A heavy rain lasted all day before it stopped.
The morning sun is rising, and it is the beginning of another day. The wind is gentle and the sun is bright, and the sky is clear. In the wilderness of Yuzhou Daze, the water vapor on the ground is rising, and the clouds are steaming and mist surrounds.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. Those scumbags from the Lianxin Sect are all going after me. It's me who has caused trouble for you guys from the Tieyang Gang and the people of Tieyang Town."
A mountain peak. The lower half of the peak is covered with deep clouds and thick fog. The upper half of the peak is full of vitality with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers.
In a shallow cave that was forcibly blasted out of the upper half of the mountain, the young man Yun Tianfeng put down the wooden branch in his hand and buried his head gently in the white smoke of the campfire, speaking quietly.
"Don't blame yourself, it was me who brought you back." The girl with her back to the entrance of the cave was in a depressed mood, and her small face was as red as a ripe apple illuminated by the firelight.
"But... a lot of people died." Yun Tianfeng clenched his fists tighter and slowly raised his head. From this angle, he just saw the girl's head facing the warm sun, and a rainbow rising from her left shoulder and falling to her right shoulder.
"It's true that many people died, but you didn't do anything wrong. Those who were wrong were the disciples of the Lianxin Sect who killed innocent people indiscriminately." Murong Yu and Yun Tianfeng looked at each other, and the curvature of the corners of their mouths in a slight smile matched the rainbow on their shoulders. They were the same, except that there was mist in those eyes, and there was a bright liquid diamond spinning around, stubbornly hovering on the edge of falling.
The two of them were silent, each with their own thoughts.
The hare on the small fire gradually turned from red to black, and neither of them had any appetite. Until the fire went out, the roasted hare turned into roasted rabbit charcoal.
At this time, the sun was already high.
"Yun Tianfeng, are you really from that legendary Kunlun?" Murong Yu was the first to break the silence.
"Well, I am a disciple of Kunlun."
"The legendary Kunlun Sword Immortals gather together, and every time they go out, the sky is covered with darkness. Is it true?"
"False, when I went up the mountain, there were only two people on Kunlun Mountain, Master and Second Senior Brother. Eight years ago, Second Senior Brother also disappeared, and then only my Master was left. Now..." The young man is getting more and more lonely.
"Then what are your plans in the future?" Murong Yu asked again.
"Are you planning on it?" Yun Tianfeng was stunned for a moment, and then he was slightly lost in thought. After a moment, he said: "I want to go back to Kunlun Mountain to take a look. If something really happens to the master, I will find out the murderer and avenge the master, and then Rebuild Kunlun Palace."
Murong Yu lowered his head slightly and pinched the corner of his clothes: "Are we friends?"
"Of course." Yun Tianfeng replied firmly, thinking of Tiezi's instructions and Murong Jue's life-saving grace.
"Then let me go to Kunlun with you." Murong Yu suddenly said.
"Ah?" Yun Tianfeng was stunned for a moment and said in surprise: "Kunlun is very far away. I don't even know how to go back. Moreover, this matter is very dangerous. It seems that many people in the demonic path are chasing me now. Follow me." I would be in danger."
The girl tilted her head and raised her ponytail, squinting her eyes and smiling: "Kunlun is the holy land of the human race. It is a place that the brothers in the gang always admire when they mention it. It is also a place where Tiezi dreams of becoming an apprentice and learning skills, and you are the only one in Kunlun. Your disciples, if I can help you, they will definitely be very happy."
"But we didn't know each other before, and now the Tieyang Gang has paid such a big price because of me. Is it worth it?" Yun Tianfeng's heart tightened, and his eyes were slightly red.
"It's worth it!" Murong Yu said firmly while holding her fist.
"Why?" Yun Tianfeng was confused.
Murong Yu turned to look out of the cave: "The children of Jianghu think and do what they do, but with their hot blood, there are so many reasons."
As she said that, the girl looked at Yun Tianfeng again: "From the moment I, Murong Yu, picked you up and brought you back to the Tieyang Gang, we all became brothers. Since we are brothers, we naturally have to be loyal. Brothers' business is everyone's business."
"Jianghu..." Yun Tianfeng was stunned.
The girl stood up, patted the dust and dirt on her body, and stretched out her hand. Yun Tianfeng raised his head to look at her, and immediately held hands with each other. Murong Yu exerted a little force, and Yun Tianfeng stood up and then stopped.
Murong Yu bent down to pick up the broad sword on the ground and put it on his back again, saying: "Yuzhou is very big, with no less than hundreds of thousands of miles in all directions. If you want to go to Kunlun, you have to cross at least several cities the size of Yuzhou. Where, maybe we can change our thinking."
"How to say it?" Yun Tianfeng asked humbly.
Murong Yuqing frowned in thought and said: "Let's assume that something really happened in Kunlun. If you want to find out the truth and find the murderer behind it, you have to follow the clues and start with the person who is chasing you."
"Heart Refining Sect?" Yun Tianfeng was thoughtful.
"That's right!" Murong Yu nodded: "According to what you said, you had a hunch that something happened in Kunlun three days ago when we first met. Considering the distance between Yuzhou and Kunlun, the news could not have spread to Yuzhou so quickly. But in just three days, the Lianxin Sect has already tracked down Tieyang Town and is hunting you down, which shows that there must be someone behind the Lianxin Sect, and the person who gave the instructions may be related to the mastermind behind the scenes."
"It makes sense, but I'm not familiar with Yuzhou at all, so how should I start the investigation?" Yun Tianfeng frowned.
"I happen to know that there is a Heart Refining Sect stronghold hundreds of miles away."
"Are you going now?"
"No, although you have obtained Tiezi's internal power, it cannot be fully transformed into combat power. If the Kunlun incident is true, then the difficulties you will face will be very great, so you must learn some ways to use your internal power before the next fight. The ability to transform into combat effectiveness.”
"You mean?"
"The sword technique my brother left in your head is not simple. Even I can't teach you, but there is a place where you may benefit a lot!"
"Where?"
"Feiyun Tower."
…
Tieyang Town is a town named after being protected by mountain gangs. In the past ten years, its stability has even surpassed that of nearby cities, attracting many people to settle there.
However, the battle a day ago finally broke the stability here. Dozens of people in the town died tragically, and almost all the Tieyang Gang who guarded the town were wiped out. Now there are only two people alive, one is the second master. , a big boss.
At this moment, the sun was shining brightly, and all the corpses at the entrance of the town had been buried, but the ruins of broken and messy houses were still shocking.
A scholar in white walked through this place carrying a long sword wrapped in coarse cloth, walked out of the town, and stopped at a cemetery a few miles away. On the tombstone in front of him were the words "Tieyang Gang's third master, Tiezi". Character.
"Is the world of mortals just the world of rivers and lakes?"
The warm wind blew, and with slight footsteps, a man in rough clothes with messy hair and an iron bar on his back came with a strong smell of alcohol.
The sloppy man stood next to the scholar, looked down at the tombstone, took off the wine bottle from his waist and took a sip. He hesitated slightly, his eyes struggled, and then handed the wine bottle to the scholar with a little reluctance.
The scholar took the wine flask, looked at it, wiped the mouth of the gourd with his sleeve, then took a sip, and thought for a while: "The world of mortals is not the world of rivers and lakes, but the world of rivers and lakes should be the most exciting scenery in the world of mortals."
The sloppy man thought for a while, but felt that it was a waste of time. He quickly shook his head and asked doubtfully: "With the things you usually do, it's really unfathomable that the bald man didn't fight to the death with you when he met you."
"He wants to go to death, but he's not out of his mind. This wilderness area smells the aroma of top-grade daughter's red wine. It's strange that he doesn't leave." The scholar said angrily.
"It's not fun to talk about him." The sloppy man stretched out, looked up at the scorching sun in the sky, sneezed quickly, looked into the distance again, and said casually: "I got the news, the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains have announced After receiving the Ten Thousand Demons Hunting Order, the entire Yuzhou Demonic Path will hunt down that boy. Can you, a martial artist, handle such a brother-in-law? That is a state of demonic path!"
"It's just a state of magic. How can I, Murong Jue, be afraid of chopping melons and vegetables?" The scholar raised his head and sneered.
"Hahahaha..." The sloppy man snatched his wine gourd from the scholar's hand, shook his head and walked away.
"I don't have the ability to be a big fart. I like to talk arrogantly after just two sips of wine. As a scholar, I have never won with my hands or lost with my mouth. No wonder people say that Bai Wuyi is a scholar. He can't drink well. He can't do it! "
…
The world is divided into ten states, each of which is different from the other.
Among the ten states, Yuzhou is the state where martial arts is the most prosperous.
The prosperity of martial arts means the prosperity of the world.
Dynasties have boundaries, rivers and lakes are boundless. There are more than a thousand large and small dynasties in the Yuzhou human race. Some are prosperous and some are in decline, but the same thing is that they are all in the same rivers and lakes. The temples and rivers and lakes here are a kind of thing that is difficult to understand in other states. of interdependence.
Among them, the country named after Feiyun has only eighteen cities in the whole country, with an area of more than 100,000 square kilometers. It is not conspicuous among the thousands of dynasties scattered all over the country, but it is not comparable to the down-and-out dynasty ranked at the bottom. Today's national power The country is booming and has a bright future.
In the afternoon, there was a Baihua Ferry about two hundred miles away from Feiyun City. Boys and girls, each with their faces covered with cloths, paid the boat fare and went ashore. They turned around and watched the old boatman go away with his bamboo pole, and then they walked away in unison. Hurry up.
"There is an interesting thing about Yuzhou. There is usually only one major martial arts sect in a dynasty, and each of the large and small cities and counties within the dynasty has its own small sect. The relationship between temples and martial arts is very subtle."
The girl walked in front to lead the way, and the boy followed half a step behind, listening with an open mind.
"The imperial court is in charge of people's livelihood and the market, and the army is only stationed in the imperial capital, while Jianghu gangs provide force to manage public security in various places outside the imperial capital. It is more like a cooperative outsourcing relationship. In addition to fixed cities, many places even have to be first Only when powerful gangs are stationed will construction of cities and towns begin."
"It's just like the relationship between Tieyang Gang and Tieyang Town, right?" The young man suddenly realized.
The girl nodded: "The immortal path in Yuzhou is weak, the demonic path is rampant, and monsters are rampant. Only martial arts warriors dare to confront the monsters. There is nothing we can do about it."
While chatting, the mountain path beneath the two of them gradually penetrated into the dense forest.
The sunlight began to become scarce, and a weak cool breeze blew under the shade of large trees. There were soft and yellow pine branches under your feet. It seemed that not many people walked on this road on weekdays, and the weeds almost completely covered the road. pass.
"Feiyun Tower is similar to the state religion to Feiyun Kingdom. Except for the three building owners in the building, the other elders, guardian deacons, etc. are all the leaders of large gangs and sects in other cities in Feiyun Kingdom. Therefore, some people say, The world of Feiyun Kingdom has shrunk, and it’s just Feiyun Tower.”
When Murong Yu said this, he said to the young man sincerely: "Not only the immortals in the world respect Kunlun, but also the world's rivers and lakes. In recent years, I have been visiting Feiyun Tower with my brother every year, and I am quite familiar with one of the owners of Feiyun Tower. , when you get there, if he knows your identity, he will do his best to teach you martial arts, and he will keep your identity secret for you, so you don’t need to worry."
"Yun naturally believes in Miss Murong, but now there is a huge reward on the devil's pursuit order. If your whereabouts and my whereabouts are leaked, will it bring disaster to Feiyun Tower?" Yun Tianfeng was slightly worried.
"Junior Brother Yun and Junior Sister Murong don't need to worry." Suddenly a voice came.
Yun Tianfeng and Murong Yu looked up at the same time and looked into the dense forest ahead. There was a man wearing a green shirt riding a horse.
"In Feiyun Country, I, Feiyun Tower, have the final say on all affairs in the world. If demons dare to attack, they will be enemies of the entire Feiyun Kingdom. They may not have the courage." Twenty Lang was a young man in his early years. With sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, he reined in his horse, turned over, and clasped his fists with a smile.
"Zhang Qingshan of Feiyun Tower came here to greet the junior brothers and sisters under the orders of his master."
