Approaching Weicheng, Lin Ji saw a uniform cavalry galloping in the distance, but the man at the head looked familiar.
Then he fell back to the ground and met him in the road.
The horse team was eight rows abreast, with their hooves in one place and the horses' ears level.
A total of eight hundred horses galloped all the way, and they landed with the same sound, without any noise.
Each of the horses was more than ten feet tall, covered with armor, and shone in the cold light of the stars and the moon.
There is also a three-foot golden horn on the horse's head, which is very elegant.
The knights on horseback have long swords hanging on their waists and huge bows on their backs. Each of them holds a long crescent moon sword. They all have tall and straight postures and handsome faces.
Eight hundred blood-red cloaks fluttered in the wind and made a fierce sound.
There is a giant flag with spears and halberds intersecting on it, with a large character embroidered underneath it: "Chu"
"Hush!"
As he approached, Chu Weiyang suddenly reined in the horse's head.
Uh-huh!
At the same moment, the eight-hundred-strong cavalry that came running stopped at the same time, and there was no sound between the people and the horse.
Lin Ji couldn't help but secretly sigh: This Mingguang Mansion is worthy of being the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Expedition back then, and it can still be so disciplined even today!
"Brother Chu." Lin Ji took a step forward and cupped his hands and said, "With such preparation and speed, where do you want to go? Could there be another demon causing chaos?"
Chu Weiyang, who was wearing armor and stomach, punched the military salute carefully, and then said: "That day, I chased the White Elephant King for three thousand miles. After no success, I returned to the teacher's gate and received the order, saying that there was a chaos in Yunzhou. The mirage wall is in danger, so I urgently led eight hundred disciples to rush thousands of miles to help."
"There is chaos in Yunzhou?" Lin Ji thought to himself: "What does it have to do with your Mingguang Mansion whether Yunzhou is in chaos or not? Aren't you just like Jindingshan, who never leave Xuzhou and don't care about worldly affairs? Why are you so willing to do it all of a sudden? How can we send so many elite disciples at the same time?"
"Yes!" Chu Weiyang nodded and didn't want to say more, adding a bit of determination to his already rough face, "It's urgent so I can't say more! Brother Lin, I heard that you are getting married in a few days, then Leave me a glass of wine and drink together when I triumph!"
Saying this, he bowed again and galloped wildly.
The eight hundred divine horses roared together, followed closely behind, whistling like the wind and disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"What a weird thing!" Lin Ji shook his head slightly and said in confusion, "First Yangzhou, then Xuzhou, Yunzhou should have ended the war after the Changsheng Palace overthrew the Qin Dynasty, but why did it happen again not long after? Chaos arose? Could it be that the five turbidities are really causing chaos?"
"That's not right!" Lin Ji thought for a moment and said, "If the world is really in chaos, the whole world should be in chaos. My father-in-law came all the way from Xiangzhou and didn't mention it, and he even wanted to take me back to get married. It seems that Xiangzhou is It’s okay. And Yangzhou is in the south, Xuzhou is in the east, and Yunzhou is in the north. If you think about it, they are all borders! Could it be that...it is outside Jiuzhou..."
Lin Ji walked along the official road towards Weicheng while recalling the map of the Nine States of the World that he had seen at Lu Guangmu's place.
As I was walking, I suddenly felt a few familiar consciousnesses coming from far behind me.
As the sound of horse hooves got louder and louder, the consciousness got closer and closer.
Then, I heard someone talking a hundred feet away.
"What happened next?"
"Later... I don't know anymore. You have to ask him yourself. Huh? That's not the boss... No, no! The boss's hair is white."
As soon as Lin Ji heard the voices of these two people, he knew who was behind him without turning around or searching with his spiritual sense.
One is Geng Ran, the senior sister of Sansheng Cave, and the other is Lu Cong.
Lin Ji stood still, turned around and said with a smile: "Junior sister Geng, you're fine!"
"Ah, he is really the boss!" Lu Cong raised his whip and urged his horse.
Geng Ran abandoned his horse and flew towards him. He smiled slightly and said, "It's been a long time since we last seen each other! I came here to have a wedding drink!" Then his face became serious again, and he bowed and saluted, "Fellow Taoist Lin has achieved great success, and it's a good time for you to get married. What a double blessing! Congratulations!"
Lin Ji also hurriedly returned the gift solemnly: "Thank you, Junior Sister Geng."
The two of them didn't fly or ride horses, they just walked and talked.
Lu Cong, who was lagging behind, and the Weicheng disciples and Sanshengdong disciples who were catching up had no choice but to dismount and follow behind.
Geng Ran frowned, turned around and said, "Brother Lu, it was very hard for us to come all the way from Xiangzhou to sleep in the wind. Please take them back to the city to rest first."
Lu Cong was stunned for a moment, then said straight to his heart: "Okay, I'll have someone take them back first, and I'll accompany you..."
Before he finished speaking, Lin Ji glared at him and quickly changed his words: "I'll have a drink with you!" He raised his hand and said, "Let's go, brothers, get on your horse and go to the city!"
When everyone roared away, Lin Ji deliberately slowed down a bit. He knew that Geng Ran had something to say to him alone.
Sure enough, Geng Ran glanced at Lin Ji solemnly and said, "I came to Xuzhou this time. Firstly, I am here to congratulate you on your big day, and I am an old friend. Secondly, I have asked you to do something for me."
"Oh? Please speak." Lin Ji said seriously.
"After receiving the invitation from the Zhong family, I found out that the groom is you. The two holy masters, the Heavenly Saint and the Earthly Saint, knew that you and I were friends, so they specially sent me to the cave. Let me intercede for something. After the death of the saints of the previous generation, he The sword of inheritance is missing."
Lin Ji paused for a moment and said, "This matter has nothing to do with me. I fought hard with Bai Xiao that day, and we both suffered losses. I was unable to care about anything else, and I never saw the Sword of the Human Saint."
Geng Ran shook his head: "It's not that I suspect you took it, but... only you can find it."
"The sword of the human saint is the same as the body sword. Those who have mastered the sword of sacrificing their lives can be connected with the sword and feel each other. The two saints of heaven and earth are not practicing swordsmanship, and their disciples... Hey! Don't say In the Three Saints Cave, even if we look at all the nine states, you are the only one who has mastered the sword of sacrifice. In other words, only you can find the Sword of the Human Saint."
"And this sword is extremely important to our Three Saints Cave. It is also the foundation of our sect!"
"It is said that a long time ago, an unparalleled great master refined a total of four swords, named Heaven, Earth, Man, and Dao. That great master took away the strongest Dao sword on his own, and the other three The handles are the three swords of heaven, earth and man left in the holy cave."
Hearing this, Lin Ji couldn't help but thought to himself: "Come to think of it, the unparalleled power that Geng Ran mentioned should be the Holy Emperor! Previously, Lu Guangmu said that the Three Holy Cave was originally the place where the Holy Emperor practiced meditation. . That Dao sword should have disappeared at the same time as the Holy Emperor."
Geng Ran paused and continued: "Originally, although the loss of the human sword caused a lot of losses to the Sansheng Cave, after all, it lost a line of inheritance. But it is not that big of a deal. According to the investigation of the old man Tiansheng, that sword Not only was the human sword taken away, but it was also being refined with evil methods. As a result, the heaven and earth swords were also damaged, and the luck of the Three Saint Cave gradually declined. The cultivation of all disciples also It will stagnate. If things go on like this, within a few generations, it will become a small sect, and will eventually be annexed and extinct."

"Brother Lin Dao, I pray for the two holy masters and even the thousand-year inheritance of the Three Holy Cave!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Geng Ran knelt down in front of Lin Ji.
