Chapter 25 The Apprentice and the Living Sword

When everyone heard the words, they all stared at the series of grooves and ridges called "characters" on the narrow wall in front of them.

Those crack-shaped stone patterns that are tightly gathered together and dance like dragons and phoenixes are indeed overestimated if they are words, but if they are symbols, they have no rules at all.The three of them stood beside Gu Hebai with their faces facing the wall and stared at it for a long time, but they were the first to give a little reaction from the pillow. They leaned forward to feel for a while, and said tremblingly: " If you take a closer look, uh...it looks like an ancient script of the Baiwu people that has been handed down for a long time."

As soon as these words came out, even Yun Zhehuan couldn't help being shocked, and after a long time, he stared at him inexplicably and said, "What are you talking about? How come we are involved in the Baiwu tribe?"

"He's right." Gu Hebai nodded lightly and said, "In a sense, it does have a certain connection with the Baiwu tribe."

He snorted softly from the pillow, looked sideways at Yun Zhehuan and said, "If you want me to say it, you must have never listened carefully when the elder taught ancient characters earlier."

Yun Zhehuan's eyes paused for a moment, which made his ears turn red when he spoke. He faltered for a long time, but he didn't say a word. Finally, he took the paper lantern from the pillow and shone it. Following the growth trajectory of the characters, he studied all the way down, frowned and translated to everyone who was half-baked: "The ancient characters on this wall are quite old, and the order is also messy. They are probably talking about...the relationship between people and swords. It mentioned life and death, and the inevitable connection between blood and tribe."

He said these words in a cloud, rambling a bunch of inexplicable words, in the end, after all, no one could understand what the real meaning was - or, maybe even he himself didn't understand much, Just relying on the existing knowledge to directly pronounce the uncommon words one by one.

Gu Hebai seemed to understand this just right, he lowered his head and smiled, raised his hand to pull the paper lantern, sighed softly, closed his eyes and said in a low voice: "Strictly speaking, the characters on the stone wall are not exclusive to the Baiwu people. "

After hearing the words from the pillow, he lowered his eyes, stared at Gu Hebai and said: "It is recorded in the ancient history stone tablet of the Baiwu tribe that the first generation of patriarchs who first came to the northern region to establish the Baiwu tribe came from another tribe in ancient times. In a branch outside, these characters were only used by the Baiwu people when they were first established. Soon after, they gradually evolved into the existing simple characters... My family history is not very good, but The general direction of development is quite clear, if the wording of the expressed views is not rigorous enough, I would like to ask Deputy Head Gu to raise one or two points."

Gu Hebai bowed his eyebrows, and said humbly: "What's the matter with this little brother? When it comes to family history, how dare I, an outsider, play tricks in front of the native-born people of my own clan? It's just that I had practiced in seclusion in Xixin Valley for a long time. , and I have a good understanding of the Jielong Seal of the Baiwu tribe, so I know a little bit about it."

"The Jielong Seal, to be honest, is also a deadly poison carried by the first patriarch. It has been passed down to the present. Almost every hundred years, people of the same clan will be parasitized by the poisonous curse. The tragic end is unbearable. It's self-explanatory." Cong Zhen said, "At first you said that the two seal thieves fled all the way to the place where Xixin Valley was originally located. The rampant evil current really has a certain connection."

Gu Hebai stretched out his hand to support the heavy black veiled hat on his head, then nodded in response: "That's right, I guessed it right."

A sharp and compelling luster like the shadow of a knife suddenly lit up from the hawk-like eyes.After a long while of silence and thought, he finally raised his eyes again, and said to Shanggu Hebai's pupils as deep as the sea: "It seems that the deputy head of Gu knows how to crack the Dragon Tribulation Seal?"

Gu He raised his eyebrows and did not blurt out the answer. Instead, he stepped forward holding a paper lantern in one hand, and said in a concentrated voice from a distance in an unknown direction: "Now there are Baiwu people in the Northern Territory. At one time, he controlled countless secret arts, but there was only one, Jielong Seal, which was born in the unknown and could not be understood until death."

After hearing this, the three people in the back looked at each other. They didn't know what strange news Gu Hebai was expounding. They just felt that this person had become very sensitive and talkative since he came down to the ground. It was just long and deep, and most of them were sentences with unclear meanings. , others can't understand it, so they can only treat it as empty talk and forget it, and can't really take it to heart.

"There have been people in the world who have carefully guessed what the strange secret technique brought after the cracking of the dragon seal was broken, but in fact, the precious thing obtained after the seal is broken is neither the martial arts secret book that everyone yearns for, nor is it a source of encouragement. The special power of internal strength—”

Gu Hebai took a deep breath, and turned his eyes to Xue Lan, who had been silent for a long time, and said:

"...it is a blueprint, just a blueprint."

drawing.

The expressions of the three of them changed at the same time, even Xue Lanyin, who once thought that the matter had nothing to do with him, also raised his head, and met Gu Hebai's eyes in mid-air in amazement.

Xue Lan frowned and looked directly into his pupils.But after a while, I saw that his eyes were facing outward fiercely, and he happened to avoid the too hot/hot sight around him, and turned to face the top of the stone wall and said: "In ancient times, there were living sword clansmen, whose burning bones and blood could make swords , and its strong soul can cut iron. For thousands of years, countless sword masters and knights have tried to use the blood of living sword clansmen to forge weapons that never leave their hands, but... in the end, the successful ones are Few." After a pause, the corner of his eyes glanced at Xue Lanyin's strange expression that tensed up instantly, Gu He's white eyes slightly curved, and he continued with a half-smile, "Do you know why?"

Cong Pillow looked dignified and remained silent, while Yun Zhehuan was also terrified and at a loss for a while, but Xue Lan, who had originally taken a laissez-faire attitude towards everything, stabilized his figure because of being alone, and his face was full of surprises. For lingering cloud showers.

Gu Hebai raised his tone slightly, and said: "Because, only when the Jielong Seal that is sealed in the body of the Baiwu people is completely cracked, can we have the opportunity to witness the appearance of the living sword people. Although the existence of the Jielong Seal is only a blueprint, But its direction is clear, and anyone who finally succeeds in breaking the seal will be able to find the authentic trace left by the living sword."

The affirmative words had just been stated, and the ashen-faced Yun Zhehuan couldn't hold back his temper at all, so he blurted out and asked him: "You... what do you mean by saying this? A member of the living sword clan? Jie After the dragon seal is deciphered, it is just a blueprint for finding the real trace of the living sword? How can we get evidence for these things that have never been heard before...how can we trust you?"

"It doesn't matter whether you believe me or not." Gu Hebai said, "The important thing is that half of my goal has been achieved."

Yun Zhehuan's face paled, without saying a word, he pulled out the long knife at his waist, pointed straight forward to the vital part of Gu Hebai's neck, and said: "I just said that you are uneasy and kind, and on the surface you sincerely invite us to go down to chase people together. In the end, he wanted to take the Jielong Seal as his own... After talking so much nonsense along the way, Gu Hebai, is your mouth dry?"

From the time I heard the words on the pillow to this point, after drawing my sword and taking a few steps forward, I leaned slightly to block Yun Zhehuan behind me and said, "Vice-head Gu, you have studied the Jielong Seal so deeply, why is it so difficult?" Do you want to pull the three of me to go with you?"

Gu Hebaiyou is so calm, even if the murderous intent suddenly rises around him, he can spread his hands casually leaning against the outside of the stone wall, and said without any fear: "I have said so much, you really don't understand me Want to express something?"

Yun Zhehuan frowned, and said bitterly: "What else can I express? After all, it's just a wolf's ambition, trying to cover the sky with one hand..."

"That's not the case!" Ling Ran interrupted, and Gu Hebai strode forward, raised his wrist and pointed at Xue Lanyin, who was pale in the back, and said, "Flesh and blood can make a sword, and a weapon must be touched by it." Kuang... such a unique ancient bloodline is just the proof that the Living Sword Clan has not yet died out."

When Yun Zhehuan heard the words, he couldn't help trembling and said, "...what, what proof?"

Gu Hebai snorted coldly, but suddenly asked her with a more serious tone: "When I'm talking about this, who am I talking about, don't you have any answer in your heart?"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of all the people present changed in horror, but in the blink of an eye, they all showed unbelievable and strange expressions.Even though Xue Lan had already expected it in her heart, she still couldn't help being shocked by Gu Hebai's sudden words, and stood frozen in place for a long time, not knowing how to react for a while.

For such a long period of time, he has not doubted a series of things closely related to his own blood.It's just that the real topic has evolved all the way to this point, and it has gradually developed to the point where he is completely unable to control himself.

——The so-called living sword clansman whose flesh and blood can be fused with a weapon is alluding to... him?

How can this be?

Because Xue Lan has lived in a muddle for sixteen years, she has never heard of any inextricable connection between her identity and the Jielong Seal of the Baiwu tribe.

Right now, Gu He Baikong, with his rotten mouth, mixed all the right and wrong, black and white, and smashed all his brains at Xue Lanyin's messy head, which instantly smashed into a puddle that couldn't support the wall. of slime.

He was thrown into a daze, but he didn't completely lose his mind because of it.

Therefore, he let out a breath of cold air, closed his eyebrows, raised his voice and said slowly to Gu Hebai: "What are you excited about? What kind of living sword? What kind of blood? I have never heard of any of these messy things— —Anyway, no one can understand all the ancient characters of the Baiwu people on the wall, so if you lie a few words casually, are we going to believe it?"
