Chapter 267 Chapter 1 Shocking Secret

Xu Ziling stared at Cao Yinglong without saying a word, and after a long while, he said: "Cao Yinglong, you have always frightened Hubei with your ruthlessness and fearlessness of death, but you suddenly become so greedy for life and fear of death, you are obviously deceitful, I will not be fooled." Cao Yinglong showed a bit of bitterness and breathlessness, and said: "No wonder Brother Xu has such an idea. Someone even told me earlier that Cao Yinglong would negotiate terms with others in order to survive. I am the first person who doesn't believe it, alas! Can Brother Xu give up for now?" Say something to your subordinates?" Xu Ziling hesitated for a moment, and finally ordered his subordinates to disperse to a distance, but still adopted the momentum of encirclement to prevent Cao Yinglong from escaping.He jumped off his horse and came to Cao Yinglong.

Under his sharp feeling, the other party did not use Qi Yungong to restore the severely damaged true essence. The bandit chieftain who had been rampant for a while seemed to have aged more than ten years suddenly, showing exhausted mental and physical fatigue, and said with a wry smile: "Just now, when I saw brother Xu piercing Jianding's vest with a long stick, I gave birth to brother Xu, a man who can never be hit. Feeling the frustration of the defeated enemy, tens of thousands of thoughts flashed through my heart in an instant, like waking up from a nightmare suddenly, feeling that my hands were bloody and sinful, and then all thoughts were lost, life would be better than death."

Xu Ziling sneered coldly: "If life is really worse than death, you wouldn't ask someone Xu for survival!" Cao Yinglong nodded and said: "No wonder Brother Xu was so mocking. The truth is that in that situation, I suddenly had an impulse and desire that had been suppressed for more than 20 years. I wanted to fulfill a wish. Please let Brother Xu let me go. If Brother Xu is afraid of being cheated, I will automatically dissipate the power of nine successes. Only a little life-saving and self-defense are left, then Brother Xu will have no worries and can rescue Shi Qingxuan in time. If Brother Xu still thinks Impossible, please take my life immediately, I will never fight back."

It was as if Cao Yinglong had become another person, his tone revealed a sense of sincerity from the bottom of his heart, matching his content, making it impossible for anyone to doubt his sincerity. Xu Ziling was extremely contradictory in his heart. In terms of what he did, even if Cao Yinglong died 10,000 times, it would not be enough to atone for his crimes.And Xu Ziling made up his mind early on, vowing to eradicate this big thief chieftain.But for Shi Qingxuan.Should he make the deal? Cao Yinglong said calmly: "If brother Xu thinks it's not worth it after hearing it, or if he finds that what I said is not true, he can take my life at any time. I will neither resist nor complain."

Xu Ziling asked in surprise, "Is Master Cao really not afraid that I will take your life no matter what you say is true or not?" Cao Yinglong smiled wryly and said: "Then let me assume that I misjudged the person before I died, so I died without complaint." Shi Qingxuan floated in the lake of Xu Ziling's heart, suspicious and seemingly real, like a jade face that could never see its full appearance, filled with unspeakable feelings, nodded and said: "Okay! Xu is all ears." Cao Yinglong pondered for a while, then lowered his voice and said: "If I don't tell the whole story in detail, it will be difficult for Brother Xu to trust me. Fortunately, there is still an hour before dawn, and we have enough time. Xu Brother, have you ever heard of the two sects and six ways of the Demon Sect?"

Xu Ziling understood the meaning of his words, because if Cao Yinglong really destroyed 90% of his martial arts, he had to escape from the dangerous situation far away before dawn, and then hide his name to avoid the pursuit of all enemies who have enmity with him. At least the people from Pegasus Ranch would not let him go, and Xu Ziling couldn't stop him either. Xu Ziling said: "I've only heard of the Eight Masters of Evil Dao, but I've never heard of the Two Schools and Six Ways. The Yingui School should be one of the two schools, right?" Cao Yinglong nodded and said: "The Yingui sect is regarded as the head of the Demon Sect because of its possession of the treasure book "Tianmo Secret" and "Cihang Sword Code", which are respectively the supreme classics of evil and righteousness. The former developed There are two sects and six paths, and the latter are Cijing Hangzhai and Jingnian Temple."

Xu Ziling asked in astonishment, "Is Master Cao a member of the Demon Sect?" Cao Yinglong smiled wryly and said: "If you are not a member of the Demon Sect, how can you have anything to do with Yang Xuyan?" Seeing a strange color flashing across Xu Ziling's face, he hurriedly said: "Although I am in the demon sect, I hate the master's sect deeply in my heart, because after I became an adult, by chance, I found out that the master accepted me in the past. When I was an apprentice, I actually murdered my parents, brothers and sisters, calling it "cutting common fate", which filled my heart with resentment, but I was powerless to resist, so I could only vent my hatred elsewhere, and I only woke up today Come here, the past is like a nightmare."

Xu Ziling felt a little sympathy for him for the first time, and asked, "Who is Lingshi?" Cao Yinglong's eyes shot out flames of hatred, and he said in a deep voice, "He is Shi Zhixuan, the 'evil king' whom even Cihang Jingzhai fears!" Xu Ziling lost his voice and said: "Shi Zhixuan, isn't that Shi Qingxuan's biological father?" Cao Yinglong looked up at the sky and turned to the main topic in order to hurry up: "In the past hundred years, the world has been in chaos, and the Demon Sect has produced several outstanding figures, the most prominent being the 'Empress of Yin' Zhu Yuyan, the 'Evil Emperor' Xiang Yutian and 'Evil King' Shi Zhixuan, in terms of fame, Zhu Yuyan should be the most prosperous, but in terms of strength, the other two are by no means inferior to her."

Xu Ziling let out a breath of cold air and said, "Xiang Yutian regained his conscience before he died. Since Shi Zhixuan is united with Bi Xiuxin, it is reasonable to change his ways and return to the right." Cao Yinglong showed a look of fear and contempt, and said with a "pooh": "Shi Zhixuan is an inherently evil person. The reason why the Sui Dynasty fell and the world changed from unity to chaos, he must bear the greatest responsibility." Xu Ziling was stunned and said: "There is such a thing, what kind of ability does Shi Zhixuan use to subvert Da Sui?"

Cao Yinglong gritted his teeth and said, "Another identity of Shi Zhixuan is Yang Guang's most trusted minister, Pei Ju, who is in charge of Sino-foreign trade. Yang Guang's expedition to Korea was precisely at his instigation." Xu Ziling was shocked in his heart. On that day, Xing Mofei mentioned this person to them in the Manqing Court, saying that he wrote three volumes of "Pictures of the Western Regions", which described the style and features of the forty-four countries in the Western Regions. Yang Guangda raised troops and horses, and made an expedition outside the territory.Fuqian came to the east this time just to settle accounts with him.This person is also good at using tricks.Stirring the wind and rain in the Western Regions, the Turks were so tired that they split up and attacked each other, killing and wounding the wild.Yang Guang also led to the rebellion of the people due to the three conquests of Goryeo, and eventually fell.

Cao Yinglong said sternly: "Yang Guang's inhumanity is related to his nature, but if Shi Zhixuan hadn't contributed to the flames, he would never have ruined Yang Jian's strong family so quickly." Xu Ziling's scalp was numb and he said, "What good does it do him?" Cao Yinglong sighed: "The problem is that both Emperor Wen and Emperor Yang vigorously advocated Buddhism. They built Buddhist temples across the country, copied Buddhist scriptures, and promoted Buddhism. If the power of the state is used to preach, this is completely different from the belief of the Demon Gate. Shi Zhixuan How could they be allowed to act recklessly. In the final analysis, the dispute between Cihang Jingzhai and the Demon Sect is a dispute over who belongs to the orthodoxy." Xu Ziling was dumbfounded when he heard this, and said in puzzlement: "If it's only aimed at Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Temple, then why don't all the sects of the Demon Sect focus their efforts on annihilating them in one fell swoop, but instead drag the people into dire straits. Wouldn't it be worth the loss if the foreign race invaded?" Cao Yinglong said: "The magic sect emphasizes relentless emotion and nature, and if you practice the highest skills, you will lose your sons and grandchildren. They also regard life as a short transition like the Buddha said, illusory without ultimate meaning. It's just their method of breaking the mystery , but not to save the world and help people, but to regard morality and etiquette as child's play, so it can be used to pursue goals, use whatever means, and be free from any restrictions." Xu Ziling sighed: "Brother Cao's previous actions are in line with the purpose of the Demon Sect." Cao Yinglong said dejectedly: "Because I grew up under the influence of the Demon Sect, I just took everything for granted. Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty deposed all schools of thought and only respected Confucianism, the struggle for orthodoxy began, and there was a difference between good and evil in the world. Come to the East of the Demon Sect , the Chinese translation of Hu Shu makes things even more complicated. For you, fighting for the world is a political dispute, but for us it is a dispute for morality. When he was prosperous and prosperous, I could not afford to sink. No, I still hate the foreign Buddhism. Hmph! Buddhism does not play out its demonic books, absurdly exaggerating demonic laws, and deceiving mediocre teachings. What past sins will be rewarded in the future. Remuneration; fasting for one day, hoping for food for a hundred days, so that the deluded and foolish seek merit and virtue. If it is true that all dharmas are empty, why are you so greedy and deluded?" It was the first time for Xu Ziling to listen to people espousing Buddhism, these arguments were obviously often talked about by people in the devil's sect, so Cao Yinglong's words were like a long river. Cao Yinglong continued: "As for the desire to destroy Cihang Jingzhai, it is even easier said than done. The Yingui Sect has always been fighting against Jingzhai, and has always been at a disadvantage. Moreover, Jingzhai has surpassed ordinary religions and has become the supreme of Buddhism and Taoism. Holy land. Anyone who blatantly attacks it will provoke the intervention of Taoists like Ning Daoqi, or those eminent monks from the four sects of Buddhism who have never cared about worldly affairs." Xu Ziling heard that the fortress was wide open, and said movedly: "The four schools of Buddhism are those four schools." Although he really wanted to ask about Shi Qingxuan directly, he couldn't help being attracted by Cao Yinglong's inside story about the explosion of the Demon Sect.Only now did I understand why Cao Yinglong was so confident that he would think his information was worth money, enough to change his life. Unknowingly, only half an hour before dawn, Xu Ziling's mind has been fully focused on this struggle that is both detached from Jianghu politics and closely related to it. Cao Yinglong looked at the sky again, and quickly replied: "The four schools are Tiantai School, Sanlun School, Huayan School, and Zen School. The hosts are all eminent monks who have transcended martial arts and become holy, and have profound Taoism. They have never been involved in disputes between martial arts and the secular world. Of course, no one dared to provoke them. The only exception was Shi Zhixuan. He had worshiped Ji Zang, the master of Sanlun School, and Master Daoxin, the fourth ancestor of Zen Buddhism, and secretly learned their skills. He is also the head of the two families, if it wasn't for Jingzhai's Bi Xiuxin, even if Ning Daoqi took action himself, he might not be able to subdue him." Seeing Cao Yinglong's cooperation, Xu Ziling knew everything and said everything.Began to believe in his sincerity to change his mind, and also worried about his safety, although he was full of doubts, he didn't dare to go far, and hurriedly said: "What is the relationship between Yang Xuyan and Shi Zhixuan, why did he go to harm Shi Zhixuan's daughter?" Cao Yinglong replied: "Strictly speaking, Yang Xuyan is not a member of the Demon Sect. His relationship with the Demon Sect is due to Shi Zhixuan." After a pause, he said as if he had made up his mind: "Yang Xuyan is the grandson of Yang Jian, the son of Yang Yong, and the nephew of Yang Guang." Xu Ziling was moved and said, "So that's how it is!" For a long time, they couldn't figure out Yang Xuyan's confusing and mysterious identity. He seemed to be following Yang Guang's orders, but also seemed to be helping outsiders to deal with Yang Guang.But if he was the son of Yang Yong, then Yang Guang, who killed his elder brother Yang Yong to stand on his own, would be his father-killing enemy. Cao Yinglong continued: "Shi Zhixuan rescued Yang Xuyan privately and used another child's corpse as a count. He was uneasy and kind, intending to corrupt the Sui government and restore Yang Xuyan. Who knows that things got out of hand, but he accidentally found out that Yang Xuyan Regardless of his xinxing and aptitude, Yan can inherit his unique learning, so accept him as an apprentice and pass on martial arts. No one in the world knows about this except me, so I have the audacity to exchange it with Brother Xu." Then he closed his eyes, his face turned pale, and there was a faint "cracking" sound from the joints in his body. It was the first time for Xu Ziling to see the secret technique of Sangong, and he felt sympathetic, but he knew he should not stop it. Cao Yinglong said slowly: "When Shi Zhixuan knew that the chaos in the world had escaped his control, he suddenly disappeared due to some reasons that Yang Xuyan and I didn't understand. I didn't want to join forces with Zhu Can and Xiao Mian, but But Yang Xuyan came to see me in person and persuaded me to plan to deal with you. He also revealed that Shi Qingxuan had joined forces with you to deal with You Niaojuan and others. If we don't deal with you quickly, maybe Shi Qingxuan will let her keep Shi Zhixuan and implicate you. The important Momen classics are entrusted to you, so we must make a quick decision. I will deal with you with a two-pronged approach, while he will go to Sichuan to deceive the classics into his hands. As for the details, I don’t even know. Xu Yan is just like Shi Zhixuan in his evil nature, and he firmly believes that only by getting rid of Shi Qingxuan can Shi Zhixuan return to his 'nature' and come out to help him win the world." At the end, there was no trace of blood on his face, and he couldn't help panting. Xu Ziling was full of compassion, and pulled the hands of this murderous man who had been rampant and murderous like hemp, while carefully examining whether his San Gong was true.On the other hand, he stopped him from continuing to practice kung fu, and said in amazement: "Yang Xuyan told you about this conspiracy a few days ago, how could I stop it in time?" Cao Yinglong got his true energy input, blood came back to his face, he sighed: "Shi Zhixuan's only kindness to me is to pass on my magic kung fu, now I have returned the kung fu to him, and I don't owe him any more." After taking another breath, he answered the question that Xu Ziling urgently wanted to know: "This kid has suffered internal injuries for some reason, and he has to cultivate for a period of time before he can go to Sichuan to find Shi Qingxuan, so if Brother Xu rushes immediately, it will be very important. Opportunity is ahead of him, and Shi Qingxuan can resolve this calamity." At this moment, Xu Ziling was completely suspicious of him, let go of his hands and said, "Brother Cao, what unfulfilled wishes do you have?" Cao Yinglong smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Xu is indeed brilliant, knowing that I can barely live for another year or a half after I finish my kung fu, but I can only fulfill this wish by myself. Sigh! It's a long story, let's put it simply. I once secretly betrayed my master and gave birth to a daughter with a woman, but this time I want to throw everything away and go back to see her mother and daughter, and let them know that I have other reasons than abandoning them." Xu Ziling stayed on the spot when he heard it, if someone had told him before that that the murderous Cao Yinglong had such a deep love for his wife and daughter, he would not believe it even if he was killed. Knowing that time is running out, Xu Ziling summoned his mount with a smack of lips, and asked: "Which factions are the two sects and six ways, and what is their relationship? Shi Zhixuan is also the leader of those two sects?" Cao Yinglong took the whip gratefully, and said: ""The Secret of the Heavenly Demon" is divided into six volumes, and it has developed into two schools and six ways. After the Huihuajian Sect and Butian Pavilion's highest mental method, they created the mysterious and incomparable miraculous skill called 'Immortal Seal', which established itself in the Demon Sect, and even Zhu Yuyan and Xiang Yutian admired it." Then he said: "The two schools are Yingui and Huajian schools, and the six schools are Xieji, Mieqing, Zhenzhuan, Butian, Tianlian, and Moxiang. Among them, Zhenzhuan is divided into two, namely Daozu Zhenzhuan and Laojun. View." Cao Yinglong got on his horse and shouted: "We will never see each other again, brother Xu must be careful of Yang Xuyan, given time, he will be another Shi Zhixuan." Then he leaned over and took out a bamboo tube from his bosom, stuffed it into Xu Ziling's hand, and then rode away with his horse.The Young Marshal scattered around, allowing him to escape from the encirclement. Under the leadership of Kou Zhong and Shang Xiuxun, nearly a thousand ranch warriors covered up like a swift cloud, just in time to watch Cao Yinglong, who turned into a small dot at the end of the horizon at the dawn of dawn. Shang Xiuxun looked suspiciously at the lonely man riding away, and came to Xu Ziling and asked, "Isn't that Cao Yinglong?" Xu Ziling said calmly, "It's him!" Shang Xiuxun lost his voice: "What?" At this time Kou Zhong galloped his horse to the other side of Xu Ziling, reined in his horse and stopped, his gaze shifted from Cao Yinglong to the place where the corpse was buried, where he saw the cauldron with the pomegranate stick on his back, but he didn't speak. Shang Xiuxun's face darkened.Staring at Xu Ziling fiercely, he said, "Why did you let him go?" Xu Ziling lowered his head and glanced at the bamboo tube in his hand, and said calmly: "He traded the secret about Yang Xuyan in exchange for half a year's life, so that he can fulfill a wish he has had for many years." Shang Xiuxun changed his face and said: "What kind of thing is Yang Xuyan, but in Master Xu's heart he thinks it is more important than the blood feud of thousands of soldiers in my ranch?" Kou Zhong hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "The owner calm down, Ziling must have his reasons for doing this." Shang Xiuxun said with a cold face: "Of course you helped him! I'm not angry, but I need a satisfactory explanation." At this time, the sky was getting brighter, and although thousands of soldiers gathered on the grassland, everyone was silent. Hold your breath. Xu Ziling met Shang Xiuxun who stared at almond-eyed, pretty face with a pale face, and said with a wry smile: "I made up my mind not to let Cao Yinglong leave alive. It's only because the information he exchanged would involve the life and death of a friend of my younger brother. No……" Shang Xiuxun interrupted him: "What friend?" Xu Ziling replied honestly: "It's Shi Qingxuan, has the owner heard of her name?" Shang Xiuxun was stunned for a moment, and then all the blood on her pretty face disappeared. When Kou Zhong cried out in his heart, but he didn't know how to remedy it, the beautiful farm owner screamed: "It turned out to be Shi Qingxuan, no wonder Xu Ziling you set up our ranch. Regardless of the blood feud, let this villain who killed a thousand swords go back to the sea and return to the mountain, and let him continue to harm the people, so I misunderstood you." Then he looked at Kou Zhong and said fiercely: "I'm going to chase Cao Yinglong now, whether you go or not." Kou Zhongwei wondered: "Young Master Ling said just now that Cao Yinglong is half dead, he won't live for half a year, hey!" Shang Xiuxun said word by word: "I just ask you, should you go or not?" Kou Zhong said dejectedly: "What Young Master Ling said is the same as what I, Kou, said. The host please forgive me." Shang Xiuxun rode his horse forward for more than ten steps, then circled back, swept around the sun, nodded with phoenix eyes and said "yes" three times, and then coquettishly said: "The kindness and resentment between me and you, Let's make a clean break here, and we will have nothing to do in the future. Brothers! Come with me!" She stopped chasing Cao Yinglong, and just rode away on the same path, all the ranch soldiers had to chase after her, coming like a whirlwind, going like a whirlwind, and walked away in the blink of an eye, only Xu Kou and Bai Shaoshuai were left Jun, you look at each other with eyes, and you are speechless. Kou Zhong jumped off his horse, shook his head with a wry smile and said, "A jealous woman." Xu Ziling said helplessly, "I'm sorry!" Kou Zhongtan put his arms around his shoulders and said: "One man, two brothers, why do you say such things? If there is no Pegasus Ranch, there will be no Pegasus Ranch, and it is not the end of the world." Feeling warm in Xu Ziling's heart, he stuffed the bamboo tube into Kou Zhong's hand, and said in a low voice, "It should be a treasure map of the thief's loot inside, it should be for Yang Xuyan, you can take a look if you have time!"
