Chapter 423 Happened~ What happened? Happened~ what happened?
"What happened~?" "What happened~?" "What happened~?"
The forest of swords covered the sky and the sun, looking out of longevity, Zhao Kai, who had lost his weapon, was the first to react.
Looking down at his empty hands, looking up again, the Spring Thunder Embroidered Winter Swords that Xu Fengnian was carrying were still there.
This broke his mentality in half.
The so-called two fists are no match for four hands, but if you have a knife in your hand, you still have two
The two sentences before and after "Jian Lai" came from Li Chungang and Zhou Ji. Before the reinforcements arrived, now is a good time to kill Xu Fengnian!
Zhao Kai's expression was solemn, he turned to look at the Temple of Longevity next to him, bowed down and saluted, pinning his hopes on the royal ancestors who lived in seclusion here.
"Please return before"
The door that had been secretly closed paused for a moment, as if being discovered by someone, the speed suddenly accelerated, and it was closed at the end of the stone steps with a 'bang~'.
The muscles in the corners of Zhao Kai's eyes twitched slightly, and the last word 'generation' was stuck in his mouth, and the light ending sound was drowned out by the loud sound of the door closing.
Although Xu Fengnian was paying attention to the sword forests that were gathering more and more in the sky, he still paid attention to his surroundings.
Hearing the loud sound of the Taoist temple slamming the door next to him, he put up his swords and looked towards Zhao Kai vigilantly, only to find that the gate of the Longevity Temple was closed tightly this time. Rampage deep in the forest.
"What kind of land gods, what kind of royal ancestors, I have already led people to the door of the house, so I dare not do anything!"
Zhao Kai's mentality completely collapsed, and he still looked at Xu Fengnian unwillingly. From time to time, he was slapped on the face by the lush branches and leaves in the forest, pulled his messy oblique bangs a few times, and said angrily: "No one is reliable~!"
Poor bandits don't chase after them.
Xu Fengnian looked at Zhao Kai's disappearing figure, hesitated for a moment, and did not choose to follow.
This place is Longhu Mountain after all. Zhao Danping, as one of the Four Heavenly Masters of Dragon and Tiger, dared to do it in public knowing his identity.
At the moment, it is better to meet up with Zhou Ji and the others as soon as possible. As for Zhao Kai, as long as the other party still wants to kill him, he will definitely show up again.
Thinking of this, Xu Fengnian ran towards the location where the flying sword was located without hesitation.
There was a babbling sound of the door opening, and a little boy who looked only seven or eight years old opened a crack in the door, and looked at the endless and increasing number of flying swords, showing a deep gaze that did not match his age.
"The Gate of Heaven can be expected! The Gate of Heaven can be expected!"
A voice that was half old and half childish echoed in the Taoist temple, the door closed again, and the little Taoist boy walked towards the temple with his hands behind his back, completely unaware of the embarrassment he had when he slammed the door before, "Xu Fengnian is going to kill, and the gate of heaven is going to open, it seems that I It's time to pack up and hang out with Xu Fengnian and go to Wudi City."
Bluestone bridge head.
Two figures rushed to the two ends of the stone bridge one after another. Xu Fengnian walked around the sword forest in fear, came to the bridge and said, "What happened?"
"Enough." Zhou Ji glanced at him contemptuously, Xu Fengnian smiled sarcastically, looked at the Taoist surrounded by the sword forest, and asked curiously: "Who is this person?"
"Zhao Huangchao." Zhou Ji wrote lightly, "Zhao Kai's book was written by him."
"Zhao from the royal family of Zhao Liyang" Xu Fengnian heard the other party's name, thought for a moment, understood, and said in a deep voice, "Then you are?"
If the sword rain hangs but does not kill, there must be a plan.
Zhao Huangchao looked at the more and more swords gathering, and tightly clenched the bamboo pole in his hand, but he never dared to make a move.
"Didn't you always want to know the truth about your mother's murder? What he wrote is the same as the truth, maybe he can ask something else."
Zhou Ji looked at Zhao Huangchao with a smile that was not a smile. Zhao Huangchao's eyes flashed brightly, his slightly frowned brows stretched, and he said in a deep voice: "The words written in the book are true, and the poor dare not say half a lie. Ever since Princess Beiliang met Xu Xiao has always been suspicious of the royal family, which led to the instability of the Liyang Dynasty, and mutual suspicion between Beiliang and the royal family."
"Pindao can't bear to see the two sides kill again for this, and the lives of the two places are ruined, so they have been secretly investigating the truth." Zhao Huangchao showed a mournful look, and he looked quite miserable with his distressed appearance. "That day, Wang Xianzhi was indeed in the capital. !"
"Wang Xianzhi sits in the city of Emperor Wudi, and has become a force of his own. He has never listened to scheduling. He has rarely traveled for decades. Why did he appear in the capital of Liyang that day?" Xu Fengnian was stunned when he heard the words. clear.
Zhao Huangchao made seals with his hands, his sleeves puffed up in a wave of air, his beard and hair hung down, and he looked like a fairy, and said solemnly: "The poor Zhao Huangchao is willing to swear by the destiny!"
As soon as this remark came out, even Li Chungang was a little moved.
"Martial arts is bounded by celestial phenomena. Once you enter the celestial phenomena, your own luck will be in harmony with the heaven and the earth. If you swear by the destiny, the higher the cultivation base, the greater the retaliation." Li Chungang said in a deep voice, "Zhao Huangchao's cultivation base is already a land fairyland, If you tell a lie under oath, the consequences are even more serious."
"In other words, my mother's death is probably related to Wang Xianzhi?"
Things have come to this, Xu Fengnian couldn't help but not believe it.
Zhou Ji shook his head, sneered and said: "Telling the truth and avoiding the seriousness are two different things. Since you are willing to swear by the destiny, you may as well make a few more, or just simply take the oath by the destiny and tell us who participated in it back then." You can do it against Princess Beiliang."
"Junior, don't bully people too much!"
The grief on Zhao Huangchao's face gradually faded away, replaced by a blushing embarrassment, as if out of breath, he stomped on the ground suddenly, the boulder under his feet shattered, and the whole person sank toward the crack where the stone shattered.
However, Jian Guang was as fast as lightning, a few points faster than his sinking speed.
The scattered gravel could not stop the fine sword rain at all.
Following Zhou Jijian's command, in an instant, the flying sword split into two dragons, which drilled into the ground in advance, lifted Zhao Huangchao from the midair of the deep pool, and strangled away.
Zhao Huangchao was pushed into the air, and the qi that propped up his body shattered in an instant. The emerald green bamboo pole in his hand was crushed by countless flying swords without even a breath. Rolling away to the depths of the mountains and forests, only thousands of swords are left, and a real 'sword forest' is formed among the grass and woodlands all over the mountains and plains.
Xu Fengnian glanced at Zhou Ji with a strange expression.
Zhou Ji frowned and said, "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Didn't Yuan Tingshan stay here?" Zhou Ji gave him a blank look, and said: "Although martial arts are different from immortal ways, the higher the cultivation level, the tougher the soul, the death of the body does not mean the death of the soul, if the next time you meet With such a master, even if you kill the opponent, you must remember to make up the sword, lest the opponent fight for disillusionment and die with you."
"Is there such a fallacy?" Xu Fengnian stared with disbelief.
Li Chungang is good at swordsmanship, but he doesn't know much about the soul. He scratched his head and showed a thoughtful look.
Returning to the Tianshi Mansion in the front courtyard, Zhao Danping and Zhao Xituan hurriedly greeted him.
Noticing that Xu Fengnian was still full of energy, a look of disappointment flashed in Zhao Danping's eyes, Xu Fengnian smiled and said, "Why, Xueshi Zhao looks a little disappointed?"
Hearing that Xu Fengnian called him 'Bachelor' instead of 'Tianshi', Zhao Danping was annoyed in his heart, but on the surface he still had a smile on his face, "It's rare for the son to come to Tianshi's mansion, the reception of Tianshi's mansion is not good. It is a bit of a pity for Pindao to allow the son to stay for a few more days."
"Don't worry, there will be opportunities in the future."
Xu Fengnian smiled, looked at the embarrassed Zhao Xituan and said: "Old Master, help me take care of my brother, don't bully him, I will come to pick him up in a few years."
Zhao Xituan glanced at the more embarrassed Zhao Danping, knowing that Xu Fengnian's words were actually meant for others to hear.
As a "Bachelor of Qingci", Zhao Danping has lived in the capital for a long time, and has been in the court, and he has long been contaminated with officialdom.
When the plan was shattered, he immediately changed the direction of the wind, hiding his clumsiness and showing weakness, and eased the relationship between the two parties. He stepped forward and said with a smile: "My lord, look at our sword."
Xu Fengnian shrugged and pointed to the side.
Zhao Danping looked at Li Chungang and said respectfully, "Senior."
Li Chungang picked his nose, flicked it onto Zhao Danping's Taoist robe, and pointed behind him, "He took it away, ask him."
Zhou Ji wanted to point behind him, but when he found no one behind him, he turned towards the direction of the back mountain, "There are a lot of swords coming, some of them are yours, some are from Huishan, and some are from other places, you can see for yourself deal with it."
Zhao Danping lifted the hem of his clothes and led a group of disciples to run towards the back mountain. Looking at the long swords in the mountains and fields, he felt the gap in realm and strength again.
Looking bitterly at the Ling Xiao scabbard in his hand, it seems that holding a pen is more suitable for him than holding a sword.
The winding path led to a secluded place, Zhao Danping waved away the accompanying disciples, and walked alone towards the concept of longevity deep in the forest.
The Taoist temple is simple, but it seems to be independent of the outside world. It is located in the quiet mountains and forests where few people visit, and it is quite ethereal.
This is the most mysterious place of Longhu Mountain, and the reclusive person is Zhao Xuansu, the ancestor of Longhu.
Zhao Danping walked slowly on the stone path, every step full of awe, before he could reach the steps outside the door, the closed door of the Temple of Longevity slowly opened.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, a child who looked no more than seven or eight years old had his head knotted in a bun and was wearing a loose and bulky Taoist robe. He stopped behind the threshold and looked down at Zhao Danping at the bottom of the steps.
Zhao Danping's complexion was heavy, he saluted respectfully, and said bitterly: "Patriarch, Danping has searched all over Bishuitan, but there is no trace of Grand Master Uncle, I'm afraid he has passed away."
"Zhao Huangchao" made an old voice, sighed faintly, and raised his head, "Even so, you still want to kill Xu Fengnian?"
"Xu Fengnian is not dead, Wudang will surely rise." Zhao Danping gritted his teeth and said in a hateful voice, "This time I wanted to abolish his Dahuang Court, but Grand Master Shu went to immortal for this, and asked Patriarch to come forward and leave the Yang Dynasty for a hundred years for me Foundation, for the inheritance of my Dragon and Tiger Taoism, kill Xu Fengnian!"
"I know about this, you go down."
The child flicked his sleeves, dragged his long clothes, and walked towards the Taoist temple with his hands behind his back.
The gate of Changsheng Temple closed slowly, Zhao Danping gave a long salute at the bottom of the steps, and it took a long time before he got up.
On the way down the mountain, the three of them chatted about the two sword summonings just now, Xu Fengnian said in surprise: "Senior, you can return to the Land of Gods and Wonderland, and Wang Xianzhi is no more than a celestial phenomenon, so you will surely win him?"
"Speaking of which, this time I am in a perfect state of mind, and it is thanks to your enlightenment to return to the land gods." Li Chungang said cheerfully: "But the realm is the realm, and if you can fight back, you can fight. , Land Immortals, if you really want to compare them in martial arts, in the battle of life and death, the land immortals may not be able to win the first three."
"Just now that Zhao Huangchao is also a land god. Although he suffered internal injuries and his realm is not perfect, even if he is not injured, he cannot beat the slightly stronger Celestial Realm." Zhou Ji agreed.
"Really? That's a land god." Xu Fengnian was surprised.
Zhou Ji shook his head and said with a smile: "His terrestrial gods don't follow the path of martial arts, and they are not very good at fighting with hands. Apart from being more capable, they are good at insidious people with supernatural powers."
Hearing Zhou Ji mentioning "spiritual soul" several times, Xu Fengnian didn't care much, and asked instead: "According to what you say, what's the use of realm?"
"The state of mind is different, the comprehension is also different, and the way forward is naturally different." Zhou Ji said with a smile, "The Qionghua mind method I passed on to you is the way to combine the immortal way and the martial way, and the subtlety of it will wait for you to cultivate to the heavenly state I will understand."
"But that's the way of the future." Seeing Xu Fengnian's expectant look, Zhou Ji couldn't help laughing, "As for now... the way forward is the way down the mountain."
Zhou Ji finished speaking and passed Li Chungang, leaving them with an unfathomable back view.
"Okay, say a few words and pretend again."
Xu Fengnian shrugged, and followed helplessly. The three of them quickly returned to Xiaoyaoguanwai, and saw a familiar figure pacing back and forth outside the door from a distance, looking this way from time to time on tiptoe.
Seeing Xu Fengnian's safe return, that petite figure ran down a few steps anxiously, then stopped, not knowing what he was thinking, then turned around and ran back to Xiaoyaoguan, never to come out again.
When they returned to the Taoist temple, Huang Man'er and Ning Emei greeted them first. Xu Fengnian was stunned by the cloth bag in Huang Man'er's hand, and he leaned back dumbfounded. hawthorn.
"Brother, try it, I have picked all of these, and they are the most familiar ones."
Xu Fengnian picked up one and bit it, talked to him for a while, and then looked at Ning Emei.
Ning Emei said that the Fengzi Camp has been packed and ready to go at any time.
Xu Fengnian noticed the sight coming from the side, turned his head slightly, caught a glimpse of Jiang Ni who was peeking at him from the side of the flower garden, and couldn't help showing a smile, but didn't want Jiang Ni to roll his eyes back at him, snorted, and looked at him nonchalantly. elsewhere.
Xu Fengnian pondered for a moment and said: "The crisis over Tianshi Mansion is temporarily lifted, rest for one night, and it's not too late to leave tomorrow."
Ning Emei led the order to retreat, but Huang Man'er next to her showed a happy smile.
Leaving tomorrow, doesn't it mean that Xu Fengnian can stay here for another day?
