Before Hanxiong returned to the mountain, the heads in Hongjin City had just been hung up, and the news had just spread. I believe that in a while, Xiaolu and Hanxiong's names might spread throughout Bayuan.
Hanxiong rushed back to the mountain yesterday evening. Huwa was in retreat in the cave, and Xiaojun and Dajun went down the mountain again. He immediately went to his master and the third elder to ask for details. The third elder told him that the man they had seen
The old man is indeed the sect leader, Mr. Jian Sha, and Jian Sha also knows about their experiences outside Hongjin City and in the Southern Wasteland. The sect leader will return to the mountain tomorrow, and will summon Xiao Lu after returning to the mountain.
Hanxiong had just returned to the cave to rest for the night, but unexpectedly, Huwa came to his door early this morning.
When Huwa heard these things, he was shocked on the spot. He blinked for a long time before sighing: "Miss Qiluo has long guessed that the old man who chopped firewood is the elder on Wufu Hill. But Senior Brother Dajun doesn't know the sword.
Sect Master Sha, we don’t even dare to think like that!... The Sect Master said he wanted to see me, is it today?"
Hanxiong: "Yes, today is the day, just wait... You have been practicing in seclusion during this period. You didn't expect that you have already become famous in Bayuan, right?"
Huwa sighed again: "It's not us who are really famous in Ba Yuan, but Mr. Jiansha. Ever since I arrived in Hongjincheng, I always had a feeling that someone was paying attention to me secretly, but I didn't expect it to be like this...
Actually, I really don’t want to be so famous.” He has his own secret, and of course he doesn’t want to attract too much attention. But Mr. Jiansha came out like this. Fortunately, it was just the name “Xiaolu” and he was a disciple of Wufuqiu.
Otherwise, the tiger baby would not know whether to cry or laugh.
Hanxiong patted him on the shoulder and said: "Brother, the sect master is doing this to help you solve future troubles. It doesn't matter if you don't accept it, this is the method of Jiansha!"
Nearly half a year has passed since the Southern Wilderness. At that time, the identity of the old man who cut firewood was unknown, and the heads of six disciples from the Beast Mountain were also mysteriously missing. Huwa and others reported the matter to the second elder. But they did not tell anyone else.
Say more. These disciples from Beast Mountain have disappeared inexplicably. As time goes by, their sect will definitely trace them.
I'm afraid Zhongshoushan can't find out how they died, but it is possible to find out who they had a conflict with outside Hongjin City before. This is also the potential of Huwa, Hanxiong, including Xiaosha and others.
But the murderer is Mr. Jiansha, so the situation is different.
As a sword evil spirit, they punished this group of thugs under Wufuqiu, and what they did was the most taboo thing for Wufuqiu. How could they be sneaky and silent? Since they were killed, they had to be killed openly, even to the point of having to kill them.
Everyone in the world heard about it! Not only that, the Jiansha Sect Master also wanted to promote the name of his disciples.
The person was killed by Jian Sha himself, and the reasons have been explained clearly. Everyone in Hongjincheng City knows it, and all the cultivation sects in Ba Yuan will also hear about it. Don't say who comes to settle the score in Beast Mountain, even if you come, I'm afraid you can only apologize.
An apology.
Before Huwa went up the mountain, there was another troublesome matter, which was to kill Yanfeng, a fifth-level monk from Zheng Shi Guoying Zhuling. Jiansha simply took this matter down. He claimed that Xiaolu killed him right under his nose.
People, the implication -
- Xiaolu had the ability to handle it, so he didn’t do it himself; otherwise, even if Xiaolu didn’t kill Yanfeng, Jiansha would not let this scum go. The rights and wrongs of this matter are very clear. Yingzhuling should feel ashamed and go!
The most incredible thing is that Jiansha did not send the six heads to the Mountain of Beasts, but directly sent them to Hongjincheng at the foot of the mountain. This is the most common method of punishing criminals - Reporter Wufuqiu's
The attitude is very obvious. These people went to the Southern Wilderness to do evil, and Wufuqiu has gone too far to take action. Wufuqiu has no obligation to send people all the way to notify the Beast Mountain.
No wonder the contemporary leader of Wufuqiu is called a sword evil spirit. He acts like a sharp sword with a sharp edge. Hanxiong sighed for a long time. And Huwa also sighed. He already has the Xiangshi Kingdom and the Bashi Kingdom.
Now there is another brand of Zheng Shiguo as a national token. At this moment, a brand on Huwa's waist suddenly glowed brightly, accompanied by fluctuations in mana.
This sign is also a magic weapon. It was given to him by Uncle Jin Rong when he was choosing a cave that day. As long as he is within the five peaks covered by the Wufuqiu Suoshan Formation, the elder can sense his position with this thing and activate it.
This sign conveys a message. Huwa usually wears it on his body and has never seen any movement. At this moment, it is clearly summoning him to go to the Patriarch's Hall.
Han Xiong said: "Your identity card has been shown. It should be summoned by the sect master. Go quickly!"
Huwa left Hanxiong's cave and rushed to the Patriarch's Hall. Uncle Jin Rong was waiting on the long steps in front of the door. When he saw him, he nodded and said: "Xiaolu, the sect master has returned to the mountain. I want to see you, please come with me."
Uncle Jin Rong led Huwa around the Patriarch's Hall and towards the top of the mountain. The main buildings on the main peak of Wufu Qiu were built at about two-thirds of the height of the mountain. The area close to the peak was usually very crowded with disciples.
Don't set foot in it, it is the place of cultivation for all the elders. Climb along the winding path dug on the cliff and pass through a dense forest. There is a small hidden valley in front of you.
There is a gap like a portal between the steep cliffs. Master Jin Rong stopped here and said, "The sect master is waiting for you inside. Go in by yourself."
Entering it is actually another world, surrounded by mist and mist. This place cannot be seen from the outside. There is a pool in the valley, and there is a courtyard of a house next to the pool. Green vines grow on the cliffs of the courtyard, and in the open valley
In the center, there is a dragon's blood treasure tree with its crown spread toward the sky.
Huwa is very familiar with the Dragon Blood Treasure Tree. It is not a native tree species here. It is not easy to successfully transplant it here! Although this Dragon Blood Treasure Tree is not as tall as the one Huwa saw in the Taihao ruins,
But the trees in the Pengshan Forbidden Area are at least five hundred years old.
There is an old man sitting on a wooden pillar under the tree, holding an ax in his hand and chopping firewood. The wood he is chopping is cold fire wood, and it is as thick as a human calf. The ax looks simple and unpretentious, it is made of a warrior stone shell.
, the old man’s movements of chopping wood were also unremarkable.
But look at the extremely tough Cold Fire Wood, which was cut open as easily as a melon and fruit, split into neat little squares as thick as a finger and about a foot long. Huwa had seen such small square strips of Cold Fire Wood,
There are quite a few in the warehouse at Shenghuofeng under the control of the third elder, which are used for furnace fires when refining fine steel.
This was the third time Huwa saw this elder. He stepped forward and saluted: "Disciple Xiaolu, pay homage to the sect master!"
Jian Sha put down his axe, looked at him and said with a smile: "Child, get up! You didn't expect that we have met a long time ago, did you?"
Huwa stood up and said: "Disciple just found out today that you are Mr. Jiansha, the sect leader of Wufuqiu. I have never seen the true face of the master in the Hongjincheng market. Miss Qiluo reminded me in the Southern Wasteland, but I also
I never thought it would be you."
Jian Sha smiled again and said: "It's not that you didn't expect that even the disciples who know me in the mountain would not recognize me as the sect leader when they see such an old man."
While he was speaking, Jian Sha had already stood up. Just as he stood up, a fierce and extraordinary aura suddenly hit his face. His hair was fluttering, and suddenly there was a sharp sword light, and the wrinkles on his forehead also appeared.
Stretched out, the two thick eyebrows flew across like swords, and the straight body was like an unsheathed sword, exuding an indescribable edge in form and spirit.
He is still the same person, but his momentum and feeling have completely changed. Not only has he become younger, more heroic, sharper, and more dazzling, Huwa simply doesn't know how to describe it. Mr. Jiansha is right, if he sees him at this moment
, will definitely not be associated with the old man selling sword embryos in the market, or the old woodcutter in the Southern Wilderness.
This is not only related to appearance. Apart from the disappearance of wrinkles, there is no change in the facial features, but it gives people the impression that they are completely two people. The Sect Master Jiansha that Wufuqiu disciples usually see should be what he looks like at this moment, even if he has never seen him before.
Anyone who passes him can recognize him at a glance - he is not a sword evil spirit, who is a sword evil spirit?
Jian Sha looked at Hu Wa's surprised look and smiled again, pointed at another wooden block in front of him and said: "Child, sit down and talk."
Both of them sat down. Jian Sha restrained the sharp edge in his body and spirit, and turned into an ordinary old country man again. Huwa was actually sweating slightly, not because Jian Sha had shown too much energy just now.
Sharp, it would be okay if he was just like that when they met, but when the sword demon stood up and suddenly revealed his true appearance, it was really shocking. If it were another person, he might have been caught off guard and fell to the ground on the spot.
Jian Sha looked at Hu Wa with a smile on his eyes and brows: "You don't have to be cautious. Now you finally know my identity. Is there anything you want to ask clearly?"
Huwa thought for a while and asked, "Why did you sell the embryo of the divine sword in the market in the first place?"
Jian Sha replied: "Of course it's for the sake of friendship. Every year during the winter solstice, people of all kinds flock to Hongjincheng, including those who plan to go to Wufu Qiu to become servant disciples, and fellow practitioners from various sects who travel to make friends. I
I want to see who among these young people has such eyesight, can they see the mystery of the sword embryo, and what will they do if they see it?
So many people passed by me, and you were the first one to stop and ask. The first thing you asked was not the price, but what I was selling. You kid teased my old man for three days and ran away every day.
Come and see, but don’t buy it! You’ve obviously seen that it’s a treasure, and you don’t seem to have any money, so why don’t you buy it yourself?”
Huwa explained apologetically: "I was just studying various artifacts I saw in the market, and found that the sword embryo you sold was different. But I don't lack any magical artifacts, so I didn't plan to use it.
Buy it. I have traveled a long way and will go to many places in the future. If I want to take away all the good things I see, how can I carry them on my back?"
Jian Sha nodded slightly: "You are discerning, not greedy, and friendly enough. Later, Hanxiong wanted to buy a sword that was handy, so you brought him to buy my sword embryo, and we formed a good relationship.
Dharma, the third elder accepted this direct disciple." (To be continued...)
