The mountain range where the Fuyao Sect is located is very steep and steep, and the peaks are extremely high, so most places in the sect are covered in clouds and mist.
Xu Huaigu climbed over two mountains in the clouds and mist before arriving at Changyue Peak where the Patriarch Hall is located.
It is said that this Changyue Peak is the central area of Fuyao Sect. Because the mountain peak is very high, it has a natural curvature. If the clouds and fog dissipate on a sunny day, it will look like a crescent moon from a distance, so it is called Changyue. peak. Moreover, the mountain peak is so high that standing on it at night, it seems like you can touch the bright moon in the sky, which is why the name of the peak is Changyue Peak.
The location of the Patriarch Hall is easy to find. There is a brightly lit place vaguely near the mountain peak. That is the light of the natal soul lamp in the Patriarch Hall day and night.
The Fuyao Sect is not like the New Rain Sect, it only has that natal soul lamp. Da Zong naturally has Da Zong's courage and methods. The gathering of hundreds of soul lanterns is quite a majestic scene.
Each natal soul lamp costs one hundred large beads a year, which is not a small amount of money. Moreover, the soul lamp is closely related to people. If the soul lamp goes wrong, the person will be severely injured. Therefore, the soul lamp has disadvantages and advantages, and it needs to be carefully weighed before using it.
Xu Huaigu walked to the door of Fuyao Sect's Patriarch Hall, only to see an elder with sharp eyebrows and angry eyes guarding the main entrance. Everyone entering and leaving the Patriarch Hall must be subject to his strict interrogation. As expected, the demeanor of the Xian family is different.
But one thing that makes Xu Huaigu a little strange is that despite the Fuyao Sect's wealth, the Ancestral Hall still only has one floor. It seems that this is the consensus of sects all over the world. The ancestral hall has only one floor to highlight its majesty and solemnity.
When the elder who guarded the gate saw that Xu Huaigu was a stranger, he immediately increased his vigilance and stared at him with a pair of sword-shaped eyebrows. Xu Huaigu was not upset, so he sat cross-legged beside a gravel path beside the Patriarch Hall and looked into the depths of the path.
He doesn't do anything illegal, so what can the elders do to him?
Sure enough, as Yin Zushi said, this is a road specifically for bathing behind the mountain. They are all women and there is not a single man.
It was already night at this time, and there were not many women coming to the mountains. Most of them had returned from taking a bath in the mountains. Even though she is a swordsman, the woman does not wear a sword when bathing. So Xu Huaigu saw groups of women wearing loose bathrobes walking past, bringing with them a steady stream of fragrance.
Xu Huaigu smiled lightly, he really came to the right place. With such beautiful scenery in the world, no one in the Fuyao Sect is knowledgeable about it. He has it all to himself. Life is really so happy. If it wasn't too frivolous, he would have gotten some wine to drink.
Little did he know that if an ordinary man from the Fuyao Sect were to sit so blatantly on this road, he would have been rallied by this group of women to draw swords long ago. But when they saw that Xu Huaigu had a strange face and was extremely handsome, they felt a little love in their hearts and wanted to show off a bit, so they didn't care that he was sitting here.
If Xu Huaigu knew that they all had this idea in mind, he would definitely praise her with the word "smart and beautiful". In his eyes, such a naive and cute person is feminine. If this woman were as arrogant and unkind as An Xiaoyu and Fan Xuan, or as ignorant as a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, Xu Huaigu was about to be disappointed.
Some women couldn't help feeling lonely, and encouraged by the sisters around them, they either cast a few flirtatious glances at Xu Huaigu from a distance, or thought about going to strike up a conversation. But Xu Huaigu appreciated it and said a few words, but he didn't even say his name, which made the women a little annoyed and disappointed.
Xu Huaigu didn't care about the eyes of the people around him.
Gu Zi looked into the depths of the path, but he was thinking anxiously: "Where is Yu Qin? Why doesn't Yu Qin come out?"
Suddenly, he heard the voice of a woman screaming angrily not far away, breaking the quiet and ambiguous atmosphere. She shouted angrily: "Go away, don't stop me, I must ask the Fuyao Sect for an explanation today!"
The woman's voice was trembling, with the sound of hurried footsteps, and she was obviously very angry.
Xu Huaigu only felt that the woman's voice was very familiar. He took another look at the figure running in the dark night, like a swift leopard. In a few steps, he went up to the ancestral hall and rushed straight to the door angrily.
Everyone around was startled by the woman's behavior and looked there. I saw that the woman was coming in a menacing manner and did not even touch the ancestral hall.
The elder at the door took it seriously and was about to break in.
Xu Huaigu was amazed in his heart. This person was really brave. With the crime of breaking into the Patriarch Hall without permission, if the gatekeeper elder was more ruthless, it would not be wrong to kill her on the spot. After all, there are hundreds of natal soul lamps protected there. If something goes wrong, the Fuyao Sect will lose most of its combat power.
Look at the appearance of the gatekeeper elder, he is an upright person who hates evil as much as he hates it. Seeing that this woman was arrogant and unreasonable, and was about to break into the Patriarch Hall, he immediately raised his eyebrows, and the long sword in the sheath quickly popped out like a snake attacking someone, and he struck her with the sword without showing any mercy.
The elder's actions also shocked Xu Huaigu. He even wanted to kill him without asking. Xu Huaigu asserted that he definitely did not have the courage.
The woman seemed to have never thought that anyone would dare to stop her, let alone that an elder would use a sword to kill her. She was so frightened that she stopped and froze in place, looking at the sword pointed at her in horror. Cut it yourself.
At this moment when everyone in the audience was trembling, a golden talisman suddenly flew out of the woods behind the woman, met the sword's edge, and blocked the fatal sword strike for the woman.
Then, an old Taoist priest in white robes frowned and walked out of the woods angrily. He cursed at the elder who drew the sword: "Do you know who is in front of you, and you dare to kill him? What if? If something happens to her, you will be the one to look after her!"
The elder who drew the sword looked upright and said in a serious manner: "According to the rules, breaking into the sect's ancestral hall without permission will result in death. I am not at fault in drawing the sword. Even the current princess is no exception."
The old Taoist priest was so angry that he threw his fly whisk, pointed at his nose and cursed: "Thank you for knowing that this is Her Highness the Princess! Why don't you just stop her? Why do you insist on killing someone!"
The elder still refused to give in and said: "According to the sect's rules, she is going to die. If I stop her from killing her, then if a disciple breaks this rule next time, how can the law convince everyone?"
The old Taoist priest looked at him fiercely, his teeth chattering and said: "Your Highness, I tried to persuade you in every possible way but you refused to listen. You insist on going to the Patriarch's Hall, and there are no rules at all. This is a good time. You are making fun of others. Come on!"
Chu Xiuyang grew up in the palace, with fine clothes and fine food, and everyone had to be polite to her, so she developed a spoiled temper. Who would have thought that tonight, someone would dare to kill her with a sword like this.
After all, she was only nineteen years old. Once she walked near the gate of hell, she was so frightened that she lost her soul. Her face was pale and she couldn't say a word.
The old Taoist priest stepped forward angrily and grabbed her sleeves, saying, "Let's go!"
Chu Xiuyang was so aggrieved that she burst into tears all of a sudden. She stood there and refused to leave, crying sadly: "Did I make a big mistake and someone wants to kill me? Wow?"
Wuwu... I just saw how pitiful that woman was and wanted to find an explanation for her. Your Fuyao Sect is going to kill me. You are such a big sect that can cover the sky with one hand! Wuwuwu..."
Xu Huaigu and the women who had returned from bathing all stopped to watch. Although Xu Huaigu felt that the elder was too cruel, he also thought that what he said made sense, and the women around him were also chattering. Some said that the elder was too harsh, while others said that Chu Xiuyang deserved it.
Chu Xiuyang was crying, her eyes blurred with tears, but suddenly she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure among the watching crowd. She quickly wiped away her tears and saw clearly that it was Xu Huaigu. She cried and begged: "Brother Yu, come here Commentary, the woman who has been kneeling under the plaque today is not pitiful. Should the Fuyao Sect give an explanation?"
Now all the eyes of the audience were focused on him again.
Xu Huaigu scratched his head. Did this guy just drag him into the water? He even called him Brother Yu affectionately. If this spread to other people's ears and then heard by Yu Qin, how would it be okay?
Xu Huaigu was so happy that he smiled and said with a playful face: "Girl, do we know each other? You must have mistaken the person, not to mention my surname is Xu, not Yu. Otherwise, you can ask Yin Zishi, and he will know me My surname is Xu."
It was very dark, she had just cried, and her eyesight was still blurry. Chu Xiuyang really thought she had made a mistake, so she ran to him, looked at him carefully, and cried "Wow" again. Even more powerful, he said: "What's Yin or what's real? It's obviously you!"
I was still with you this morning, and now you say you don’t know me, what a liar! "
She cried, made trouble, and hung herself. She didn't care about anything and simply raised her fist to hit him.
The little girl was crying so hard that she couldn't use her fists hard. She knocked several times, but it didn't hurt at all. In the eyes of others, she seemed to be flirting with Xu Huaigu. People around them suddenly looked at them. There was a smile in his eyes.
Chu Xiuyang would think that he had recognized the wrong person, but the old Taoist priest in white robes would not. He could tell at a glance that it was Xu Huaigu. At this time, he saw Chu Xiuyang rolling around in front of him. It really lacked the majesty of the royal family, so he He strode forward and advised: "Your Highness, please respect yourself and come back with me as soon as possible!"
Chu Xiuyang turned around and shouted at the old Taoist priest: "Why don't you respect yourself? I'm crying like this, and you still speak for outsiders! Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...I will definitely report you to my father when I turn around!"
The old Taoist priest grimaced and shook his head, feeling helpless.
She suddenly turned to look at Xu Huaigu, with tears in her eyes, and said seriously: "I tell you, that man named Jiang Linyang is a heartless man. He gave the woman money and wanted to send her back. She has no thoughts in her heart while living. , What’s the use of that money? No one from the Fuyao Sect will stand up for her, she’s on the cliff now, looking for death!”
Chu Xiuyang turned around suddenly, pointed angrily at the crowd watching around him, and cursed while pointing: "If that woman dies, you, you, and you! They are all the ones who killed her! Do you have any conscience? Won’t it hurt?”
"You can have a clear conscience by just standing by and watching! You immortal monks can do it, but I, Chu Xiuyang, can't!"
Xu Huaigu looked at her in astonishment.
What a good person with a clear conscience.
After she finished cursing, she rolled her sleeves angrily, turned around and walked down the mountain, saying, "Let's go!"
Chu Xiuyang followed the old Taoist priest and hurriedly left Changyue Peak, where the Ancestral Master Hall was located, and hid in the night.
