A Sword Breaks the Path of Life and Death

"But now these people have almost given up, because they really can't find any clues; they can only occasionally hear clear echoes in the jade mine, like they are emanating from the ground, but no matter how much they dig down, they can find them. to the source."

"At present, the most troublesome thing about this task is not the danger, but that it belongs to the category of intractable diseases. It is estimated that if it hangs for a few more months, if no one solves it, it will be cancelled."

Hearing this, Chu Mo looked at Su Che, "Look, this is useless, at least we know that the ice field is haunted, as long as we catch the ghost and remove the evil, we can finish it. In the end, we will drive at full speed, it won't take too long. ."

Su Che thanked the disciple who took the initiative to explain, and then said, "Vote to solve it, raise your hand to the icefield."

Chu Mo raised his hand alone.

"Raise your hand to catch the giant salamander."

Chen Tianyin raised their hands.

"Jade mine~" Su Che and Yun Yaoyao raised them at the same time, then Su Che smiled and looked at Chu Mo, "Choose one side."

Chu Mo was speechless, "Then let's go to the jade mine, I don't want to grab anything that is slippery and full of mucus."

Zhang Xueer put down her hands a little regretfully after hearing this, and Chen Tianyin just comforted her and said to go next time.

After the negotiation, Su Che picked it up and grabbed the sign that said the echo of the jade mine.

What's amazing is that there is an identical brand on the spot immediately, which means that this task is not unique. The more people the sect encourages to find the reason, the better.

Of course, if the cultivation base is too low, don't join in the fun. People in the first realm of these three brands can't catch them if they want to.

Watching Su Che and his party finish the task and leave with a smile, many people started talking about it, "Do you think they can do it?"

A short-haired man shook his head, "I don't have much hope, it's not that I look down on them, it's not about fighting power."

"I think my hope is on metaphysics. Maybe they will go to the old man in the mountains for help? I remember that Su Che and the old man in the mountains went to the Blood God Cave a while ago. They should have a good relationship." The long-faced Taoist said earlier. .

"Here, come, the market is open!" A red-faced squat Daoist appeared out of nowhere, and was selling Su Che and the others the betting market.

It is worth mentioning that the person who opened the inner door competition last time also had him, or he never missed any opportunity to make money.

When Su Che and the others left, some people looked at them with unwilling eyes, but finally lowered their heads sadly.Including those few people who had a holiday with Su Che when he started.

If it was said that a few years ago, they were still thinking about revenge, but now this idea has almost ended on its own; because the gap between the two sides has been pulled too far, the so-called revenge is too ridiculous, it's just hitting the stone with a pebble.

Su Che himself is very clear about this, his future opponents are outside the sect, not inside the sect.

-------------------------------

Before leaving, Su Che went back to Tianfu Peak and talked to his senior sister; he also contacted Shixiu through Yin-Yang Ring, saying that he might not come back for half a month, and his practice would be postponed accordingly.

Shixiu was silent for a while, but just asked Su Che to come back sooner, and said that he should be able to break through to the fourth realm with just one or two more double cultivation.

Su Che guessed it was the same, because Shixiu said that the double cultivation in the sect was a great achievement, not to mention the second, third, and fourth subsequent times, Su Che actively cooperated.

In this way, the pressure will come to Su Che's side, and he has to work hard as soon as possible.

After packing up, Su Che and a few friends gathered outside the sect.

Before leaving this time, Su Che planned to visit the old man in the mountains, and asked him to do some calculations before they set off.Although this is not a large-scale task, of course, since it is done, we must go all out.

It just so happened that the old man in the mountains had been with Xuetian Zhenren for a while, and he wanted to see the girl who came because of him, so it was very convenient for Su Che to want to see him, and he could also take a look at the little remnant star.

......

During this visit, Su Che and the others didn't stay too long. After getting the results, they thanked them and left, and said goodbye to the real people and the stupid children.

When Yu Jian flew to the northern part of the Kunlun Mountains, Chen Tianyin frowned and asked, "What does the sixth line of the No Gua mean?"

Yun Yaoyao repeated the hexagram words that the old man in the mountain had just said, "Shangjiu, lean or not; first or not, then happy. Xiang said: otherwise, it will end, so how can you grow."

Chu Mo felt dizzy, "I feel like playing a dumb riddle. Su Che, you left in a hurry without asking someone to explain it in detail. Are you so confident?"

Su Che smiled, "Isn't it very simple? Overturning means overturning; no, it means blocking and blocking. Together, the situation of blocking and blocking has undergone earth-shaking changes.

"It's a little simpler: the mountains and rivers have no way to go, and the willows are dark and flowers are bright. There is another village. This is an auspicious hexagram."

Zhang Xueer thought thoughtfully, "I understand, which means that we won't gain much at the beginning, and we will completely fall into a dead end, but we will usher in a major turning point later."

"Yes, that's the truth." Su Che nodded, "Of course, the old man in the mountains also said that he is not a god, let alone a god who knows all the secrets. It's normal to be wrong three or four times ten times. Maybe this It's wrong."

Chu Mo squinted at Su Che, "I hope it's your fault, we'll be lucky and you're the worst offender."

Su Che wanted to flick her forehead, "Be careful."

Chu Mo just made a grimace in response, which made several people burst into laughter.

After flying for half a day, the four of them came to the Tianzi No. 20 No. [-] jade mine in the north.What you see in front of you is a lush mountain range, but when you look up, there is a frozen snow mountain in the distance.

This is because it has reached the border area where the Taihao Sect influences radiate. It is impossible for the founder of the sect to change the climate of the entire Kunlun Mountains. It is just a big circle, but it is wide enough.

Relatively speaking, the No. 20 No. [-] jade mine is also the one farthest from Taihaozong. It is hidden among the mountains below, covered by restrictions, and outsiders cannot detect it even if they fly by.

Chapter 12 Hearts

Holding the sect jade pendant, the four of Su Che went straight to the verdant peak of Jiamu and fell, and finally passed through an invisible shield and came to a bamboo house built next to the mine at the foot of the mountain.

At this time, many miners entered and exited the mine, or transported out slag waste with magic weapons, or transported uncarved rough stones, or entered the cave with special magic weapons that were handy.

The mortals in the world love beautiful jade, and practitioners love all kinds of precious jade that contain the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but mining jade is not an easy job.

Since ancient times, there have been records of the difficulty of obtaining jade. "Taiping Yulan" has a statement: "It is the most difficult to obtain jade. It crosses three rivers and five lakes to the Kunlun Mountains. A thousand people go, a hundred people return, a hundred people go, and ten people return."

Among them, the dangers are evident. Even a cultivator sect like Taihao Sect, in addition to the disciples of this sect, also hired a lot of people from small and medium sects, or scattered cultivators to mine together.

Because the jade that practitioners want to pick is not ordinary jade, sometimes strange and strange things will happen, and there will even be bloody disasters, which is really not a job that ordinary people can do.

Of course, the remuneration given by Taihaozong is also very high, and some loose cultivators even ask for it and refuse to enter, just because they have not passed the layers of screening.

As soon as the four of them arrived, Su Che saluted the bamboo house and asked aloud to see him.

The miners didn't care much when they saw this scene. There are enough disciples who have come to investigate these days, and some of them look like they are aloof. ?Not one by one went away sullenly.

The elder Fu Ting stationed here soon came out to meet him and let a few people in to drink tea.

Ordinary disciples don't have this kind of treatment. It's just that the four of them, Elder Fu, know each other well. Knowing that they have a bright future, they are naturally enthusiastic.

After a few chats, Su Che cut to the chase, "Dare to ask Elder Fu, is there anything else we need to mention besides what we know before?"

Elder Fu, who was wearing gray clothes and had an old face, pondered for a while, "To be honest, I still don't recommend you to go deep into the bottom of the jade mine to explore. Although I have never been able to find out why, the risks inside do exist. , if something happens to you guys in this jade mine, then I can't explain it to the sect."

Chen Tianyin smiled slightly, "Elder Fu don't need to worry, although we are a little less cultivated, we still have some means of protecting our bodies. Besides, it's the first time we go down, can you please accompany you?"

"No problem," Elder Fu has the fourth realm of cultivation, otherwise it is not enough to sit here, "Since you are a little confident, then go down and have a look first, and talk while walking."

Elder Fu acted resolutely and led the way first.

The scene of their group flying into the jade mine surprised some miners at work.You must know that a lot of people have come here these days. Except for another elder from the sect, it was the first time that they saw Old Man Fu give face like this, and they brought people to the mine when they first came.

A few of the Taihao Sect's disciples recognized Su Che, and then the others knew what was going on.

Looking at the backs of Su Che and the others who went straight to the deepest part of the jade mine, a middle-aged man with a blank face turned around and continued to mine with the heavy stone hammer and diamond chisel in his hand.

There are four other people in his group, all casual cultivators who have been screened in layers; they have been working in No. 20, No. The old man's trust.

However, at this time, the middle-aged man at the head was using his spiritual sense to discuss with others, "Because of that strange noise, I have decided to withdraw it, lest the people from the Taihao Sect who came to investigate are too powerful and take away our body. Baby. But now...I have an idea."

A man with a scar on his left eye also responded with divine sense, "Boss, do you want to be the last big one?"

The middle-aged man nodded slightly.

An old man in his 60s or [-]s was a little hesitant, and he "said": "Forget it, listen to their conversation, they are all saying that these people are the strongest disciples of the new generation of Tahoe Sect, we will take action against them The risks are simply too great."

"And even if it succeeds, it is inevitable to hunt us down afterwards. If we just leave quietly, at most a few hard-working miners will disappear, and it will not cause such a big disturbance."

The middle-aged man shook his head slightly, "Our identities are all fake, and there are ways to confuse the secrets. As long as we succeed, there is no possibility of being found out."

"And I only have one target, that is the man in the blue robe. He definitely has something precious on him, and the rat I raised is sensitive."

"Finally, we can make things more beautiful, let the man die in the natural disaster that happened in the jade mine, and we will deal with it. In this way, no matter how they check, they can only find the jade mine itself. The weirdness goes up."

This proposal made several other people excited. It's not that they don't know the terrible sect, but most of the loose cultivators are people who put their lives on their belts; as long as the probability of a plan succeeding is more than [-]% or [-]%, the harvest will still be rewarded. If it is huge, they are absolutely willing to fight with their lives.

Of course, the most important thing is that all five of them are in the third realm, and the boss headed by that treasure can also launch a fourth realm level attack!

If they were given a chance, they could even slaughter Old Man Fu in this jade mine.

"In short, listen to my orders and play by ear. We don't have to act. If we don't have a chance, forget it. The 20 years of forbearance have gained us enough."

......

On Su Che's side, their group had almost reached the deepest and bottommost position of the jade mine, but for some reason, he suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Su Che rubbed his brows, what happened?Could it be that this jade mine is echoing, and there is really any major risk factor lurking?

No, the people from the sect have investigated, and they should have confirmed that the danger will not be exaggerated to an unacceptable level, so they will be delegated to Lingyun Pavilion to be listed.

Did you miss out?

As soon as this idea came up, Su Che heard a strange and crisp sound~

How to describe it, it's like holding two jade pieces and knocking each other, the kind of sound made by the collision of jade and jade.

This sound seems to come from a very deep place under the jade mine. They are crisp and melodious, and they reverberate for a long time in this mine, as if going around the beam for three days without end~

As soon as the sound came out, the group led by Elder Fu stopped, and they listened quietly until the sound disappeared completely, and Elder Fu said: "It's this kind of echo, you say it's dangerous, it's not dangerous, it's all one. It has been more than a month, and it will come every once in a while, and the miners are almost numb."

"But there is always such an inexplicable noise, and you have to find a reason, and don't turn into a disaster that swept the entire jade mine. After all, the mining here has not been completed, and there is still some value."

Chapter 13 Blood Jade?Moyu?

Su Che and his party all agreed with Elder Fu's statement.

Soon, they searched at the bottom of the jade mine. Elder Fu was always by their side. It could be said that he answered any questions and was very cooperative.

But it was a pity that Su Che and the others didn't find anything except for a dozen or so big holes underneath.

These were dug by the previous disciples who came to investigate. They felt that the sound was coming from the ground, so as long as they dug through, they could find the source.

However, this was of no use, and it also destroyed some valuable spiritual jade. In the end, it was urgently stopped by Elder Fu Ting, otherwise the number of large holes here would have doubled.

During this period, Su Che showed off his poor divination and fortune-telling skills again, but he got nothing and was teased by Chu Mo for a while.

Yun Yaoyao is very open. Anyway, for her, this time out is more like going out with friends to relax. It's a big deal for everyone to play around and go home after half a month~

Chen Tianyin and Zhang Xueer are very serious, discussing and guessing from time to time, after all, this is the first task they have taken, and they don't want to make a fool of themselves in front of other disciples.

In this way, Su Che and his party entered the boring and long process of exploration...

This exploration took ten days!
