"Junior Brother Zhang, what's wrong? Do you have to jump down and swim around just to pee?"
While Zhao Changhe was asking questions, someone from the other house walked out of the door leisurely. When he reached the corner of the door, he suddenly felt a numbness in his chest. He had been acupunctured by Yue Hongling.
The last person left in the room had no idea what was happening outside. A red shadow flashed by and he was also acupunctured.
Yue Hongling took one in each hand and carried them to the forest, where she questioned them one by one. When they came out and saw Zhao Changhe, they compared their statements and found that they were roughly the same.
"I have another theory. It's said that it wasn't this cold when they first arrived. It's getting colder these days even though it's summer."
"There must be a reason for this environmental change... What special measures did they take?"
Yue Hongling said, "It is said that Shi Wuding set up a sword formation in the cave at the back. I wonder if this is the reason. The sword formation is all participated by his Wu Zi sword slaves. Outsiders cannot enter and can only guard outside for him. However, this snowy mountain is very cold. Theoretically, no one would come here. Who would be so hard to guard here? Those who are sleeping are sleeping, and those who are drinking are drinking."
"No wonder, it seems that the guards are not so relaxed. So it seems that he is a sword slave without a name..." Zhao Changhe paused. He really didn't want to use the word "sword slave" to describe his friend, so he still said it in terms of generation name: "There are not many people of his generation without a name. It's not as good as the state that Li Si'an introduced that there are sword huts everywhere in Shu."
Yue Hongling said: "This is inevitable. This method involves a lot of energy. How can there be so many... Bashu is everywhere related to Jianlu, and most of them should be normal people asking for advice on swordsmanship. The Wu Zi sword slaves mixed in with them are just not noticeable. In fact, there should be no more than one palm of the Wu Zi sword slaves... This may be the reason why Shi Wuding can't break through the bottleneck."
Zhao Changhe nodded slightly, this analysis made sense.
According to this method, if it can be spread all over the world, it will be sharp. Not only the three secret treasures, I am afraid that the subsequent so-called "control" realm will not have any problems - according to reason, this should be a routine that can only be played by the "control" realm. It is too difficult for Shi Wuding to practice this. It is not easy to have a palm count.
But with such a small number, how can they use this to break through? The sword intent they mastered might not be as much as the heavenly book hack Zhao Changhe opened. Zhao Changhe couldn't even touch the second level of the secret treasure with this. Shi Wuding was kidding to think that he could use these few to break the third level of the secret treasure...
Maybe he would have made a breakthrough through normal practice, but wasting a lot of energy here and couldn't make a breakthrough...
No wonder they became more and more radical, choosing to combine Miaojiang Gushu to control ready-made masters as sword slaves...
Zhao Changhe pondered, "From this point of view, it is very likely that the sword formation does not have enough manpower, and knowing that Wubing has arrived in Bashu, they let Wubing fill the gap... And this sword formation must have problems. Wubing will not agree to it under normal circumstances, and he must be taken back under control... Now I don't know how to achieve this, do we need to meet face to face or can we do it from a distance..."
Yue Hongling looked up at him and said, "Even if you can do it remotely, you must be within a certain range. Otherwise, there is no need to trick Han Wubing to come here... He should not be here yet. You must go and stop him immediately. Maybe you can still make it in time."
"and you… "
"This sword formation has caused problems with the weather, and it has made you and me uneasy. It's very serious. I'm worried that it may be activated even without Han Wubing, so we must pay attention. So, you and I will split into two groups... You go to block Han Wubing, which may cause Shi Wuding to leave the sword formation to look for you, and I will ambush here, waiting for an opportunity to destroy the sword formation."
"Okay. Be careful."
"You should be careful too."
The young couple didn't say a word of extra words. After the assignment was decided, Zhao Changhe left the mountain quickly.
… …
In the dark night, Han Wubing walked slowly forward, looking at the mountains looming in the darkness in the distance.
His route was different from Zhao Changhe's. He came here directly from Bashu, from north to south; Zhao Changhe came from Dali, but from the southeast, so the two routes did not meet.
The master wanted to settle the feud with him, and invited him to meet at Xinshanmen, and also to "let the wanderer get to know the sect." This kind of human touch, which was rarely heard in the solemn and cold swordsman sect, made Han Wubing feel inexplicably touched.
Deep in my heart, I have always had admiration for my master, and it seems like there is a voice telling me that there can be no unsolvable grudges between me and my master. Go ahead and talk to my master... As someone who ranks over 30 on the human list, I am also qualified to return home in glory and talk to my master.
He didn't know that he was just a sword slave since childhood... But he knew that something was wrong with the sect, he knew it before.
Jianlu is in Bashan and has no property. Where does the money come from to support a sect
But the master seems to have an inexhaustible supply of money, and many of his fellow brothers are also very rich, and no one knows where they get all the money from.
Although our senior brothers often travel around the world, and many of them die outside and never come back, people in the world say that Jianlu disciples rarely travel outside.
There was no other reason. It was actually quite simple to know the inside story while in Jianlu. Not long after, a senior brother revealed it to him. Do you want to collect the bounty together
Han Wubing thought they were bounty hunters, but after following them for a few times he realized that they were not bounty hunters but killers.
Bashan Jianlu is the public identity of Tingxuelou. The assassin business is Jianlu's main source of income. Tingxuelou also has peripheral assassins, who are all recruited from all over Bashu, so they practice in a variety of ways. The real core assassins are all Jianlu disciples.
Han Wubing couldn't accept it... Bounty hunters and assassins sounded similar, they were the opposite of yin and yang. So he stopped participating, and his relationship with his master became increasingly unfriendly. On the bank of Jian Lake, his fellow disciples snatched the sword and killed their friends, which only triggered the breakup. The seeds of the breakup had been planted long ago... Of course, he didn't know that this was a sword path that his master had arranged for him based on his temperament. His unique choice actually made Shi Wuding very happy.
From beginning to end, it was just a real-life drama.
Han Wubing knew earlier that Tingxuelou had received a bounty for killing Zhao Changhe, but those were peripheral assassins disguised as beggars or waiters, and no real Jianlu disciples had ever taken action, so Han Wubing didn't think it had anything to do with him. When he found out that Yingshuang was looking for Zhao Changhe, Han Wubing couldn't sit still.
It's fucking weird. The forces that offered a bounty for Zhao Changhe's assassination earlier have basically reconciled with Zhao Changhe. The one who issued the wanted order by the imperial court has hugged and kissed him, and the one who issued the bounty from the Blood God Cult has knelt down and called him the Holy Son.
So who is still offering the reward now
It doesn’t matter who is offering the bounty, Ying Shuang is his senior brother, who is ranked over 30 on the Human Ranking. Zhao Changhe cannot handle it.
So he chased after his brother for thousands of miles and blocked his way in Jiange.
Looking at the snow-capped mountains ahead, Han Wubing suddenly thought, perhaps this was beginning to fit the name of Tingxue Tower
The past is gone... Since Master wants to reconcile today, let's talk about it. Why did we, who were born for swords, become the demon king in the dark night? This shouldn't be the case.
While thinking, his footsteps had already stepped into the snow-capped mountains.
The moment he stepped in, Han Wubing's expression changed slightly and he was about to withdraw.
He felt like he had entered a strange realm. His mind became hazy, his memory became fuzzy, his thinking began to slow down, and there seemed to be whispers echoing in his soul. All his consciousness faded, and only the shadow of his master became increasingly prominent.
Han Wubing was no rookie at this time. He forced himself to suppress his dazed mind and evacuate as quickly as possible.
There were shadowy figures behind me, and suddenly countless people blocked the way.
Han Wubing was in a trance again... Why couldn't his spiritual sense detect the existence of these people? They were all...
Are they all dead
No, there was a living person... He was also an acquaintance of Zhao Changhe, Lan Wujiang, whom he had fought during the sword test of 100 clans a few days ago.
“As expected of Wubing.” Lan Wujiang’s expression was even more rigid than that day, his face as pale as a zombie, but he seemed to still be conscious and able to talk: “You actually realized it the first time and pulled yourself away in time... But now that you’re here, don’t go back... Isn’t Jianlu good enough?”
Han Wubing could hardly hear the previous words, only the last few words kept repeating in his mind.
Is Jianlu not good? Is Jianlu not good
He covered his head with his hands and gasped, "What... is going on..."
“Nothing… Those who are away from home always have to return home… Ten thousand swords return to the sect, nothing more than this.” Lan Wujiang had a blank expression, as if he was stating something that was a matter of course: “The sect master is very happy about your rapid progress in cultivation. With the arrival of someone of your level, the last piece of the puzzle has been filled in.”
"Clang!" Before he could finish his sentence, Han Wubing suddenly drew his sword and tried to force his way out.
But this sword was very strange. It still looked sharp, but it was like playing house against Lan Wujiang. His every movement and every use of strength seemed like he was playing in cooperation with the opponent, and was easily blocked aside.
Several expressionless sword slaves nearby rushed up, grabbed Han Wubing and carried him up the mountain.
Han Wubing felt dizzy again, and found that he didn't even have the strength to struggle, and his eyelids began to twitch. What was even more strange was that his desire was still to go up the mountain... Why did he still want to go up the mountain
Is this a Gu? Or some kind of curse
Han Wubing carefully guarded his mind and looked inward quickly, but he couldn't find any problem for a while.
Is it true that as the people in the Central Plains say, Miao territory should not be entered lightly? I was killed for no apparent reason and I don’t know why…
I am so unwilling... I just came back to take a look for the sake of my master... Is it really like what they say, that the seven emotions of human beings are all wrong and obstacles to the way of the sword
At this moment, the sky suddenly burst into blood.
Under the moonlight, a bloody figure jumped down from the mountain, holding a huge broadsword in both hands, and slashed at him: "Get out of here!"
Lan Wujiang looked up in horror. There was a full moon on the mountain top and a figure seemed to be in the moon. He could not see the face clearly, only the bright red eyes were left, like a god or devil overlooking him.
Han Wubing, who was almost losing consciousness, smiled.
Who says everything is an obstacle? There is always something that stubbornly proves itself to the world.
