Alienated Martial Arts.
Chapter 283 Reunion
A carriage left Luoshui City and slowly moved along the official road.
After passing the Xiangshui Canal, a tributary of Luoshui River, there is still an hour's drive to the destination.
There were Liu Qingyuan's confidants leading the way to follow, and the close maid Xiaoyi played the role of the coachman, leaning on the shaft to rest silently, taking a sip from time to time with a skin bag full of spirits.
In the rear compartment, Wei Tao and Liu Qingyuan sat facing each other.
Neither of the two spoke, and kept quiet and silent almost all the way.
The carriage passed by a forest, Wei Tao opened the side window and glanced outside.
"I still remember the last time when I came to the gold drying field, I saw a dead body peeled from real grass here."
He took a deep breath of the cold air, and said with emotion, "Although less than a year has passed, it feels like it happened a long time ago, and even my memory is a little fuzzy."
"At that time, Mister was still the guardian deacon of Qingfengguan."
Liu Qingyuan has fully recovered from the erosion of delusion, and her whole body's spirit has improved a lot.
She looked at the woods outside together, with a look of reminiscence on her face, "I should have been on the road at the time, preparing to go to Gui Shufang's manor to explore possible secrets."
Wei Tao closed the side window to block the cold wind and ice chips outside.
He thought about it and said slowly, "Gui Shufang was exterminated by the imperial court and the sect, but the manor he built has been preserved, and the old man of the Qinglian sect has been staying nearby to take care of it. It doesn't matter how you look at it." normal.
If it is said that the imperial court and the religious sect have been concealed from the past, and the existence of these people was not known from the beginning to the end, I don't quite believe it.
But all those involved in this matter, or those who knew the inside story, turned a blind eye to it, let it go, and even suspected of covering it up, so it seems that this pool of water is more muddy than we imagined. "
Liu Qingyuan savored the hidden meaning in his words carefully, and sighed after a while, "When Gui Shu's imitation was exposed, there were not a few people who were interested in what he studied, whether it was the imperial court or the sect.
As far as I know, there are Mr. Donghe from the Tianji Mansion, Taichang Siqiong, who is also the master of the ghost hand Cangchou, and Xuanwu Daofeng Taishang, the head of the Dingxuan School Luo, etc., more or less Few have been involved. "
Wei Tao nodded slightly, "Whether there is benefit, no matter how high a mountain is, there is nowhere to go, no matter how deep it is, nowhere is there.
For many warriors, they may be able to remain unmoved in the face of power and wealth, but they cannot resist the attraction of benefits brought by the mysterious and treacherous silk. "
Speaking of this, he asked curiously, "Qing Yuan just mentioned Tianji Mansion, what kind of organization is this?"
"Tianji Mansion has always been secretive, and its reputation is not obvious. It's normal that you don't know much about it."
Liu Qingyuan said, "Sir, you have been to the capital before, and you should have heard of the Four Elephants Hall located in Da Nei, where there are martial arts masters on duty to protect the safety of the party centered on the imperial palace.
In fact, the Temple of Four Elephants is a part of the Tianji Mansion. Because it is more exposed to the public, it will be known more. As for the other institutions of the Tianji Mansion, they are kept secret all day long. Not to mention me and my husband, even Fu Taichang Don't know what those people are doing. "
Unknowingly, the gilding field is close at hand.
Wei Tao got out of the car, looked at the still standing Shimen archway, and recalled the scene where the room staff greeted him here, he couldn't help feeling a little dazed for a while.
The last time he came here, he thought he was just dealing with some heretic martial artist who was fleeing and committing crimes. As long as he was found and taken down, everything would be fine.
In the end, it turned out that the mystery and treachery related to Gui Shufang, and the remnants of Qinglian Sect were hidden in the surrounding area until the end.
At this moment, when he went back and thought about what happened back then, Wei Tao suddenly had an illusion as if he had passed away.
"Sir, shall we go directly to the manor, or stop here for a rest?"
Liu Qingyuan followed behind, staring at the chaotic buildings ahead.
During the snow season, the golden sun farm is quiet.
It is in stark contrast to the busy scene in warmer weather.
There were not many pedestrians to be seen on the street, perhaps they all stayed at home to avoid the wind, snow and severe cold.
"Let's go into the town, find a restaurant to eat first, and then go to the mansion outside the housekeeper."
Wei Tao walked forward slowly as he spoke, "We didn't investigate there carefully before, let's see if we can find anything else this time."
Soon after, the two came to a restaurant.
After being seated, I randomly ordered a few dishes of stir-fry and a pot of stew, and slowly ate with the staple food.
Wei Tao ate very slowly, and most of the time he just sat there quietly, watching other people's every move with some fascination.
From the guys to the diners, and the pedestrians passing by outside from time to time, they all brought him inexplicable and strange feelings.
Even driven by this strange feeling, Wei Taoyu used the God-watching Qi technique to observe more deeply, but he still didn't find any abnormalities.
On the surface at least, everything looks normal.
In his perception, everyone is an ordinary person, without any weird aura, and there is nothing wrong with the food on the table.
But for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what went wrong.
After observing and thinking for a while, Wei Tao's heart suddenly moved, and he discovered a certain situation that he had ignored.
The words and deeds of these people inside and outside the restaurant seem to be somewhat inconsistent with their identities.
In other words, as a restaurant opened in the gold drying field, most of the people who come and go are laborers who make a living, and the atmosphere of eating inside seems too quiet.
There is no bragging in full swing, and there is no red-faced wine fight. Listen carefully to the topics of their conversation, and there is not much about gambling and women. It is not normal to be true.
Not long after, Liu Qingyuan moved closer and said in a low voice, "Sir, this town is a bit strange, and there are false feelings everywhere."
Wei Tao nodded slightly, agreeing to this.
The falseness Liu Qingyuan mentioned may not mean that the town and its residents are false.
Because they are indeed real existences, and they are definitely not hallucinations brought about by mystical delusions.
To be precise, these people seem to be performing.
It was as if a stage was built, and the daily life of Sunjinchang was performed in front of him, allowing him to watch and blend in.
And here, he is not only an audience, he can watch other people's performances, but he is also on the stage, and he also becomes an actor.
"We're full, then let's go."
Wei Tao remained calm, and beckoned to the restaurant guy to settle the bill.
While waiting for change, he pretended to inadvertently ask, "The house member who used to live here, has moved out now?"
The clerk raised his head, as if he hadn't woken up, his eyes were still a little dazed, "What is the guest officer looking for outside the housekeeper?"
Wei Tao said, "We are distant relatives other than the room staff. This time we made a special trip from our hometown to visit his old man's house, but in the end we missed it. We don't know what happened."
"Oh, the house member's family has been wiped out."
The waiter at the restaurant weighed the broken silver and retrieved a row of coins. He kept saying, "This happened more than half a year ago. The house member's family got involved with the Qinglian Sect for some reason, and was arrested by the government." Send someone over and execute him on the spot."
His expression was calm and indifferent from the beginning to the end, and his tone didn't change much, as if Wei Tao was asking the guest officer what he wanted to eat when he just entered the store.
Wei Tao showed a surprised expression at the right time, with a little worry and fear in his eyes.
"Is that so?"
"Thank you, little brother. I suddenly remembered that my family and the room staff are actually not too close relatives. They are not included in the fifth server at all. I have never had contact with them before, so I am not familiar with them at all."
He immediately got up, pulled Liu Qingyuan and walked out, not even picking up the copper coins on the table.
The restaurant clerk stood there motionless, watching the two go out, his eyes became scattered and dazed again.
After a long time, he put away the copper coins on the table and began to slowly clean up the untouched food.
"Sir, what shall we do next?"
Liu Qingyuan asked when he went straight out of the Shimen archway of the gold drying field.
"The situation here doesn't seem to be that simple."
"Especially the few conversations with the restaurant clerk at the end reminded me of the servants of the house clerk's family, but I didn't feel any traces of the existence of Weisi on him.
Unless I killed him and cut him open to find him, I can't be sure what's going on. "
Wei Tao looked back at the silent market town, and quickly made a decision, "Let's go to Gui Shufang's manor now. I suspect that the strangeness of the sun-gold farm may have something to do with it."
After a pause, he added, "Others are not yet at the level of mystic perception. It is best to let them go back the same way directly to avoid unnecessary losses."
The carriage moved slowly along the road.
The maid Xiaoyi was still a little unhappy.
Because she also wanted to go to that manor with the young lady, and take a look at the secluded place where Gui Shufang lived in seclusion, which made the court and the sect restless.
It's just that the lady's order cannot be disobeyed.
And because it was Wei Daozi's decision, she didn't dare to have the slightest doubt.
Xiaoyi thought aimlessly, and wrapped her cloak tighter.
Suddenly, a light flashed in her eyes, and she tightened the rein in her hand.
The carriage stopped slowly by the side of the road.
Xiaoyi's face was cold and serious, staring at the slender figure not far in front of her.
His eyes fell on the plain white paper umbrella that was slowly turning not far away, and his body tensed to the extreme involuntarily.
The next moment, Xiaoyi found that she couldn't move anymore.
Even if he tried his best to mobilize his qi and blood, the power that originally moved at will was like a pool of stagnant water, unable to function at all.
"I didn't expect that after a short time, we will meet again, which is considered very fate."
A voice as warm as water sounded quietly.
Xiaoyi watched the other party slowly approaching, approaching little by little.
But his whole body was stiff and cold, and he couldn't make any response.
"Even the thought of resistance can't arise."
"This feeling of hopeless horror."
"She said it was fate that we met again, but why do I have no memory at all, and I can't remember where I saw her?"
Xiaoyi's heart was ashamed, and she had fallen into despair.
She didn't know if the companion who explored the way ahead was still alive, but after thinking about it, even if she knew it, it wouldn't help.
Because in this situation, she can do nothing but allow the situation to accelerate in an unpredictable direction.
However, Xiaoyi's despair didn't last too long, after only two or three breaths, that slender figure was already standing in front of the carriage.
"Forget it, meeting on the left side of the road means fate, since I can meet you again, how about I help you improve your strength a little bit?"
A melodious woman's voice sounded in her ears, but it exploded in Xiaoyi's heart like a thunderbolt.
She stared blankly at those eyes that were as bright as stars, and suddenly felt a little cold in her body.
It was as if everything was completely exposed under those eyes, and there were no more secrets to speak of.
Even wearing a thick cotton-padded cloak can't stop the chill from attacking.
The next moment, the carriage door was gently opened, she glanced inside, turned around and stroked the mane of the horse pulling the carriage, and sighed leisurely.
"You just went to the town called Sun Gold Field. Did the two people who were sitting in the carriage stay there?"
Xiaoyi sat motionless, like a clay statue.
Hearing her question, he nodded subconsciously.
She was silent for a moment, and a smile gradually appeared on her face, "Liu Qingyuan is really a very interesting person, even I didn't expect that she would be able to get rid of the influence again, and maybe even guessed my name directly without any clues. place."
"It's just that with Miss Liu's tact and caution, she shouldn't have done such an outrageous thing, so it's the other person in the carriage who can make her make up her mind."
Speaking of this, she smiled more and more, "If I guessed correctly, the other person is a young man, and he is Daozi Wei of Qinglin Mountain Yuanyi. Do you think I am right or not?"
Xiaoyi couldn't say a word, and she didn't even dare to look at her, for fear that the other party would notice something in her eyes.
She didn't care about this, her expression was thoughtful, she looked over the carriage and looked into the distance, "My guess just now may be wrong, if Wei Daozi really wanted to come to Gui Shufang's former residence, then it is very likely that he vaguely I noticed something, not because of the relationship between Liu Qingyuan and me."
"After all, he is very likely to be the soldier in the military town of the Cangmang Mountain Range, who inherited some things I left behind, so it is normal to have this feeling.
However, he and I came too late. The current manor is really just a ruin. Even if we can see, hear, and perceive anything from it, it is nothing more than what has happened. .
Even the town named Sunjinchang has become very different from the towns where other people live. "
Speaking of this, she seemed to have some rare hesitation.
After standing by the carriage for a long time, she suddenly asked, "Tell me, should I go see him now?"
Xiaoyi's body trembled without warning, and found that she had regained the ability to move.
But faced with this question, she didn't know how to answer it.
Because that person was not really asking for her opinion, but because of some concerns that she was completely unaware of, she was thinking and weighing, and hadn't made a decision yet.
If she pretends to be smart and says something, she will really become a fool.
A gust of cold wind blew through, rolling up the broken snow like fog.
That figure has disappeared without a trace, leaving no trace.
Xiaoyi let out a heavy breath, and was about to abandon the carriage and turn back in the direction she came from as quickly as possible.
But she only took a few steps forward, but her eyes were inexplicably black, her consciousness was blank, and she completely forgot what she wanted to do and what happened just now.
At this moment, in the gold sunning field.
Bingyun and Youli slowly walked into the town.
They walked tens of meters along the only street, turned around and entered the only restaurant that was open.
Bingyun randomly chose a place against the wall and sat down, habitually observing the surrounding environment.
"What would you like to eat, officer?" the shop clerk walked over slowly and asked.
You Li's eyes fell on the shop assistant, and he frowned slightly.
As the waiter in the store, this person not only moves slowly, but also has a dazed expression, and even speaks a bit vaguely, with slurred words.
Wouldn't it be smashing the restaurant's signboard to let him receive guests?
She was silent for a while, and pointed to the menu board hanging above the counter, "Can those signature dishes be made now?"
The store clerk said, "It can be done, but it will take a little longer. If the two guest officers are not in a hurry..."
"Forget it, we won't eat."
Bingyun suddenly spoke at this moment, interrupting the shop assistant's speech, and at the same time got up and walked outside.
But just as he got up from the chair, he sat down slowly.
Bingyun narrowed his eyes slightly, watching a person who was covered in a gray robe, even his face was covered by a hood, and slowly walked in from outside the shop.
There were obviously many empty tables in the restaurant, but the man sat directly opposite him, and then lifted his hood, revealing an ordinary middle-aged man's face.
"You are warriors from the Northern Wilderness."
The middle-aged man said slowly, "And they are two martial arts masters who have broken through the boundary between heaven and man."
Bingyun was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled, "Who are you, since you know our identity, you dare to be so presumptuous?"
The man didn't answer his question, but continued on his own, "With the strength of the two of you, it's easy to kill me, even if you wipe out the whole town, it won't waste too much of your time.
But it doesn't make much sense, it's like a girl who is more powerful than you came over yesterday, and a couple who just left the town before you, they didn't do this meaningless thing. "
Bingyun's smile disappeared, and her expression gradually became serious, "Who are those three people you mentioned?"
The middle-aged man shook his head, "They are still very young, so naturally I don't know their names, at most I can guess from some details that two of them are disciples of the Xuanwu Dao, and the other should be an official of the Tourist Division. "
"You also met them like this?" Bingyun asked.
"No, I just glanced at them a few times. I didn't sit across from them and talk to them like I am now."
Bingyun tapped the table lightly with her fingers, and the sound of duk tu rang out in circles.
The face of the middle-aged man on the opposite side suddenly turned pale, fine cold sweat oozes from his forehead, and even a ray of blood overflows from the corner of his lips.
He stopped at this moment, thought slowly and said, "I observed again and again and found that you are indeed just an ordinary person, but in the end you can directly see the identity of a Xuanwu Dao disciple and an official of the Tourist Department.
All these things really make me a little curious about what kind of secrets you are hiding. "
The middle-aged man wiped the blood from his mouth, but his expression was still calm, and his tone did not show any ups and downs, "The secret is in the destroyed villa outside the town, and you can search for it at any time.
However, it is better for the two of you to wait for a while before going, so as not to meet the young man and woman who arrived one step earlier. "
"It's just a Xuanwu disciple. Unless it's Sun Xiyue who has long since disappeared, I don't care about others at all."
Bingyun lowered her eyes, with a faint smile on her face, "But compared to them, you make me more curious.
After all, as a member of the Great Zhou Dynasty, what is the point of appearing in front of us and two Northern Wilderness warriors instead of going to interview with Xuanwu disciples and patrol officers? "
"Could it be that you are tired of the day-to-day hard life and want to rely on us to seek prosperity and wealth?"
"Prosperity and wealth are like passing clouds to me, and they are not worth mentioning at all.
But it is precisely because the two of you came from the Northern Wilderness that I came before you. "
The man paused at this point, and his voice suddenly became distorted when he spoke again, "You should know Luo Qingjun, I hope you can bring her a word when you go back."
"Luo Qingjun..."
Bingyu took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly, "Who is Luo Qingjun?"
You Li's eyes sparkled, and he also showed a puzzled expression.
"Have you never heard of this name?"
The middle-aged man frowned for the first time since he appeared, and continued after a while, "One of the seven sects of the Great Zhou Sect, Luo Daozi of the Dingxuan sect, do you know?"
Youli couldn't help but sighed, and said in a strange tone, "Seeing that you are not very old, why are you talking about old things from decades ago?
I just remembered Luo Qingjun's name, but she was Dingxuan Taoist 30 years ago, and she has been sitting in the position of Dingxuan's head since then, and she is no longer alive. "
"So that's it. I really don't know a lot of things. Thank you both for clarifying my doubts."
The middle-aged man nodded, but then said something that surprised both of them.
"Luo Qingjun is not dead, he is in Beihuang right now."
A light flashed in Bingyu's eyes, and his voice suddenly became very soft, "What proof do you have for saying this?"
"The evidence is that Brahma gave birth to the spirit of heaven. If she wasn't in the Northern Wilderness, how could she connect with Brahma spiritually and try to suppress me?
I was able to talk to the two of them face to face, which was the result of her borrowing the power of Brahma's spiritual power. "
The middle-aged man was still talking, there was a transparent hole between the eyebrows without any sign, and the sticky brain inside could be clearly seen.
His voice stopped abruptly, he slid slowly from the wooden chair, and fell to the ground with a thud, without even struggling, he lost all his life.
Although the person died, the shopkeeper of the restaurant and the other two tables of guests turned a blind eye to it, turned a deaf ear to it, and were still doing their own things, as if the corpse on the ground did not exist at all.
"Youli, what are you doing?"
Bingyun slowly turned his head to look, his eyes were gloomy and his expression was gloomy.
"Master Bingyun, do you feel that our spirit seems to be affected unconsciously?"
Youli's tone was serious, "I practice Youshen thorn, and I'm the most sensitive to this kind of change, but I only discovered something wrong just now."
Bingyun closed his eyes, carefully perceiving.
After a while, he exhaled lightly, "You are right, he is just an ordinary person, but he can exert a spiritual influence on our two martial arts masters, which is simply beyond my imagination."
Youli asked, "What is Master Bingyun going to do?"
"This town is not normal."
Bingyun looked around for a week, "Kill all the people here, and then go to Gui Shufang's manor, maybe you can meet Xuanwu Dao disciples, and you can ask more things from him."
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded and passed into the ears of the two.
Bingyun turned her head to look and found that it was the restaurant guy who was speaking.
"Don't be impatient, you two. After I finish what I have to say, it's not too late for you to kill people, even Tuzhen."
As soon as the shop assistant's voice fell, his whole body suddenly became stiff, his face was covered with a layer of blue ice crystals, and he also fell to the ground, losing his breath of life in an instant.
"I hope the two of you will go back and tell Luo Qingjun..."
Almost at the same time as the restaurant guy fell down, a diner sitting in the distance turned his head ninety degrees and took the conversation.
In the middle of his speech, he fell limply on the table, the cups, plates and saucers knocked to the ground, and the wine, water and vegetable soup splashed everywhere.
"Da Fansheng's spiritual meaning can't be borrowed at will, as she thought."
The guest on the second table continued to speak, and died just after saying a word.
Immediately afterwards, the owner of the restaurant sat up straight from behind the counter, "She wanted to use Brahma's spirit, but she didn't understand some key points, and she didn't know that if you borrow something, you must pay it back. There is no reason in the world that you only borrow and don't pay back."
This time, Bingyun didn't do anything again, and Youli also remained silent, quietly listening to what the restaurant manager had to say.
"If Luo Qingjun continues like this, he will die without a place to bury him. Why don't we let her and I separate..."
As the shopkeeper of the restaurant said, blood gushed out of his seven orifices suddenly, and he died on the spot, following in the footsteps of everyone else in the restaurant.
"The last one is not my shot."
Youli's spirit suddenly rose, and he looked around vigilantly.
Bingyun shook his head slowly, "I didn't make a move either, but he just died in front of our eyes."
After being silent for a long time, he suddenly revealed an inexplicable smile, "I have practiced the secret method passed down from generation to generation in my tribe since I was a child. After going through all kinds of hardships and hardships, I have overcome many obstacles and tests, and finally became a master of martial arts.
Afterwards, he did not dare to relax and slack off, and continued to practice hard day and night, until he touched the threshold of Yin and Yang, and glimpsed a wonderful and mysterious scenery inside. "
"Along the way, I have forgotten how many warriors I have defeated and how many enemies I have killed, but I have never had such a fantastic and weird experience like today.
Even though I was only facing a few ordinary people who couldn't even transfer Qi and blood, it actually gave me an inexplicable sense of fear. "
Bingyun shook her head and sighed, wiped off a little sweat on her forehead, got up and walked towards the outside of the store.
This time, no one spoke.
They were not hindered in any way.
Youli stopped in front of the door, and looked back at the corpses in different shapes, "Master Bingyun, do we still want to erase the whole town?"
"No, no one here can die anymore."
Bingyun looked up at the dark sky, and reached out to catch the snowflakes that started to fall again, "If I kill another ordinary person in this town, my state of mind will be affected irresistibly.
This is the warning given to me by Dafan Shengtian, but it is also an opportunity for me to go further. "
"I must thank You Li this time. If it wasn't for the information you provided, I wouldn't have come here."
He looked down at the snowflake growing rapidly in the palm of his hand, and the color became blue and crystal clear, his eyes filled with more and more light, "I can't kill the residents of the small town, but I can't vent the murderous intent that has just risen in my heart. The depression has been accumulated in the chest, but it is like a fire burn, which is unbearable.
I hope to meet those two Xuanwu disciples in the near future, so that I can fully vent my murderous intentions that I have nowhere to release, so that I can greet the spiritual meaning of the Great Brahma in a more transparent state of mind later. "
…………
………………
After less than a day of rest, the wind and snow enveloped the world again.
Wei Tao and Liu Qingyuan walked through the woods, and stopped in front of the manor that was completely invisible.
He did not go directly into it, but carefully observed the perception from the outside.
"Someone has indeed been here."
After a while, Wei Tao squatted down, stretched out his hands to touch the slightly scorched ground, and turned his head to look at the boots Liu Qingyuan was wearing.
"It should be a woman. Her feet are about the same size as yours, and they seem to be a little smaller."
Liu Qingyuan's face flushed slightly, and she coughed lightly, "What else did you find?"
"I didn't find anything else."
Wei Tao is still observing the almost none footprints, and then expands the search area.
It wasn't until they were more than ten meters away that they saw another trace.
He frowned slightly, "The distance between two steps is about five feet, the key is that her footprints are so shallow, which shows that her level of strength is extraordinary.
Of course, it is also possible that she has practiced some kind of movement technique, so that she can cross such a long distance silently without exerting force on her legs.
It's like Dingxuan Palace. At the beginning, I chased and fled with her, running a distance of hundreds of miles in the wilderness. Compared with my step-by-step lotus growth, she moved forward like the wind and misty, without a trace of fireworks . "
Wei Tao restrained his thoughts and continued to walk inward.
According to the location described in Feng Qingping's delusion, and then searched for the memories left in the manor before, passed through the ruined ruins, and approached the original garden bit by bit.
Liu Qingyuan followed silently, watching the scorched mess appearing on the ground from time to time, and recalling the description of Gui Shufang in the case files, she couldn't help being dazed for a while.
The inexplicable emotion that life is unpredictable and the world is unspeakable is born.
There was a slight click.
Wei Tao stepped on a dead branch.
He stopped at this moment, looked down at the broken stone tablet lying on the ground not far ahead, and slowly read three words that had not been completely erased.
"Guishu imitation."
Next, he passed the stele and saw the five-foot-square, dark hole leading to the ground.
In the pile of rocks not far away, there is obviously newly excavated soil, which forms an extremely sharp contrast with the surrounding gray and black traces.
"This should be the location of the Gui Family Ancestral Hall."
Liu Qingyuan stepped forward, recalling slowly and said, "At the beginning, my husband and I also searched the area carefully for a long time, but we didn't find such a hole leading to the ground."
Wei Tao didn't speak, Feng Qingping's description of delusions flashed in his mind.
A middle-aged man walked up the gloomy and gloomy steps, exuding a horrifying bloody aura all over his body.
"So, Liu Qingyuan's guess is very likely to be correct, just last night, or the night before, someone really went to the Luoshui Tour Division to look for her.
And that person also came to this manor just as she had imagined, and dug the hole that appeared in Feng Qingping's delusion. "
"I still don't know what's hidden underneath, and why Guishu's imitation failed 30 years ago, and it hasn't really been brought back to light until now."
Wei Tao thought silently, looked down into the cave, and could only see a section of stairs close to the ground, and then down there was a turning, inside which he couldn't see his fingers, so it was impossible to see where it led.
Picking up a stone from his feet, he flicked it lightly with his fingers, the tinkling sound was endless, and he barely stopped after a few breaths.
"It seems that we still need to go down and investigate in person to find out what is hidden inside."
Wei Tao took a deep breath of cold air, and took out a few torches from his carry-on luggage, "I'll go down first, and you will follow. We are separated by eight to ten steps. If there is any situation, call the police immediately."
"Understood, sir, be careful, it's very dark inside, I'm afraid it's..."
Before Liu Qingyuan finished speaking, she kept silent without warning.
She had a puzzled expression on her face, and her eyes became scattered and confused.
The whole person fell limply to the side and fell asleep right there.
Long before she opened her mouth to speak, Wei Tao had already turned around and looked towards the depths of the wind and snow on one side.
boom!
Right at this moment.
In his eyes, everything disappeared in an instant.
There was no flying snow all over the sky, no ruins, and even Liu Qingyuan, who was supported by him just now, was nowhere to be seen.
In his line of sight, only endless darkness remained.
And a pair of eyes that slowly light up in the darkness.
Those were a pair of eyes that were sparkling with autumn water and as bright as stars.
Exuding a breathtakingly bright light, it appeared from the deepest part of the darkness, watching over it silently.
In an instant, countless images swirled in front of Wei Tao's eyes like a revolving lantern.
Under the gaze of those eyes, he suddenly felt as if he was facing an abyss, walking on thin ice, and felt a danger that he had not experienced for a long time.
Wei Tao calmed down, but his spirit suddenly rose.
He was not moved at all by the flashing images, but slowly but resolutely, he took a step forward towards the pair of star-like shining eyes in the distance.
boom!
All the illusions disappeared at this moment, and everything returned to the state where he and Liu Qingyuan had just come here.
The cold wind howled and the snowflakes flew.
The broken stone tablet lay on the ground, and the gloomy and dark hole lay in front of it.
But those eyes that were as bright as stars had disappeared, disappeared like yellow cranes without a trace.
"Who is the owner of those eyes?"
"The two slender footprints found in the manor, are they left by the owner of the eyes?"
"Is she the mysterious person looking for Liu Qingyuan?"
"More importantly, looking at these eyes, why does it give me a strangely familiar feeling?"
A series of questions came to mind, which made Wei Tao feel a little worried.
Even the pitch-black hole next to it lost its original appeal.
He took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly, using all his strength to use the God-watching Qi Technique, trying to capture the opponent's Qi again.
In the end, nothing was achieved, and it was in vain.
Because at the same time when God Watching Qi Art was activated, two figures in black robes and hoods appeared in Wei Tao's line of sight.
The aura of martial arts master transformed from heaven and man immediately shattered the surrounding wind and snow environment, covering up the seemingly invisible aura, completely disrupting his efforts to search for it with the technique of watching the gods and looking at the aura.
Bingyun stopped slowly, looking through the wind and snow.
Looking at the two figures standing together in front of him, he smiled and sighed leisurely, "This person should be that Xuanwu disciple, and I have already smelled the sweet scent of killing."
You Li folded his hands in his sleeves, and exhaled softly, "He also has a beautiful girl in his arms. In this icy and snowy place, where there are ashes after burning, the two sect disciples are quite interesting."
With a blank face and cold eyes, Wei Tao slowly took a step forward, protecting Liu Qingyuan who had just woken up.
At the moment when the two men in black robes appeared, several thoughts flashed through his mind.
"It's completely beyond my expectations. This feeling should be two Northern Wilderness masters, and they actually appeared in the ruins of Gui Shufang's manor!?"
"If the owner of those eyes is also with the two Northern Wilderness Grandmasters, I'm afraid this battle will be quite difficult, and there is a high possibility that they will lose and die."
He quickly restrained his thoughts, and said in a calm tone, "You go now, don't look back."
Liu Qingyuan gritted her teeth and said, "What about Mr.?"
"The two people on the opposite side have locked our breath, so you can go, but I can't go now.
But whoever wants me to die, I will drag him into the Underworld! "
Wei Tao lowered his eyes, his aura suddenly restrained like a rock.
Immediately afterwards, his body sank and began to gather momentum.
It's like an extremely depressed submarine volcano.
It will suddenly erupt at some point, destroying everything around it.
After passing the Xiangshui Canal, a tributary of Luoshui River, there is still an hour's drive to the destination.
There were Liu Qingyuan's confidants leading the way to follow, and the close maid Xiaoyi played the role of the coachman, leaning on the shaft to rest silently, taking a sip from time to time with a skin bag full of spirits.
In the rear compartment, Wei Tao and Liu Qingyuan sat facing each other.
Neither of the two spoke, and kept quiet and silent almost all the way.
The carriage passed by a forest, Wei Tao opened the side window and glanced outside.
"I still remember the last time when I came to the gold drying field, I saw a dead body peeled from real grass here."
He took a deep breath of the cold air, and said with emotion, "Although less than a year has passed, it feels like it happened a long time ago, and even my memory is a little fuzzy."
"At that time, Mister was still the guardian deacon of Qingfengguan."
Liu Qingyuan has fully recovered from the erosion of delusion, and her whole body's spirit has improved a lot.
She looked at the woods outside together, with a look of reminiscence on her face, "I should have been on the road at the time, preparing to go to Gui Shufang's manor to explore possible secrets."
Wei Tao closed the side window to block the cold wind and ice chips outside.
He thought about it and said slowly, "Gui Shufang was exterminated by the imperial court and the sect, but the manor he built has been preserved, and the old man of the Qinglian sect has been staying nearby to take care of it. It doesn't matter how you look at it." normal.
If it is said that the imperial court and the religious sect have been concealed from the past, and the existence of these people was not known from the beginning to the end, I don't quite believe it.
But all those involved in this matter, or those who knew the inside story, turned a blind eye to it, let it go, and even suspected of covering it up, so it seems that this pool of water is more muddy than we imagined. "
Liu Qingyuan savored the hidden meaning in his words carefully, and sighed after a while, "When Gui Shu's imitation was exposed, there were not a few people who were interested in what he studied, whether it was the imperial court or the sect.
As far as I know, there are Mr. Donghe from the Tianji Mansion, Taichang Siqiong, who is also the master of the ghost hand Cangchou, and Xuanwu Daofeng Taishang, the head of the Dingxuan School Luo, etc., more or less Few have been involved. "
Wei Tao nodded slightly, "Whether there is benefit, no matter how high a mountain is, there is nowhere to go, no matter how deep it is, nowhere is there.
For many warriors, they may be able to remain unmoved in the face of power and wealth, but they cannot resist the attraction of benefits brought by the mysterious and treacherous silk. "
Speaking of this, he asked curiously, "Qing Yuan just mentioned Tianji Mansion, what kind of organization is this?"
"Tianji Mansion has always been secretive, and its reputation is not obvious. It's normal that you don't know much about it."
Liu Qingyuan said, "Sir, you have been to the capital before, and you should have heard of the Four Elephants Hall located in Da Nei, where there are martial arts masters on duty to protect the safety of the party centered on the imperial palace.
In fact, the Temple of Four Elephants is a part of the Tianji Mansion. Because it is more exposed to the public, it will be known more. As for the other institutions of the Tianji Mansion, they are kept secret all day long. Not to mention me and my husband, even Fu Taichang Don't know what those people are doing. "
Unknowingly, the gilding field is close at hand.
Wei Tao got out of the car, looked at the still standing Shimen archway, and recalled the scene where the room staff greeted him here, he couldn't help feeling a little dazed for a while.
The last time he came here, he thought he was just dealing with some heretic martial artist who was fleeing and committing crimes. As long as he was found and taken down, everything would be fine.
In the end, it turned out that the mystery and treachery related to Gui Shufang, and the remnants of Qinglian Sect were hidden in the surrounding area until the end.
At this moment, when he went back and thought about what happened back then, Wei Tao suddenly had an illusion as if he had passed away.
"Sir, shall we go directly to the manor, or stop here for a rest?"
Liu Qingyuan followed behind, staring at the chaotic buildings ahead.
During the snow season, the golden sun farm is quiet.
It is in stark contrast to the busy scene in warmer weather.
There were not many pedestrians to be seen on the street, perhaps they all stayed at home to avoid the wind, snow and severe cold.
"Let's go into the town, find a restaurant to eat first, and then go to the mansion outside the housekeeper."
Wei Tao walked forward slowly as he spoke, "We didn't investigate there carefully before, let's see if we can find anything else this time."
Soon after, the two came to a restaurant.
After being seated, I randomly ordered a few dishes of stir-fry and a pot of stew, and slowly ate with the staple food.
Wei Tao ate very slowly, and most of the time he just sat there quietly, watching other people's every move with some fascination.
From the guys to the diners, and the pedestrians passing by outside from time to time, they all brought him inexplicable and strange feelings.
Even driven by this strange feeling, Wei Taoyu used the God-watching Qi technique to observe more deeply, but he still didn't find any abnormalities.
On the surface at least, everything looks normal.
In his perception, everyone is an ordinary person, without any weird aura, and there is nothing wrong with the food on the table.
But for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what went wrong.
After observing and thinking for a while, Wei Tao's heart suddenly moved, and he discovered a certain situation that he had ignored.
The words and deeds of these people inside and outside the restaurant seem to be somewhat inconsistent with their identities.
In other words, as a restaurant opened in the gold drying field, most of the people who come and go are laborers who make a living, and the atmosphere of eating inside seems too quiet.
There is no bragging in full swing, and there is no red-faced wine fight. Listen carefully to the topics of their conversation, and there is not much about gambling and women. It is not normal to be true.
Not long after, Liu Qingyuan moved closer and said in a low voice, "Sir, this town is a bit strange, and there are false feelings everywhere."
Wei Tao nodded slightly, agreeing to this.
The falseness Liu Qingyuan mentioned may not mean that the town and its residents are false.
Because they are indeed real existences, and they are definitely not hallucinations brought about by mystical delusions.
To be precise, these people seem to be performing.
It was as if a stage was built, and the daily life of Sunjinchang was performed in front of him, allowing him to watch and blend in.
And here, he is not only an audience, he can watch other people's performances, but he is also on the stage, and he also becomes an actor.
"We're full, then let's go."
Wei Tao remained calm, and beckoned to the restaurant guy to settle the bill.
While waiting for change, he pretended to inadvertently ask, "The house member who used to live here, has moved out now?"
The clerk raised his head, as if he hadn't woken up, his eyes were still a little dazed, "What is the guest officer looking for outside the housekeeper?"
Wei Tao said, "We are distant relatives other than the room staff. This time we made a special trip from our hometown to visit his old man's house, but in the end we missed it. We don't know what happened."
"Oh, the house member's family has been wiped out."
The waiter at the restaurant weighed the broken silver and retrieved a row of coins. He kept saying, "This happened more than half a year ago. The house member's family got involved with the Qinglian Sect for some reason, and was arrested by the government." Send someone over and execute him on the spot."
His expression was calm and indifferent from the beginning to the end, and his tone didn't change much, as if Wei Tao was asking the guest officer what he wanted to eat when he just entered the store.
Wei Tao showed a surprised expression at the right time, with a little worry and fear in his eyes.
"Is that so?"
"Thank you, little brother. I suddenly remembered that my family and the room staff are actually not too close relatives. They are not included in the fifth server at all. I have never had contact with them before, so I am not familiar with them at all."
He immediately got up, pulled Liu Qingyuan and walked out, not even picking up the copper coins on the table.
The restaurant clerk stood there motionless, watching the two go out, his eyes became scattered and dazed again.
After a long time, he put away the copper coins on the table and began to slowly clean up the untouched food.
"Sir, what shall we do next?"
Liu Qingyuan asked when he went straight out of the Shimen archway of the gold drying field.
"The situation here doesn't seem to be that simple."
"Especially the few conversations with the restaurant clerk at the end reminded me of the servants of the house clerk's family, but I didn't feel any traces of the existence of Weisi on him.
Unless I killed him and cut him open to find him, I can't be sure what's going on. "
Wei Tao looked back at the silent market town, and quickly made a decision, "Let's go to Gui Shufang's manor now. I suspect that the strangeness of the sun-gold farm may have something to do with it."
After a pause, he added, "Others are not yet at the level of mystic perception. It is best to let them go back the same way directly to avoid unnecessary losses."
The carriage moved slowly along the road.
The maid Xiaoyi was still a little unhappy.
Because she also wanted to go to that manor with the young lady, and take a look at the secluded place where Gui Shufang lived in seclusion, which made the court and the sect restless.
It's just that the lady's order cannot be disobeyed.
And because it was Wei Daozi's decision, she didn't dare to have the slightest doubt.
Xiaoyi thought aimlessly, and wrapped her cloak tighter.
Suddenly, a light flashed in her eyes, and she tightened the rein in her hand.
The carriage stopped slowly by the side of the road.
Xiaoyi's face was cold and serious, staring at the slender figure not far in front of her.
His eyes fell on the plain white paper umbrella that was slowly turning not far away, and his body tensed to the extreme involuntarily.
The next moment, Xiaoyi found that she couldn't move anymore.
Even if he tried his best to mobilize his qi and blood, the power that originally moved at will was like a pool of stagnant water, unable to function at all.
"I didn't expect that after a short time, we will meet again, which is considered very fate."
A voice as warm as water sounded quietly.
Xiaoyi watched the other party slowly approaching, approaching little by little.
But his whole body was stiff and cold, and he couldn't make any response.
"Even the thought of resistance can't arise."
"This feeling of hopeless horror."
"She said it was fate that we met again, but why do I have no memory at all, and I can't remember where I saw her?"
Xiaoyi's heart was ashamed, and she had fallen into despair.
She didn't know if the companion who explored the way ahead was still alive, but after thinking about it, even if she knew it, it wouldn't help.
Because in this situation, she can do nothing but allow the situation to accelerate in an unpredictable direction.
However, Xiaoyi's despair didn't last too long, after only two or three breaths, that slender figure was already standing in front of the carriage.
"Forget it, meeting on the left side of the road means fate, since I can meet you again, how about I help you improve your strength a little bit?"
A melodious woman's voice sounded in her ears, but it exploded in Xiaoyi's heart like a thunderbolt.
She stared blankly at those eyes that were as bright as stars, and suddenly felt a little cold in her body.
It was as if everything was completely exposed under those eyes, and there were no more secrets to speak of.
Even wearing a thick cotton-padded cloak can't stop the chill from attacking.
The next moment, the carriage door was gently opened, she glanced inside, turned around and stroked the mane of the horse pulling the carriage, and sighed leisurely.
"You just went to the town called Sun Gold Field. Did the two people who were sitting in the carriage stay there?"
Xiaoyi sat motionless, like a clay statue.
Hearing her question, he nodded subconsciously.
She was silent for a moment, and a smile gradually appeared on her face, "Liu Qingyuan is really a very interesting person, even I didn't expect that she would be able to get rid of the influence again, and maybe even guessed my name directly without any clues. place."
"It's just that with Miss Liu's tact and caution, she shouldn't have done such an outrageous thing, so it's the other person in the carriage who can make her make up her mind."
Speaking of this, she smiled more and more, "If I guessed correctly, the other person is a young man, and he is Daozi Wei of Qinglin Mountain Yuanyi. Do you think I am right or not?"
Xiaoyi couldn't say a word, and she didn't even dare to look at her, for fear that the other party would notice something in her eyes.
She didn't care about this, her expression was thoughtful, she looked over the carriage and looked into the distance, "My guess just now may be wrong, if Wei Daozi really wanted to come to Gui Shufang's former residence, then it is very likely that he vaguely I noticed something, not because of the relationship between Liu Qingyuan and me."
"After all, he is very likely to be the soldier in the military town of the Cangmang Mountain Range, who inherited some things I left behind, so it is normal to have this feeling.
However, he and I came too late. The current manor is really just a ruin. Even if we can see, hear, and perceive anything from it, it is nothing more than what has happened. .
Even the town named Sunjinchang has become very different from the towns where other people live. "
Speaking of this, she seemed to have some rare hesitation.
After standing by the carriage for a long time, she suddenly asked, "Tell me, should I go see him now?"
Xiaoyi's body trembled without warning, and found that she had regained the ability to move.
But faced with this question, she didn't know how to answer it.
Because that person was not really asking for her opinion, but because of some concerns that she was completely unaware of, she was thinking and weighing, and hadn't made a decision yet.
If she pretends to be smart and says something, she will really become a fool.
A gust of cold wind blew through, rolling up the broken snow like fog.
That figure has disappeared without a trace, leaving no trace.
Xiaoyi let out a heavy breath, and was about to abandon the carriage and turn back in the direction she came from as quickly as possible.
But she only took a few steps forward, but her eyes were inexplicably black, her consciousness was blank, and she completely forgot what she wanted to do and what happened just now.
At this moment, in the gold sunning field.
Bingyun and Youli slowly walked into the town.
They walked tens of meters along the only street, turned around and entered the only restaurant that was open.
Bingyun randomly chose a place against the wall and sat down, habitually observing the surrounding environment.
"What would you like to eat, officer?" the shop clerk walked over slowly and asked.
You Li's eyes fell on the shop assistant, and he frowned slightly.
As the waiter in the store, this person not only moves slowly, but also has a dazed expression, and even speaks a bit vaguely, with slurred words.
Wouldn't it be smashing the restaurant's signboard to let him receive guests?
She was silent for a while, and pointed to the menu board hanging above the counter, "Can those signature dishes be made now?"
The store clerk said, "It can be done, but it will take a little longer. If the two guest officers are not in a hurry..."
"Forget it, we won't eat."
Bingyun suddenly spoke at this moment, interrupting the shop assistant's speech, and at the same time got up and walked outside.
But just as he got up from the chair, he sat down slowly.
Bingyun narrowed his eyes slightly, watching a person who was covered in a gray robe, even his face was covered by a hood, and slowly walked in from outside the shop.
There were obviously many empty tables in the restaurant, but the man sat directly opposite him, and then lifted his hood, revealing an ordinary middle-aged man's face.
"You are warriors from the Northern Wilderness."
The middle-aged man said slowly, "And they are two martial arts masters who have broken through the boundary between heaven and man."
Bingyun was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled, "Who are you, since you know our identity, you dare to be so presumptuous?"
The man didn't answer his question, but continued on his own, "With the strength of the two of you, it's easy to kill me, even if you wipe out the whole town, it won't waste too much of your time.
But it doesn't make much sense, it's like a girl who is more powerful than you came over yesterday, and a couple who just left the town before you, they didn't do this meaningless thing. "
Bingyun's smile disappeared, and her expression gradually became serious, "Who are those three people you mentioned?"
The middle-aged man shook his head, "They are still very young, so naturally I don't know their names, at most I can guess from some details that two of them are disciples of the Xuanwu Dao, and the other should be an official of the Tourist Division. "
"You also met them like this?" Bingyun asked.
"No, I just glanced at them a few times. I didn't sit across from them and talk to them like I am now."
Bingyun tapped the table lightly with her fingers, and the sound of duk tu rang out in circles.
The face of the middle-aged man on the opposite side suddenly turned pale, fine cold sweat oozes from his forehead, and even a ray of blood overflows from the corner of his lips.
He stopped at this moment, thought slowly and said, "I observed again and again and found that you are indeed just an ordinary person, but in the end you can directly see the identity of a Xuanwu Dao disciple and an official of the Tourist Department.
All these things really make me a little curious about what kind of secrets you are hiding. "
The middle-aged man wiped the blood from his mouth, but his expression was still calm, and his tone did not show any ups and downs, "The secret is in the destroyed villa outside the town, and you can search for it at any time.
However, it is better for the two of you to wait for a while before going, so as not to meet the young man and woman who arrived one step earlier. "
"It's just a Xuanwu disciple. Unless it's Sun Xiyue who has long since disappeared, I don't care about others at all."
Bingyun lowered her eyes, with a faint smile on her face, "But compared to them, you make me more curious.
After all, as a member of the Great Zhou Dynasty, what is the point of appearing in front of us and two Northern Wilderness warriors instead of going to interview with Xuanwu disciples and patrol officers? "
"Could it be that you are tired of the day-to-day hard life and want to rely on us to seek prosperity and wealth?"
"Prosperity and wealth are like passing clouds to me, and they are not worth mentioning at all.
But it is precisely because the two of you came from the Northern Wilderness that I came before you. "
The man paused at this point, and his voice suddenly became distorted when he spoke again, "You should know Luo Qingjun, I hope you can bring her a word when you go back."
"Luo Qingjun..."
Bingyu took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly, "Who is Luo Qingjun?"
You Li's eyes sparkled, and he also showed a puzzled expression.
"Have you never heard of this name?"
The middle-aged man frowned for the first time since he appeared, and continued after a while, "One of the seven sects of the Great Zhou Sect, Luo Daozi of the Dingxuan sect, do you know?"
Youli couldn't help but sighed, and said in a strange tone, "Seeing that you are not very old, why are you talking about old things from decades ago?
I just remembered Luo Qingjun's name, but she was Dingxuan Taoist 30 years ago, and she has been sitting in the position of Dingxuan's head since then, and she is no longer alive. "
"So that's it. I really don't know a lot of things. Thank you both for clarifying my doubts."
The middle-aged man nodded, but then said something that surprised both of them.
"Luo Qingjun is not dead, he is in Beihuang right now."
A light flashed in Bingyu's eyes, and his voice suddenly became very soft, "What proof do you have for saying this?"
"The evidence is that Brahma gave birth to the spirit of heaven. If she wasn't in the Northern Wilderness, how could she connect with Brahma spiritually and try to suppress me?
I was able to talk to the two of them face to face, which was the result of her borrowing the power of Brahma's spiritual power. "
The middle-aged man was still talking, there was a transparent hole between the eyebrows without any sign, and the sticky brain inside could be clearly seen.
His voice stopped abruptly, he slid slowly from the wooden chair, and fell to the ground with a thud, without even struggling, he lost all his life.
Although the person died, the shopkeeper of the restaurant and the other two tables of guests turned a blind eye to it, turned a deaf ear to it, and were still doing their own things, as if the corpse on the ground did not exist at all.
"Youli, what are you doing?"
Bingyun slowly turned his head to look, his eyes were gloomy and his expression was gloomy.
"Master Bingyun, do you feel that our spirit seems to be affected unconsciously?"
Youli's tone was serious, "I practice Youshen thorn, and I'm the most sensitive to this kind of change, but I only discovered something wrong just now."
Bingyun closed his eyes, carefully perceiving.
After a while, he exhaled lightly, "You are right, he is just an ordinary person, but he can exert a spiritual influence on our two martial arts masters, which is simply beyond my imagination."
Youli asked, "What is Master Bingyun going to do?"
"This town is not normal."
Bingyun looked around for a week, "Kill all the people here, and then go to Gui Shufang's manor, maybe you can meet Xuanwu Dao disciples, and you can ask more things from him."
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded and passed into the ears of the two.
Bingyun turned her head to look and found that it was the restaurant guy who was speaking.
"Don't be impatient, you two. After I finish what I have to say, it's not too late for you to kill people, even Tuzhen."
As soon as the shop assistant's voice fell, his whole body suddenly became stiff, his face was covered with a layer of blue ice crystals, and he also fell to the ground, losing his breath of life in an instant.
"I hope the two of you will go back and tell Luo Qingjun..."
Almost at the same time as the restaurant guy fell down, a diner sitting in the distance turned his head ninety degrees and took the conversation.
In the middle of his speech, he fell limply on the table, the cups, plates and saucers knocked to the ground, and the wine, water and vegetable soup splashed everywhere.
"Da Fansheng's spiritual meaning can't be borrowed at will, as she thought."
The guest on the second table continued to speak, and died just after saying a word.
Immediately afterwards, the owner of the restaurant sat up straight from behind the counter, "She wanted to use Brahma's spirit, but she didn't understand some key points, and she didn't know that if you borrow something, you must pay it back. There is no reason in the world that you only borrow and don't pay back."
This time, Bingyun didn't do anything again, and Youli also remained silent, quietly listening to what the restaurant manager had to say.
"If Luo Qingjun continues like this, he will die without a place to bury him. Why don't we let her and I separate..."
As the shopkeeper of the restaurant said, blood gushed out of his seven orifices suddenly, and he died on the spot, following in the footsteps of everyone else in the restaurant.
"The last one is not my shot."
Youli's spirit suddenly rose, and he looked around vigilantly.
Bingyun shook his head slowly, "I didn't make a move either, but he just died in front of our eyes."
After being silent for a long time, he suddenly revealed an inexplicable smile, "I have practiced the secret method passed down from generation to generation in my tribe since I was a child. After going through all kinds of hardships and hardships, I have overcome many obstacles and tests, and finally became a master of martial arts.
Afterwards, he did not dare to relax and slack off, and continued to practice hard day and night, until he touched the threshold of Yin and Yang, and glimpsed a wonderful and mysterious scenery inside. "
"Along the way, I have forgotten how many warriors I have defeated and how many enemies I have killed, but I have never had such a fantastic and weird experience like today.
Even though I was only facing a few ordinary people who couldn't even transfer Qi and blood, it actually gave me an inexplicable sense of fear. "
Bingyun shook her head and sighed, wiped off a little sweat on her forehead, got up and walked towards the outside of the store.
This time, no one spoke.
They were not hindered in any way.
Youli stopped in front of the door, and looked back at the corpses in different shapes, "Master Bingyun, do we still want to erase the whole town?"
"No, no one here can die anymore."
Bingyun looked up at the dark sky, and reached out to catch the snowflakes that started to fall again, "If I kill another ordinary person in this town, my state of mind will be affected irresistibly.
This is the warning given to me by Dafan Shengtian, but it is also an opportunity for me to go further. "
"I must thank You Li this time. If it wasn't for the information you provided, I wouldn't have come here."
He looked down at the snowflake growing rapidly in the palm of his hand, and the color became blue and crystal clear, his eyes filled with more and more light, "I can't kill the residents of the small town, but I can't vent the murderous intent that has just risen in my heart. The depression has been accumulated in the chest, but it is like a fire burn, which is unbearable.
I hope to meet those two Xuanwu disciples in the near future, so that I can fully vent my murderous intentions that I have nowhere to release, so that I can greet the spiritual meaning of the Great Brahma in a more transparent state of mind later. "
…………
………………
After less than a day of rest, the wind and snow enveloped the world again.
Wei Tao and Liu Qingyuan walked through the woods, and stopped in front of the manor that was completely invisible.
He did not go directly into it, but carefully observed the perception from the outside.
"Someone has indeed been here."
After a while, Wei Tao squatted down, stretched out his hands to touch the slightly scorched ground, and turned his head to look at the boots Liu Qingyuan was wearing.
"It should be a woman. Her feet are about the same size as yours, and they seem to be a little smaller."
Liu Qingyuan's face flushed slightly, and she coughed lightly, "What else did you find?"
"I didn't find anything else."
Wei Tao is still observing the almost none footprints, and then expands the search area.
It wasn't until they were more than ten meters away that they saw another trace.
He frowned slightly, "The distance between two steps is about five feet, the key is that her footprints are so shallow, which shows that her level of strength is extraordinary.
Of course, it is also possible that she has practiced some kind of movement technique, so that she can cross such a long distance silently without exerting force on her legs.
It's like Dingxuan Palace. At the beginning, I chased and fled with her, running a distance of hundreds of miles in the wilderness. Compared with my step-by-step lotus growth, she moved forward like the wind and misty, without a trace of fireworks . "
Wei Tao restrained his thoughts and continued to walk inward.
According to the location described in Feng Qingping's delusion, and then searched for the memories left in the manor before, passed through the ruined ruins, and approached the original garden bit by bit.
Liu Qingyuan followed silently, watching the scorched mess appearing on the ground from time to time, and recalling the description of Gui Shufang in the case files, she couldn't help being dazed for a while.
The inexplicable emotion that life is unpredictable and the world is unspeakable is born.
There was a slight click.
Wei Tao stepped on a dead branch.
He stopped at this moment, looked down at the broken stone tablet lying on the ground not far ahead, and slowly read three words that had not been completely erased.
"Guishu imitation."
Next, he passed the stele and saw the five-foot-square, dark hole leading to the ground.
In the pile of rocks not far away, there is obviously newly excavated soil, which forms an extremely sharp contrast with the surrounding gray and black traces.
"This should be the location of the Gui Family Ancestral Hall."
Liu Qingyuan stepped forward, recalling slowly and said, "At the beginning, my husband and I also searched the area carefully for a long time, but we didn't find such a hole leading to the ground."
Wei Tao didn't speak, Feng Qingping's description of delusions flashed in his mind.
A middle-aged man walked up the gloomy and gloomy steps, exuding a horrifying bloody aura all over his body.
"So, Liu Qingyuan's guess is very likely to be correct, just last night, or the night before, someone really went to the Luoshui Tour Division to look for her.
And that person also came to this manor just as she had imagined, and dug the hole that appeared in Feng Qingping's delusion. "
"I still don't know what's hidden underneath, and why Guishu's imitation failed 30 years ago, and it hasn't really been brought back to light until now."
Wei Tao thought silently, looked down into the cave, and could only see a section of stairs close to the ground, and then down there was a turning, inside which he couldn't see his fingers, so it was impossible to see where it led.
Picking up a stone from his feet, he flicked it lightly with his fingers, the tinkling sound was endless, and he barely stopped after a few breaths.
"It seems that we still need to go down and investigate in person to find out what is hidden inside."
Wei Tao took a deep breath of cold air, and took out a few torches from his carry-on luggage, "I'll go down first, and you will follow. We are separated by eight to ten steps. If there is any situation, call the police immediately."
"Understood, sir, be careful, it's very dark inside, I'm afraid it's..."
Before Liu Qingyuan finished speaking, she kept silent without warning.
She had a puzzled expression on her face, and her eyes became scattered and confused.
The whole person fell limply to the side and fell asleep right there.
Long before she opened her mouth to speak, Wei Tao had already turned around and looked towards the depths of the wind and snow on one side.
boom!
Right at this moment.
In his eyes, everything disappeared in an instant.
There was no flying snow all over the sky, no ruins, and even Liu Qingyuan, who was supported by him just now, was nowhere to be seen.
In his line of sight, only endless darkness remained.
And a pair of eyes that slowly light up in the darkness.
Those were a pair of eyes that were sparkling with autumn water and as bright as stars.
Exuding a breathtakingly bright light, it appeared from the deepest part of the darkness, watching over it silently.
In an instant, countless images swirled in front of Wei Tao's eyes like a revolving lantern.
Under the gaze of those eyes, he suddenly felt as if he was facing an abyss, walking on thin ice, and felt a danger that he had not experienced for a long time.
Wei Tao calmed down, but his spirit suddenly rose.
He was not moved at all by the flashing images, but slowly but resolutely, he took a step forward towards the pair of star-like shining eyes in the distance.
boom!
All the illusions disappeared at this moment, and everything returned to the state where he and Liu Qingyuan had just come here.
The cold wind howled and the snowflakes flew.
The broken stone tablet lay on the ground, and the gloomy and dark hole lay in front of it.
But those eyes that were as bright as stars had disappeared, disappeared like yellow cranes without a trace.
"Who is the owner of those eyes?"
"The two slender footprints found in the manor, are they left by the owner of the eyes?"
"Is she the mysterious person looking for Liu Qingyuan?"
"More importantly, looking at these eyes, why does it give me a strangely familiar feeling?"
A series of questions came to mind, which made Wei Tao feel a little worried.
Even the pitch-black hole next to it lost its original appeal.
He took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly, using all his strength to use the God-watching Qi Technique, trying to capture the opponent's Qi again.
In the end, nothing was achieved, and it was in vain.
Because at the same time when God Watching Qi Art was activated, two figures in black robes and hoods appeared in Wei Tao's line of sight.
The aura of martial arts master transformed from heaven and man immediately shattered the surrounding wind and snow environment, covering up the seemingly invisible aura, completely disrupting his efforts to search for it with the technique of watching the gods and looking at the aura.
Bingyun stopped slowly, looking through the wind and snow.
Looking at the two figures standing together in front of him, he smiled and sighed leisurely, "This person should be that Xuanwu disciple, and I have already smelled the sweet scent of killing."
You Li folded his hands in his sleeves, and exhaled softly, "He also has a beautiful girl in his arms. In this icy and snowy place, where there are ashes after burning, the two sect disciples are quite interesting."
With a blank face and cold eyes, Wei Tao slowly took a step forward, protecting Liu Qingyuan who had just woken up.
At the moment when the two men in black robes appeared, several thoughts flashed through his mind.
"It's completely beyond my expectations. This feeling should be two Northern Wilderness masters, and they actually appeared in the ruins of Gui Shufang's manor!?"
"If the owner of those eyes is also with the two Northern Wilderness Grandmasters, I'm afraid this battle will be quite difficult, and there is a high possibility that they will lose and die."
He quickly restrained his thoughts, and said in a calm tone, "You go now, don't look back."
Liu Qingyuan gritted her teeth and said, "What about Mr.?"
"The two people on the opposite side have locked our breath, so you can go, but I can't go now.
But whoever wants me to die, I will drag him into the Underworld! "
Wei Tao lowered his eyes, his aura suddenly restrained like a rock.
Immediately afterwards, his body sank and began to gather momentum.
It's like an extremely depressed submarine volcano.
It will suddenly erupt at some point, destroying everything around it.
