The peak behind Xuanjian Peak.
Carved sword cliff.
Li Bei led a group of disciples through the mountains and finally arrived here, only to see two people lying on the ground.
One of them is Li Gang, the great elder of sword making, and the other is Li Yi, the second elder of sword making.
Li Yi had many sword wounds on his body and fell in a bush, unconscious.
Li Gang was leaning on a stone on the edge of the Carved Sword Cliff. There was blood on his chest that he had coughed up, and he was sitting there dying.
Li Bai called "Second Uncle" and hurriedly led a few people over, while Li Luo and several other senior brothers rushed towards Li Yi.
"Second uncle, where is Elder Mei?" Li Bai asked while using his kung fu to heal Li Gang's injuries.
Li Gang pointed to the mouth of the carved sword cliff, with a sad look on his face, and endured the pain and replied anxiously: "The third child fell down on the carved sword cliff, go find him quickly!!" After saying that, he also fainted.
Li Bei used kung fu to heal the injuries of the two elders, and after protecting their meridians, he asked his disciples to carry them down the mountain. Then they quickly sent men to bypass the steep cliff of Kejian Cliff and go down the valley from the side to look for the third elder Mei Jun.
The next day.
morning.
Hanyang Peak, Yangxin Hall.
This is the place where Li Zong recovers from his injuries. After the old doctor enshrined in the sect carefully inspected the wounds of Li Gang and Li Yi, he said that although their injuries were serious, their lives were not in danger, so Li Bei and others came in to visit.
Li Yi was obviously much more seriously injured than Li Gang. At this time, both of them woke up and turned around. Li Yi was seriously injured and could only lie down, while Li Gang took a pillow to support his back and leaned against the bed.
The old doctor said not to make too much noise, so only Li Bai and Li Luo came to the room to check on their injuries.
Li Bai sat on the head of Li Yi's bed, and Li Luo stood on one side.
Li Yi originally wanted to imitate Li Gang to sit up, but Li Bai knew that he was seriously injured and comforted him: "Second Elder, there is no need to be polite. Just lie down and don't move, so as not to injure yourself. The old man’s arm is broken, so don’t move it around, so you can rest and recuperate.”
Hearing this, Li Yi closed and opened his eyes slightly, sighed, and replied: "It's all because of my low ability that I couldn't beat that man, so I lost my sword."
Li Gang frowned and said: "Second brother, it's not a big deal if the sword is lost, but the third child fell off the sword cliff!!"
Hearing this, Li Yi was so excited that he wanted to sit up, but his arm was tied with a fixed wooden board and he couldn't support it. He had to lie on the bed and looked at Li Gang sideways. He couldn't believe his ears and gritted his teeth and asked: "You said What? Say it again?"
Li Gang sighed heavily again and replied briefly, "The third child fell down!!"
Hearing this, Li Yi turned to look at Li Bai, asking for confirmation.
Li Bei nodded slightly, with a sad expression on his face.
Hearing this, Li Yi's eyes dimmed a lot and he said no more.
Li Gang knew the purpose of the sect leader's visit, so he probably still wanted to ask him about what happened last night, so he continued to talk:
"When the third child and I arrived, we saw the man in black had knocked you unconscious. We hurriedly joined forces to fight him, wanting to arrest him and also want to keep the sword. You know, we three old guys Among them, only Lao San Meijun's kung fu was higher. He drew his sword and went up to fight with the man in black. I ran over to use kung fu to heal your injuries. In order to prevent excessive blood loss, I just sealed a few wounds for you. When I was about to use my kung fu to clean up your internal injuries, Lao San couldn't beat the guy, so I hurriedly drew my sword and went up to help.
Unexpectedly, the fellow pretended to be unable to fight the third child. He took a few steps back, but took the opportunity to turn over with a kite and used another powerful sword technique. It was very exquisite and knocked the third child off the carved sword cliff.
By the time I arrived, it was already too late, so I had no choice but to fight the man in black. Unfortunately, my swordsmanship was far inferior to his, and I was seriously injured by him. I watched helplessly as he left.
Hey, it’s all useless to me! ! "
After Li Gang finished speaking, he raised his still movable left hand and slapped his cheek hard.
Li Yi heard the words, but couldn't move, so he had tears in his eyes and said in a deep voice: "If you didn't go to help Lao San fight at that time, why did you come to see me? Hey, I'm so confused, how can I have that sword in my life? It’s very useful, it’s made of meteorite iron that the sect leader and Mr. Wei personally found, hey, I’m so confused!!!”
Li Bai saw this, waved his hand, frowned and replied: "Okay, okay!! Second uncle, and second elder, you two should stop blaming yourself. Things have happened, and there is no use blaming yourself. Now it's time to Think about how to deal with it later. Second uncle, can you clearly see the appearance of the man in black? Or what kind of sword technique did he use? "
"My face and head were covered with black cloth, leaving only my eyes visible. I don't know what he looks like, but he looks like a young guy, but his ability is really powerful. His swordsmanship is not like ours." From the top ten sword sects." Li Gang frowned and thought about it carefully.
Li Bei curled his lips and muttered: "Second uncle, when you say this, doesn't it mean you didn't say anything? Hey, tsk..."
Li Gang replied: "That's right, that man's swordsmanship is not like swordsmanship, but more like swordsmanship. The man's sword feels like he is using a knife."
"Use a sword?" Li Bei frowned deeply and began to think about the sword-using sects around him, and replied: "There are not many sword-using sects in the world today, right? The sword-using sects in the Lushan area are just the Ba Dao sect. This sect was completely wiped out after Ji Ruge wiped out the leader last year. As for the other sword-wielding sects nearby, they are all useless small sects. The Central Plains Jianghu can beat the three elders with swords. , there shouldn’t be many, right? Luoluo, go tell your brother and send someone to check out the major sects that use swords in the world today."
Li Luo heard this and replied: "Okay, dad." After saying that, he turned around and left.
In the room, Li Gang asked again: "Have you sent someone to find the third child at Carve Sword Cliff in the back mountain? You have to see people when you are alive, and you want to see the corpse when you die!"
Hearing this, Li Bei replied: "From last night to now, we have been sending people to go around the cliff to look for it. They have never stopped. There is no news coming back yet." After Li Bei finished speaking, he patted his knees and stood up. He got up and said to the two of them: "Second uncle, you and the second elder take good care of your injuries. I will go and deal with the affairs within the sect first, and I will inform you as soon as there is any news about the third elder."
...
Three days later.
The Libei sect searched for Meijun for a long time to no avail. Finally, they found a pair of sect elders' clothes that had been chewed to pieces by wild dogs in the valley of Kejian Cliff. The disciples who were looking for him reported back and forth that the ground smelled like blood. Son, the clothes he brought back were also chewed into pieces. It was concluded that the body was eaten by wild dogs.
After searching for another four or five days, the disciples killed a lot of wild dogs in the valley, but no body of Mei Jun was found. In the end, Li Bei led the whole sect and searched under the entire Carved Sword Cliff. After all, they still found the corpse. There was no result, so I had to go back to Hanyang Peak.
In the end, Li Bei had no choice but to close the coffin and make a final decision, and informed Li Zong's superiors: "Mei Jun, the sword-making elder, died guarding Li Zong's sword pavilion. The whole family mourned for seven days, erected a tomb, and gave him a generous burial!" '
