From Jiang Li's point of view, the two of them are very strange.
The origin of the sect is a mystery, and the purpose is a mystery. It is an enemy or a friend.
Their cultivation base is not low, but their names have never been heard before, just like they appeared out of thin air, rootless Piaoping, flying immortals in the sky.
But Jiang Li still chose to believe them, because he had no choice.
"In the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Sect, my aptitude is actually not the best. Senior Brother Yao Wangnian is a genius who has not been born in the world for a hundred years and is well-received."
Jiang Li remembered clearly how far Yao Wangnian's genius was.
They entered the sect at the age of six. They were not inner sect disciples at first. All newcomers were classified as outer sects. They began to learn basic skills, such as reading, standing, reciting sutras, and learning swords. Almost every disciple of Wanjian Xianzong, up to The sect master, down to the outer gate patrol disciples, all came here like this.
At that time, the elders of the outer sect arranged their homework and asked them to memorize a mental method within three days. The mental method was as thick as a knuckle, and the content was difficult and obscure. For them as children, it was very difficult to understand. I don't know what to say about a certain word in it, let alone memorize it. Jiang Li recited hard for three days, and only memorized half of the book. When the elders of the outer door took the exam, he stammered and made a few mistakes. Next, let everyone look at it with admiration, even the elders said that he has never seen a seedling with such excellent aptitude in the Wanjian Xianzong for so many years.
Soon they were selected into the Inner Sect because of their outstanding performance. Jiang Li and Yao Wangnian were even more fortunate to be the disciples of the elder Luomei Zhenren of Xingfeng Peak at the time.
Luomei real person is erudite and talented, and his cultivation is very high. To Jiang Li and the others, he is like a teacher and a father. After Luomei took charge of the Wanjian Xianzong, Yao Wangnian became the eldest disciple of the sect master, that is, the senior brother of the disciples of the Wanjian Xianzong. .
Yao Wangnian has outstanding aptitude and amazing talent. He was already a high-level cultivator at a young age. He even made a name for himself at the Thousand Forests Conference. With a Lone Moon Sword, he overwhelmed the heroes, impressing the cultivators all over the world. Since then, Daojun Lone Moon has The name spread like wildfire, and countless girls secretly promised him as the Taoist companion in their minds.
Jiang Li sketched out a genius image of a young man who became famous in a few words, but Yun Weisi did not interrupt, because he knew that the other party said these things just to pave the way for the next turning point.
Sure enough, Jiang Li's words changed.
"However, ten years ago, Brother Yao was suddenly expelled from the division."
Yun Weisi: "What happened?"
Jiang Li shook his head: "I don't know, I just remember that that night, there was a fire in the Sutra Building."
That fire was not an ordinary fire, but a red lotus karma fire, which no amount of water could put out.
The Book Collection Building is the place where the ancient books of Wanjian Xianzong are collected. There are not only the heart and sword art written by the ancestors of the past dynasties, but also many cultivation secrets that are not passed down. Only the disciples who have reached a certain level of cultivation and have been recognized by their teachers. Before entering the interior to observe and study, the people who went in were all silent after coming out, but they gained a lot. They all believed that they had made an unprecedented breakthrough, which shows the significance of the Tibetan Sutra Building to Wanjian Xianzong.
But there was a fire in such a place, and the arsonist was none other than the elder brother Yao Wangnian who was acquiesced as the successor of the next suzerain.
The innumerable treasures of the past dynasties were burnt to the flames, and the elders and two disciples who guarded the hall were also burned to death.
Wanjian Xianzong suffered heavy losses, and the whole group was greatly shocked.
Jiang Li even remembered that when he was called to go, the master Luomei Zhenren looked haggard and tired, as if he had aged ten years overnight. His handsome face, which did not show his age, unexpectedly climbed up wrinkles, even the temples. Dyed star white.
In front of everyone, Luomei Zhenren confessed his faults, saying that he was not strict with his followers, and that he was willing to step down as the suzerain, retreat and repent, and punish himself.
But this matter has nothing to do with Luomei Zhenren. For a long time, he treated all the disciples equally. During the period in which he was in charge of Wanjian Xianzong, the sect became stronger and stronger. People were convinced, and had no other intentions. When they heard that Luomei Zhenren was going to punish himself and resign because of his disciple's fault, they all pleaded for retention.
Since that night, the name Yao Wangnian has become a taboo of Wanjian Xianzong. The disciples who entered the school a few years later did not even know that Wanjian Xianzong once had a talented senior brother, thinking that Jiang Li was the Big Brother.
"Why do you think that Yao Wangnian burned the Buddhist scriptures building, he admitted it himself?" Jiufang Changming asked.
"No. But I remember that a few days before the accident, Senior Brother Yao was a little unusual. He was irritable, and his words didn't make sense. He has always been very persistent in his cultivation. Talk to him, who knows he will be furious within a few words."
Jiang Li's memory was exceptionally clear. Yao Wangnian was more than furious that day, he was furious.
He pointed at Jiang Li's nose and scolded: "Idiot, do you think you are very smart? Are you coveting the position of Senior Brother, do you want to be the Sect Master? I tell you, don't think about it for the rest of your life!"
Jiang Li was stunned at the time, because Yao Wangnian was naturally talented, but he was never this arrogant. Usually, the two brothers had a good relationship, and Yao Wangnian did not show superiority because he surpassed Jiang Li in cultivation. sense.
That day, Yao Wangnian's personality changed drastically, and Jiang Li even suspected that he was possessed by something dirty.
"Master said that Senior Brother Yao encountered a bottleneck in his cultivation. The more anxious he wanted to break through, the more he could not break through. In the end, his mind became frantic, and he went into a demon. A fire burned the Sutra Building, and he was buried in it." Jiang Li sigh.
Yun Wei thought to ask, do you believe what your master said
But on second thought, his question is very unreasonable. When he came back a hundred years later, he naturally knew that there was something wrong with Luomei, but Jiang Li didn't know it, and Yao Wangnian's matter was not necessarily related to Luomei.
Now, if Yun Weisi told Jiang Li that your master would take away your body in the future and start a plan to destroy the world, Jiang Li would probably treat him as a lunatic.
Yao Wangnian once went to Huangquan and retrieved the red lotus karmic fire from there. He combined this fire with his own mind and created the nine-turn red lotus. When the red lotus industry was burned to the ground, many people would doubt Yao Wangnian even if Luomei didn't say anything.
A lot of things happened in the past ten years, and Luomei Zhenren did not step down in the end, but he was often unable to retreat. The sectarian affairs gradually fell on several elders and Jiang Li, and Jiang Li also gradually stood out and became the actual acting suzerain.
But he is not interested in power, and has no interest in being the suzerain. He is even bored with the unfinished business of Wanjian Xianzong every day. elder.
After descending the mountain, Jiang Li was at ease, like a bird out of a cage. He wished he could fly 90,000 miles with his wings, but not far from Hongluo Town, he saw a person who looked exactly like Yao Wangnian.
Maybe many people have forgotten Yao Wangnian's appearance. This person is like a meteor streaking across the sky, dazzling but short-lived, but for Jiang Li, he will never forget this senior brother who grew up together.
The moment he saw Yao Wangnian, Jiang Li's original itinerary and destiny changed.
"I chased all the way to Hongluo Town, but I lost someone. I didn't want to give up, so I found a pharmacy in the town to settle down temporarily, and became the doctor here. I didn't expect that Hongluo Town was not very peaceful recently. I'm almost suspicious of things happening one after another..."
Jiang Li smiled bitterly and did not continue to speak.
Yun Weisi could hear his overtones—wherever Yao Wangnian went, something happened, and Jiang Li almost suspected that Yao Wangnian killed all these lives.
"At present, there are fox spirits and dream demons haunting the town. They may have been brought here on purpose, but I haven't been able to find the murderer for the time being, so I have to hold back and dormant so as not to startle the snakes. Since the two of you also want to find out the truth, then Our purpose is the same, let's join forces."
Yun Weisi believed that the person in front of him was not Jiang Li who was taken away by the fallen plum, but the real Jiang Li.
Because of his demeanor, tone, and Jiang Li more than a hundred years later, they are completely two people.
Even if the words and deeds can be imitated, the tone of speech and the interval of pauses in the tone are unique to each person.
Not only did they see the real Jiang Li, but they also heard an old secret from Wanjian Xianzong.
The current situation is complicated, Jiang Li knows that Yun Weisi and the two still have doubts about themselves, and honesty is the premise of cooperation, so he simply tells the whole thing in order to gain their trust.
Chang Ming: "Are you sure Yao Wangnian is still alive?"
Jiang Li: "Not sure, but I hope he is still alive, so that I can ask him face to face why he set fire to the Sutra Building, where did he go all these years, and what happened."
Yun Weisi: "About the murderer, do you have an idea now?"
Jiang Li put out four fingers: "There are four suspicious ones. One is Xing Zhaotou, his cultivation base is not high, he is half a monk, but I heard that he wanted to worship Shenxiao Xianfu several times in his early years, all because of his qualifications. Ordinarily rejected, in order to cultivate, he may cooperate with the dream demon fox spirit, in exchange for human life, let Jingmei give him the inner alchemy. The second is the town supervisor, this town supervisor has been in Hongluo Town for seven or eight years Now, the power is deeply rooted, but it rarely shows up, and it is mysterious. The third is the owner of the He's caravan who is with you, that old He. There were only these three, but now there is one more."
Chang Ming continued, "The Mr. An that Xing Caotou called just now."
Jiang Li nodded: "Yes, it's him."
The voice fell, and a scream came from not far away.
The expressions of the three of them changed slightly, and they looked at the sound.
The source of the sound was the dense forest outside the town. Chi Bijiang and Sun Wuxia ran all the way, but they couldn't escape the speed of the ghost fire. , instantly chopped the ghost fire above their heads to dust.
Chi Bijiang looked back suddenly, and saw the man holding the sword in his hand, handsome and handsome, like a god descended from the sky, saving people from fire and water.
"How dare the evildoer run away?"
The man pointed casually, and the sword light turned into a sword curtain, erected in front of Chi Bijiang, blocking all the ghost fires behind, and then slashed it with the sword.
