Chapter 21 Chapter 20 Kunlun Snowfield

The world is floating in samsara, and people are like flying birds, but they don't know where to stop. Xin Tieshi woke up suddenly, and he didn't know why, but he woke up suddenly. He had a very long dream, dreaming of many, many people, Ruohua, the genius doctor, Xun Wujiu, old man Jiuhua, Ling Jun, all appeared in his dream. The dream is still like reality, full of killing and suffering.Jiang Yulou and Ruohua overlapped and appeared in front of him, sometimes with deep frowns and smiles, and sometimes bloody hair.But both of them seemed to be untouchable shadows, no matter how he chased them, they were both so close and so far away.

His pain was like a fire burning his frail body. Then he woke up suddenly. He sat with his head bowed, and it took him a long, long time to realize that it was just a dream.A wry smile crept onto his cheek, so what if it was a dream?The reality is not going to be any better. A heavy tiredness hit his heart, he wanted to lie down, think about nothing, do nothing, just lie quietly like this, regardless of life and death. But he couldn't, he knew that in his life, there was another object of search: Jiang Yulou. He knew that the cliff was very high, and there were huge rocks on the bottom, not to mention the demonized Xun Wujiu, Jiang Yulou's chance of surviving was very slim, but he still wanted to look for her, because his life had no other meaning .Ruohua, Jiang Yulou, everyone owed him a lot, and he couldn't repay it all in his life.

He stood up slowly and let out a long sigh.He has decided that after finding Ruohua, he will send her to Mount Jiuhua and let her be with his master forever. Then, he went to look for Jiang Yulou, and if he found a bone, he would bury it with her; if he found a person, he would stay with her for life. The thought eased his heart a little. He looked around.This is a mountain, a barren mountain. The mountain is covered with thick snow, and it can be seen that the mountain is extremely barren, and there are almost no trees.The eagle flew high in the sky, making a loud chirp from time to time.Under the bleak sunlight, the mountains were all white.Here is desolate, silent, closed, and remote.

Xin Tieshi couldn't help being a little surprised.He couldn't imagine waking up from a dream, how could he be in such a strange place. What happened when he passed out? How did he get here? Where did the miracle doctor go? He moved his muscles and bones, felt that the true energy in his body could circulate freely, the injury of his broken arm hadn't worsened, and the Yufeng Jue could still be used against the cold wind, so he couldn't help but feel relieved. Looking around the vast expanse of snow and mountains, I don't know if I can go out.Xin Tieshi hesitated for a moment, then roughly recognized the direction, and headed south.

Jiuhua should be in the southeast. The snow in the mountains is extremely thick, and it is extremely cold. The mountains are high and windy, blowing on the surface like iron, and the mountains are so steep that it is almost impossible to walk.Xin Tieshi became more and more distracted. He didn't have any luggage or dry food on him. Seeing the desolation and poverty, he was afraid that he would starve to death before he walked out of this high mountain. Suddenly, an extremely bright sword light shot up into the sky, and the high-flying eagle let out a scream, its head was chopped off by this sword light, and it fell down.

Xin Tieshi was startled, and in that instant, he had already seen clearly that this sword light was a curved blade like a full moon, and just by relying on this movement of flying several tens of feet, the sword cut the flying eagle, this time Human martial arts are by no means inferior to him!But someone is always good, at least he can ask the way, so as not to blunder like this.Xin Tieshi was refreshed and ran towards the place where the sword light fell. It was a huge mountain depression. The cold wind blew here and was blocked by rocks. The depression was much warmer, and even a large dense forest grew there.Xin Tieshi never expected to see so many people.

One of them sat cross-legged on the ground, his eagle-like eyes were fixed on the hawk circling high above the sky. When an hawk swooped a little lower, his hand quickly lifted up, and the bright sword light pierced the sky again. As soon as it was cut, the eagle lost its head and fell.The other person beside him held one, and there seemed to be a great suction in his hand, and the eagle corpse automatically flew towards him.He stretched out his hand to catch the eagle carcass, and threw it to another person.The man's right hand was as black as black ice, and he wiped lightly on the broken part of the eagle's head, and the gushing blood froze immediately. His hand slowly stroked the eagle's body, and the eagle was covered with frost all over in a moment, and was killed. He threw it into a box full of ice and snow.

Xin Tieshi was even more shocked. The swordsmanship of Jiutian Xiangwu, the palm strength of catching dragons and controlling cranes, and the inner breath of condensing snow and melting ice are extremely rare even in the Central Plains martial arts. kill an eagle! Surprised in his heart, he couldn't help but slow down.Suddenly, there was a sound of ding ding beside him, and he turned his head hastily, and saw a person holding a giant hammer and hitting the rock with a hammer.Even though the hammer was huge, the man's internal strength was even greater, after a few hammerings, the boulder split open and shattered into pieces more than two feet long.The other person lifted a piece with his palm and threw it far away.The stones seem to have eyes, and they are neatly stacked together, even if it is placed by a craftsman for many years, it is not so neat.

In addition, there were people who felled wood with their palms, and others dug out a large piece of soil with their fingers. None of them showed profound martial arts, but they were all very young, and the oldest was no more than seventeen or eighteen years old.No matter what they were doing, they were extremely focused. No one ever glanced at Xin Tieshi, let alone noticed Xin Tieshi's surprise. Xin Tieshi was not only surprised, but shocked. The disciples of Mount Jiuhua are the best in martial arts, and every disciple is a dragon and phoenix among the people. Their martial arts are extraordinary and refined, and they are well-known in the world.But the martial arts of every young man here is by no means inferior to senior brother Xin Tieshi!

How can this not move Xin Tieshi? What puzzled Xin Tieshi even more was that these people were not practicing martial arts. Those who killed eagles did so for the purpose of killing eagles, those who quarried stones did so for the purpose of quarrying stones, and those who felled trees did so for the purpose of felling trees.Their peerless martial arts seem to have been cultivated for these labors. Suddenly, he saw an old woman staggering towards this side with two buckets full of snow water in her hands.The old woman was too old, and the bucket was too big. The old woman was struggling and almost slipped and fell to the ground with every step.Those people who kill eagles kill eagles and chop stones don't seem to have seen it.Xin Tieshi couldn't bear it, and when the old woman stepped on a piece of gravel and almost fell, he rushed up and supported the old woman.

He reached for the bucket, trying to help her.The old woman seemed to have been greatly frightened, desperately snatched the poke, and rushed out with a bucket as if fleeing.It was as if Xin Tieshi wanted to take her life! Xin Tieshi was stunned, he didn't understand what he did wrong, and he didn't understand why the old woman was so afraid of him.Suddenly, a voice came from above: "You must feel strange, don't you?" Xin Tieshi raised his head and saw a young man lying on the tree. The tree was very thin, and the branches were as thick as fingers, but the young man seemed to be very comfortable lying down, and the branches did not move at all.He wore a bronze mask on his face, which was dark and dark, and he couldn't see his face. Xin Tieshi said: "I just want to help her carry water, who knows..." The young man with a green face said lightly: "Because if she accepts your help, it will prove that she can no longer support herself, and she must die." Xin Tieshi's body shook, and he blurted out, "Dead?" The young man said: "You have traveled all the way, of course you know that this place is extremely barren. Ordinary people spend all their energy, but they can only support themselves. Therefore, those who cannot work can only die." Xin Tieshi said: "No one... No one is willing to give her some food?" The young man said: "Of course, as long as you have enough food. But how much can you share with her? Everyone has someone to support. The sword wielder, who kills eagles with all his might, can support five people, except his three." For his family, he can also donate to an old man; for the stone cutter, he can support three people, but he has four brothers, all of whom are young, and they can only eat one meal when they are hungry. One piece of strength, one piece of food If you can work, you will have food. Here, it is very fair. If you can’t work, and no one is willing to support you, you can only die. Because there is absolutely no extra food here. Qiao’s sons and daughters are all dead. If she can't support herself, she can only die." When he spoke of death, his voice was extremely stable, without the slightest fluctuation.He looked at the people in front of him, seeing them working hard, and there was no compassion or sympathy in his eyes. In this mountain filled with ice and snow, there is no sympathy at all. Just because they have long accepted the desolation and barrenness here. Their blood was already cold. Xin Tieshi was speechless, and said for a long time: "Then why don't you go out? There is a lot of food outside the mountain. With these people's martial arts, they can easily feed hundreds of people!" The boy raised his head, looked into the distance, and said leisurely, "Yeah, why don't you go out? I've been thinking about this too." He suddenly smiled, and asked Xin Tieshi, "Don't you think it's strange, why I don't have to work, and I seem to live better than them?" This is indeed a strange question, and Xin Tieshi also wanted to ask it! The young man said indifferently: "Every one of them gave me one-tenth of their hard work, and let me get something for nothing, because they believed that I could come up with the answer to get out!" Xin Tieshi frowned. He didn't understand what was so special about this answer.Although the mountains are covered by ice and snow, it is difficult to go out, but with the martial arts of these people, when the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, when the ice melts and the snow melts, they should be able to cross the layers of mountains. Could it be that this snow mountain cannot be surpassed by humans? The young man with a green face saw through his heart, and said lightly, "Do you want to know the answer?" Of course Xin Tieshi wanted to, because he had to go out. Only by crossing this mountain can he return to Mount Jiuhua and look for Ruohua and Jiang Yulou. That was his destiny, the destiny he was constantly looking for.He cannot escape, nor can he forget. He nodded.The young man with a green face said: "Over the past ten years, only one person has been able to freely enter and exit this mountain. I have been thinking hard about the answer to get out of the mountain, and I was also inspired by this person." To be able to freely enter and exit the mountain? Xin Tieshi has a long spirit. The young man with a green face said lightly: "Do you want to see him?" Xin Tieshi nodded hurriedly.He did want to see it!No matter what price he paid, he asked this person to take him out, and he must return to Mount Jiuhua! The blue-faced boy stretched out his finger and pointed behind Xin Tieshi. Xin Tieshi hurriedly turned his head. He never thought that he would meet this person! Xie Yue, owner of the Hoan Kiem Villa. As light as a distant mountain, Xie Yue in a green shirt. Could it be that Xie Yue is the one who can freely enter and leave this mountain?How could Xie Yue appear here? Behind Xie Yue, there is a person standing quietly, he is like a high mountain, towering and unreachable, and he is like the sky, covering everyone.His eyes were like fire, dancing like he wanted to burn everything. Xin Tieshi recognized it immediately, this person was the leader of the Demon Cult that everyone on Mount Jiuhua feared! Xin Tieshi was even more surprised, how could Xie Yue be with the leader of the Demon Cult? Could it be... Xie Yue seemed to know what he was thinking, and said lightly: "You are right, I am a member of the Devil's Cult." He pointed casually, and said: "These people you see are all members of the Devil's Cult .” Xin Tieshi was so surprised that he couldn't help but said, "You..." He couldn't figure it out, and no one could figure it out. The owner of the Huanjian Villa is a first-rate figure in the world, and his prestige and status are no less than that of any sect leader. People in the Jianghu, whoever mentioned Xie Yue, didn't they respect him in awe? How can such a person who is as indifferent as a distant mountain be a member of the Devil's Cult? Xie Yue said lightly: "I am not only a member of the Demon Cult, but also the real leader of the Demon Cult!" Xin Tieshi was shocked, how could Xie Yue be the leader of the Demon Cult? What about the one next to him?Could it be that the rumors in the world are all wrong? Xie Yue smiled, and said: "Yun Jingtian is indeed the leader of the Demon Cult, but in order to challenge Yu Changkong, he insisted on cultivating the Heavenly Demon Kung Fu, and when he was about to break the sky, he lost his mind and lost his mind. I realized that I was very likely to fail, so I passed the position of leader to me. Now..." He looked at Yun Jingtian with a trace of sadness in his eyes: "Now his brain is crippled, and he only knows to obey my orders. Although his martial arts have reached the level of a demon, he is undoubtedly a walking dead." He sighed deeply. One sound. Xin Tieshi has no views of good and evil in his heart, otherwise he would not have such a deep relationship with Jiang Yulou.But the righteous way and the demon sect have been fighting for decades, and he is a disciple of old man Jiuhua. Deep down in his heart, he always regards the demon sect as an evil way. What's more, thousands of people in the world can join the Devil's Cult, only Xie Yue can't! Because Xie Yue is the core of the Righteous Way, one of the seven leaders who know all the secrets of the Righteous Way. ——If Xie Yue joins the Devil's Cult, the righteous path will be overthrown soon. ——Is the "Detailed Record of the Righteous Path" lost in the Jiuhua Secret Cave the one stolen by Xie Yue?He was also there at the time, so there must be a chance to steal the book! Xin Tieshi gave Xie Yue a cold look, and said angrily: "Master Xie, everyone respects you as a hero in the world, but I never thought you would be seduced by the devil, you..." With a swish, the Qingyang sword came out of its sheath, and Xin Tieshi said loudly: "Xin knows that he has gone deep into the tiger's den, so he has to fight his life to the end. Thank you, Master, please!" He always referred to Xie Yue as "Master Xie Zhuang" instead of "Master Xie", just hoping that he would still have a sliver of repentance and change his past. Unexpectedly, Xie Yue smiled lightly, without looking at the long sword in his hand, and said: "Twenty years ago, like you, I knew the difference between the orthodox demon sect and swore to be incompatible with the demon sect. My blood is stronger than yours." It’s even hotter, and they even entered here alone with a single sword. But when I saw their situation, I put down the long sword in my hand. Did you know that this is the main altar of the Devil’s Cult?” Xin Tieshi's heart was shocked, is this the West Kunlun Mountain? Legend has it that there is a great light on West Kunlun Mountain, which is a holy mountain in the west, but it is occupied by demon sects, and people from the Central Plains seldom set foot there.The demon sect is cruel and vicious, entrenched on the mountain, doing all kinds of evil, this is what Xin Tieshi has been used to since he was a child. But he never expected that the real West Kunlun Mountains would be so desolate and barren. Xie Yue said lightly: "You know, there are only seven hundred and fifty-two people left in the Demon Cult." Xin Tieshi was shocked again. There are so many masters on the West Kunlun Mountains, and there are so many people, even if the righteous way of the martial arts comes out, it may not be able to win. Therefore, for many years, the righteous way of the martial arts and the demon sect have been fighting constantly, but they have never dared to attack the root of the demon sect The important place is the West Kunlun Mountains. But in this mountain, there are only seven hundred and fifty people! There are no fewer than ten factions with more than a thousand people in the rivers and lakes.Wudang, Shaolin and other sects have more than 3,000 disciples. But the Demon Sect, which frightened people in the martial arts world, only had 752 people. Although Xin Tieshi had never seen it, he wanted to see it. Among the seven hundred and fifty two people, more than half were old, weak, sick and disabled, and the rest were women, young and middle-aged, and there were less than two hundred people. These two hundred people cut off eagles, cracked rocks, felled wood, and carried water here every day. Their martial arts are only for food and warmth.They are no longer fighting to kill, but just to survive. Why don't they go out? Xie Yue sighed softly: "Do you still remember the "Detailed Records of Zhengdao"? The old man Jiuhua said it well. It records the power accumulated by Zhengdao over the past few decades, which is almost the strongest weapon of Zhengdao. But these weapons , but was placed around the West Kunlun Mountains, to ensure that the people of the Demon Cult will never step out of the West Kunlun Mountains!" He smiled and said: "They are afraid that if the Devil Sect comes out of the mountain, the entire martial arts forest will be destroyed. Therefore, they would rather trap us all to death in this mountain, and they will never give us the slightest way to survive!" Xie Yue raised his eyes and shot out: "Aren't we human?" He stretched out his hand, pointing at those who were concentrating on working hard, pointing at the old woman who was struggling to lift water, almost fell down but was still struggling: "Aren't these people human? Don't they deserve to die?" Xin Tieshi's heart was shocked again! Xie Yue stared at him closely, the light in his eyes gradually shrinking. "So, I will stay. I don't want to be the owner of the Hoan Kiem Villa anymore. I want to walk out of this mountain with them!" "I believe that there is no demon religion in this world, only suffering people." "No one is born to suffer, absolutely no one!" Xin Tieshi was speechless. He suddenly understood Xie Yue a little bit, because he didn't have the distinction between the righteous way and the demon religion in his heart. Xie Yue said: "Although I have been the leader of the Demon Cult all these years, I have never revealed the secrets of the righteous way. I believe that one day, the Demon Cult will be able to walk out of this mountain, not for revenge or killing, but for the sake of not letting go suffer." He looked up at the snow-covered mountain, and slowly said: "I just hope that no one will be trapped in this mountain again, no matter if he is the righteous way or the Demon Cult." Xin Tieshi was moved. What kind of heart is that?What kind of mercy is that? Will there be such a day? Can the Righteous Demon Sect no longer fight and kill, and no one will be forced into the West Kunlun Mountains and suffer forever? Xie Yue said: "I don't want you to agree with me, I just hope you can see their suffering." He cast his eyes on a group of hard-working teenagers with childish faces: "Although they are members of the Demon Cult, , but only children." The word "child" made Xin Tieshi's heart tingle a little.Yes, they are just children, and their faces are not cruel or stern. Many of them have never even seen the face of a righteous person, let alone killing. How could they deserve to die and suffer? Xie Yue said: "Let's go, I'll take you to see something, something that will definitely surprise you!" His face was extremely solemn, what could make Xie Yue value so much? Behind the col was a small village. When they saw someone coming, many people looked away, with surprised expressions on their faces. It was obvious that no one had come here for a long time. Xie Yue's smile was a bit sad: "Do you believe it? This is the Devil's Cult General Altar!" Xin Tieshi was shocked again. The clothes these people were wearing were extremely shabby, their faces were disheveled, and the surrounding houses were shabby, even worse than the mountain villages in the Central Plains. This is actually the headquarters of the Devil's Cult! Compared with the grandeur of Shaolin Temple and the splendor of Wudang Sect, what we have here is just poor—isn't it said that the Demon Cult is extremely domineering?What is this domineering? Xin Tieshi was speechless! He followed behind Xie Yue, not even daring to look at those people.He turned out to be an enemy of these people! They walked into the largest thatched hut in the village, which was the only place that could be called solemn in the village. The house was huge, but the inside was extremely simple, with only thirteen chairs spread out in two rows.In the center of the hall, hung a huge block of ice, inside the ice were two corpses. Xin Tieshi just glanced at it, and was shocked! He has seen each of these two corpses, one is in the coffin of Jiuhua Lingtang, and the other is in Yaotao's room. The eyebrows and eyebrows of the two corpses are very similar, and even the clothes are exactly the same. Could it be that there are two baby peaches? Xin Tieshi frowned tightly.He suddenly understood, he saw Yaotao in the coffin, why would he see her again in her room! But how can there be two baby peaches?
