Sir, this sword is a keepsake

A hundred meters outside the south gate of Lianyun City, a carriage slowly stopped under a tall ancient tree.This carriage was originally a log color that can be seen normally, however, for unknown reasons, the surface of the wood was stained with a light black paint, walking in the night, the body melted into the dark night, only the horseshoes and the rolling wheels showed it The presence.

The driver was a tall man in purple robes, his eyebrows and eyes were coquettish, and a pair of pupils had a blue luster flowing in the dark place.

He stepped on the wooden plank with bare feet, tapped lightly, and hummed a strange and strange melody while watching the two horses lower their heads to eat grass.

Seeing the indistinct white mist in the northern sky, his pupils gradually narrowed, and finally turned into a faint green!

After a while, his pupils returned to normal.

"Forget it, don't get involved."

At the same time, there was a scalp-numbing "hissing" sound in the carriage,

The purple-robed man lightly waved his horsewhip and started on the road again, but did not choose to enter the city.The night wind from the south of the city blew past, and the robes on his chest were blown away, revealing his smooth skin and shaking bone chains.

……

"Tell me what kind of place it is to see Wuxiang Building." Shen Fang scratched the tip of his nose with his fingers, and looked at Nangong Fuyun.

Nangong Fuyun stared at the dancing candles on the table, "There are six floors in Wuxiang Building. Four floors are on the ground and two floors are underground. Each floor has masters of different levels guarding the entrance and connecting the upper and lower floors. stairs."

"And its appearance is very eye-catching. Half of it is painted with black paint, and usually half of it is painted with white paint. It happens to split the body of the building into black and white halves. Therefore, once you see it, you will recognize it. It is the Wuxiang Building."

She paused, seeing that the two had no doubts, she continued, "The problem is that Wuxiang Building is actually two buildings."

Shen Fang and Zhuang Li frowned at the same time.

"The two buildings have exactly the same appearance and the same interior decoration. Nangong Lingyun has two sets of all his collections. One is real and the other is fake. According to his wishes, he randomly places them in one of the buildings. There is a reversal."

"But the masters and agencies of the two buildings are real, so even if someone is fully prepared, unless he can separate the two teams and act at the same time, otherwise, if he chooses wrong, he will give Nangong Yunyun a counterattack and transfer opportunities."

"What kind of institutions are they?"

"It's some strange Dunjia techniques that our ancestors obtained in exchange for friendship with Shangqing Guan. Those mechanisms are alive, so the techniques to crack them are also alive. Only when we get there can we know how to crack them." Nangong Fuyun Dun After a pause, "Nangong Fuyun and I lived together and were educated when we were young. Those things are not difficult for me."

"Shangqing Temple..." Shen Fang said the name lightly, and a kind old man with white hair and childlike face appeared in his mind.

He didn't expect that Wuxianglou would be related to Shangqing Temple, and the seniors of Nangong Fuyun and Nangong Lingyun had friendship with Shangqing Temple, so would they also know the senior Guixuzi?

The old man in Shen Fang's mind was Guixuzi, the master of the Shangqing Temple. It was rumored that he was over a hundred years old and half-stepped into the fairy gate.When Shen Fang saw Guixuzi for the first time when he was young, he was talking happily with his father Shen Yucheng under an old tree in the villa.In the late spring for several consecutive years, Guixuzi would suddenly come to the villa, and then leave suddenly on a certain day.

From Shen Fang's point of view, this old man with a big white beard is not as hypocritical as the other sect leaders Shen Yucheng befriended, but rather approachable.

I don't know when it started, he no longer came to Yongxia Villa.

Shen Fang asked Shen Yucheng, and Shen Yucheng just returned to the ruins to stay in Shangqing to watch and protect something.

Seeing Shen Fang's reaction, Nangong Fuyun pondered for a while, then smiled, "It seems that you have also met Daoist Guixuzi."

Among the three, only Zhuang Li had never heard of Shangqing Temple, and he didn't know who Guixuzi was.

"Go on." Shen Fang was noncommittal.

"I said before that Nangong Lingyun usually stays on the top floor of the Wuxiang Building. His room there is not allowed to trespass or pry into his room except himself or the people he brings in."

"Anyway, if your sword manual is really that precious, then it is very likely that it is at the top."

Shen Fang nodded, looked at Zhuang Li, "Do you want me to tell you about Shangqing Temple?"

Nangong Fuyun hurriedly said, "Shen Fang, the longer it is delayed, the worse it will be for us."

Shen Fang blinked, "It shouldn't be a big problem to protect you tonight and send you out of Lanzhou."

Nangong Fuyun frowned slightly, "Are you going to sit and wait for death? Nangong Lingyun won't come to kill me with a sword manual." She paused, then sneered, "You are afraid of the thick fog of unknown origin tonight Bar."

Shen Fang grinned, "Let me tell you the truth, I never made up my mind to go to Wuxianglou. I just said it casually in the car, and I just asked you about Wuxianglou just out of curiosity. And , Whether I get the sword manual back or not has nothing to do with you, Miss Nangong."

Nangong Fuyun stared at Shen Fang, knowing that she had been tricked by Shen Fang, she couldn't speak for a while, pursed her lips, and relaxed her body all of a sudden.She lowered her head, and her eyes flickered slightly where the two of them could not see.

"We met a master before, and he advised us not to underestimate Nangong Lingyun. Combining what you said, and what happened along the way today, I really can't think of any reason to take the risk to go to Wuxiang Tower tonight." Shen After a pause, "Even if Nangong Lingyun didn't make this weird fog, it wouldn't be good for us."

Nangong Fuyun raised her head again, raised her eyebrows slightly, "A master? Here?"

"He's a swordsman. He escaped from your brother's hands three times."

Nangong Fuyun's eyes rolled slowly, looking at the ground, as if thinking of something.

"You know this man?"

"I heard about it, but I just didn't expect him to be in Lanzhou." Nangong Fuyun said in surprise.

"Why can't he be in Lanzhou?" Shen Fang and Zhuang Li said in unison.

Nangong Fuyun looked at Shen Fang, then at Zhuang Li, "The more you know, the more dangerous you are, I advise you not to ask."

Zhuang Li shrugged and snorted disdainfully.

Shen Fang said, "I don't intend to have any trouble with that person. If Nangong Lingyun has a brain, he should keep his own place tonight."

"You don't understand Nangong Lingyun at all." Nangong Fuyun said expressionlessly.

"If he hadn't killed the person who killed Bi Luodao and took that thing, I wouldn't want to understand him." Shen Fang said indifferently, "In short, we guarantee that you will survive tonight, if he is in this room and kills you , I, Shen Fang, cut off his head and used it as a stool for him."

As soon as the ruthless words were said, Zhuang Li was about to tease Shen Fang a few words, but Nangong Fuyun gave Shen Fang a strange look, and said leisurely: "Suddenly I want to die at his hands."

"..." Shen reassured: This woman is really not normal, no, it should be said, maybe both brothers and sisters are not normal...

It was past Haishi at this moment, and the bustle of the streets when entering the city disappeared without a trace, and the whole city fell into a deathly silence. It seemed that all panting creatures hid back to their lairs, holding their breath and waiting for something.

Under the moonlight, only the white mist flows slowly and lingering silently, entrenched in the streets and alleys.

The three of them sat silently for several seconds, as if they could even hear a needle fall on the ground.Zhuang Li took the lead in standing up and walking back and forth, as if he couldn't stand the atmosphere of looking at each other with nowhere to look.

Da da da's footsteps seemed so abrupt and conspicuous in the quiet building, he unconsciously immediately slowed down his footsteps and hid the footsteps.

"If that's the case, then I'll lie down and rest first."

After finishing speaking, Nangong Fuyun stood up and walked towards the bed at the back of the room, untied the bed curtain, and got in.She was wrapped in a quilt, so she didn't even cover her with a quilt.

Half a column of incense passed.

Shen Fang drank two bowls of tea, plus the wine he drank earlier. At this time, his desire to go to the toilet gradually became stronger. He was about to get up and go out, but was stopped by Zhuang Li who had been standing on one side for a long time, and pulled him to the window.

After Zhuang Li confirmed that Nangong Fuyun hadn't noticed, he leaned close to Shen Fang's ear and lowered his voice, "What's going on? What things have you kept from me?"

Shen Xin thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Didn't you have doubts when you were in Fengshan before?"

"Fake?" Zhuang Li silently mouthed these two words, while Shen Fang nodded.

The sword manual that Shen Fang left in the room at that time was indeed a fake!What Biluodao stole was fake, so what Wuxianglou got is also fake!

Zhuang Li let out a long breath, took a look at Shen Fang, and said in a normal voice: "Your face is a little blue from urinating, go quickly."

Shen Fang walked out of the room with a slightly blue face, but he was not green from urination, but stimulated by Zhuang Li's words.The Qiyun Building was still brightly lit, but there were no people to be seen.He walked downstairs slowly.

Out of the instinctive and strong curiosity of his temperament, Shen Fang walked towards the gate and glanced out cautiously.

The gray moonlight outside the Qiyun Tower, the dark red shadow of the building and the ground, and the depths of the thick fog are clear and clear, and something begins to appear.

It all gave him an eerie sense of suffocation.With just one glance, he retreated into the hall.

The moment Shen Fang retreated into the house, in a place he couldn't see, as if he was ordered by someone, in an instant, many bleak white lanterns lit up in all directions at the same time, like a pair of white lanterns. Pussy eyes with pupils opened at the same time, densely packed, shadowy and ghostly.

Something carried these lanterns and moved quickly in groups, transmitting the agitation to a distance. Suddenly, the thickness of the fog became more and more uneven.

There was a gap in a window at the top of the Qiyun Tower, and a quiet pool-like eye looked at the stirred fog area without blinking.From Zhuang Li's point of view, those are like scary white spots everywhere.

Above the window, is a closed window, and above that, a protruding eaves.Above the eaves, a black figure remained motionless, looking at the changed area that Zhuang Li was looking at.

Laughing at the wind and holding his breath, he hid all his vitality, like a dead thing, melting into the night and white mist, observing and waiting.

At this moment, he could confirm that the fog was related to those people who couldn't see the light.Fortunately, he notified the government office in advance and asked them to strengthen the guards and patrols, and forbid idlers and unrelated people to wander around tonight.

Anyone who takes to the streets without authorization will be arrested and imprisoned, waiting to be dealt with.

At this moment, several desolate wolf howls broke the silence.After a while, there was a creak, and the window at the bottom was pushed open without knowing how hard it was.Xiaofeng's eyelids twitched, and he frowned when he saw a gray figure leap out from below and fly straight into the depths of the white mist.

Before Huiying left, he didn't even forget to close the window again.

Xiao Feng froze, his face full of astonishment:

"What is he doing?"
