Since they were not short of money, all three groups of teammates chose to spend money to buy a good horse and ride towards their destination. They also had transportation tools, but they all cost stamina, and the journey was not too close. , if you keep rushing over like this, it will consume too much physical energy.
Wuyin was the first to arrive at the destination. He set off alone and there was no one to chat with on the way, so he moved at full speed. At about 9 o'clock in the evening, he arrived at Jingshui Temple.
There were a lot of disputes in front of the widow's door, but few gossips near the nunnery. Qingshui Nunnery is located behind an inaccessible bamboo forest in the north of the city. The area of this bamboo forest is quite large. It would be very difficult to find someone in it. difficulty.
"Anyway, let's go in first and talk about it later."
There were too many bamboos in the bamboo forest to ride a horse, so he tied the horse outside the bamboo forest and Wuyin walked into the bamboo forest.
After entering the bamboo forest and walking about ten meters, Wuyin stopped. What he was thinking was that he couldn't walk so aimlessly. The surrounding scenery was almost exactly the same. If he wandered around blindly, it would be impossible to find Chu Muran. .
"There should be a prompt."
Wuyin let out a breath. Since he couldn't find his destination with his eyes, he simply closed his eyes. After a person loses vision for a period of time, the sensitivity of other senses will gradually increase. About two or three minutes after he closed his eyes, he could faintly hear the rustling of leaves in the northwest.
"It's strange. I didn't notice any wind after I dismounted. The bamboo forest is a place prone to wind. If the wind blows, there shouldn't be only one place where there is wind noise."
With this thought in his mind, Wuyin walked quickly towards the northwest. The closer he got to the northwest, the louder the sound of rustling leaves became.
After jogging for about 10 minutes, Wuyin saw that an area in front of him had been cleared and turned into an open space. It was still surrounded by bamboo forests, but in the center of the open space stood a man in white, with a long sword in his hand glowing in the moonlight. Emitting a strange light, he was quickly mobilizing his body to practice his sword in this open space.
The air flow from the sword dance formed a whirlwind, only blowing a few bamboo leaves around him, making a rustling sound.
Wuyin saw that the man's figure was getting faster and faster, like a violent storm, every move seemed to swallow the sky and the earth, open and close, extremely domineering, the sword light was sometimes arrogant, sometimes humble, but after a brief moment of humility, it became It is a more violent sword power.
Wuyin looked a little dazed for a while. The man stopped after practicing a set of sword skills. His right hand was on his waist, and the sword in his left hand was naturally drooping. He turned his back to Wuyin and said: "After watching for so long, it's time to come out. Bar."
Wuyin clapped his hands and said: "The Guangfeng Sword Technique is indeed extraordinary. The only one who can practice this sword technique to this level is Mr. Chu Muran, who wears a long sword in white and a murder suit that is not stained with blood." .”
Wuyin got all this information from [Martial Arts Intelligence] on the way. He looked at the information about Chu Muran emphatically. The Wild Wind Sword Technique of the Wild Wind Sect is not a secret treasure of the sect. As long as it is a disciple of the sect, it can be used. study.
This set of swordsmanship seems to have only one general chapter, but depending on the mentality, qualifications, comprehension ability and other indicators of different sword practitioners, it will evolve into hundreds or even thousands of versions with completely different powers, just like Tai Chi. , many people can do it, but how many can practice it to the level of Zhang Sanfeng?
It is said that when Chu Muran was pursuing the realm of swordsmanship, he kept looking for all kinds of scum in the world to hunt down. Some of these people were very powerful masters. Many people can't do anything about them.
Chu Muran, on the other hand, specifically hunted down such scum in order to practice his swordsmanship. After risking his life many times, he finally practiced his swordsmanship to the level of transformation. He only wears white clothes and has a habit of killing people. He never soils his clothes, and not a drop of blood will be seen on his white clothes.
Therefore, it is also known as "white clothes, long sword, clothes not stained with blood".
Chu Muran said: "Who are you?"
As soon as Chu Muran said these words, the system prompt appeared.
[Side mission has been triggered: Understand the reason why Chu Muran lingers in the bamboo forest and solve the problem for him]
[Completion reward: Chu Muran will completely trust you]
Wuyin said: "My name is Wuyin. The purpose of coming here is to tell you something. Mingjian Villa has killed the second masters of the three sects. Now the three sects will unite to deal with Mingjian Villa. They may soon I will come to you to explain this matter and let you join the battle.”
After hearing this, Chu Muran was unmoved and said: "I am no longer a member of the Storm Sect, and their life and death has nothing to do with me."
Wuyin continued: "Don't you think there is a problem here? The power of Mingjian Villa has continued to expand in recent years. If you really wanted to take action against the three sects, you would have done it a long time ago. Why do you do it now? And you are also killing Second boss?"
Chu Muran said coldly: "You can leave, don't delay my sword practice."
Wuyin paused and said: "Well, let's not talk about this. Let's talk about why you want to stay in this bamboo forest."
As soon as these words came out, Wuyin could clearly feel Chu Muran's shoulders shaking. A master like him would not have been in such a situation if the strings in his heart were not plucked.
"What did you say? Do you know why I stayed here?"
Wuyin took advantage of the situation and said: "I don't know, but I guess it must be related to Jingshui Temple. If you have any difficulties, please tell me. I may be able to help you."
Chu Muran chuckled and said, "Help me?"
Wuyin: "Yes, I may not be as good as you in terms of martial arts. I'm afraid your difficulties can't be solved with martial arts, right? My head is not dough...ah, I have a lot of skills. Maybe I can help you, why not tell me the story?"
Chu Muran paused for a while and said: "You can't help me, and no one can help me with my matter. It's not something that humans can do."
Keenly catching the hint in Chu Muran's words, Wuyin immediately said: "Is it related to ghosts? Soul? Spirit body? Ghost? I can make you see ghosts."
When Chu Muran heard what Wuyin said, he turned around with a resolute face. He stared at Wuyin and said, "Can you see ghosts?"
Wuyin said: "Of course, I can let you see it too."
Chu Muran said: "Everyone who lied to me before died under this sword."
Wuyin: "If I lie to you, you can kill me immediately."
Chu Muran thought for a while and said, "Okay, there is a lake next to Qingshui Temple, and there is a trapped ghost at the bottom of the lake. I need you to bring her up."
Wuyin knew that this line of task had to meet two conditions: understanding the cause and solving the problem, so he had to ask clearly about the situation before he could find the ghost.
"You have to tell me the reason why you linger in this bamboo forest first, and then I can help you find the ghost."
Chu Muran nodded and said: "I can tell you, if you can't do it later, I will kill you."
About five years ago, Chu Muran vaguely felt that his swordsmanship was about to break through the bottleneck and enter the realm of transformation. He looked around for a place where he could quietly break through the bottleneck, and finally found this bamboo forest. He felt that it was very suitable for him to practice swordsmanship and break through the bottleneck.
After observing for a few days, Chu Muran found that this place was deserted. Except for some nuns in the Qingshui Nunnery at the back who chanted sutras every day, almost no one came in or out. Those nuns also farmed the land in the nunnery and were self-sufficient without leaving home.
Feeling relieved, Chu Muran chose a good day and began to attack the transformation realm.
He started to practice swordsmanship in the bamboo forest, and gradually got better. His movements became faster and faster, and his position began to move. Because breaking through the bottleneck requires a natural approach, so it is normal for the position to change during the process of practicing swordsmanship. , you cannot deliberately correct the direction.
In this way, Chu Muran repeated the Guangfeng Sword Technique over and over again. Unknowingly, he practiced from the bamboo forest to the lake next to Qingshui Temple.
At this moment, there was a thin little nun fetching water by the lake. She looked extremely weak. She didn’t know whether it was due to low blood sugar or anemia due to squatting for too long. When she lifted the bucket, her vision went dark and she actually fell into the river. She kept saying: She desperately called for help and saw Chu Muran who was practicing swordplay. Of course, Chu Muran also saw her.
But at that time, Chu Muran was only one step away from the transformation state. If he stopped at this time, not only would he not be able to break through the transformation state, but he would also go crazy and suffer severe injuries.
When he was confused and thinking about whether to save people, the nun had already sunk into the lake and disappeared. At this time, Chu Muran's sword skills had successfully broken through. He immediately jumped into the lake to fish out the nun, but Sadly, she is dead.
"I could only hand over her body to Jingshui Temple. That's when I learned that her name was Xiaohui. From that day on, I had a strong feeling that Xiaohui's ghost was trapped in At the bottom of the lake, she did not return and was in great pain, so I never left here, constantly looking for ways to see ghosts and ways to rescue her."
Wuyin nodded and thought: "In other words, you feel very guilty about Xiaohui's death and regret that you didn't save him at that time. This has become a knot in your heart. Then you became aware of the difficulties after Xiaohui's death. , I want to help her out of trouble, so I have been staying in this bamboo forest to think of a way, right?"
Chu Muran looked at Wuyin for a few seconds and said, "Don't you doubt the authenticity of my words at all? Don't you think it's ridiculous? I asked you to go into the lake to rescue the ghosts who may be trapped just based on my feelings."
Wuyin thought to himself: Brother, if you were in the real world, I would definitely treat you as a lunatic, but now this is a game, and side tasks have been released, what you said must be true, you are so suspicious.
"Why should I doubt you? I just said that I can see ghosts and I can also let you see them. And after you said that, I just focused my attention on the direction of the lake and found that there is something weird there."
Chu Muran said: "I hope what you said is true. Can you go now?"
Wuyin hummed: "You can lead the way and just wait for me on the shore later."
As the two of them walked along, Chu Muran was secretly shocked. Although his Qinggong was not top-notch, it was within the range of first-class masters. This guy could keep up with him in a leisurely manner. He seemed to be no ordinary person, but why? There is no hint of martial arts skills in his steps?
Wuyin also knew Chu Muran's doubts. It was too easy to keep up with Chu Muran. Just activate the acceleration skill and drink some stamina supplements. It was no big deal.
After a while, the two of them arrived at the lake. The lake in front of them was really not small. At this moment, only the moon in the sky was shining on the lake. The surface of the lake was as black as ink. I don’t know what is below. Anyone who dares to jump in at this time , which is really courageous, not to mention that the purpose of going on is to rescue a trapped ghost.
"Just wait here for me. I'll come as soon as I go."
After Wu Yin finished speaking, he jumped into the water. For a doctor, atheism is the most basic, but this does not mean that he is not afraid. After all, there are real ghosts in the game. But compared to ordinary people, he could still overcome the fear of jumping into the river at this moment.
He took a Qi-holding pill and a flying fish pill orally, and used Fu Zhuan to open his eyes. The Qi-holding pill not only allowed Wuyin to speak freely in the water, but also allowed him to ignore the water pressure. Not only did Wuyin not have to breathe in the lake, he also I swam very fast, and after opening my eyes, the light in the lake became clearer.
This lake is not only big, but also very deep. Wuyin swam towards the center of the lake. Thanks to the flying fish pills he took, if ordinary people wanted to swim from the shore to the center of the lake, they would not consider breathing. , I’m afraid it will take dozens of minutes, and you need to have the physical strength to support swimming for that long.
As he gradually approached the bottom of the lake, Wuyin was surprised to see that there was an ancient house built at the bottom of the lake. It was not large in scale, with a main hall and one room, and behind the main hall was a woodshed.
Wuyin had no doubt that he was there and swam quickly towards the room in the ancient house.
When he came to the door of the room, he found that there were two big red words "Happy" posted on the door. Although it was underwater, the words "Happy" were still as red as if drops of blood were about to fall.
After hesitating for a second, Wuyin pushed the door open.
There is a bed in the room, and sitting on the bed is a bride wearing a red wedding dress and a red hijab. Obviously, this bride must be a ghost.
When the bride saw someone breaking in, she sat on the bed without moving. Wuyin carefully took out a dagger, slowly approached the bride, and then used the dagger to violently lift off the hijab.
Under the hijab was a bald female ghost with delicate features and pretty eyes. Seeing Wuyin lift the hijab, she leaned back in fright and almost fell on the bed.
"You...who are you?"
Wuyin put away the dagger and said, "You must be Xiaohui, I'm here to save you."
Xiaohui said in surprise: "How do you know me?"
Wuyin: "Five years ago, there was a man who was practicing swordplay by the lake and saw you accidentally slipping into the water. But he was at a critical moment of practicing at that time, so he couldn't save you in time, and you drowned in the end. After you died, he I sensed that your ghost was trapped at the bottom of the lake, and now you entrust me to rescue you."
Xiaohui nodded after listening and said: "So that's it, let's go quickly. To be honest, the reason why I have been trapped these years is because there is an old ghost at the bottom of the lake. He controls the lake. I was trapped by him back then." She was lured into the lake and drowned. He wanted to marry me after I died, but I always refused. Because I was a disciple of Buddhism and recited many sutras during my lifetime, and I still have some blessings after my death. He couldn't force me.
I have been fighting against him, but today I have lost all my protection, so he has set today to officially marry me. He has just gone out and may be back soon. Let's go quickly. "
Wuyin nodded, and Xiaohui stretched out her hand to let Wuyin pull her away.
Unexpectedly, Wuyin sneered, took a step back and said, "It's full of loopholes!"
