So at dusk on the eleventh day of the third month, the sun was in the west and it was not yet night.
At the foot of Winter Walking Mountain, in Hellebore Town.
Qianchun Restaurant.
On the second floor of the guest building, the room that was originally Xiaoyu's room opened the door and a man who looked to be in his thirties came out. He was dressed in coarse cloth and wearing a raincoat hat, and hurried downstairs. go out.
The waiter of Qianchun Restaurant was carrying bowls. He accidentally looked at such a man in coarse cloth walking out of the restaurant with some doubts in his eyes. After all, among the guests who came to stay in the hotel today, he seemed to have some impressions. There is no such simple-dressed peasant family.
Under the puzzled eyes of the waiter, the middle-aged man walked out of the restaurant in a leisurely manner. He changed his horse for a good horse, bought two large jars of good wine with a thick waist in the town, and prepared another one. The slightly larger wine gourd was also filled with good wine. He put it on his waist, prepared a pole, and rode up the winter mountainside at high speed.
When he was still one mile away from the Xuantian Sect gatehouse, he tied up his horse, unloaded two jars of good wine, carried them on a pole, and swayed all the way to the Dongxing Mountain gatehouse.
This man is none other than Xiao Yu, who has changed his body and changed his face. Of course, few living people can recognize Xiao Yu’s face, a man in his thirties, because everyone in the world knows about this face. His name is Ji Ruge and Zhiyuke.
Taking advantage of the afterglow of the setting sun, Xiaoyu picked up two jars of good wine and headed straight for the gate tower of Xuantian Sect.
Naturally, there was no Nirvana Sword in the bamboo pole on his shoulder. The Nirvana Sword was still on the beam of Tancheng Shanxing Tavern in Xiaodongxing Mountain. When he planned to leave Qianzhou, it would not be too late to retrieve it.
He walked all the way to the gate tower of Xuantian Sect.
Before he could speak, the two boys on the gatehouse shouted out first.
"Stop, you are not allowed to trespass in the realm of Xuantian Sect. What do you do?" Two young men on the gate tower were holding long knives. One of them pointed the knife at Xiao Yu and shouted to Xiao Yu who was standing below the gate tower. .
Xiaoyu cleared her throat, straightened the brim of her hat, lowered her voice and said in a low voice: "Hello, brothers in the church, I'm here to deliver wine."
The two young men guarding the gatehouse frowned and muttered: "The one who delivers the wine? Didn't they just deliver it once in the morning?"
When Xiao Yu heard this, she was not in a hurry. Instead, she looked at the two people on the gate with a smile and shouted: "Brothers, it's no coincidence that I did give it away once in the morning, but after checking the account, the shopkeeper said that there were two missing things in the morning. Jars are good for wine, no, since it’s still dark, let me seize the time to pick up two jars and fill them up.”
After hearing this, the two boys guarding the building looked at each other, as if they were discussing something, and finally nodded. One of them turned around and went down the gate. The other shouted to Xiao Yu: "Okay, hurry up and send it up. We are here." I’ll let you go up the mountain.”
Not long after, the boy who came downstairs to open the door quickly opened the door bolt, opened the red lacquer door at the bottom of the Shimen Tower, and said to Xiao Yu: "Come in."
Xiaoyu carried two jars of good wine, with a respectful smile on his face, and walked in. The boy guarding the building closed the door. Xiaoyu was not in a hurry to go up the mountain, but put down the burden and then took the wine from his waist. He handed the gourd to the boy respectfully and said with an apologetic smile: "The shopkeeper said, I feel sorry for bothering the two brothers at this point. This gourd of good wine is for the two brothers. Reward two brothers for their hard work."
The boy took the wine gourd, opened the gourd cover, took a few sips with his nose, raised his thumb and praised: "Yes, it is indeed a good wine. I'd better help the wine delivery brother to make an extra trip."
Xiaoyu then took a few taels of silver from her pocket and handed it over, whispering: "The shopkeeper gave it to me privately, saying it was to reward the two brothers."
When the boy saw this, he took the money with a smile and nodded.
"Let's go, the mountain road is not easy to walk in the evening, so walk more slowly." The young man accepted the money and said a few polite words of concern to Xiao Yu with a bright smile.
Xiaoyu took advantage of the situation and asked: "Brother, the brother who delivered the wine in the morning went out to deliver the wine. The shopkeeper just asked me, the new arrival, to come up. He hasn't told me where the dining hall of your sect is. I would like to know, brother." Let’s talk for a while.”
When the boy heard this, he smiled and replied: "You, just walk up the stone steps until you reach the gate tower of the main hall of Xuansi Hall. Turn to the right and go straight to our dining hall. Wherever you go, someone will pick up the drink for you."
Xiaoyu raised her hands and cupped her fists and replied: "Thank you, thank you very much, I'll go now."
After Xiaoyu finished speaking, he turned around, picked up the pole, and walked up the mountain with the wine jar.
When they arrived at the door of the main hall of what the boy called "Xuansi Hall", they saw two guards guarding the door. Without saying much, they picked up the wine and turned right, heading towards the dining hall. There were corridors, paths, and stone paths all around. It had red walls and green tiles, and many of the guards had already withdrawn. Dai walked not far from the dining hall and saw that Xuantian Sect's dining hall was already brightly lit, and many of the chefs were already busy.
He handed over the two jars of wine, saying they were just for replenishing the wine. The people in the kitchen didn't care and just took it.
Xiaoyu sent the wine over, then turned and left. When he arrived at the middle corridor, he saw that no one was there. When he saw a small courtyard, he leaned the pole against the door of the courtyard and secretly turned into other courtyards.
Xiaoyu's Qinggong was very good, and it was not difficult to find Zhishou Hall. Within a few minutes, he followed the tile roof and the garden next to several large banyan trees, and found the location of Zhishou Hall. But at this time There are many guards guarding the Xuantian Sect Zhishou Hall. The lights have been lit in the courtyard. Judging from the posture, something important should be discussed inside.
Without caring about anything else, he directly followed the tile roof and carefully jumped onto the tile roof of the courtyard. With his skillful chess moves, he landed on the main hall. There were many masters of Xuantian Sect, so he couldn't take it lightly. He tried his best. Reduce your footing steps to avoid being heard and falling into the enemy's hands.
"Hmph, I think you are going to rebel! Tong Diao, the four of you are all members of my Zhishoutang, but you still have the slightest intention of being loyal to me?"...
Xiaoyu listened to this man's words and hurriedly paused and listened carefully. The voice of the speaker was familiar. It was the voice of Qi Guan, the elder of Zhishou Hall. Xiao Yu had spoken to Qi Guan that day. It had only been a few days. As for forgetting his voice.
Later, I heard the person who was called reply: "Sixth Elder, the four of us were taught martial arts by the Great Elder. We have served you Zhishoutang for so many years, and we have treated you well. Now that the Great Elder has gained power, please give me a favor." Be calm, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."
"Haha, you are a white-eyed wolf and an underfed dog. I know that bastard Wen Jinchun has done nothing good." Hearing Qi Guan continue, "Is Wen Jinchun going to rebel? Is he still here? Want to take charge of the Xuantian Sect? Want to be the leader?"
"Elder Qi, please calm down and listen to my advice, Tong Diao?" Tong Diao, one of the four ghosts of the Demon Sect, was persuading Qi Guan, "The leader said a few years ago that after traveling for five years, all these things It's been more than six years, who knows if I can come back? Just listen to the disciple's advice, why not just obey the great elder's wishes? If the great elder becomes the leader, you will still be your elder. Our Xuantian Sect will definitely be able to Under the leadership of the Great Elder, we will reach a higher level.”
