I practice ruthless way
Chapter 40 The world is happy (1)
The crescent moon in the sky dimmed at this moment, and the falling raindrops soaked the bluestone ground, and in the wind, Yan Wushu's sleeve robe fluttered, like black wings unfolding.
He glanced down—to be precise, he glanced at Shitang.The latter nodded slightly at him, and he shifted his gaze to Xiao Man before leaving.
Qu Hanxing walked from the corridor to the courtyard, and said in a very emotional tone: "If this sword falls, it will directly destroy the Dan ears under the famous flower, I don't know how good it would be."
"If this is the case, the famous and beautiful country will be destroyed. At that time, the big formation in the imperial city will sense the danger and might activate it to deal with us." Mo Juntian stood beside him and said softly .
"It's because I didn't think well." Qu Hanxing raised his hand and tapped on his forehead.
Xiao Man swayed his sleeves and walked into the courtyard, then walked out quickly: "Go and inform the garrison and Si Tianjian."
Wei Chuyun sacrificed the cloud boat.
A group of people boarded the cloud boat, and the Taoist surnamed Zhou disappeared and walked on the cloud with a flying sword.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the troops of the Sitianjian and the garrison arrived, and set off from the west of Shenjing City, heading for Minghuaqingguo in the north.
It was the busiest time of the night market, and countless people crowded the streets and alleys to watch the monkey jugglers. When the acrobats breathed out flames, or led the monkeys to fly through the fire ring, thunderous cheers and applause burst out immediately.
On the other side of Shenjing City, dragon and lion dancers also began to parade. Adults lifted children on their shoulders, and young people led women and children at home. They took to the streets and climbed to the attic to watch.
There is a scene of prosperity everywhere, but how many of these people who take to the streets know the undercurrent hidden under the grand scene?
Xiao Man stood on the edge of the cloud boat, staring at the lights under his feet, and said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow, it will be a situation where thousands of people will be empty."
"We can definitely work things out."
"What if... I mean, what if it can't be solved? By then, we will be the closest to Dan'er."
"I envisioned that outcome, so I prepared in advance."
"Ok?"
"Qiang Qiang -" Qu Hanxing took out a large stack of talisman paper from the Qiankun Ring, "Although the teleportation talisman that I got at a high price cannot be directly teleported back to Gushan, it is not a problem to leave Shenjing City."
"It's really you."
The people from Si Tianjian flew a sound transmission talisman: "Be ready to fight at any time, there is news that people from the Qing Kai Sect are coming to stop it!"
Xiao Man and his entourage were walking on the clouds, Si Tianjian and the garrison leaders rode their horses, leading a group of practitioners along the road, halfway through, they suddenly saw sharp arrows piercing the sky!
What was shot was not a man, but a horse.He used ordinary feathered arrows and shot at a non-lethal position. It was clear at a glance what the purpose was.
The horse rider immediately tightened the reins, then turned sideways suddenly, and the horses under the seat fell towards the road together, avoiding an imminent stampede, followed by abandoning the horse and drawing the sword, and fought with the Qing Cui sect pouring out of the crowd to the end one place!
The sound of fighting, shouting, and footsteps of fleeing in a hurry was mixed together, and there were even children standing helplessly in the road and crying.
Chen Mingli swung his sword and cut down a Qing Kai sect member, quickly went over to pick him up, threw him again, and threw him into the arms of a woman beside the street. fight.
"How many people are here!" Qu Hanxing asked urgently when he saw fighting in the street.
"31." Xiao Man raised his bow and set his arrow, aiming at a certain place.
With an arrow out, he changed his words: "Thirty."
Qian San felt dizzy: "Damn, why are there so many!"
Ma Wu: "It's okay, we're all guarding one area, let's go, go down and help."
Needless to say, Wei Chuyun had already landed on the cloud boat, and everyone except Xiao Man jumped onto the street with their swords.
The disciples of Gushan went to help, but the situation did not change for a long time.The garrison and Si Tianjian died, and so did the Qing Kaijiao, but no matter what, they couldn't break through the other side's defense line.
After the war, the Qing Kai Sect even brought a few Guiyuan Realm practitioners, each holding a magic weapon, one for two.
"What kind of leeks are they? They grow new ones so quickly after being cut off." Qu Hanxing and Mo Juntian leaned back against each other, spat out a mouthful of blood foam, and couldn't help rolling their eyes.
call out--
A sharp arrow brushed past his head, and when he looked back, he saw a man from the Qing Dynasty had his throat pierced.
Qu Hanxing hurriedly raised his head: "Thank you Brother Man!"
Xiao Man didn't answer him, changed his position, and continued to draw his bow.
"Why didn't Senior Zhou make a move?" Qian San and Ma Wu and Zhao Liu joined forces in a sword formation, killing several enemies in a row, and couldn't help asking.
Ma Wudao: "Senior is the highest combat power here, and the opponents are just small soldiers and shrimps. Of course we can't send a king!"
Qian San said with grief and indignation: "Senior Zhou has too much confidence in us!"
Even so, the sword in his hand kept moving.
"We can't all be trapped here!" Chen Mingli rushed to Wei Chuyun's side and shouted at him with red eyes.
Wei Chuyun immediately understood what he meant, and asked, "If we withdraw, can you resist?"
"If you can't stand it, you have to stand it. Do you really think we are embroidered pillows?" The leader of the Sitianjian people answered, and between the words, a talisman paper flew out, and the other hand quickly wrote a series of words in the void. , It seems that they are about to fight in the street.
"Senior Brother Xiao, Senior Brother Wei, your team will continue to go to Famous Flowers, and we will stay here to support!" Zhao Liu said, "I will meet you when we kill all of these people."
Wei Chuyun pondered for a moment, then looked up at Xiao Man in the sky.The two exchanged glances, Xiao Man came to the street, grabbed Qu Hanxing and Mo Juntian, and took them back to Yunzhou.
As the street gradually moved away, Xiao Man called out to the void, "Senior Zhou."
"The poor Taoist is here." The Taoist surnamed Zhou appeared from the clouds.
Xiao Man looked at him: "How far will you make a move?"
"I left a sword intent on the jade ring they carry with them, which is enough to ensure their safety." The Taoist surnamed Zhou said slowly, "Furthermore, it is time to use this to kill the arrogance of the capital city." .”
"Okay." Xiao Man understood what he meant and nodded.
Qu Hanxing recalled the battle situation just now, and was speechless for a while: "The highest dispatched by Shenjing City is only Guiyuan Shangjing. This imperial city...is too weak!"
"It's not enough." Xiao Man recalled what he heard and saw in the imperial city last night, and shook his head and said, "If it weren't for their careful plotting and large numbers of people, just one person in the Supreme Profound Realm entering Shenjing would not be a threat."
"Just one remnant of the cult can make the great emperor like this, isn't this country going to end?" Qu Hanxing curled his lips.
Famous Flowers Qingguo is the land of the royal family, but it is not close to the imperial palace, and it has little effect in ordinary times. It is only opened on grand ceremonies, and the guards are not so strict. A barrier is placed above it, which is all defenses.
Yun Zhou headed all the way to the famous flower, and was not stopped on the way. Si Tianjian took care of it, and the barrier never stopped them.
Here still remains the sword intent that Yan Wushu dropped earlier, it is sharp and sharp, and as soon as he gets close, his back feels chilly.The Taoist surnamed Zhou made a decision so that the people in the Baoxu Realm would not tremble.They detoured here for a while, and finally came to the bottom of the high platform.
This is probably the secret passage left over from the time when the famous flowers were all over the country. The road surface and the four walls are extremely rough.
Wei Chuyun took out a lamp.
This secret passage leads to a deeper underground. It was a little narrow at first, but later it gradually widened. Judging from the traces everywhere, it was newly dug.
Several people moved forward cautiously.This dark passage is extremely weird, the light emitted by the lantern can only illuminate a small area, as if something has absorbed the light.
"There's something wrong here." Wei Chuyun said.
Qu Hanxing didn't care at all: "It's normal if it's not right, but if it's right, it will make people feel hairy."
A group of people continued to move forward, except for the sound of footsteps in the dark passage, there was only intermittent sound of water droplets coming from nowhere, and it seemed to be close to the ear.
"Quicken your pace!" Taoist surnamed Zhou said in a deep voice, "Otherwise we won't be able to catch up."
"Is there anything here?" Xiao Man asked.
The thoughtful person: "The road is wrong."
Xiao Man and the others simply ran.He counted the time and ran for nearly a quarter of an hour. The narrow road suddenly opened up, and an extremely empty place that could be called a cave appeared in front of him.
"Qing Kaijiao really knows how to take advantage of loopholes!" Qu Hanxing said after looking at it.
Mo Juntian showed disdain: "This also shows that Cang Kingdom itself is not good enough, and there are loopholes for people to take advantage of."
There was a wind blowing in the cave, Xiao Man listened carefully, and made a silent movement.
The next moment, He saw several figures appear in the cave.They were dressed similarly to the members of the Qing Kai Cult who blocked the way on the street just now, wearing black robes and covering most of their faces with hoods.
When Qu Hanxing saw these people, he drew his sword immediately: "I said, why didn't I encounter any obstacles again, so I was waiting here."
When Xiao Man explored the opponent's realm, he couldn't help but lower his face: "It's all in the Yuanyuan realm."
The Taoist surnamed Zhou walked up to the four of them, raised his hand and waved back: "Back off."
The four of Xiao Man retreated to give the place to the Taoist surnamed Zhou, but he just shot out a sword, and saw a figure flashing from the other side of the cave!
This man was very fat, so fat that his butt could hardly be accommodated in an ordinary chair, but his movements were light, and he didn't know how to make a move.
Then he landed, with a smile on his face, his fat face was shaking: "You are a Taixuan, what's the point of beating my group of returnees? Come, I will fight with you."
As soon as the words are settled, the fierce fist is released!
The wind is bitter.The Taoist surnamed Zhou's expression froze, he turned his wrist, and raised his sword to block it.
The two people turned into two afterimages fighting each other, and the aftermath of energy waved up and down again, and gravel and debris flew across.Seeing this, Xiao Man moved slightly to the side, and raised his eyes to look at the other side of the cave.
The way out was still blocked, and there were five Guiyuan Realms there.
And they all return to Yuanshangjing.
Xiao Man lowered his eyes, spent half a breath thinking, and asked the other three people with sideways eyes: "Do you want to try to kill the enemy by crossing the two realms?"
"You can give it a try." Wei Chuyun narrowed his eyes slightly, gripping the hilt of his sword tightly.
Qu Hanxing and Mo Juntian all said "yes".
The four formed a sword formation.
They are disciples of Gushan, they use Gushan swordsmanship, and the formed formation can naturally be called Gushan sword formation, although it is not comparable to the real big formation of Gushan, but it has more or less shape and spirit.
The castration is extremely fierce.
But in the end, he was still at a disadvantage. After all, the opponent was five Guiyuan Shangjing, and he lost by the number alone.
Xiao Man didn't change his face, he raised his palm upwards, and a cluster of real phoenix flames ignited in his palm.
The temperature of the entire cave rose at this moment, and the corners of his plain white clothes were windless, his eyes were pitch black, but the lines on his forehead were red.
Holding the sword in one hand, he walked towards the five Guiyuan Realms on the opposite side. His movement seemed to be extremely slow, but in the next instant, he disappeared from sight.When he reappeared, he folded his hands into palms and slapped one of his opponents on the chest!
How can ordinary practitioners endure the burning of the real fire of the phoenix?In less than a moment, the person turned into ashes.The other four returning to Yuanjing retreated immediately, and Wei Chuyun and the others saw the right moment to make a move.
They seized the rhythm of the attack, but the gap in the realm was still flawed. The four returning to the original realm looked at each other, looking for an opportunity to escape, quickly changed positions, and formed the same formation!
How does the sword formation produced by the Baoxu Realm compare with the killing formation produced by the Guiyuan Realm!The four return to the original realm, the four swords turned into one sword, approaching with endless murderous intent.
Xiao Man ignited the real fire of Phoenix again, but the speed of the other party was even faster!
The sword light was about to fall.
Suddenly, Xiao Man recalled the scene of him burning Xueyi Peak with the real fire of Phoenix in his previous life.In the deep winter, Xueyi Peak is covered with white snow, and a fire suddenly rises, which is quite dazzling.
And at this moment, a ray of brilliance suddenly rose in the cave, dazzling and dazzling!
That point of light shot out from between Xiao Man's eyebrows, and spread in an instant, like a torrent, rushing towards the sword that was about to fall, easily dissipating, and then rushing to the four return to the original realm.
The sword intent that landed here silently gathered, condensed into dots of streamer, and stabbed at them fiercely.
The killing blade is invisible, and the throat is sealed when it passes.
It was clearly a murder scene, but it was extremely dazzling and gorgeous.
Boom!Boom!Boom!Boom!
The sound of four falling to the ground sounded on the same beat, and everyone who blocked their way turned into ghosts.
Qu Hanxing's hand holding the sword was shaking, and he was very excited: "Brother Man, you are so powerful!"
"It's not me." Xiao Man whispered.It was the sword formula that Yan Wushu tapped between his eyebrows that night when he and Yan Wushu resolved the matter of sealing the altar.
But at this moment, Fatty, who was fighting endlessly with Zhou Daozhe, suddenly attacked Xiao Man and the others.
Zhou Daozhe's reaction was extremely fast, or in other words, he expected this person to have such thoughts early in the morning, so he dodged to stop him, threw the hammer that Yan Wushu gave him to Xiao Man, and sternly shouted: "Let's go!"
The fat man sneered, "I'm afraid you won't have time when you get there."
"Go!" Zhou Daoist said again.
Xiao Man and the others turned around and left. Qu Hanxing found a few light-weight talismans and slapped each of them.
The speed of the people increased a lot, and they never encountered a fork along the way. They rushed all the way, and after about a quarter of an hour, the road came to an end.
This is a platform. The Dan'er seen in the portrait is standing on the edge of the platform. Behind it, the river water falls from a high place, splashing Zhang-high water splashes, which are crystal clear.
The aura is abundant, so thick that it is almost impossible to breathe.Dan'er has already been activated, and a faint light surrounds his body.
"Didn't the fat man say that even if we go there, there will be no time?" Qu Hanxing felt puzzled, and glanced at the way he came.
Mo Juntian walked up to Dan'er, sized him up carefully, and said: "Leave him alone, maybe he wants to trick us."
Xiao Man also walked towards Dan'er, but after taking two steps, he immediately retreated, stood still, and asked in a calm voice, "How long have we been walking?"
Qu Hanxing said: "Just half a cup of tea."
"No." Xiao Man said with downcast eyes.
He heard a bell in the distance.
Dang, Dang, Dang... Tapping one after another, no matter the strength of the tapping or the rhythm of the interval, they are very familiar.
They have been in Shenjing City for several days, and they can hear such voices every morning.
It was the bell that rang when the Shenjing morning market opened.
But the opening of Shenjing City does not mean that——
"It's the second day now." Xiao Man frowned, "That road is really strange!"
"What?" Qu Hanxing was shocked.
Mo Juntian pressed his arm, motioning him to listen carefully.
"...Qing Kaijiao is really well prepared." Qu Hanxing's complex expression lasted only for a short moment, and then he recovered his expression and waved his hands: "This is the morning market, not the evening market. Now we are in front of Dan'er , just hit it directly?"
"Senior Wu said yes." Mo Juntian said.
Qu Hanxing rolled up his sleeves: "Okay, let's crush it with a hammer!"
Xiao Man took out the hammer from Qiankun Ring and handed it to Qu Hanxing.
Qu Hanxing held it with both hands, took a deep breath, and swung it towards Dan'er.
Boom!
There was a loud noise, and smoke and dust rose from all directions, but we have to wait and see——
Dan'er stood where he was, motionless.
"Maybe you need to hit it a few more times." Qu Hanxing laughed, gritted his teeth, and swung the hammer again.
After the loud noise hit the ground, a dent appeared on the surface of Dan's ear, but it did not break.
"I'll do it." Mo Juntian stretched out his hand towards Qu Hanxing.
Once, twice, three times...
I can't count how many times, whether it is stabbing, hacking, chopping, or beheading, no matter if the four of them exert their strength at the same time or hold the hammer alone, they all fall short.
Standing in front of Dan'er, Xiao Man sighed softly: "It was only a little bit close to smashing it. If the hammer was of a higher grade, it would be successful."
In the south of Shenjing City, floats from all over the country have been parked here.Before dawn, Sister Qin urged everyone to get up and wash up, but she didn't see Xiao Man and Mo Juntian until she got on the float. She was so angry that she paced back and forth:
"Xiao'er and Xiaotian haven't come yet?"
"Really, where did you go this time!"
Shitang glanced in the direction of Famous Flowers, squeezed out a smile, and went to comfort Sister Qin: "Don't worry, they will be back soon."
But he heard a sneer: "The outsider is indeed an outsider."
Immediately afterwards, another person said: "Fortunately, the sisters never counted on the three of you. Even if you didn't come, we could still dance the whole Furong Que."
"I don't look very good, and I don't dance very well. To put it bluntly, I came to Shenjing City with us to get rich. Shameless bitch, I gave a lot of money for nothing."
The person who spoke was Xiuwuhui's leader dancer and her supporters, Shitang blushed with anger: "How could you say that! Without them, you might have reached the Western Paradise!"
The lead dancer laughed again: "You are so coy about cursing people to death, do you really think you are some kind of famous young lady?"
Not long after, the opening bell of Shenjing City rang, but Xiao Man and Mo Juntian were still missing.Sister Qin ignored Shitang, and talked with Xiuwu back to everyone about changing the dance.
Seeing their figures, Shitang wished she could leave without shaking her hands.
But suddenly, loud noises came from the north of the city one after another.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Coming from the direction of Minghua Qingguo, even the road in the south of the city trembled.Many people fell down on the float, and there was a sound of scolding father and mother.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The voice continued, and Shitang pinched the Buddhist beads on his wrist, feeling an ominous premonition.
Yesterday Yan Wushu looked for her alone.
At that time she was wandering in the courtyard of the post house, Yan Wushu didn't say hello, suddenly appeared in front of her, and said to her: "Little girl, could you please lend me Buwen Zhong?"
Shitang was surprised by his appearance, but Yan Wushu added: "Of course, it may not be used."
"That's what Xiao Man and the others asked to find. What are you going to do with it?" Shitang asked puzzled.
Yan Wushu: "Use it to raise the grade of a magic weapon."
"Wouldn't it be gone if you don't hear the bell?" Shitang's eyes widened.
"It may not be useful." Yan Wushu laughed, paused, and then said: "It has something to do with destroying Dan'er."
Shitang knew Dan'er's role well, so he hesitated a little when he heard the words, and asked, "But I lent it to you, so what about Xiao Man's and the others' tasks?"
"I'm their teacher, and I have the right to decide whether they pass the mission this time." Yan Wushu flicked his sleeves, saying affirmatively.
"Really?" Shi Tang was still skeptical.
"Really." Yan Wushu said.
Shitang rolled her eyes, thought for a while, and said, "Then you swear, if Buwen Zhong is really used, you are not allowed to judge them to have failed in their mission, not only that, but also to give them a good evaluation."
"Okay, I swear." Yan Wushu nodded.
Practitioners are very serious about their promises, and they swear to the sky. If they violate it, they will be punished by heaven.Seeing him like this, Shitang turned around and walked under the crabapple tree:
"Okay, I'll give you Xijiangyue's token."
"You don't need to give it to me." Yan Wushu shook his head, "When you think you need it, give it to Xiao Man."
The night osmanthus that filled the courtyard was still in his nose, Shitang thought to himself that they didn't stop after smashing so many times, they must have needed to use Bu Wen Zhong, so he didn't think too much about it, and took the corner of the skirt to the edge of the float, directly Turn it out.
Immediately behind her, there was an angry curse: "Outsider, it really is an outsider!"
Shitang didn't care what the person who returned from Xiuwu said, but she accidentally staggered a step when she landed, and she was about to fall. Fortunately, someone on the side of the road came to help her, and reached out to help her.
"Little girl, even if you are in a hurry, don't jump from such a high place." Shen Juan was the one who shot, and he said to Shitang with a smile.
"Thank you..." Shitang took a step back and raised his head to thank him. When he saw the man's face clearly, he was slightly taken aback.It was the one who bought the antler mask before her that night. This man was extremely good-looking, with fan-shaped peach eyes and a smile, which made it difficult for her to find words to describe it.
But this is not the main reason why Shitang was stunned. She has been with Xiao Man and others for a few days, and she has more or less learned how to distinguish a practitioner from an ordinary person.The person in front of him is very likely to be a practitioner. Although he is dressed in black, he has an air of dust. Shitang thought that he should not be a remnant of the Qing Kai Sect, and a thought crossed his mind.
"My lord, are you a practitioner?" Shitang lowered her voice and asked cautiously.
Shen Juan also lowered his voice, and replied cautiously: "Young lady has good eyesight."
"Then can you ask my son to do me a favor?" Shitang stretched out both hands and said while gesturing, "I'll give you a reward, and I'll give you whatever you want!"
Shen Juan said with a smile, "Tell me what you are doing first."
Shitang said: "Send me to one, two, three...three places!"
"It's a trivial matter, and you don't need to pay." Shen Juan nodded.
"Go to the posthouse first!" Shitang said urgently.
She thought that this person would fly with her for a while like Xiao Man, but she didn't expect that he arrived in the courtyard of the post house as soon as the words landed.
"My lord, you are really...too amazing!" Shitang was dumbfounded.She did not forget the purpose of her trip, she saluted Shen Juanfu, and ran quickly to the Begonia flower to take out the token.
Returning to Shen Juan, he said again, "The next place is Xijiangyue."
Shen Juan: "Okay."
In the blink of an eye again, the shop that Shitang visited once appeared in front of him.
"My lord, you are a god! You are just like the heroine who saved me back then!" Shitang exclaimed, went in with a token, and returned the Qiankun Ring that Xiao Man gave her.
Shen Juan came to her side and asked, "Okay, where is the third place?"
"Famous flowers are all over the country." Shitang said.
But Shen Juan said: "There is an enchantment there."
"Ah? You're right..." Shitang came to her senses, with a look of disappointment on her face.But this look didn't last long, she remembered that Qu Hanxing had given her a teleportation talisman.
Maybe use that.
Just as she was thinking, Shen Juan spoke again: "You can't stop me."
It turned out that this guy had only spoken half of what he had just said.
It was another flick of the fingers, and the scenery around Shitang changed for the third time.She found that this young master had sent the Buddha to the west, directly sent her to a place only Zhang Xu away from Xiao Man and the others.
The four of Xiao Man surrounded the hammer, all frowning.
Shitang took a step towards them, remembering that she hadn't thanked them yet, but turned around and saw that person had disappeared.
Practitioners are still mostly kind-hearted people.Shitang muttered in her heart.
Xiao Man found Shitang not far away, at first he thought he was wrong, but after confirming it, he wondered: "Why did you come here?"
Qu Hanxing also looked up: "No, how did you get here?"
"I met a formidable hero on the way!" Shitang compared a tall figure, trotted in front of everyone, and handed the Qiankun ring to Xiao Man, "Don't talk about this, I'm here to send you Bu Wen Zhong, isn't it?" Can it be used to improve the grade of the magic weapon? I think it should be able to be used."
Xiao Man and Qu Hanxing looked at each other, then at Wei Chuyun and Mo Juntian.
They all understood each other's eyes: "Use it, it is originally a sacrificial vessel, and it is used to improve the grade of other magical instruments, which is the purpose of its creation."
At this moment, the Taoist surnamed Zhou walked out of the cave with his sword in hand and came to the platform.His sword was stained with blood, his body was injured in many places, and his expression was slightly tired.
"This is what your task requires to find." Zhou Daoist glanced at a few people and said in a low voice.
"Senior Zhou, did you beat that fat man?" Seeing him, Qu Hanxing greeted him with a smile on his face, "Do you need some wound medicine? Hurry up, sit down and rest."
The thoughtful man waved his hand and did not mention the matter.
Qu Hanxing said again: "Senior Zhou, the mission said that we should find it, but it didn't say that we must take it back!"
"Senior Zhou, please be a witness for us, this magic weapon, it is called Bu Wen Zhong, and now we have found it."
He said "Senior Zhou" one by one, with a pleading tone in his tone, the Taoist surnamed Zhou nodded: "Okay."
"Thank you Senior Zhou!" Qu Hanxing cupped his hands to salute.
"But there is a problem." Xiao Man took out the Bu Wen Zhong, and held it in his hand through the cloud of spiritual energy, while the other hand was the hammer that Shen Juan reminded him to find, with a serious tone, "This sacrificial vessel, we How to feed it."
Everyone was silent, and for a while, there was the sound of splashing water.
"Using a sacrificial vessel to raise a magic weapon can only be done in a specific device." Wei Chuyun said.
Shitang then asked, "Can you buy it in the market?"
"It can be..."
Wei Chuyun hadn't finished speaking when Shitang pulled up his sleeves, "What are you talking about, let's go quickly! I came out with a lot of money, enough to keep!"
This is not a question of money, but that you need to go to a special place to buy it, but they are not familiar with Shenjing City, so it is difficult to start. Wei Chuyun pursed his lips, thinking that there must be one in the palace, and maybe they can borrow it.Just as he was about to speak, he heard the Taoist surnamed Zhou say, "I'll come."
Xiao Man had seen how Yan Wushu refined the magic weapon, so he immediately knew what the Taoist surnamed Zhou was thinking. He stepped forward and handed the Buwen Bell and Hammer to him, and saluted: "Thank you, Senior Zhou."
The Taoist surnamed Zhou accepted his gift and said, "But it will take a lot of time."
"If there is not enough time, we will try to delay it." Xiao Man said.
Several people found a place to sit down.The Taoist surnamed Zhou drew out a formation with his fingers, and then drew some spiritual energy from Dan's ear, which had been smashed to the surface, and began to refine the magic weapon.
"There is plenty of spiritual energy here, so we should be able to catch up." The Taoist surnamed Zhou comforted everyone.
Shitang worried all night last night, leaned against the wall, closed his eyes and fell asleep.She didn't know how long she slept, she only knew that she was very hungry after waking up.
Xiao Man took out a small porcelain bottle: "Bigu Dan, the taste is not very good, but I am very hungry, do you want to eat it?"
"It's fine if you're not hungry!" Shitang nodded hastily, and then asked: "What time is it now?"
"About Shen time." Xiao Man has been paying attention to the sound of drums outside to tell the time.
Shitang fell asleep again.
Qu Hanxing sat in meditation for a while, got up and paced, turned to Zhou Daoist, looked at the hammer, then went to Dan'er, took out an ordinary hammer, and gave it a hammer.
This cycle went on and on, and after a long time, I couldn't help asking: "What time is it now?"
Xiao Man frowned indistinctly: "It's time."
After a while, sporadic cheers came from the deep underground.
Mo Juntian stood up with a bang: "The ceremony has begun!"
At the same time, a burst of crackling sounds came from Dan's ears!
Qu Hanxing was the closest to it, and quickly moved away in fright: "This is not...isn't it going to explode!"
As if to confirm his words, another sound came from inside Dan's ear.
Xiao Man looked to the other side, and said in a deep voice, "Senior Zhou, how long will it take!"
"One hour." The Taoist surnamed Zhou replied.
"One hour is enough for all the performance groups to go around the street..." Qu Hanxing was in a hurry, and at the end, remembering his last trick of leaving the teleportation talisman, he quickly took out the things and distributed them to everyone.
In the process of waiting, time always moves slowly, and anxiety undoubtedly deepens this feeling.
Xiao Man took back his Buddhist beads from Shitang, chanted the mantra of clearing the heart, and moved them one by one, forcing himself to calm down.Zhou Taoist drew some spiritual energy from Dan's ears again, trying to speed up, after a while, he said: "A quarter of an hour."
But the sound of clicking and clenching came from the inside of Dan's ears continuously. The sound could be called crisp, but it fell on everyone's hearts like a drum beating.
"Can you put a sound barrier on it?" Qu Hanxing kept scratching his head.
Zhou Daozhe shook his head, his tone helpless: "Ordinary enchantment can't do anything with it, unless the master comes in person."
Xiao Man pursed his lips, made a decision, stood up and said, "It's better to let everyone on the street shut up."
"Unless the ceremony is stopped, the old emperor is unwilling to stop the ceremony." Qu Hanxing looked sad.
Xiao Man said calmly: "The mortals always like to applaud when watching juggling and opera. The weirder the thing, the more flattery and applause it will get. in, but keep silent."
Immediately looking at Shitang: "Miss Shi, can you do me a favor?"
"Tell me." Shitang also stood up.
Xiao Man looked at her intently: "Let's go up there, I'll play the flute, and you dance."
"But, we can't get on the float anymore." Shitang felt it was difficult.
"Have you forgotten where we are?" Xiao Man smiled slightly.
Her eyes lit up: "Famous flowers are all over the country!"
But after thinking of something in a flash, he was quite disappointed: "But...their attention is not here, we just dance, it is difficult to attract people."
Xiao Man: "I'll solve this problem."
"The mystery on that passage has been lifted." The Taoist surnamed Zhou reminded him aloud.
Xiao Man expressed his thanks, and took Shitang directly away against the wind.
When we came to the ground, we realized that the entire city of Shenjing seemed to be lit, immersed in the brilliant lights.Everywhere is dazzling, the float moves forward slowly, the people on it wear all kinds of makeup, the petals and colored paper are scattered, like a continuous rain.
The alleys are empty and the sky is full of hustle and bustle.
A circus was performing on Central Avenue. They brought bears, elephants, and tigers. Just these few things shocked the common people. Not to mention the animal trainers also brought them to perform.
The famous flower in the north is full of no one's attention, Xiao Man walked up with Shitang, and asked her in a low voice: "Are you ready?"
Shitang coughed lightly: "I can do it anytime! But is it really okay?"
"Trust me." Xiao Man chuckled, and then said, "But I want to borrow something from you."
"What?" Shitang asked.
Xiao Man lowered his eyes, showing a little shame: "Do you still have the mask you bought last time? I don't want to be seen by so many people. I want one."
"Just keep one." Shitang smiled and nodded.
What she took out from the magic weapon was the antler mask.Xiao Man was slightly surprised, "You didn't send it home?"
Shitang touched the antlers on the mask, and explained: "The pair of horns are too long, I'm afraid they might break when I put them in the box, so I don't have them."
"Thank you." Xiao Man knew the identity of the person who wanted to give him the mask that night, so he took it over his face without any doubts, then took out the bamboo flute, put it on his lips, and played it softly.
The flute sound is crisp.
It is the sound of spring water in the mountains, bit by bit, refreshing the heart and spleen; it is the sound of chirping in the forest, crisp and pure.
The sound is pleasant and clean.
The sound of birds flapping their wings came from the sky, and the winged family came from all directions, circling and flying, and surrounded the country with famous flowers.
Their bird feathers are bright and gorgeous, and under the rendering of lights, they seem to be colored silk woven by immortals in the sky.
The first person to notice this scene was the child who was held up on his father's shoulders. She pulled his father's hair, then patted his mother, and pointed to the famous flower: "Father, mother, look, it's so beautiful there!"
The second person he found was the young master who was fighting for wine with others on the high pavilion. He was stunned for a moment, then put down the wine cup, got up and stood in front of the railing.
The family of three looked together.
The people beside the young master looked.
The people who crowded the whole street looked over.
Everyone in Shenjing City looked at it.
But seeing famous flowers all over the country, someone dressed in white and played the flute, attracting a hundred birds to congratulate.His face was covered by a deer antler mask, but his sleeves fluttered like an exile.
The beautiful woman dances to the music, flicking her sleeves and tapping her toes.The birds came to her feet and built a bridge, she seemed to be dancing on the legendary magpie bridge
Everyone was excited, and then held their breath, for fear of disturbing this dreamlike fairy scene.
Time passed by little by little, brushing Shitang's rising and falling clothes, skimming away from Xiao Man's bamboo flute, and going away silently.
Shitang closed his eyes, Xiao Man closed his eyes, they didn't worry, because worry has no effect.
A quarter of an hour is a cup of tea and a stick of incense.
Let the tea fragrance overflow, let the smoke float, and let the city's brilliant lights burn out the anticipation, tension, worry, and joy.
The sound of the flute is melodious and the dance is beautiful.
The lights are shining all over the city, reflecting the moon in the sky, but it can't dim the brilliance here.
The elapsed time is gathered into a thread, turning into a stroke of endless history.
The moment the tea aroma and smoke dissipated, the lights crackled and the candles flickered.
The end of the song.
Dancing.
The people in the imperial city have not dispersed.
Just when the sleeves fell down, when the night wind turned, and when those eyes opened, a heaven-shaking sound came from under Famous Flowers!
boom--
The river made waves, the crowd screamed, and the shadows of flowers, branches and leaves all over the city trembled.
Then the waves receded, the screams disappeared, and the flowers and leaves were determined by the wind.
He glanced down—to be precise, he glanced at Shitang.The latter nodded slightly at him, and he shifted his gaze to Xiao Man before leaving.
Qu Hanxing walked from the corridor to the courtyard, and said in a very emotional tone: "If this sword falls, it will directly destroy the Dan ears under the famous flower, I don't know how good it would be."
"If this is the case, the famous and beautiful country will be destroyed. At that time, the big formation in the imperial city will sense the danger and might activate it to deal with us." Mo Juntian stood beside him and said softly .
"It's because I didn't think well." Qu Hanxing raised his hand and tapped on his forehead.
Xiao Man swayed his sleeves and walked into the courtyard, then walked out quickly: "Go and inform the garrison and Si Tianjian."
Wei Chuyun sacrificed the cloud boat.
A group of people boarded the cloud boat, and the Taoist surnamed Zhou disappeared and walked on the cloud with a flying sword.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the troops of the Sitianjian and the garrison arrived, and set off from the west of Shenjing City, heading for Minghuaqingguo in the north.
It was the busiest time of the night market, and countless people crowded the streets and alleys to watch the monkey jugglers. When the acrobats breathed out flames, or led the monkeys to fly through the fire ring, thunderous cheers and applause burst out immediately.
On the other side of Shenjing City, dragon and lion dancers also began to parade. Adults lifted children on their shoulders, and young people led women and children at home. They took to the streets and climbed to the attic to watch.
There is a scene of prosperity everywhere, but how many of these people who take to the streets know the undercurrent hidden under the grand scene?
Xiao Man stood on the edge of the cloud boat, staring at the lights under his feet, and said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow, it will be a situation where thousands of people will be empty."
"We can definitely work things out."
"What if... I mean, what if it can't be solved? By then, we will be the closest to Dan'er."
"I envisioned that outcome, so I prepared in advance."
"Ok?"
"Qiang Qiang -" Qu Hanxing took out a large stack of talisman paper from the Qiankun Ring, "Although the teleportation talisman that I got at a high price cannot be directly teleported back to Gushan, it is not a problem to leave Shenjing City."
"It's really you."
The people from Si Tianjian flew a sound transmission talisman: "Be ready to fight at any time, there is news that people from the Qing Kai Sect are coming to stop it!"
Xiao Man and his entourage were walking on the clouds, Si Tianjian and the garrison leaders rode their horses, leading a group of practitioners along the road, halfway through, they suddenly saw sharp arrows piercing the sky!
What was shot was not a man, but a horse.He used ordinary feathered arrows and shot at a non-lethal position. It was clear at a glance what the purpose was.
The horse rider immediately tightened the reins, then turned sideways suddenly, and the horses under the seat fell towards the road together, avoiding an imminent stampede, followed by abandoning the horse and drawing the sword, and fought with the Qing Cui sect pouring out of the crowd to the end one place!
The sound of fighting, shouting, and footsteps of fleeing in a hurry was mixed together, and there were even children standing helplessly in the road and crying.
Chen Mingli swung his sword and cut down a Qing Kai sect member, quickly went over to pick him up, threw him again, and threw him into the arms of a woman beside the street. fight.
"How many people are here!" Qu Hanxing asked urgently when he saw fighting in the street.
"31." Xiao Man raised his bow and set his arrow, aiming at a certain place.
With an arrow out, he changed his words: "Thirty."
Qian San felt dizzy: "Damn, why are there so many!"
Ma Wu: "It's okay, we're all guarding one area, let's go, go down and help."
Needless to say, Wei Chuyun had already landed on the cloud boat, and everyone except Xiao Man jumped onto the street with their swords.
The disciples of Gushan went to help, but the situation did not change for a long time.The garrison and Si Tianjian died, and so did the Qing Kaijiao, but no matter what, they couldn't break through the other side's defense line.
After the war, the Qing Kai Sect even brought a few Guiyuan Realm practitioners, each holding a magic weapon, one for two.
"What kind of leeks are they? They grow new ones so quickly after being cut off." Qu Hanxing and Mo Juntian leaned back against each other, spat out a mouthful of blood foam, and couldn't help rolling their eyes.
call out--
A sharp arrow brushed past his head, and when he looked back, he saw a man from the Qing Dynasty had his throat pierced.
Qu Hanxing hurriedly raised his head: "Thank you Brother Man!"
Xiao Man didn't answer him, changed his position, and continued to draw his bow.
"Why didn't Senior Zhou make a move?" Qian San and Ma Wu and Zhao Liu joined forces in a sword formation, killing several enemies in a row, and couldn't help asking.
Ma Wudao: "Senior is the highest combat power here, and the opponents are just small soldiers and shrimps. Of course we can't send a king!"
Qian San said with grief and indignation: "Senior Zhou has too much confidence in us!"
Even so, the sword in his hand kept moving.
"We can't all be trapped here!" Chen Mingli rushed to Wei Chuyun's side and shouted at him with red eyes.
Wei Chuyun immediately understood what he meant, and asked, "If we withdraw, can you resist?"
"If you can't stand it, you have to stand it. Do you really think we are embroidered pillows?" The leader of the Sitianjian people answered, and between the words, a talisman paper flew out, and the other hand quickly wrote a series of words in the void. , It seems that they are about to fight in the street.
"Senior Brother Xiao, Senior Brother Wei, your team will continue to go to Famous Flowers, and we will stay here to support!" Zhao Liu said, "I will meet you when we kill all of these people."
Wei Chuyun pondered for a moment, then looked up at Xiao Man in the sky.The two exchanged glances, Xiao Man came to the street, grabbed Qu Hanxing and Mo Juntian, and took them back to Yunzhou.
As the street gradually moved away, Xiao Man called out to the void, "Senior Zhou."
"The poor Taoist is here." The Taoist surnamed Zhou appeared from the clouds.
Xiao Man looked at him: "How far will you make a move?"
"I left a sword intent on the jade ring they carry with them, which is enough to ensure their safety." The Taoist surnamed Zhou said slowly, "Furthermore, it is time to use this to kill the arrogance of the capital city." .”
"Okay." Xiao Man understood what he meant and nodded.
Qu Hanxing recalled the battle situation just now, and was speechless for a while: "The highest dispatched by Shenjing City is only Guiyuan Shangjing. This imperial city...is too weak!"
"It's not enough." Xiao Man recalled what he heard and saw in the imperial city last night, and shook his head and said, "If it weren't for their careful plotting and large numbers of people, just one person in the Supreme Profound Realm entering Shenjing would not be a threat."
"Just one remnant of the cult can make the great emperor like this, isn't this country going to end?" Qu Hanxing curled his lips.
Famous Flowers Qingguo is the land of the royal family, but it is not close to the imperial palace, and it has little effect in ordinary times. It is only opened on grand ceremonies, and the guards are not so strict. A barrier is placed above it, which is all defenses.
Yun Zhou headed all the way to the famous flower, and was not stopped on the way. Si Tianjian took care of it, and the barrier never stopped them.
Here still remains the sword intent that Yan Wushu dropped earlier, it is sharp and sharp, and as soon as he gets close, his back feels chilly.The Taoist surnamed Zhou made a decision so that the people in the Baoxu Realm would not tremble.They detoured here for a while, and finally came to the bottom of the high platform.
This is probably the secret passage left over from the time when the famous flowers were all over the country. The road surface and the four walls are extremely rough.
Wei Chuyun took out a lamp.
This secret passage leads to a deeper underground. It was a little narrow at first, but later it gradually widened. Judging from the traces everywhere, it was newly dug.
Several people moved forward cautiously.This dark passage is extremely weird, the light emitted by the lantern can only illuminate a small area, as if something has absorbed the light.
"There's something wrong here." Wei Chuyun said.
Qu Hanxing didn't care at all: "It's normal if it's not right, but if it's right, it will make people feel hairy."
A group of people continued to move forward, except for the sound of footsteps in the dark passage, there was only intermittent sound of water droplets coming from nowhere, and it seemed to be close to the ear.
"Quicken your pace!" Taoist surnamed Zhou said in a deep voice, "Otherwise we won't be able to catch up."
"Is there anything here?" Xiao Man asked.
The thoughtful person: "The road is wrong."
Xiao Man and the others simply ran.He counted the time and ran for nearly a quarter of an hour. The narrow road suddenly opened up, and an extremely empty place that could be called a cave appeared in front of him.
"Qing Kaijiao really knows how to take advantage of loopholes!" Qu Hanxing said after looking at it.
Mo Juntian showed disdain: "This also shows that Cang Kingdom itself is not good enough, and there are loopholes for people to take advantage of."
There was a wind blowing in the cave, Xiao Man listened carefully, and made a silent movement.
The next moment, He saw several figures appear in the cave.They were dressed similarly to the members of the Qing Kai Cult who blocked the way on the street just now, wearing black robes and covering most of their faces with hoods.
When Qu Hanxing saw these people, he drew his sword immediately: "I said, why didn't I encounter any obstacles again, so I was waiting here."
When Xiao Man explored the opponent's realm, he couldn't help but lower his face: "It's all in the Yuanyuan realm."
The Taoist surnamed Zhou walked up to the four of them, raised his hand and waved back: "Back off."
The four of Xiao Man retreated to give the place to the Taoist surnamed Zhou, but he just shot out a sword, and saw a figure flashing from the other side of the cave!
This man was very fat, so fat that his butt could hardly be accommodated in an ordinary chair, but his movements were light, and he didn't know how to make a move.
Then he landed, with a smile on his face, his fat face was shaking: "You are a Taixuan, what's the point of beating my group of returnees? Come, I will fight with you."
As soon as the words are settled, the fierce fist is released!
The wind is bitter.The Taoist surnamed Zhou's expression froze, he turned his wrist, and raised his sword to block it.
The two people turned into two afterimages fighting each other, and the aftermath of energy waved up and down again, and gravel and debris flew across.Seeing this, Xiao Man moved slightly to the side, and raised his eyes to look at the other side of the cave.
The way out was still blocked, and there were five Guiyuan Realms there.
And they all return to Yuanshangjing.
Xiao Man lowered his eyes, spent half a breath thinking, and asked the other three people with sideways eyes: "Do you want to try to kill the enemy by crossing the two realms?"
"You can give it a try." Wei Chuyun narrowed his eyes slightly, gripping the hilt of his sword tightly.
Qu Hanxing and Mo Juntian all said "yes".
The four formed a sword formation.
They are disciples of Gushan, they use Gushan swordsmanship, and the formed formation can naturally be called Gushan sword formation, although it is not comparable to the real big formation of Gushan, but it has more or less shape and spirit.
The castration is extremely fierce.
But in the end, he was still at a disadvantage. After all, the opponent was five Guiyuan Shangjing, and he lost by the number alone.
Xiao Man didn't change his face, he raised his palm upwards, and a cluster of real phoenix flames ignited in his palm.
The temperature of the entire cave rose at this moment, and the corners of his plain white clothes were windless, his eyes were pitch black, but the lines on his forehead were red.
Holding the sword in one hand, he walked towards the five Guiyuan Realms on the opposite side. His movement seemed to be extremely slow, but in the next instant, he disappeared from sight.When he reappeared, he folded his hands into palms and slapped one of his opponents on the chest!
How can ordinary practitioners endure the burning of the real fire of the phoenix?In less than a moment, the person turned into ashes.The other four returning to Yuanjing retreated immediately, and Wei Chuyun and the others saw the right moment to make a move.
They seized the rhythm of the attack, but the gap in the realm was still flawed. The four returning to the original realm looked at each other, looking for an opportunity to escape, quickly changed positions, and formed the same formation!
How does the sword formation produced by the Baoxu Realm compare with the killing formation produced by the Guiyuan Realm!The four return to the original realm, the four swords turned into one sword, approaching with endless murderous intent.
Xiao Man ignited the real fire of Phoenix again, but the speed of the other party was even faster!
The sword light was about to fall.
Suddenly, Xiao Man recalled the scene of him burning Xueyi Peak with the real fire of Phoenix in his previous life.In the deep winter, Xueyi Peak is covered with white snow, and a fire suddenly rises, which is quite dazzling.
And at this moment, a ray of brilliance suddenly rose in the cave, dazzling and dazzling!
That point of light shot out from between Xiao Man's eyebrows, and spread in an instant, like a torrent, rushing towards the sword that was about to fall, easily dissipating, and then rushing to the four return to the original realm.
The sword intent that landed here silently gathered, condensed into dots of streamer, and stabbed at them fiercely.
The killing blade is invisible, and the throat is sealed when it passes.
It was clearly a murder scene, but it was extremely dazzling and gorgeous.
Boom!Boom!Boom!Boom!
The sound of four falling to the ground sounded on the same beat, and everyone who blocked their way turned into ghosts.
Qu Hanxing's hand holding the sword was shaking, and he was very excited: "Brother Man, you are so powerful!"
"It's not me." Xiao Man whispered.It was the sword formula that Yan Wushu tapped between his eyebrows that night when he and Yan Wushu resolved the matter of sealing the altar.
But at this moment, Fatty, who was fighting endlessly with Zhou Daozhe, suddenly attacked Xiao Man and the others.
Zhou Daozhe's reaction was extremely fast, or in other words, he expected this person to have such thoughts early in the morning, so he dodged to stop him, threw the hammer that Yan Wushu gave him to Xiao Man, and sternly shouted: "Let's go!"
The fat man sneered, "I'm afraid you won't have time when you get there."
"Go!" Zhou Daoist said again.
Xiao Man and the others turned around and left. Qu Hanxing found a few light-weight talismans and slapped each of them.
The speed of the people increased a lot, and they never encountered a fork along the way. They rushed all the way, and after about a quarter of an hour, the road came to an end.
This is a platform. The Dan'er seen in the portrait is standing on the edge of the platform. Behind it, the river water falls from a high place, splashing Zhang-high water splashes, which are crystal clear.
The aura is abundant, so thick that it is almost impossible to breathe.Dan'er has already been activated, and a faint light surrounds his body.
"Didn't the fat man say that even if we go there, there will be no time?" Qu Hanxing felt puzzled, and glanced at the way he came.
Mo Juntian walked up to Dan'er, sized him up carefully, and said: "Leave him alone, maybe he wants to trick us."
Xiao Man also walked towards Dan'er, but after taking two steps, he immediately retreated, stood still, and asked in a calm voice, "How long have we been walking?"
Qu Hanxing said: "Just half a cup of tea."
"No." Xiao Man said with downcast eyes.
He heard a bell in the distance.
Dang, Dang, Dang... Tapping one after another, no matter the strength of the tapping or the rhythm of the interval, they are very familiar.
They have been in Shenjing City for several days, and they can hear such voices every morning.
It was the bell that rang when the Shenjing morning market opened.
But the opening of Shenjing City does not mean that——
"It's the second day now." Xiao Man frowned, "That road is really strange!"
"What?" Qu Hanxing was shocked.
Mo Juntian pressed his arm, motioning him to listen carefully.
"...Qing Kaijiao is really well prepared." Qu Hanxing's complex expression lasted only for a short moment, and then he recovered his expression and waved his hands: "This is the morning market, not the evening market. Now we are in front of Dan'er , just hit it directly?"
"Senior Wu said yes." Mo Juntian said.
Qu Hanxing rolled up his sleeves: "Okay, let's crush it with a hammer!"
Xiao Man took out the hammer from Qiankun Ring and handed it to Qu Hanxing.
Qu Hanxing held it with both hands, took a deep breath, and swung it towards Dan'er.
Boom!
There was a loud noise, and smoke and dust rose from all directions, but we have to wait and see——
Dan'er stood where he was, motionless.
"Maybe you need to hit it a few more times." Qu Hanxing laughed, gritted his teeth, and swung the hammer again.
After the loud noise hit the ground, a dent appeared on the surface of Dan's ear, but it did not break.
"I'll do it." Mo Juntian stretched out his hand towards Qu Hanxing.
Once, twice, three times...
I can't count how many times, whether it is stabbing, hacking, chopping, or beheading, no matter if the four of them exert their strength at the same time or hold the hammer alone, they all fall short.
Standing in front of Dan'er, Xiao Man sighed softly: "It was only a little bit close to smashing it. If the hammer was of a higher grade, it would be successful."
In the south of Shenjing City, floats from all over the country have been parked here.Before dawn, Sister Qin urged everyone to get up and wash up, but she didn't see Xiao Man and Mo Juntian until she got on the float. She was so angry that she paced back and forth:
"Xiao'er and Xiaotian haven't come yet?"
"Really, where did you go this time!"
Shitang glanced in the direction of Famous Flowers, squeezed out a smile, and went to comfort Sister Qin: "Don't worry, they will be back soon."
But he heard a sneer: "The outsider is indeed an outsider."
Immediately afterwards, another person said: "Fortunately, the sisters never counted on the three of you. Even if you didn't come, we could still dance the whole Furong Que."
"I don't look very good, and I don't dance very well. To put it bluntly, I came to Shenjing City with us to get rich. Shameless bitch, I gave a lot of money for nothing."
The person who spoke was Xiuwuhui's leader dancer and her supporters, Shitang blushed with anger: "How could you say that! Without them, you might have reached the Western Paradise!"
The lead dancer laughed again: "You are so coy about cursing people to death, do you really think you are some kind of famous young lady?"
Not long after, the opening bell of Shenjing City rang, but Xiao Man and Mo Juntian were still missing.Sister Qin ignored Shitang, and talked with Xiuwu back to everyone about changing the dance.
Seeing their figures, Shitang wished she could leave without shaking her hands.
But suddenly, loud noises came from the north of the city one after another.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Coming from the direction of Minghua Qingguo, even the road in the south of the city trembled.Many people fell down on the float, and there was a sound of scolding father and mother.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The voice continued, and Shitang pinched the Buddhist beads on his wrist, feeling an ominous premonition.
Yesterday Yan Wushu looked for her alone.
At that time she was wandering in the courtyard of the post house, Yan Wushu didn't say hello, suddenly appeared in front of her, and said to her: "Little girl, could you please lend me Buwen Zhong?"
Shitang was surprised by his appearance, but Yan Wushu added: "Of course, it may not be used."
"That's what Xiao Man and the others asked to find. What are you going to do with it?" Shitang asked puzzled.
Yan Wushu: "Use it to raise the grade of a magic weapon."
"Wouldn't it be gone if you don't hear the bell?" Shitang's eyes widened.
"It may not be useful." Yan Wushu laughed, paused, and then said: "It has something to do with destroying Dan'er."
Shitang knew Dan'er's role well, so he hesitated a little when he heard the words, and asked, "But I lent it to you, so what about Xiao Man's and the others' tasks?"
"I'm their teacher, and I have the right to decide whether they pass the mission this time." Yan Wushu flicked his sleeves, saying affirmatively.
"Really?" Shi Tang was still skeptical.
"Really." Yan Wushu said.
Shitang rolled her eyes, thought for a while, and said, "Then you swear, if Buwen Zhong is really used, you are not allowed to judge them to have failed in their mission, not only that, but also to give them a good evaluation."
"Okay, I swear." Yan Wushu nodded.
Practitioners are very serious about their promises, and they swear to the sky. If they violate it, they will be punished by heaven.Seeing him like this, Shitang turned around and walked under the crabapple tree:
"Okay, I'll give you Xijiangyue's token."
"You don't need to give it to me." Yan Wushu shook his head, "When you think you need it, give it to Xiao Man."
The night osmanthus that filled the courtyard was still in his nose, Shitang thought to himself that they didn't stop after smashing so many times, they must have needed to use Bu Wen Zhong, so he didn't think too much about it, and took the corner of the skirt to the edge of the float, directly Turn it out.
Immediately behind her, there was an angry curse: "Outsider, it really is an outsider!"
Shitang didn't care what the person who returned from Xiuwu said, but she accidentally staggered a step when she landed, and she was about to fall. Fortunately, someone on the side of the road came to help her, and reached out to help her.
"Little girl, even if you are in a hurry, don't jump from such a high place." Shen Juan was the one who shot, and he said to Shitang with a smile.
"Thank you..." Shitang took a step back and raised his head to thank him. When he saw the man's face clearly, he was slightly taken aback.It was the one who bought the antler mask before her that night. This man was extremely good-looking, with fan-shaped peach eyes and a smile, which made it difficult for her to find words to describe it.
But this is not the main reason why Shitang was stunned. She has been with Xiao Man and others for a few days, and she has more or less learned how to distinguish a practitioner from an ordinary person.The person in front of him is very likely to be a practitioner. Although he is dressed in black, he has an air of dust. Shitang thought that he should not be a remnant of the Qing Kai Sect, and a thought crossed his mind.
"My lord, are you a practitioner?" Shitang lowered her voice and asked cautiously.
Shen Juan also lowered his voice, and replied cautiously: "Young lady has good eyesight."
"Then can you ask my son to do me a favor?" Shitang stretched out both hands and said while gesturing, "I'll give you a reward, and I'll give you whatever you want!"
Shen Juan said with a smile, "Tell me what you are doing first."
Shitang said: "Send me to one, two, three...three places!"
"It's a trivial matter, and you don't need to pay." Shen Juan nodded.
"Go to the posthouse first!" Shitang said urgently.
She thought that this person would fly with her for a while like Xiao Man, but she didn't expect that he arrived in the courtyard of the post house as soon as the words landed.
"My lord, you are really...too amazing!" Shitang was dumbfounded.She did not forget the purpose of her trip, she saluted Shen Juanfu, and ran quickly to the Begonia flower to take out the token.
Returning to Shen Juan, he said again, "The next place is Xijiangyue."
Shen Juan: "Okay."
In the blink of an eye again, the shop that Shitang visited once appeared in front of him.
"My lord, you are a god! You are just like the heroine who saved me back then!" Shitang exclaimed, went in with a token, and returned the Qiankun Ring that Xiao Man gave her.
Shen Juan came to her side and asked, "Okay, where is the third place?"
"Famous flowers are all over the country." Shitang said.
But Shen Juan said: "There is an enchantment there."
"Ah? You're right..." Shitang came to her senses, with a look of disappointment on her face.But this look didn't last long, she remembered that Qu Hanxing had given her a teleportation talisman.
Maybe use that.
Just as she was thinking, Shen Juan spoke again: "You can't stop me."
It turned out that this guy had only spoken half of what he had just said.
It was another flick of the fingers, and the scenery around Shitang changed for the third time.She found that this young master had sent the Buddha to the west, directly sent her to a place only Zhang Xu away from Xiao Man and the others.
The four of Xiao Man surrounded the hammer, all frowning.
Shitang took a step towards them, remembering that she hadn't thanked them yet, but turned around and saw that person had disappeared.
Practitioners are still mostly kind-hearted people.Shitang muttered in her heart.
Xiao Man found Shitang not far away, at first he thought he was wrong, but after confirming it, he wondered: "Why did you come here?"
Qu Hanxing also looked up: "No, how did you get here?"
"I met a formidable hero on the way!" Shitang compared a tall figure, trotted in front of everyone, and handed the Qiankun ring to Xiao Man, "Don't talk about this, I'm here to send you Bu Wen Zhong, isn't it?" Can it be used to improve the grade of the magic weapon? I think it should be able to be used."
Xiao Man and Qu Hanxing looked at each other, then at Wei Chuyun and Mo Juntian.
They all understood each other's eyes: "Use it, it is originally a sacrificial vessel, and it is used to improve the grade of other magical instruments, which is the purpose of its creation."
At this moment, the Taoist surnamed Zhou walked out of the cave with his sword in hand and came to the platform.His sword was stained with blood, his body was injured in many places, and his expression was slightly tired.
"This is what your task requires to find." Zhou Daoist glanced at a few people and said in a low voice.
"Senior Zhou, did you beat that fat man?" Seeing him, Qu Hanxing greeted him with a smile on his face, "Do you need some wound medicine? Hurry up, sit down and rest."
The thoughtful man waved his hand and did not mention the matter.
Qu Hanxing said again: "Senior Zhou, the mission said that we should find it, but it didn't say that we must take it back!"
"Senior Zhou, please be a witness for us, this magic weapon, it is called Bu Wen Zhong, and now we have found it."
He said "Senior Zhou" one by one, with a pleading tone in his tone, the Taoist surnamed Zhou nodded: "Okay."
"Thank you Senior Zhou!" Qu Hanxing cupped his hands to salute.
"But there is a problem." Xiao Man took out the Bu Wen Zhong, and held it in his hand through the cloud of spiritual energy, while the other hand was the hammer that Shen Juan reminded him to find, with a serious tone, "This sacrificial vessel, we How to feed it."
Everyone was silent, and for a while, there was the sound of splashing water.
"Using a sacrificial vessel to raise a magic weapon can only be done in a specific device." Wei Chuyun said.
Shitang then asked, "Can you buy it in the market?"
"It can be..."
Wei Chuyun hadn't finished speaking when Shitang pulled up his sleeves, "What are you talking about, let's go quickly! I came out with a lot of money, enough to keep!"
This is not a question of money, but that you need to go to a special place to buy it, but they are not familiar with Shenjing City, so it is difficult to start. Wei Chuyun pursed his lips, thinking that there must be one in the palace, and maybe they can borrow it.Just as he was about to speak, he heard the Taoist surnamed Zhou say, "I'll come."
Xiao Man had seen how Yan Wushu refined the magic weapon, so he immediately knew what the Taoist surnamed Zhou was thinking. He stepped forward and handed the Buwen Bell and Hammer to him, and saluted: "Thank you, Senior Zhou."
The Taoist surnamed Zhou accepted his gift and said, "But it will take a lot of time."
"If there is not enough time, we will try to delay it." Xiao Man said.
Several people found a place to sit down.The Taoist surnamed Zhou drew out a formation with his fingers, and then drew some spiritual energy from Dan's ear, which had been smashed to the surface, and began to refine the magic weapon.
"There is plenty of spiritual energy here, so we should be able to catch up." The Taoist surnamed Zhou comforted everyone.
Shitang worried all night last night, leaned against the wall, closed his eyes and fell asleep.She didn't know how long she slept, she only knew that she was very hungry after waking up.
Xiao Man took out a small porcelain bottle: "Bigu Dan, the taste is not very good, but I am very hungry, do you want to eat it?"
"It's fine if you're not hungry!" Shitang nodded hastily, and then asked: "What time is it now?"
"About Shen time." Xiao Man has been paying attention to the sound of drums outside to tell the time.
Shitang fell asleep again.
Qu Hanxing sat in meditation for a while, got up and paced, turned to Zhou Daoist, looked at the hammer, then went to Dan'er, took out an ordinary hammer, and gave it a hammer.
This cycle went on and on, and after a long time, I couldn't help asking: "What time is it now?"
Xiao Man frowned indistinctly: "It's time."
After a while, sporadic cheers came from the deep underground.
Mo Juntian stood up with a bang: "The ceremony has begun!"
At the same time, a burst of crackling sounds came from Dan's ears!
Qu Hanxing was the closest to it, and quickly moved away in fright: "This is not...isn't it going to explode!"
As if to confirm his words, another sound came from inside Dan's ear.
Xiao Man looked to the other side, and said in a deep voice, "Senior Zhou, how long will it take!"
"One hour." The Taoist surnamed Zhou replied.
"One hour is enough for all the performance groups to go around the street..." Qu Hanxing was in a hurry, and at the end, remembering his last trick of leaving the teleportation talisman, he quickly took out the things and distributed them to everyone.
In the process of waiting, time always moves slowly, and anxiety undoubtedly deepens this feeling.
Xiao Man took back his Buddhist beads from Shitang, chanted the mantra of clearing the heart, and moved them one by one, forcing himself to calm down.Zhou Taoist drew some spiritual energy from Dan's ears again, trying to speed up, after a while, he said: "A quarter of an hour."
But the sound of clicking and clenching came from the inside of Dan's ears continuously. The sound could be called crisp, but it fell on everyone's hearts like a drum beating.
"Can you put a sound barrier on it?" Qu Hanxing kept scratching his head.
Zhou Daozhe shook his head, his tone helpless: "Ordinary enchantment can't do anything with it, unless the master comes in person."
Xiao Man pursed his lips, made a decision, stood up and said, "It's better to let everyone on the street shut up."
"Unless the ceremony is stopped, the old emperor is unwilling to stop the ceremony." Qu Hanxing looked sad.
Xiao Man said calmly: "The mortals always like to applaud when watching juggling and opera. The weirder the thing, the more flattery and applause it will get. in, but keep silent."
Immediately looking at Shitang: "Miss Shi, can you do me a favor?"
"Tell me." Shitang also stood up.
Xiao Man looked at her intently: "Let's go up there, I'll play the flute, and you dance."
"But, we can't get on the float anymore." Shitang felt it was difficult.
"Have you forgotten where we are?" Xiao Man smiled slightly.
Her eyes lit up: "Famous flowers are all over the country!"
But after thinking of something in a flash, he was quite disappointed: "But...their attention is not here, we just dance, it is difficult to attract people."
Xiao Man: "I'll solve this problem."
"The mystery on that passage has been lifted." The Taoist surnamed Zhou reminded him aloud.
Xiao Man expressed his thanks, and took Shitang directly away against the wind.
When we came to the ground, we realized that the entire city of Shenjing seemed to be lit, immersed in the brilliant lights.Everywhere is dazzling, the float moves forward slowly, the people on it wear all kinds of makeup, the petals and colored paper are scattered, like a continuous rain.
The alleys are empty and the sky is full of hustle and bustle.
A circus was performing on Central Avenue. They brought bears, elephants, and tigers. Just these few things shocked the common people. Not to mention the animal trainers also brought them to perform.
The famous flower in the north is full of no one's attention, Xiao Man walked up with Shitang, and asked her in a low voice: "Are you ready?"
Shitang coughed lightly: "I can do it anytime! But is it really okay?"
"Trust me." Xiao Man chuckled, and then said, "But I want to borrow something from you."
"What?" Shitang asked.
Xiao Man lowered his eyes, showing a little shame: "Do you still have the mask you bought last time? I don't want to be seen by so many people. I want one."
"Just keep one." Shitang smiled and nodded.
What she took out from the magic weapon was the antler mask.Xiao Man was slightly surprised, "You didn't send it home?"
Shitang touched the antlers on the mask, and explained: "The pair of horns are too long, I'm afraid they might break when I put them in the box, so I don't have them."
"Thank you." Xiao Man knew the identity of the person who wanted to give him the mask that night, so he took it over his face without any doubts, then took out the bamboo flute, put it on his lips, and played it softly.
The flute sound is crisp.
It is the sound of spring water in the mountains, bit by bit, refreshing the heart and spleen; it is the sound of chirping in the forest, crisp and pure.
The sound is pleasant and clean.
The sound of birds flapping their wings came from the sky, and the winged family came from all directions, circling and flying, and surrounded the country with famous flowers.
Their bird feathers are bright and gorgeous, and under the rendering of lights, they seem to be colored silk woven by immortals in the sky.
The first person to notice this scene was the child who was held up on his father's shoulders. She pulled his father's hair, then patted his mother, and pointed to the famous flower: "Father, mother, look, it's so beautiful there!"
The second person he found was the young master who was fighting for wine with others on the high pavilion. He was stunned for a moment, then put down the wine cup, got up and stood in front of the railing.
The family of three looked together.
The people beside the young master looked.
The people who crowded the whole street looked over.
Everyone in Shenjing City looked at it.
But seeing famous flowers all over the country, someone dressed in white and played the flute, attracting a hundred birds to congratulate.His face was covered by a deer antler mask, but his sleeves fluttered like an exile.
The beautiful woman dances to the music, flicking her sleeves and tapping her toes.The birds came to her feet and built a bridge, she seemed to be dancing on the legendary magpie bridge
Everyone was excited, and then held their breath, for fear of disturbing this dreamlike fairy scene.
Time passed by little by little, brushing Shitang's rising and falling clothes, skimming away from Xiao Man's bamboo flute, and going away silently.
Shitang closed his eyes, Xiao Man closed his eyes, they didn't worry, because worry has no effect.
A quarter of an hour is a cup of tea and a stick of incense.
Let the tea fragrance overflow, let the smoke float, and let the city's brilliant lights burn out the anticipation, tension, worry, and joy.
The sound of the flute is melodious and the dance is beautiful.
The lights are shining all over the city, reflecting the moon in the sky, but it can't dim the brilliance here.
The elapsed time is gathered into a thread, turning into a stroke of endless history.
The moment the tea aroma and smoke dissipated, the lights crackled and the candles flickered.
The end of the song.
Dancing.
The people in the imperial city have not dispersed.
Just when the sleeves fell down, when the night wind turned, and when those eyes opened, a heaven-shaking sound came from under Famous Flowers!
boom--
The river made waves, the crowd screamed, and the shadows of flowers, branches and leaves all over the city trembled.
Then the waves receded, the screams disappeared, and the flowers and leaves were determined by the wind.
