"There is one more thing." Xue Qinglan thought about what he said under the agitation of his mind the night before, and it was quite difficult to face, so he didn't respond to Wen Heng's words, and deliberately diverted from other topics, "It is the relationship between the Chu family's sword sect and the Chui Xing sect." The agreement between—"

Wen Heng stopped him, and said: "Don't think about these things for now, so as not to bother your heart and mind, let's talk about it after you recover your body."

Xue Qinglan is a descendant of a master, with great medical skills, how can he not be aware of his current physical condition?I'm afraid that if I don't say it now, I won't have a chance to say it in the future.But he didn't want to say these truths that only made Wen Heng sad, so he cheered up and said: "It doesn't matter, I have slept for a long time, and I want to talk to you."

Wen Heng sighed, raised his legs to get on the bed, leaned against the head of the bed as a pad, and hugged Xue Qinglan up to make him lie more comfortably.Xue Qinglan leaned on his chest, and said slowly: "After I captured you to Fengping Villa, I deliberately tricked Li into the dungeon to visit you, and asked my subordinates to pretend to be him and return to Chu's house. Lots of useful news."

"Not long ago, Chu Songzheng sent a letter to Fang Wujiu, proposing that if Chui Xingzong would help catch you, he would tell Fang Wujiu the secret behind the Xiji Lake Underground Palace and the ancient sword. This secret is actually a It's very simple, as we have known for a long time, there are two other swords in this world that are the same as the Fengyue Sword, one is the Chunjun Sword of the Chunjun Sect, the other is the ancient sword we saw in the palace last time, and the other is the Fengyue Sword. The sword corresponds to an underground palace, and there are many martial arts secrets in the underground palace, and the words on it are from the same source as the sword inscription."

Xue Qinglan was in poor spirits, and his voice gradually weakened after he couldn't say a few words. He rested on Wen Heng's shoulder for a while, tilted his head and coughed twice, took a breath, and continued, "Brother Heng, there is an underground palace in Yueying Mountain. There is an underground palace in Xiji Lake, so why do you think the Chu Family Sword Sect knows about the underground palace?"

Wen Heng's thoughts turned, and he immediately understood: "You mean, there may be an underground palace hidden in Siyou Mountain?"

"That's right," Xue Qinglan said, "The ancient sword named 'Xuan Yuan' in the palace was dedicated to the emperor by the Chu Family Sword Sect, exactly seven years ago."

Seven years is a very sensitive date for Wen Heng, so when Xue Qinglan mentioned it, a certain nerve in his mind immediately trembled: "Is this matter related to my family's case?"

"Based on the identity of 'Li Zhi', the information that can be found is really limited. I dare not say for sure." Xue Qinglan said, "But brother Heng, do you still remember that night in the palace, the inner guard said that your father was hugging you?" Cuizhai was killed by someone with the 'Xuan Yuan Sword' - how could such a coincidence happen in the world? There must be a connection we don't know about."

Wen Heng's arms around his shoulders tightened unconsciously. Xue Qinglan felt the pain, but did not say anything, and continued nonchalantly: "Besides these, there is another unexpected harvest. The succession ceremony of the Yujie elders of the Chunjun School four years ago Actually, the treasure of their town faction—the fake sword—was actually stolen by the Chu family in the end.”

"The Chu family's sword sect?" Wen Heng was taken aback for a moment, "But the people who fought against me in the forbidden area of ​​the back mountain that night clearly used the Chui Xing sect's martial arts skills, and they found me in the hidden sword pavilion the next day. His shattered scabbard."

Previously they knew from Gu Chuifang that the real sword had been stolen, so they didn't bother to think about the fake sword. At this moment, they suddenly found out the truth of the old thing. The two of them seemed to be holding a mess, and they clearly found a thread, but they didn't know it. Where should I start.Xue Qinglan guessed: "Could it be that two groups of people shot at the same time, and one of them took the lead?"

Wen Heng pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Who among the Hanging Star Sect knows about the underground palace?"

Xue Qinglan: "This matter is confidential, except for the suzerain and his trusted guardians, no one else knows about it."

"That's weird," Wen Heng said, "the Chu family's sword faction had already taken refuge in the imperial court at that time, and the pure Jun sword was already in the palace, so why did they go to such lengths to steal a fake sword? Yueyingshandi Palace has not only the imperial court, Except for the Chu family and Senior Gu, even the head of our sect doesn’t know about it, how did the people of Chui Xingzong know about it?”

"Maybe I heard that there is an ancient sword in the Chunjun sect, so I guess it is the key to another underground palace like the Fengyue sword." Xue Qinglan changed the subject, "But don't think too much about it. Coincidentally, as far as I know, the suzerain has never had the idea of ​​Chunjun sword before, and he has never asked his trusted guardians to pay special attention to this kind of thing. Maybe that person just wants to steal the treasure of the town faction and slap the Chunjun faction in the face Woolen cloth?"

Wen Heng pondered and said: "It makes sense. But if you put it this way, since that person is not a member of the upper class of the Hanging Star Sect, the possibility of him intruding from the outside is ruled out; He is a close friend of the elders of each peak, that is to say, among these "decent people", there is one person who concealed his background and martial arts inheritance. And that night he entered the forbidden area of ​​​​Linqiu Peak from the mountain trail behind Yuquan Peak, which means He is very familiar with the terrain of Yueying Mountain, especially Yuquan Peak; considering the distance between the peaks, it is very likely that he lived on Yuquan Peak that night. Have you revealed his family background?"

Xue Qinglan's heart beat violently twice, his mind was flustered, and he immediately pulled his internal injury, bowed down and coughed violently.Wen Heng hurriedly helped him to sit up comfortably, stroked his back and sighed: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, there is stewed chicken soup under the kitchen, I will bring a bowl, drink it and sleep for a while, OK?"

Xue Qinglan's eyes turned black, and there was a lot of noise in his ears. He couldn't quite hear what he said, so he nodded indiscriminately.Wen Heng got up from the bed, carefully helped him lie down to rest, carefully tucked in the corners of the quilt, and then turned to go out.Not long after, he brought back a cup of hot astragalus chicken soup from downstairs, and coaxed Xue Qinglan to drink half a bowl.However, Xue Qinglan was suffering from chest pain even when he was panting, and after a few sips, he pushed his wrist and said, "That's enough, brother Heng, you haven't eaten and rested yet, so stop caring about me."

Wen Heng put the soup bowl away, turned around and said, "Who else can I take care of if I don't care about you? When you recover from your illness, you can take care of me however you want. For now, focus on your own injuries, worry less and worry more. Rest, okay?"

Xue Qinglan thought to himself: "If there is a future, of course it would be great, but if not, I may only have the opportunity to talk to you in these three or five days." In addition to being regretful, I felt fortunate, so I answered "yes" with a slight smile, and said: "You were brought out of Zhanchuan City in a hurry by me. You must not have enough money with you. I still have a few pieces of silver in my arms." Ticket, you take it to the emergency."

"Understood." Wen Heng raised his hand to cover his eyes, and said softly, "Stop talking, just sleep for a while, I'll stay here with you."

Xue Qinglan was mentally exhausted, and at this moment she had reached her limit, so she closed her eyes as she said, and fell asleep holding Wen Heng's hand.

Seeing him falling asleep, Wen Heng frowned slightly because of the pain in his dream, but his complexion was better today than last night, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief. information.

Previously, he only focused on Chunjun Sword and Yueying Mountain Underground Palace. At most, he thought that Chunjun Sword had something to do with Kunlun Buxu Palace, but he never considered the connection between Chunjun Sword, Fengyue Sword and Xuanyuan Sword.Wen Heng always felt that there was a vague thought in his mind, which made him have a premonition of frightening for no reason. Just now, he just mentioned Xue Ci, which scared Xue Qinglan like that, so he didn't have time to go deeper. Thinking about it, and thinking about it carefully now, the many messy threads are strangely connected end to end, gradually outlining an outline of the past.

The shapes of Chunjun, Fengyue, and Xuanyuan are roughly the same, and the inscriptions are consistent with the handwriting on the Wujin Token of Buxu Palace, so the origin and use of these three swords, Feng Baoyi, who was born in Buxu Palace, may have long been He knew, and after he defected to Buxu Palace, he joined the inner guard and brought this secret into the palace.Assuming that Nie Zhu stole the sword 30 years ago was ordered by the imperial court, and Feng Baoyi's goal was to collect these three swords, judging from Yongcuizhai's collection, it seems that this matter did not go smoothly. After 20 years, the imperial court finally obtained the Xuanyuan Sword presented by the Chu family. As for the Fengyue Sword, it has remained in the Chuxingzong and has not yet been obtained.

But what is puzzling is that the Chu family surrendered to the imperial court by presenting their swords seven years ago, so why did they bother to steal the fake sword again three years later when they knew that the Chunjun sword was in the palace?

Wen Heng just sat still, but his heart beat faster and faster for no reason.He was like a craftsman unraveling the stone skin layer by layer. While sweating, he knew that he had finally touched the core that frightened him the most.

If Feng Baoyi was behind all of this, and the stealing of the sword by the Chu family was also at his behest, then the reason why he made this judgment is probably because he suspected that the Chunjun sword he had already obtained was a fake, so he wanted to take the Chunjun sword. Send the treasure of Zhenpai that has always been claimed to be unlost to verify the authenticity-but the Chunjun sword has been stolen by Nie Zhu for more than 20 years, why didn't Feng Baoyi find it before, but suddenly discovered it [-] years later?Who reminded him?

No need for Wen Heng to think about it, the answer has naturally appeared in his mind——

Seven years ago, Feng Baoyi probably already had a "Xuanyuan Sword" in his hand.

Since Chunjun Sword is real, he firmly believes that "Xuanyuan Sword" is also real.But when the Chu Family Sword Sect took out the real Xuanyuan Sword, Feng Baoyi realized that he had been deceived by someone all along.

This date is most likely no coincidence.

Seven years ago, when the matter of true and false swords was exposed, the person who was the first to be held accountable must be the one who fabricated the lies; also seven years ago, his father, the younger brother of the current emperor, King Qing Wen Kezhen, because of "deceitful king "Go up" and was killed by Feng Baoyi in Yongcuizhai with Xuanyuan sword.

Perhaps there were several people who went looking for these three swords separately back then, so among the swords they found, Chunjun was real and Xuanyuan was fake; What Nie Zhu owed to the Chunjun faction back then must be repaid by his only flesh and blood.
