Hejiabao with the Sword Chapter 150 - Immortal Beast Liger
Everyone stayed temporarily and followed the sound, and saw this man walking out of the gate of He's house. He had a feather fan and a turban, an immortal style, and a tall figure. Three strands of his long beard were moving in the wind. It was this man who spoke just now.
Seeing this person, even the domineering young master's arrogance just now weakened a bit, but he still said that he was unyielding towards Gu Xiao.
"Sir, this kid dared to hurt me, please sir, seek justice for me."
When all the attendants saw that their young master respected this man very much, they did not dare to make any mistake, so they lowered their swords and stood aside.
When the man saw the young master bowing to him, he bowed slightly in return, then without looking at the young master, he walked straight past him and headed towards the young man surrounded by the attendants.
He walked next to the young man, looked at the young man, and said to the young man: "Young man, can you tell me your name?"
Gu Xiao saw that this man was in high spirits and had the demeanor of a celebrity in his gestures. He immediately cupped his fists and saluted and said, "My surname is Mu, and my name is one word each."
"Mu Yi, this name is quite unique. Are you also here for the He family's arena?" the man asked again.
Gu Xiao only felt that this man's words were simply superfluous questions. If he hadn't come here for Shen Lei, why did he come to Hejiabao? And seeing him waving his feather fan lightly in this cold winter month was really weird.
Strange, but it is somewhat similar to Shangguan Renyan.
However, seeing that he had just spoken to save him, Gu Xiao still respectfully replied: "Yes, I am indeed here to participate in the ring."
The man shook his feather fan, and his eyes seemed to see through Gu Xiao. He glanced back and forth at the young man's face. After a moment, he withdrew his gaze, shook his fan and said with a smile: "It's because of your skill in breaking the Qiushui Palm just now.
There is no need to come back to this He family arena to prove yourself."
At this point, the man suddenly changed the topic and said coldly: "He Zhidao and I have been close friends for many years. No matter what you ask for this time, just be content. If it ruins my old friend's birthday,
, but don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Gu Xiao didn't expect that this man had just opened his mouth to save him, but when the conversation changed, he actually uttered threatening words. He couldn't help but sneered: "Junior, I don't know why you said this, but junior..."
Before Gu Xiao finished speaking, he saw this man waving the feather fan in his hand and turning around to leave. When leaving, he said to the young master who was holding his nose not far away: "The injury is not a problem, just let me go. If it is where
The family castle has been ruined, and your father will come to me again to hold me accountable."
When the young master heard what this man said, he glanced at Gu Xiao fiercely, and as if he was unwilling to accept it, he shouted to the attendants standing with swords in the field: "Didn't you hear the master's order? Take it, take it all.
, follow me into the castle."
Gu Xiao sneered and was about to speak, but he was held tightly by the three He Bufan brothers beside him. He repeatedly signaled with his eyes that Gu Xiao should not bother him any more.
Looking at the three He Bufan brothers beside him who shook their heads sincerely, Gu Xiao finally gave up on trying to entangle them again and allowed the man with the feather fan to take the young master and his group away.
Young Master looked at Gu Xiao who was not far away and was being blocked by He Bufan and others. He said bitterly "We'll see" and then followed the man with the feather fan into Hejiabao.
After passing through the corridors, the young man seemed to have not recovered from the pain of being beaten just now. He said to the man with a feather fan walking in front: "Sir, why didn't you let us teach that kid a lesson just now?"
"You still dare to make such nonsense. If I hadn't gotten the news and arrived in time, I'm afraid you would have suffered the loss." The man with the feather fan said coldly, looking at the young master's dissatisfied look.
"He was just lucky. With my skills as a water sword sect, how could I easily lose to a mountain villager like him?" Young Master seemed dissatisfied.
"You are not as good as that young man in terms of martial arts, physical skills, or experience in fighting the enemy. If we continue to fight, you will only suffer. Also, your father has passed down a handwritten letter to me, asking me to take good care of you.
, You will stay in my garden tonight and don’t go anywhere. Later in the evening, I will go to see the ancestor of the He family. He has prepared a jade tablet for you." The man with the feather fan said calmly.
"Sir, has my father told you? This time, I will take this opportunity to break into the top rankings. In this case, I will have a chance at this year's divorce party..."
The young master's words were interrupted when the man with the feather fan raised his hand. He glanced at the attendant behind the young master. The man with the feather fan stopped and looked up. He saw that he had arrived in front of a path gate.
Looking inwards from the moon gate, one can vaguely see the gallery room surrounded by springs and the colorfully painted eaves. Under this first night, there is an quaint and tranquil atmosphere, while above the moon gate there are three freehand calligraphy written on it.
"Qingqiu Garden."
——
However, Gu Xiao was curious and asked He Bufan, "Who is this person? He spoke so rudely. It was obviously the young master who provoked me first. If Brother He hadn't stopped me, I would have come forward to ask for an explanation."
"Feather fan and silk scarf, the immortal official comes to the world, and he claims to be writing in the Chongyang Festival." Jiang Ningxue's cold voice came from behind a few people.
Gu Xiao was shocked: "You mean, he is..."
He Bufan took over the words: "The girl is right, he is my ancestor's best friend, the most famous immortal, Mr. Chongyang."
There was really no place to look for, and it took no effort to get it. Gu Xiao couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised. It turned out that he was Mr. Chongyang. As long as he was willing to tell, he would naturally be able to find the whereabouts of Murong Gu, and Lin'er and Li
The whereabouts of Uncle, Brother Tianya and others.
Jiang Ningxue saw Gu Xiao's expression in her eyes, and naturally guessed what he was thinking, and immediately said: "The young master you offended just now is the only son of Shui Qianyue, an old friend of Chongyang Bi, the leader of Rushui Sword Sect.
Shui Canglan, if you visit him again now, do you think he will tell you?"
Although they didn't know what the girl and the boy were talking about, He Bufan and the others heard from Mr. Chongyang that he mentioned that the boy "doesn't need to come to the He family arena to prove himself". Just this simple sentence, He Bufan and the others heard it from Mr. Chongyang.
In people's eyes, it is the supreme praise for young people.
Although my three brothers have gold, silver and bronze clothes, in the final analysis, they are not worthy of worship. In the eyes of the He family, the three of them are just servants.
Even if this young man offended the young master next to Mr. Chongyang, in He Bufan's view, providing help in times of need is more memorable than adding icing on the cake.
Even if this young man cannot become a worshiper of the He family because of this incident, with the skills and age he has just shown, he will surely become a well-known figure on the top list sooner or later, so it would be better to just worship under his sect.
Having made up his mind, He Bufan said to the young man: "Little brother, although I don't know why you want to find Mr. Chongyang, maybe I have a way to make your wish come true."
Gu Xiao was thinking about how he could find out the whereabouts of Murong Gu from Chongyang's pen. Hearing what He Bufan said, he immediately said, "Brother He, do you have any ideas?"
He Bufan said: "Yes, there is, but it depends on how capable the young hero is."
"Brother He, what do you say?" Gu Xiao asked.
"Every year in the He family arena, after the top three are determined, let the top three choose one of them to enshrine and fight. If the top three win, the chosen person will take the place of enshrinement, and will also replace this person's ranking on the Lingjue list. If
If the worship is successful, the top three people will become gold, silver and bronze-clad guardians like our brothers. In addition to these rules, there is another one. Whether it is worship or guardianship, as long as it can be done, the ancestors of the He family will comply.
If you make any arbitrary promise to this person, whether it is gold, silver, treasures or martial arts secrets, the He family will definitely do their best."
"Oh, what is it that makes the He family make such a promise?"
Not only Gu Xiao, but also Jiang Ningxue heard about this for the first time, and there was a hint of curiosity in her cold eyes.
"It's no wonder that you two are curious. My three brothers also accidentally learned about this matter after they joined the He family." Since He Bufan was determined to show his kindness to this young man, he simply turned in the information.
He Bufan looked around mysteriously and lowered his voice to the young man, "Have you ever heard of a liger?"
"I've heard of lions, and I've heard of tigers, but this is the first time I've heard of ligers." Gu Xiao didn't know what the connection between the ancestor of the He family's promise and the ligers was.
He Bufan said: "There are rumors that there was an immortal who came to the world and traveled around the world for many years. When passing by a city, he got the decree from heaven, saying that there was an invasion of evil spirits, and ordered him to return quickly. The immortal was shocked when he heard this, and he even wanted to
Returning to heaven, I really didn’t expect him to sit on the immortal lion, but he was greedy for the prosperity of the world and refused to leave.”
"Unfortunately, the immortal's magical power was too strong to tolerate the immortal lion, so the immortal lion thought of a way. The next day, the immortal activated the magic circle, opened the heavenly steps, and walked on the immortal road, hoping to return to the sky to fight against the evil devil.
Stepping on the immortal road and closing the formation, the immortal lion next to him suddenly became angry, biting through the immortal steps, and jumped down. Although the immortal was angry with his mount and left without permission, he was still in danger because he was needed by Jiuxiao.
It left, thinking that it would wait until the day when all the evil spirits in the Nine Heavens were eliminated, and then come back to collect this evil obstacle."
"But I didn't expect that when the immortal left and died in the battle, the immortal lion became an ownerless thing after he sat down. From then on, he lived freely in the world. He even fell in love with a mortal female tiger and gave birth to a son of a liger, which was called a liger beast.
, and this liger beast is said to have some immortal power, and is invincible to many ferocious beasts in the world. If you can subdue this beast, it will be like having a peerless master at your side."
Gu Xiao and Jiang Ningxue looked at each other in confusion, as if they had thought of something. Gu Xiao asked He Bufan, "Could it be that this liger beast..."
"Young hero's idea is correct. According to legend, the place where the immortals returned to Jiuxiao was in Zangbei, and it is said that this liger lived in the same mountain where Hejiabao is located." He Bufan affirmed.
"I see. No wonder the He family holds competitions every year and recruits martial arts masters. I'm afraid it's just a cover-up." Gu Xiao muttered to himself.
"To be honest, young hero, the ancestors of the He family once made a rule. Anyone who enters the He family's worship or nursing home, as long as they can find the whereabouts of a liger in this mountain and surrender it, no matter what conditions are imposed, the He family will do it.
I am fully satisfied, and every year after the competition, the He family will send a large number of people to the back mountain." He Bufan looked at the young man and said word by word.
At the same time, in the secluded small room in the He family's villa, the ancestor of the He family was stroking He Zhong's head in the wooden box and murmuring to himself.
"Zhong'er, dad will never let you die in vain. Your spirit in heaven will also bless your father and your brother, so that we can successfully complete the tasks assigned by the master...and your eldest brother, he is quite shrewd and feels that everything is up to him.
Within his plan... This man is ungrateful. My father spared his life back then, but I didn't expect him to be so ungrateful."
After saying this, the ancestor of the He family stood up with a stick, groped for a long time in his arms, took out something, put it into the wooden box containing He Zhong's head, and then slowly walked out of the door.
The lights in this room flickered on and off, reflecting on the box containing the human head, and it was only then that we could see what the ancestor just put in the box.
It was an ordinary chess piece, with the bright red word "Che" reflected in the grooves of the wood grain, as eye-catching as human blood.
"The long chariot is majestic, the vanguard in the south and north battles, and the thousands of miles of boundary rivers are connected."
The old voice of the ancestor of the He family disappeared into the room and gradually disappeared along with the old man's back.
