Chapter 80: Temporarily reunited before the flowers and under the moon
While Zhong Lingxi was thinking alone, the two teams were gradually approaching the black shadow. As Wu Li said, it was an abandoned pavilion. Judging from the difference between the style and the current architectural style, it is also different from that of other countries in the Western Regions. Everyone was very surprised when it suddenly appeared on the second floor of the Sword Tomb.
However, no one took the next step at this time, but looked at Zhong Lingxi in the middle of the team.
The girl naturally knew the reason when she saw the crowd. Next, she would enter these ruins to explore. Although the second floor of the Sword Tomb had been explored many times by disciples of the Qingyun Sect, there was no guarantee that there would be any omissions. In the past, when exploring ancient secret realms, It is this kind of ruins that tends to yield some good things.
Although the two teams are acting together at this time, they each have their own thoughts. After all, they are in a competitive relationship, and their temporary cooperation is forced out of necessity. Once the interests are in front of them, allies must guard against each other, let alone competing enemies.
"Since there are no large-scale Bemos here, we can act separately. In this case, our efficiency will be higher." The first person to break the deadlock was not Wu Hao, who had been pretending to be calm, but the Three young men from other sects.
They said to Zhong Lingxi bravely. The girl glanced at them in surprise, and she also had some guesses in her mind. It seemed that these three people not only wanted to win the contest to recruit a bride, but also gained something from this trip to the secret realm, which was also important to them. One of the goals.
Seeing Zhong Lingxi looking at him, Yuan Chong, Wang Chun, and Liu Yuan who were speaking looked at each other and lowered their heads in embarrassment. But their eyes were dodging, and they glanced at Wu Hao aside intentionally or unintentionally.
Finding something unusual about them, Zhong Lingxi, who had a strong sixth sense, instantly caught something unusual. She knew that these three people were actually afraid of Wu Hao and Luo Yunzong behind him. When they entered the secret realm of Sword Tomb before, the three of them ignored Wu Hao's hint and did not give up any position in their group for their own reasons.
But afterwards, the three of them were secretly upset. It was indeed unwise to attack Luo Yunzong so directly. On the way to explore the second floor of the Sword Tomb just now, Wu Hao quietly communicated with these three people. As for the content, it was naturally a coercion and inducement.
A flash of understanding flashed in Zhong Lingxi's eyes. Although she didn't know what Wu Hao said to these three people, there must be the shadow of the young man in white behind this matter.
"Okay! It's good to split up. Let's separate for now and explore this huge building complex first." The person who spoke this time was Yi Xifeng with a playful look on his face. He had participated in all the battles since he entered the Sword Tomb, and the battle rhythm along the way was excellent, and he had never seen any mistakes.
This has to make a group of young people in the chivalrous realm look at him differently. After all, he is only half a step into the chivalrous realm at this time. In this ancient secret realm where the rules of the world are different from those of the outside world, this kind of difficulty is difficult for Yi Xifeng. It's quite big.
Seeing that Yi Xifeng had come forward to agree, Zhong Lingxi naturally had no objection. The two teams separated again and each found a direction to move forward.
…………Dividing line…………
While the thirteen of them were exploring the ruins on the second floor of the Sword Tomb, on Mount Tianzhu, the onlookers were also looking at the image on the stone slab.
More than six hours have passed since this group of people entered the spring. It was already dark, and the number of people watching in the square had also changed several times.
Feng Huzi was sitting cross-legged on the high platform of Wujianping. It was unclear how he controlled the Bagua realm. The copper-yellow mirror was set on the mountain wall on one side, and a blue light beam was projected on Wujianping. On the bluestone board, it was already dark, which made the picture clearer.
There is also a girl standing next to Feng Huzi. She has never left here. She is wearing a long cyan dress, which is the same as other female disciples of the Qingyun Sect. However, the girl's exquisite and beautiful face, coupled with His light and refined temperament makes it difficult not to become the focus of people.
Since he has become the focus of everyone, and the people watching the blind date competition this time are young people from all over the county, it is natural for someone to come forward and strike up a conversation.
It's just that these young talents may have a certain sense of superiority in daily life, or they may focus most of their energy on martial arts practice. They really lack the skills to strike up a conversation, and they don't even have the foresight!
A young man wearing a black gown straightened his clothes and strode towards the beautiful girl. However, he encountered a resistance less than a foot away from her.
He didn't know what the resistance was, but with a little bit of inner strength, he broke free from the shackles of the resistance and successfully approached the opponent.
"I dare to ask if the girl is still here late at night. I have been standing aside for a long time. I came here..."
Before he could finish speaking, there was a "bang" sound, and the young man in black was blown away! A stone pillar as thick as a wrist and more than two meters high suddenly appeared from the ground. The young man couldn't dodge, and was hit directly on the chin, and his whole body was knocked away.
This stone pillar was completely black and inconspicuous in the dark night, but the battle it caused had to attract people's attention.
This beautiful girl didn't even look back, still staring at the image on the stone slab at her feet.
On the other hand, Feng Huzi, who was sitting on the high platform meditating with his eyes closed, opened his eyes, glanced down at her, and said calmly: "Xintian, it's so late, let's go back and have a rest first. Even after they finish exploring the second floor, You won’t be able to enter the third level until tomorrow!”
It turns out that the beautiful girl who just knocked the young man in black away is Li Xintian who has been waiting here.
This time, she did not remain silent, but raised her head to look at the mountain master of Tianzhu Peak. He whispered: "Elder Feng, Xintian wants to enter the secret realm of Sword Tomb!"
She said these words very softly, but very firmly.
When the old man heard this, he paused for a moment and said with a wry smile: "Hey, in fact, according to your cultivation level, it's okay to enter this sword tomb to experience it. It's just... the head brother has told me that you can't enter this time. .”
Li Xintian stared at Feng Huzi, who was above him, without saying a word or retorting. After a while, she turned around silently and left the Sword Dance Ping and Mount Everest.
…
Just as the girl left here, a gaze followed her figure and disappeared to Mount Everest. However, the disappearance of the owner of this gaze did not attract Li Xintian's attention, and even Feng Huzi, who was sitting at the top, did not notice this person's existence.
After all, the owner of this gaze looks so ordinary. He is wearing a blue robe and looks like a small businessman who is not wealthy. Moreover, he is not a handsome young man with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, but a middle-aged man who is nearly fifty years old. Han people.
It was the middle-aged man who appeared at Jiuhua Tower in Qingyun City last night. At that time, he bluntly said that the drinks at Jiuhua Tower were not good, but he aroused everyone's ridicule. However, he did not pay attention to this and walked away as usual. Of course, the words on the lips are still the same as "Qin, sword, calligraphy, chess, poetry and wine".
At this time, the middle-aged man still left alone. The difference was that no one around him noticed him. Even if he walked down the mountain road, he would meet many young people who climbed to the peak to watch the battle. These people seemed to have subconsciously ignored him. Normally, walk past him quickly.
"We meet temporarily in front of flowers and under the moon. Bitterness and hatred prevent us from taking it easy. What's more, when we wake up from wine, our dreams are broken, and the flowers fade and the moon is hazy."
There was still no one around to notice this middle-aged man in a blue robe, but he did not stop and still walked resolutely down the mountain.
"The flowers are endless, the moon is endless, and the two hearts are united. At this time, I am willing to do it, and the thousands of willow threads will trip up the spring breeze."
As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of mountain wind suddenly blew up, and everyone on the way up the mountain couldn't help but raise their hands to cover themselves. However, after only a moment, the mountain wind died down.
And the figure of this middle-aged man also disappeared without a trace.
Feng Huzi, who was a hundred feet away, frowned slightly, looked at the horizon in the distance, and murmured to himself: "This mountain wind is a little unusual!"
After saying that, he shook his head, closed his eyes and continued to meditate on the high platform.
…………Dividing line…………
Li Xintian was walking alone on the mountain path of the Qingyun Sect. She saw that this road led to Qingyun Peak. She did not use her skills, but walked forward step by step because she was not in a hurry. To be precise, she was not in a hurry. no way.
The girl knows her master's temper better than anyone else. Once it is something he is sure of, no one can change it. Therefore, she was not in a hurry to rush to Qingyun Palace, otherwise she would definitely move forward at full speed like Zhong Lingxi and Su Xiaoxian.
As the stone steps under my feet sloped down one by one, they were now going up one by one. Even if she could not speed up, after this period of time, she had already entered the mountain path of Qingyun Peak, and the next journey was not down the mountain but climbing.
But she still hadn't thought of a way.
"If you really want to get in there, I can help you!" A cold voice suddenly sounded from behind Li Xintian. As soon as she finished speaking, a huge stone thorn as thick as the mouth of a bowl rose up from behind her. The pitch-black stone thorn was more than three feet long, and the tip was extremely sharp, making it look very ferocious!
"Little girl, you have a bad temper. You have to change it!" A chuckle came. It was obvious that Li Xintian's attack just now did not hit the opponent.
Li Xintian didn't talk nonsense, she was running wildly with the inner energy all over her body, and the dark inner energy brought by the Xuankun Qi Control Technique also wandered around her!
In the past five years, she has upgraded the original "Thick Earth Qi Control Technique" to the "Xuankun Qi Control Technique", of which no more than three people in the entire Qingyun Sect know the details. And the middle-aged man in front of her was indeed worthy of her efforts.
Snapped!
There was a sound of snapping fingers, and a spherical blue cover instantly enveloped Li Xintian, which turned out to be a barrier.
The girl realized that the strength of the person in front of her was far beyond her own, and judging from the previous performances, the other person did not have much ill intentions, at least he could still talk about it.
"Who are you?" Li Xintian asked softly. Although the girl was at an absolute disadvantage at this time, there was no trace of panic in her tone.
"Haha, you should know that you won't get an answer if you ask this question." The voice replied again, but judging from the sound, it should be a middle-aged man.
The two fell into silence again. Li Xintian knew that what the other party said was correct, but he still did not follow the other party's script. Because she knew very well that she was completely overwhelmed by the other party in terms of martial arts, but even so, she had to maintain sufficient awareness of autonomy when it came to communication.
Otherwise, it will be extremely troublesome later.
The middle-aged man waited for a long time, and when he saw that the other party did not speak, he said: "If you really want to enter the Sword Tomb, I can help you!" He repeated the previous conversation again.
Li Xintian thought for a moment and then continued: "Who are you?"
The two fell into silence again. The man was surprised that the little girl in front of him was so stubborn!
"This question is meaningless. You have to know that I can wipe you out of this world with a raise of my hand!" Apparently he also discovered that normal communication could no longer obtain more valuable information from the other party. So the middle-aged man decided to put some pressure on her.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, the girl's brows wrinkled slightly, as if she was weighing the pros and cons, and then she solemnly asked: "Okay, let me change the question."
A smile appeared on the corner of the middle-aged man's mouth, and he thought to himself: Sure enough, the little girl can't just coax her.
"Then who was controlling me?" It was still Li Xintian's soft voice, but when these words fell in the middle-aged man's ears, he couldn't laugh anymore.
"You can call me, Mr. Han!"
Li Xintian: "..."
"I'll ask you again! Do you want to enter the secret realm?"
Li Xintian: "Think!"
Mr. Han, who was wearing a blue robe, nodded and said, "Make a deal with me, I can send you in!"
The girl looked at the blue covers around her and said solemnly: "If you want to make a deal, just show up first!"
After about three breaths, Mr. Han continued: "Okay."
But this time it came from behind Li Xintian. She subconsciously looked back and saw a middle-aged man standing less than a foot behind her, it was Mr. Han.
Li Xintian naturally looked up and down, Mr. Han, who was a bit powerful. Unfortunately, there was no information about this person in her memory, and she was certain that she did not know the person in front of her.
"If I don't agree to make a deal with you, will I die?" the girl asked in a low voice.
Mr. Han stared at the girl in front of him and said with a smile: "Of course, both parties need to be willing to make a deal. If the other party's life is threatened, this is not a deal, but a naked robbery!"
"Oh, if that's the case, then I won't do it!" Li Xintian replied readily.
Mr. Han smiled and waved his hand, signaling the girl to calm down. He continued: "It is naturally not advisable to threaten your life. Of course, if you are unwilling to trade, there is nothing you can do. After all, everything in the world is not always as you wish. ah!"
At this point, he sighed: "So it is inevitable that I will be unhappy! And once I am unhappy, I like to kill people!"
As he spoke, he lowered his body and lowered his voice and said, "If you don't cooperate with me, I will kill that boy named Li Nian!"
