Mysterious Martial Arts: The Record of the Swordsman

Chapter 88

At this time, the sound outside the cave gradually disappeared, only the cold wind blowing in the deserted night, the treetops and bushes made noise repeatedly, and the chill slowly poured into the stone room along the entrance of the cave.

The cold moon slanted into the hole, like a layer of hoarfrost hanging on the tiles.

There are many paper figurines in the stone room, without the control of silk thread and candlelight, the chessboard stone is like a stone coffin, surrounded by a circle of colorful paper figurines who were buried with the dead, and it is eerie and strange to be in it.

"No more delay, let's go out first."

Jiang Wen stopped exercising, and slowly guided his inner breath back into the sea of ​​energy, "The White Lotus Sect should have left."

"It's strange, the monster of the White Lotus Sect seems to have really stopped moving!"

Yuan Huazi listened intently for a moment, then said anxiously, "It is said that the Holy Child of the White Lotus Sect is sinister and extremely ugly, and can scare a child to tears just by looking at his appearance. Be careful in ambush."

"The holy boy can make children cry at night? Then Zhang Liao can hedge against it."

Jiang Wenhun stood up nonchalantly, and patted the dust on his clothes: "Ambush is not a possibility. The other party has been picking me up from the bottom of the mountain. The strife just now was just a tactic of suspicious soldiers. The White Lotus Sect has always acted like this."

"What is true is false, what is false is true. This time they sent a lot of masters, but not many. They were unable to divide their troops to besiege them in order to act secretly. They must have joined forces to pursue more valuable people."

The sounds outside the cave just now seemed majestic, but most of them were forged by relying on ventriloquism and utensils. It can only be said that they have used ancient color tricks to their peak.

Yuan Huazi was shocked when he heard this: "No! They must have gone after my apprentice!"

Jiang Wen frowned: "Really, the Taoist priest was not taken away with you?"

Yuan Huazi said angrily: "My apprentice stole the artifacts from our sect last night, and he disappeared earlier. Now that the White Lotus Sect didn't get what they wanted from me, they must be chasing him! "

There have always been only two Taoist priests in Huixianguan. Jiang Wen didn't even ask him his Taoist name, and kept calling him Daochang Daochang. He didn't notice any contradiction between the old and the young?

Jiang Wen always felt that this old Taoist priest was acting strange tonight.

"Really, no matter what, I will send you down the mountain first, and I am afraid that things will change if I stay here."

Jiang Wen deliberated for a moment, but first made up his mind to rescue one by one. Yuan Huazi also agreed with a tangled expression. After making sure that there was no ambush at the entrance of the cave, he slowly left the Hansi Pavilion.

But not long after Jiang Wen and the two left, a paper figurine in Chinese clothes suddenly shook in the cave, as if something was about to hatch out of it, which was vague and unreal.

After a while, the large Tianguan paper figurine was suddenly overturned to the ground, and a short figure emerged from the paper torn from the bottom.

"It's no wonder the saintess of this religion said that this person is extremely difficult to deal with. Unexpectedly, intelligence and martial arts are tricky."

A black-faced boy wearing a white crane feather coat was looking at the eight old and new corpses on the ground with an extremely ugly expression on his face.

He is the Red Sun Holy Child led by the White Lotus Sect this time. After meeting Jiang Wen just now, he was so angry that he couldn't escape from the cave, so he took advantage of the gap between the eight generals of Qingshan to hide in the paper figurine I have been holding my breath in the middle of the day—these paper figurines are made by skillful craftsmen, and they are terrific and terrifying under the lamp, in the dark, and they are just used as hiding places.

Because he was cut off by Caisheng in his early years, he has a special appearance, so he has been using the eight generals of Qingshan to guide Baihe Boy to hide his identity.

The usual opponents would never have imagined that the ninth person next to the eighth general who would not die or hurt Qingshan on the opposite side would be a child-like internal master, so he was often easily plotted against.

"Han Yuan Shou Gong Xiang has already been obtained, so it's okay to not have the secret recipe for now."

The Holy Child of Hongyang was as skinny as a zombie, without any sacred appearance, and his expression was also ghastly, but such a terrifying appearance made people believe in ghosts and gods the most while being shocked.

"The God General Liujia has already gone to arrest the little Taoist priest and snatch the talisman of ascending the stars. The Goddess Liuding originally stayed in the Zhizhi Nunnery to guard against the young Taoist priests. Two of them have not returned yet. They presumably followed her secretly. Waiting for this Teach people and horses to meet in one place, and it will be a pity for the eight generals of Qingshan..."

He slowly reviewed the records in the "Book of Immortal Promotion", while digesting what Jiang Wen and Yuan Huazi had just said.

"These two people haven't read "The Book of Ascension to the Immortal", so they must not know the mystery. As long as I get these two things, the Jiahe Ascension to the Immortal Banquet will be in front of my eyes."

…………

Dawang Peak was miserable last month, and the mourning wind was blowing, as if something ominous was haunting the mountain, and there were always faint footsteps following along the way, but it disappeared without a trace when you focused your eyes.

Yuan Ziyi and Yan Yongchun hurried up the mountain, and according to Jiang Wen's description, passed through Tianjianchi from Zhang Xianyan, and saw countless corpses hanging in coffins in the dark depressions, and they were terrified along the way.

They didn't see the main hall of the sect that Jiang Wen was talking about until they arrived at the Tongtian Rock smoothly, but only saw a few thatched huts swaying in the night wind.

The second daughter searched for a long time but couldn't find anyone, and finally saw a floating little head in a big tank...

Xiao Shitou lay sleeping in the medicine vat and was woken up in the middle of the night, staring at the stranger in front of him in a daze.

Looking at the child in front of him, Yuan Ziyi was a little dazed—why did he sleep in the water tank?
And she still remembered Jiang Wen confidently telling herself that the top disciples of the Wuyi sect were staying on the mountain, and they would not be in danger as long as they went up the mountain.

Yuan Ziyi thought that he would meet the young knight trained by Jiang Wen, but the one in front of him was obviously still a child...

"...You are Xiao Shitou? We are your master's friends, and we sent Wending and Ningdie back."

No matter what, Yuan Ziyi still showed a spring breeze, smiling like a bright moon shining on a flower, she was confident that this appearance could easily win the trust of children, and inquire about this Wuyi faction.

Xiao Shitou scratched his head, glanced at the unconscious Ning Die and the stupid Wending, showing extremely ignorant expressions.

"Oh, put them in the house then."

After finishing speaking, he did not hesitate to lie back in the tank.

Yuan Ziyi hurriedly stopped Xiao Shitou from lying down.

"Wait a minute, your master hasn't come back yet, aren't you worried?"

Little Stone thought about it expressionlessly.

"Master said, you don't have to wait for him if he doesn't come back. He also reminded me to boil the pot and put the medicine in. It's cold outside and soak in the pot."

Yan Yongchun and Yuan Ziyi were dumbfounded and thought for a long time, but they really couldn't figure out what this meant, why the disciples of Jiang Wen's family would stay awake in the middle of the night and soak in the medicine jar.

Worried about causing trouble to others, Yan Yongchun quickly asked Xiao Shitou, "Little Shitou, is there anyone else on the mountain? Has your master told you anything else?"

Little Stone thought about it for a long time, then shook his head.

"Grandpa Ye and I were the only ones on the mountain. In the evening, he stayed with me when he saw that Master hadn't come back. He should be sleeping in the room by the Tianjian Pond now."

After Yuan Ziyi asked a few more questions, the more he listened, the more frightened he became. It turned out that in the Wuyi faction, only this silly little apprentice and groom Lao Ye were left guarding.

The White Lotus Sect must still be following secretly at this time, if they kill them, the two of them may not be able to protect the elder and the younger.

Yuan Ziyi and Yan Yongchun looked at each other, and they both sensed the other's meaning.

"Sister Ziyi, you guys hide on the top of the mountain. I'll go down the mountain to see if the White Lotus Sect has followed."

Yan Wing Chun spoke first.

Among them, she has the highest level of martial arts and is in the best condition at this time, so she feels that she is duty-bound.As long as there is a delay for a while, Yuan Ziyi will be more confident and escape from the tiger's mouth with the old and the young.

Suddenly, there was the sound of horseshoes on the mountain road, and not long after, an old man with a somewhat stooped figure was walking up the stone steps leading his horse.

"You two must be guests of the head of the sect. The old man went to patrol the mountains with his horse just now, and he failed to welcome him from afar, but he hoped to make amends."

The groom, Lao Ye, is thin and fragile, trying to speak quack clichés, looking a little stiff, and trying his best to appease the agitated tall horse.

"Mountain Patrol? Why didn't we see you just now? Didn't you encounter anything strange?"

Yuan Ziyi asked suspiciously.

"The old man was patrolling the mountain trails. He didn't meet the two of you, and he didn't see anything unusual. He was bitten by a locust twice on his leg..."

The old groom Yen Nervously argued, he just patted the cloth bag on the horse's back, as if it contained something heavy.
