In order to return to the familiar division, Xu Chi ran all night, wearing stars and moons, even so it took three days and three nights to reach the foot of the mountain.

The day was sunny and it was the third day of the Lunar New Year. Xu Zhi drove his horse, which was as exhausted as himself, to the place where the horse-drawn carriages and bearers gathered in the past, but he was surprised that the surroundings were deserted and quiet. It is said that the New Year's Day in previous years would be less People, but more than that. No one at all.

Could it be that Duan Wuliang and the others have caught up faster than him?

Xu Chi raised his heart, and looked around vigilantly, but after thinking about it for a while, he felt that something was wrong. Duan Wuliang hadn't solved it for ten years, and he was fed two kinds of anti-aging herbs, flame flower and ice vine, even if he didn't die. It may be faster than myself, not to mention that I deliberately took a shortcut and never stopped, so the anomaly here cannot be due to Duan Wuliang's manipulation.

So what happened to Bagua Mountain?

Looking up at the mountain road through the withered vegetation, Xu Chi's heart fluttered, don't tell him that what awaits him will be an unbearable scene.

He shook the reins and slowly stepped up the mountain road.

After half a year's absence, the scenery in the mountains has not changed, but the grass and trees are all withered when we go, and it is not the same as before. Xu Chi has to lament the changes of just a few months.

He went out with his younger brother, but he was the only one who came back.

Walking halfway up the mountain, Xu Chi suddenly saw a master disciple standing guard not far ahead?The disciple also found Xu Chi, and his eyes widened as if he had seen some incredible person. When Xu Chi came to him, he suddenly realized: "Master!!!"

Xu Chi was startled and stupefied: "What are you doing here?"

The disciple looked at Xu Zhi with uncontrollable admiration, just like the younger brother seeing the legendary elder brother: "Back to Master, the master said that you may come back in a few days, and ordered us to guard at various checkpoints on the mountain to welcome you." You! Welcome Master Uncle back to the mountain!"

Xu Chi got off his horse and frowned tightly: "Who is your master? Zheng En or Yuan Chen?"

"Uncle Yuan, my master is Yang Zhengen!" The disciple seemed to puff up his chest proudly, "Uncle Yuanchen hasn't gone out for a long time, so none of the disciples of my uncle have gone out either."

Now Xu Chi really felt that something was wrong. It seemed a little wrong for head Lu to tell Zheng En face to face that day, and now Zheng En knew in advance that he would return to the mountain.Could it be that Zheng En is the one who has truly inherited the technique of the Eight Diagrams Door God Stick?

Xu Zhi thought for a while, then said: "Don't make any noise, just take me to see Yuan Chen."

The disciple was dumbfounded: "Master uncle, why don't you go see my master first?"

Xu Chi glanced at him, there had never been such a clear distinction in Baguamen half a year ago, what about your master and his master: "I'll go see your uncle first."

In an instant, the hostility from Xu Zhi's body radiated out, which frightened the little disciple, and he quickly nodded to lead the way.

Xu Chi thought about a lot of accidents that might happen in the master's school, but he never thought that they would go bad in the nest. Looking at the innocent and jumping disciples in front of him, he hoped that all this was just because he was under some pressure now. Due to the psychological shadow and misunderstanding after the persecution, nothing irreversible happened to his teacher's school, and his teachers and brothers loved each other just as they did before he left the mountain.

Until he walked to the front of Tang Yuanchen's courtyard and saw a row of disciples holding knives standing guard, he clearly felt that something was broken in his heart.

How come those innocent and cheerful faces half a year ago have been treated so bitterly and deeply?Xu Chi laughed a few times, and was once again worshiped by a group of younger brothers: "Hello, Master!"

"Okay, very good," Xu Chi nodded, with a grin on his face, "Whose apprentices are you?"

"Back to Master Uncle, we are the apprentices of Master Zhengen!" Xu Chi's smile deepened as he drew together in a magnificent manner. , Let your master come here to see me, immediately!"

The little disciple was startled and shuddered by Xu Zhi's sudden momentum, nodded cautiously and said: "Of course, Master."

Xu Chi thought it was funny, where the hell did he learn these messy rules, but it only took half a year to make the teacher's school into a mess, it's really ridiculous!

"Eldest senior brother?" An uncertain shout sounded in his ears, Xu Chi's face was full of ferocity, and before he could put it away, he saw Tang Yuanchen, whose cheeks had lost a lot of weight, standing in front of the house with a water bottle in his hands, his big eyes full of disbelief.

Xu Zhi smiled stiffly: "Fool, where do you go to water the flowers in winter?"

Tang Yuanchen was stunned for a while, then threw the kettle away and rushed into Xu Chi's arms crying, crying wantonly: "I said why did you die...Elder brother, you are finally back..."

Xu Chi touched the back of Yuan Chen's head, feeling pain in his heart, he was so stupid, he was still his junior brother: "Yuan Chen, what happened in the past six months?"

Tang Yuanchen's body froze, and the young man's body became much thinner after being taller. He withdrew from Xu Chi's arms, looked outside the courtyard vigilantly, and said in a low voice, "Eldest senior brother, come into the room."

Xu Chi frowned. Sure enough, they were doing their own thing to guard against each other?

"Eldest senior brother, I think the identity of the second senior brother... something is wrong." Tang Yuanchen served Xu Chi a cup of tea, sat down a little uneasy, with a gloomy face that didn't match his age, and rubbed his hands back and forth nervously.

Xu Chi's heart moved, and he asked calmly: "What's wrong?"

"After you and the third senior brother went down the mountain half a year ago, someone came to look for the second senior brother. At that time, they didn't find anything, but then those people went up the mountain more and more, and the second senior brother seemed to be more and more shaken. Now his disciples It's not just learning the martial arts taught by the master, there are many of them that I have never seen before, and the moves are very vicious." Tang Yuanchen said in a low voice.

Xu Chi felt a headache when he heard it, which reminded him of some bad things.

"By the way, senior brother, where's the third senior brother?" Tang Yuanchen couldn't help asking curiously seeing that Xu Chi hadn't mentioned Shen Lu for so long.

Xu Chi's eyes darkened: "Alu... Chased him out because of the white peacock, and his whereabouts are still unknown."

Cigarettes were lingering in the room, and there was a long silence after these words, Tang Yuanchen raised his teacup tremblingly: "Then... Elder Brother, have you heard about Young Master Tang?"

Xu Chi was silent again. Seeing Xu Chi's attitude, Tang Yuanchen knew the result. He has always buried this family affection in the deepest part of his heart, and he doesn't have much affection for Tang Sect. But this cousin who has been by his side since childhood, said no It's false to attach importance to it, but this person has a family mission, and he never returns. He pretends to be stupid and cute on the mountain, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't know anything in his heart.

"Yuanchen... Eldest brother will continue to look for him." Xu Chi said tremblingly, holding his wrist, how can he not know where Tang Yuanteng is, but whether he can come back, how can he come back, how can he be sure?

Tang Yuanchen smiled wryly, his big eyes full of tolerance: "Senior brother, Yuanchen doesn't make too many demands. In fact, I already have a general idea of ​​the facts. Now that the third senior brother is also missing, we will stay on the mountain and pass us. The day will be good, second senior brother will have you..."

"No," Xu Chi shook his head with a hoarse voice, "I will ask Zheng En about his condition, but we can't stay on the mountain any longer. Tonight at the latest, we will all quit Bagua Mountain."

Tang Yuanchen was dumbfounded: "Why?"

"The Peacock Cult will attack the mountain in a few days. We have to retreat the whole courtyard before that, and we can't let anyone know." Xu Chi took a deep breath, and then smiled wryly in the blink of an eye. It should be such a hasty decision."

He was also thinking about whether he should make it clear to Yuan Chen that he had completely formed a relationship with the Peacock Cult, not to mention that Duan Wuliang had taken away the Tang Sect's relic fragments, and he even drugged Duan Wuliang.

"Eldest brother, what do you want me to say when I come back?" The former Er Fatty had completely disappeared, and the young man with a straight waist and a calm smile came into the room with a trace of strange gentleness.

Xu Chi seemed to see the shadow of another person from him in a blink of an eye, and instantly felt a sea of ​​energy, and his internal energy surged and tangled, causing unbearable pain.

"Elder brother!" Tang Yuanchen panicked and supported Xu Chi who was vomiting blood, looked at Er Fatty who was also surprised and shouted in astonishment: "What are you doing!"

Yang Zhengen was very baffled, but it is an indisputable fact that senior brother vomited blood when he saw him, so he had to help Xu Chi together and whispered: "I just said hello..."

Tang Yuanchen happened to be full of anger and had nothing to do, so he cursed unscrupulously: "You are so ugly, you are so ugly!"

Yang Zhengen: "..."

There was a lot of movement in the room, and the disciples with knives outside became restless and wanted to look inside. Xu Zhi struggled a few times, then waved his arms and shouted: "Get out!"

Yang Zhengen was stunned for a moment, and the arm that was swung away was awkwardly frozen in mid-air. Xu Chi turned around slowly, with blood still overflowing from the corner of his mouth, and said, "Come on, let your people go out first, senior brother has something to say to you alone."

The phrase "your people" has piled up all the contradictions in one place. Yang Zhengen is now taller than Xu Chi, and he can't recall the baby fat in the past. He must have glanced at his senior brother, smiled suddenly, and turned his head. Said: "Go and guard outside the courtyard."

"No," Xu Chi interrupted, "Let me go to the foot of the mountain to guard them all. If you find the Demon Sect troops, fight them if you can, and run if you can't. Remember to come up and report to us."

Yang Zhengen's face turned serious, and he looked at Xu Chi with a slightly complicated expression.

Xu Chi also responded with his expression: "Your appearance today reminds me of someone."

Tang Yuanchen couldn't understand what the two senior brothers were talking about at all, so he couldn't help but interjected, "Who?"

Xu Chi looked at Yang Zhengen, who deliberately raised the corner of his mouth, and slowly expressed the thought that had always been in his heart...

"The former envoy of Que Ling of the Demon Cult, Yang Yanyu."
