Chapter 26 Chapter Twenty-Five

Lord Taiyi laughed and said: "Of course the old man wants to leave, but he wants to go with the leader of the dragon gang and this little brother, don't you object?" While speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed to Zhao Ziyuan who was standing beside Long Huatian. The man in black said angrily: "Noble Taiyi, I'm being polite to you because of my old friendship. Don't you be so crazy that you forget who this old man is?" Da Yijue said: "I haven't forgotten who Moyunshou and Ghost Ax are. It's just that Moyunshou and Ghost Ax are combined. Even with the help of others, I can't beat the Fourth Lord of Lingwu!"

The man in black was taken aback and said: "Did you say the four nobles?" Da Yijue said: "good" Heimieren lowered his voice and said: "Your three old companions are here? Where are they—where are they?" Taiyi Jue said: "They are waiting for the old man outside the woods." There was a strange look in the eyes of the man in black, and suddenly he laughed loudly and said: "Lord Taiyi, you are born out of nothing again. It is rare for the four masters of Lingwu to meet for the first time in a lifetime. How could it be such a coincidence today..."

Before he could finish his words, he suddenly heard a clear and clear sound of knocking bamboo from a distance. The sound of knocking bamboo was knocked four times in a row, stopped for a while, and then knocked four times again! Bamboo sounds are well-organized and very regular. Tai Yijue smiled and said: "Of course the old man's words can be created out of nothing, so could it be possible to create something out of nothing with this sign of the gathering of the four spirit martial masters?" The man in black looked ashen and was speechless for a while. Taiyi Jue waved his hand at Long Huatian, and the three walked in file. The man in black watched helplessly as the figures of the three faded away, but there was nothing he could do.

Taiyijue and the others went out of the forest, suddenly there were figures flashing in succession, three immature boys walked out in a row, all of them were handsome and cute. At the first place, a boy who hangs down the house smiled and said: "Grandpa, how are the kids doing with the three bamboo tubes? Can you let it go?" As they spoke, the three boys looked at each other and smiled, and raised the bamboo tubes in their hands. Zhao Ziyuan was greatly astonished, secretly thinking that Lord Taiyi actually used three boys to knock bamboos at the same time outside the dense forest, it is ridiculous that the man in black would be fooled even though his thoughts are meticulous.

Taiyi Jue nodded and said: "It's a great knock. You go back to the hut and wait for me. The old man will arrive later." The three boys Jishou responded and disappeared into the vast night. Taiyi Jue turned around and smiled: "The three of them are the old man's janitor boy. This time I followed the old man on a trip, and I don't think it will come in handy today..." Before he finished speaking, his face suddenly changed, and he said in a low voice: "That Mo Yunshou is really very cunning, the old man's plan can only lie to him for a while, you two go away, the old man stays here to deal with him." Zhao Ziyuan said in a nasty voice: "Old man, you—" Tai Yijue interrupted road:

"Although there are many people on the other side, if the old man decides to leave, no one in the world will be able to hold me back—" Long Huatian said: "Extremely extreme, no one in the world can stop Da Yijue, and the beggar is light and slippery on the soles of his feet, and there are probably few people who can catch up to him. Only you are a burden, little brother. It is better to go if you don't hurry up." when?" Zhao Ziyuan was speechless, thinking that the words of Da Yijue and Bu Dai Gang leader were not unreasonable at the beginning, so he bowed to the ground and said:

"The two seniors are very kind, and Rong Xiaoke will repay it in the future." Long Huatian said impatiently: "Don't want mother-in-law, go! Go!" Zhao Ziyuan was no longer stagnant, he swung himself up, and suddenly he was ten feet away, when suddenly the gloomy voice of the man in black came from far away in his ears: "Lord Taiyi, the old man was almost fooled by you, mile... ..." The voice of Monk Hua said: "Why is that kid missing?" Long Huatian's voice: "It's gone a long time ago, and you can't catch up with him even if you try to chase him, ha! Ha!"

Zhao Ziyuan unfolded his lightness kung fu and continued to move forward, the voice behind him gradually became weaker, and finally became inaudible... At this time, the waning moon had fallen to the west, and the night was coming to an end. Zhao Ziyuan walked on the road, looking at the first dawn in the east, his face unconsciously showed a kind of free and easy look, but only for a while, his brows darkened again Lock, no one knows what he is thinking under his expression that changes rapidly? Looking at the curling smoke rising from mid-air in front of him, he murmured to himself: "Not far ahead, there is about a village and town, why don't I go into the town and find an inn to treat my hunger..."

Thinking of this, he quickened his pace, and soon he came to Yiji Town. Zhao Ziyuan just stepped into the street of the town, and two big men walked towards him. Those two burly men were dressed in fast clothes, they were from the martial arts at first glance, Zhao Ziyuan glanced at them, but felt that they were very strange, so he didn't pay attention.But I heard the two people walking and talking all the way: "Brother, we went down the mountain to experience this time, and we didn't want to encounter this unforeseen disaster. How will we explain to our master when we go back?"

The young man on the left sighed and said: "What do you think, brother? At this moment, I have no idea at all." The older man on the left said: "To be honest, you are not inferior to me in the chaos of your brother. Don't say that the death of the second brother Zhong is unknown. In the past few days, the bizarre encounters of the three of us brothers and sisters, even if you tell them, who would dare to believe it? What's more--" " He paused and continued: "What's more, the old devil who appeared last, Zhen Dingyuan, repeatedly warned us not to talk about that part of the story after we returned to Kongtong. The mysterious woman in the van is inseparable."

Zhao Ziyuan had a thought, and thought to himself: "Eight vicious demons in green clothes? Could it be that the seven people were killed by the bag leader outside the tent tonight? The leader Long said that Monk Hua borrowed eight of his men and lost one of them when he was doing business in the morning. That's right." The two hurried past, Zhao Ziyuan couldn't help but turned around and quietly followed behind, he saw the two of them walking towards the Xiaowai path, without even noticing that there was someone behind them. Just listen to the big man on the right say: "Both caravans are exactly the same, I was also confused." The young man said: "You mean the two caravans where the holy lady of Kagawa and the pale mysterious woman named Nvshao sat? Why did the Nvshao leave a poisonous handkerchief in order to poison the three of us? Sneaking into her face for us? It doesn't make sense." The big man said: "There are many things that don't make sense. The swordsman who claimed to be Sima Daoyuan and relieved us, do you think he is really Sima Daoyuan?" The young man looked up at the big man, and said calmly: "Brother, I know you also suspect that he is the long-lost professional swordsman Xie Jinyin. Just from the aura of his sword, I thought it was him." The big man thought about it and said: "It is rumored that Xie Jinyin was killed by Wu Xiaoqiu and Zhen Dingyuan as early as 20 years ago. How could he appear here? Could it be that he really has the ability to revive his soul?" The young man shook his head and said: "It's strange, I always have a feeling in my heart that what Xie Jinyin did is indeed not enough to atone for a hundred deaths, but Wu Xiaoqiu and Zhen Dingyuan joined forces to plot against others, it is too dishonorable and disgraceful..." The big man waved his hand suddenly to stop him from continuing, and turned around quickly, it was only at this moment that he realized Zhao Ziyuan who was following behind. He glared at Zhao Ziyuan angrily, raised his backhand, pulled out the long sword around his waist, and shouted loudly at Zhao Ziyuan from a distance: "Come on—" Zhao Ziyuan was taken aback for a moment, and said, "What do you mean, brother?" The big man said sharply: "My two senior brothers are Kongtong Lin Jingmai and Mei Shanglin. You want to take our lives, so you finally found the right person. Come on—" Zhao Ziyuan nana said: "There may be a misunderstanding here, Zhao..." The young Mei Shanglin opened his eyes wide and angry, and interrupted: "You still don't do it? You are the fourth batch of people who want to kill us since the third year. Let me ask you, how long have you been following us?" Just as Zhao Ziyuan was about to answer, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he said quickly: "It's not me who wants to kill the two of you, but behind your back—" Mei Shanglin showed confusion, and Zhao Ziyuan shouted again: "Watch your back—" Mei Shanglin turned around like a whirlwind, he still hadn't figured out what was going on, when suddenly he felt a figure on the treetop on the left flash, and a person rushed towards him with his palm out! Lin Jingmai, who was beside him, had red eyes and said sharply: "Withdraw your palm!" Concerned about the safety of his junior brother from the bottom of his heart, he swung his palm and slashed. As soon as the palm wind came out, the man paused for a moment, and Mei Shanglin took the opportunity to turn around and leaped far away. The man fell to the ground, but he was a young man in his prime, with a handsome face, quite dignified, but with a bit of cunning. The boy pointed at Lin, and the Mei brothers said: "You two won't live long!" Lin Jingmai raised his thick eyebrows and said: "Are you with those eight ghosts and snake spirits the night before yesterday?" The boy was taken aback, and said: "Who are you going with? I tell you, just now, you were talking nonsense and talking about your family's right and wrong. Based on this, you will die!" Mei Shanglin settled down and asked: "Who is the commander?" The boy said in a deep voice: "Master Wu Xiaoqiu, you just mentioned his old man's name." Hehe sneered a few times, approached Mei Shanglin with big strides, waved his palm, the power of the palm surged from all directions and slapped, the moves were not special, extremely ruthless and mysterious, and the skill was also profound and extraordinary. Mei Shanglin was terrified, thinking to himself that in the past twenty years, Wu Xiaoqiu's reputation has flourished, and even his apprentice's martial arts are so strong. Based on this, there are very few people in the world who can rival Wu Xiaoqiu. He was about to take out his weapon to fight back, when suddenly a cold voice sounded; "Xie Chaoxing, stop!" Xie Chaoxing abruptly stopped his gestures, followed his reputation, and found that the speaker was the ragged, unremarkable young man he had seen earlier.He smiled contemptuously and said, "Boy, how do you know my name?" Zhao Ziyuan naturally couldn't tell what he saw and heard that day when he was hiding in the thatched hut on the barren mountain, so he deliberately sneered a few times and ignored it accordingly. Xie Chaoxing said: "Don't you bother to answer? I dare to live impatiently." Zhao Ziyuan just sneered blindly, without saying a word. Relying on the prestige of his teacher, Xie Chaoxing is used to bossing him around, how many times has he ever been so neglected by others?Furiously said: "Good boy, you must have eaten the guts of a leopard. If the young master doesn't kill you today, it will be hard to get rid of the hatred in your heart, and you will die quickly by name—" Although he asked the other party to report his name, he couldn't wait for an answer, he slammed himself, stretched his chest with one palm, and slashed at Zhao Ziyuan like lightning. But seeing that his palms are not only extremely fast, but also blocking, chopping and smashing with no direction, Zhao Ziyuan immediately sealed the frame with his palms, before the palms of both sides could be combined, he made a wrong step and changed directions. Xie Chaoxing didn't allow the other party to take a breather, both palms flew in the air, then turned around, his right palm struck out sharply, with the tendency of driving straight in. It was too late, it was too soon, Xie Chaoxing slashed out with a palm, a figure flashed in midair, Xie Chaoxing's wrist tightened, it turned out to be wrapped by a whip thread, he felt a sudden pain in his heart, the horse gait floated, and turned to the left Falling four or five steps away, nearly falling to the ground—— Fang wanted to open his mouth to curse, but when his eyes met, he swallowed the words abruptly. I saw a slender woman in a gorgeous dress standing five steps away! That beautifully dressed woman has reached the prime of life, although she is not a national beauty, she has a graceful and noble temperament, but her face is as cold as ice, making one feel hard to get close to at first glance. Xie Chao Zhou Zhou Ai Ai said: "Miss Wu, you...why do you want to stop me from making a move?..." The woman in Chinese clothes is Wu Bingxin, said coldly. "You let these people go, including Zhao Ziyuan." Xie Chaoxing seemed taken aback, and blurted out: "Zhao Ziyuan? Is he Zhao Ziyuan who was sent by the girl to Taizhaobao as an undercover agent?" As soon as the words came out, Fang Shi woke up and realized that he shouldn't tell the undercover story in front of outsiders. He turned around and looked at Wu Bingxin, and he was relieved to see that she didn't express any anger. But he immediately filled with jealousy, and he did not hide it, revealing it beyond his appearance. As soon as Wu Bingxin appeared, Kongtong, Linmei and Linmei knew that their relationship would be difficult to please, so they hurriedly confessed a few words on the occasion and left together. Only Zhao Ziyuan stood still, Xie Chaoxing said sharply: "I spared your life, but you didn't leave?" Zhao Ziyuan heard his hostile words, and also met his hostile eyes. He didn't know why the other party's face became so ugly, and he was immediately puzzled. Wu Bingxin on the side said coldly: "Ah Xing, you are the one who is going to leave, you stay aside for now, I want to have a few words with him." Xie Chaoxing hesitated, and walked away reluctantly. Before leaving, Zhao Ziyuan caught a glimpse of the crazy jealousy in his eyes, and his chest trembled for no reason. After Xie Chaoxing walked away, Wu Bingxin looked Zhao Ziyuan up and down for a moment, her cherry lips moved, and her tender body suddenly fell into Zhao Ziyuan's arms. Zhao Ziyuan couldn't help being astonished when Wu Bingxin showed his son-daughter tenderness. He was at a loss for a while, but after a long while, he finally lowered his head and kissed her cherry lips. For the two of them, it was an ecstasy kiss that was forgotten by both of us. Wu Bingxin showed her true feelings, and her two jade arms tightly hugged Zhao Ziyuan's body, completely letting the emotions boil and unrestrained. The rare warmth melted into her enthusiasm. Wu Bingxin said in a dreamlike voice: "Ziyuan, Ziyuan... I've been very anxious these days, I never thought you would be safe and sound..." Zhao Ziyuan was surprised and said: "What are you worried about?" Wu Bing shoved Zhao Ziyuan away, raised his jade hand, and slapped him twice. Two deep red fingerprints appeared on Zhao Ziyuan's cheeks. Zhao Ziyuan has long been used to the hot and cold personality of the other party, so he was not surprised by Wu Bingxin's sudden change of face, but just kept silent. Wu Bingxin's beautiful eyes shot out an angry light, and said: "After you sneaked into the Jokhang Fort, you didn't come to the Liuxiangyuan to find me, which made me worry about you for a while. I thought you had been killed, and you asked me why I was anxious? You——you wanted to be right away? Are you mad at me?" An indescribable feeling stirred up in Zhao Ziyuan's heart, and he said awkwardly: "Girl... Miss, calm down, I just don't have such intentions." Wu Bingxin said coldly: "You used to feel annoyed when you saw me, are you still like this now?" Zhao Ziyuan said: "It's nothing, the girl is overthinking." Wu Bingxin looked slightly foggy, and said in a low voice: "In the past, I tortured and insulted you in every possible way. That was not my intention. Every time I hit you with a whip, my heart also felt cramped. I can't explain the reason for the contradiction. You can save... save me. ?..." Zhao Ziyuan didn't know how to answer, so he hummed. Seeing that he was silent, Wu Bingxin suddenly said angrily: "You are silent, don't you hold a grudge against me?" Zhao Ziyuan hurriedly said: "Girl's concern, it's too late to be grateful, so there's no reason to hold grudges." Wu Bingxin snorted and said: "If you don't mean what you say, you'll get it." She remembered something and replied: "Since you left the Liuxiangyuan, Li Ji of the East Chamber has missed you very much, and always mentioned your name in the chat, hum, I can't see that you are still born with a peach blossom, and there are women everywhere for you Infatuated and drunk, where is that bitch Zhen Lingqing? I heard that she and you walked side by side on the Shaanxi-Gansu Road recently, is there such a thing?" When Wu Bingxin mentioned the word Zhen Lingqing, he couldn't help but feel jealous, his face was full of jealousy and murderous intent, and Sen Han's eyes never relaxed, staring at Zhao Ziyuan. Zhao Ziyuan secretly said: "It's very well-informed news, but he knows that if he admits it, he will cause endless troubles, so he can only withdraw a lie."He took a deep breath and said slowly: "Where did this news come from? You just left Taizhao Castle with the disabled man in the green house in the water. Didn't the girl hear about it?" Now I will tell you exactly what happened before and after leaving Taizhao Fort, and just omit the part where Zhen Lingqing came to meet him, and use his words to stammer the past. Before Wu Bingxin could continue to question, Xie Chaoxing had already walked back from the bamboo stalks in the distance, glared at Zhao Ziyuan angrily, and said to Wu Bingxin: "Miss Wu, we should go back to the Liuxiangyuan, your father is still waiting for news from us in the courtyard." Wu Bingxin looked at Zhao Ziyuan and said in a low voice: "The matter of measuring pearls and hiring beauties is a thing of the past, and I will not force you to do anything from now on. Come to Liuxiangyuan when you have time, and I will treat you as a distinguished guest..." She hesitated to speak, and finally turned around and left with Xie Chaoxing. Zhao Ziyuan watched her back go far away, feeling very complicated in his heart. He never expected that this female devil, who used to be the most troublesome and difficult to deal with, would abandon her usual dignity and self-restraint when meeting her now, and reveal her childishness to himself. Emotions, thinking of the lingering kiss just now, it really feels like being in a dream. After a while, he patted the dust off his body and continued on the road in a daze. He walked to the evening in one breath, and then found a hotel to have a meal with top guns, so as to refresh his energy, and then set off again the next day. Walking out of the inn, looking at the pedestrians rushing to and fro in the market, Zhao Ziyuan thought: "The strange man from Mobei is probably going to Wudang Mountain to get the last broken sword. Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I might as well go to Wudang. Maybe I just met Di Yifei by chance." Thinking of this, he bought a horse and headed south. Five days later, Zhao Ziyuan had arrived at the foot of Wudang Mountain. As the sun sets over the western mountains and the dusk gradually shrouds, Wudang Mountain looks even more gloomy. Zhao Ziyuan stopped and took a look at the surrounding scenery, adding a feeling of loneliness in his heart. At this moment, it was completely dark. He was gloomy, and walked towards the entrance of the mountain road. After a while, he had walked out of the mountainside. The cold autumn wind shook the trees all around, rustling. Suddenly a slight groan came from the wind to Zhao Ziyuan's ears, his heart was shocked, and he hurried forward, only to see a disheveled man lying crookedly in the middle of the mountain road! Through the dim moonlight, one can see that the man has thick eyebrows and big eyes, broad shoulders and a broad body, and a very strong physique. He is clearly a warrior, but his spirit is like gossamer, and his complexion is as white as gold paper. The sound of groans came from this mouth. Zhao Ziyuan saw the man's face clearly, and exclaimed: "Isn't this the boss Hei Yanli Xiangye Li? How did he become like this?" That man was indeed Li Xiangye, the only surviving boss of the Three Heiyan Monsters. He tried his best to roll his eyes, moved his lips, and said in a low voice, "You...Young...youth named Zhao...you came at the right...time..." Beads of sweat rolled down Li Xiangye's cheeks, his facial features were distorted, showing pain, and his clothes on his chest were broken into pieces, revealing his bloody skin.Zhao Ziyuan said: "Who hurt you like this?" Li Xiangye continued intermittently: "I...I have found...the murderer who...killed the second brother Bu and the third brother Zhan...and the person who set fire to the ghost town...the same...the same person..." His whole body seemed to be exhausted, he couldn't help panting, and his speech seemed slurred. At this moment, there was a sudden sound of "嗤", a cold light came through the air, Zhao Ziyuan waved his sleeve, the cold light was deflected by the force of his palm, and he stuck it on a big tree behind him for a closer look Underneath, there was a branch as thick as a finger, the tip was more than half inserted into the trunk of the tree, and there was a piece of white plain paper tied to the end—— Seeing this, Zhao Ziyuan couldn't help gasping for breath, the branch was neither metal nor iron, it would be very difficult for an ordinary person to shake him several feet away with his hand, but in the dark the man unexpectedly broke Kong inserted a branch into the trunk, this kind of skill is too mysterious. Zhao Ziyuan hesitated for a moment, then Fang Shi moved to the side of the tree, stretched out his hand and pulled out the branch, the white paper tied at the end fluttered in the wind. Without hesitation, he picked up the white paper with his index and middle fingers, and saw a few words written crookedly on the paper: "If you see the words, you can write your last words on this note." There is still a large blank space left on the paper, which is actually left for the person holding this paper to write the last words! Zhao Ziyuan was stunned for a while, and then he felt that something was wrong, and he heard Li Xiangye shouting from behind: "Quickly throw away the white paper...open...the paper is stained...very poisonous...hehe..." Suddenly there was another muffled groan, Zhao Ziyuan turned around quickly, Li Xiangye was already spouting blood, and lay straight on the ground! In the darkness, a black shadow flashed in front of Zhao Ziyuan's eyes, his body was so sick that there was no room for the slightest guess, Zhao Ziyuan didn't even think about it, he just pushed out with a palm, and with a sound of "哗啦", a small tree broke in response to his palm. , Zhao Ziyuan realized that the man had gone far away. He fixed his eyes and saw that there was already a black palm print on Li Xiangye's chest, and his breath was like gossamer, it was clear that he would not survive. Li Xiangye struggled and said: "Ghost Town...Desolate Garden...Ghost Town...Desolate Garden..." Zhao Ziyuan said: "What did you say? What did you say?" Li Xiangye opened his lips, but no sound came out. He opened his eyes and died. At this moment, Zhao Ziyuan remembered that just now Li Xiangye had warned that the paper was highly poisonous, and his own fingers had already touched the white paper, no doubt, he would not survive! Zhao Ziyuan thought bitterly: "The murderer must have poisoned Li Xiangye first, and then he was afraid that he would not die, so he rushed to give him another palm. When I passed by here, Wu Xuanxu wanted to kill him at the same time with the plain paper tainted with poison. I solved it with such ruthless intentions that it really makes people shudder." So he hurriedly exercised his energy and adjusted his breath to check whether there was any discomfort after poisoning in his body? True Qi circulated through the meridians in the body for fifteen weeks, up to the top and down through the limbs. The strange thing is, there was still no sign of poisoning. Zhao Ziyuan was confused and thought to himself: "Strange, since that piece of plain paper is highly poisonous, after my finger touches it, I should immediately fall to the ground and die. How can it be safe and sound now?" He couldn't figure it out, since he had never been poisoned, he didn't bother to think about it. Looking at Li Xiangye's body, Zhao Ziyuan said silently: "The three black rock monsters have all died so far. The second fortune teller and the third Zhannong died for no apparent reason in the ancient house of Huangyuan in the ghost town. I don't want the boss Li Xiangye to end up like this." Zhao Ziyuan pondered for a moment, then suddenly remembered something, his heart trembled violently—— He muttered to himself: "At the invitation of God of Calamity and Chou, most of the people who participated in obstructing professional swordsmen at the mansion of Mai Cross Gun, died suddenly one after another. God is old and ugly, now Li Xiangye, the boss of Heiyan, died on Wudang Mountain, leaving only two survivors of the Beggar Clan, the Flying Ax God, and the Venerable Chaotian. , is there any conspiracy in this?" Thinking of this, it is almost certain that this series of conspiracy exists, but he can't figure it out for a while. While thinking about it, a cold voice suddenly came from behind: "Who dares to kill people on Wudang Mountain?" There was a strong wind behind him, Zhao Ziyuan turned around, and a Taoist walked slowly along a path of fallen leaves, but the speed was astonishingly fast, and soon came to Zhao Ziyuan. Zhao Ziyuan cupped his fists and saluted: "Is the Taoist priest from Wudang Taoist Temple?" The Taoist glanced over Li Xiangye's body, and said coldly: "Friend Daoist, you have such a vicious method!" Zhao Ziyuan looked at the Taoist priest intently, and saw that the Taoist priest was about fifty years old, with a high nose and wide mouth, a tall figure, wearing a black Taoist robe, strangely, his complexion was very fair, and his skin was tanned by the sun. The colors don't quite match. The Taoist priest in the black robe approached Zhao Ziyuan again, and between his steps, he naturally revealed a mighty demeanor. Zhao Ziyuan knew in his heart that this is what should happen when his skill has reached a certain level. He secretly planned in his heart, Wudang Daoist Who in the world bears such power? The Taoist priest in Xuanpao opened his eyes and emitted a light like lightning. He stared at Zhao Ziyuan without letting go. He lowered his voice and said word by word: "Fellow Daoist is not only vicious, but also brave enough to go to Wudang Mountain to kill people. It's obvious that I didn't take our faction seriously." Seeing that the other party was indiscriminate, Zhao Ziyuan insisted that he killed the man as soon as he came up, a burst of anger almost burst out in his chest. He managed to hold his breath, and said slowly: "Master Daoist, there is a misunderstanding here..."
