Then, Shi Jue felt a gust of cold wind blowing against his face.
"Wait a minute." The old man suddenly said.
A steel sword stopped in front of Shi Jue, a few locks of hair fell down, and there was a trace of blood on his forehead. His mind was blank, and he stood stupidly. He didn't know when this beard appeared on his face.
In front of him, he couldn't see clearly how the sword reached his head. He narrowly escaped death and almost died.
"Commander, why do you want to keep him?" asked the bearded man.
"First ask about the situation." The old man came over and pulled out the sword in the bearded hand and said.
When Shi Jue came to his senses, he did not show fear. For him, he was satisfied if he could live for more than three months with enough food. After experiencing many lives and deaths, death was not scary to him.
!
"You're very courageous." The old man still looked at him with sharp eyes and said. An ordinary child would have been scared to tears. This child is not simple and has a will that ordinary people don't have. He also has some doubts about the origin of this child, but this
It also aroused his curiosity. He must have understood clearly that the enemy will not send a genius to be a spy!
"What I said is true." Shi Jue said.
"Take out the letter." the old man said.
"No, that person ordered that you must see the sect master in person." Shi Jue shook his head. He knew that this letter could not only bring him a good life, but also be a life-saving talisman.
"Commander, just kill him and find the letter from him," said the bearded man.
"He is just a child who has never practiced martial arts." The old man glared at him and said.
"Then what should I do? How about I take it from him by force?" the bearded man asked.
"No, he must be sent to the sect alive." The old man thought for a while and said.
"Why?" Bearded asked in confusion.
"If there is important information on this child, then it is valuable to stay. Besides, a child who has never practiced martial arts is not a threat! Are you still afraid of him?" The old man said: "We will escort him to the sect immediately."
Lao Jianghu is different. He quickly analyzed the key points of the problem. The letter is dead, and the value of the living is greater. You can get more information that is more important than the letter!
"Let's go back to the sect." The old man said loudly.
The five people walked out of the tavern. Then they led the horses outside the door. The old man carried Shi Jue onto the horse, and the five people climbed on the horse Juechen in a well-trained manner and left.
…
The horse was riding fast, passing through many small towns, and one day they arrived at the foot of a high mountain.
This is not a small town, but a tall city. The city wall is twenty meters high, and its momentum is far beyond what those small towns can match.
At the gate of the city, the old man showed his token, and five war horses rushed into the city. Shi Jue was dazzled, this was a city? It was far from being a small town. There were tall buildings with several floors on both sides of the street, and the ground was paved with stone slabs.
An exquisite carriage flashed before our eyes. Many men and women with swords hanging from their waists were walking on the road. They were several levels higher than the nobles in the small town.
It was another small city, this should be the city lord's palace. The commander dismounted his horse and walked in quickly. The other four people took Shi Jue off his horse and waited outside the city gate.
Soon the old man came out and picked up Shi Jue and walked in. When he arrived at the small town, Shi Jue stared at the layout of the inner city with his mouth open. It was even more luxurious here, with rockeries, pools, pavilions and pavilions, and exquisite carpets on the ground.
Walking through the corridor and entering the house inside, a middle-aged man sat on a chair with a majestic expression. There were many files on the desk in front of him, and he was reviewing them carefully.
"Lord City Lord, this kid said he had an important letter for the sect leader. His subordinates didn't dare to take authority, so they brought him here." The old man said.
The city lord raised his head, looked at Shi Jue and said, "I am the sect leader's son, just give me the letter."
"Little boy, this is the Lord of Juejian City. You can hand over your letter." The old man said.
Shi Jue knew that this was probably a big shot in the Juejian Sect. Meeting the sect master was just an excuse for him. He just wanted to give the letter to someone who could tell the story.
He took out the money bag from his belt, then took out the bamboo tube that the mysterious man gave him, and handed it over respectfully.
The old man took the bamboo tube and handed it to the city lord.
"This is an important letter from the sect." The city lord looked at it and stood up in surprise and said, "No, there is a special secret from Lao Wu!"
"Wasn't the Fifth Master being hunted to death by the Ba Dao Clan?" the old man asked.
"According to calculations, Lao Wu should have seen this child before he died." The city lord stared at Shi Jue with sharp eyes and said.
"Little baby, can you tell me what happened?" the city lord asked.
"I...I am a little beggar..." Shi Jue explained what happened, and at the same time he did not forget to explain in detail the promise that the man made to him.
"Lao Wu is devoted to the sect!..." the city lord sat down in pain and said.
"Lord City Lord, what should I do with this baby?" the commander asked, pointing at Shi Jue.
"This is the promise Lao Wu made to him before he died! ... He traveled thousands of miles and risked his life to deliver the letter to us. He is considered a loyal son. I think he has good character." The city lord thought for a moment and said.
: "Just send him to the sect. Whether he can achieve anything depends on his own destiny. It can be regarded as an explanation for Lao Wu!"
"I'll send him right away," the leader said.
"Slow down! Let me take him there. I just want Lao Wu to risk his own life to get my information and send it to the sect master." The city lord suddenly stopped the commander and said.
"Little baby, you are so lucky." The commander looked at Shi Jue and said with a smile. Then he said to the city lord: "I will resign."
The city lord nodded.
…
Under a high mountain, next to a huge rock is the mountain gate of Juejianmen. It is not far from Juejian City, about ten kilometers away.
The three powerful characters "Juejianmen" on the boulder are integrated with the boulder. The sword's meaning is so high that swordsmen dare not look at these three giant characters.
It is said that the Juejian Sect was once a super sect, and its founder was a sword master. He passed down a set of exquisite swordsmanship, so it was called the Juejian Sect. However, in the long history of Longquan Continent, the Juejian Sect gradually slowly
The earth is declining, and without the support of the Juggernaut, the decline is unstoppable.
After retreating from a super sect to a large sect, this set of exquisite swordsmanship disappeared in an accident five hundred years ago. From then on, the Juejian Sect became a medium-sized sect. Later, the territory was occupied by other sects and evolved into the current small sect. It is difficult to move forward.
Small sect.
Without the support of the super sect's heritage, Juejian Sect may have disappeared in the long history of Longquan Continent. But judging from the current situation, Juejian Sect is also at the point of life and death. There are four major and minor sword sects around Juejian Sect.
The sects all have deep conflicts with the Juejian Sect, and they have united to invade the Juejian Sect's territory. A crisis has shrouded the Juejian Sect's head.
However, the secrets of Juejian Sect were still there, and they did not dare to be too presumptuous. When the disciples guarding the mountain saw the city lord, they immediately let them enter the mountain gate.
