As early as when Feng Ji had a fierce fight with several people, Huicheng and Chen Quanzhong left secretly. Looking at the situation in front of me, I'm afraid I won't be able to take away the treasure if I stay here any longer. Since I have the map and the sword in my hand, it's better to come back when the opportunity arises.
After walking about five miles away, Chen Quanzhong suddenly stopped walking when he saw that he was far away from everyone. When Wang Yisi saw this, he immediately understood and jumped to block Huicheng and Yu Zhenshan.
"What do you want to do?" Huicheng looked at Chen Quanzhong's posture and understood in his heart. It seemed that he wanted to take the treasure for himself.
"Hand it over. For the sake of cooperation, I can circumvent you. If you are happy, I can even share some of the treasure with you."
Huicheng looked at Chen Quanzhong, snorted coldly, and then whistled.
There was a rustling sound, and a group of people jumped out and surrounded several people. Judging by how they were dressed, they were all from the palace.
Chen Quanzhong glanced at the crowd and saw a group of eunuchs. His contempt suddenly appeared, so he ignored them and picked up the silver spear and stabbed Huicheng.
Before Huicheng could get out of the way, a group of eunuchs armed with ropes, fans, sticks, writing brushes, crossbows and other weapons rushed forward to protect Huicheng and Yu Zhenshan, and surrounded the others to attack and kill them. .
Chen Quanzhong was shocked. It was obvious that these people were not ordinary eunuchs, but a group of well-trained and powerful martial arts masters. With the large number of people and their tacit cooperation, they were really powerful. They might not be able to escape today.
Not long after, everyone under Chen Quanzhong was killed. Even Zou Zheguo, who had experienced life and death several times, had his throat slit with a sharp blade and died on the spot. Only Chen Quanzhong and Wang Yisi were left fighting hard.
But I heard Huicheng say: "General Chen, I think you are a good man, why not surrender? I will protect you two from death."
"Hahaha... I, Mrs. Chen, have already been the king of subjugation once. How can I surrender again? A man is destined to die, so why bother to say more."
"I am willing to surrender..." Wang Yisi threw down his weapon and knelt on the ground.
Huicheng turned around and looked at Wang Yisi, his heart full of joy. He knew Wang Yisi's ability. It was naturally a good thing that he was willing to surrender and use it for himself.
"Wang Yisi, you coward, how dare you betray me." Chen Quanzhong didn't expect Wang Yisi to surrender and couldn't help but cursed.
Wang Yisi didn't answer, and said to Huicheng: "The villain has too much eyesight to recognize the superiors. I beg you to take me in. From now on, the villain will definitely be a mess and repay the favor of not killing the superiors."
It turns out that Huicheng is a confidant of the current emperor Zhu Di. It was a lie to leave the Jinyiwei, but it was true to secretly work for Zhu Di. Now that the secret of the Tianwan treasure has finally been found, he has naturally revealed his true form. Seeing that Wang Yisi surrendered to him, he was happy, so he tied up Chen Quanzhong and prepared to send him back to the capital to claim credit.
After cleaning up here, he made a plan in his mind. Now, he has to wait for everyone on the mountain to finish their troubles before going down the mountain. Otherwise, if he encounters them on the way, he will be in trouble. Therefore, you must find a place to hide.
Unexpectedly, just a few steps away, I saw a figure leaping out from the stone beside the path. He slapped two palms in succession, killing a Dongchang guard with one palm and knocking down Yu Zhenshan with the other palm. That black iron broadsword.
Huicheng took a closer look and saw that it was Xu Hao. Now, his skin was torn on both sides and he could no longer pretend. Huicheng said nothing and had no choice but to bite the bullet and attack Xu Hao. Only then did the factory guards react and quickly organized a formation to besiege Xu Hao.
Although Xu Hao was heroic, he was seriously injured in the battle at Duoyunding. However, these imperial eagle dogs here were difficult to capture quickly. He had no choice but to use a few feints to break away from the battle circle and escape through the undulating mountains and bushes. And go. Although there is no treasure map, but with the key to getting the Black Iron Broadsword, the map is not so important. With his own memory, he still knows the entrance to the underground palace and the general direction of the map.
Although Huicheng was angry, he also knew how powerful Xu Hao was, and it was not easy to pursue him. Fortunately, he still had the treasure map in his hand, even if Xu Hao had memorized the treasure map and knew the entrance to the underground palace. , but without detailed map comparison, it may be difficult to explore freely in the underground palace. If things go wrong, you can secretly follow Xu Hao into the underground palace and organize more people, so you are not afraid of not getting the treasure.
Little did he know that Xu Hao couldn't warm up the black iron sword either. After leaving Huicheng, he hid deep in the valley alone, but was intercepted by Ning Wang Zhu Quan and his four guards.
Although he knew he was outmatched, Xu Hao still refused to surrender and started fighting with the four men while dragging his injured body. Due to serious injuries and exhaustion, he soon became no match for the four of them. Within a few rounds, he was knocked to the ground and the Xuantie Sword was taken away by Zhu Quan.
The four guards, under Zhu Quan's signal, were about to kill Xu Hao, but when they heard the Buddha's name "Amitabha", a monk flew down and stood in the middle. After a closer look, it was Chen Mo. Later, another person came with a loud proclaiming the name of Buddha, it was Xu Hao's brother Xu Ying.
Zhu Quan recognized Chen Mo. Kuang had also helped Huizhong and others a lot before. He didn't know why he brought someone who looked similar to Xu Hao. He was stunned for a moment and said: "The master is an eminent monk outside the world. Could it be that he is also the same?" Are you here to seize the knife?"
Chen Mo shook his head and said: "No, the poor monk only came here for Benefactor Xu and nothing else. I hope His Highness Prince Ning will let this person go."
Zhu Quan didn't want to have a grudge with Chen Mo. Since he didn't come here to seize the sword, he immediately agreed to keep Xu Hao. Just as he was about to leave, he couldn't help but turned around and asked, "I heard that Xu Hao has done a lot of evil. I wonder why Master...?"
Chen Mo said: "Monks are merciful, just like politicians govern the world with benevolence and filial piety. Why do you ask? I just advise your highness, there are times in life that must be there, and there are times in life that don't force it."
Zhu Quan didn't ask any more questions and went down the mountain with the four guards and the black iron sword.
Brothers Xu Ying and Xu Hao met again, but Chen Mo stayed away.
"What are you doing here now? Looking at my jokes?" Xu Hao was not angry.
Xu Ying did not blame, just said: "When the chessboard has been determined, the chess pieces are just chess pieces no matter how hard they work. Only those who become chess players are qualified to talk about right and wrong, success or failure."
"Haha... So, brother, are you a chess player or a chess piece?" To be honest, Xu Hao couldn't understand Xu Ying's so-called realm. He thought more than once that if the two brothers had joined forces, they would have gotten the treasure long ago.
Xu Ying did not answer directly, but said slowly: "Sometimes, the bad things you think are not really bad, they may be good things that others want, and the good things you think may be your own bad things." After that, Without waiting for an answer, he walked straight away.
Xu Hao was still confused when he heard it. Although he felt as if he had realized something, when he thought about it carefully, he realized nothing. Maybe those monks liked this.
Now, the treasure map is gone, the Black Iron Sword is gone, and the brothers in the Eighteen Villages of Huaiyuan are gone. He is alone again, going around in circles, but still has nothing. Although Xu Hao is unwilling to admit defeat, he faces For my brother, he still feels discouraged when he thinks that the Tianwan treasure is about to fall into the hands of others and that there is little hope for the restoration of the country.
While he was confused, a voice sounded.
"Do you believe in yourself?" The voice was rich, powerful, soft and pure, as if it came from beside you, but also seemed to come from a hundred miles away.
Xu Hao looked up and looked around, and suddenly found a person standing behind him. I saw that the man was wearing a mask and a burqa. The background color of the mask and burqa was half black and half white. Even the slightly exposed cuffs were one black and one white.
Xu Hao searched his brain quickly, unable to determine which sect or person this was.
"No need to think about it, you will know who I am right away." The man chuckled.
"So, who are you?" Xu Hao couldn't help but ask. He really wants to know who this person is. After all, the person who can appear behind him so quietly must be a terrifying person. If he loses his life here, he must at least know whose hands he lost his life in. .
"To be honest, I'm very optimistic about you. Although you are a bit stupid, you are very competitive in martial arts." The man was still talking to himself.
Xu Hao couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when he said this, so he said loudly: "If you are here to provoke me, please stop going around and do it directly."
The man laughed again and said: "I will never do anything to anyone who can talk. If I do it, it will either kill someone or save someone. How troublesome. I tell you, I just want to invite you to play a game." "
When Xu Hao heard that it was a game, he couldn't help but became a little more interested, and asked suspiciously, "Tell me, what game are you playing?"
But the man said: "You can play games if you want. According to the rules, you must first become my disciple."
"You teach? What do you teach?"
"According to the rules, you must first join my sect, and then we will inform my sect of its name and teachings."
"Since I'm not willing to tell you the name of the religion, I'm afraid it's some unknown religion, so why should I join?" Xu Hao couldn't hold it in any longer. This is some kind of bad religion, and it doesn't matter if you don't join.
The man did not answer, but stretched out his right hand, held up a ball of yellow gas, and sent it forward. Before Xu Hao could stop him, it had already entered his body.
Xu Hao's body trembled, and he suddenly felt a stream of true energy flowing around his body, reaching the eight extraordinary meridians. After a while, the internal and external injuries he had suffered earlier were much better, and his whole body was full of strength.
Xu Hao was shocked. With his lifetime skills, it was absolutely impossible to recover his injured body so quickly. This man actually had such ability. It seemed that this sect was extraordinary.
The man continued: "From the point of view of my teaching, most of the martial arts learned by ordinary people are complicated and complicated. Even if they learn from one person, they cannot avoid it. Most people who learn martial arts learn it over time and over time. In this process, Because I do not have a comprehensive understanding of my own talents and martial arts, I will inevitably produce a lot of useless skills and even create many obstacles. Not to mention that many people practice other martial arts at the same time, and it is impossible to be pure and dedicated. In view of this, I teach The self-created marrow cleansing method first evaluates a person's martial arts foundation and understanding, and then teaches students according to their aptitude, so that they can learn a set of pure, dedicated and excellent exercises in a short period of time."
Xu Hao listened silently, and suddenly felt that this view was really unheard of, but it had its own truth, and he was doubtful at the moment.
Seeing that Xu Hao did not express his position, the man continued, "Sir, you should know Feng Ji. To be honest with you, he is also a member of my teaching. If you want to win the Tianwan Treasure, you must fight with this person. Based on my observation." , this person’s current skill is no longer inferior to sir.”
Xu Hao was even more surprised when he heard this. No wonder Feng Ji's martial arts skills were so terrifying after not seeing him for a few months. However, since he has given up martial arts, why can he still use the skills he learned before? Xu Hao couldn't help but ask. After all, whether he can practice his original martial arts is what he wants to know.
"Haha... Although this marrow cleansing method abolishes the original martial arts, it can record all of them. This can also be regarded as the culprit of entering the religion. If you are willing, after evaluation, you can remove the roughness and essence from the original martial arts and practice it again. , its power will be even greater. This Feng Ji has joined our sect more than ten years ago, but what he learned is not martial arts. He only recently switched to our sect and accepted the marrow cleansing."
Xu Hao suddenly realized, "Are you the Zongheng Sect?" Although he was surprised, he completely convinced himself, "Forget it, tell me, what should I do now?"
