Three Masters' Sword

The golden top of Ghost Toad Mountain is in the shape of a toad's mouth, opening to the moon, as if it wants to jump out of the mountain and swallow the moon for food, so it is named after it.Originally it was only called Toad Mountain, but since this group of demons and ghosts established their sect here, occupying the mountain as king, and using the five plagues as guardians, it was very unlucky, and everyone was very afraid, so naturally they called it "Ghost Toad Mountain".The shape of the mountain is steep and dangerous, the golden dome is narrow and steep, and the "Tongtian Dao" at the top is like a moon-climbing ladder. The tall pavilions and palaces were built broadly and flatly, just like the tongue of a golden toad.At this time, torches were set up along the way, illuminating the surrounding area in red, and before they got close, they could already hear the sound of knives and blades clashing, and there was no end to it.

Yu Yuqing walked among the trees in the forest, and approached silently, only heard the sound of the mountain stream, looked at it under the moonlight, and saw that the water was actually red with a fishy smell; Young congregants dressed in five-colored clothes obviously went through a fierce battle.Many people in front formed a large circle, surrounding several people.Some congregants are guarding the pass of Tongtian Road. There is a section of this mountain road buried in the middle of the mountain. The line is extremely narrow, but it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Those who besieged were dressed in different colors, and their appearance was cute and eclectic. They were obviously members of the Southern School.One of them, dressed in sackcloth, came out of the crowd and said: "Master Shi, although we have different sects, we still have the same origin in the end. For the sake of the old man, Toad Saint, there is no need to beat him anymore. They are more or less hurt, why not sit down and have a good talk."

This Immortal Lord Shi is Shi Wenye, the "Middle Plague Ghost" among the five ghosts in Toad Mountain, because the name Plague Ghost is naturally indecent, so it is very polite to call the ghost a fairy and respect him as "Immortal Lord".Shi Wenye snorted, he was hit by a palm, and his breath was disordered. Knowing that it was not worthwhile to resist at this time, he snorted, sat on the ground and adjusted his breath, and said coldly: "You still know that it is for the sake of the old man, Toad Saint? He If the old man is still doing well, you dare to go up to Guichan Mountain to rebel?"

The man in sackcloth said: "We didn't come to rebel. This year we went up to the mountain to celebrate his birthday, and we heard that the old man was a little sick. Naturally, we wanted to come and see." Although he said so, the group of people with him obviously showed disdain An old woman with a hot temper said, "What do we have to rebel against? The Southern School has been suppressed by the Ghost Toad Mountain for many years. Everywhere we go, it is because this Toad Saint is the founder of the Southern School. He is regarded as a cult demon. Has he lived for almost 130 years? Has he not lived enough? I don’t know if he is real or fake! But thank God, whether it is true or not, he is going to die! He is not dead today, we It is also necessary to give him a good end and be filial." The implication is that even if Toad Sheng did not die of illness, they will send him back to the west.

Just as Shi Wenye was about to make a fuss, a little-eyed Toutuo next to him said, "I said, you don't have to look like you are loyal to the Lord, Boss Shi! Before we came, didn't you five ghosts just bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang Work hard? What are you fighting for? Is it for who will be the next master of Toad Mountain, or for something else? The old man Feng will die if he dies. The secret recipe of immortality has been bluffed and deceived for so many years, but has it been passed on to you? "When he said this, the congregants of Toad Mountain all looked extremely ugly, and the casual cultivators from all sects and sects who came to attack the mountain couldn't help laughing out loud.A dwarf with a shoulder pole pretended to say: "Since Toad Saint is doomed to die now, it seems that immortality is also a lie." Someone pretended to be surprised, and praised: "What? Can you take it seriously?" There was another burst of laughter around.

Shi Wenye said coldly: "Toad Saint has actually lived to be 130 years old so far. Even if he is not immortal, he is still a long-lived crane. His miraculous skills are world-class, and it is only natural that others can't learn this method of longevity. What is there to distinguish between true and false?"

There was a man sitting on the ground next to him with a long pale face. He pressed the wound on his abdomen and pressed the acupuncture point to stop the bleeding. There was a sword wound there.The basket-like thing on his back was put aside at this moment, and the bamboo strips that had been cut to the top were all bulging.Yu Yuqing recognized him as one of the four ghosts who came to rob them that night. At that time, his martial arts were so high and his advances and retreats were amazing that even Tang Guangxian didn't dare to confront him directly; but for some reason he was seriously injured now.At this moment, he sneered, and said, "What are you hiding at this time? Brother, we can kill each other and benefit others, that's okay. But what do you plan to do when you see Toad Saint? Even if he was killed with a single knife, it wouldn't show any heroism, just let him suffer less and leave a few hours earlier. Spread the word, hehe, all great heroes muster up your courage to take advantage of the danger and kill him with your hands. Centenarians, that doesn't sound very good." The group of heroes were about to yell and refute, he blocked his hand again, and continued, "I guess everyone is anxious to see the toad saint, and it is not to accompany the bedside to die as a filial piety, but Is it to force him to find out the secret of immortality before he dies?"

The mother-in-law snorted, and said: "What kind of people do you five ghosts think we are? We have long since believed that there is no secret method of immortality. Besides, I, Mrs. Yan, have lived enough, and now I am 60 years old. Even if you die now, it will be easier than being a lunatic and living to one hundred and thirty." Everyone shouted: "It is true!" If you can’t live to see tomorrow, how can you live a hundred years or live forever?”

As soon as the sackclothed man waved his hand, everyone stopped talking. He looked tall and burly, with clear brows and demeanor. It was obvious that this group of people admired him.The man looked big and rough, and was covered in blood since the fierce battle, so he looked extremely rough, but he spoke quite gently, and said: "The people here are all the leaders of the Southern sect. As a patriarch, for so many years, he was assigned to the Southern School, obeying the orders of his old man, and no one dared to disrespect the patriarch. But 100 years have passed... What happened in the previous generation continued. In the next generation, the next generation, the emperor on top of him has changed three or four times, but his old man... This is like an indefinable shackle for our descendants. Our faction inheritance, although it originated from the toad The Southern faction created by the sanctuary, after a hundred years of development and constant renewal, has nothing to do with Ghost Toad Mountain. When we were alive, none of us was his old man's opponent, but since he was seriously ill, we can finally take The relationship is over."

The old lady Yan said: "Wan Pusong, what's the use of you talking so nicely now? If you hit, you hit, and if you kill, you kill. Either don't do it, or do it thoroughly. If you don't kill the ghost on Guichan Mountain today Killing all ghosts will not solve the vengeance that we have been driven away for several lifetimes and have been stigmatized for several lifetimes. This toad palace should also be burned down, so that others will not think that we are kind to this ancestor. unfinished."

There was a lady who used Qianzhen named Qiu Wuniang, also known as 'Zhen Shen', her voice was soft and charming, and she said at this time: "We are not in the orthodox school of martial arts, and we have to be looked down upon for no reason. It doesn’t matter if this patriarch doesn’t give us face, but because of his madness, other people think that we are similar to the eight religions. It's admirable, but we always stop our children from crying at night. That's all, we don't have anything to do with each other on weekdays. We don't take it seriously when we are upright and not afraid of shadows. But you want us to die Forget it, asking us to seek the bad luck of the Twelve Families for no reason is tantamount to setting our Nanpai Baimenqianhui on fire, which is absolutely unacceptable."

Naming Toutuo spat and said, "You guys are pretty good. You have a grievance and a debtor. If you go back to the source, you have some relationship with the Southern School. I, Sha?, can be counted as the Southern School for no reason, just because I The original martial arts routines are somewhat similar to the style of everyone. Hey, this is really an unfair injustice. I can’t escape and I can’t get rid of it. Ask this question; opening a museum to accept disciples, you actually want to ask. The martial arts in the world come from the same source, so why can he create it while the Toad Saint can create it, but I can't?" After speaking, his expression became ruthless.

Shi Wenye ignored him, as he was the head of the five ghosts, he had actually been in charge of all the affairs of Guichanshan as the Pope of the Southern School for the past ten years.He knew at the moment that the others were all hypocrites, and that Wan Pusong was willing to take the lead, so it was impossible to impress him, so he said indifferently: "So, everyone is disobedient to Toad Saint's discipline, and wants to stand on their own. Then his old man If today passed away, the name of the Southern School, it is better for everyone present to be a witness, and let it go, is that what you mean?"

Sure enough, Wan Pusong, who is called "Lingnan Xiajia", smiled gently: "That's not necessary. Although each sect and sect are different, they also come from a school with a unique style. The Nanpai has a long-standing reputation. That's all everyone present. The little bit of research and development can not be lost in our hands. That is also the original intention of Toad Sheng and his old man. Look at the northern faction. The unified command and the alliance of five provinces have become so powerful recently that even the imperial court fears him three points. The reason why our Southern faction is disorganized and despised by the world is, in the final analysis, because there has been no new leader for a hundred years, and it is too old-fashioned Conservative, full of ghosts. Each school has its own way, it is difficult to communicate, and it is difficult to make progress in martial arts. Now that the ancestor has passed away, we should also elect a new authentic Southern School to revive the reputation." He said this The words must have been communicated with the crowd long ago, as soon as the words were spoken, all the people from those sects applauded.

Shi Wenye said: "Well, so the first step of Master Wan is to kill all the congregants on the mountain, the second step to kill the ancestors, and the third step to kill each other. Very good, very good!"

Wan Pusong's face froze, but he didn't show any emotion, and said: "Master Shi, just like what Immortal Master Zhang said just now, if his old man is still in good condition, how could we get here? After all, our ancestors have been kind to us We don’t need to do anything, but we can count on our filial piety to watch him die for him. As for the rest of the congregation on the mountain, if Lord Shi Xian shows mercy, we can all go down the mountain. .”

The fairy master Zhang was the one who was injured and stabbed on the ground, the "Spring Plague Ghost" Zhang Yuanbo among the five ghosts, at this moment he smiled and said: "You have killed the generals all the way up, and now you are asking us to show mercy." The dwarf said angrily: "When you threatened and threatened us to obey orders, did you ever talk about mercy? Now everything is just retribution."

Wan Pusong said: "If Immortal Master Shi agrees to take out the lease of the Southern School of 'Thousands of Hundreds Meetings' and burn it in public, we will let the people go up the mountain and teach them to go down the mountain."

Yu Yuqing heard that they were bargaining, discussing life and death, and thought: "This is too bad, they fight like this, no matter which side, it seems that the toad saint is dead, no matter whether they can agree or not, it doesn't matter. I don’t have time to talk to me.” But if you want to take the opportunity to find Toad Saint, the way up the mountain pass is tightly guarded, so it is expected that it will be difficult to fly up even if you have wings.He approached slowly and quietly from behind the tree, and sure enough, everyone was sticking together, and no one noticed.

Zhang Yuanbo, the Spring Plague ghost, said: "This time we are in great misfortune, so we have to leave it to you. There is no need to mention Ghost Toad Mountain or something. But let me teach you a method. It is better to choose here right now. The new pope comes out. Everyone is convinced who he has chosen, then we will get out of the way and ask him to go up the Tongtian Road to meet Toad Saint."

All the heroes shouted in unison: "Why? We all have to go up!" "His grandma, he really thinks he is some kind of god, and others can't see it?"

Shi Wenye said coldly: "My second brother is kind. Where did you think he got this injury? There are five of us, why are the other three missing?"

That Toutuo wondered: "Is it reasonable for you brothers to fight against the wall and kill each other?"

Zhang Yuanbo sighed, and said: "Our brothers fight against the wall, that's true. We can kill each other, but that's not necessarily the case. You don't want to obey the orders of the Toad Saint and destroy the foundation of the Southern School and the fate of future generations, so you don't care about your life and kill The Ghost Toad Mountain is here. The five of us brothers said something presumptuous. The affairs of the Toad Mountain have been under our hands for so many years, and we don't want to see it decline. Who would have thought that this time the four ghosts would come out and fight with the Northern faction? Robbing people, unexpectedly got a big nail, and was counted by Huan Bailing from the northern faction. Toad Sheng was insane from his illness, and when he heard that we hadn't snatched away Fengwen's successor, he was furious, and slapped his third brother Liu Yuanda was beaten to death. A few of us ran up to try to save each other, but the eldest brother got a finger of ice, and I got an invisible sword move."

Everyone groaned, their faces shuddered, showing great panic.Yu Yuqing couldn't believe it, the four ghosts followed them that day, and they were all top-notch fighters in the world. They advanced and retreated like ghosts, and they didn't dare to confront them head-on; how could they be killed by someone's palm?This person is actually a centenarian who is seriously ill and will die soon?

Shi Wenye said: "We don't let you go up, but we are actually caring about your lives. Right now, the fourth and fifth sons are using the sleeping dragon mentality to stop the old man with all their might, and finally use ambergris to make him faint. Falling asleep. You choose a person with the highest martial arts, the best internal skills, and preferably good at lightness kung fu to visit. Only by walking to his side can you use your internal strength to resist the poisonous miasma he cannot restrain; Only when you start a difficult situation can you be fully alert, maybe you can survive a move, and then escape with light effort."

Some of the crowd didn't believe it, and shouted and cursed: "I'm afraid you are bragging, thinking that a few words can scare us away? No matter how powerful he is, he has lived to be over a hundred years old, and he has become seriously ill—"

Suddenly there were two bangs on the golden roof, and two figures were thrown down from a line of sky.That hand is so strong that throwing people is like throwing stones.Both Shi Wenye and Zhang Yuanbo had sharp eyesight, and exclaimed: "Fourth brother, fifth brother!!!" Regardless of their own injuries, they hurriedly stood up and rushed forward to catch the two ghosts.Everyone raised their heads in unison to look at the pass, only to see a faint figure under the moonlight, like a haggard tree, holding on to the narrow mountain wall with one hand, as if it had exhausted all his strength. "You are going to elect a new Pope..." he gasped, "It's great. It's about time." He seemed to be beckoning to the people below, but the crowd took a step back instead. "...Whoever can climb the 99-level Tongtian Dao, come to me, and I will pass on the mantle to him, hehe, the Supreme of the Southern School! What a great name, come on!..." He sat down slowly , coughing violently again.There are thousands of people on such a big mountain peak, just now the voices are as loud as chimes and gongs, and it is so quiet that you can even hear the sound of needles falling to the ground. The echoes are endless.

The two people who were thrown from the top of the canyon were Zhao Lang, the ghost of autumn plague, and Zhong Rengui, the ghost of winter plague.Shi Wenye and Zhang Yuanbo flew forward, each showing their lightness skills, trying to catch the two brothers, but how steep are the nine hundred steps?Otherwise, it would not be called "Tongtian Dao" here.The two people fell very fast, as if they were thrown straight from the cliff; Shi and Zhang were seriously injured, although they jumped up to hug them, they were already at the end of their strength, unable to catch them, they were taken away instead De also fell down; the others all stared at Toad Saint with wide eyes and held their breath, no one cared about their life and death, even if they saw this situation, they definitely would not take action to save the four ghosts.

Yu Yuqing said in his heart: "Not good! If no one rescues them, the four of them will fall to their deaths." At the moment, without thinking about it, she flew out, and the first one came first, jumping into the middle of the two groups of people. Slapping two palms on the waists of the four people, he flipped over the waves and got behind the four people, pushing the backs of the two people who were thrown down, but he sent it forward slowly, counteracting the force of the fall, As if a gust of wind was blowing slowly, the four of them floated forward at the same time. Under the light of the bright moon, the figures of the five of them were clearly illuminated.The haggard old man couldn't help but let out a soft moan, and everyone also looked at them.

Yu Yuqing used all his zhenqi on those four people to help them float forward slowly, avoiding the fate of smashing their skulls on the rocky steps, but he also used up all his qi in one breath, and was also beaten The weight of those four people turned back, and their bodies fell sharply. With their toes pointing a little on the mountain steps, they jumped down one by one. The four of them were about to hit him on the forehead.Finally, some spectators couldn't help exclaiming: "Be careful!" Before he finished speaking, he slumped his feet, stabilized his figure, swung his arms, and disassembled the four of them into spinning tops. Turning right, turning left from right, he followed his feet, turned his body around, and called him casually, the four of them kept turning around him, eliminating all the falling momentum.Everyone was stunned to see that the four ghosts were all dizzy and wobbled, and fell to the ground slowly. Yu Yuqing stopped his steps and bowed all around, "I've offended you!" Shi Wenye fell to the ground , wryly smiled and said: "Don't dare! If it wasn't for this... hero to save us, we four ghosts would really be ghosts today!" After saying that, he tried his best to get up and went to check the injuries of Zhao Zhong and the two of them, seeing that their faces were blue Hei, delirious, Xindao was probably hit by Toad Saint's poisonous sand, he hastily tapped a few acupoints on the heart, first to protect the heart vein.

Everyone looked at each other in astonishment, thinking who is this person?Why haven't you seen it before?But his martial arts are extremely high, his internal strength is profound, and he shows his face to others. He must be an expert of some kind, and he doesn't want to be seen through.The Southern faction breaks the rules because of its own character, and has always regarded the rules and dogmas in the martial arts as nothing. There are many slutty people in the sect. Seeing that the other party is unwilling to reveal their identities at this time, they are not surprised. I will ask.What's more, there are hundreds of people who come up the mountain, and there are some who can't fully recognize them for a while.

The haggard old man was standing at the top of Tongtian Dao at the opening of the toad's mouth. At this time he sneered, gasping and hissing; he said: "I thought...the ones that came here were all pustules, so it may not be so.... old! On the rivers and lakes I don't recognize any of the younger generations....What, I... am about to die. Who dares to come up?..." Although he was far away, from here, the person was no more than an inch long, but the Nanpai None of the heroes from all walks of life dared to answer the words, and some were trembling all over.That toad sage slowly raised a finger, his eyes seemed to sweep over them, the people who were seen were trembling, their tongues were tied, they were actually so far away, it was hard to see where their eyes were in the night They could tell clearly, but these people clearly felt that his hawk-like gaze had just swept past them absolutely.

"...Why, no one dares to come up? Didn't you just want to fight... the authenticity of the Southern School?..." The old man who lived for two years and witnessed several ages coughed and panted, but his voice was It can be clearly heard from the top of the mountain, "Yeah. Back then... when your ancestors, or masters, wanted to acquire a skill that was enough to live on from me, they signed a loan for me to drive .Isn’t that what you want?…Whoever you have the ability to come up to me, I will burn the loan of that family, and I will write it off in a dignified manner. When you don’t let you speak out, it seems to be taking advantage of my old man ..." He laughed with a bloody phlegm-like voice.

Yu Yuqing looked at the old man.In children's stories, he is a heart-eating ghost; in Mei Jiuzhang's eyes, he is an immortal monster; in Tang Guangxian's narration, he is a madman.But when he saw it right now, he felt that this person was extremely clear-headed, extremely powerful in martial arts, exuding the coercion and arrogance of a master of a generation, even though he was hunched in such a body, he seemed to be far beyond this body Beyond that, chilling.The so-called people's words are false, seeing is believing, there is no clearer testimony than this moment.

When Toad Saint said this, although everyone was terrified, there were still some people who were not afraid of death. They gritted their teeth and shouted: "Death is death, who is afraid of who will come?" "Isn't that why we came here?" "Master Before passing away, I told you to redeem the loan, otherwise you will die in peace." "Even if you fail, you have to try, so that you can live up to the teaching of the master." Most of them are young and energetic boys, and they walk up.On the contrary, those who led the group with the strongest momentum were very clear that even Zhao Lang and Zhong Rengui among the five ghosts were thrown down like sacks, and Liu Yuanda was slapped to death. What ability do I have to surpass them? ?It is said that the five ghosts started from a young age, and the toad sage personally taught them to become talents. If they can be killed so easily, wouldn't they die in vain if they went up?

When those people stepped up the stairs, it was Shi Wenye who shouted, "Don't go up!" Several people thought there was a hidden weapon, and hurriedly stood against the wall, but there was no sound of breaking the air for a long time, and another person fell down without any problems.A few people were terrified, how dare they go up?He ran down as if escaping, and with a few bangs, two more fell down; before reaching the flat ground, there was no one left, and they all fell on the steps.

Everyone was shocked and said: "What's going on?" But they didn't dare to rush to check.

Shi Wenye smiled wryly and said, "I've already said that if you don't have enough internal strength, you will die recklessly if you go up. He dares to call him 'Toad Saint'. He is the king of all poisons."

In the crowd, there was a famous doctor who was nicknamed "Reincarnation Hua Tuo" and said with his tongue trembling: "He... he... the old man has used poison all his life, and he is afraid that the true energy of the meridians has long been assimilated with the poison, and all of them are poisonous. Now... ...Now the deadline...is approaching, the meridians in the body are... probably...unable to control, and the poisonous gas is spreading out with the power of the whole life. If the internal force is weak and can't resist, the poison will come from the pores of the skin Seep in..."

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard that he was about to die so he was practicing kung fu; but when they heard that the poisonous gas also permeated with his kung fu, and poisoned people who were tens of feet away from him, they couldn't help being shocked, thinking: "even if His skill has weakened, and this poison alone will make it impossible for people to get close to him. How can we avenge him?"

Toad Saint Ru Fengsheng stood up slowly, broke off a nearby branch to make a crutch, and said: "If you don't come, I will come down." Slowly, like an old man, he walked down the stairs step by step; Yu Yuqing just saw that his head was covered with white hair, and he was as proud as snow under the moonlight.On the contrary, the people surrounding the mountain were terrified. When he took a step forward, the others took a step back. After retreating more than ten steps, a few people couldn't help but sat down and knelt down; Shua knelt down a large area, and whoever called out first: "Master Patriarch! Disciple... who committed a crime, deserves death!" Everyone bowed down in unison, perched on their knees, grabbed the ground with their heads, and shouted in disorder: "Master Patriarch, this disciple has made a mistake, please punish Master Patriarch!"

After kneeling down, Yu Yuqing was the only person standing immediately.Among the four ghosts, Shi Wenye and Zhang Yuanbo were both injured, and they fought with these mountain attackers for a long time, and their strength was exhausted. After being rescued by him, they hurriedly adjusted their breath and sat on the ground all the time.

Ru Fengsheng stared at him from afar, and said, "Boy, do you have the guts to come up?" Yu Yuqing felt as if he was being held between his teeth by some ferocious beast, his whole body was covered with shudder, and his back Cold sweat drenched his clothes, and he couldn't help his teeth chattering.But he thought to himself that if I want to invite such people to rescue the third brother, he must not back down here, let him take it lightly.At that moment, he gritted his teeth, let alone said anything, stretched out his arms, and flew past the hundred steps in the blink of an eye, and people rushed up like a shadow of a frightened ghost.
