Bukong Mountain is on the boundary of Shanxi.
The continuous mountains rise in the shadow of the cloudy sky, like a crouching dragon. Shen Du and Gu Zhao are both masters, if nothing else, the speed of the journey is extremely fast. Not long after, he had already left this lofty mountain.
When I looked back again, there was only a small point in Bukong Mountain.
Yiyang City is still to the north.
Thirty miles away from Bukong Mountain and not far from the northern border, it is considered a border town.
Shen Du has not been to this place yet, and he doesn't know what kind of place it is, but he has some doubts in his heart: "You Pengshan is in the East China Sea, and it is reasonable to say that you came to Bukong Mountain from the east. But the descendants of Wu Sheng are not there. What's going on in the town north of Kongshan?"
"You all know that I came from the east, how dare I put people in the city in the east?"
The two of them had already left this mountain range and walked on the official road not far ahead. There were few people in the road, and Gu Zhao looked very relaxed, and did not feel any nervousness because of Shen Du's question. .
"This trip is here to hunt you down. Pengshan, and even many martial arts comrades, are inconvenient for me to bring that kid. Who knows when they will be recognized? Isn't it a waste of time? So I let Tong Bo long ago. Bring someone to find a place to settle first."
Shen Du suddenly frowned: "You brought Tong Bo Lai?"
"It's a big matter, but Tong Bo doesn't dare to bring anyone else here." Gu Zhao turned his head, saw him frown, and laughed out loud, "Tong Bo hasn't even said that he doesn't want to see you, but you don't want to see him yet. he came."
"How dare he not see me?"
Hearing Gu Zhao's words, Shen Du's lips twitched, and he sneered.
"If it weren't for your Gu Zhao's face, this bad old man would have been slapped to death by my palm, wouldn't you think that I, Shen Du, are a good person?"
It is said that Gu Zhao was the young master of a wealthy family when he was young, but he encountered a change.
Tong Bo was the housekeeper of their family. He learned a little kung fu and was a trainee, so he escaped under the protection of the young master. He finally went to Pengshan and became an apprentice.
Later, Gu Zhao began to emerge in Pengshan, and he took the old Tong Bo to his side.
Said to be a family slave, an old servant who has been serving him for a long time, but Gu Zhao has always treated him with courtesy and never disrespected him. Even if the people in the rivers and lakes met, they all said that Gu Zhao had filial piety.
But this has nothing to do with Shen Du.
All he knew was that this old man was particularly disgusted with him, and sometimes after discussing things with Gu Zhao, he would be able to see him looking at him with that kind of guarded and unhappy eyes.
The vigilance is understandable.
do not like
Why doesn't this old man like him? Shen Du thought it was funny, he was good and fair, and Gu Zhao was the cancer of the martial arts.
Now that he mentions this issue, he is not polite: "In Yiyang City, he is guarding the descendants of Wu Sheng? Such a bad old man, don't look back and lose sight of others, that's just fun."
"As long as you don't have any crooked thoughts, Lord Shen, there are not many people in this world who have the ability to rob someone from Gu's hands. I guessed yesterday that you will never come out of Bu Kongshan in the past two days, so you will get through first. Bo returned to Yiyang City to watch."
Gu Zhao didn't mind Shen Du's rude words, and only pointed forward.
"After passing the villages in front of you, you will arrive after a short walk."
Shen Du glanced at it, and when he left the mountain range of Bukong Mountain, there was a magnanimous plain outside. With Gu Zhao around, he was too lazy to identify the direction by himself. Wherever Gu Zhao went, he went wherever he went, and he was very happy.
There was no gossip along the way.
Seeing that he could already see the high walls of Yiyang City, Gu Zhaocai opened his mouth again and explained the matter of Wu Sheng's descendants clearly.
"In the past sixteen years, everyone has been looking for the descendants of Martial Saint, but there is no trace of suffering."
"You also know that although I have ambitions for the three volumes of Buddhist treasures in Tianji Chanyuan, I haven't put much effort into it. I have been searching the whole world for 16 years and I haven't found it. What can I find?"
"I didn't expect that half a year ago, by chance, I got some eyebrows..."
Thirty miles, the two of them walked fast, and they walked for less than two hours.
The sun was already leaning west.
But neither Shen Du nor Gu Zhao showed any signs of fatigue on their faces, they just continued to walk along the official road, one talking and the other listening.
"You should have heard of Soul Chasing Old Demon, right?"
"After killing eleven members of the Dongnan Yin family early last year, they fled to Shandong. Tong Bo and I happened to be in Shandong at the time, so we came forward to investigate and hunt down this person. Of course he couldn't resist, but I begged me to spare his life. Give me important clues about the descendants of Saint Wu."
"I promised him, and he gave it to me."
As he said that, Gu Zhao touched his arms and found a small crescent-shaped ornament. The whole body was silver and white, but it was actually made of sterling silver.
It is said to be an ornament, but there are blood grooves engraved on the tips of both ends.
People in the arena will know at a glance that this is a hidden weapon.
Gu Zhao handed this thing to Shen Du.
Shen Du took it over to take a look, and his pupils shrank suddenly. Although he hadn't personally come into contact with the situation that year, Shen Du was in his teens sixteen years ago, so it's impossible not to recognize this thing.
"Silver Moon Hook..."
"good."
As Gu Zhao walked forward, he gently turned the jade flute between his fingers, and his voice was a little more vast.
"Wu Sheng became famous very early, and he was already famous in the world 20 or 30 years ago. It's just that he is obsessed with martial arts and doesn't care about anyone. He is a young man, but there is no confidante around him. Many famous people in the world want to Betrothed his own daughter to him, but Wu Sheng did not see him behind closed doors. Until that time the world will meet... "
Shen Du had naturally heard of this.
The World Association is held every three years. It was created by the Wusheng back then. It was only for the world's aspiring knights to learn from each other and communicate with each other. It was always presided over by the Wusheng.
But after a few times, the world's knights were faintly led by the Martial Saint.
At that time, although there was no martial arts leader, Wu Sheng Lou Dongwang was almost the first person in martial arts by default.
That was twenty-six years ago.
Lou Dongwang presided over the World Conference as usual.
On the grounds that he was obsessed with martial arts, he turned down many marriages and rejected many women who admired him. But no one thought that in this year's World Conference, he encountered the catastrophe of his life.
That woman's name is Lu Feixian.
She is from Xiefeng Villa and is the younger sister of the owner, Lu Fan.
She has no power to tie a chicken, but she has a beauty that amazes the entire river and lake. The first time he appeared at the World Association, countless heroic men bowed their heads and lost their souls.
Lou Dongwang is no exception.
He was twenty-six that year, but he already had the status of "the first person in the martial arts", which is exactly the heroic spirit. It is said that he is obsessed with martial arts and is not moved by external things, but it is because he has not met the right person.
Once you meet this right person, it's like going crazy.
Lu Feixian does not know martial arts.
Although she was born in Xiefeng Villa, she was frail and sickly from birth, and her meridians were small, so she could neither practice martial arts nor internal skills. Both the doctor and the Taoist priest said that she will not live to be twenty years old, but if she can carry it through, she will be better in the future.
The year she went to the World Conference, she was exactly nineteen.
If what the doctors and Taoists said were true, she only had one year left to live, so her eldest brother Lu Fan would bring her out to see people and things outside.
One is a long-established hero in the arena, and the other is a weak woman who has just entered the arena; he pity her frail and dying, and she admires his martial arts and heroic spirit.
Not long after they met, they fell in love.
The owner of Xiefeng Villa, Lu Fan, knew that Lu Feixian was not in good health, or he was afraid that he would die soon, so he did not want to agree to the matter between the two of them. After arguing for a while, he finally agreed.
Within half a year, the two were married.
At that time, who didn't say that these two people were talented and beautiful, and a pair was created by nature? It's a pity that Lu Feixian's health was already deteriorating, and he was about to die.
So when it is mentioned, many people will sigh "God has no mercy".
Lu Feixian spent half of his life in Xiefeng Villa, and rarely saw the outside scenery. After marrying Lou Dongwang, he didn't mention his illness at all, just wanted to play around and see the scenery all over the world.
Lou Dongwang accompanied her to see it.
From then on, the affairs in the martial arts were ignored, and only Lu Feixian was taken to travel around, searching for famous mountains and rivers, but he did not forget to find a famous doctor for her, and transcended the infuriating qi to continue her life.
Thanks to Lou Dongwang's high cultivation level, Lu Feixian has been able to support Lu Feixian for nearly ten years!
But in the past ten years, Lou Dongwang has made a lot of murders.
He had spent half his life, and he was no longer afraid of this arena. Sometimes Lu Feixian needed some rare medicinal herbs for treatment, so he would borrow them to get them.
Year after year, although Lou Dongwang has the order of "Martial Sage", he has also become a big devil who is feared by everyone in the arena. There are not many schools that can accommodate him.
Even the Xiefeng Villa could not provide protection for the two of them.
Therefore, there is this silver moon hook.
This thing is Lu Fan, the owner of Xiefeng Villa, and Li Yan, who was in the fortune hut back then, personally designed and built it. It is a complete set of hidden weapons.
Made of sterling silver, the power is amazing.
It is rumored that wearing it on the waist does not require internal force. With a single touch, thirteen silver moon hooks can be ejected, easily taking the life of the enemy.
After Lu Fan got this thing, he tried every means to give it to his sister, hoping that when Lou Dongwang was away or had an accident, she could use it to defend herself.
But who could have guessed
This hidden weapon did not fall into the enemy's body in the end, but instead hit Lou Dongwang's body...
A generation of Martial Saints for more than ten years!
Until he was seriously injured and fled to the Tianji Temple, returned to Buddhism, and passed away, no one knew what happened between him and Lu Feixian, why Lu Feixian took care of her for nearly ten years at a critical moment, and loved her too She has been shot for nearly ten years.
Afterwards, Lu Feixian was picked up by Lu Fan.
Maybe it was because Lou Dongwang's infuriating qi continued to live, or maybe it was because she had already reached the point where she ran out of fuel. After living in Xiefeng Villa for two months, she passed away.
Not a word was left.
Not to mention to anyone the whereabouts of the only blood and blood between her and Lou Dongwang, and whether they are male or female.
"There are thirteen silver moon hooks. Lu Feixian used twelve of them when he plotted against the Martial Saint. They were all collected in Tianji Temple, and later returned to Xiefeng Villa."
Shen Du played the hook for a while, and then handed it back to Gu Zhao.
"I've never seen this thing with my own eyes. If it's true or false, I'm afraid I'll have to go to Xiefeng Villa to compare it with the old thing."
"Don't worry, when I met Lu Feichan in Xiefeng Villa in the early years, I asked her to show me the real silver moon hook, which is exactly the same as this one."
Gu Zhao took it, only put this thing in the palm of his hand, and looked down.
"At the beginning, there were people who were puzzled. The whereabouts of the thirteenth silver moon hook is unknown. Now it seems that it is left to their descendants."
Lu Feichan, the daughter of Lu Fan, the owner of Xiefeng Villa, and the current young owner of Xiefeng Villa, should call Lu Feixian "Auntie".
Shen Du also knew her.
After all, because of the affair between Lou Dongwang and her aunt, Xiefeng Villa has been talking about whether it is right or not, and whether it is evil or not in recent years. It is between black and white, and it has some contacts with demons.
It's just that he didn't expect that Gu Zhao had already seen the Silver Moon Hook.
So he laughed.
"When an ordinary person arrives at Xiefeng Villa, how can they think of going to see the Silver Moon Hook? Only you, Gu Zhao, will do this. I also know that you said that you didn't pay attention to the matter of looking for the descendants of Wu Sheng before. , but in fact, I have been paying attention to it secretly. This scheming is really deep enough!"
This is sarcasm again.
Gu Zhao listened and glanced at him, but didn't take his words, he just put away the silver moon hook and said, "After the old soul chasing demon gave me the clue, I asked Tong Bo to track down all the way. The descendant of Saint Wu, named Lou Zhang, was found in the medical hall. Sixteen years ago, he was seven years old. He remembers some things, and you will know his identity when you ask."
Yiyang City is already in front of you.
The high rammed-earth city wall has not been repaired for a long time, and there are some weeds, which have long been frozen without the slightest green and withered yellow.
The north wind blows, and a black flag flutters at the top of the city, which is quite desolate at the border.
Shen Du stopped under the city and raised his head, squinting slightly at the black flag, his eyes flashed, and he was silent for a long time.
When he spoke again, it was a completely irrelevant sentence.
"At that time, Lu Feixian might only have one year left to live, but she met Lou Dongwang. You said, what should she think at that time?"
"… "
What do you think
Shen Du looked at the flag, but Gu Zhao looked at him. At this time, for some unknown reason, he felt that a strange emotion was spreading in his eyes.
Gu Zhao didn't understand it at first.
But when he turned his gaze towards the black flag fluttering in the wind, following the direction Shen Du was looking at, he was suddenly shocked.
That is the black cloud flag of Xiefeng Villa.
Plain black banner.
Two clouds are hooked diagonally with silver lines.
In the twilight of the sky, he picked it out like this, and dragged a shaky shadow on the barren and decadent wall of the city wall.
Xiefeng Mountain Villa.
Lu Feichan.
Ni Qianqian.
There is almost no need to think deeply, and the past is immediately associated.
Gu Zhao immediately remembered what happened back then.
That was more than eight years ago, he followed the elders of the division to the Xiefeng Villa. At that time, he was not the number one immortal of Pengshan, but a new disciple of Pengshan, but Shen Du was already a fearful Taoist Shen on the demon road.
Strictly speaking, that was the first time he had come into contact with people and things related to Shen Du.
The cause is Ni Qianqian.
Ni Qianqian, a white bone medicine doctor, was originally invited by the people from Xiefeng Villa to see a doctor for Lu Feichan. After seeing the doctor, he left. Who would have thought that he would disappear soon after, only to find out that it was actually robbed by someone sent by Pei Wuji!
Of course Lu Feichan was furious.
She has some friendship with Shen You, but Ni Qianqian is also treating her illness. How can you tolerate the demonic way of taking people away at will without letting them go
That's why I invited Pengshan to preside over justice.
Unexpectedly, when it came time to negotiate this matter with the Demon Dao, Shen Du didn't come forward, only Pei Wuji came out and said a cruel sentence: "Give you two choices, or let Ni Qianqian stay alive in Jiantianya, Or I'll give you a dead one."
Ni Qianqian has no martial arts.
Even if they were her friends, they didn't dare to make fun of her life, and even though they were so embarrassed, they finally had to endure it. Just looking back and thinking about it, it's really weird-
It's all right, what did the demon Taoist catch Ni Qianqian for
On the side of Pengshan, and even the righteous path in the world, there are doubts about it.
So I went to ask Lu Feichan.
Unexpectedly, Lu Feichan answered him in a perfunctory manner, unwilling to mention the reason in the middle.
Because the position of Xiefeng Villa is there, although everyone has doubts in their hearts, one is because of the face of Xiefeng Villa, and the other is that Lu Feichan said that the disease is gone, so it is not easy to ask.
This matter is so over.
Gu Zhao's Qiqiao and delicate heart, he had doubts at that time, but he was not familiar with Lu Feichan at that time, so he didn't have a good time to ask.
After more than two years, he became familiar with Lu Feichan. Once drinking in Caisang Building, Lu Feichan was half drunk, so he took this matter out and asked her.
Lu Feichan talks a lot after drinking.
As soon as he asked, she smiled and said drunkenly, "Shen Du, that god damned, Qian Qian said that he would not live for a few years after practicing that evil practice..."
Afterwards, he muttered again, saying "deserving it", "ten years", "God doesn't like him", but I don't know if he drank too much, or remembered something sad, and pulled his sleeve and started crying.
Gududu went down with a jar of wine, and actually put himself down.
Gu Zhao still remembers the wet tears on Lu Feichan's face, as well as his sleeves that were wet with tears or snot...
The Six Harmonies.
Shen Du practiced the Six Harmonies Divine Art.
Everyone in the world knows that he is invincible, and even if he is a devil, his martial arts can be regarded as the real best in the world.
However, at such a young age, does such an achievement really cost nothing
Gu Zhao's eyes moved back.
At this moment, he couldn't tell what he was feeling in his heart. He just squeezed the jade flute slightly, stood here in the deserted city and the wind was blowing, hanging up a flawless smile.
Then he asked him, "Shen Du, are you going to die?"
