The woman sat on the ground, crying and muttering.
The young monks felt sorry for her, so they didn't leave immediately, and went to Yuanhai to support her, "Girl, but what troubles did you encounter?"
The woman's body kept shaking, and when she was pulled up by the monk, her eyes looked around, as if she was on guard for something. When he turned his eyes to the other side of the street, he suddenly screamed loudly, pointing at the person across the street and trembling, as if he had seen a ghost.
When Chen Ziqi saw that the woman was looking in his direction, she couldn't help being startled, she turned back quickly, and met a pair of picturesque phoenix tail eyes, isn't it Dan Yi
"Why are you here?" Chen Ziqi breathed a sigh of relief, the woman's expression was so penetrating, he thought he had met a ghost in broad daylight.
"Come to find you." Dan Yi smiled lightly, as if he didn't see the woman who was yelling at him.
Chen Ziqi came out to buy melon seeds. Tomorrow is the martial arts conference. Little Red Bird said that he wanted to recharge his batteries, so he was lazy in bed and instructed Chen Ziqi to eat melon seeds for him. After waiting for a long time without seeing Qi Qi coming back, Dan Yi was a little worried and went out to find him.
After the woman screamed, she suddenly knelt on the ground with a thud, and cried out in her mouth: "Palace Master, Palace Master... Palace Master, please forgive me..."
Hearing the woman calling her like that, everyone was shocked. Throughout the entire river and lake, the only person who can be called "Palace Lord" is the owner of Guiyun Palace. Everyone turned to look at the handsome young man in red.
"That person is the Palace Master of Guiyun Palace?" Yuan Hai sighed in his heart, these two people are so outstanding, naturally they will not be mistaken, it is the people they besieged in Luoyang a few days ago!
Only then did Dan Yi slowly raise her eyes to look at the crazy woman, with a disheveled face, her age, and an obvious beauty mole on her chin. After confirming that she had not seen her, Dan Yi couldn't help frowning slightly. The "Palace Master" was very strange.
At this moment, the mad woman who was kneeling suddenly burst out and slammed her head into the monk's chest. Everyone was still silently surprised when they met the Palace Master of Guiyun Palace on the street. Unexpectedly, a sudden change occurred, and even the monk did not respond, and she stumbled. The woman took the opportunity to grab the collar of the little monk Yuanji, took the little monk into her arms, and jumped out with a light effort.
Unexpectedly, this mad woman is not weak in martial arts. She shouted angrily and chased the woman's direction. Several young monks also ran behind.
Dan Yi gestured towards the eagle hovering in the sky, motioning for Diao Lie to follow him.
The monks chased the woman to a private house in the city. This is a large and small three-entry house, with blue bricks and gray tiles, a black lacquer door, and a cluster of new lanterns hanging in front of the door. It is obviously inhabited. As soon as he got close, he smelled a strong bloody smell.
Climbing over the wall, Yuanjing, who was walking in front, exclaimed in fright, "Ah!"
The corpses, the corpses in the courtyard, were scattered all over the place, each in a miserable state of death. Some hold swords in their hands and will not let go, while others are unarmed but muscular and bearded. These are obviously not ordinary people, but a family of martial arts who came to participate in the martial arts conference. The blood on the ground was still fresh, and it should have been two days since he died.
The mad woman was holding the little monk Yuanji tightly, sitting on the stairs of the inner courtyard, shaking like a twitch, and at her feet lay the corpse of a young child.
"This is... Lihe Yun's family." Yuanhai turned over a corpse and found a jade plaque, identifying the identity of the person in the courtyard.
The Yun family of Lihe was originally a small family in the profound way. Later, for some reason, he betrayed the Xuan Dao and said that he wanted to "reform the evil and return to the righteous", and his family took refuge in the Liuhe Sect. Ten years ago, this incident caused a lot of uproar, making this little-known little family known.
"The Yun family has been wiped out?" Luo Hongfeng, who was preparing for the martial arts conference, slapped the table with a slap upon hearing the news, "What's going on?"
In the past few days, people have been killed in Liuyang City. Luo Hongfeng suspected that someone was doing the trick. The Liuhe Sect was desperate to investigate the matter, and he was ready to spend money to ask Guiyun Palace to help him in the investigation.
The Yun family is a clan attached to the Liuhe sect. This time, in order to participate in the martial arts conference to fill the scene for the Liuhe sect, all the elites in the family were sent over. As a result...
Luo Hongfeng looked at the crazy woman who was neatly tidy up by the maids, and frowned fiercely, "Siniang, how did you become like this!" This woman's name is Yun Siniang, the only daughter of the head of the Yun family.
"Just now on the street, this female benefactor knelt down to a man in red, and said 'Palace Lord spare your life'." Yuan Hai explained the things he saw one by one.
"Huh?" Luo Hongfeng raised his head sharply, "What did you say?"
…
"Yun Siniang..." Dan Yi understood after hearing Diao Lie's report, "I guess she thinks of me as my father."
Chen Ziqi looked at him curiously, "Do you look a lot like your father?"
"It's a bit similar," Dan Yi pointed at his chin, pondered for a moment, and then asked about something else, "Are Ren Zongmo and Huang Teng here?"
"I have already crossed the river, and I will definitely be able to enter the city tonight." Diao Lie said the information accurately.
The Ten Thousand Gu Clan and the Thousand Poison Sect met on the road and came together, but for some reason they walked slower. The other sects of Xuan Dao have already entered the city, and the heads of each sect have come to see Dan Yi separately.
The martial arts conference was chosen for the Sword Alliance leader and Qi Zong suzerain, and it had nothing to do with their profound ways. Of course, this was the first martial arts conference after Dan Yi took the throne, and people from Xuan Dao were coming to support him.
The next day, the sun shone on the vast Eight Wastelands, projecting alternating light and dark clouds and shadows.
The sect house of the Liuhe Sect was built in the middle of the Eight Wastelands, and it was really high in the sky. The venue of the conference is located on the Sixiang Lake, five miles outside the sect gate.
It is said to be a lake, but it is actually a pond with a radius of 100 zhang. In the center of the pond, two platforms were built with stones, in the shape of Tai Chi yin and yang fish.
The seats for viewing and resting are built along the lake, and more than a dozen high platforms are set up for the various gates. Small sects with hero posts have also arranged certain positions, and those without hero posts can only stand.
As the host, Liuhezong sits in the north and faces the south. There are two big drums standing on the left and right sides, and there are strong men in colorful clothes who play bunts, holding huge drumsticks, beating one by one.
"Dong, dong, dong, dong, dong!" The heavy and thick cowhide drum echoed in the vast wasteland with a desolate cry that seemed to have come from ancient times. This is the tradition of martial arts in the Central Plains for thousands of years.
The dark martial arts people came from the direction of Liuhezong and Liuyang City to check the hero posts and confirm the order of the competition. After a while, the entire Sixiang Lake became lively.
Near noon, most of the sects had already taken their seats. Luo Hongfeng was wearing a black and white Taoist robe, standing on the high platform, staring at the high platform on the east side of the lake in silence.
"Sect Master, it's noon." The Liuhe Sect disciple reported in a low voice.
"Isn't Guiyun Palace here yet?" Luo Hongfeng slowly clenched his hands hidden in his sleeves. Guiyun Palace has always been self-willed, and every martial arts conference is later than others, but it never exceeds noon.
Dan Yi, this young boy, was even more arrogant than his father.
Not only is Luo Hongfeng paying attention to Guiyun Palace, but other sects are not peeking at the high platform there. This is the first time that the new Palace Master has appeared in front of the heroes of the world, and everyone is so curious to death.
"Senior sister, what do you think the Palace Master of Guiyun Palace will look like?" The girls from Su Xinzong came to the martial arts conference for the first time. Everyone was very excited.
"I haven't seen it before, but I heard from the elders that the palace masters of Guiyun Palace have been beautiful and extraordinary from generation to generation." Senior Sister Yuyun whispered.
"Then, will there be a good-looking person I saw outside the city?" Yuquan glanced at the master sitting in front and lowered his voice.
The ones I saw outside the city naturally referred to Dan Yi and Chen Ziqi. Chen Ziqi and the others knew their identities and didn't mention their names.
Hearing this, Yu Yun couldn't answer. That man has been born perfect, and it's hard to imagine what someone better looking than him looks like.
It was noon, and Guiyun Palace had not come yet, but several sects of the profound way had already arrived, sitting on the east side.
"Isn't Guiyun Palace afraid to come?" The people in the right path were talking a lot.
"I heard that the strange things in Liuyang City may be related to Guiyun Palace."
"Really or not? Don't tell me, the Yun family had a festival with Guiyun Palace, so I'm not sure..."
The news of the tragic death of the Yun family had spread overnight, and various speculations arose.
"Our head was called by Sect Master Luo last night, and I don't know what we are discussing. Could it be that we want to ask Guiyun Palace for guilt?"
The buzz of the discussion is getting louder and louder, and if you don't say anything, the venue will be chaotic. Luo Hongfeng couldn't bear it any longer. He stepped on the ground with his toes, and the whole person floated over the high platform like a bird. He floated out more than ten meters at a time, and only borrowed the force twice on the water to jump to the platform in the middle of the water.
The crowd suddenly quieted down, waiting for Luo Hongfeng to speak. Just at this moment, a melodious sound of silk and bamboo came from the sky.
Where the heaven and the earth meet, a huge soft sedan chair surrounded by crimson veils swayed along with the sound of silk and bamboo. Sixteen sedan bearers in black outfits carried the sedan chairs in eight directions, like birds, and flew directly to the top of Sixiang Lake without any leverage, suddenly changed directions in the air, and landed on the high platform on the east side. .
