The gatherings and separations of people in the world are all accidental encounters. They gather in a hurry and leave in a hurry.
Li Xiao was really drunk this time, but Vulture didn't drink much, so when Li Xiao woke up, Vulture had already left for a long time. He left a sword behind when he left.
Shi Yu had woken up long ago and sat next to Li Xiao without saying a word.
Li Xiao didn't ask where the vulture was going. He threw the sword left by the vulture to Shi Yu and said, "This is yours too."
The two swords given by Vulture are of the same quality. They are precious swords, but not famous swords.
There is a snow-white scabbard, the sword body is as smooth as a mirror, and the hilt is engraved with the three characters "Han Chengjun" in ancient seal script. The other cyan scabbard is inlaid with seven large pearls, and the hilt is tied with a cyan sword tassel.
Shi Yu silently named the two swords. The white sword whose real name was Han Chengjun was called 'Frostfall' and the green sword was called 'Jingzhe'.
The vulture was very kind this time and paid all the bills for the drinks and hotel before leaving.
Li Xiao also left the inn with Shi Yu.
When leaving the inn, Li Xiao told Shi Yu that he should walk back to Duanhun Cliff this time slowly. Shi Yu would have to solve any troubles along the way by himself. He would only take action when he encountered something he couldn't handle. Only when it was safe to Duanhun Cliff
Only in Hun Ya can he teach Shi Yu how to practice swordsmanship.
Shi Yu just agreed without asking why. Firstly, he felt that Li Xiao had his own reasons for doing this, and secondly, he also wanted to experience it.
Duanhun Cliff is located in the hinterland of Daxia Kingdom, thousands of miles away from Yunmeng City, and it takes ten days to walk without stopping. So the two of them are not in a hurry.
After leaving Yunmeng City and heading north, you have to climb a large mountain. This mountain is the Nanyue of the Jinpan Kingdom, a subsidiary country of Daxia. The name of the mountain is Kunwu. It is the most magnificent mountain in the Jinpan Kingdom. After passing Kunwu Mountain, there is a small town.
, can be used for rest.
There are only rugged paths on the mountain, which are difficult to walk, and there are all kinds of weird stories about gods and ghosts. Ordinary people would naturally avoid them, but Li Xiao and Shi Yu chose to climb the mountain.
When Li Xiao left Yunmeng City, he bought a jug of wine and put it in a wine bag. He held the sword in one hand and the wine bag in the other, drinking while walking, feeling content and very chic.
Shi Yu followed Li Xiao closely, with both swords slanted behind his shoulders, looking more like a knight-errant traveling in the world.
He didn't have too many worries during this journey to Soul-Desolating Cliff.
Shi Yu's swordsmanship is actually not bad, but it is a little inferior compared to other geniuses of the same age. It is more than enough against ordinary people in the world, but it is still not enough in the eyes of people like Li Xiao.
As for when he arrived at Duanhun Cliff, whether Li Xiao killed him with one sword or taught him to practice swordsmanship was acceptable to him. He wouldn't resent him if he killed him with one sword. Of course it would be better if he could teach him to practice swordsmanship. Not entirely
It was to fight with Li Xiao, and there was something else he wanted to do more at the moment.
Return to the Nine Swords Gate and retrieve the master's sword. It is easier than asking Li Xiao about the sword.
I walked along the path of Kunwu Mountain from early morning to sunset before reaching the top of the mountain. The most difficult uphill road was finished, and then came the relatively easy downhill road.
But at this time, dark clouds were coming over the sky and snowflakes were falling.
Li Xiao looked up at the sky and said, "This snow will come very quickly and very hard."
Shi Yu also looked at the sky and said nothing.
Li Xiao took a sip of wine and continued on his way.
Sure enough, as Li Xiao said, the snow is getting heavier and heavier. Walking is difficult if you can't walk more than two miles, and the road is downhill, making it easier to slip.
Li Xiao said: "We have to find a place to take shelter."
Shi Yu nodded in agreement.
The two of them walked forward in the wind and snow until night fell.
Shi Yu suddenly stopped, pointed into the darkness, and said, "There are houses there."
He was a little surprised that there was a house on this barren mountain. He wondered if he had seen it wrong.
Li Xiao looked intently in the direction pointed by Shi Yu, and sure enough, there was a corner of the eaves faintly visible in his eyes.
Li Xiao laughed loudly and said: "Let's go!"
The snow on the ground was already up to their ankles, and the whole family trudged forward in the snow. Finally, they arrived at the house a quarter of an hour later.
It turned out to be an abandoned temple.
One of the temple doors has collapsed, leaving only one door open.
Li Xiao said: "It should be the original mountain temple of this mountain. It is said that the new mountain temple is at the foot of the mountain, not far from the town, and the incense is more prosperous."
Shi Yu said: "It's all the same. No matter how prosperous the incense is, the mountain gods will never be able to see it."
Li Xiaoxiao asked: "How do you know?"
Shi Yu said: "There is no real god in the world."
Li Xiao said seriously: "Yes."
Shi Yu was stunned, looked at Li Xiao, and asked, "Is there really a mountain god?"
Li Xiao did not answer and entered the mountain temple first. Shi Yu had no choice but to follow.
The two of them each found a place to lie down. Li Xiao took off the wine bag from his waist and drank. After taking a sip, he threw it to Shi Yu.
Based on the experience last time, this time I just drank a small sip, and it tasted bitter in my throat. Shi Yu gave it back to Li Xiao and said, "It tastes really bad."
Li Xiao smiled and said: "The more you drink, the better it will be."
Shi Yu asked the previous question again: "Are there really gods in the world?"
Li Xiao took a sip of wine and said: "There are gods and ghosts, and more of them are monsters."
Shi Yu asked: "Is it really as scary as people say?"
In the dark night, Li Xiao's expression could not be seen clearly, but he could only be heard saying in a calm tone: "There are some powerful and terrifying ones, especially gods, even a small mountain god."
Shi Yu asked again: "You can't beat me either?"
Li Xiao said: "If we use our full strength, we can fight."
After a moment of silence, Shi Yu asked: "What about ghosts and demons?"
Li Xiao said: "Ghosts are nothing to be afraid of. The bull-nosed gang on the mountain have many tricks up their sleeves, but some big monsters are a bit difficult to deal with."
Shi Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Wouldn't it be a disaster if we meet him?"
Li Xiao smiled and said: "It's not that easy to come across. It's not easy to find those who are cultivators."
Shi Yu felt relieved.
It was late at night and the snow was still falling.
Shi Yu was not sleepy, and Li Xiao was already half drunk.
Shi Yu held two swords, "Shuangjiang" and "Jingzhe", in his arms. He suddenly thought of a question and asked, "Li Xiao, what is the name of your sword?"
Li Xiao said without thinking: "There is no name."
Shi Yu was surprised: "No name?"
Li Xiao said: "My sword has no name, but it has connected with my mind. It even likes killing people more than me. Sometimes even I can't control it."
Shi Yu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Can't you even control it?"
Li Xiao nodded and said: "It is stained with the blood of too many people."
Li Xiao didn't lie. When he drew his sword with all his strength, he could feel his sword trembling, as if he was shouting with excitement.
Shi Yu suddenly laughed and said, "Just call your sword 'Wu Ming'."
Li Xiaolue thought about it and said: "It's a good name, so let's call it Wuming."
Shi Yu was stunned, and he said it casually, but he didn't expect Li Xiao to take it seriously?
Li Xiao affirmed: "What a good name."
Shi Yu stopped talking and fell asleep holding his sword.
Outside the temple, snow has covered the steps, and the wind and snow are blowing violently.
While Shi Yu and Li Xiao were sleeping, strong wind blew down another door. Shi Yu woke up suddenly and turned around to see that the night against the white snow was no longer so dark.
Li Xiao was still sleeping soundly, snoring could be heard.
Shi Yu lost his sleep, so he stood up and walked out of the temple gate, standing under the eaves to watch the snow.
Suddenly, a subtle sound reached Shi Yu's ears, and he turned sideways. A silver needle rubbed across his cheek, and was inserted into the wall, making a buzzing sound.
"who?"
Shi Yu unsheathed his sword and stared at a dead tree.
A man in red clothes poked out from behind the tree, with his hair disheveled and his appearance unclear. Only bursts of eerie laughter could be heard.
"Pretend to be a ghost!" Shi Yu's eyes were cold, he dived through the snow, and when he got close to Hong Yi, he stabbed out with his sword.
The red dress suddenly disappeared.
Shi Yu frowned. He suddenly remembered what Li Xiao said, and his scalp suddenly went numb. He couldn't recite it like this, right?
"Kekeke..."
Hearing laughter came from behind, and Shi Yu quickly turned around and saw the female ghost in red sitting on the eaves, facing into the distance, humming a weird song.
"The younger sister is holding a wooden doll, the older brother is carrying a small basket, the father is holding a small axe, and the mother is living in the small basket. The doll's eyes are filled with tears. Why is she crying? The older brother is carrying a small basket..."
Shi Yu was horrified.
Li Xiao is still sleeping.
Shi Yu pointed his sword at Hongyi and asked in a trembling voice: "Are you a human or a ghost?"
In fact, he already had the answer in his mind.
Hongyi suddenly turned his head, screamed sharply, and his long hair suddenly spread out, finally revealing his true appearance.
Seeing the face in red, Shi Yu took a breath of air.
The bloody face revealed white bones, and one cheek had rotted away. There were no eyes, only a hole.
The female ghost in red screamed and rushed towards Shi Yu, arriving in an instant.
Shi Yu hurriedly retreated, slashed horizontally with his sword, and chopped off the female ghost's head.
The body of the female ghost suddenly fell to the ground, and there was no movement for a long time. Just when Shi Yu was about to step forward to check, the headless body suddenly stood up and grabbed Shi Yu.
Shi Yu rolled to dodge, but was stunned when he stood up. He encountered the rumored ghost wall!
Shi Yu looked at the unfamiliar environment around him and couldn't help but feel frightened. At this time, he was in an empty street, and there was a gust of cold wind. The doors of the shops on both sides of the street were closed tightly, and there were long red strips floating in the wind.
There was singing in the distance, and Shi Yu followed the sound.
He stopped in front of a house. The gate of the house was half open, and a red lantern hung on the door, shining with a faint light.
Shi Yu pushed the door open and was immediately horrified. He saw a flower garden in the courtyard. There were no flowers in the flower garden, but two heads!
One looks like a middle-aged man, with a beard. One looks like a young man, with a look of fear on his face.
The female ghost in red squatted in the flower bed, watering the two heads. Its head had returned to its body, just like when Shi Yu first saw it.
It didn't seem to notice Shi Yu's arrival.
There was a room in the courtyard. The door was half open, and the scene inside could be seen. After just one glance, Shi Yu didn't want to take a second look. Because there was also a human head on the table in the middle of the room!
It was a woman's head.
Different from the other two, this one has an incense burner in front with three sticks of incense.
Shi Yu took a deep breath, walked towards the female ghost with his sword in hand.
Now I don’t know where the female ghost took me. It’s hard to say whether Li Xiao can find her. He can only rely on himself. This chapter has been completed!
