It is said to be a mountain forest, but it is just a hill with the top of it visible to the naked eye, and sparse trees.
Spring rain is as precious as oil, and when spring happens, the new green leaves are pleasant to see, but they don't make Shen Li smile at all.
"Are you okay?" Chen Liuyao asked worriedly.
He heard Shen Li's heart beating fast and slow, and the blood spilling from the corner of his mouth stained his back clothes red.
The young man knew his situation, and even though he was born with a Vajra, Dragon, and Elephant body, he could not bear the constant battles.
The troublesome part now is that he cannot take a good rest, but relies on the Turtle and Snake Rejuvenation Pill that Song Wanru fed him to forcefully stimulate his physical recovery.
As for the Turtle and Snake Rejuvenation Pill, even if it is regarded as a holy medicine for healing, after such a deadly battle, the potency of the medicine is almost exhausted.
Just arrived at the hill.
Then two old men who were admiring spring flowers turned to look at them.
Shen Li knew the two of them. When Zui Chunlou fought to kill Jiang Huchen, the two old men protected Liu Taiyuan and went to the scene to collect Liu Ce's body.
Pull off the reins.
The young man asked in a cold voice: "The old man with one foot in the earth can't wait for reincarnation?"
The old man didn't take it seriously and said loudly: "Young man, you should go to the riverside instead of carrying Chen Liuyao far away."
"What if I'm not happy?"
"You are no match for me now."
The two old men are both good-looking, and their ability to serve as Lafayette's personal followers is enough proof of their strength.
Shen Li got off his horse and said, "It's ridiculous."
The hibiscus in the stream and lake buzzed and trembled, and the sword energy flowed into the white blade.
"Xihu Lotus Sword? Did Xihu Mountain Guest die in your hands?"
Another person clapped his hands and laughed: "No wonder, if you don't kill Xihu Mountain Guest, how can you drag Chen Liuyao here. Young Master, listen to my advice, there is a deputy mountain chief in Jiange Mountain, he will not sit back and watch Xihu Furong Living outside! This sword is not very good, so there is no shame in returning it to Jiange Mountain!"
Shen Li continued to ask: "You must not give way?"
One person looked back and pointed to the top of the hill. Liu Taiyuan and Liu Xiangjun were sitting on the Grand Master's chair. "The old Buddha is on the mountain. He will never allow you to leave without authorization, let alone bring Chen Liuyao with you."
"The Eight Heavenly Dragons are about to come out. They are said to be Heavenly Dragons, but they are actually a type of dragon. The only outcome for Chen Liuyao is that the dragon walks across the river."
According to ancient records, giant dragons travel across rivers and transform into dragons when entering the sea.
Shen Li suddenly realized: "Human beings are the spiritual leader of all things, also known as earthly immortals, and are qualified to be 'conferred'. Do you want me to confer Chen Liuyao?"
The old man stroked his beard and sighed: "The world is huge, and people with amazing talents and beauty are like crucian carp crossing the river, but you alone can seal the eight heavenly dragons in Chen Liuyao's body! Only after sealing, can the name be justified and won." Heaven and earth acknowledge it.”
"If you insist on taking away Chen Liuyao, you will only kill him!"
"The name is Babu Tianlong. In fact, he was born to raise eight little dragons that live in the human body."
Shen Li murmured to himself: "There are so many experts in the Xingxiu Sect, no wonder I was chosen as the soldier crossing the river."
He asked again immediately.
"When will the Eight Heavenly Dragons mature?"
The two old men pinched their fingers and looked at the sky, "Within two hours."
Shen Li sarcastically laughed: "There are always doubts."
"If the time had not been blurred, Kaixi City would have been reduced to a pot of porridge, and in the end it was still the innocent people who suffered."
I figured out the twists and turns.
The young man turned back and mounted his horse: "Okay, since you have ordered me to seal Chen Liuyao by name, I will listen to you. But, how can Chen Liuyao survive without any danger?"
"You will understand when the time comes."
"I advise you not to do that. Chen Liuyao is already destined to die."
Turn the horse's head and don't listen to the noise of the two men.
He rode towards the river bank.
Liu Taiyuan on the hill stared intently at the back of the young man, and his heart was filled with confusion. If he had taken action in time when Zui Chun Tower happened, would his eldest son not have died?
Once this idea arose, he could no longer hold it down, and even Shen Li hated it.
"My son is dead, you all should go with him."
"Xiangjun, I will send someone to take you home. This place will not be safe next time."
He clapped his hands.
Someone quietly asked Liu Xiangjun to leave.
"Shen Li's poetry is excellent. My son has liked to recite poems and write poems since he was a child. Maybe the two of them are good companions on the road to hell."
"Follow your orders." Someone else came down the mountain, waiting for the right moment to assassinate Shen Li.
In recent years, the Liu family has gathered many desperadoes in the world. These people are grateful for Liu Taiyuan's protection and obey their orders.
The river outside Kaixi City is called Dadu River. It has no other meaning, but it means that the river is very big.
The water of the Dadu River is not fast. Riding horses along the bank, you can see large ships carrying goods passing by from time to time.
There are thousands of hectares of fertile farmland nearby, stretching as far as the eye can see.
Kaixi City does not need to send food from other places. Every autumn, the food harvested outside the city can feed the people.
Chen Liuyao was silent all the way, and finally couldn't help but said: "Am I really going to die?"
"I...will try to save you." Shen Li replied.
"Suddenly there were eight waves of hot air rushing through the internal organs." Chen Liuyao's face turned red and he seemed very uncomfortable.
"I thought I wouldn't be in such a hurry. It's just that I didn't think well."
Shen Li planned to take him away first, and then find Zhao Ruyu to find a way. Unexpectedly, the moment he left Zuichun Tower, the eight heavenly dragons in Chen Liuyao's body started counting down.
Perhaps Jiang Huchen knew this when he rushed into Zuichun Tower in a hurry.
Now.
There was still something that the young man couldn't understand. Jiang Huchen was making a big fuss in Zui Chun Tower. There were many masters in the city, so why did he just watch and not take action? Who delayed the first-grade Bodhisattva for Jiang Huchen?
"Be careful!" Chen Liuyao suddenly shouted.
Shen Li had fought several battles and was exhausted. They didn't notice someone approaching them.
It was a fat middle-aged man pretending to be a rich man.
Arriving here on a cargo ship, I saw the two men on horseback. Their expressions were shocked. They recognized Chen Liuyao's appearance and immediately took action.
He grabbed a willow tree that was blowing in the wind from the shore and threw it at the two of them.
Fortunately, Chen Liuyao reminded him in time.
Shen Li jumped up with his sword, slashed at the willow tree, split it in two, and passed through the middle. He glanced at the people around the obese middle-aged man who seemed to be in danger, and found that these people were actually the diners of the inn where he and Liu Xiangjun had stopped. .
Li Ye didn't deal with them?
Such thoughts passed away in a flash. He fell to the water, stepped on the water and rushed forward again. When approaching the cargo ship, Shen Li mobilized the energy in his body and held the Xihu Hibiscus tightly. He planned to cut off the courage of this group of people with one sword.
After all, he was born with the body of a diamond dragon and an elephant. Even if he fought hard for several battles, it was still almost impossible to exhaust all his energy.
Raise your sword.
The sword energy disturbed the fish swimming at the bottom of the water like headless flies. In an instant, the waves surged, with one wave higher than the other and slapping towards both banks.
The horse was frightened, and Chen Liuyao pulled the reins desperately to prevent it from moving away from Shen Li.
The obese middle-aged man snorted coldly. As a fourth-grade Taoist Qi practitioner and the second shopkeeper of Tongquetai in Nanwu, he certainly had a lot of great skills at his disposal.
If the big shopkeeper Jiang Huchen hadn't ignored the dissuasion and broke into Zuichun Tower in advance and ended up dead, how could he have gone to the front desk to fight with his own hands?
He opened his mouth and spit out a ball of fire.
The fire swelled with the wind.
The second shopkeeper made a secret with his fat hands. When Shen Li dropped his sword, the blazing flames turned into a wall of fire ten feet thick in the blink of an eye.
The sword energy slashed at the wall of fire, and the fire disappeared.
Breath another ball of fire.
The second shopkeeper who practices fire magic opened his hand and grasped the peach wood sword he carried with him.
Stepping on the starting point, I muttered some words.
The fire floating in front of him slowly took on the shape of a human being.
Shen Li smashed through the wall of fire without stopping at all, and raised his sword again.
The bright sword light caused everyone on the ship to look away and avoid it. When they turned around, they suddenly felt the cargo ship shaking under their feet.
The second shopkeeper's expression changed drastically and he gave an order for Huoren to fight the young man. He quickly jumped towards the shore and rushed straight towards Chen Liuyao who was still controlling the horse.
This sword.
Shen Li actually cut the cargo ship in half.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the second shopkeeper, who immediately abandoned the crowd and tried to protect Chen Liuyao. A fiery fireman, like a martial artist, came towards him with fierce punches.
The fireman is difficult to deal with, but he seems not to be afraid of the sword energy.
Every time Shen Li cuts it into two pieces, each piece becomes a brand new Huo Ren.
Tai Chi generates two rituals, two rituals generate four images, and four images generate Bagua.
After a few breaths and eight burning people stepping on the Bagua direction, Shen Li was surrounded and unable to break out.
There was a fireman trapping the young man. The second shopkeeper easily caught Chen Liuyao. He was immediately happy and secretly sighed that it took no effort. He immediately occupied the magpie's nest and wanted to kidnap him on horseback.
How could it be so easy?
Four people came on fast horses from the direction of Kaixi City.
The target was directed at Chen Liuyao, who was restrained by the second shopkeeper.
The second shopkeeper, who is in charge of many things, is galloping on his horse.
The four of them are all good players, and their equestrian skills are several times better than those of the second shopkeeper.
It didn't take long to catch up.
Unfortunately, they were no match for the second shopkeeper, so he used Taoist magic on his horse to kill them.
Shen Li saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart. The eight firemen supported each other. Even though his killing power was astonishing, he was trapped in the Bagua formation and found it difficult to break free.
The second shopkeeper abandoned the mahogany sword and used the Hidden Sword Technique with his right hand to grasp a long sword. "Boy, follow the Taoist faithfully. Don't take any chances."
Chen Liuyao was speechless and could only pray that Shen Li would come quickly, kill the fat man and save him.
On the hill.
The two old men were separated, Liu Taiyuan, one on the left and one on the right.
"This person is really good at using fire."
"He is actually a famous swordsman."
"Oh, just pretending. Only when a martial artist enters the art of swordsmanship can he be considered pure. There are countless swordsmen from the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, but they are not as pure as the former."
"I heard that many warriors in the martial arts world intend to draw a clear line between themselves and swordsmen. Warriors are warriors, and swordsmen are swordsmen."
"It should have been like this a long time ago. Swordsmanship has been popular in the world for almost a hundred years. Everyone still thinks that swordsmen are subordinate to martial artists. They really confuse the difference between the two and don't know what to say."
"Mr. Liu, do you need us to take action?"
Liu Taiyuan drooped his eyelids and glanced at the second shopkeeper with energy: "This person opened an inn outside Kaixi City and is called the second shopkeeper. Jiang Huchen is the chief shopkeeper. Now that the chief shopkeeper is dead, how can the second shopkeeper live alone? ? You don’t need to take action, someone will kill him, everything is under control."
Suddenly, he added: "The death of the chess piece is irrelevant. The Eight Dragons are about to come out. At that time, Chen Liuyao is also irrelevant. If he dies, he will die. If he survives by chance, he will live."
"yes."
The two of them stood on the mountain watching a play. The twists and turns of this big play, where you sing and I appear, are more exciting than the dramas circulating in the city.
Only now do they understand that the eight heavenly dragons in Chen Liuyao's body can only be taken away by others during a period of time when they come out.
I just heard Liu Taiyuan mention that Chen Liuyao's Eight Heavenly Dragons were just an addendum. The real root was the increasingly fierce party struggle in the Southern Wu Dynasty. Almost all the four prime ministers were killed, and Liu Taiyuan, the prime minister of the late emperor, was fighting to the death. Even if his eldest son Liu Ce died, Lafayette still suppressed his grief temporarily and had to decide the outcome.
On the other hand, Zhao Ruyu and Liu Taiyuan didn't say much. They couldn't figure out what Zhao Ruyu wanted. Even more strangely, the leader of Xingxiu, who had never seen the dragon, also got involved, leaving Zen Master Foyu who was in charge of Kaixi City at a loss.
As soon as I thought of the Xingxiu Sect, Nalan Suichun, one of the seven killers of the Xingxiu Sect, shook the prayer wheel in his hand and took a lotus flower step by step. He seemed to be far away, but in the blink of an eye, he came to him.
Liu Taiyuan opened his sleepy eyes and stood up on the chair, "Dead?"
"Dead. Lian Zhen and Xinyue Hu are on their way to evacuate."
"What does Mr. Zhao have to say?"
Nalan Siuchun stared at the old Buddha, who was still as ambitious as the sky in his old age: "A second-grade great Bodhisattva of the Siming Realm died in our hands. The Buddhists will definitely not let it go. The matter has been mostly done, Zhao Sir, I hope you will go to the palace to appease Lord Wu, and by the way, advise Lord Wu to give orders. The Buddhist family had better endure this tone."
"You don't need me to take care of things here?" he asked calmly.
Nalan Siuchun's eyes turned to Zhao Zhiqing: "Four prime ministers, Liu Pu's confidant Qi Jianquan was killed by Xinyue Hu, and the deputy chief of Jiange Mountain who had a good relationship with him now does not draw a sword, and there will be no more The time to draw the sword. Sun Yuanji was a clown who picked up sesame seeds and lost the watermelon. Seeing that he had wronged Qin Zhen, the Minister of War thought of himself and secretly sought refuge with Jia Qiuhe. Privy Councilor Gu Yanben stood by and ignored him..."
Liu Taiyuan frowned and said, "So you asked me to go into the palace to meet the Holy One and persuade the Holy One not to let the great Bodhisattva in the palace who practices Buddhism and Zen take action?"
"yes."
"I haven't been out of town for long."
"Old Buddha, after everything is done, Mr. Zhao's promise will be fulfilled, and you will live a long life!" Nalan Suichun said seriously.
The resentment hidden in the wrinkles on Liu Taiyuan's face was instantly relieved, "Well, I haven't seen the Holy Master for a long time. I, the Imperial Master, should meet the Holy Master to prevent the traitor Xiao Xiao from deceiving Sheng Cong."
"Thank you, Lafayette."
He glanced at the two of them and said, "You all should go back to the city with me."
Liu Taiyuan was not only the prime minister when the late emperor was in power, but also the mentor of the current Lord Wu. His status was extremely respected, unparalleled in the huge Kaixi City.
The two old men escorted him down the mountain slowly and got into a spacious carriage pulled by four horses. He opened the curtains and Liu Taiyuan was slightly confused: "What does Mr. Zhao plan to do with Zhao Zhiqing?"
"Li Ye didn't kill Wei Jie, and he just had a cup of tea with the Great Sword Immortal named Yuan Yi. It was his turn to fight Zhao Zhiqing to the death. If he won, he would be the next commander of the Insect Catching Division. If he lost, the Xingxiu Sect would also have a stable future. hand."
"Okay, where is the deputy head of Jiange Mountain?"
"He is stubborn and won't leave. The leader doesn't mind killing the great swordsman."
Liu Taiyuan thought over in his mind that all the masters who were still able to participate were almost dead. Ever since Shen Li killed Pang Hu and Po Jun killed Zuo Pu, all of them had been beheaded by the river-crossing pawn appointed by Zhao Ruyu. Although the second-grade great Bodhisattva and Qi Jianquan were not killed by Shen Li, they still had a lot to do with him.
Yeah!
After this is done, Liu Taiyuan will really live a long life.
The horses neighed, and four BMWs worth thousands of dollars pulled a carriage that looked unattractive, but actually contained a universe, and drove quickly towards Kaixi City.
After Liu Taiyuan left, Nalan Siuchun pointed at the second shopkeeper who was laughing happily: "I've made this guy proud for long enough, kill him."
As if speaking to the air, a sharp and sharp whistle suddenly sounded across the field.
The Xingxiu Cult killers who were waiting in ambush appeared from various hiding places and surrounded and killed the second shopkeeper from all directions.
These killers are all from the Twenty-Eight Stars, the elite of the Star Cult, and each of them is a veteran assassin.
When the second shopkeeper saw the situation, his flesh trembled with fear for a moment, his fat body couldn't stop trembling, he knew something was wrong.
The killing power of a Taoist swordsman is not as powerful as that of a serious swordsman, but combined with the techniques, he is just as good.
The long sword was stained with flames, shook slightly, and immediately burst into flames.
"If you dare to push me too far, I'll kill Chen Liuyao. Let's see who feels bad!" the second shopkeeper said fiercely.
These Xingxiu killers are used to seeing ruthless people, how could they be frightened by their few words? Methodically look for a good spot to kill with one hit.
the other side.
Shen Li finally found a flaw in the Bagua formation composed of Huo Ren and slashed through it with a few swords.
The people who fell into the water from the cargo ship swam ashore and saw that he was out of trouble. They set up their positions and the young man struck a few more swords, killing him in a panic and causing heavy casualties.
These people are not outstanding in martial arts, and are mostly seventh- and eighth-grade martial arts. Even though Tongquetai is a first-class yamen composed of Jianghu people, it ultimately belongs to the Northern Sui Dynasty. They dare not send a large number of people to the Southern Wu Buddhist Kingdom. Once the insect catching department gathers If Buddhist masters encircle and suppress them, they will lose more than they gain.
The second shopkeeper was breathing heavily and saw that the killers were not in a hurry to fight, but instead blocked his escape route first and waited for the opportunity.
"I'm telling you! If you kill me, Tongquetai will definitely avenge me!!! At that time, no matter where you flee to, you will still be dead!"
He was not stupid, and he could see that the four people he had just killed so easily were all local chickens and dogs. The group of people surrounding him had fierce, sharp and firm eyes, and they were all desperadoes licking blood from their swords.
When Shen Li saw the second shopkeeper stopped and concentrated on preparing for the battle, Shen Li sneered and asked, "Did you find Wei Jie?"
"Boy! If you don't want to cause big trouble, let me go!" The second shopkeeper chopped off a wave of fire.
The young man extinguished the billowing fire with a sword, "The fire technique is okay, but the heat is a bit weak. It's good for scaring people. But if you want to burn people to death, you don't need even a little bit."
"If you don't brag, you will die!" The second shopkeeper was extremely anxious.
The longer it takes, the worse the situation becomes for him.
Shen Li's figure suddenly disappeared.
The second shopkeeper put his sword in front of Chen Liuyao's neck and shouted: "You think I'm talking nonsense? You really don't want to kill him? If the Northern Sui Dynasty can't get the Eight Heavenly Dragons, you can't even think of it!!"
"Take a good look at Chen Liuyao." The young man's voice came from beside him.
"Um?"
The second shopkeeper turned around and held out a sword.
The long sword was blazing with fire, like a pillar of fire hitting Shen Li.
The Xihu Hibiscus in his hand is far more powerful than before.
The sword slashed the pillar of fire, and the sword energy was used as water. After extinguishing the pillar of fire, he approached the second shopkeeper.
The killer who is good at Earth Escape can sneak out without hesitation. While the second shopkeeper was concentrating on dealing with Shen Li, he stabbed the dagger into his side. With one successful blow, he immediately used Earth Escape to get away without hesitation.
Holding back the pain, the second shopkeeper gritted his teeth and wiped the back of Chen Liuyao's neck with his sword. As he said, if Bei Sui couldn't get it, the rest of the people couldn't get it either.
However, a small dragon that looked like a loach blocked the long sword. It was like metal colliding with each other. The shock was so strong that the second shopkeeper almost couldn't hold the long sword.
Shen Li's Xihu Furong also arrived, and he stabbed it through with a sword, which was quite simple and unrestrained.
He lowered his head and glanced at the sword blade exposed on his chest. He couldn't hear the second shopkeeper sighing and murmuring something. He fell off the horse and took a few more breaths before his life disappeared.
"You brat, you almost caused a big disaster!" Among the killers, the three of them were familiar with Shen Li. "Chen Liuyao was really taken away by this person, and the consequences are unpredictable! How many times have I said, don't be sloppy in killing people?" Cutting the cargo ship in half was impressive, wasn't it? Didn't you realize there was a fourth-grade Qi practitioner on board?!"
Shen Li held the sword in one hand and supported the horse to keep himself from falling. He bared his teeth and cursed: "Don't talk sarcastically. If anyone has any healing elixir, please hurry up and get a few bottles. I can't bear it anymore."
The young man who was good at earth escape pulled out the medicine stopper and poured a bottle of good medicine into the young man's mouth.
Swallow the jujube in one gulp, and then use the Qi machine to dissolve the medicine, allowing it to slowly recover.
"Don't touch Chen Liuyao, he looks very strange."
Shen Li sat cross-legged on the spot, running his Qi machine, trying to regain a little more strength.
Nalan Suichun walked up to him and slapped him on the back of the head. The young man groaned and threw him down: "Get away and heal your wounds. You little thing who doesn't know the heights of the world, don't you have any points? How many fights have you fought? Even if you are blessed with a good physique, you still can't count." I can’t stand the excitement.”
Shen Li turned over on the spot and looked at her with a playful smile on his face: "Good sister Nalan, I just want to help you."
"Haha, no need. Haha, don't you call yourself my master anymore?"
"How dare I do that in front of you?"
Seeing Nalan Suichun kick him in the crotch, Shen Li was shocked and rolled around to avoid it.
"Don't stand in my way, stay away. You're only in the fourth-grade Vajra realm. You can't interfere in the rest of the war."
"Good sister, where are they?" Shen Li pointed at everyone.
"Them?" Nalan Suichun looked around, "They are here to prove to the blind dogs that if the Xingxiu Cult tries to change their minds, the dog's head will fall to the ground."
Chen's six or seven orifices were bleeding and he was extremely frightened.
Nalan Suichun didn't seem to see it, so he left Chen Liuyao alone and went to look for Zhao Zhiqing.
Next to it is Dadu.
Under the gaze of everyone, Chen Liuyao dismounted his horse and crawled for a while using his hands and feet. As if he felt it was too slow and he was walking like a zombie, he stood up and walked unsteadily to the riverside.
Seven small loach-sized dragons entered the river from the seven orifices. The last one, the one on the back of the neck that blocked the second shopkeeper's sword, quickly disappeared from Chen Liuyao's body. After a while, he opened his mouth wide, and the little dragon The dragon jumped up and sank into the river, rippling round and round.
Shen Li was stunned for a moment, and then ordered as if he had a clear understanding in his heart: "The eight groups of heavenly dragons, human beings and non-human beings, can all become Buddhas from afar."
"Eight heavenly dragons, walking across the rivers and seas, are all revered as gods."
In an instant, the entire Dadu was filled with brilliant golden light and surging purple light.
Suddenly there were bursts of dragon roars.
Zhao Ruyu stood on the wall of Kaixi City, looked at this scene from a distance, and sighed: "The natural Vajra Dragon Elephant, the eight celestial dragons are sealed, it is done."
At this moment, Jia Qiuhe was so excited that he couldn't help himself, "It's finally done!!"
A middle-aged Confucian scholar came down in a boat.
Zhao Ruyu suddenly turned his head and jumped off the city wall without stopping.
The middle-aged Confucian scholar stood proudly on the head of the boat, gently waving his folding fan, looking graceful and elegant.
