Nan Dao stood outside the flower garden, quietly watching the fallen flowers go away.
Not just South Island, many people have seen it.
When those fallen flowers flew away, the sword light on the top of the green mountain had disappeared.
So what does this mean?
When the sword light disappeared, the Sword Sect brothers returned to the edge of Daze, and then came towards the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.
Nan Dao was caught off guard when he saw so many Sword Sect brothers and seemed a little cautious. After all, they were not Zhang Xiaoyu.
"I've met all of you senior brothers."
Nan Dao held the umbrella and bowed.
The senior brothers looked at the young man holding the black umbrella strangely.
"Are you Nan Dao? What are you doing here?"
A senior brother recognized Nan Dao and asked in confusion.
Nan Dao hesitated for a while and said: "I went out of the city and came here last night and saw a flower grower here. I saw those sword lights earlier and thought it might be him, so I thought about coming over to have a look."
The senior brothers were silent for a while, looking at the withered flowers on the ground without saying anything else.
Nan Dao looked at the senior brothers for a long time, thought for a while and asked, "So what's the result over there?"
Someone forced a smile and said, "Maybe I won."
When Nan Dao saw this smile, he knew that he had probably lost.
So the old man is dead?
Nan Dao sighed, bowed to the senior brothers again, and then held an umbrella and headed towards Nanyi City.
A group of senior brothers stood quietly outside the small courtyard and looked at Daze Qingshan.
"Where are Mei Quming and the others?"
"Should be back soon."
All the senior brothers looked at the vast green mountains.
A senior swordsman from the past who no one knew took action.
Perhaps it was because of what Mei Quming and the others discovered.
It wasn't until a long time later that two injured figures walked out from the foot of the green mountain.
A group of senior brothers turned into sword lights and fell there.
"What did you encounter?"
Mei Quming was silent for a while and said slowly: "Young master is not sad."
Although the matter of Young Master Wubei becoming a spirit wizard is not considered a secret in the human world, it is naturally a bit strange to these senior brothers who have not been involved in worldly affairs for a long time.
Nan Dequ briefly talked about Gongzi Wubei.
Only then did everyone understand what happened.
Looking at the green mountains of Daze, the clouds and mist are shrouded, and the mountains are covering up, so nothing can be seen.
Just being a young master without sorrow is nothing.
But the problem is that Gongzi Wubei is just the one who came first, and it is still unknown what will come from Daze later.
Mei Quming remembered the witch mark formation he saw at the beginning, and said solemnly: "Earlier on the top of those green mountains, Senior Brother Dequ and I saw a rather strange formation. The witch marks that go beyond ghost magic The landing point is very similar, if I guess correctly, it may be a large formation across the line!"
"Jiexing Grand Formation?"
A senior brother frowned.
A senior brother who knew about this formation explained on the side: "It should be a formation created by Yuan Zhengui Si. It is the same as the over-traveling technique, but it can carry out large-scale teleportation."
Everyone looked at the green mountain in surprise.
"So, the people from Huangliang came across the swamp much faster than we thought."
"It might even be here already."
"The question is how many people are coming?"
Everyone looked at Daze Qingshan solemnly.
"Any number of people can come." Nan Dequ said softly, "Even the ancient Wushan Mountain has reappeared in the world, so it naturally represents the revival of the Wugui Sect. What we may have to face is the entire Wugui Dao people .”
"Is Huang Liang really crazy?"
"It is not Huang Liang who is crazy, but those who have devout faith in ghosts and gods."
Everyone fell silent.
"Going into the mountains?"
A senior brother asked, holding his sword.
Nan Dequ was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "You can set up a defense line on the outside. This Dazeqingshan is too big. If you venture deep, you may get lost in it. If the situation is not right, just retreat to Nanyi City. Chen Huaifeng should If he can see the scene here, he should activate the Nanyi City Formation by then."
Qu Shaming nodded and turned into sword light and headed towards the Lingnan sword cultivators.
"What about us?"
The remaining senior brothers asked.
Nan Dequ was silent for a long time, looked at Daze and said: "Go deep into Daze and find the location of the Wuhen Formation."
All the Sword Sect brothers nodded.
Naturally, we cannot sit still and wait for death.
"Young Master Wubei must have suffered some injuries." Mei Quming said slowly, "But there may be other people in the mountains, so try not to use sword light when traveling."
Although the sword light is fast, it is too ostentatious. If there are really many people in Qingshan, they will inevitably become living targets.
All the senior brothers gathered their sword intent and headed towards Qingshan with their swords in hand.
Nan Dequ and Mei Quming suffered some injuries and did not go with everyone. Instead, they turned into sword light and headed towards Nanyi City.
When he returned to Nanyi City, Zhang Xiaoyu was still sitting bored on the top of the city, and Nan Dao, the young man holding an umbrella, was probably walking in the green hills outside the city.
Seeing the arrival of the two senior brothers, Zhang Xiaoyu hurriedly asked: "What happened over there?"
Mei Quming told Zhang Xiaoyu what they had experienced before.
Zhang Xiaoyu said thoughtfully: "So there really is such a senior brother?"
"Of course there are senior brothers, but I don't know where they are scattered in the world." Mei Quming said slowly.
Zhang Xiaoyu also sighed, then looked at the wounds on the two senior brothers and said, "Senior brothers, they are not seriously injured."
Nan Dequ shook his head and said: "Fortunately, since Hua Wubei has become a spiritual witch, he will naturally not be so shameless and really kill him."
Zhang Xiaoyu felt relieved a little.
The two senior brothers sat down cross-legged on top of the city. Although they were not seriously injured, they still needed to take a good rest.
After a long time, the boy holding an umbrella finally appeared outside the city.
Nan Dao returned to the top of the city and discovered that two Sword Sect brothers were also here. They just looked like they were sitting quietly surrounded by swords. They must be recuperating from their injuries. Nan Dao did not disturb them and walked around from the side. He went over and stopped next to Zhang Xiaoyu.
I originally wanted to tell Zhang Xiaoyu what I saw earlier, but after meeting the two senior brothers, I probably guessed that Zhang Xiaoyu should already know.
So I kept sighing on the side.
Zhang Xiaoyu looked at Nan Dao strangely and asked, "Why are you sighing?"
Nan Dao said slowly: "I'm wondering if Nanyi City can win."
The senior brothers are all dead, so it seems that Nanyi City is naturally in danger.
Zhang Xiaoyu naturally knew the outcome of the battle over there, but he was not as discouraged as Nan Dao. He patted Nan Dao on the shoulder and said, "First of all, you need to know that Dao Cultivator is not completely invincible."
Nan Dao tilted his head and looked at Zhang Xiaoyu and asked, "What do you mean?"
Zhang Xiaoyu looked at the many sword cultivators beside Daze and said softly: "Compared with an ordinary Dao cultivator, the Eighty Thousand Sword Cultivator is naturally more powerful."
"What is the general cultivation of the Great Dao?"
Zhang Xiaoyu thought for a moment and said, "It's probably the realm of the Great Dao other than people like Master."
Nan Dao understood something.
"So no matter how powerful you make Young Master Wubei, he will not really dare to face the 80,000 sword cultivators in Lingnan alone." Zhang Xiaoyu said calmly. "Although it is a bit risky to push Lingnan sword cultivators into the swamp, it can actually be regarded as a dragging technique."
"Eighty thousand sword cultivators are blocked at the edge of Daze, so they have to think carefully about it."
Nan Dao listened quietly, looked outside Nanyi City, remained silent for a while, and said, "What if they are really crazy?"
Zhang Xiaoyu also fell silent and said softly: "I don't know."
Eighty thousand sword cultivators can naturally be extremely effective in slowing down Wugui Taoist's approach to Nanyi City.
But in other words, this also comes at a very heavy price.
Nan Dao turned to look at the top of the city. There were not many sword cultivators here anymore.
Even the female swordsman who had harassed him repeatedly before was no longer on top of the city.
They have probably already reached the edge of Daze, standing on the edge of the green mountains, preparing for the first war between the two sides of Daze in thousands of years.
But there seems to be nothing good to say in this world.
Naturally, everyone saw the sword light heading towards the green mountains.
Nan Dao raised his head and looked at the center of the distant ancient mountains, looking at the solitary peak guarded by thousands of mountains.
What's there?
In other words, what caused the great swamp, which had been peaceful for thousands of years, to stir up trouble again?
Nan Dao didn’t know.
In this story, he is a small person just like those Lingnan sword cultivators.
The sword has been worn, and I have seen the world, but I am still not qualified to take the stage.
Just a small group of people watching from the audience.
Nan Dao was silent for a long time at the top of the city with the Peach Blossom Sword on his back.
The feat of 80,000 sword cultivators coming down from the mountain for the sake of the human world is naturally worthy of admiration.
Nan Dao felt that he should not have such courage.
So he hesitated at the top of the city.
Zhang Xiaoyu patted Nan Dao on the shoulder and said with a smile, "What are you thinking, junior brother?"
Nan Dao was silent for a while and said softly: "I just suddenly discovered that those sword cultivators in Lingnan are actually much braver than many people in the world."
Zhang Xiaoyu then understood where Nan Dao's silence came from. He put his arms around Nan Dao's neck, just like when they first met, and said with a smile: "Junior brother feels that he does not have the courage to go like them." Over there in Daze?"
Nan Dao sighed and said, "Yes."
Zhang Xiaoyu smiled slightly and said: "When people face things they have never experienced before, they will hesitate. This is human nature. Junior brother, there is no need to feel how unbearable he is. The reason why Lingnan Sword Cultivator is like this is Because they have been responsible for maintaining stability in the north and south of Fengqi Mountains for thousands of years. Although the world can often only see the influence of the Human Sword Sect on the south of Huai'an, the contribution of the Lingnan Sword Sect to this land is also indelible. .”
Nan Dao listened quietly and turned to look at this senior brother who was obviously addicted to playing cards but seemed to know everything.
Zhang Xiaoyu continued: "Junior brother, you have only been in this world for a short time. When you slowly find a lot of things worth loving in the future, you will naturally have the same courage as those people. Last night you were in the tomb Isn't that what happened when Shan Shang drew his sword against Senior Brother Huai Feng?"
Nan Dao fell silent.
Then asked a question.
"So where's Scrat?"
Zhang Xiaoyu said with a slight smile: "Jian Zong is not an executioner who likes to kill people. Liu Sanyue did die in the hands of Senior Brother Huai Feng, but that was forced by the situation. In other words, the whole north was just sitting back and watching. The result of the investigation. As for Shushu, you can go look for her on the Nanyi River, maybe she’s not awake yet.”
Nan Dao turned around, smiled bitterly and said, "You guys make me look stupid."
"It's understandable for a fifteen-year-old boy to stay a little longer." Zhang Xiaoyu said softly, not knowing whether he was thinking of his own fifteen years old or someone else's fifteen years old.
Nan Dao felt that although this sentence seemed to be comforting, it always made people feel a little hurt.
Zhang Xiaoyu let go of Nan Dao's neck, stood at the top of the city holding Yingyingzhou, and said softly: "Junior brother, do you want to stay and see?"
Nan Dao was silent for a long time and said slowly: "I don't know. When I first saw those sword lights on the horizon, I was really tempted, but when I turned around, the owner of the sword lights seemed to be dead, so I hesitated again."
Nan Dao said, but he tilted his head and thought for a long time: "I seem to remember that in my memory, I should have said that I am not afraid of death, but after sleeping last time, I always felt that I had forgotten a lot of things , I can’t remember why I wasn’t afraid of death in the first place, so now I’m a little bit afraid of death.”
Zhang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "There is something wrong with people who are not afraid of death. It is normal to be afraid of death. My master is actually afraid of death, otherwise he would not choose to turn into a demon and live in the world shamelessly for a thousand years. "
Nandao: "..."
Zhang Xiaoyu, you are so naughty, does Cong Ren know?
Nan Dao really wanted to ask, but in the end he didn't ask.
"In other words, it's just a choice." Zhang Xiaoyu looked into the distance and said softly, "Depends on whether some things are worth gambling with your life."
"Like Liu Sanyue?"
Zhang Xiaoyu was silent for a while, thinking about this friend from long ago, nodded, and said, "Yes."
Nan Dao thought about the scattered stories he had heard about Liu Sanyue, sat down on the top of the city, and said softly: "Then let me take a look."
...
Chen He returned to Xuanxuyuan with sighs in three steps, thinking of going to Jingsi Lake to find some grass to chat with the fireflies, but he saw Yunhu Bubu in the corridor of the magnolia forest.
It is indeed impossible for this great master of Qingniuyuan who only cultivates his mind but not his body to go to the green mountains outside the city.
Unexpectedly, Yun Hu was reading a book when he heard Chen He sighing. He raised his head and looked at him and asked, "What are you sighing for?"
Chen He sat down next to Yun Huzhi and said with a sad face: "There has been a fight outside Nanyi City. I must sigh a little to feel better."
Yun Hu didn't seem to know these things. He looked at Chen He strangely and said, "Have the Taoist witches and ghosts from Huangliang come over?"
Chen He thought for a moment and said, "That's probably true. Didn't you see Mr. Jianguang's buzzing swords on the horizon earlier?"
Yun Huzi scratched his head and said, "I don't know. After all, I can't help like other gentlemen."
"Oh." Chen He thought that Yun Hu did not know what he thought, but suddenly he remembered something and looked at Yun Hu Wenzhidao with a strange expression.
"Sir, should you be from Huangliang?"
Yunhu nodded and said, "Yes."
Then I saw Chen He hesitating there, as if he wanted to say something, but felt it was difficult to say it.
Yun Huzi smiled and said, "What do you want to say about my position?"
Chen He smiled sheepishly.
Yun Huzhi chuckled and said: "To be precise, Master Qing and I are actually from the Huai'an Avenue. I have some guesses about the origin of this war, but I am not sure, but it is definitely inseparable. The sect of witches, ghosts and gods. Not to mention that they have different teachings and do not conspire against each other."
Yun Huzhidao paused, sat in the corridor, and looked up at the gloomy sky.
"Who likes such a thing as war?"
Chen He nodded in agreement and said: "So it is best for the world to be peaceful, and then push the cart around. Of course it is best to be free and comfortable."
Yun Huzhi looked at Chen He with a smile and said, "You can take me with you in the future."
"no problem!"
Chen He patted his chest and said.
The two sat for a while, and then Chen He remembered that he was going to talk to Cao Weiying, so he stood up and walked towards the other end of the corridor.
Yunhu looked at Chen He's back and asked, "What are you going to do?"
Chen He said: "Go find my distant relative."
Yunhu said strangely from behind: "But there is no one in Jingsi Lake."
Chen He was stunned for a moment, then looked back at Yun Hu Wenzhen. The latter looked serious and didn't look like he was joking.
"Is there no one?"
Chen He said strangely, but decided to go and have a look.
"We have to go back to the library anyway, and it's the same from here."
Yun Hu didn't know what to say and didn't say anything else. He lowered his head and looked at the book while writing and drawing with a frown on his face.
Chen He came all the way to the Jingsi Lake, and then realized that Cao Weiying was indeed not here.
The place where he was sitting was covered with fallen flowers, and it seemed that he had been gone for a while.
Chen He tilted his head and looked there.
Could it be that he really went to catch the spirit witch?
Chen He did not doubt whether Cao Weiying could capture a spirit witch, although the young man who had walked out of the dream had never shown anything magical, and even used scissors to attack Nan who had turned into a peach tree. The island is cut all over.
The only thing that makes people feel a little unusual is that he looks a little mysterious.
But Chen He still had an inexplicable sense of trust in him.
This is why every time something happens, Chen He wants to run to find someone to help him.
Chen He waited by the lake for a long time, but did not wait for Cao Weiying to come back, so he sighed and walked through the forest path towards Qingniuyuan.
But Chen He didn't see Cao Weiying until he returned to the listening platform.
This made Chen He a little curious.
Where could such a young man who came out of a dream and was unfamiliar with the human world go?
Chen He looked at the biographical novel beside him and thought to himself, why don't he go to Laogou Town to ask?
After all, there seems to be a lot of grass in Laogou Town.
They should know where he went.
Just think about it and forget it, this kid should come back anyway.
Chen He yawned. He didn't sleep well last night, and he was really sleepy now.
So he fell asleep leaning against the guardrail of the wind listening platform.
Getting a good night's sleep is of course just as important.
