There were footsteps all around.
Dozens of figures appeared in the fenced courtyard, faintly surrounding them on all sides. Each figure was wearing a white robe, exuding a tyrannical aura. Two of them each held a child in their hands, and another had an appearance. An ordinary woman was tied up and shivering.
"Your Excellency has admitted the wrong person. There is nothing here." Brother Yang's expression changed slightly.
The slender figure in the white robe laughed: "If it weren't for the aura discovered by chance, it would be unbelievable that the generation of divination gods who used to claim to have figured out all the mysteries in the world would actually be hiding in the slums of Shizui City. I have observed that your Excellency For a few days, your Excellency, please stop acting."
"You got the wrong person." Brother Yang still said.
The slender figure in the white robe stepped out step by step and said with a smile: "If you are not, then I have found the wrong person? Haha, it is really disappointing. I have mistakenly identified the wrong person. In this case, why not kill two children to relieve boredom?"
As he spoke, he winked.
A strong man carrying a child waved his hand and chopped off the five or six-year-old child in his hand.
"Stop." Brother Yang was anxious.
The slender figure in the white robe stopped his subordinates and sneered: "If you are not, then you have no use value at all. Why not die with these two little guys and their mother? Anyway, every minute in this city is People are dying every second, and the four of you are not enough."
Brother Yang took a deep breath, with a look of pain in his eyes, and sighed: "I asked myself that I have never offended your Nalan family. Why are you so aggressive, Master Nalan?"
A slender figure in white robe walked out of the shadow of the wooden house, revealing a handsome face.
He is about thirty or forty years old, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and skin as smooth as jade. When he was young, he was definitely a handsome man who fascinated thousands of girls. The years did not leave many traces on his body. The long black beard adds a bit of mature charm to him.
This person is none other than Nalan Xingde!
The contemporary head of the Nalan family.
If others saw him, they would definitely scream in surprise. In the middle of the night, Nalan Xingde, the dignified head of the Nalan Family and the number one master of the Nalan Family, actually appeared in such a slum.
"You can see through my identity at a glance, and you still say it's not true? I don't want to make things difficult for you. I just need to ask you to come out and use the magic weapon to divine once. The Nalan family will definitely thank you. I hope you will forgive me for the offense I have offended tonight." Nalan Xingde smiled.
Brother Yang shook his head and said: "I haven't divined the secrets for twenty years. I have been a fool for a long time. I am no longer as brave as I used to be. I am afraid that the head of the Nalan family will be disappointed."
Nalan Xingde laughed loudly and said: "No one in this world knows that the most amazing person in the world once calculated all the mysteries in the world in ten days when he was less than ten years old. Even in the past years, You can calculate the longevity of the Divine Emperor of Shenting. He is said to be the number one person under Tianji, how can he know how to do it with his hands?"
"Any skill, like martial arts, will deteriorate if you leave it alone, let alone the ability to discern the secrets of heaven?" He sighed: "I have exposed too many secrets of the heavens and offended too many people, so I was hunted down. My relatives, friends, parents, wives, and children were all driven to death, and because of the backlash from heaven, I turned into a monster that is neither human nor ghost. I am already a useless person. Why do you value a useless person like me?"
Nalan Xingde smiled slightly and said: "Whether it is a useless person or not, just press it and you will know in one try."
"If I can still do divination, how come I am trapped here by you?" He asked rhetorically.
The smile on Nalan Xingde's face faded and he said: "Your Excellency was so passionate in the past, why should you be timid today? If you don't want anything to happen to your wife and children, then please cooperate with me. The Nalan family has nothing to ask for." , just one hexagram."
"They are just ordinary people, why bother them?" He smiled bitterly and said, "Let them go, I will go with you."
"Sorry, I can't promise you this." Nalan Xingde shook his head.
He could see that although the woman and the two children did not have any profound energy in their bodies or any outstanding qualifications, this did not affect his determination. Only by controlling these three ordinary people could he truly Take control and make it work for you.
After thinking about it, Nalan Xingde made some concessions and said: "After one hexagram, I can let you go and promise that I will never disturb your lives again from now on."
Hehehe smiled.
He knew very well in his heart that the Nalan Family found him at this time because they wanted him to be nothing for them. He also knew that human desire is infinite. Once the Nalan Family found him, they would never let him go again. He has experienced this kind of thing too many times.
"I really can't do divination anymore," he said sincerely. "I have done divination against the will of heaven many times, and my ability has long been lost." At this point, he took out a small gold and silver plate from his arms. It looked like It is extremely delicate, covered with numerous carvings. He stroked it carefully for a moment, raised his hand and threw it over, saying: "This is it, take it, and find another divination master who can also help you figure out the immortal weapon and its value." Where and when the elixir Yao Yin was born.”
Nalan Xingde was stunned, took the golden plate, and examined it carefully.
He could feel the strange atmosphere like chaos in it. After a while, he nodded and sighed: "The divine artifact that once made countless people crazy is indeed extraordinary... However," at this point, Nalan Xingde raised his hand. , threw it back again, and said with a smile: "Everyone in the world doesn't know that you are the only one who can activate the Divine Artifact. Other divination masters, even if they hold the Divine Artifact in their hands, can't figure out the location of the Immortal Artifact... Okay, nonsense. No more words, please come with us, otherwise..."
A ferocious smile appeared on his face.
This smile was so inconsistent with his splendid temperament that the whole person suddenly looked like a demon under the moonlight.
A master from the Nalan family pointed at the little boy's arm.
There was a bang.
A blood hole exploded on the little boy's arm. The little boy cried out in pain and struggled with a livid face. However, his mouth was covered and even a trace of sound was released...
"You... stop!" Ni Bodhisattva was shocked and said angrily: "He is just a child, he doesn't know any martial arts, but you can do it, despicable!"
Nalan Xingde laughed loudly, with an impatient look on his face, and said: "For the sake of your thaumaturgy, I have tolerated it again and again, but my patience is limited after all. If you refuse and say one more word, He'll lose an arm!"
The Clay Bodhisattva was shocked and angry, and said: "You Nalan Xingde, who is also a well-known figure in the Eastern Continent after all, are so despicable to attack an ordinary child... That's all, so what if I tell your fortune for you? Immortal weapon It came into being at the right time, and only his true master can get it. If an outsider has no luck, what can he do even if he knows the detailed information."
"That's right." Nalan Xingde nodded with satisfaction, then waved his hand and said: "Please, the night is long and the dream is long, the Nalan family has arranged a divination place for you, and we are just waiting for you to show your magical powers. "
He snorted coldly.
He knew very well in his heart that even if he really figured out the place where the immortal weapon was born, the Nalan Family would not let him go. They would never allow a person who knew the secret of the immortal weapon to leave the Nalan Family. His wife and children would still dangerous.
We can only take one step at a time.
I sighed in my heart.
I thought that in the first fifty years of my life, I traveled across the Eastern Continent, and my divination skills were invincible. I was the target of all the major forces vying to win over me. Even the Divine Court once treated me with great respect. But in the next thirty years, God's punishment came. , Feng Gua lived in seclusion, living like a human being or a ghost. He finally found an ordinary woman and wanted to live a peaceful life, but he was involved in such a turmoil.
The art of divination can reveal the secrets of heaven, but it cannot protect oneself.
I regret that when I was young, I did not learn martial arts, but was addicted to the art of divination. Although I was successful, I was unable to protect my family at this time.
Feeling angry and blaming himself, he could only sigh and leave with Nalan Xingde and others.
…
After returning to Red Rock Manor, it was already late at night.
Ding Hao did not alert anyone else and went directly back to the secret room to practice.
The battle with Ding Sha once again confirmed Ding Hao's previous setting for his martial arts path. He suppressed Ding Sha purely with the power of his sword. This time he did not use the magic knife and the rusty sword, purely using his sword. He defeated a young genius with his own martial arts skills.
During this battle, Ding Hao's understanding of the power of sword intention deepened.
He couldn't wait to take out the sword intention futon he got from Zhong, sat on it and began to understand.
When he closed his eyes, he saw another starry sky in front of him.
There are stars in the dark and lonely night sky.
According to Ding Hao's previous experience, each star may represent a kind of sword intention. It is difficult to imagine what kind of incredible being made this futon, which can contain so many sword intentions.
But Ding Hao has no intention of understanding other sword intentions.
He has already comprehended the four sword intentions of spring, summer, autumn and winter, which contain four different powers. He has not yet comprehended the ultimate essence, and he is biting off more than he can chew. If he tries to comprehend other sword intentions, he will not be able to improve his attack power. On the contrary, he will be able to You may distract yourself.
"Spring, summer, autumn and winter, the four seasons of the year, are also a cycle, perfect, with a beginning and an end. These four sword intents are enough." Ding Hao thought carefully. The practice of sword intent lies in understanding. It may take several years to understand one thought. of penance.
"Among the four sword intentions today, spring is for vitality, summer is for scorching heat, autumn is for harvest, and winter is for extreme cold. These are enough to cover all power changes, but I always feel that they are still a bit unclear. There are countless changes in the weather throughout the year. Three hundred and sixty-five days are endless, and it should not stop at the four seasons. A true reincarnation requires more perfect transitions."
