平面目平板，一杀煞气的中年妇女！
那十个中年妇女掠向前来，每一个站在一头狼的旁边。
曾天强紧靠着那头“白熊”，一动也不敢动。
也就在此际，一声阴险的冷笑，倏然传近，一个老者，巳飞掠而到，到了近前，披麻三煞，也是去而复返，只不过站得远些。
而另外，还有十来个奇形怪状，一看便知道是武功非常的人，也已赶到，但这些人并未曾赶到狼圈之内。只有丁老爷子一人，是进了狼圈，站在曾天强之前的。
曾天强心中评评乱跳，一句话也讲不出来。
丁老爷子冷冷地道：“曾朋友，你擅入了禁区，谷主免于追究，只不过托你一件事，你何以居然不办，来个不告而别？”
曾天强道：“我……我……”
丁老爷子厉声道：“若想活命，快跟我回去。”
曾天强仍道：“我……我……”他除了一连说几个“我”字之外，实是无话可说！
