Peerless Protégé [Rebirth]

Chapter 44: Willow Darkness

Duan Wan asked: "What?"

Luo Jiening said: "There are words below." He jumped off the skeleton and looked into the cave.This cave seems to be very deep, so the sound coming out is even lower, like the roar of a wild animal, and the light inside is too dark, making it even more dark. Luo Jiening looked at it for a while, broke a branch from the outside, and came in. To go inside.

Duan Wan followed behind him and asked, "What's inside?"

Zhong Zhili looked at the stone wall and said, "There are still inside."

Luo Jiening said: "Tell me, among the group of people yesterday, has anyone entered this cave?"

Zhong Zhili said: "There must be. The thorns at the door were cut down just yesterday."

The two of them were a little surprised when they heard what Zhong Zhili said. After all, they came in in a hurry and didn't notice the situation at the door. Luo Jiening walked a few feet only to find that it was too dark to even see the road clearly. , he lit the branch casually, and only then did he see the situation inside the cave clearly.

Those bones were piled up on both sides of the cave!

This is obviously no silver 300 taels here. Those timid people may stop here when they see the thorns and bones at the door, and those who come in may not want to delve into the mystery when they see these eerie bones. The three of them saw the secret on the stone wall, so they chased in.

It's cold and damp inside. The cave has been moistened by the waterfall not far away all the year round, so it's naturally filled with moisture. Coupled with these white bones, it seems a little weird. Luo Jiening walked and said: "Which expert is in this cave?" Engraved on the stone wall?"

Duan Wan said: "I'm afraid it happened many years ago. How many years have you said?"

Zhong Zhili said: "No more than 50 years."

Luo Jiening asked: "Why?"

Duan Wan continued: "When we were here, we never saw a cave full of thorns under Duanqing Cliff. At that time, head Zhou Shiya liked to take us out for a walk. I came here before. I remember that it was here There should be a big stone with the words "Duanqingya" engraved on it. I was surprised when I heard there was a cave last night, because in my memory there is only one cave behind the waterfall. Of course , it is very likely that the big rock blocked the exit of the cave at that time."

Luo Jiening knew in his heart that even he was a little envious of Zhou Shiya. She was able to take the position of the second head, but when she was in office, she only knew how to travel around. Doing this can be regarded as a clear stream.

He asked: "So, from this point of view, are those bones the animals that were trapped in the cave at that time and couldn't get out, so they turned into bones?"

Duan Wan nodded and said, "It's possible."

Luo Jiening asked again: "Then, what's in that cave behind the waterfall?"

Duan Wan replied: "It's nothing, only some monks will practice there. The cave is very small, but it can accommodate three to five people."

Luo Jiening understood, and said: "Then, who moved that stone away? And why?"

Duan Wan pondered: "It's impossible to move away, the stone is as big as the hole."

The two talked for a long time, but they didn't see Zhong Zhili speak. The two turned their heads to look at Zhong Zhili at the same time, but they heard Zhong Zhili ask: "Who is Zhou Shiya?"

Duan Wan paused for a moment, and then realized that he had lost his memory, and replied: "The second head of the Qing Pavilion."

Zhong Zhili seemed a little puzzled, and asked, "How many masters are there?"

Luo Jiening secretly thought something was wrong. After asking such a question, there are countless things about the head of the sect. Don't talk about this topic at all. He said: "Listen, it seems that the voice is getting smaller and smaller."

The sound of the wind gradually died down, and the sound of the waterfall outside also weakened a lot. Now the three of them can still hear clearly when speaking at a normal volume, but the further they go in, the louder the echo, and they can hear a sentence four or five times, Duan Wan Feeling fresh, excitedly said: "I'll sing for you!"

Zhong Zhili didn't speak, Luo Jiening asked curiously, "You can also sing?"

Duan Wan rolled his eyes at him and said, "I have a surprise for you!"

After finishing speaking, she began to hum the tune. As soon as the tune came out, Luo Jiening always felt it was very familiar. After listening to it for a while, she asked, "What is that tune? Why is it so familiar?"

He looked at Zhong Zhili, but Zhong Zhili was unmoved, and had no intention of talking to him at all.

Duan Wan's eyes were a bit weird, but no one could see in the faint glowing firelight, only her voice could be heard: "This is a song that our Qing Pavilion women sing when they are taking a bath, how familiar are you?"

Luo Jiening was stunned for a moment, and felt that Zhong Zhili's eyes had already been cast on him, obviously not with good intentions, Luo Jiening smirked: "Haha, that's what I heard wrong, how could it sound familiar?" Well, I obviously haven't heard of it."

Duan Wan seemed to have touched a minefield, jumped up suddenly, and shouted: "I remember! Luo Ge, you shameless peeped at us taking a bath!"

Luo Jiening also seemed to be frightened, and hurriedly shouted: "When did it happen!"

He finds it hard to argue, who hasn't done something stupid when he was young, but he just doesn't want to be exposed in front of Duan Wan, but Duan Wan seized on this point of him and cursed: "Okay! Luo Ge! If you don’t mention it, I will almost forget it! Four more times!”

Zhong Zhili stood aside and looked at the two of them leisurely, Luo Jiening wanted to run towards him, but Duan Wan grabbed the corner of his clothes and cursed: "You still don't admit it!"

Luo Jiening didn't expect how strong Duan Wan's hands were, so she dodged to the side and let out a hiss, both of them were stunned.

Duan Wan let go of her hand abruptly, and asked in the dark: "Could it be broken?"

Luo Jiening only felt a chill in his arm, and thought it was a broken sleeve, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's just a broken sleeve."

Zhong Zhili ignored the commotion, Gu Zi walked forward, the torch was in Luo Jiening's hand, the front was very dark, Luo Jiening was afraid that he would step on something, so he quickly followed up with the torch.The fire illuminated half of the cave, and Luo Jiening noticed that there were no more bones in front of him, and the road under his feet was getting narrower and narrower. He glanced at the stone wall, and his heart was like a mirror. The stone wall was no longer what it was before. I can't see any traces, and it seems that something is engraved on it, but the inside is dark, so I can't see clearly.

Zhong Zhili suddenly stood still, Luo Jiening almost burned him with a torch, quickly stepped back, Duan Wan was also startled and asked: "What's wrong?"

Zhong Zhili said indifferently: "There is no way out."

Luo Jiening passed him and looked forward. Sure enough, there was a hard stone wall in front of him, and there was no way forward. Luo Jiening touched the top of the stone wall. It was uneven, and it was obviously engraved with something. He just wanted to bring the torch closer. Duan Wan's sudden scream startled him, he turned his head, Duan Wan pointed straight ahead and said: "Is that a human bone?"

When Luo Jiening turned his head, there were indeed a few white bones piled up on Duan Wan's left side. The shelves were as big as they were, and they didn't look like any animals. Zhong Zhili stepped forward to have a look, and said, "It's human bones."

Luo Jiening held up the torch and stepped forward, the flames illuminated the skeletons, Luo Jiening squinted his eyes, carefully discerning, these bones looked as tall as him, they should not be children who strayed into this place, It is the person who came here specially.

Duan Wan said: "Is it because of the things on the stone wall?"

"Like."

Luo Jiening turned around and said, "There is something on the stone wall, let's light it up."

After all, the three of them went out quickly along the way they came in. They chopped off enough thorns from a large thorn outside, and put them all on both sides of the road in the cave, extending straight to the protruding human bones. , In an instant, the whole cave was as bright as day!

The three of them seem to have made an agreement a long time ago, starting from the very end, one Duan Wan looked quickly at the stone wall to the east, one Luo Jiening looked from the west, and Zhong Zhili took a closer look at the few piled up on the stone wall. The bones together, the posture of the bones is sitting upright, it looks like they are meditating, but several people are crossing their shoulders, it seems to be laughing and talking together, it is hard to tell what these people were doing before they died, Zhong Zhili turned to look at the back of the human bone, there was also something engraved on the stone wall above, under the light of the fire, Zhong Zhili could see clearly!

That's not words, but——

Figures!

Moreover, those people had swords in their hands!It is a practice diagram, or it can be said to be a swordsmanship diagram!

Zhong Zhili was clear in his heart. Looking towards the exit of the cave, he could see the bones piled up on both sides, and Luo Jiening and Duan Wan who were running away. The entrance of the cave suddenly opened up, extending so far, only A piece of white light shone so brightly that Zhong Zhili was dazzled.

Within a moment, the thorns were completely burned, and darkness returned to the cave again.Zhong Zhili walked slowly towards the entrance of the cave, waiting for the two to start giving speeches.

Sure enough, just as Zhong Zhili reached the entrance of the cave, Luo Jiening pulled him and said, "It's the sword manual!"

Zhong Zhili nodded and said, "I saw it."

Luo Jiening has always had the best eyesight, if he sees something, he seldom fails to remember, he asked Duan Wan, "What did you see?"

Duan Wan said with a serious expression: "It's also a sword manual, every piece is there, but it's gone halfway through."

Zhong Zhili understood that it had been rebuilt, so it was gone near the entrance of the cave.

Zhong Zhili asked: "Which school of swordsmanship is it?"

Duan Wan and Luo Jiening looked at each other, both of them were speechless, Zhong Zhili's eyes lingered between them, and he asked aloud: "Could it be from Xuantian Tower?"

Luo Jiening shook his head, then said, "It looks like it belongs to Wuchenxuan."

Without waiting for the two to speak, he explained to himself: "Although I only saw a little bit, I have seen a lot of masters in Yiyezhiqiu, Wuchenxuan, and I have tried it. The similarity is quite high, especially this movement. I remember that only the disciples of Wuchenxuan can make it."

After finishing speaking, he pulled out Fuguang, stabbed forward, then turned his wrist over and back again, raised the tip of the sword towards his chest, and then pointed it straight down again, and finally let go of his hand, and put the sword back into its sheath.

Duan Wan nodded and said: "This action is indeed what they will do."

Luo Jiening looked at Zhong Zhili and said, "Fifty years ago, Tang Heru, the third head of Wuchenxuan, was a literary champion. He was most particular about the beauty of the body, and he added a lot of his own ideas when dancing the sword. It was like dancing. At that time, there were still many people who followed him, but was later criticized by an official of the court as flashy, so the wave receded quickly after it was set off. Only Tang Heru and his disciples still knew how to dance. Do it."

Duan Wan continued: "Besides, people in Yuxu Palace wear veils, people in Lingdian wear gloves, people in Biyun Palace rarely use swords, Qing Pavilion is all women, Shen Yun School's swordsmanship is too special, the men on the stone wall are only People from Xuantianlou and Wuchenxuan agree with the characteristics, and apart from these two factions, there are only scattered people in the Jianghu, and they have too many swordsmanship, it is impossible to know who it is."

Zhong Zhili nodded and said, "So, the person portrayed is Wuchenxuan's deadly enemy?"

Luo Jiening knew what he was thinking of, and only remained silent for a moment, Duan Wan saw that he was silent, and also lowered her head silently.Seeing that the two were silent, Zhong Zhili didn't understand what was going on, and asked, "Why aren't you talking?"

After a long time, Luo Jiening said, "It's very possible that this person did it."

"Which one?"

Duan Wan looked up at him and said, "Huo Pingsheng."
