"Senior, it's you again."
Chen Mobai stepped forward and greeted respectfully.
"Oh? It's you little baby. Come on, sit down and have a drink with the old man."
The old man was the freeloader Chen Mobai met in Long'an City.
"I didn't expect to meet senior again by such a coincidence."
Chen Mobai sat down next to the old man.
"Haha, Wanfulou's wine is famous, and it's not watered down."
After Chen Mobai had a few drinks with the old man, he suddenly asked: "Senior, are you a Qingfeng Sanren?"
"Why do you ask?"
"The movements and techniques you used at will last time are not the skills of ordinary people. Even if you are not Qingfeng Sanren, you must be a famous senior in the world."
"Baby, if the old man wasn't a famous figure in the world, would you stop drinking with me?"
Chen Mobai hurriedly picked up the wine glass and said, "No matter what your status is, Mo Bai will respect you as an elder."
The old man smiled and said, "Your surname is Mo?"
"The junior's surname is Chen and his first name is Mo Bai."
"Which group are you from?"
"No one has any sect."
"The surname is Chen... no sect... not only is he close to the younger members of the Star Sword Sect, but also has several connections with Weiyang Palace... Little baby, who is your master?"
"It's the junior's grandfather."
The old man looked at the iron rod behind Chen Mobai again.
"Is that your weapon?"
Chen Mobai said with a smile: "Yes."
This time the old man didn't speak for a long time, just eating and drinking by himself.
After a while, when the old man stopped talking, Chen Mobai was about to leave.
"Old senior, please use it slowly, I won't disturb you anymore."
Just as he was about to stand up, the old man pinched Chen Mobai's wrist and said slowly after a moment: "Little baby, do you know that true energy has a relative nature?"
After speaking, the old man looked at Chen Mobai meaningfully.
"I know." Chen Mobai replied.
"Some traits are rare in the world, and some traits are a crime no matter which one you have. In addition, Xingjian Sect and Weiyang Palace are among the best sects in the world. If you are too close to these sects, you will inevitably end up one day. Your friends will also get involved in right and wrong, are you prepared for this?"
The old man's sudden question made Chen Mobai hesitate for a long time before answering.
"Baby, I have some stories that you may be interested in. Do you want to hear them?" the old man said with a half-smile.
For some reason, Chen Mobai seemed to feel that the other person's story was closely related to his, so he nodded.
"Help me fill up the wine." The old man said and took out a wine bottle.
Chen Mobai did as he was told without thinking too much. After brewing the wine, he came back but the old man was gone, leaving only the words "Wan Feng Lin" written in water.
In a maple forest on the western outskirts of Ziwu City, Chen Mobai saw the old man again. Just as he was about to step forward to ask questions, a fierce palm wind suddenly roared over. Chen Mobai quickly drew out the iron rod to resist, but the old man's seemingly gentle palm knocked Chen Mobai back several feet until he leaned against a tree. At this time, Chen Mobai was completely confused about the old man's intention. The murderous intention revealed in that palm was very clear, and it was the most oppressive since he entered the world.
"Senior, what does this mean?"
The old man didn't answer, and he was in front of him in just a blink of an eye. When Chen Mobai saw this, he had no choice but to fight with the old man.
"Why are seniors like this? I wonder what makes seniors so unhappy?"
Facing Chen Mobai's questions, the old man still didn't answer silently. The strange thing is that with the old man's skill, if you want to take his life, you don't need a second move, you can easily kill Chen Mobai. If it was just for testing, the murderous intention revealed by the old man was not fake at all.
After less than five moves, the iron rod was thrown aside by Chen Mobai, and then he stood there and gave up: "Senior, if you want to kill me, just kill me."
The old man stopped in front of Chen Mobai with a palm and said, "Are you accepting your fate?"
"Senior's martial arts skills are far superior to mine, and his murderous intention is even more obvious. If he wanted to kill me, I would have died a long time ago. If he hesitates to kill me, he is either testing or playing tricks on others. No matter what the reason is, there is no point in struggling. .”
Hearing this, the old man closed his palm and said: "You seem to be a simple doll, but in fact you are very ghostly."
Chen Mobai looked at the old man, who was also looking at him with a smile.
Then he continued: "Baby, answer a few questions for me first, and then I will decide your life or death. But if you don't tell the truth, then today is the day you die."
"If senior still asks me about my origins, I will tell you everything."
"Those who have asked will not ask again."
"Okay, senior, please speak."
“Do you have any hatred but you don’t know who the enemy is?”
"yes."
"What should you do if you find your enemy and find out that this person's identity is beyond your reach?"
"A gentleman's revenge is never too late."
"No one can give up the idea of revenge?"
"It must be impossible."
"Okay, okay." The old man laughed wildly after hearing this, and then said: "The baby's answer is good, the old man is very satisfied."
"Senior seems to know something about me?"
"Knowing or not knowing, you can think whatever you want. Although you hide it deeply, you can't hide everything after all."
At this time, Chen Mobai hesitated. He felt murderous for the first time, but it soon subsided. He whispered: "Although I don't know what senior is referring to, it doesn't matter whether it has something to do with me. Senior said before that I have a story that I am interested in. I don't know." What is it?"
"Have you heard the saying that 'when the sun and the moon come together, the world will be in chaos'? Do you know that the cause of the prophecy that the world will be in chaos is not the two Bai Wen?"
Chen Mobai was shocked when he heard this.
"What does it mean?"
Just as the old man was about to reply, Murong Tianji and Chi Yuetong suddenly arrived.
"Mo Bai, are you okay?"
"Brother Murong?"
When the old man saw Murong Tianji and Chi Yuetong, he said disdainfully: "People from the northern and southern martial arts circles are already hanging out together?"
"Shameless old man." Chi Yuetong shouted angrily and was the first to attack.
Murong Tianji had guessed the old man's identity before, but Chi Yuetong didn't know it, and it was too late to stop him at this time. Chiyue Tong's martial arts skills are not low among the younger generation, but in front of the old man, he looks like a child and is not taken seriously by the old man at all. After making a few moves, the old man just touched Chi Yuetong's shoulder blade with his fingertips and flicked her away.
Murong Tianji stepped forward to catch Chi Yuetong, returned to his original position and said, "Senior is a famous figure in the martial arts world. Now that he is embarrassing a junior, I fear he will dishonor his reputation."
Hahahahahaha, the old man burst out laughing.
"Little baby, if I want to kill you, are you still standing here?" the old man said to Chen Mobai.
"Won't."
"Baby of the Star Sword Sect, how many moves do you think the three of you can take against the old man?"
"No more than three moves."
The old man nodded and said to Chen Mobai: "Little baby, it seems that we can stop talking today. You should find out what you want to know by yourself. But old man, I am looking forward to you. I will give you something, hoping that you can Old man, I will watch the great excitement before returning to the west."
After that, he threw a walnut-like hollow token to Chen Mobai, then walked aside, grabbed the iron rod, weighed it and threw it back to Chen Mobai, and then quickly disappeared in the maple forest.
"Isn't this the secret message core of the Sanren Gang?" Chi Yuetong looked at the token left by the old man and said in surprise.
"Secret message core?"
"The Sanren Gang holds the most complete and private information in the martial arts world. This secret message core is the token to obtain information from the Sanren Gang." Murong Tianji explained.
"Is there such a sect and token?"
After some explanation, Chen Mobai understood the purpose of the secret message core, but usually the secret message core requires people in the world to buy it from the Sanren Gang in exchange for corresponding information, but Chen Mobai's is different, specifically: I won’t mention the differences for now.
"Wait a minute, is it possible that the old man just now was Qingfeng Sanren?" Chi Yuetong suddenly realized who she had just faced.
"It should be." Murong Tianji replied.
"You already knew who he was, but you didn't tell him just now?"
"I haven't had time..." At this time, Murong Tianji seemed to have made a mistake and felt a little guilty.
"If it's really him, he should be lucky that I'm still alive."
Chi Yuetong let out a sigh of fear.
"By the way, Brother Murong, how did you know I was here?"
"I found out after I returned to the inn and saw that you were gone and asked the waiter. Fortunately, he happened to see the word "water" on the table, otherwise he would not have known where you had gone. Why did Qingfeng Sanren invite you here and what did he say? "
"I don't know why. He attacked me as soon as I came here, but he kept his force at all times. It seemed that he was deliberately instigating him without explaining the reason."
"Is it because you spoke for him in Long'an City?"
Chiyue Tong was still a little shocked, and then continued: "I heard that Qingfeng Sanren is very casual in doing things. If you have met him before, maybe he just felt that he was destined, or he had nothing to do and suddenly became interested."
Murong Tianji had only heard about Qingfeng Sanren and didn't know what kind of character this senior had. Chen Mobai simply asked questions and pretended to be stupid until the end.
The three of them returned to Wanfu Tower again. Along the way, Chen Mobai was thinking about Qingfeng Sanren's intention. He clearly had murderous intentions towards him at the beginning, but he did not kill him, and what was the intention of those words. And whether he should tell Murong Tianji something, although he never asked too much.
Murong Tianji saw that Chen Mobai had something on his mind, so he called out: "Mo Bai?"
"What's wrong, Brother Murong?"
"Are you worried?"
"I..." Chen Mobai hesitated to speak.
"It doesn't matter, just don't say it if you don't want to say it." The two of them had known each other for a long time. How could Murong Tianji not know that Chen Mobai had his own secrets? After contacting him, he decided that Chen Mobai was not a bad person, so he didn't ask much about him.
Chen Mobai felt a little ashamed for his trust in Murong Tianji, but felt warm in his heart.
"Brother Murong, what are you going to do next?"
Murong Tianji and Chen Mobai have experienced a lot in the past few days since they came to northern Sichuan. Now Chen Mobai has nothing to worry about, so he replied: "Let's go back to Master first to check the situation. Many masters from major sects in southern Sichuan have suffered. Someone was killed. Master came to northern Sichuan this time for this matter. Weiyang Palace has already paid a visit. It seems to have little to do with this matter at present. I think maybe I will visit other sects. Your injuries are no longer a problem now. I plan to go back to be with Master for the time being. What do you plan to do?"
"I haven't decided yet, but I should stay here for a while."
Murong Tianji hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, then be careful. I'll come back to you after I'm done."
"Okay, brother Murong, please take care of yourself."
Looking at Chen Mobai's appearance, Murong Tianji noticed that he seemed to have something unspeakable, so he said nothing more and said to Chi Yuetong: "Crimson Fairy, Tianji would like to thank you for taking the trouble to take care of Mo Bai."
"Yes, you can rest assured, but I still like you to call me Miss Chi." Chi Yuetong said, staring directly at Murong Tianji.
Murong Tianji avoided eye contact, nodded, said goodbye to the two of them, and left.
