As night falls, the entire city is shrouded in leaden night.
The lights in the city are like dragons and bright as day.
There were faint sounds of hustle and bustle coming from the city.
Outside the city separated by a wall, there was a dark and cold atmosphere as dark as night.
Facing the man in gray robe who bowed in greeting, Su Yi only smiled and said, "Should Your Excellency tell you your origin first?"
The gray-robed man thought for a while and said: "My alias is 'She Dou'. I come from the Southern Land Divine Continent and am a casual cultivator. The two people in the distance are my friends. The guy carrying the sword box on his back has the Taoist name 'Qing Chong'.
The sick old guy is nicknamed 'Old Poisonous Bug'."
As he said that, the man in gray robe who called himself She Dou raised his eyes and looked at Su Yi, "Are you satisfied with this, fellow Taoist?"
Su Yi said: "They are all 'aliases'?"
She Dou's eyes flashed with an unclear meaning, and he nodded: "Exactly."
Su Yi said: "I understand, but I don't want to cause any trouble, and I don't want to have any trouble with you. Let's go to each other on the same road, and we won't mention our names."
After that, he took the black dog back along the original road.
She Dou, who was blocking the way, frowned.
The old man in black, who was called "Old Poisonous Chong", and the young man in sackcloth, who was called "Qing Chong", both looked at She Dou subconsciously.
She Dou was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head slightly.
It wasn't until Su Yi and Black Dog walked away that She Dou smiled and said, "We are destined to meet each other. Please take care of yourself, both of you."
Su Yi didn't even look back and said, "It's enough for each of you to cherish each other."
The sound was still echoing, and the figures of him and the black dog had disappeared into the night in the distance.
"Why didn't you stop them?"
The sickly old man in black stepped forward, his face gloomy.
She Dou Youyou said: "Don't worry, as long as they are still in Wendao City, they are destined to be unable to escape from our grasp."
"That's not like your style."
The young man in sackcloth carrying the sword box came over and looked directly at She Dou, "Are you scared?"
She Dou frowned, "Be polite, what do you mean by fear? I just don't want to capsize in the gutter!"
The boy in sackcloth still stared at She Dou, "I hope you are right."
She Dou sighed: "Be careful. Do you think our opponents this time are ordinary characters who can be easily killed?"
At this time, the old man in black couldn't help but said: "So, you have confirmed that that guy is the reincarnation of the swordsman?"
swordsman!
Just mentioning this title made She Dou and Mai Yi subconsciously narrow their eyes.
"It must be him."
She Dou's face became gloomy in the night, and his tone became low, "As early as when they arrived, I could feel the familiar atmosphere. And since they found this section of the city wall before, I have completely concluded that
, he must be that Su Yi!"
As he spoke, She Dou shifted his gaze and looked at that section of the city wall again, "After all, Dingdao Zhe said that as long as Su Yi comes to ask questions about the city, he will definitely be curious about the handwriting he left on the city wall and want to learn from the handwriting.
I feel the aura of His Great Dao back then."
"And just now, that guy has found this place!"
After listening to She Dou's analysis, the old man in black just asked: "Then what are you going to do next?"
She Dou smiled and said: "How about killing someone with a borrowed knife and catching a turtle in an urn?"
The old man in black said: "Whose sword can I borrow?"
She Dou said softly: "Don't forget, the swordsman forged a lot of grudges when he asked at Fengtiantai."
The young man in sackcloth said with a gloomy face: "It's just a reincarnation, why bother?"
She Dou suddenly took action, grabbed the Mai Yi boy's neck, and lifted his whole body into the air!
"If I hadn't tried my best to save you back then, you would have died at the hands of the swordsman. Isn't this a lesson enough?"
There seemed to be a sea of fire surging deep in She Dou's pupils, as if it wanted to choose someone to devour.
The expression on the young man's face changed and he lowered his head, as if he did not dare to look at She Dou.
boom!
She Dou threw the Mai Yi boy out, "Don't let it happen again, otherwise, since I can save your life, I can also take it back myself!"
The boy in linen pursed his lips and said nothing.
She Dou thought to himself and said: "Dingdao Master sent us a message, telling us that Su Yi will definitely come to ask about the city. Doesn't he want to use us as swordsmen?"
"Of course, this is a conspiracy. Even if we know that Dingdao just wants us to fight Su Yi, we still have to thank him for his guidance, right?"
"Now that Su Yi has appeared, why should we be anxious?"
She Dou said and subconsciously touched his neck.
A long time ago, during the years when the swordsman asked questions at Fengtiantai, he had fought with the swordsman on the road.
In the end, he was defeated and was slashed on the neck by the swordsman, and his head was cut off.
Although he survived in the end, the sword became a shadow in She Dou's heart that cannot be erased to this day.
What makes She Dou feel embarrassed is that after the battle that year, it caused a sensation in the Hongmeng Forbidden Territory. Many people believed that it was a miracle and an incredible feat that She Dou could survive from the swordsman.
This is enough to prove how powerful She Dou is.
??????????.??????
She Dou certainly knew that these remarks were not an insult at all. After all, there were indeed very few characters who could truly survive the swordsman in the Hongmeng Forbidden Territory.
But She Dou felt very unhappy in his heart.
How can you be brave if you become a defeated general?
"If it goes according to what you said, why didn't we choose to take action during the battle for Fengtian?"
The old man in black said solemnly.
She Dou shook his head: "At that time, there will be too many people who want to kill Su Yi, and there will be too many variables. Instead of doing this, it is better to be one step ahead and march in danger in the Wendao City! Let's have a showdown with him!"
After a pause, She Dou's eyes became subtle, "Have you ever noticed that Su Yi doesn't seem to recognize our identities at all!"
The old man in black and the boy in linen looked at each other with strange expressions.
"It seems that Dingdao Master did not lie to us. Su Yi today is not the swordsman he was back then and has no idea who we are."
She Dou said, "If there is no intention, then this is our opportunity!"
The night is getting darker, and the lights in Wendao City are so bright that the night sky is bright, like a nightless sky.
"Let's go."
She Dou planned to take action immediately and arrange this killing situation of "killing someone with a borrowed knife and catching a turtle in the jar".
But before leaving, the young man in sackcloth couldn't help but ask, "Brother Dao, can you see what writings the Master of Dao left on that wall?"
She Dou shook his head: "The path of the one who determines the way has long been invisible, just like the way of heaven, so we call him 'him'. Any traces he left in the world have long since disappeared. Unless you have the same path as him,
Otherwise, no one would be able to decipher the writings He left on the city wall."
As he spoke, She Dou couldn't help but sigh, "Most of us old guys left our names on the Fengtian Platform earlier than those who determined the path, and our respective paths are also the pinnacle of the same realm. Unfortunately, we are still determined in the end.
The person came from behind and made him a step higher. Thinking about it, it really makes people feel uncomfortable."
As they spoke, they were already walking away.
The young man in sackcloth asked, "Then do you think Su Yi saw the handwriting left on the city wall by the one who determined the way?"
She Dou was startled, and then said in an unquestionable tone, "Impossible! He must be like us, he can only sense the invisible aura, but cannot see through the handwriting!"
The young man in sackcloth thought for a moment and then nodded.
Indeed, if anyone in this world could see through the traces left by those who have determined the way, they would probably have the strength to compete with those who have determined the way.
But Su Yi is obviously not this kind of person!
…
Ask about the city.
The bustling streets are brightly lit and there are figures of ascetics everywhere.
Various stalls with different characteristics are displayed in every corner of the streets and alleys, attracting the attention of people coming and going.
Everyone who practices Taoism has the resources for cultivation that they need.
And today, Daodao City has gathered monks from all over the world, and they have brought rare treasures from all over the world to trade, and everyone gets what they need. Daodao City has also become extremely lively and prosperous, as if it is
Like a large square market.
Even some of the ancestors were patrolling in front of many stalls, trying to pick out some treasures that suited their liking.
Su Yi and Black Dog were wandering around the city at the moment.
"Father, I suspect that we have been targeted by those three sneaky guys!"
Black Dog was worried, "I can feel that none of those three guys are soft persimmons, they are all ruthless scoundrels who eat people without spitting out their bones!"
Su Yi hummed and said, "It's no surprise that they have probably seen through my identity already. Since they know who I am, they still dare to target us. This time's opponent... is certainly not an ordinary person."
Black Dog's heart tightened, "Then should we make some preparations in advance? Or simply leave Wendao City directly?"
Su Yi couldn't help but laugh and joked, "You have always been so bold, when did you become so cautious?"
Black Dog said seriously: "My child is sharing the worries of his adoptive father!"
Su Yi shook his head slightly, "You don't need to pay attention to this. In the next few days, you only need to help me search for the ancestral spirit roots."
As he spoke, the scene he had seen in front of that section of city wall came to mind.
There are many writings engraved on that section of the city wall, but they were not left by those who determined the way.
But under Su Yi's careful sensing, he discovered a line of invisible handwriting on that section of the city wall.
That line of writing is located at the bottom of the city wall, bordering the earth, and its location is also very inconspicuous.
But when I looked at it, I couldn't find anything. It was completely empty. Even if it was the existence of the ultimate realm, I couldn't even hope to find it.
The reason is very simple, that line of writing is as invisible as the way of heaven!
At the beginning, Su Yi couldn't see through it. Even if he used various methods, he could only sense some hidden auras.
It was not until the end, when he had used all the power of his Daoxing and the Nine Hell Sword to the extreme, that he finally got a glimpse of the content through the hidden aura of the line of writing.
There is only one sentence written on it:
"If my body were me, I should be free in life and death!"
