Qin Xiao thought to himself that Yaoshi Shen was indeed the first disciple of Sword Valley, and he had judged the source of his own internal energy so accurately. He did not hide it this time: "It's the Ancient Intention and Qi Jue."
"That's right." Medicine Master Shen nodded slightly: "Most of the internal skills and mental methods in this world come from Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism. The internal skills and mental methods of the Jiangu sect actually come from the Taoist sect. In the final analysis, they come from the Taoist sect. Shuoyuan is very similar to the Taigu Yiqi Jue. The Taigu Yiqi Jue is one of the three treasures of Taoism and has existed in the world for a long time. It can even be said that the internal strength of Sword Valley comes from the Taigu Yiqi Jue."
Qin Xiao was quite surprised, thinking that the [Ancient Intention and Qi Jue] seemed to be more mysterious than he thought.
"However, although they come from the same source, there are still slight differences." Yaoshi Shen said: "Fortunately, I have studied Chixin Sword Art for many years and know it well. What I teach you is no longer the original formula, but a slight modification. A Taoist technique that is more suitable for you. My little disciple, with your current state, you still cannot do it if you want to send and receive the Red Heart Sword Technique freely. However, if you practice diligently and study hard, you can not only pass on this sword technique, but also In times of crisis, I can save your life."
Qin Xiao sighed: "Thank you Master for teaching me this skill, but this swordsmanship is really profound and cannot be mastered in a short time."
"Don't be too hasty in your pursuit of quick success." Yaoshi Shen said: "Once you understand it, you will suddenly understand it. This sword technique does not require close combat. If you encounter an inferior player who is higher than you, you can use this to restrain the opponent and find a way to escape. Opportunity. However, it is not easy to survive when meeting top experts."
Qin Xiao nodded and then asked: "Master, when did you enter the customs? Did you come to Hangzhou specifically to assassinate Xiahou Ning?"
"It's been a while since I entered the customs." Pharmacist Shen said with a faint smile: "After I entered the customs, I went to Kyoto. It happened that Xia Houning led the Shence Army to the south of the Yangtze River, so I followed him."
"So the master has been preparing to kill Xiahou Ning for a long time?" Qin Xiao frowned and said: "Master, I am your apprentice, and I can also be regarded as a disciple of Jiangu. What grudge does our Jiangu have with Xiahou Ning that you have to take action personally? "
Pharmacist Shen looked outside the woodshed, looking at the pouring rain, thoughtfully, and said nothing.
"Master, did you really come to the Taoist temple to kill people and silence them?" Seeing that he didn't speak, Qin Xiao hesitated for a moment and finally said: "With your strength, you could have killed Chen Xi at that time, so why did you let him escape back to the restaurant? ?”
Pharmacist Shen smiled faintly and said: "You are right. Although the eunuch is not weak in skills, if I want to kill him, there is no way he can survive." He shook his head and said: "It has not been long since I broke through to the Great Heaven Realm. I didn't control the heat well and almost beat him to death. I came here this time just to see if he could survive. If he really dies, that's not what I want in my heart."
Qin Xiao was even more surprised and asked doubtfully: "You never thought of killing him from the beginning?"
"If I really kill him, how can I let the Xiahou family know that it was a Jiangu disciple who stabbed Xiahou Ning to death?" Pharmacist Shen sneered: "But I can't let the eunuch escape unscathed, otherwise it will make people angry. I’m suspicious, thinking that someone is deliberately trying to frame Jian Gu.”
Qin Xiao was a little confused when he heard it. He raised his hand and touched his head, and said with a wry smile: "Master, why can't I understand what you said?"
"A child cannot be taught." Yaoshi Shen glanced at him: "That eunuch fought with me. I deliberately concealed it, but also deliberately revealed Jiangu's kung fu, so eunuch Chen must know that the assassin is a disciple of Jiangu. Since I am an assassin , you should try your best to conceal your identity. The eunuch knows my skills, so it is reasonable for me to kill him and silence him. If I let him return safely, it would be a bit abnormal."
Qin Xiao frowned and said: "You mean you didn't really want to hide your identity, but you deliberately let Chen Xi go and let him wake up and tell him that it was a disciple of Sword Valley who assassinated Xia Houning?"
"That's right." Pharmacist Shen said, "That's what it means."
Qin Xiao was even more confused. He straightened his thoughts and said: "Master disguised himself to assassinate Xia Houning. Of course he didn't want people to see your true face, but he deliberately let Chen Xi go because he wanted him to reveal the assassin's true identity... ..., Master, were you drunk earlier? This matter is inconsistent and makes no sense at all."
"What's wrong?" Pharmacist Shen yawned: "I concealed my identity because I pretended not to let them know who the assassin was. I let the eunuch go because I wanted him to tell me that I am a disciple of Sword Valley. It is reasonable."
"So, you assassinated Xiahou Ning because you wanted to demonstrate to the Xiahou family?" Qin Xiao said: "You deliberately let the Xiahou family know that Jiangu is seeking revenge on them?"
Pharmacist Shen chuckled and said: "Yes, that's what I meant. I didn't control the strength well at the time and hit too hard. I was really worried about beating Eunuch Chen to death. Fortunately, you found this place. The Taoist nun is actually good at medical skills and can bring the dead back to life. , this helped me a lot.”
"Master, don't you know that Xiahou Ning is the eldest son and grandson of the Xiahou family, and the Xiahou family even thought about letting this person inherit the throne." Qin Xiao looked solemn: "Not only does the Xiahou family have high hopes for him, but even the emperor has high hopes for him. He also loves him very much. If you kill him now and let the Xiahou family and the emperor know that the murderer is Jian Gu, have you thought about the consequences?"
Pharmacist Shen smiled and said, "I have thought about it. Demon Queen Xiahou and the monsters of the Xiahou family will naturally be frightened and angry. They will definitely avenge Xiahou Ning and then take revenge on Sword Valley."
"So, if you know that the matter is exposed, they will definitely be cruel to Jiangu?" Qin Xiao said in surprise: "Since you know, why do you do this? With your strength, even if you want to kill Xiahou Ning, you want to hide it The true identity is not difficult either.”
Pharmacist Shen smiled faintly and said: "Cui Jingjia deceived his master to destroy his ancestors, occupied Sword Valley, and recruited evil demons to enter the valley. Today's Sword Valley is no longer the paradise it once was." He glanced at Qin Xiao and continued: "Cui Jingjia has many gang members, and he himself He had already broken through to the Great Heaven Realm a few years ago, and if I join forces with your little sister-in-law, I am no match for him, but I can’t just watch Sword Valley’s reputation be ruined by him, so I can only think of other ways.”
"You mean you want to borrow a knife to kill people?" Qin Xiao frowned and said, "You want to use the Xiahou family to deal with Jiangu?"
"The Xiahou family is the largest family today, and they control the government. Their strength is naturally not comparable to that of Jiangu." A strange smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yaoshi's mouth: "Xiahou Ning is dead, so they will naturally mobilize all their forces to destroy Cui Jingjia. Just help me get rid of the rebellion in Sword Valley."
Qin Xiao was shocked.
In his impression, Yaoshi Shen was slovenly and undisciplined, but he was by no means a bad person. However, using the Xiahou family to destroy Sword Valley was a really cruel move.
But for some reason, although Yaoshi Shen has told the whole story, Qin Xiao is full of doubts about this explanation.
The reason is simple.
Pharmacist Shen himself is also a disciple of Jiangu.
It can be heard from his tone that he is full of awe for the master of Sword Valley. As the first disciple of Sword Valley, he is naturally full of affection for Sword Valley.
Qin Xiao knew that Pharmacist Shen and Cui Jingjia had conflicts, and the two sides were fighting for the Purple Wood Box. However, Qin Xiao did not believe that Pharmacist Shen would divert trouble to the west by dealing with Cui Jingjia and lead the Xiahou family's knife to Sword Valley.
Once the Xiahou family takes action, it will definitely pose a great threat to Sword Valley, and it is even possible to annihilate Sword Valley.
Every flower and grass in Sword Valley is familiar to Pharmacist Shen. It can be said to be the hometown of Pharmacist Shen and his little aunt. It is their home. It is hard for Qin Xiao to believe that Pharmacist Shen would use the Xiahou family to destroy his home. .
But Pharmacist Shen’s explanation is not impossible.
If Pharmacist Shen really hates Cui Jingjia, but he is unable to get rid of Cui Jingjia, it is not unreasonable to use external forces to eradicate his archenemy.
"Does Junior Sister know that you are doing this?" Qin Xiao asked.
Pharmacist Shen shook his head and said, "Why should others know what I am doing?"
"There are six major disciples in Jiangu. You have a rift with Cui Jingjia, but the other people have no grudges against you." Qin Xiao said slowly: "Jiangu is also their home. Master, you use the Xiahou family to deal with Jiangu. If Have you ever thought about the consequences if Junior Senior Aunt and the others find out? I know Junior Senior Aunt, although she doesn’t like Cui Jingjia, but in her opinion, the conflict between you is just Jian Gu’s own conflict, and there is no need for outsiders to intervene. .You brought the Xiahou family in, and even wanted to destroy Sword Valley. Once the young aunt and several other uncles know about this, I believe they will rush over to protect Sword Valley. In this way, you will not only put them in danger Among them, they will even regard it as rebellion in Sword Valley."
Pharmacist Shen looked at the heavy rain outside with a calm expression and said nothing.
"Master is the first disciple of Sword Valley. Although my junior aunt always says bad things about you, in her heart, she still has respect for you." Qin Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "Once you lead the wolf into the house, my junior aunt and other masters will Uncle will naturally sever all ties with you. Master, in order to get rid of Cui Jingjia, everyone regards Jiangu as a traitor. Do you really want to do this?"
Qin Xiao turned to look at Qin Xiao with stern eyes. After a moment, he said: "You don't have to worry about these things. But there is one thing you can help me with."
"What?"
"When the eunuch wakes up, ask him about the appearance of the assassin." Yaoshi Shen said slowly: "As soon as he mentions the word "Jiangu", you will immediately write a note and send it to Kyoto to tell the people in Kyoto It proves that the murderer who assassinated Xiahou Ning came from Jiangu. You are an official of Dali Temple and you came from Kyoto. As long as you tell me this, the Xiahou family will be sure that it was a disciple of Jiangu who committed the murder." He raised his hand and patted Qin Xiao on the shoulder. , said softly: "From now on, as long as you insist that this case is committed by Jiangu's disciples, it will be equivalent to doing the master a great favor, and the master will remember your kindness."
Qin Xiao stared into Yaoshi Shen's eyes and said word by word: "Can you tell me the truth, why are you doing this?"
"You don't believe my explanation?" Shen Yaoshi frowned.
Qin Xiao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I really don't believe that you would destroy Sword Valley for personal grudges. You would rather become a Sword Valley traitor."
Pharmacist Shen stood up slowly and walked outside the woodshed. He put one hand behind his back and let the heavy rain pour on him. After a long time, he did not look back. He just said lightly: "Those people in Kyoto are worse than you think." Be cunning, even if you don't take the initiative to prove it, they will find out that it is the disciples of Jian Valley. If you are not willing to help me, I will not force you." After a pause, he said: "The True Sword of Red Heart is the secret skill of Jian Valley. There are people in Kyoto who know this sword technique, so don’t reveal it easily unless you have to. If one day you really master this sword and use it, you must kill your opponent and don’t let him have the chance to tell others. , otherwise you may be the one who dies."
Qin Xiao also stood up and listened to Yaoshi Shen continue: "The Xiahou family is always thinking about catching all the disciples of Sword Valley, so if they know that you have learned the martial arts of Sword Valley, or even suspect that you are from Sword Valley, you will Disaster is coming."
Qin Xiao suddenly asked: "How did the emperor kill the Sword God? Is your purpose of doing this because of the Sword God?"
As soon as these words came out, Pharmacist Shen suddenly turned around, but Qin Xiao saw that Pharmacist Shen, who had always been slovenly and lazy, was feeling cold all over his body at this moment. His eyes were as sharp as two sharp blades, shocking people. Soul.
