A whistling wind blew past his ears, and the white mist cleared away. Fu Peibai looked at the unfamiliar forest in front of him, wondering in his heart, and was about to ask the second teacher where it was, when a deep man's voice sounded behind him.

"Fu Peibai."

Fu Peibai looked back in amazement, and saw that the Second Teacher had gone under a tree in the distance, and the person behind her was Xing Guang who hadn't seen him for a long time.

"Brother Xing, why are you here?"

Xing Guang looked solemn, and did not answer her question, but instead asked: "How much do you know about Shiqi's identity?"

"She was originally Miss Wenyangmen, but she was murdered by Lu Wencheng, her whole family was slaughtered, she was rescued by Shi Qinghan, joined Luoying Sect, and then went to Tianjizong to pretend to be the master of Chaoquan Peak, waiting for revenge."

Xing Guang frowned, with an indescribably weird expression, "Shi Qinghan told you this?"

"Yes."

Xing Guang suddenly grabbed Fu Peibai's wrist, and was about to say something, when the second envoy in the distance had already come this way.

He quickly said: "Don't believe it, don't believe everything Shi Qinghan said, Shi Qi, Shi Qi's identity is not that simple, I still have some things that I haven't found out, I will come to you again after I find out, promise I, protect her."

Fu Peibai was stunned for a while, "You...what do you mean?"

After the words fell, the Second Teaching Envoy had already walked over. He glanced at Xing Guang and said coolly, "Is it over? Hurry up and leave when you're done."

Xing Guang said in a deep voice: "Fu Peibai, remember what I said."

Fu Pei's throat slipped and he spat out the word "good".

Xing Guang glanced at her and then flew away from the woods.

The second envoy glanced at Fu Peibai, and said in a cold voice, "Don't look at me like that, don't worry, I don't care what you say, and I won't tell the leader, that kid saved me once a few years ago, I just repaid his kindness." , only this time, if he reappears next time, it will be swords facing each other."

Fu Peibai didn't say anything, his heart was in a mess.

What do you mean, Seventeen's identity is not that simple...

She thought everything was clear, but Xing Guang's words suddenly made everything confusing again.

After returning to the cave, she didn't know whether it was the coldness in the cave, or she felt cold in her heart. As soon as she entered, she couldn't help shivering, but soon she was embraced by someone, and the cold breath overflowed instantly. With the tip of her nose, her impetuous heart slowly calmed down.

She put a hand around Shiqi's waist and murmured, "Seventeen..."

Shi Qi hummed, and his eyes fell on her bloody shoulders.

"Are you hurt?" The tone was flat, without any emotion.

"Well, a little injury."

Shi Qi didn't say a word. Thinking about it, during the two years since Fu Peibai left Huailiu Village, he seemed to have been continuously injured, big and small, countless.

"Take off your clothes."

Fu Peibai was taken aback, "Huh?"

Shi Qi repeated indifferently: "Take off your clothes, and I will treat your wound."

Fu Peibai took a step back, "I, I'll do it myself."

Shi Qi was too lazy to talk nonsense with her, so he started directly.

Fu Peibai backed up again and again, his heels touched the stone bed, and his body lost weight instantly and fell backwards. Along the way, Shi Qi also rushed forward, and finally fell on top of her.

When the two fell down, Shi Qi's forehead hit Fu Peibai's chin, Fu Peibai couldn't help but hissed, looking at each other, she murmured softly, "It hurts."

Shi Qi stretched out his finger to rub her chin, and said angrily, "Now you know it hurts? Did you think about it when you were trying to be brave?"

Fu Peibai grabbed her hand and kissed her fingertips flatteringly, "It will never happen again."

Shi Qi withdrew his hand quickly, got up from her body, and went to get a change of clothes, gauze and plaster.

"Get up and take the medicine."

Fu Peibai scratched his head, suppressed the shame in his heart, got up straight, and sat up straight.

The corners of Shi Qi's lips raised slightly, and she slowly took off her outer robe, then her middle coat, and finally only a thin inner coat was left. Hold it.

Fu Peibai's voice became tense, his face flushed, "That's it, just take the medicine like this." His tone was quite pleading.

Her palm was scorching hot, until the back of Shi Qi's hand was pressed to the ground.

"A Pei." Seventeen chuckled lightly, thinking of teasing the other party, she leaned in front of Fu Peibai, and whispered softly: "You and I are both women, so why be shy?"

Fu Peibai pursed his lips, "I'm only shy with you."

Seventeen fingertips lightly brushed her chin, and looked up at her, "So if others want to take off your clothes, you won't be shy?"

Fu Peibai blurted out: "Of course not! How could I let others treat me like this." After finishing speaking, she saw the narrow smile on Shi Qi's face, and realized that she was teasing herself, so she softened her voice and said helplessly: "Seventeen. ... You understand, I will only do this to you. This is the first time I like someone so much. When I get along with you, I often feel at a loss. I don’t know how to treat you best. I want to get close to you, but always I'm shy, I..."

Shi Qi listened to her with a smile, and at the end, the smile on her face faded a little, and a little more serious, "A Pei, you don't have to think so much, just follow your own heart, you always treat me like that." I'm fine, I don't need to deliberately do anything, it's already great, as for being shy..." She paused for a while, and curled the corners of her lips, "There are some things, you won't be shy once you're proficient."

Fu Peibai swallowed, not daring to ask what some of the things in the seventeenth words referred to, he quickly looked at his nose, nose and heart, and said solemnly: "Okay, I understand."

Shi Qi was not going to tease her anymore, and carefully picked apart the blood-stained clothes on her shoulders with a dagger.

The moment the hideous wound appeared in her sight, she still couldn't help frowning, and carefully handled the wound with a wet kerchief.

This really wasn't the most serious injury Fu Peibai had ever suffered, but it was the one that made her feel the most painful.

Perhaps it was because she had her lover by her side, and the gentle and careful action of applying the medicine made her feel the feeling of being cherished by others.

"Hiss—" The alcohol stained the wound, and she couldn't help hissing.

The movement of Shi Qi's hands stopped immediately, and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"

After Fu Peibai circled the word "no pain" with the tip of her tongue, it fell back into her stomach. She looked sideways at Shiqi and opened her mouth.

"pain."

Shi Qi didn't say anything, but his subordinates moved more gently.

After treating the shoulder injury, Fu Peibai was putting on his robe when the voice of the second envoy came from the deep corridor: "The leader is back, let you go to see her together."

Fu Peibai looked at Shiqi, and the two looked at each other, their expressions became serious. After a while, they came to Shi Qinghan's basement.

"Master, they are here."

"Well, you go down."

After the second envoy retreated, Fu Peibai and Qiqiyi entered the basement one after the other.

Shi Qinghan was standing in front of the table with four pieces of yellow cloth on it. Her expression was full of excitement that could not be concealed. The map of ascending the mausoleum, which had disappeared for a hundred years, was about to reappear in the world.

Fu Peibai frowned and walked towards the table, followed by Shiqi, but she didn't look at the map of ascending the mausoleum on the table from the beginning to the end, but looked at Shi Qinghan.

Shi Qinghan's frenzied face had a few traces of strange paleness.

Seventeen asked, "Master, are you injured?"

Shi Qinghan was startled when he heard the words, and his face darkened, "It's nothing serious. I never thought that Lu Wencheng's skill has grown so amazingly. I accidentally got hurt a little by him."

After she finished speaking, she bent down and joined the four scattered fragments of climbing the mausoleum.

A map of mountains and rivers with a clear context appeared in front of the three of them. In an instant, the mountains, rivers and rivers in the picture seemed to come alive and changed rapidly. But after a while, the content presented by the map of climbing tombs on the table had changed into another picture. appearance.

The lines on the map are intricate and intertwined, like a structural map of a huge palace, and in the middle of the palace stands an attic with a height of dozens of floors.

Flying eaves and warped walls, carved beams and painted columns.

Ascending the mausoleum!

Shi Qinghan caressed the Dengling Tower in the middle of the picture above with his thin fingers, "Seventeen, come and see, where is this palace?"

Hearing the sound, Seventeen stepped forward, and his eyes fell on the picture, but there was only such a structural diagram of the palace in the picture, and there was no clear indication of the location of this huge palace.

She stared at it for a while, her eyes became deeper and deeper, "This is the imperial tomb of the former dynasty."

Shi Qinghan showed doubts, Seventeen pointed to the picture and said: "The east-west orientation of this palace, and the north-south orientation are reversed. It can only be an underground mausoleum. With such a huge scale of construction, only the royal family can build it, but the emperor of this dynasty The mausoleum system is not in this style, so it can only be seen that this can only be the abandoned imperial tomb of the previous dynasty."

"It's in Fengcheng Mountain, fifty miles outside of Kyoto."

After hearing this, Shi Qinghan smiled, "Unexpectedly, the emperor who died in the previous dynasty was so shrewd and hid the secret treasure in the mausoleum. It seems that he really expected that grandpa would not dig his ancestor's grave."

Shi Qinghan's words reminded Fu Peibai of one thing suddenly. She remembered that when she and Sima Tuo talked about the past in Southwest China, Sima Tuo mentioned that when Tai Zu came to the throne, the treasury was scarce and the country's financial resources were insufficient. The Shangzuo asked Tai Zu to dig up the imperial tombs of the previous dynasty and take out gold and silver treasures to fill the treasury. Tai Zu was furious when he heard this, and reprimanded the minister with Confucian etiquette and demoted him to the army to calm his anger.

Originally, this was just a trivial matter, but what really puzzled Sima Tuo was that he found that his grandfather frequently left late and returned early for a period of time, and was not in the general's mansion all night. , thought that his grandfather, who had always been loyal to the first generation, raised a concubine outside.

So he followed his grandfather one night, but in the end he found that Sima Jun was going to the imperial tomb of the former dynasty. As the night fell, besides Sima Jun, there was a large group of people, who were holding tools and utensils, as if they were a group of people. Team craftsmen.

Afterwards, he thought it must be due to etiquette that it was inconvenient to blatantly excavate the former imperial tomb, so he secretly sent his grandfather to start the matter, but for a whole month, his grandfather still disappeared all day.

If it was just digging the mausoleum simply by stealing, it would not have taken such a long time. He was suspicious again, so he followed Sima Jun to the imperial mausoleum of the former dynasty. At dawn, only his grandfather came out. After Sima Jun came out, the Dragon-Breaking Stone was lowered with a bang, the stone fell, and the mausoleum was closed.

He was startled and made a movement, which was noticed by Sima Jun. He had never seen his gentle and calm grandfather get so angry, and kept asking what did you see!He was stupefied at the time, saying that he didn't see anything, and Sima Jun didn't allow him to tell anyone about it, as if he had never been here before.

Less than half a year later, Sima Jun continued to follow Tai Zu on the Southern Expedition to the North, but not long after, Sima Jun took them and his family and fled to the southwest overnight on a thunderstorm night.

Sima Tuo intuited that his grandfather's rebellion against the Central Plains must have something to do with the matter of the imperial mausoleum of the previous dynasty. After he grew up, he also questioned his grandfather many times, but Sima Jun always kept a secretive expression, saying that he could be ruthless, I can't be unrighteous.

And this him must be Tai Zu. Now Tai Zu and his grandfather have passed away long ago, and the truth about the imperial mausoleum of the previous dynasty has also been buried in the ground forever with their death.

Fu Peibai still remembered that Sima Tuo said in a self-deprecating tone that if he could return to the Central Plains one day, he would definitely solve this mystery that had puzzled him for decades, but he didn't know what would happen to the Southwest after they left. up.

"Fu Peibai."

Shi Qinghan's voice brought Fu Peibai back to his senses, "Huh?"

"Seeing your thoughtful appearance, why, do you know something about this imperial tomb of the former dynasty?"

Fu Peibai pursed his lips, "No."

Shi Qinghan put away the map of climbing the mausoleum, and said: "It's not too late, let's start tomorrow, you two should rest early today."

Fu Peibai frowned, "You don't just need to stop Lu Wencheng from getting the map of the tomb, why are you looking for the tomb tower?"

Shi Qinghan smiled contemptuously, "Naturally, we want Lu Wencheng to see with his own eyes the splendor of the Secret Treasure of Climbing the Mausoleum that he has been longing for, and let him witness it in front of his face, which represents the secret treasure of supreme power. into the hands of his most hated enemy."

"Don't worry, my agreement with you still counts. All I want in my life is to make Lu Wencheng's life worse than death. These external objects cannot enter my eyes. The revenge will be avenged, and the secret treasure of ascending the mausoleum will naturally belong to you."

"But..." Fu Peibai wanted to say something else, but Shi Qi calmly tugged at the hem of her clothes, and Fu Peibai could only keep his mouth shut.

Afterwards, they left the basement. Along the way, Fu Peibai looked worried.

After returning to the cave, Fu Peibai couldn't help asking: "Seventeen, tell me, what exactly is Shi Qinghan's revenge plan?"

Shi Qi pulled her to sit down, stretched out his hand to caress her frowning brows, "It doesn't look good."

Fu Peibai's brows suddenly relaxed, and his expression softened, "If it's inconvenient to say, I won't ask, I won't make things difficult for you."

Seventeen withdrew his hand, and said lightly: "It's nothing inconvenient. Now that the leader has obtained the map of the mausoleum, he is only one step away from revenge. It doesn't hurt to tell you."

She raised her eyes, looked at Fu Peibai, and asked, "Do you still remember that we went to the northwest to supervise the construction of the Martial Arts Hall last year?"

Fu Peibai nodded.

"Actually, at that time, the leader used this opportunity to insert Luoying Sect's forces in Duwutang. Relying on Lu Wencheng's intelligence network across the country, Luoying Sect's eyeliner was also spread all over the world. In addition to stealing information from all parties, these eyeliners also have a The most important task is to spread the news that the Luoying Sect is looking for the Dengling Map, and that Lu Wencheng is also secretly searching for the Dengling Map."

"Actually, these are true in the first place. People who are interested can find out something by following the vines. Once the seeds of doubt are planted, there will be a day when the seeds of doubt are planted. What's more, after more than a year of precipitation, these news, plus Lu Wencheng's mobilization of forces to call on all parties to hunt and kill us has undoubtedly increased the authenticity of these gossips, and the main reason is that these famous families are suspicious of Lu Wencheng and want these decent alliances to gradually disintegrate from within."

Seventeen paused for a moment, curling his fingertips into his palms, "It should be in the next few days that the news of the death of the head of the Xufeng Sect will spread all over the world, and at the same time, there will be a blood book that exposes all of Lu Wencheng's crimes." When Lu Wencheng falls from the altar and is hated by the people of the world, the leader will release the news of the location of the climbing mausoleum to him, lure him to come, and then catch the turtle."

"Before that, we need to go to the place where the Dengling Tower is located to make early deployment."

Fu Peibai's expression became serious, and she was silent for a long time before she said: "Even if the plan is meticulous, it is difficult to keep a hundred secrets, how can Shi Qinghan conclude that just a fake death of the head of the Xufeng Sect will make these Jianghu families turn against Lu Wencheng?" What about facing each other?"

Seventeen sighed lightly and said, "Apei, don't underestimate the corruption of desire on people's hearts. Do you think their so-called decent alliance is strong? No, the reason why they can stand together is because they temporarily There is no conflict of interest, and once there is a conflict of interest, they will split themselves without us even needing to drive them apart."

"Once the map of Dengling appears in the world, will they still follow Lu Wencheng's lead? They will only raise their weapons against their own people. These disputes have been staged countless times in the past century, and this time will be no exception. The main thing to teach is not Lu Wencheng. Wencheng's downfall among these people, what she wants is for Lu Wencheng to be spurned by the world and left behind forever."

Fu Peibai's face was still confused, "Actually, I have never understood that Lu Wencheng has become the master of a sect until today, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the supreme martial artist. He has power and status, and he has worked hard to find it. Dengling, what else do you want?"

Seventeen stared into her eyes and said: "The human heart is a gully that can't be filled. Once it is satisfied, it will swell to greater desires. Can't you see that he is no longer satisfied with being the suzerain of a mere rivers and lakes sect?" He wants to be the master of the whole world."

Fu Peibai opened his mouth and closed it again.

There was deep tiredness and disgust on Seventeen's face, she rubbed her brows and said: "Sometimes I don't understand why people in this world are struggling to pursue power and status, fighting openly and secretly, plotting and scheming, and doing everything for it , it is like an abyss, luring and bewitching everyone to fall into it."

"Actually, I really don't want you to get involved, but at the same time, I understand the responsibilities and ideals you carry on your body. I can't ask you to stay away from these battles in the rivers and lakes. I can't be alone and let you face these difficulties alone. Danger, Ah Pei, I will accompany you."

Fu Peibai's eyes became hot when she heard that, she slowly hugged Shiqi, buried her head in the other's neck, and breathed rapidly, "Thank you, Shiqi, I promise you, one day, when the troubled times end and the world is peaceful, we will Live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, no longer care about all the troubles in the world."

Shi Qi closed his eyes and smiled slightly, "Okay."
