[Comprehensive martial arts] Wuji his brother

Zhang Wuzhang slept in the cave all night, got up early the next morning, and continued to walk deep along the weeds.

The stone cave where he rested yesterday is the burial place of Dugu Qiubai. Although Zhang Wuzhang intended to come here to worship, but the destination of his trip was not here.

After walking inward for about a mile, Zhang Wuzhang came to a cliff. He looked up all the way, and saw that in the middle of the cliff, about twenty feet above the ground, there was a raised platform with two large characters engraved on the edge—— 【Sword Tomb...

It can be seen that the handwriting and the writing on the stone wall in the cave were written by one person, but it is too high, and with Zhang Wuzhang's lightness skills at this time, it is still impossible to climb up.

Zhang Wuzhang didn't remember how Yang Guo, who had lost his arm, got up there, but he guessed that there was nothing left in the sword mound—the Ziwei soft sword had already been let Dugu seek the deep valley of defeat, and the black iron heavy sword had been taken by Yang Guo. After leaving, he gave Guo Jing and Huang Rong the recast Yitian Sword and Dragon Slaying Sword.

He didn't go up, and walked around the area a few times with the intention of visiting a scenic spot, and then showed a slightly ferocious smile.

Zhang Wuzhang made sure that there were different kinds of cockscomb snakes nearby, and went to Xiangyang City, where he spent a lot of money to hire two of the most famous snake kings, and followed them to search for cockscomb snakes nearby.

Not to mention, the snake gall of this cockscomb snake really has miraculous effects, he swallowed a snake gall yesterday, it is not the most effective swallowed raw, it is cooked and eaten, today he feels that he has inexhaustible energy.

It's just that he hasn't got a reliable inner strength method yet, and these snakes are precious species.

Zhang Wuzhang was not in a hurry to kill chickens to get eggs, he led two snake kings and could probably catch three snakes alive every day, if there were less in one place, he would go deep into the mountains to find a new gathering place for cockscomb snakes.

After more than half a month like this, they have already traveled a long way into the deep mountains, and there is not even a single human habitation nearby. From weeds to ravines, one cliff after another, one mountain top after another.

Zhang Wuzhang had already been tossing and tossing until he was ashamed, but fortunately Hou Junxian had followed him, and was responsible for sending the snakes he caught to a place specially circled by the Sky Eagle Sect to raise them and breed them, so the luggage was not very heavy. Heavy.

One day, Zhang Wuzhang was following a snake king to inspect a large area of ​​grass, but he heard another person shout: "My lord, come here and have a look, this place is so strange!"

In order to prevent poisonous snakes and beasts from violently injuring people, they were not scattered very far. Zhang Wuzhang stepped on his foot, twisted his body a few times, and reached the other end.

They were at the bottom of a cliff at this time, because the shadow of the cliff covered a large area of ​​land, and it was a place where snakes gathered together.

The snake king held up a long pole to tease the snake

Show him, Zhang Wuzhang saw that the front end of the pole had been cut off neatly, obviously it was cut off by a sharp weapon.

He has been following the snake kings for a long time, so he naturally knows that they will knock loudly in the distance, but they will stir gently when they are near the grass.

Apparently there was something in the grass, Zhang Wuzhang's heart moved, he took the snake teasing rod, and carefully picked the weeds from the edge of the grass.

Gradually, you can see the object in the grass, but it is a slender object lying on the ground, with vines wrapped around it, and it has been exposed to the wind and sun for an unknown period of time, making it dusty and unremarkable.

Zhang Wuzhang's eyes flickered, he couldn't help but look up at the cliff in front of him, the corners of his mouth curled up, he untied the water bag from his waist, and poured it over the object.

The dust was washed away a little, and a little purple was revealed. Zhang Wuzhang confirmed his earlier guess - Dugu Qiubai once wrote in the sword mound: "The Ziwei soft sword was used before the age of 30. It is ominous to accidentally injure a righteous man. Abandoned in the deep valley."

Who knows which corner Dugu Qiubai threw his sword into, it may not be near the sword mound, not to mention the age is really long, Zhang Wuzhang really did not expect to have such an unexpected joy, this is really a gift from heaven.

He touched the thicker end of the snake stick first, and saw that the snake stick hadn't been cut off. After confirming that it was the hilt, he picked it up with his hand, and went to the nearby stream to wash the sword clean.

Zhang Wuzhang carefully pinched the sides of the sword again, and cleaned the hilt clean, and saw two seal characters coiled on the hilt with gold wire, with the word "Ziwei" written on it.

Only then did he laugh, using his internal strength to shake the sword lightly, but seeing the purple air on the sword body, there was a buzzing sound, and the tip of the sword kept shaking.

Zhang Wuzhang slid towards the ground, he had never used a soft sword before, and he didn't know how to apply force, the body of the sword folded, and the tip of the sword slid along the ground, but still drew a deep line on the ground.

Zhang Wuzhang was overjoyed, went back to find the two snake kings, said with a smile: "I have some business to deal with at the moment, and I will assign someone to accompany the two snake catchers, it's time for me."

He was extremely generous, and these two Snake Kings were also carefully selected by his subordinates. They had received the favor of the Sky Eagle Sect, so they hurriedly said that they didn't dare.

Zhang Wuzhang waited until Hou Junxian came to meet him, left the two of them to be led by Hou Junxian, and left alone.

Back in Xiangyang City, he ordered people to step up and build an inconspicuous scabbard, which wrapped the sharp blade and tied it firmly around his waist.

It took another two days to make a suitable scabbard, and Zhang Wuzhang calculated that it was almost done, so he didn't delay any longer and went directly to Yuan Dadu.

Yuan Dadu is the Beijing city of later generations, Zhang Wuzhang came to the teahouse where Lu Xiaofeng agreed to meet and found an inn to stay.

There are still six days left before the full moon, Zhang Wuzhang has nothing to do, so he reserved a seat on the second floor of the teahouse.

This place is only one street away from Ruyang Prince's Mansion, and it is the most favorable terrain for observing Ruyang Prince's Mansion. He chose this place to observe the movements on the other side nearby.

Zhang Wuzhang sat in the teahouse every day, and felt something strange after a long time.It was nothing at first, but during the daytime three days ago, he saw two beautiful women wandering the street, and then threw themselves into an inn.

Of course he didn't recognize these two women, and there are many beautiful women in the world, so it's not surprising.

It was when they passed under the teahouse that Zhang Wuzhang could see at a glance that they were walking lightly and possessing martial arts. When he looked closely, he found that there were faint traces of disguise on their faces.

"..." Zhang Wuzhang put the teacup in his hand back on the table, changed his seat calmly, and observed the inn nearby. After a while, the two women came out, walking back and forth in two groups as if wandering nearby. Go and return in the evening.

This is obviously to step on the familiar terrain. It seems that the Ruyang Palace has been targeted by others.Changing his mind, Zhang Wuzhang patiently squatted on them for two days, only to see these two women leaving Yuan Dadu one after another.

This is the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, and the Tianying Sect has no apparent sub-rudder, so Zhang Wuzhang puts on a disguise and goes to a gambling house in the west of the city.

Everyone knew that this person in front of him was the best candidate for the future sect leader. Xin Feiyu was very respectful when he saw him, invited him into the inner hall, and said with a smile: "I don't know that sect master Zhang is here, it's a sin!"

"You don't need to be like this. I came here under the secret order of my grandfather, so naturally I dare not say anything." Zhang Wuzhang got straight to the point, "The situation is urgent, Master Xin Tuo is the elder of my teaching, so I will not be polite to you—when you dare to ask these questions Today, is there any change in the martial arts people in Dadu?"

Xin Feiyu hesitated and said: "The subordinates have not received any news. There are many officers and soldiers guarding this place. People from the Jianghu have never liked to come here."

Zhang Wuzhang asked again: "Did King Ruyang make any changes?"

Those two heroines clearly came for Ruyang Prince's Mansion. Although they were not ordained, they possessed not weak Buddhist mentality. He suspected that they were lay disciples of Emei Sect or Hengshan Sect.

Xin Feiyu thought for a while after hearing the words, and then said: "Prince Ruyang is still suppressing the rebellion in the Henan area, but there are frequent reports of success. In his palace, only the princess and his son and daughter are left. The children are still young, and there has been no movement."

"Successful news?" Zhang Wuzhang repeated the word, wondering, "This is strange, the generals of the Tartars are all cadavers, and the rebels have already beaten them to pieces. Unexpectedly, there is still a chance of success." The general who won the battle?"

Xin Feiyu hurriedly followed up with a smile and said: "That's right, only King Ruyang has some real skills. Because there are too few people like this, the court has rewarded King Ruyang a lot in the past few days."

Zhang Wuzhang looked up at him, and said, "People say that the Tartar Emperor looted all our Han people's property and slept on mountains of gold and silver every day. I don't know if it's true or not?"

Xin Feiyu is by no means a stupid person. He understood the implication in his words, and hurriedly said: "Although these words are exaggerated by Shengdou Xiaomin, they are not far away. This subordinate will ask someone to make a list of rewards and present them as rewards." Let's have a look with the hall master to see how many rare treasures this Tartar emperor has."

Since Zhang Wuzhang wanted to put on the posture of "Actually, I'm just curious", Xin Feiyu naturally wanted to say what he wanted.He answered only moderately to the two consecutive questions before, for fear of leaving an impression of incompetence in Zhang Wuzhang's heart, so although this matter is quite difficult, he still has to do his best.

Zhang Wuzhang got the list of rewards that day, and one of the items listed on it was "a sword with a handle named Yitian".

It turned out that the Yitian Sword belonged to the Emei sect. It was taken to Kunlun by Gu Hongzi, a senior brother of Jue Shitai, more than ten years ago. He competed with Yang Xiao, the bright left envoy of Mingjiao, but Yang Xiao was so angry that he vomited blood and died. Yang Xiao didn't care about the sword and left immediately. up.The sword fell into the hands of the local government and presented it to the Emperor Yuan. It was dusted in the treasury for more than ten years. A few days ago, the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty bestowed it on King Ruyang, a hero in countering the rebellion.

Everyone knows the reputation of the Dragon Slaying Saber, but the Yitian Sword is still not well-known at this time. In the eyes of the emperor, it is nothing more than a sharp sword, and it is just right to use it to reward meritorious officials.

Zhang Wuzhang immediately asked Xin Feiyu to send someone to watch out for a few city gates to see who was coming in and out recently, and he still went to the teahouse to drink tea, waiting for Sikong Zhaixing to arrive.
