Cultivate with an African God

Chapter 73 Jade Spring Valley (3)

The person who spoke came with extraordinary momentum.

Behind him was a strange-looking blue-skinned monster holding a kite, a child with pointed horns and a blue flame hanging from his back, and a giant one-eyed frog, on which sat a small creature with a head on its head. girl with rabbit ears.

It was Mu Xinghe.

Those three grotesque shikigami made him look menacing with leaves on his head and wet clothes. He didn't come long before he saw the scene of his brothers fighting. Although Zhong Zijin likes to compete with swords, It wouldn't be like this sword competition, and it wouldn't be a sword competition at this time. He guessed the cause and effect almost instantly. When he spoke, he raised his hand, and the seal was formed.

The pentagram appeared at Xia Shengyi's feet with runes, and then the chains rose from the ground. The chains were not tightly bound, but a small barrier had formed around Xia Shengyi, making it difficult for him to break.

That's Seimei's skill Word Spirit Bind.

Knowing this move, Zhong Zijin heaved a sigh of relief, retracted his sword slightly, looked at Mu Xinghe, opened his mouth, but only said a word of apology for a long time.

After Mu Xinghe came out, he walked straight towards him, heard Zhong Zijin's words, nodded and said: "Yes, you almost killed me, you have to apologize, and you will be fined less." Have a drink."

Zhong Zijin's complexion suddenly turned pale when he heard the words, and said, "I will never—"

"It's because of me," Xia Shengyi suddenly interrupted their conversation. He looked at Zhong Zijin, "Kill me now. Wasn't it very decisive to fight me just now?"

Zhong Zijin stared at the senior brother in front of him with a solemn expression: "I have to fight you for—"

However, Xia Shengyi interrupted him again, and said coldly: "Do it! Kill me, go find Fen Tiangong, and kill them one by one with your friends!"

Zhong Zijin could hear the desire for death in the other party's voice, this was his senior brother, the senior brother who had spent countless days and nights with him in Yingzhou Sword Sect, compared sword skills, sang songs and shouted together, also betrayed Yingzhou Sect , To take his life and implicate his friend's brother, he looked at the familiar face of that person, speechless for a long time.

Xia Shengyi was also looking at him, his eyes gradually softened, Yan Ling Bin didn't know when he was broken, but he didn't continue to attack Zhong Zijin, he sighed softly, stretched out his hand to stroke Zhong Zijin's head messed up his long hair, which was already a little messy due to trekking, and his expression and movements were just like the one he met by chance in Jianliji.His voice was accompanied by a sigh, and came faintly: "Don't be indecisive, how can you take care of the future of Yingzhou Sword Sect?"

Zhong Zijin suddenly stared at him with wide eyes, as if he heard something ominous, he was both confused and shocked: "Why should I be responsible for the future of Yingzhou Sword Sect? Isn't there a senior brother here?"

"Brother? You mean Wen Xingze?" Xia Shengyi laughed suddenly, his tone was gentle, compassionate, and somewhat sentimental. He said in such a tone, "He will leave sooner or later. of."

The blood on Zhong Zijin's face faded in an instant, Mu Xinghe looked at his reaction, a little unexpected, Zhong Zijin had experienced a lot before and after entering the valley, Mu Xinghe could understand that although this person showed his emotions, he was always calm at critical moments Put your mind to it, but among so many things, this is the first time Mu Xinghe sees him as pale as he is now and feels uneasy!

Zhong Zijin fell into a daze for a moment because of Xia Shengyi's words, but after all he let out a breath, he raised his head to look at Xia Shengyi again, the dust in his eyes fell, and he regained his tranquility: "I can't kill you—yes, Sometimes it may be more difficult to live than to die, but if you die, many things will be hard to change. I will take you back to Yingzhou, what you do will be ordered by the sect, I will not decide for you!"

Xia Shengyi didn't answer him, his epee ignited black flames again, the flames were so intense that Zhong Zijin subconsciously took a step back, but realized that he shouldn't be backing at all - that power was too strong, he had to struggle everything If it is hindered, it is impossible to use such a powerful force with the will to die.Xia Shengyi actually chose to commit suicide because he saw that Zhong Zijin couldn't kill him quickly!

"—I don't want to go back to Yingzhou as a sinner."

It seemed to be the bloody roar of a wild animal before its death.

But a wind was faster than his blade, and the wind tore through the flames and slashed at his throat.

"Sorry, offended."

The Wind Chopping Jue suddenly dissipated into the air, and Xia Shengyi also disappeared in front of them abruptly along with the Wind Chopping Jue.

Mu Xinghe looked at the mountain forest that suddenly became empty and silent in front of him, and sighed: "Death is not a way to avoid problems." In fact, no matter whether it is reasonable or not, a loss is a loss. No matter how unbearable the result is, it must be borne preparation.

Zhong Zijin watched Xia Shengyi disappear in front of them like this, and said in astonishment: "What's going on? It's the third time."

Mu Xinghe turned his head to look at his friend. He and Zhong Zijin hadn't seen each other for a day. He only felt that Zhong Zijin had changed a little, and his nerves were tense like a little beast ready to fight at any time. He didn't express any anger or doubt about the situation. He patted Zhong Zijin on the shoulder and signaled him to relax: "He probably didn't die, and he's been kept in a place now. Of course, I'm not sure. Just guessing."

"Okay, where is he?" Zhong Zijin still believed in Mu Xinghe unconditionally after all. Mu Xinghe said so vaguely, but he still accepted it. He took a deep breath and said, "Mu Xinghe, you first Let's go, your pulse has been condensed, there is still time to go out now..."

In fact, Zhong Zijin seldom calls Mu Xinghe by his name directly. He usually comes from "you" to "you". But it was very serious.

But Mu Xinghe didn't accept this seriousness, and shook his head crazily: "No, no, no, no...then you, a fool, plan to find someone alone? Without me, you will definitely not find it. Tell you, such a difficult thing in the world I guess only I can do it well.”

Looking at Zhong Zijin's expression, Mu Xinghe realized that this kind of bragging could not convince Zhong Zijin, so he put away his casual expression, and looked at Zhong Zijin with a smile: "Really, you want to get rid of the people in Burning Heaven Palace and take your senior brother away , I have to leave Yuquan Valley, time is tight, these things are actually complicated, you may not be able to do what you want, and of course I may not be able to figure it out, it may all be messed up. But I am your friend, if you want to tell me everything, Leave it to me, even if it's an adventure, I will definitely do it with you."

Mu Xinghe rarely has such an expression on his face. He is used to understatement, used to being indifferent, and shows that he doesn't care much about everything, which makes him very comfortable.It's just that his current expression clearly shows that he cares a lot, and he is the only one who can do well.

It even looks like a little request - I give you the right to choose, but I hope you don't refuse me.

"I owe you a favor." Zhong Zijin looked directly at Mu Xinghe, with a particularly bright fire in his eyes, "In the future, all I need is a word from you!"

Mu Xinghe smiled - he was glad that Zhong Zijin didn't drag his mother-in-law with him, he shook his head, put his arm around Zhong Zijin's shoulder and said, "No need, if you want to kill, kill together, if you want to die together, why are you polite?"

Mu Xinghe looked at the imprints on the ground all the way, and searched in an unknown direction all the way.He threw himself and Zhong Zijin a little Qingfeng formula, and Tianxie Guiqing sang for them to speed up, and the two of them were almost moving forward at full speed.

The two walked forward all the way, exchanging what they had encountered during this time.

Zhong Zijin disappeared because he heard a strange noise that night, and he instinctively became vigilant—at that time, because Mu Xinghe was still resting, even if he found something strange, he just stayed on the sidelines and never left.

But then he saw Xia Shengyi.This is not the first time he saw Xia Shengyi in Yuquan Valley, he saw him on the first night when he entered the valley. That night Xia Shengyi drew his sword to him without saying a word, his expression was so cold Like a puppet, it made him feel a little scared.He lost that night, and Xia Shengyi held his sword against his throat—just like what he did today, Xia Shengyi finally withdrew his sword, leaving behind his first and last sentence that day Saying: "Don't tell me to see you again, or it will be your death."

Zhong Zijin went back confused and dazed. He was very sensitive to swordsmanship. Xia Shengyi's change in swordsmanship this time made him vaguely aware of a terrible possibility, but because it was just a guess and it was a matter of the sect, After all, he didn't share it with his companions, and only kept it in his heart for consideration.

And on the night when he knew what Huaimengcao was, he saw Xia Shengyi again. The Fentian Palace clothes worn by the companion next to him confirmed his guess. Xia Shengyi also found him, and his companion went first. After leaving, Xia Shengyi stared at him for a moment before leaving.

Zhong Zijin was anxious, so he chased after him, wanting to ask for clarification. After chasing for a while, worrying about accidents, he carved two signs with his sword—because of the rush of time and the pursuit of Xia Shengyi, he didn't have time to write. , only marked a direction, he believed that Mu Xinghe could understand it. (Mu Xinghe: You have time to draw a sword before you can write? Be convinced.)

In short, after chasing for a day and a night, he finally caught up with Xia Shengyi and stopped him. Later, the two had an argument and finally fought.

After hearing what Zhong Zijin said, Mu Xinghe felt a little strange: "Why did they chase you here?"

"The first one should come to hunt us down. The one we killed earlier was the disciple of the strong man from the Burning Heaven Palace. The people from the Burning Heaven Palace came to make trouble. I expected it, but they chose Yuquan Valley... They guessed it was also annoying. So I plan to end it in Yuquan Valley. We died in Yuquan Valley and no one will know about it. Afterwards, with Xia Shengyi as the internal response, it will not be a problem to deal with the Yingzhou Sword Sect." Zhong Zijin thought for a while, and he really thought about it during this time Many, so it was analyzed very smoothly, "Secondly, there should be other purposes. If it is only for us, this period of hunting should be continuous, and it should not be so 'by the way'. There may be more than one or two people who come, just me. Not found yet."

Mu Xinghe felt strangely unhappy.

When Fen Tiangong dealt with Zhong Zijin, he used his senior brother to attack his heart. He didn't even need anyone to deal with him. He engraved a few marks to send him to die.

"I don't really know what they want to do," Mu Xinghe said with a curled lip. "This Jade Spring Valley is actually more complicated than I imagined, but... well, anyway, I'm almost sure of the clues. We'll ask later. Just know."

Zhong Zijin nodded, and suddenly asked: "Then where are we going? Find those people from Burning Heaven Palace? I have fought against them many times, and I probably understand their physical characteristics, so I can track the people from Burning Heaven Palace. If it is something else, It might depend on you."

Mu Xinghe shook his head and smiled: "Okay, let's do one thing first, and then go back and fight back." He paused and said, "Let's go find... our unilateral enemy."

They moved forward at a very high speed, and suddenly stopped in a forest.

The sky is about to break dawn, and there is still a faint fire in the woodland.

The light of the bonfire flickered in the night, casting the black figures on the ground, stretching them into long distances.

Even at such a time, someone was still awake. When he heard the voice, he suddenly shouted: "Who?"

The sound startled his companions again, some jumped up, some rubbed their eyes sleepily.

There was also a person who had already stood up and walked in front of them. There was no sleepiness in his voice, he was sober and cold, and even carried a gloomy killing intent: "I said, this place is so weird, please hurry up." Leave, you don't understand?"

That was the leader of the group of men in red that Mu Xinghe had seen before.

Mu Xinghe raised his hand, with a smile on his face that he thought was very friendly: "No, no, I can understand. I have been deliberately avoiding your tracks these days. It's just that your little master Haven’t found it yet? Are you in a hurry? But if you don’t leave the valley now, it might be too late, right?”

He only heard the leader snort coldly, and his hands had gathered true energy.

Mu Xinghe was not afraid at all, and there was still no fear in his smile, and there was a bit of cunning: "Don't be fierce, don't be fierce, I came here specially to negotiate a deal with you. I can help you get your little one The young master is back, you just need to tell me some things, such as the story of 'Mountain God', such as the relationship between this place and 'Fire' or 'Suppressing Sword', how about it?"

The man's back was straight, the sky hadn't fully brightened yet, only the fire was dancing in the forest, and half of his silhouette was also hidden in the shadow under the fire, the muscles on his face were tense, which made people feel a little nervous.

The man's voice was also cold: "Why should I trust you? Why should you make a deal with me?"

In fact, when Mu Xinghe saw this person before, he was still very stable, distant but polite, even if he was anxious, he was measured, so Mu Xinghe went back to this person directly to negotiate a deal without fear of death.But seeing him this time—probably because of the passage of time, or because Mu Xinghe slammed into the door without knowing what to do, this person can clearly see that he is in a bad mood, and his spirit is very tense. Highly stressful days.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Mu Xinghe quickly stood at attention, and apologized repeatedly, "I didn't think about killing people at the beginning, and I didn't expect this to happen. I also had acquaintances disappear like this. I can roughly guess the reason why this happened, so I have to deal with it. I know that if the child is lost, the consequences will be extremely serious if you can’t find it, and you will all be responsible, but now you bring a group of people, and you also need to deal with it. They are responsible, and the consequences of not leaving the Jade Spring Valley on the seventh day will be disastrous, I understand your difficulties."

Mu Xinghe still looks like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy now, and his outline is still a little immature. He has a pretty face that can be said to be handsome, but he is careless every day. The young man is fearless, as if the world is in his hands, but now he is standing upright and staring at the other party, is focused, sincere, and his eyes are like a lake of still water.His expression was very firm, as if something was really entrusted to him, and he would definitely do his best to complete it.

Mu Xinghe looked at each other and smiled slightly: "My acquaintance is probably in the same place as your young master, so I happened to be passing by. I'll help you find him and bring him back. You just need to provide me with some information. After listening I'll leave right away, don't bother you for half a minute, you have nothing to lose, don't you?"

The man's expression slowed down a little, and the qi in his hand was restrained, but his voice was still very indifferent: "What do you want to ask? 'Mountain God'?"

"Yes," Mu Xinghe nodded, "You are the big sect here, and you should know more about this place than others. We found something strange, because when we first came here, we lacked a lot of clues, so I can't deduce the specific situation. , I have to find someone to ask. Earlier I saw someone worshiping a mountain god, so I don’t know what’s going on with this mountain god?”

After listening to Mu Xinghe's words, the man made a gesture to signal Mu Xinghe to sit down. Mu Xinghe could probably see that this was another act of testing the trust between the two parties, so he sat down decisively.Because Zhong Zijin had been drifting away from the conversation all the time, and because he was really worried, he just stood aside with his sword in his arms.

The man didn't seem to care about Zhong Zijin, so he sat down and said in a deep voice, "Jade Spring Valley appeared here about a thousand years ago, and it was discovered about two or three hundred years ago that people searched for medicine in the valley. Many legends about Yuquan Valley are spread here. About the "mountain god" is one - people say that there is a mountain god living here, who will be punished by heaven if they kill too much here. A hundred years ago, there were two sects here After a big fight, he was seen by the mountain people passing by. The mountain people avoided the flames of war and came back half a day later. The two groups of people had disappeared without a trace. However, since then, and even now, no one has seen any of the two sects entering the valley. People. Some people say that if people kill people here, they will be led to the land of nothingness and disappear into the world, but these are just legends, and I have never seen it with my own eyes.”

Mu Xinghe listened intently, unconsciously tapping the ground with his fingers.

Is it because of this that there are few disputes here? The gang of Cangli faction is so powerful, and this person is well disciplined. It is reasonable to say that he has never seen a murderer die.Then those people in Fentian Palace also knew about such a thing, so they used such a roundabout method to kill him?It's just that if they are so restrained, can they still come in and kill people?So what's the point of them coming in to hunt them down?

But the man changed the subject again, as if the previous story had been finished: "About the legend of the mountain god, there used to be such a ballad 'In the north of the moon, in the west of the sun, there are immortals, like a wall like a gui'." Kind of like, but..."

Mu Xinghe suddenly raised his hand: "I'm sorry to interrupt. What is the whole content of that ballad?"

The other party gave Mu Xinghe a weird look, but in the end he didn't say anything. After a moment of silence, he started singing in a low voice.

"There is sweet rhinoceros in Ban, and chicory in Xi. There are immortals on the west side of the sun. Immortals are like jade, like a wall; there are Chaoyan in Ban, and reeds in Xi. There are immortals in the north of the moon. Immortals Xi, like Xiu Ruying."

The deep singing echoed in the mountains and forests.The mountains and forests are quiet and the sky is dawning.

There are animal voices in the deep valley, making this ancient ballad seem extremely strange.
