Poor Monk

Bukong Mountain is on the boundary of Shanxi.

The continuous mountains rise in the shadow of the sky, like a crouching dragon.Shen Du and Gu Zhao are both masters, among other things, the speed of the journey is extremely fast.Not long after, they have already left this piece of lofty mountains.

When I looked back, there was only a small dot in Bukong Mountain.

Yiyang City is still to the north.

Thirty miles away from Bukong Mountain, and not far from the northern border, it can be regarded as a border town.

Shen Du had never been to this place before, and he didn't know what kind of place it was, but he felt a little puzzled in his heart: "Your Pengshan Mountain is in the East China Sea. It is reasonable to say that you came from the east to Bukong Mountain. But the descendants of Wusheng are not there. What's going on in the town north of the empty mountain?"

"You all know that I come from the east, how dare I put people in the east city?"

The two of them have already left this mountain range and walked up the official road not far ahead. There are few people in sight along the road. Gu Zhao also looks very relaxed, and he didn't feel nervous at all because of Shen Du's question. .

"This trip is to hunt you down. Pengshan, and even many fellow martial artists are there. It is inconvenient for me to take that kid with me. Who knows when I will be recognized? Wouldn't all previous efforts be wasted? So I let Tong Bo Take people to find a place to settle first."

Shen Du frowned suddenly: "Did you bring Tong Bo?"

"It's a big deal, and I don't dare to bring anyone else here except Tong Bo." Gu Zhao turned his head, saw him frowning, and laughed out loud, "Tong Bo didn't even say that he doesn't want to see you, but you don't want to see him first." he came."

"Does he still dare to wait to see me?"

Hearing Gu Zhao's words, the corner of Shen Du's lips curled into a sneer.

"If it wasn't for you, Gu Zhao, I would have slapped this poor old man to death long ago. Do you think I, Shen Du, are a good person?"

It is rumored that Gu Zhao was the young master of a rich family when he was young, but something happened.

Tongbo is the housekeeper of their family, he has learned a little kung fu, he is a practicing family boy, so he escaped with the protection of the young master, and finally entered Pengshan and became an apprentice.

Later, Gu Zhao started to make his mark in Pengshan, so he took the aged Tong Bo by his side.

It is said that he is a domestic slave, an old servant who has served him for a long time, but Gu Zhao has always treated him with courtesy, and has never disrespected him.Even people in the Jianghu would say that Gu Zhao is filial when they see him.

But this has nothing to do with Shen Du.

He only knew that the old man couldn't get used to him very much, and sometimes he could see him looking at him with guarded and displeased eyes after discussing things with Gu Zhao.

It's understandable to be wary.

do not like?

Why doesn't this old man like himself?Shen Du thought it was funny, he was so bad that he was aboveboard, Gu Zhao's duplicity was the cancer of martial arts.

Now when he mentions this issue, he is not polite: "Over there in Yiyang City, he is guarding the descendants of Wu Sheng? Such a bad old man, don't turn around and look down on him, that's fun."

"As long as you Shen Daoist don't have any crooked thoughts, there are not many people in the Jianghu who are capable of robbing someone from Gu. I guessed yesterday that you will come out of Bukong Mountain in two days, so let's contact you first." Bo went back to Yiyang City to watch."

Gu Zhao didn't mind Shen Du's rude words, he just pointed forward.

"After passing the villages in front, we will arrive after a short walk."

Shen Du glanced at it, and after leaving the mountain range of Bukong Mountain, there was an open plain outside.With Gu Zhao around, he didn't bother to identify the direction by himself. Wherever Gu Zhao was going, he would go there, happy and relaxed.

There was no gossip along the way.

Seeing that the high walls of Yiyang City could already be seen, Gu Zhaocai opened his mouth again and explained clearly about the descendants of Wu Sheng.

"In the past 16 years, everyone has been looking for the descendants of Wu Sheng, but there is no trace."

"You also know that although I have ambitions for the three volumes of Buddhist collections in Tianji Temple, I have not paid attention to them. I have searched the entire river and lake for 16 years and have not found them. What can I find?"

"I didn't expect that half a year ago, by chance, I got some clues..."

Thirty miles away, the two of them traveled fast, and it took only two hours to walk.

By this time the sun had already set in the west.

But no matter whether it was Shen Du or Gu Zhao, there was no trace of fatigue on their faces, they just continued to walk along the official road, one talking and the other listening.

"You should have heard of the soul chasing old devil, right?"

"At the beginning of last year, after killing eleven members of Dongnan Yin's family, he fled towards Shandong. Tong Bo and I happened to be in Shandong at the time, so we came forward to investigate and kill this person. Of course he couldn't resist, but please spare his life. Give me important clues to the descendants of Wu Sheng."

"I promised him, and he gave it to me."

As he spoke, Gu Zhao touched his bosom, and found a small, crescent-shaped ornament, the whole body was silver and white, and it was actually made of sterling silver.

It is said to be an ornament, but there are blood grooves carved on the tip of both ends.

People in the arena know at a glance that this is a hidden weapon.

Gu Zhao handed the object to Shen Du.

Shen Du took it over and took a look, his pupils suddenly shrank.Although he has never personally experienced the incident that year, Shen Du was already in his teens 16 years ago, so it is impossible not to recognize this thing.

"Silver Moon Hook..."

"good."

As Gu Zhao walked forward, he twirled the jade flute lightly between his fingers, and his voice was a little more confused.

"Wu Sheng became famous very early, and his fame spread throughout the world 30 or [-] years ago. It's just that he is obsessed with martial arts, and no one cares. He is a young man, but he doesn't have a confidante around him. Many famous families in the world want to be My own daughter was betrothed to him, but Wu Sheng disappeared behind closed doors. Until that time, the world will..."

Of course, Shen Du had heard of this.

The Tianxiahui is held every three years. It was created by Wu Sheng back then. It was only for the aspiring knights in the world to learn from each other. It was always presided over by Wu Sheng. It was meaningless at first.

But after a few times, the knights of the world are faintly headed by Wu Sheng.

Back then, even though there was no leader of martial arts, Lou Dongwang, the martial sage, was almost everyone's default martial arts No. 1.

That was 26 years ago.

Lou Dongwang still presided over the Tianxiahui.

On the grounds that he was obsessed with martial arts, he rejected many door-to-door marriages, and also rejected many women who admired him.But no one expected that at this year's World Meeting, he encountered the disaster of his life.

That woman is called Lu Feixian.

From Xiefeng Villa, she is the younger sister of the owner Lu Fan.

She has no power to restrain a chicken, but she has a beauty that astounds the whole world.The first time he appeared in the Tianxiahui, countless heroes and men bowed their heads and bowed their heads for it, and lost their souls.

Lou Dongwang is no exception.

He was 26 that year, but he already had the status of "Martial Arts No. 1", which is exactly the heroism.What is said to be obsessed with martial arts and not to be moved by foreign objects is just because he has not met the right person.

Once you meet the right person, it's like going crazy.

Lu Feixian doesn't know martial arts.

Although she was born in Xiefeng Villa, she was frail and sickly from birth, her meridians were small, she could neither practice martial arts nor internal strength.Doctors and Taoist priests said that she would not live to be 20 years old, but if she survived, she would be fine in the future.

She happened to be nineteen the year she went to Tianxiahui.

If what the doctors and priests said is true, she only has one year to live, so her elder brother Lu Fan took her out to see the people and things outside.

One is a long-established hero in the arena, and the other is a weak woman who has just entered the arena; he pities her frail and sick, and her life is dying, and she admires his martial arts and heroism.

Not long after we met, we fell in love with each other.

The owner of Xiefeng Villa, Lu Fan, knew that Lu Feixian was not in good health, or feared that he would die soon, so he didn't want to agree with the two of them, but Lou Dongwang, with deep affection, vowed not to marry Lu Feixian?After studying for a while, I finally agreed.

Within half a year, the two were married.

At that time, who in the world would not say that these two people are talented and beautiful, a pair made in heaven and a pair made in heaven?It's a pity that Lu Feixian's health was deteriorating at that time, and he was about to die.

So when it was mentioned, many people would sigh "God has no mercy".

Lu Feixian spent half of his life in Xiefeng Villa, and rarely saw the scenery outside. After marrying Lou Dongwang, he didn't mention his illness at all. He just wanted to play around and see the scenery all over the world.

Lou Dongwang accompanied her to see it.

From then on, I didn't care about the things in the martial arts, and I only took Lu Feixian to travel, looking for famous mountains and rivers, but I didn't forget to find a famous doctor for her, so as to save her life and continue her life.

Thanks to Lou Dongwang's high level of cultivation, Lu Feixian has been able to support him for nearly ten years after going around like this!

But also in the past ten years, Lou Dongwang committed a lot of murders.

He has spent half his life, and he no longer has the slightest fear of this river and lake.Lu Feixian sometimes needs some rare medicinal materials to treat illnesses, so he borrows them to get them. If others refuse to give them, they will be killed at every turn.

Year after year, even though Lou Dongwang had the title of "Martial Sage", he also became a big devil that everyone in the world feared, and few sects could tolerate him.

Even the Xiefeng Villa cannot provide protection for the two of them.

Therefore, there is this silver moon hook.

This thing is Lu Fan, the owner of Xiefeng Mountain Villa. He asked Li Yan, who was in Good Fortune Cottage, to design and build it himself. It is a complete set of hidden weapons.

Forged in sterling silver, its power is astonishing.

It is rumored that wearing it on the waist does not require internal strength, and thirteen silver moon hooks can pop out with a light press, easily killing the enemy.

After Lu Fan obtained this object, he tried every means to give it to his sister, hoping that she could use this object to defend herself when Lou Dongwang was away or there was an accident.

But who could have guessed?

This hidden weapon did not fall on the enemy in the end, but instead penetrated into Lou Dongwang's body...

A generation of Martial Saints who have lived for more than ten years!

Until he was seriously injured and fled to Tianji Temple, returned to Buddhism, and passed away, no one knew what happened between him and Lu Feixian, and why Lu Feixian took care of her for nearly ten years at this critical moment, and also loved her. She's been shot by someone for nearly a decade.

Afterwards, Lu Feixian was taken back by Lu Fan.

Maybe it was because of the lack of Lou Dongwang's true energy to continue her life, or maybe it was because she was already at the point of exhaustion. After returning to Xiefeng Villa for two months, she passed away.

Not a single word was left.

Not to mention the whereabouts of her only flesh and blood with Lou Dongwang, and whether they are male or female.

"There are thirteen silver moon hooks. Lu Feixian used twelve when he plotted against the Martial Sage behind his back. They were all kept in Tianji Temple and later returned to Xiefeng Villa."

Shen Du played with the hook for a while, then handed it back to Gu Zhao.

"I've never seen this thing with my own eyes. Whether it's real or not, I'm afraid I'll have to compare it with the old one at Xiefeng Villa."

"Don't worry, when I met Lu Feichan in Xiefeng Villa in the early years, I asked her to show me the real silver moon hook, which is exactly the same as this one."

Gu Zhao took it over, only put the object in his palm, and looked at it with downcast eyes.

"At the beginning, some people in Jianghu were suspicious. The No. 13 silver moon hook disappeared. Now it seems that it is left to their descendants."

Lu Feichan, the daughter of Lu Fan, the owner of Xiefeng Villa, and now the young owner of Xiefeng Villa, probably wants to call Lu Feixian "auntie".

Shen Du also knew her.

After all, because of the incident between Lou Dongwang and her aunt, Xiefeng Villa has been in the Jianghu in recent years, whether it is right or not, evil or evil, between black and white, and has some contacts with demons.

It's just that he didn't expect that Gu Zhao had already seen Yinyuegou.

So I laughed.

"When an ordinary person comes to Xiefeng Mountain Villa, how can he think of going to see Yinyuegou? Only you, Gu Zhao, can do this. I also know that you said that you didn't pay attention to the matter of looking for the descendants of the Martial Saint before." , but in fact, I have been paying attention to it secretly. This scheming is really deep enough!"

This is another sarcasm.

Gu Zhao listened, glanced at him, but didn't answer his words, just put away the silver moon hook, and said: "After the old soul chasing devil gave me the clue, I asked Tong Bo to track it all the way down, and in a family A descendant of Wu Sheng was found in the medical hall, named Lou Zhang. He was seven years old 16 years ago, and he remembered some things, and you will know his identity when you ask."

Yiyang City is already in sight.

The high rammed earth city wall has not been repaired for a long time, and there are some weeds growing, which have been frozen long ago without any green, and are withered and yellow.

When the new wind blows, a black flag is waving at the top of the city, which is quite desolate at the frontier.

Shen Du stopped at the foot of the city and raised his head, squinting his eyes slightly to see the black flag, his eyes flashed, and he was silent for a long time.

When he spoke again, it was a completely irrelevant sentence.

"Back then, Lu Feixian might have only one year left to live, but he happened to meet Lou Dongwang. Tell me, what did she think at that time?"

"..."

What do you think?

Shen Du looked at the banner, but Gu Zhao looked at him.At this moment, for some unknown reason, I felt a strange emotion spreading in his eyes.

Gu Zhao didn't understand at first.

But when he moved his eyes to the black flag waving in the wind in the direction Shen Du was looking at, he was suddenly startled.

That is the Black Cloud Flag of Xiefeng Villa.

Pure black banner.

There are two clouds obliquely hooked with silver lines above.

In the near-twilight sky, it was picked out in a daze like this, and a swaying shadow was pulled long and long on the barren and decayed wall of the city wall.

Inclined Wind Villa.

Lu Feichan.

Ni Qianqian.

It is almost unnecessary to think about it deeply, and immediately associate it with the past.

Gu Zhao immediately remembered what happened back then.

It was more than eight years ago, he followed the elders of Shimen to Xiefeng Villa.At that time, he was not the number one immortal of Pengshan, but just a budding disciple of Pengshan, but Shen Du was already the feared Master Shen on the Dao of Demons and Demons.

Strictly speaking, it was the first time he came into contact with people and things related to Shen Du.

The cause was Ni Qianqian.

Physician Ni Qianqian was originally invited by the people from Xiefeng Villa to treat Lu Feichan, and left after seeing the doctor.Unexpectedly, he disappeared soon after, and after inquiring, he found out that he was robbed by someone sent by Pei Wuji!

Of course Lu Feichan was furious.

She has some friendship with Shen Du, but Ni Qianqian also treats her illnesses, so how can she tolerate the demons taking people away at will and not letting them go?

That's why Pengshan was invited to uphold justice.

Unexpectedly, when it came time to negotiate this matter with Yaomo Dao, Shen Du did not show up, only Pei Wuji came out and said a cruel sentence: "I give you two choices, either let Ni Qianqian stay alive in Jiantianya, Or I'll give you a dead one."

Ni Qianqian has no martial arts.

Even if they were her friends, they didn't dare to make fun of her life, even though they were aggrieved in every way, they finally had to bear it.Just looking back and thinking about it, it's really weird——

Well done, what is the demon going to do with Ni Qianqian?

Pengshan, and even Tianxia Zhengdao, have this doubt.

So I went to ask Lu Feichan.

Unexpectedly, Lu Feichan talked about him from left to right, but answered very perfunctorily, unwilling to mention the reason in the middle.

Because of the status of Xiefeng Villa, although everyone had doubts, one was because of the face of Xiefeng Villa, and the other was that Lu Feichan claimed that he was sick, so it was not easy to press them.

The matter was left alone.

Gu Zhaoqi was delicate and sweet-hearted, so he had doubts at that time, but he didn't know Lu Feichan very well at that time, so it wasn't easy to ask him.

After more than two years, he and Lu Feichan became acquainted. Once he drank in the mulberry house, and Lu Feichan was half drunk, so he asked her about it.

Lu Feichan talked a lot after drinking.

As soon as he asked, she smiled and said drunkenly: "Shen Du, God damn it, Qianqian said that he won't live for a few years after practicing that evil kung fu..."

After that, he muttered again, saying "he deserves it", "ten years" and "God doesn't like him", but he didn't know if he drank too much, or remembered something sad, so he pulled his sleeve and cried again.

Gududu poured down a jar of wine, and actually put himself down.

Gu Zhao now still remembers the wet tears on Lu Feichan's face, and his sleeves that were stained with tears or snot...

Liuhe Shenjue.

What Shen Du practiced was Liuhe Shenjue.

Everyone in the world said that he is invincible, even if he is a devil, his martial arts can be regarded as the real number one in the world.

However, at such a young age, is there really no price for such an achievement?

Gu Zhao looked back.

At this moment, he couldn't tell what he was feeling in his heart, he just squeezed the jade flute slightly, and stood here in the deserted city, where the wind was blowing, and put on a flawless smile.

Then asked him: "Shen Du, are you going to die?"
