Sealing Sword

The saying "There must be a road before the mountain, and the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge" is probably a lie.

This is the first time for Gu Jianfang to come to Mizong Ridge. It is pitch black right now. Others who enter this mountain may not find their way until dawn. Only Gu Huafang is well versed in the way of walking at night, and her whole body is perfectly integrated into the darkness. , almost turned into a bird, passing silently across the forest.

However, there are countless trails in Mizong Ridge, with nine turns and eighteen turns, hidden by vegetation and trees, it is a natural maze, even Gu Huafang feels dizzy.At this moment, she moved her ears and heard someone's voice not far away, so she quietly hid in the tree, only showing a pair of eyes to spy.

Under the dark mountain wall ahead, a secret door suddenly moved open, revealing a little light.Gu Huafang took advantage of the sporadic lights to catch his eyes, and suddenly there were shadows moving on the mountain wall. It was impressive that there were many sentry posts, all covered their bodies with vegetation, earth and rocks, and crawled motionless among them. If anyone went forward recklessly, they would be besieged immediately.

A group of men in black came out dragging a few bulging sacks, turned their heads and said something to the sentry post, the mountain wind howled, and there was some conversation, but it was a pity that they couldn't really hear it.

Gu Jiefang frowned, and smelled a bloody smell from the tip of her nose. Seeing the men in black go to the left, she looked back at the mountain wall full of guard posts, pressed her hand on the tree trunk, and jumped up with strength. He followed silently.

There is a ravine not far from the left side of the mountain wall. Before people get close, the mountain wind blows up the stench.Gu Jianfang jumped behind the rocks, because the vegetation here is not as dense as before, but the moonlight is brighter, reflecting everything in front of her eyes.

The ravine was also filled with such big bags, but most of the bloodstains were congealed and blackened, exuding a strong stench, and there were stumps and broken arms leaking out of the damaged pockets, mixed with new rot, exposed to the universe .

As they got closer, their voices became clearer, and the first person said: "This ditch is about to be filled, burn it clean."

They were all looking at the ditch in front of them as they spoke, not noticing a slight movement of a bag behind them.Gu Jufang narrowed her eyes, watching them turn around and throw all the sacks down, and turned around to go back the way they came.

At this moment, she jumped down from the tree. Before she fell to the ground, the Jinghong knife from her waist was out of its sheath. The blood line fell down in an instant.

The four people behind him were all startled, before the word "who" came out of their mouths, Gu Jianfang had already forced himself between the four, and in the blink of an eye, he had indirect four attacks and eight defenses, the corners of his mouth curled up, the Jinghong knife was in his hand, and the people also Taking advantage of the trend, it is the fifth form of "Jinghong Saber Technique" "Hangbo".

The name "Hengbo" is very euphemistic, but it is like a stone entering the water, creating waves and spreading along the trend.After she turned around, there was a bloodstain on the throats of the four of them. The trachea was cut, and the bones could be seen, but the flesh of the wound was smooth and smooth, and there was no curl at all.

Little drops of blood merged into a line and flowed down Jinghong's blade. Gu Jufang was not in a hurry to wipe it away. She walked to the front of the ravine, stared at it for a moment, and suddenly opened one of the sacks with her hand. The "corpse" inside was caught off guard. Horror overflowed the surface.

He finally pretended to be a dead person and left that ghostly place, he definitely didn't want to die again.Dazed for a moment, the man's right hand quietly approached the back of his waist, where a steel needle was hidden.

But before he touched it, he heard the woman's lowered voice: "If you use force in front of me, I will make you really a dead person."

Those who walk the rivers and lakes may not be smart, but they must be aware of current affairs.Hearing this, the man let go of his hand and still looked at her vigilantly, his voice hoarse: "Who are you?"

"I'll ask you two questions, and then we'll go to each other and have nothing to do with each other." Gu Huafang ignored him, narrowing his eyes, "First, have you ever met a 16-year-old boy?"

The man said: "I was arrested four days ago. There are many people in the dungeon. As you said, there are at least five or six young people. How do you know who you are asking?"

The so-called dungeon must be behind the mountain wall just now.Gu Jufang frowned even tighter: "Where is He Lianyu?"

"He didn't show up after killing a dozen people three days ago, I don't know."

This person is very knowledgeable, and Gu Huafang didn't make it difficult for him, the scabbard swiftly slapped over like the wind, directly hitting the sleeping point.

However, the other party thought that she was going to silence her, so she was startled, blocked the scabbard with her left hand, drew out the steel needle with her right hand and shot it at her left eye.With a soft scold, Gu Jufang turned her head to avoid the sneak attack, raised her leg and kicked it up. The man was also stubborn, enduring the pain of a broken bone and being kicked by her, but a piece of his clothes fell off. out.

His face was startled, and he stretched out his hand to grab it, but Gu Jianfang hooked his toe, and the object flew into her hand. Looking at it by the moonlight, it was a brass token the size of a palm.

Gu Jufang looked at this pattern, and felt a "thump" in her heart: "Are you a general?"

Her son rescued two royal descendants from the Palace of Buried Souls, and this matter made Gu Jianfang feel like a thorn in his throat.It's not that she blamed her father's affairs on the two children, but that she was deeply worried about the calculation behind it.

Although the rivers and lakes and the temples do not say that there is a clear distinction, they have their own rules and regulations. Even her father, Gu Zheng, also entered the temple and left the rivers and lakes. It is a serious illness that has been difficult to deal with since ancient times.

But the Burial Soul Palace has crossed the line.

If this sect is to be truly discussed, its foundation is not far-reaching, and it has only been passed down for two generations so far, and it can't compare to Gu Huafang's age.

It stands to reason that forces that rise too quickly and have no qualifications are not uncommon in the arena, but they often rise tall buildings in the air, and fall quickly when they stand high.However, the Burial Soul Palace is a different kind. Its predecessor is said to be a large clan outside the customs. Later, due to civil strife, it split.

As the saying goes, "One person's power can be strong but not long." Burial Soul Palace started from disputes. Although it was the winner of the family's civil strife, it is also self-destructive in the end. The rapid development of these years is unusual.Judging from the information Gu Huafang knew, although the masters of the two generations of Buried Soul Palace could be Gao Zhuo, they were limited to martial arts. The huge manpower and material resources behind it were definitely beyond the reach of others.

If it is not your own ability, it is borrowing the strength of others.

"The Burying Soul Palace not only kills and sets fire, but also kidnaps and extorts?" Gu Jufang threw the token back, "It also specifically picks people from the imperial court to attack, so I'm not afraid of biting on bastards and breaking my old teeth. "

The man was startled, his eyes sized her up, and finally landed on the knife, his pupils constricted: "Shock, shock..."

"Surprise your uncle." Gu Jufang choked back before he finished speaking, sheathed her knife, "I don't kill the lackey of the imperial court today, you are lucky."

Before the words fell, Gu Jufang hit the man's acupoints like lightning, jumped up and lifted his collar, picked up the big man like a small bag, hid it in the hidden place of the rock, and threw the knife he picked up , said: "The acupoints will be unlocked in a quarter of an hour, life and death are up to you."

She had a lot of doubts in her heart, so she didn't dare to believe it. Right now, both sides can't win the trust, so it's better to leave room for change, so as not to make a big mistake.

Gu Yufang had many thoughts in her mind. Although she can beat a group of people by herself, she is not an animal pulling a cart to plow the fields. Sooner or later, she will exhaust her strength, not to mention that people have many unknowns in the other party's territory. Trespassing is naturally a Absolutely not.

If you make a lot of noise, you have to do it.

After a few ups and downs, she returned to the ravine, looked at the unsightly corpse below, reached out and took out the torch, and smashed it together with a small jug of spirits hanging at her waist. As dazzling as a target.

The past few days have been sunny and rainless, and fires are prone to occur in the mountains and forests. What's more, this place is still a downwind. The wind blowing from above fueled the fire, which quickly attracted the attention of the guards. The whistle pierced the air, and the whole mountain was noisy.

At this time, Gu Jiefang passed through a narrow gap between the mountain walls, leaving behind all the noise of the crowd, like a small black fish, mixed into the muddy water.

But when she entered the so-called dungeon, she found that this place was not what she expected.

There are no fences or cells behind the mountain wall, but a winding mountain road. Gu Jufang blended her body into the shadows and sneaked fast. When she reached the end, she found that there was a hill in front of her.

It is indeed small, inconspicuous among the mountains, there are many caves on it, like a stone honeycomb, and the vegetation is too sparse.

There was a wind blowing over, and she smelled blood.
