Poor Monk

worth?

After following Shen Du for so many years, can Pei Wuji not know what kind of person he is?The most cherished thing is this life, if there is nothing important, it is easy not to take risks.

But now, for the mere three volumes of Buddhist collections, how dare you go to the Tianxiahui?

Pei Wuji's dark red robe exuded a depressing and deadly atmosphere, and his body was as tight as his clenched fingers. Seeing Shen Du's eyes, he was calm and mocking.But soon, this bit of mockery turns into something bordering on profound sadness.

He asked: "Is your Liuhe Shenjue going to be perfect?"

Shen Du looked at him, speechless.

So Pei Wuji understood everything.

That sudden feeling, almost like a stab in his heart, caused him to sway, and the ridicule and sorrow were gone, leaving only a slumped face.

he came.

Said a few words.

Turned away again.

Shen Du sat on the couch and watched his back as he left quietly, and soon heard Feng Xiao's surprised voice from outside: "When did you come here? Who allowed you to come here, and what do you want to do! you……"

However, Pei Wuji probably ignored her.

The footsteps quickly went away.

The footsteps of Feng Xiao and the other maids approached.

The morning on Jiantianya is always foggy.

The maids came in together with Feng Xiao, carrying the utensils for him to wash. Shen Du didn't say a word, washed his face, and used the rice porridge, but didn't go out.

He only told Feng Xiao: "I'm going to retreat for the next few days. If there is any matter in the Tao, I will let Pei Zuoshi, Yao Youshi and Mr. Cui solve it. Do what you want."

Feng Xiao was dumbfounded.

In any case, she never thought that Shen Du would go into seclusion at this time, let alone that after Pei Wuji did those things, Shen Du would still trust him so much!

Doesn't this mean handing over the entire Dao of demons to Pei Wuji?

She wanted to refute and ask, but she was kicked out by Shen Du in the end.After she handed over the news, the entire Tianya Cliff exploded almost immediately.

Who can imagine?

For a period of time, everyone thought that Pei Wuji had been ostracized, and he must not have a good life in the future.But in the blink of an eye, the Taoist retreated, and the demon way belonged to Pei Wuji again.

What the hell is going on?

No matter whether they are smart or not, no one can figure out what kind of medicine is sold in Shen Du's gourd. Even Yao Qing and Cui Hong frowned when they heard the news.

On the Tianya Cliff, rumors spread everywhere for a while.

Some people said that the battle between Yongjia Guan and Gu Zhao must have consumed a lot of Shen Du's strength, and even caused him to be seriously injured, so he suddenly needed to retreat;

Some people say that Pei Wuji's methods are superb, and he robbed the descendants of Wu Sheng in Yongjiaguan, which can be regarded as a great contribution to the Taoism, and it is right to regain the trust of the Taoist master;

Of course, there are those who say——

Shen Du didn't deal with Pei Wuji life and death, it was nothing more than lust and insanity.I'm afraid it's the shameless person surnamed Pei who coaxed the Taoist master on the bed, that's why he's today.

How Pei Wuji reacted, no one knew.

Such rumors could not reach Shen Du's ears, or in other words, even if they did reach Shen Du's ears, he would not care.

It's been ten years since I was young, is there still a lot of words like this?

Both he and Pei Wuji should get used to it.

Xiefeng Villa World Meeting will be held on February [-], the day when the dragon raises its head, and the rivers and lakes have already become lively. Except for those invitations sent by the owner Lu Fan, the other anonymous invitations are already one Hard to find.In addition to the special situation this year, I heard that an invitation was sent to Yaomo Dao. Although I don't know if Shen Du will go, the major forces in the world are still paying close attention.

On the twenty-fourth day of the first lunar month, Shen went out alone.

In the afternoon of the next day, Han Jueding discussed matters.

Because his original martial arts attainments were already extremely high, so everyone couldn't see how deep he was after this retreat, but they subconsciously felt that he must be stronger than before.

Of course, the truth is not far from it.

Since Liuhe Shenjue, Shen Du has never been exposed to such a profound and profound exercise. Although there are only three chapters, he only practiced Chapter 1 in the past few days. The internal force cultivated by the Fa is more solid and vigorous.

Occasionally try the power, although there is no one move, but it is as powerful and violent as a tiger roaring and a dragon chant.

Although he has never been in contact with Lou Dongwang, the martial sage, but according to most of the rumors in the Jianghu, this person's murder methods are extremely cruel, and his kung fu is also vigorous, without any sense of evil.Therefore, these three chapters of exercises seem to be a little less than the legendary "Three Volumes of Buddha Collection", but they may not be the essence of martial arts left by the Martial Saints.

So although Shen Du was a little apprehensive about the origin of this thing, he was never the kind of person who wanted to get to the bottom of it, and he practiced it as soon as he practiced it.

There is nothing wrong with treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

Anyway, there are only two years left in this humble life, what difference does it make if you practice or not?

The clearer this idea is in his heart, the less scruples he has in speaking and acting.During the whole morning's discussion, he didn't say more than ten sentences, and only made some arrangements at the end.

Xiefeng Villa is in Jiangning.

This time Shen Du must go to the Tianxiahui, and Jian Tianya naturally objected, but due to his coercion, no matter how big the opposition was, it would not cause any splashes.

It just needs to be prepared.

He appointed the most elite three masters on the way of monsters, and secretly went to Xiefeng Mountain Villa before the Tianxiahui, and he also wanted to take Lou Zhang, a descendant of the martial arts sage, in case something went wrong on the way.

As for himself, he dressed lightly and went to Jianlu first.

This is divided into two groups, he swaggered and did not hide his whereabouts, but the master in the dark demon path had already taken the descendants of Wu Sheng to Jiangning, so that no one could see the slightest clue.

On the twenty-sixth day of the first lunar month, Shen Du once again left the demon way.

There are not many people with him, only three, and they are also the three with the highest status and martial arts besides himself in the Demon Dao: Pei Wuji, Yao Qing and Cui Hong.

When Feng Xiao knew the news, she couldn't help crying again.

After all, Shen Du had taken Pei Wuji away, and he didn't take her to watch the excitement, which was unreasonable.

Just being stared at by Yao Qing's fierce eyes, she hid her tears aggrievedly, and didn't dare to make any more fuss, only dared to ask them to come back and tell her in a low voice, and bring some fresh food, drink and fun outside .

Yao Qing responded impatiently.

In this way, a group of four people finally left Jiantianya, went through several dangerous roads from northwest to southeast, and finally arrived at Jingmen in the afternoon two days later.

Jingmen faces the Yangtze River and sits on the Han River, which is a rare and good place.

It's just that this place has a reputation in the Jianghu. After all, it is because of a sword cottage in this city.

At the beginning, the so-called Sword House was nothing more than an ordinary blacksmith's shop in the city.Li Yan, the swordsmith, was just an ordinary blacksmith at that time.But then a meteorite mine was suddenly discovered in the mountains, which finally attracted people from all walks of life to flock here.

But the strange thing is that no one can make meteorite into a weapon.

It wasn't until one day that Li Yan devoted himself to research and finally used a special method to forge it, which opened the legend of "Sword Cottage".

Tens of years have passed, and Li Yan, the former blacksmith, has gained the reputation of being the number one swordsmith in the rivers and lakes by virtue of his superb forging technology.

Tomorrow is his sixtieth birthday.

For decades, Li Yan has forged weapons for many masters and celebrities in the Jianghu, and his popularity is very good, not to mention that on his birthday, a newly forged sword will happen to be pulled out of the cold pool.So when Shen Du and the others arrived, the city was very lively and full of people.

"Ouch, Shaoxia Zhang, we meet again."

"Isn't that the Young Sect Master of Guanzhi Sect? He's also here..."

"Haha, Mr. Li has a lot of face after all. I'm afraid you don't know it yet? News came early this morning that Master Chi of the Tianshui League in the middle of Shu had set out from the middle of Shu a few days ago and was coming. Congratulations to Elder Li on his birthday. And Master Xuan of Bagua Building..."

"Xuan Hesheng is coming too?"

"This time it's really lively."

……

Shen Du and the other four came at an unusual time, and most of the people walking on the street at this time were not important people, so few people could recognize their scary identities, and they just walked through the street like ordinary people.

It was okay at first, but when he heard those few comments, he raised his eyebrows slightly.

The old man Li Yan made him a non-wounding knife when he was young, and he thought of his [-]th birthday, so he took the opportunity of the Tianxiahui to stop by and take a look around.How could he have expected that besides himself, there would be so many powerful people coming this time?

Chi Yin, leader of the Tianshui League's young alliance...

Isn't it just the person Gu Zhao hates and fears the most recently?It is said that he wants to replace Gu Zhao and become the most talkative person in this martial arts world.

As for Xuan Hesheng?

Thinking of this person, Shen Du raised his brows slightly, and inexplicably felt a bad premonition in his heart.

That sick and crippled man who challenged the entire martial arts world by setting up an array in the Eight Diagrams Tower...

"Yao Qing, go and find out what's going on in the city now, and who wants to come."

The author has something to say:*

Jiantianya F4

Chapter 52 Tianshuimeng┃He turned into a small ant under this gaze.

"A lot of people came to Jingmen this time, because the Tianxiahui will be held soon, all the people from the rivers and lakes from the north will come to visit after passing through the sword house, and some people just want to see the grand occasion when the sword is opened. Although Chi Yin is a fledgling, he has been very popular in the past two years, and he started activities in many places outside of central Sichuan half a year ago, so he will definitely not miss Li Yan's birthday."

Yao Qing, who came back after hearing the news, frowned tightly.

"As for Xuan Hesheng, Li Yan seems to be quite fond of him over the years, and he has forged three weapons for him. It is said that the sword that will be unleashed this time is also forged for Xuan Hesheng himself. He must come here Yes, but it should be half a day slower than Chi Yin."

"Gu Zhao isn't coming?"

The four of them didn't say anything, they found an inn in the city and settled down. It was already night, Shen sat alone in his upper room and listened to Yao Qing's report, and frowned slightly.

Yao Qing shook his head: "I haven't heard any news, I only heard that Pengshan sent someone to celebrate the birthday, but Gu Zhao himself is still in Xiefeng Villa. It is said that he has an injury on his body, and he will be taken care of there."

recuperating?

This must be another pretense to confuse the righteous people.

It's not that Shen Du didn't know Gu Zhao's virtues, so he didn't take this sentence to heart at all, but began to think about it——

The Tianshui League in central Sichuan is very powerful, but because of the natural dangers of Sichuan, there is always a way to enter and exit, and it is not easy to expand outward, so it has been entrenched in the basin for many years.But Chi Yin, the leader of the young alliance who suddenly appeared recently, is quite ambitious, and faintly wants to fight against Gu Zhao.So Gu Zhao felt that this person was not pleasing to the eye, and always wanted to get rid of him.

Right now Chi Yin is coming to Jian Hut, but Gu Zhao is absent.

"Chi Yin, the young leader of the Tianshui League, is a thorn in the flesh of Gu Zhao. This time is really a coincidence. If there is a chance, we will meet for a while, and maybe there will be some surprises."

Shen Du pondered for a moment, then laughed.

In those two long eyebrows that concealed a deep hostility, there was a faint killing intent.

Everyone knew that Shen Du and Gu Zhao were deadly enemies, and after hearing this, most people would probably think that he wanted to use Chiyin to do something.

But at the moment, the other three people in the house are not easy.

Putting aside Pei Wuji and Cui Hong's thoughts for the time being, Yao Qing, who was originally simple-minded, felt his heart skip a beat when he heard these words.

She still remembers being intercepted and killed outside Bukong Mountain.

At that time, it was Cui Hong who made an appointment with her to meet at a certain place, but unexpectedly, he bumped into Donghu Sword Sect on the way, and the leading elder of the other party kept saying that it was "Mr. They will pass through here.

Where in the world is there such a coincidence?

Yao Qing didn't know when Shen Du had been hiding in the dark, but she had memorized this sentence for a long time, and she always felt that there was a mystery in it that must be shocking to solve.

It's just that she didn't say it out.

Now listening to Shen Du's words, it is clear in my heart: the tricks in this, the Taoist master should also know it in his heart.

The upper room of Xiaocheng Inn is naturally incomparable to the luxury and exquisiteness on Jiantianya. There is only one bed placed in the southeast corner, and the window is opened on the side facing the street, and the sound outside has gradually diminished.

Dim lights began to light up in the city.

Shen Du stood by the window and looked at it for a while, then said: "Go down, I will inquire about the situation in the city tomorrow morning, and I will celebrate Li Lao's birthday in the middle of the day."

"Yes."

The three of them had their own thoughts and retreated in response.

"Squeak", the opened door closed again.

After everyone had left, he turned his eyes and stared at the two closed doors. His eyes suddenly became gloomy, like the night before a rainstorm.

That night, Shen Du couldn't sleep well.

He has always spent extravagantly on food, clothing, housing and transportation, and is easy to recognize the bed. The hard bed in the inn caused him pain all over his body. He finally fell asleep with his teeth gritted, and dreamed in the middle of the night.

That hot dream that made him unable to survive.

bamboo sea.

scriptures.

monk.

Ant.

His hand passed over the monk's chest, clung to his neck like some evil monster, and threatened him like he threatened anyone else before: "Vulture, don't you dare to come with me? Then they leveled the Tianji Temple, and then killed you..."

The monk's closed eyes suddenly opened.

The ten thousand zhang Buddha's light exploded at the bottom of his eyes; but the moment he was stared at by this gaze, he turned into a small ant.

The monk is gone.

The bamboo house is gone.

Only one hand held onto a slender bamboo chopstick and pushed him into the mud, smashing him to pieces.

Shen Du woke up immediately.

He turned over and sat up from the bed, the oil lamp in the room was still on, and when he raised his eyes while panting, he saw the scroll and prayer beads that he had put on the table.

The dim light shone like the bamboo house that night.

It was his fate to be haunted by nightmares.

Ever since he sat on the throne of the demon Taoist master, he has not had a day without nightmares.Sometimes it is on the cliff between heaven and earth, looking at the dead bodies of parents, at a loss; sometimes it is under the cliff, suffering from hunger and cold, despair and fear...

But it was the first time I dreamed of monks and ants.

After being dazed for a while, Shen Duxin suddenly mocked: probably the experience at the foot of Bukong Mountain was extremely special to him and it was too difficult to forget, so that's why he dreamed about it?

Sitting on the bed for a while, he finally calmed down his breathing.I wanted to lie down and continue to sleep, but I couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

He simply put on his clothes and stood up by the window.

Stretching out his hand, the window on the second floor opened a crack. Shen Du stood inside and looked out. The night was already very deep, and it might have passed midnight.

There is no moon in the ink sky, and the stars are hidden.

The four long streets are extremely neat, cutting the entire Jingmen City into four square-shaped areas.But at the moment, every street is clean, no pedestrians can be seen, only some voices can be heard from the Hualou Restaurant in the distance.

At night, the wind blows on the face and it is slightly cold.

Shen Du stood in front of the window for a long time, just like waiting for the bright moon on the cliff to slowly climb up the rock wall on the cliff of Jiantian cliff many years ago, cold and quiet.

It's just that the night was too dark after all.

And it's not quiet.

About to be ugly, there was a crisp sound of horseshoes coming from the other side of the long street. From far to near, it sounded that there were seven or eight horses.

Soon the sound of hooves approached.

This group of people happened to pass by Shen Du's window by coincidence, so he saw them clearly.

Seven horses, each of which is a great steed!

Three riders are on the left, and three riders are on the right, all leaning back; the one in the middle is actually a fine horse with pure black coat, and on the horse sits a man with a tall body, wearing a dark black dress, with a silver crown and hair, The facial features are excellent, but the brows and eyes are vaguely wild.

When riding the horse and raising the whip, the sleeves of the clothes flew up, revealing a silver crescent moon mark.

Tianshui League?

Because this force is in the middle of Shu, far away from the Dao of Demons and Demons, there has never been any conflict, so Shen Du has never seen anyone from this force in Jianghu.

But he knows exactly what emblem each faction is.

This place, this hour, such a group of people...

It is almost unnecessary to think deeply about the identity of this person in the past: except Chi Yin, the young leader of the Tianshui League, he should not be considered as a second person.

However, it was too late for them to enter the city.

Shen Du's martial arts cultivation base can be counted among the top ranks in the whole Jianghu. With the skills of the few people below, they still can't find him standing upstairs.

So this group of people ran all the way without looking back.

After the person left the street, the cold wind at night brought the faint smell of blood to his window.

——These people from Tianshuimeng entered the city after killing people outside and being stained with blood.

With a slight lift of his finger, it rested on the window sill, and Shen Du's expression suddenly became a little unpredictable.He secretly wondered what happened to Tianshuimeng on the way, and for some reason he thought of Gu Zhao.

Intuitively, he felt that this matter had something to do with Gu Zhao.

It's just that Gu Zhao is not here now, even if he has some suspicions in his heart, he can only keep it in his heart and have no way to prove it.

Tianshuimeng and his party had been gone for more than two minutes.

Shen Du has been standing in front of the window without moving.

At the third quarter of Chouzheng, there was an almost inaudible door opening sound from a guest room on the second floor of the inn, followed by deliberately low footsteps as they turned up the stairs, as if someone was stepping on the green walls on the roof. Wat passed quietly.

The thin and cold lips suddenly parted a little.

The drowsy, cold night, reflected in his drowsy, cold eyes, condensed into a kind of almost cruel pity.

He clearly gave Cui Hong a chance.

"But you, do you want me to die that much..."

Chapter 53 Wushang┃The young man back then did not have the slightest bit of evil and hostility in his body, just like the breeze and the moon.

At dawn, the city became lively, there was a knock on the door outside, and then Pei Wuji's voice: "It's time to get up and eat."

Did not call "Taoist", after all, away from home.

Shen Du didn't sleep at all in the middle of the night. Hearing the sound, he just put on the robe he was wearing, but when he wanted to tie the leather belt around his waist, he couldn't tie it properly.

After all, he was served by people since he was a child.

He laughed inexplicably, his eyes flashed, and he only shouted to the door: "You come in."

Pei Wuji, who was standing outside, was obviously stunned for a moment, a little hesitant, because he opened the door and came in a moment after his voice fell.

Shen Du was wearing that dark purple robe, but the cuffs and corners of the robe were not very neat.

Raising his eyes and seeing him coming in, he spread his hands, and said naturally: "Feng Xiao is not here, but I am too tired to get dressed, work for Pei Zuoshi."

When Pei Wuji was young, he was the only son in his family, and he was also spoiled and raised.It's just that on Jiantianya, the good life of the past is no longer there, and many things can only be done by yourself.

So over the years, he'll do a lot of things.

Including practicing martial arts, serving tea and water, dressing and mending, and even cooking and cooking.

For a long time in the past, if there was something to do, he would always serve Shen Du when he was away from home.

Shen Du also joked that without him, he might starve to death in the wilderness.

But when did he mention such a sentence?Now that I think about it, I don’t feel like I have any impression.

Pei Wuji suppressed the layers of unpredictable emotions that suddenly appeared in his heart, walked over wordlessly, and straightened his robes for him.His fingertips, which had grown calloused due to his hard work in martial arts, stroked the folds of the collar and cuffs.Finally, he squatted down naturally, and fastened the leather belt embroidered with dark purple and black patterns around his waist for him.

At this moment, he seemed to be hugging him.

His hands passed through his waist, almost encircling the man in his arms.

It's just like any other time in the past, Shen Du is aloof, and he half-knelt in front of him, not raising his eyes to see Shen Du's expression at the moment.

Once the details are met, it will be taken care of quickly.

Pei Wuji got up and backed away.

Shen Du still stood where he was, casually looked at his delicate and wide sleeve robe, and the somewhat gloomy pattern of heavenly demon on it, and then went to look at Pei Wuji.

There was no dissatisfaction on his young face.

She lowered her eyebrows and didn't even look at him.

The innocuous knife that he gave him in the past was quietly worn on his waist, and the bright red pattern was engraved on the tip of the blade like blood.

"Pei Wuji."

Shen Du suddenly opened his mouth, and called him by first and last name.

Pei Wuji suddenly sensed that unusual taste, his eyes flickered slightly, he raised his head and looked at him.

But his intuition prevented him from answering first.

Just as if she knew that Shen Du had something to say later, she waited quietly.

Shen Du admired his composure and coldness which was completely different from that of his youth. When the corners of his lips were curved, he had already smiled lightly, but it was not so easy to understate the question that came out of his mouth: "At the beginning You dare to oppose me, in the final analysis, there is a Dongfang Halberd outside, right?"

"..."

At this moment, a chilling shudder surged up in my heart!

It's been so long, Pei Wuji thought he didn't notice and didn't bother to ask.But in this inconspicuous small town, in the inn, he asked so nonchalantly!

So his sudden tense reaction at this moment has already betrayed himself.

Shen Duquan understood without his answering.

He didn't see any emotional fluctuations on his face, he just walked forward, gently picked up the unscathed knife on his waist, took a look, put it back, and said: "Let's go."

The [-]th birthday of swordsmith Li Yan is today.

Visitors from all over the world had already gathered in Jingmen City, and at the gate of Jianlu, when it was time to welcome guests, many distinguished guests from all over the world had already arrived.

Li Yan was not at the door either, he only thanked the guests in the middle hall.

He is sixty years old this year, he is over sixty years old, and his temples are gray, but because he has been making swords all the year round, his body is in good shape, and he looks hale and hearty.

He has a beard on the lower handle, but it looks very short.

There was no other reason, it was because I didn't pay attention when forging the new sword two days ago, most of my beard was burned off by the furnace fire, leaving only this short one.

Wearing a silk robe with longevity patterns on his body, Li Yan's wrinkled face was rarely filled with smiles, chatting and laughing with the people from all walks of life who came to celebrate his birthday today.

Chi Yin, the young leader of the Tianshui League, also came early.

When everyone arrived, he was already sitting on the left side of the hall, holding a cup of tea and slowly sipping.

As the young master of the most powerful force in central Sichuan, Chi Yin has a handsome appearance, and his gestures are full of everyone's spirit.

As soon as the person sat on that chair, he was full of Da Ma Jin Dao Qi.

Even the act of drinking tea reveals a natural disdain that doesn't take the world seriously.

Many people quietly turned their eyes to look at him, but they didn't know whether they were concerned about his identity or for some other reason. With so many people around, no one dared to talk to him.

There were whispers in the corner.

"I heard that the Tianshui League came to Jingmen City yesterday. It seemed that they encountered a little accident on the way. They were intercepted by bandits who came from nowhere. They were somewhat damaged. In the end, only seven people entered the city. Didn't you see that the gate of the city passed through. Horseshoe marks are all red on the streets of the city..."

"Who is so courageous that he dares to attack them?"

"Do you think it is the way of demons?"

As soon as the three words "Yaomo Dao" were spoken, there was a sudden movement in the direction of the gate of Jianlu, as if they had seen something terrible and scary, and everyone's expression changed in shock.

The guests in the middle hall also noticed it and looked over there.

Li Yan was talking with Yi Tianming, the suzerain of the East Lake Sword Sect, and when he saw this movement, he couldn't help but stop, his white brows frowned: "What happened?"

No one answered him.

From the door to the outside of the middle hall, everyone who saw clearly had a layer of fear floating on their faces, what's more, their faces were ashen-colored, and they couldn't help trembling.

Of course, there is no shortage of righteous people, frowning and furious.

"It's Pei Wuji..."

"Is the demon way crazy? What are you doing in the Sword Cottage?"

"My surname is Pei, today is Mr. Li's [-]th birthday, and you, the Demonic Dao, are also here to get in the way. Isn't it too deceitful?!"

Yes, this caused a shock of unexpected visitors, none other than Pei Wuji, the left envoy of the demon Daojian Tianya.

At this moment, he was holding a name card and was handing it to the housekeeper at the door.

Hearing the sound of people shouting and cursing inside, he raised his eyelids and glanced in that direction, and saw a group of upright people who raised their eyebrows at him.

If it was a different situation, if there were a few more people under his command, he might have already told the other party to shut up and lie on the ground forever before the other party could finish this ignorant sentence.

It's just that today is different after all.

There was a bit of killing intent on Pei Wuji's cold and hard face, but he quickly pressed it back, only looking away, and put the name card in the hands of the dull-looking Jianlu housekeeper.

Over the years, Jian Hut's status in Jianghu can be regarded as detached.

As the housekeeper of Jianlu, he has seen a lot of worlds, but at this moment, the skinny old man in front of Pei Wuji is still sweating from fear.

"This, this is..."

"Mr. Li's [-]th birthday today, no matter how he was selected by his old man in the past, because of his kindness in forging knives. Today, Mr. Shen took the liberty to come to the house, with no intention of provoking any disputes, but he just came to celebrate Mr. Li's birthday."

A chuckle came suddenly.

Those standing outside, closer to the door, saw the man who spoke almost immediately.

It's the steps from outside the door.

It is clearly a very good-looking face, which makes people shake their hearts when they see it; but just at the moment when this thought is born, the deep, fierce and murderous aura between this person's eyebrows is like a green front and cold light. , revealing a condensed coercion, which makes people breathless, suddenly frightened, and dare not look directly.

There are actually not many people in the world who have seen the legendary Lord of the Demon Dao, Shen Du. One is because most of the people who have seen him have died, and the other is because in recent years, there have been very few things on the Demon Dao that require him to come forward. Most of the time it was Pei Wuji who did it.

But just now, he called himself "Shen".

How many people with the surname Shen on the demon path possess such a terrifying murderous aura?

So almost the moment he saw his appearance and heard him say these two words, all the visitors from all directions inside and outside the Sword Hut had already confirmed his identity!

It's like facing an enemy for a while!

Those who drew their swords drew their swords, and those who drew their knives drew their knives. Under the blue sky and broad daylight, there was a cold light everywhere, and they were ready to move their hands if they disagreed.

Li Yan's old face suddenly looked ugly.

Shen Du didn't care, he didn't care about the sword that was raised towards him in the village and didn't know when he would have the courage to drop it, nor did he care about Shou Xinggong's ugly face today, he just walked in like a leisurely stroll.

Just like that, under the gaze of everyone, he stood in front of Li Yan.

"Old Li, this junior is here to congratulate you on your birthday."

To everyone's surprise, Shen Du had a smile on his face.

If it weren't for the hostility between the brows that was already deep as if engraved in the blood, if it wasn't for the sixteen-day demon pattern on this purple-black robe that was too hideous, I'm afraid others would think that this is Mr. Pianpian from somewhere.

His attitude is true and kind, and there is no hypocrisy at all.

Many people in Jianghu don't know the relationship between Shen Du and Li Yan. They only heard that Jian Tianya's left envoy Pei Wuji is using the non-wounding knife that Li Yan used for Shen Du in the past. Forged, what happened in it is not very clear.

Of course, no one knew how the knife got into Pei Wuji's hands.

But Li Yan knew it well.

The old man who stayed by the fire all the year round had a sunburned burgundy complexion, and his eyes were covered with wrinkles. He had seen a lot of the ups and downs in the world, and he already had a sense of comprehension.

It's just that looking at Shen Du at this moment, it's still painful and incomprehensible.

Who would dare to believe that Shen Du, the master of demons and Taoism who surpassed ten thousand people, could make the entire martial arts world feel like an enemy with bloody hands just by showing his face in front of him, many, many years ago, he was just a shy What about the shy, introverted, cowardly and kind-hearted teenager?

At that time, the Yaomo Dao was still in charge of his parents.

Li Yan remembered very clearly that the little boy followed another boy who was half a head taller than him with lowered eyebrows and downcast eyes. He didn't have the slightest bit of evil in the way of demons on his body, as if the wind was bright and the moon was shining.

Originally, the demon came to force him to forge a magical weapon that cuts iron like mud for a young man named Dongfang Ji, who was the proud disciple of the demon master at that time.

Li Yan was unwilling at first.

But the moment he saw Shen Du, he changed his mind. He only thought that if this young man could master the way of demons in the future, it would be a blessing for the martial arts.

So he told them without fear that it is possible to forge a divine weapon, but this divine weapon is not for that Eastern halberd, but for that young man who looks a bit timid...

It is a knife.

The name of the knife, no injury.

But who would have thought that more than ten years have passed...

Things change.

The cowardly young man back then was already a famous and feared devil in the martial arts world, but the innocuous knife back then was worn on another person's waist, and it took the lives of countless people in the rivers and lakes .

Li Yan's gaze moved from Shen Du's body to Pei Wuji's body, stayed on the knife hanging from his waist for a while, and finally moved back.

Shen Du in front of him was too strange.

He let out a long sigh, and only said to the countless comrades in the world with swords out of their sheaths: "I am a guest from afar, Master Shen is willing to reward me, and also make the sword cottage luxuriant. Today is the [-]th birthday of the old man, and I hope you will come back." Let's all save face, let's settle any grievances and grievances after today."

Chapter 54 Chi Yin┃Pei Zuoshi is so powerful, it must be that the Taoist master is well served on both the bed and the bed.

As soon as Li Yan said this, everyone immediately looked at each other in blank dismay.

To be honest, they really didn't want to take the risk of fighting with Shen Du without knowing the foundation of the Demon Dao and Shen Du's intentions.Not to mention, the other party did not come alone, and Pei Wuji, Yao Qing, and Cui Hong did not follow him as a display.

This is simply the four scariest people in the demon world have come to the sword house!

If you really want to fight, it is not certain who will win.And today is indeed a special day, Li Yan's [-]th birthday, it is already disrespectful to wield swords and guns, if you want to see blood at someone's birthday banquet, it is too much.

So everyone thought about it, and despite all kinds of hesitation, they finally put away their swords slowly, but the vigilant and guarded eyes that fell on Shen Du and the others did not diminish in the slightest.

The atmosphere in the field was tense for a moment.

The originally lively birthday banquet seemed to have completely changed at this moment.

In one corner, the eyes of Chi Yin, the young leader of the Water League that day, all fell on Shen Du, with a hint of madness faintly revealed, but it was hidden very deeply.

He glanced at the knife in Pei Wuji's waist again, and he smiled silently.

But then he withdrew his gaze before everyone noticed him, and Shen Du, who was being watched, didn't notice.

The host did not express any objection, and of course the servants rushed up to welcome the guests.It's just that the identities of Shen Du and the others are too special after all, and they didn't know anything about it beforehand, so they didn't prepare their positions at the beginning, so they could only lead to places with fewer people.

This time, it was a coincidence.

The position of Shen Du and his group happened to be next to the young leader of Tianshui League, and the two tables were next to each other. Shen Du sat down, just to the left of Chi Yin.

In a sense, this is also a last resort.

Looking at the whole audience, where else could one find such a suitable seat for Shen to sit alone?Only Chi Yin, the young leader of the Tianshui League from the middle of Sichuan, does not have a close friendship with the rest of the rivers and lakes, and has few acquaintances, and there is no one around the seat where he sits. I was scared.

The two sat together and nothing happened.

only……

Last night, Shen Du was on the upper floor of the inn, but he saw with his own eyes those people from Tianshuimeng passing by with bloody smell.
