"Hahaha-"
Lin Xiao looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, and the laughter echoed, as if it was ringing in everyone's ears.
"Brother Murong, Palace Master He, thank you for helping me open the last stone door. When I get the inner strength and mental method, I will come back and give you a reward!"
After all, we have to set foot on the chain bridge.
Murong Shen shouted: "Don't even think about it!"
He gasped and chased after him.
Shen Yi was the closest, and swung his sword to stop him.
Lin Xiao didn't even look at the two of them. He swung his robe sleeves and swelled up as if filled with true energy. Then he waved his palms and sent the two of them flying.
Murong Shen hit the wall, this time he really spit out a mouthful of blood.
Shen Yi's face was ashen and defeated, it was obvious that he was seriously injured.
He Tingzhou frowned slightly, and said: "It seems that Lin Zhuangzhu didn't show all his abilities in the last battle."
Lin Xiao didn't answer, just laughed and stepped on the chain bridge, walking towards the opposite side step by step.
Lin Yu called "Father" and followed.
He Tingzhou turned to Xu Feng and said, "Mr. Murong and Shen Yi are both injured, you should stay and take care of them."
Xu Feng asked: "Are you going too?"
He Tingzhou was still talking and laughing at this time, saying: "Always try to stop him."
"But Shen Yi said that you can't get angry anymore..."
"It doesn't matter, I chose this place as the place for the decisive battle, so naturally there are other deep meanings. Even if I can't kill Lin Xiao, I still have the means to keep him. Before that, you have to seize the opportunity to take other people out."
Xu Feng's throat tightened, and he asked, "What about you?"
He Tingzhou seemed not expecting him to ask this question, his eyes trembled, and finally said: "Xu Shaoxia, take care."
After speaking, he stepped forward and stepped onto the chain bridge.
This place is a hundred steps away from the god statue on the opposite side, and there is an abyss below, if you don't pay attention, you will fall to pieces. Fortunately, martial arts practitioners are not afraid of this danger, He Tingzhou tapped his toes, walked to the opposite side, and jumped onto an altar.
The altar extends from the center of the statue's eyebrows, and it should have been a place to worship the heavens. On both sides of the altar is a bright red eye. The eyes are inlaid with several pieces of rubies, which are extremely extravagant and also faintly suffused with treachery.
Lin Xiao had already climbed onto one of the arms of the statue, and was looking for the inner skills in the pile of jewels. When he saw He Tingzhou chasing him, he didn't take it to heart. He just laughed and said, "There are countless treasures here. Don't worry, the old man only takes one book of inner strength and heart method, Palace Master He won't be so stingy, and won't even allow this?"
He Tingzhou said: "How can the things in my Palace of Bliss be left to others to dispose of?"
"Oh? How are you doing then?"
"It's just been a battle, and the owner Lin and I are tied."
"Palace Master He didn't try your best just now, did you? But the old man can tell that you are too serious to be exhausted because of your internal injuries, so you dare not try your best."
He Tingzhou did not refute, and calmly said: "Master Lin's eyes are bright, he guessed right."
"Then why do you fight with the old man?"
"Do your best and obey the destiny."
"Okay!" Lin Xiao didn't look for the inner strength method anymore, stepped on his feet, and jumped back to the altar, "Since Palace Master He wants to die, I am naturally willing to fulfill it."
He Tingzhou had no weapons and was about to meet the enemy empty-handed, when suddenly he saw a flickering cold light, and a long sword was handed to him. He was stunned, then looked back, and saw Xu Feng standing behind him.
Xu Feng stuffed the sword into He Tingzhou's hand, and said to Lin Xiao, "Vendor Lin is a senior, so even if we fight two against one, it won't be too much of an advantage, right?"
Lin Xiaohun didn't care, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "It's the same if there are more."
He Tingzhou took the sword in his hand and said in a low voice, "What are you doing here? Go back quickly."
Holding a sword in his hand, Xu Feng straightened his back and said, "There is an abyss behind me, where can I go back?"
As he spoke, he took a step forward, stood side by side with He Tingzhou, raised his head and asked him: "Is it still the same swordsmanship?"
The eyes of the two met, as if they had returned to the underground palace at the bottom of the lake.
Thousands of arrows are fired, and there is nothing to fear.
He Tingzhou no longer persuaded him. He nodded slightly, hooked the tip of the sword on Xu Feng's sword, and swung the two swords together. "Follow me to move."
The last time when he joined hands to defend against the enemy, He Tingzhou still had to read out his sword moves one by one. Now the tacit understanding between the two is better than before. When He Tingzhou's sword moves, Xu Feng can cooperate with his moves. The swordsmanship they used is not extremely ingenious in itself, it's just that the two swords strike together, which can just make up for the flaws in each other's sword moves, and its power is far greater than that of one person.
Lin Xiao didn't see Xu Feng in his eyes at all, but when he received the move, he let out a "Hey", was forced to take two steps back, and praised: "Good swordsmanship!"
But he is so old and hot, he soon calmed down, he didn't compete with He Tingzhou and the others in moves, he only used his inner strength to strike out the palm, the wind of the palm whizzed, it was like cracking stones.
Xu Feng lacked internal energy, just being swept by the palm wind, he already felt unable to stand steadily. Fortunately, He Tingzhou saw the opportunity very quickly, and could always change his moves in time. The two of them relied on their exquisite swordsmanship, and they were not defeated for a while.
When the fight was over, He Tingzhou winked at Xu Feng, and Xu Feng slowed down, revealing a flaw.
Lin Xiao seized the opportunity and immediately slapped it.
With Xu Feng's martial arts, it is inevitable to avoid it. But He Tingzhou changed positions with him around his waist, at the same time he dropped his sword and changed his palm, facing Lin Xiao's palm.
The two palms intersected, and there was only a "bang", and the energy was overwhelming.
Lin Xiao's face was green, but He Tingzhou's face was pale and his blood was gone, he just called out: "Brother Feng!"
Xu Feng had been waiting for this moment.
He clenched the sword in his hand, and swung his wrist upwards. The sword light was like lightning, and it pierced Lin Xiao's chest—it was the sword technique he had practiced the most.
Although Lin Xiao saw the sword's movement clearly, he didn't expect him to strike so fast that he had no time to dodge it.
With a "chi", the tip of the sword pierced Lin Xiao's chest.
But it's just a stab.
Xu Feng's sword seemed to be piercing a wall as hard as an iron stone. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get any further.
Lin Xiao yelled loudly, his tongue burst into spring thunder, and the invisible inner strength rushed over mountains and seas. Xu Feng's hand trembled, and the sword in his hand was broken inch by inch.
Seeing this, He Tingzhou quickly withdrew his palm and rushed over to grab Xu Feng's wrist. Although he rescued the person, they both fell to the ground because they couldn't hold back their strength.
Lin Xiao didn't dare to underestimate the enemy at this time, his eyes sank, and he wanted to take their lives.
At this time, only two "clicks" and "clicks" were heard. I don't know which mechanism Lin Yu touched, and a pair of arms stretched out from behind the statue. These two arms are as white as jade like the hands of a beauty, and the fingers are even more vividly carved. One palm is empty, while the other holds a book.
"Father," Lin Yu said, looking up at those arms, "Is this the inner strength method you are looking for?"
"That's right! Your mother stole the martial arts secrets from here more than 20 years ago, and now, the remaining half has finally seen the light of day..."
Lin Xiao's eyes were red, and he could only see the volume of inner strength and mind in his eyes, but before he used his lightness kung fu to climb up, he still did not forget to tell Lin Yu, "Yu'er, let you take care of those two people."
"Yes, Dad."
Lin Yu responded lightly, and walked towards Xu Feng and the others with a sword in hand.
Xu Feng struggled to stand up, but the blood in his chest was churning, and he fell back quickly. He Tingzhou sat still, watching him approach step by step.
Lin Yu finally settled in front of the two of them, just like when he was in the Palace of Bliss, with a gentle smile, he said softly: "Palace Master, you and I have known each other for many years, so it can be regarded as a heart-to-heart relationship. Or is revenge more important?"
He Tingzhou said: "You bear the humiliation and are willing to be scolded by the world. You have been undercover in the Palace of Bliss for many years, isn't it just to avenge the murder of your mother? For you, revenge is of course the most important thing."
"That's right, as expected, the palace lord understands me best." Lin Yu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with a look of joy and sadness on his face, and said, "You must avenge your mother's murder, and the martial arts disaster... must be eliminated."
As he spoke, he slowly raised the sword in his hand.
Xu Feng shouted: "Wait a minute!"
He knew he was powerless to fight any more, so he didn't try to resist, but turned his head to look at He Tingzhou.
I didn't dare to look at it before.
Now that both of them are about to die, what's the point of taking another look
He Tingzhou's eyes were like water, and his handsome and unparalleled face was stained with a little dust, which was picked up by protecting Xu Feng earlier.
Xu Fengfeng couldn't help stretching out his hand, and slowly wiped away the dirt on his face. After wiping, he was about to withdraw his hand, but was caught by He Tingzhou.
Xu Feng struggled a few times, but did not break free.
He Tingzhou didn't speak, just looked at him and smiled.
Xu Feng's heart softened, so he held it too, closed his eyes and said, "Okay, Mr. Lin, let's do it."
He waited for a moment, and heard a scream in the darkness.
It was Lin Xiao's voice!
Xu Feng was taken aback. He opened his eyes and saw Lin Xiao standing on a high place, holding the volume of the inner strength method that he had dreamed of in his hands, but both palms turned black.
"Impossible...how could this be..."
Lin Xiao tossed his inner strength mentality on the ground, muttered to himself and walked a few steps, then suddenly staggered and rolled down from the white jade palm.
He Tingzhou let out a sigh of relief, and said: "It seems that I won this game."
Lin Yu said: "The palace lord's planning is not based on luck."
After speaking, he turned the hilt of the sword upside down, pointing at his biological father with the gleaming tip of the sword.
Lin Xiao was not seriously injured, and quickly stood up from the ground. His face was twisted ferociously, and even his lips turned black and purple. He asked in a hissing voice, "You guys did it?"
Lin Yu nodded and said, "Three days ago, the palace lord and I sneaked into this place first, and transferred the volume of internal energy and mind."
He Tingzhou said with a smile: "When Master Lin poisoned me, didn't he expect that he would also be tricked?"
"Why?" Lin Xiao yelled angrily, "Lin Yu, I'm your own father! You, you actually teamed up with an outsider to deal with me?"
"My father is the master Lin of Luofeng Manor. He is a hero that everyone respects, but who would have guessed it? He is also the villain who brought disaster to the martial arts world and the chief culprit who robbed the bride."
"What do you know? I'm about the same age as Murong Shen, and we went through the rivers and lakes together, but no matter how good my martial arts skills are, no matter how famous I am, I will never be able to catch up with Murong Shen. Why? Because his surname is Murong! But it's okay, When I get the remaining volume of inner strength and mental skills and practice the peerless magic skills, I will be invincible in the world!"
"The world is invincible? How many lives have you killed for these four words? Even..." Lin Yu looked up at the empty white jade palm again, "even my mother died in your hands."
Lin Xiao's face changed drastically before he finished speaking, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Nonsense! Your mother was killed by people from the Palace of Bliss and righteous people! They can't tolerate love between righteous and evil, so they encircled and suppressed your mother together..."
"Well, I really believed Dad's words before. I also followed your arrangement and entered the Palace of Bliss to inquire about the whereabouts of your inner strength and mind. Until I found out that you practiced such a life-threatening evil art It was only then that I became suspicious about this matter. Later, I secretly investigated the cause of my mother's death and found that when the people from the Bliss Palace found her, she had already been killed and died, and the martial arts cheats she stole from the Bliss Palace had also been taken away. And the person who practiced this skill in the end—it is you, Dad!"
"Then, it was given to me by your mother before she died!"
Lin Yu sighed, and said: "This is just speculation. What I am sure of is the way you opened the last stone gate. When I came here with the Palace Master three days ago, the stone gate was not damaged, but you will It was ruined, why is this? It is because my mother has seen through your true face before she died, so she deliberately told you the wrong way to open the door."
He paused for a moment, and then said: "Once the stone gate is destroyed, the entire treasure cave will be wiped out in a short time. My mother has long planned to let you be buried here."
"No! Impossible!"
Lin Xiao screamed wildly, shaking his head while rushing towards the iron lock bridge. Obviously, what Lin Yu just said was the truth back then.
Lin Yu stood there expressionless, until Lin Xiao came close, and then blocked his way with a sword.
Lin Xiao became angry from embarrassment, and said: "What? Are you an unfilial son who wants to kill your father?"
Lin Yu's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "Since it was my mother's arrangement, I will let her wish come true."
After all, the sword in his hand was finally swung out.
What he used was still the same set of flowing swordsmanship, but it was a bit more murderous than before. For a while, he could only see the sword light coming and going, majestic and majestic.
After Lin Xiao was poisoned, his martial arts were not as good as before, but when he became mad, his strength was astonishing. Although the two were father and son, they were merciless in their fights, and they fought fiercely on the small altar.
He Tingzhou looked at it intently for a while, and said, "Lin Yu can't stop him."
Xu Feng's heart tightened.
He Tingzhou smiled and said, "Brother Feng, I have a medicine bottle in my arms, please take it out for me..."
Knowing that he was seriously injured, Xu Feng didn't even have the strength to move, so he quickly reached into his arms and found a medicine bottle.
There was only one pill in the bottle, Xu Feng looked familiar and asked, "What kind of medicine is this?"
He Tingzhou paused, and said, "It's the wound medicine prepared by Shen Yi."
Xu Feng faintly felt something was wrong, but He Tingzhou lowered his head and took the medicine with his hand. He was about to speak when he suddenly heard someone calling him, "Brother Xu!"
Xu Feng looked back, and it turned out that Murong Fei was also chasing after him with a sword in his hand.
Murong Fei was surprised when he saw that Xu Feng and the others were seriously injured, and Lin Yu got into a fight with his father again, and asked, "What happened?"
After He Tingzhou took the medicine, he closed his eyes and adjusted his breath, so Xu Feng briefly told Murong Fei what happened.
When the two were talking, the father and son of the Lin family on the other side were fighting to a critical juncture. Lin Yu's continuous sword moves surrounded Lin Xiao tightly, but they still couldn't hurt him at all. Lin Xiao was poisoned, and his footsteps were a little vain, but his inner strength was still there, and he threw out three palms in a row. The domineering palm force forced Lin Yu to take a step back.
Lin Xiao looked at the opportunity and rushed towards the iron lock bridge again. Because of the poisoning, his eyes were as red as blood, and when he was about to step on the bridge, a broken sword appeared in front of him.
It was the sword that Xu Feng was broken by him just now.
Now this sword is being held in a hand as white as jade.
Lin Xiao raised his head slowly, and saw the face that made him hate it so much.
"It's you!"
He Tingzhou said: "It's me."
"Palace Master He is really scheming, to think of using Yu'er to deal with me."
"It was Lin Zhuang who did many unrighteous actions, and he left a handle on himself."
Lin Xiao's beard and hair trembled, and he hummed with a laugh: "When you met your palms earlier, you were already at the end of your battle. Even if the old man is poisoned, you are not my opponent."
"Master Lin, has he ever heard of... the Fire Pill from the Palace of Bliss?"
Lin Xiao's eyes widened at once: "You mean the secret medicine of the Palace of Bliss, the Fire Pill that can stimulate people's potential within a quarter of an hour? If you take this medicine, you will indeed have the power to fight, but after the effect of the medicine wears off , you can’t survive by yourself.”
He Tingzhou smiled and said, "It's enough to take your life."
When he said the last word, there was a flash of sword light, and the broken sword had already sunk into Lin Xiao's chest.
Lin Xiao didn't even see clearly how He Tingzhou drew his sword. There was a "click" sound in his throat, and an expression of disbelief appeared in his eyes, and then he opened his mouth, and a bloody arrow spewed out.
The blood was dark red in color, and it was obviously highly poisonous.
He Tingzhou hurriedly pulled back, although he was not stained with poisonous blood, he was blocked from his sight. Lin Xiao turned around at this moment and rushed in another direction.
Xu Feng and Murong Fei were watching the battle from the sidelines, and they were both startled when they saw Lin Xiao rushing towards him suddenly. Xu Feng was seriously injured, so he couldn't escape, Murong Fei didn't even think about it, the horizontal sword blocked him.
Lin Xiao's eyes were bloodshot, he didn't care who was standing in front of him, he swung his fingers like claws, and swung his palm over.
How amazing is his blow before death
Murong Fei could only hear the gust of wind, Lin Xiao's distorted face quickly approached, and just as the palm was about to fall on him, a figure leaped sideways, hugged Lin Xiao and tilted to the side, and the two collided together. on his sword.
laugh.
It was the sound of a long sword piercing into a body.
Murong Fei's mind went blank for a moment, and he drew out his sword blankly, seeing that Lin Yu's white clothes were already stained red with blood.
Lin Xiao was also hit by the sword, and finally lost the power to fight back, and fell to the ground slumped. But he still didn't give up, struggling to climb forward, muttering in his mouth: "Impossible! No... I am invincible... As long as, as long as I get the inner strength and mental method..."
He dragged a long trail of blood on the ground, and desperately crawled towards the volume of inner strength and mind method. Halfway through the climb, he saw something frightening. Suddenly his eyes widened and he yelled hoarsely: " Lianer!"
Then he lost his breath.
Xu Feng and the others had no time to pay attention to him, they just surrounded Lin Yu, and saw that his chest was bright red, and it was bleeding profusely at this moment.
Murong Fei knelt on the ground, hurriedly took out the wound medicine to stop his bleeding, Lin Yu half closed his eyes, gently held Murong Fei's hand, and called out: "Twelve..."
Murong Fei's hands trembled, and he said, "Stop talking, it's important to heal the wound first."
But Lin Yu continued: "After I learned the truth, I always wanted to stop my father's evil deeds, and now I finally did it."
Murong Fei had already pressed his wound, and said repeatedly: "I know, I know."
"When I didn't know my background, I secretly thought that if I was born to my wife and you were the eldest daughter of the Murong family, then the engagement between the Lin family and the Murong family would be different..."
Murong Fei blushed and said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Lin Yu laughed, with a mouthful of blood pouring out of his mouth: "It is indeed my wishful thinking."
He coughed lightly, and said intermittently: "Twelve, if you get closer, I'll have a word with you."
Murong Fei lowered his head according to his words, unexpectedly Lin Yu raised his head, and his thin lips brushed against his cheek lightly.
Murong Fei froze for a moment.
Lin Yu still looked at him like that, his voice was almost inaudible: "I don't want the last thing you see is my cold corpse..."
"What?"
Before Murong Fei could understand the meaning of this sentence, Lin Yu pushed him away. Then seeing the white clothes flying, Lin Yu put his hands on the ground, turned over and jumped off the altar.
Murong Fei's hands were covered in blood. After a while, he stood up blankly and looked down at the altar.
There is an abyss below, and Lin Yu can't be found anywhere.
It was only then that Murong Fei recovered his voice and called out, "Lin Yu—"
Seeing the sudden change, Xu Feng was afraid that he would jump down too, so he grabbed his arm tightly.
At this time, there was a booming sound in the ears, and the ground shook violently, almost shaking the two of them off. Xu Feng pulled Murong Fei back a few steps, looked up, and saw that there were cracks on the arms of the statue.
"what happened?"
He Tingzhou said: "As Lin Yu said, this treasure cave is about to be wiped out."
"Then we have to leave now!"
"Once the stone gate here is destroyed, the way we came in must be blocked, but there should be an opening mechanism on the altar. I'll stay and look for it. You guys go first."
Xu Feng immediately said: "I will look for it with you."
He Tingzhou thought for a while and said, "That's fine."
Murong Fei was still a little out of his mind, and after being persuaded by Xu Feng, he obediently walked back from the iron lock bridge.
Seeing that the whole statue was crumbling, Xu Feng hurriedly searched for it, but he is not from the Palace of Bliss, so how could he know what the mechanism looks like
He Tingzhou was very calm, walked to the blood-red eye on the right side of the altar, and pressed his palm on it. But after a while, some weird words appeared on the eyeballs. After He Tingzhou looked at it, he switched to the left eye of the statue. When he saw the words on it clearly, the expression on his face seemed to freeze for a moment, and then he turned back to look at Xu Feng.
Xu Feng felt a little awkward staring at him like this, and asked, "What's wrong?"
But He Tingzhou smiled, his eyes were so deep that people couldn't see through, he waved to Xu Feng and said: "Brother Feng, come and have a look at this."
Xu Feng hurriedly walked over.
Unexpectedly, when he was approaching He Tingzhou, the man suddenly stretched out his foot and tripped him, Xu Feng couldn't stand still, and fell into his arms. He Tingzhou's arms came up, just holding him upright, and then Xu Feng felt a pain in his neck, and his acupuncture points had already been tapped.
He Tingzhou stroked his hair, and said lightly, "Silly brother."
Xu Feng's eye sockets became hot instantly.
He heard the man whisper in his ear: "I have found the mechanism, but since it is a place for worshiping gods, how can there be no sacrifices? There must be one person staying."
Xu Feng shouted in his heart: Let me stay!
But because the acupuncture points were touched, no sound could come out of his throat.
The ground under his feet was shaking more and more violently, He Tingzhou quietly hugged Xu Feng for a while, then Fang let go of his hand and said, "Murong and the others are still waiting for you, I will take you there first."
After speaking, he bent down and carried the immobile Xu Feng on his back.
The iron lock bridge was also shaking violently, He Tingzhou stepped on it with Xu Feng on his back, walking forward step by step. Like many years ago, when both of them were young, he carried him across many bridges and walked many roads like this.
Halfway through, He Tingzhou said: "Brother Feng, have I ever told you what is the most fortunate thing in my life?"
He knew that Xu Feng couldn't make a sound, so he quickly replied: "That is, when I met you on the official road that day, I didn't kill you with a sword."
Even if he falls into the endless hell forever.
Even Xu Feng hated him to the bone because of it.
He is still sincerely grateful that his brother is still alive.
Xu Feng's face was leaning on He Tingzhou's shoulder, his teeth were clenched tightly, tears dripped from the corners of his eyes, and flowed into He Tingzhou's collar.
Such a short road seems to be a lifetime.
Finally, He Tingzhou stepped onto the opposite cliff, found a corner and put Xu Feng down. Xu Feng's chest heaved and he tried desperately to open the acupoints, but he couldn't move.
He Tingzhou straightened up, looked at Xu Fengzai carefully, and said with a smile: "In just a blink of an eye, my younger brother has grown so big. In the future, you will wander the rivers and lakes alone..."
When he said this, he suddenly felt unable to continue.
It just so happened that Murong Fei and others also saw them and were walking towards them, He Tingzhou wanted to turn around and leave. The moment he turned around, he changed his mind for some reason, and bent down again.
As the familiar breath approached inch by inch, Xu Feng couldn't help but hold his breath.
He Tingzhou's action was a pause. He slowly stretched out his hand to cover Xu Feng's lips, then lowered his head and kissed Xu Feng with one palm.
Xu Feng felt his heart tremble.
He couldn't tell if it was a kiss or not.
But He Tingzhou had already got up and left. Fog drifted between the cliffs, and the thick white mist quickly engulfed the figure.
Xu Feng's vision was blurred and he kept looking over. In his countless dreams, he heard the man say, brother, go straight ahead and don't look back.
But this time, it was that person who didn't look back.
