Chun Feng Du Jian

On Du Ruo Peak, everyone was stunned and aphasic. In the silence of the mountain, only the crackling sound of kerosene burning remained. The dancing flames were projected on the huge iron cage made of fine steel, illuminating the man with disheveled hair like hell crawling out. Shura evil spirits.His face, body, hands and feet were covered with bloodstains, his cheeks were thin and sunken, his complexion was pale and bleak, and only a pair of eyes were horribly bright, like a very hungry beast.

Xue Qinglan whistled and asked, "Did you hear what Chu Songzheng said just now?"

Li Zhi nodded stiffly.

"Okay." Xue Qinglan said, "Then let me tell you the details in front of the heroes of the world."

Chu Songzheng's wishful thinking was very sure, but he never expected that Xue Qinglan would make a move. While telling people to go to "Li Zhi" who was still by his side just now, he lowered his voice and asked: "Xue Hufa, what are you doing?" What are you going to do?!"

"Nothing," Xue Qinglan said calmly, leaning on the cage, "I just asked Li Zhilai to confront you according to your wishes."

Chu Song was gnashing his teeth and asked, "Where's Wen Heng?!"

Xue Qinglan said with a smile: "Master Chu, you summoned everyone to Mount Hengwu, spoke eloquently, and blamed all the crimes on Wen Heng. Why did you sing to the most important point? You're asking for someone from me—this desolate country, where can I find someone for you?"

"you!"

Chu Song was being ridiculed by him, no matter how slow he was, he could see that something was wrong, and whispered angrily, "Xue Qinglan, don't forget that the Chu family and the Chui Xingzong have an agreement, you are now rebellious, and you are not afraid of being held accountable by Fang Wuqin in the future." What?!"

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid to death." Xue Qinglan said, "So in front of so many people, why don't Master Chu tell everyone, what conditions did you Si Youshan negotiate with my Chui Xingzong?"

At this time, the group of heroes in the audience finally realized that there seemed to be something tricky in it, and someone shouted at Chu Songzheng: "Master Chu, what is going on? Where is your witness?"

Xue Qinglan turned around and gestured for silence, and said: "Here is the witness that the head of Chu wants. If you are interested, you might as well listen to what he has to say." He knocked on the iron cage with the scabbard, and said to Li Zhi: "Let's talk."

Li Zhi's voice was as hoarse as if he had just swallowed a handful of coarse sand, but he was still clearly distinguishable. Everyone could only hear him speak slowly and hoarsely: "I am a collateral child of the Sword Sect of the Chu family. Elder Mausoleum, and later because... because of fighting with the same sect and violating the sect rules, he was expelled from the sect by the Chunjun Sect and returned to Siyou Mountain."

The person standing next to the Chunjun faction happened to be Lianzhou Huanyanmen, and those who had something to do asked in a low voice: "Why is he also a member of your Chunjun faction?"

Liao Changxing was the only one who came to Yuquan Peak today. He looked at the figure on the stage carefully for a moment, then nodded in affirmation, and replied: "Yes, it was indeed him. Back then, Elder Yue... Wen Heng was still under the teacher of his family. Li Zhi I had some quarrels with him, and intentionally hurt people, so I was expelled from the Chunjun faction."

The man asked curiously: "So, doesn't he hate Wen Heng to death?"

Liao Changxing couldn't answer him, but he heard Li Zhi continue to say: "I started as the most humble deacon disciple of the Chu family, and it took me seven years to rise to the top and let the head and elders see me. Withered, the strength is not as good as before. In recent years, the imperial court has repeatedly revealed the intention to eradicate the forces in the Jianghu, so the head of the sect thinks this is a good time to revive the prestige of the sect. He asked me to act on his behalf and contact the inner guards of the imperial court in private , I would like to use this faction as a dark chess piece for the inner guards in the martial arts, and provide convenience for the imperial court."

Although his few words were short, the meaning revealed in them was like thunder, and it exploded on the top of Duruo Peak. Han Nanfu drew his sword brazenly and shouted angrily: "Chu Songzheng, you have tried every means to pour dirty water on my Chunjun style. That's the idea!"

If what Li Zhi said was true, the Chu family's sword faction would not only offend the Chunjun faction, but would risk the world's displeasure and make enemies of the Central Plains martial arts.

Chu Songzheng's heart was beating like a beating drum, and a thin layer of sweat was pouring out from his forehead, but he shouted with force: "Nonsense! This person must be coerced by others, so he intentionally slandered my Chu family's name. Do you want to listen to his side of the story!"

Xue Qinglan clapped his hands beside him, and said in a neutral manner: "That's a good point, isn't it just one-sided words for those who shouted and killed here tonight?"

His half-smile gaze turned around on Chu Songzheng's face, and he leisurely said to Li Zhi: "Don't stop, keep talking."

Li Zhidao: "At the Sword Discussion Conference, the inner guard robbed a hundred disciples from Siyou Mountain. It was a plan that had been discussed a long time ago. I followed the instructions of the master that night, and set a drug in advance in the drinks and tea at the banquet. Pretending to be lethargic and being taken away by the inner guards—a total of ten disciples of the Chu Family Sword Sect were captured, all of whom were confidantes of the head and knew the details long ago. When the inner guards divided the prison carts, they deliberately picked out one from each sect's disciples. Names are locked together, so that everyone knows that someone from the Chu Family Sword Sect has also been captured. In this way, the suspicion of accomplices can be cleared, and secondly, it can also help the internal guards to monitor whether these prisoners have any abnormal behavior, so as to prevent them from escaping midway, or Someone got in and robbed the prison."

There were quite a few disciples present who had experienced the change of Xingcheng, and when they heard the words and carefully recalled the situation that day, it was indeed exactly what he said.Compared with Chu Songzheng testifying against Wen Heng, Li Zhilian can tell such details, which is undoubtedly more convincing.A disciple of the Boshan School asked loudly: "Master Chu, how do you explain this?"

There was also a dubious person beside him, who stood up and said: "According to what he said, Wen Heng just sneaked into the prison of Xingcheng to save people, why didn't they find out?"

Someone who reacted quickly slapped his head immediately, and realized: "Yes! Wen Heng didn't even hide the people in the same cell as him at the beginning! He went out to call for help when everyone was asleep, and returned before dawn. When we arrived in the cell, no one found his whereabouts, and the young hero Wen Changqing of the Chunjun faction can testify!"

Everyone's gazes immediately turned back to the Chunjun faction. Liao Changxing stood with his sword in his hand, and said calmly: "Junior Wen didn't come here for something, but according to what he said earlier, there was indeed such a thing. If you don't believe me, wait until you see him later." You can also ask him for proof again.”

One person murmured: "Wen Heng did this... Could it be that he had already guessed that there was something wrong with the Chu family's sword sect? If that's the case, this person's thoughts are too meticulous."

Those who couldn't see the Chu family's style sneered in the crowd and said: "No wonder the Chu family bothered to hold some kind of knife-testing meeting to ruin his reputation in front of the world's heroes. It turns out that he is a guilty conscience."

Chu Songzheng was anxious in his heart, as if being roasted on a fire, but Xue Qinglan refused to let him go, and continued to ask Li Zhi based on the discussion in the audience: "Since everything is a good thing done by your own family, why did you choose the news? Heng to take the blame?"

Li Zhi's life was completely held in the palm of Xue Qinglan's hands, and he answered all questions, which can be called obedient: "After Wen Heng broke the situation in the criminal city, he went to the capital again, sneaked into the forbidden palace and stole the Chunjun sword that the Chunjun faction had stolen for many years. The face of the imperial court was trampled under his feet several times. The inner guard believed that this person would become a confidant in the future, so he told us to spread the news of Wen Heng's life experience, and then fabricated a fake news that he possessed the "Big Dipper Huangu Gong", He also offered a reward of a thousand gold to buy his head, so that he would be chased and killed by the whole martial arts, and there would be no room for him in the Jianghu.

"Wen Heng's martial arts is strong and the city is deep. The head of the sect knew it would be difficult to make a move, so he secretly contacted the Chuxing Xingzong and exchanged a secret for the Chuxingxingzong to take action. Tonight's sword trial meeting was precisely because Xue Hufa caught Wen Heng. The head of the sect summoned heroes from all over the world, and wanted to crucify him for his crimes in front of everyone, so as to completely remove hidden dangers for the court."

The news revealed in his words was more earth-shattering than the last, and everyone in the audience could barely react.Those who came here with all their heart on magical skills would only hear the word "false news" and their hearts would bleed; the leaders of several sects were deeply jealous of the alliance between the Chu Family Sword Sect and the imperial court; Things will be so twists and turns, ordinary people who are confused by conspiracies and tricks, in order to find out what's going on, they don't care about the difference between sects, so they grab someone from the side and discuss it together.

Chu Songzheng couldn't hold back any longer, and shouted angrily: "It's bloody! Xue Qinglan, you ordered Li Zhi to scratch and bite randomly, do you think you can clean yourself up like this!"

Xue Qinglan sneered coldly: "Master Chu is probably old-eyed, and doesn't know who I am. I don't care about my name, unlike you righteous people who are benevolent on the surface, but are insidious in reality. Splash dirty water on your head."

Chu Song was working hard for several years, and the plan was well planned, but it was all in vain because of Xue Qinglan's betrayal.After tonight, the reputation of the Chu family's sword faction in Jianghu can no longer be restored, and he himself will lose his fortune at the end of the day, becoming a running dog and a laughing stock in the eyes of everyone.Thinking of this, a bad breath rose in his heart, and the originally flushed anger gradually cooled down, turning into a cold livid, staring at Xue Qinglan coldly and said: "Yes, the Demon Sect has always acted without any scruples. , I would like to ask Xue Hufa, what is Wen Heng's ability to seduce you to go to such lengths to protect him?"

Chui Xingzong's reputation in Jianghu has never been very good, and they often bully men and women, and force the good to evil, so Chu Songzheng's words are quite implied.However, Xue Qinglan sneered with a "heh" and mocked: "Master Chu, don't be in a hurry to pull people to block arrows. If you want to say that you have great skills, no one can beat you. You are on two boats, and the court guards and vertical The matter of Xingzong's secret communication of the song has not been clarified yet, why, don't you intend to give an explanation to everyone present?"

Chu Song was keeping silent, and suddenly got into trouble, he drew his sword and stabbed Li Zhi in the iron cage.This sword is the "Wild Crane and Guyun" in the "Yunzijue".Xue Qinglan had been guarding against his sudden attack, drew his sword and swung the sword away, while saying loudly: "If you can't make up a lie, you want to kill people? Master Chu, do you think that all the heroes and heroes in the mountains and plains are blind?"

The two quickly fought to one place, and the sound of weapons colliding could be heard endlessly. Taking advantage of his figure approaching, Chu Song was biting his back molars, and lowered his voice but still couldn't hide his anger and disappointment: "Xue Qinglan, when did I offend?" You want to plot against me like this! Or is this what Fang Wujiu meant?!"

Xue Qinglan twitched his lips, avoiding his stormy sword light, and replied quietly: "You promised to tell the suzerain the secret of Fengyuejian as long as things are done, but unfortunately I have known this secret for a long time. Your bargaining chip is basically It's worthless, so why would the Chui Xing Sect waste manpower for mere Chu Family Sword Sect?"

"Impossible!" Chu Songxiao was really taken aback this time, and lost his voice: "How did you know about this secret?!"

Xue Qinglan moved the sword like flying, and the attack was fierce. Facing a master who has been famous for a long time like Chu Songzheng, he did not lose the wind for a while. He slashed the opponent's right arm with the knife, and his voice was as cold as the blade: "Because you are not the only one in the world! People have grown heads, idiots!"

With a soft "chi", Chu Song was hit by a knife in his right arm, the hand holding the sword couldn't help shaking, and a look of pain flashed across his face.Xue Qinglan probably didn't expect it to be so easy to succeed, and suddenly became suspicious in his heart, and his next knife was delayed for a moment.What Chu Song was waiting for was the moment he hesitated, and he immediately slapped out with great force with his left palm.Fan Yang in the audience yelled "be careful", but there was only a "bang" sound, and the palm hit his chest. Xue Qinglan's body floated back a few feet, hit the thick wood supporting the brazier, and spit out a wow immediately. A mouthful of blood.

Chu Songzheng didn't hesitate any longer, he went straight with his right hand and stabbed at his throat.Fan Yang had already rushed to the stage when he yelled, but there was someone who was one step faster than him.A sword like lightning came flying from the sky, intercepted Chu Songzheng's long sword swiftly and inexorably, and then twisted and pushed backhand, the tip of the sword pierced at the empty door at his waist very trickily, and immediately blocked his approaching force. blocked in mid-air.Chu Songzheng had no choice but to turn around in an extremely embarrassing posture to dodge, and rolled around on the stage before barely dodging that most weird and ingenious sword.

When Fan Yang saw the person coming, he immediately relaxed with a sigh of relief in his chest, and said pleasantly, "My lord!"

Wen Heng was covered in dust and dust, and his face was frighteningly stern. He hummed lightly while holding the sword, and immediately bowed to check Xue Qinglan's injuries.Xue Qinglan slapped Chu Songzheng head-on. Although he didn't hold his breath on the spot, his internal injuries were serious. His internal organs seemed to be crushed by a huge force, and he even found it difficult to breathe. In addition, he still had a hidden disease, his own true energy was exhausted, and his body was cold. Then he searched for a gap to enter, doubled his backlash, and within a short time of the palm, his body was already as cold as if he had been washed in cold water.As soon as Wen Heng helped him, he knew something was wrong, so he hurriedly pressed against the big acupoints on the back of his heart, and used his kung fu to help him sort out his internal breath and suppress the cold air in his body.

He suddenly appeared in front of these hundreds of heroes, forcing back the head of the Chu family's sword sect with one move. This kind of swordsmanship is already rare in the world, and with Fan Yang's straightforward words, everyone present had already vaguely guessed the identity of the incoming person. Qiqi couldn't help holding their breath, waiting to see the next development.

However, Wen Heng turned a blind eye to most of the people on the top of the mountain, and knelt on one knee on the edge of the stage intently, not even taking a moment out of the corner of his eye, and he had to wait for him to treat Xue Qinglan's injuries before talking about the big things.

Xue Qinglan received a slap suddenly, but she didn't completely faint, her mind was still three points clear, but she couldn't move her limbs, couldn't open her eyes and couldn't speak, like three souls and seven souls were drawn out and sealed in ice; later He didn't know who it was when he was lifted up. He didn't know who it was until he smelled a faint and familiar scent of green bamboo in the smoke and blood, and then a hot current poured in from his vest and traveled all over his body. Pulling back completely, he opened his eyes with difficulty.

"Brother Heng... why are you here?"

Xue Qinglan still doesn't know how miserable she is at the moment. When she saw Wen Heng at first glance, it was still like a dream. She missed her and couldn't help but worry: "Which bastard let you out..."

On the same day, he took Wen Hengmi back to Fengping Mountain Villa, used it as a bait to lure Li Zhi into the dungeon, and ordered his capable men to pretend to be Li Zhi and return to Chu's house to deliver news for him.Wen Heng was fed a grain of "You Xian San" by him, and he was drunk for seven days, and he should have just woken up today.

Before he left, he had ordered the subordinates staying at the villa that if he himself failed to return as scheduled, he could take Wen Heng out of the dungeon and send him back to Zhanchuan City after the Hengwushan Knife Trial Conference cleared Wen Heng's reputation Luming Escort Bureau.

Xue Qinglan arranged a comprehensive retreat for Wen Heng, and brought Li Zhi, who was disguised as Wen Heng, to the meeting alone. Until that palm, all developments were still in his plan.However, he only missed one point: when he was in Xingcheng that day, Wen Heng, who couldn't even be restrained by the secret medicine "Wanxiang Zheluosan", would be drunk for seven days and seven nights by "Youxiansan"?And once he wakes up, with only a dungeon and a few subordinates, who can stop him?

Wen Heng chased after Du Ruofeng day and night, listening to various rumors along the way, he had already figured out Xue Qinglan's intentions, but he was one step too late.He was so angry that he wished to tie Xue Qinglan up and give him a pump, but he was so distressed that he couldn't even say a serious word, so he raised his sleeve and slowly wiped away the blood on his lips, and said softly: "Wait for me, wait for me." I'll finish this matter and take you back to heal your wounds."

Xue Qinglan tried her best to grab his hand, and said angrily: "Brother Heng, don't go...It took me a long time to pick it off for you..."

Wen Heng hugged him into his arms by concealing his figure, and said in a warm voice: "Don't worry about me, it will be fine soon." After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and kissed Quan on the top of his hair as comfort, and carefully supported Xue Qinglan by the stage Rely on it, then stood up and said to Fan Yang: "Don't bother with the others, just watch him for me."

It was rare for Fan Yang to see him so angry, and he felt that the hairs on the back of his neck were about to stand on end, so he hurriedly tried to persuade him as he passed by, "My lord, it's important to save your life."

Wen Heng didn't answer his words, he stepped up to the middle of the high platform, faced Chu Songzheng, and said coldly: "Wen is late, I hope the head of Chu will not be blamed."

Under the order of the court, Chu Song was trying his best to create such a big show, so that Wen Heng would never have a chance to make a comeback, but he never expected that Li Zhi would turn against the water first, and then Xue Qinglan would disrupt the situation. On the contrary, Wen Heng came late.These three people seem to jump up in turn and slap his old face with a big ear scraper, smashing Chu Songzheng's spirit, not to mention Wen Heng's sword just now made him extremely embarrassed, it was a shame. At the bottom, the dignified head of the Chu family's sword faction is like a painted clown.

He tried his best to maintain his demeanor, squeezed out a half-sour smirk, and said: "Young Master Wen, Mr. Wen, you are really kind! Not only do the disciples of various sects receive your great kindness and virtue, but even the devil Zong Hufa is blinded by you, and he is willing to fight for you."

Wen Heng replied indifferently: "Your Excellency volunteered to be a ghost, and was mobilized to attack, why should you blame me?"

"Mr. Wen is young, but his scheming is so sophisticated, and he is very good at putting on a show," Chu Song stared at him sullenly, and asked loudly, "You rely on a little kindness to attract people's hearts and win the name of a hero, and become a pure Jun Didn’t the elders of the faction want to avenge the court in the future? You used to be a useless person who knew no martial arts at all. Why did your martial arts suddenly increase, and where did you learn this wonderful sword technique? Apart from the Beidou Huangu magic skill, there is no one in the world. Is there any skill that can make a useless person reborn overnight?"

Before Wen Heng could reply, he suddenly heard the sound of wind howling in mid-air.Chu Songzheng suddenly retreated to the right, only to hear a crisp "pop", leaving a shallow whip mark where he stood before.Holding the sword in his hand, he resolutely shouted: "Who is it!"

Nie Ying strode up to Wen Heng, took the golden whip back into his palm, and said loudly: "I have endured for a long time, and I want to come up and beat you a long time ago! Who is the old man yelling at every useless person? I'm afraid that others will not know you are a Trash!"

Wen Heng said in a low voice, "Thank you, Brother Nie."

"My brother, why do you need to say such nonsense?" Nie Ying patted him on the shoulder and said, "When this old man spread rumors just now, I was held back by Long Jing before I had time to do it. Now I can't stand up and say, I'm afraid From now on, even I will become what they call a wolf-hearted thing."

He turned to the crowd and said in a high voice: "Brother Wen and I were together with our boss, You Shan. After the sword discussion event, we were the two of us who tracked down the imperial guards and rescued the hostages trapped in the Xingcheng Prison. There are many people who saw it with their own eyes, and they can't live up to it. The old man of the Chu family insisted that Brother Wen had ulterior motives, so wouldn't I, Nie Ying, become his accomplice? Whoever wants to attack him, I will count as my share, and I will come under my hands first. Go through twenty tricks before speaking!"

Nie Yinggui is the young master of Huanyanmen, and people in the world call him "Golden Whip Fuxue", and his reputation is far louder than Wen Heng.Since he stated his position in this way, everyone present at that day also echoed, vowing that he would never listen to slander or revenge.

Wen Heng listened to these words, and knew that most of them were for Nie Ying's face, so he was not very moved. Instead, he said solemnly to Sifang: "Recently, there have been rumors in the world, mostly about my life experience. , and a non-existent magical secret book. The original meaning is self-clearing, needless to say, who would have thought that someone with a heart would use it to make a big fuss, trying to trap me in injustice, and even be accused by thousands of people, which is unacceptable in the world."

"My parents and family were all killed at the hands of the inner guard, and the grievances among them have not yet been cleared. I do have a blood feud with the inner guard, but this is a family matter, and it has nothing to do with others. Now that you can tell right from wrong today, If you don't listen to Chu Song's righteous words, you don't have to worry about being incited by me in the future, and being a sword in someone else's hands in vain."

His tone was not very passionate, and his words were not fancy, but his sentences were sincere and powerful, far better than a long speech. All the heroes in the audience were silent for a while, listening to him carefully.

Wen Heng's inner strength was profound, and although he didn't speak loudly, his voice was sent extremely far, echoing faintly in the valley: "As for the secret books of the magical arts, they are simply nonsense. I have never heard of, let alone practiced, any Beidou magical arts. Martial arts, one is that I entered Chunjun's sect seven years ago, first I got to be taught by my respected teacher, Elder Qin Ling, and then Gu Chuifang taught the elders to teach my skills; the other is that when I left the sect four years ago and traveled abroad, it was a coincidence Then I met a senior, and he taught me the inner strength and heart method, and I finally got through the meridians, and got a glimpse of the door to martial arts."

"The inner strength I learned is called "Ling Xiao Zhen Jing", which was passed down from Buxu Palace in Kunlun Mountains; as for the swordsmanship, I have devoted myself to comprehend it in the past four years, and created my own [-]-way sword moves, which you have never seen before. Yes, it's normal."

Someone couldn't hold back his excitement, and asked loudly: "Young Xia Wen, I have seen your sword skills at the Sword Discussion Conference. ? I would like to ask for advice on a few tricks, I wonder if your Excellency would like to teach you?"

His asking such a question is enough to show that everyone present chose to believe in Wen Heng's innocence, no matter whether it was from the heart or because of the situation, and no longer entangled in the Chu family's slander and frame.Wen Heng said in a low voice to Nie Ying, "Brother, back off", then looked back at Xue Qinglan, and replied to the man: "I don't dare to be praised by your Excellency, and today's situation is not a good opportunity to learn from each other, but we But I can do a few tricks and show you something new."

He pulled the long sword away, and said slowly: "I was trapped in a secluded valley. When I was extremely bored, I often entertained myself with sword dancing, and from this I figured out a set of sword skills. In the past few years, there was only one person , so that every time I think about it, I feel anxious, so I took his name and legally named this set of swords 'Qinglan'."

Wen Heng pointed his sword at Chu Songzheng amidst the sound of air-conditioning all over the mountain, and said sternly: "Master Chu, you hurt my beloved, and I will ask you for this debt now."
