Sealing Sword

It was the first time for Chu Xiwei to see Shen Wuduan's weapon.

The two entered the small pine forest behind the yard and stood still in an open space. Shen Wuduan turned around and reached into his arms, taking out a pair of gloves.

The whole body is like ice cream in the dark night, as thin as nothing, covering the wrist from between the fingers, Shen Wudu put on these gloves, and said to Chu Xiwei: "Draw the sword."

Chu Xiwei's hand was attached to the handle of the water-cutting knife. The next moment, Shen Wuduan only felt a blur in front of his eyes, neither saw the knife coming out nor heard the sound of the knife, and the blade was already pressing towards the door without making a sound.

Shen Wuduan made a wrong step, he avoided the front for the time being, his right hand held the blade of the knife, the blade rubbed against the glove, there was a sharp sound of gold and stone.At the same time, he bent his elbow with his left hand and hit Chu Xiwei's armpit directly.

Chu Xiwei did not rush, her left hand took advantage of the gap to grab Shen Wuduan's elbow, and at the same time raised her leg and kicked him at the knee, Shen Wuduan changed her posture again, and the two of them seemed to be in a stalemate, but they loosened at the same time hand.

Shen Wuduan was like a ghost, when he was flying back, he suddenly turned back, and in an instant he was rushing towards Chu Xiwei again.This time, he rubbed his palms together like a knife and slashed across Chu Xiwei's neck. Although the latter retreated in time, he also felt a slight coolness slipping down after he stood still.

On the side of his neck where he was touched, a long and narrow cut was made, but it just happened to cut through the skin and it was not considered a serious injury, but it was very close to the main vein.

His eyes fell on Shen Wuduan's hands, and only then did he realize the strangeness of those gloves - there is a thin blade on the side of the palm of both hands, the color is the same as that of the glove as a whole, it is difficult to find at a glance, only when the blade is bleeding To be surprised.

Shen Wuduan was not in a hurry to pursue, he touched his heart, the clothes there had been torn, which happened to be the marks of a knife piercing.

Just now, in a split second, he threatened his life with one hand, and Chu Xiwei also stabbed him with a knife.If Chu Xiwei was one step faster and Shen Wuyuan was more ruthless, maybe one of them would seal his throat when he saw blood, and the other would pass through his heart.

However, Shen Wuyuan stayed seven points, and Chu Xiwei only contributed three points.

The two of them tugged at the corners of their mouths at the same time, kicked their feet and approached each other again, the knives met the blades of their palms, but there was no flying blood when they heard several rings.

Both are the masters of the Hundred Ghosts Sect, and they also practice the "Journey to the Crossroads". Although they do not have the names of masters and apprentices, they have a father-son relationship.In this side-by-side rivalry, although you keep your strength, you don't hold back your hands. There is no worry of life and death, but there is a struggle between life and death.In contrast, Chu Xiwei's internal skills are not as good, and his experience and means are also lacking, but his advantage lies in his flexibility, agility and quick moves.Right now, he happened to have a breakthrough in his state of mind, most of the original impetuousness disappeared, and he was able to attack and defend properly, advance and retreat smoothly, and it was not easy for Shen Wuduan to gain the upper hand.

Chu Xiwei's moves are fierce, but Shen Wudu sees the moves and dismantles them. The more they entangle and fight, the more they fight, the stronger they become.After hundreds of rounds of stalemate between you and me, the two eyes met in the confrontation, the sword was like thunder, and it was as heavy as a mountain. In an instant, the sword and palm met again, and Chu Xiwei pressed the sword on Shen Wuduan's shoulder and neck , Shen Wudu locked the blade in his hand with both palms.

Chu Xiwei frowned, and her wrists trembled to force Shen Wudu's hands away. Unexpectedly, Shen Wudu's palms did not move at all, and his knife could not move at all. to calm down.

Chu Xiwei's internal energy is stronger than Shen Wuduan's, but now it is controlled by a soft force. While horrified, Shen Wuduan's palm slipped and swung, separating the water cutting knife from his hand.

The moment the blade entered the ground, Shen Wuduan grabbed Chu Xiwei's pulse gate with one hand, and pressed his palm against his dantian. Internal force penetrated from these two places. Chu Xiwei immediately turned pale, but he did not rush to resist, but let go. With his own internal strength, Shen Wuyuan's internal strength can carefully walk and explore in the meridians.

The corner of Shen Wuduan's mouth twitched, but cold sweat was slowly oozing from his forehead.

There is a big bottleneck between the sixth and seventh floors of the "Forked Road Sutra". If you cross this barrier, you will have a brighter future.Chu Xiwei's talent is excellent, and he endures hardships and stands hard work. It stands to reason that he should be able to pass this level smoothly, but it is a pity that he is too stubborn and stubborn.

Shen Wuduan watched him strategize in the past two years, and he really recognized this heir in his heart, so he became concerned about the hidden dangers in him.Originally, they had secretly contacted Sun Minfeng to plan to abolish their merits, but Chu Xiwei was knocked out by Duan Qing a few days ago and brought back, Shen Wudu combed the true energy in his body and found some clues.

The two internal forces of "Jinghong Jue" and "Forked Road Jing" were originally intertwined in Chu Xiwei's body, and they would cause troubles from time to time, disrupting his sanity and inner breath, so Shen Wudu gave him the Ice Soul Orb to use this The cold foreign object forced him to calm down.It stands to reason that without the Ice Soul Orb, Chu Xiwei's internal energy is unstable and his mind is floating, and his internal strength should be much more aggressive. Shen Wuduan thought that this bastard had already stepped into the gate of madness.

That's true, but not quite.

Chu Xiwei's aura was indeed agitated a lot, and he was even in danger of getting out of control. However, the hidden wounds and stagnation accumulated in his body over the years began to repair itself during this period of time.

Although people who practice martial arts have strong muscles and healthy bodies, in the midst of licking blood at the edge of the knife and fighting in the rivers and lakes, external injuries and internal injuries pile up like patches. No matter how beautiful the patches are, it is still a damaged body. A certain opportunity is about to leak.

Shen Wudu is old, even though he is in a high position now, he is good at food and clothing, but the hidden wounds accumulated in the early years have begun to show their clues with the aging of the lungs and bones, and they are all indelible pains left by the years. Sun Mifeng can only adjust carefully on the basis of preventing deterioration, so Shen Wudu has rarely done anything in recent years, saying that he is hiding his strength and biding his time, but in fact he mostly cultivates himself.

Compared to him, although Chu Xiwei was young and had a good background, her life in the past ten years was not smooth. Even with him secretly watching over her, it was still extremely dangerous.This kid has had the ruthlessness to smash through the south wall since he was half a boy, not only knowing the hidden dangers of internal skills, but also forcibly co-cultivating, and he is not timid in training competitions or task fights on weekdays, so Shen Wudu said he "Show your sharpness".

You must know that people in this world have always been hurt when their wisdom is extremely extreme, love is deep and lifeless, and it is easy to break just after passing.

Shen Wuduan has always had a headache about how to "soften" Chu Xiwei. It is the nature of young people to be competitive, but if they don't even leave room, they will definitely walk on a single-plank bridge in the future, and will eventually fall into the abyss.

As a result, Chu Xiwei's trip changed unexpectedly.

He still has a fierce demeanor, but he has a little more vitality. Although his emotions are not too expressive, he no longer wears a mask of indifference and alienation, even when he is deliberately teased, he will be like a boy. temper.

However, he is not naive as he lives and goes back. On the contrary, he has become more mature, but he has also learned not to suppress himself, and began to vent his emotions appropriately.

Therefore, when Shen Wudu checked his internal strength, he found that the stagnation of his meridians had been loosened, and the blocked true qi began to flow freely. Although it would explode with emotional instability and internal breath fluctuations, if If you can overcome this level, these accumulated dark wounds will also be soothed because of the thoroughness of the meridians. At that time, prescribing the right medicine can be regarded as a cure for the root cause.

At that time, although Shen Wuduan was surprised to see Duanqing, and his emotions went up and down, but after discovering this abnormality in Chu Xiwei's body, he quickly regained his senses. After a few thoughts, he finally glanced at Ye Fusheng, who was watching here with bated breath.

Seeing this, he almost laughed out loud.

Maybe Ye Fusheng himself didn't notice at that time, when Shen Wuduan was combing Chu Xiwei's qi, there was no expression on his face, only his eyes were fixed, his hands were clenched into fists, Shen Wuduan pretended to be With a frown, Ye Fusheng's aura became more concentrated.

Full of heart and eyes, caring about one person.

Because of this, Shen Wudu, who was going to forcibly abolish half of Chu Xiwei's internal energy at that time, changed his mind.

After all, for warriors, internal strength is the foundation of a body of force. After the abolition of "Jinghong Jue", with Chu Xiwei's talent and the support of Baiguimen, he will be able to improve himself in a short time, but it is too much to do so. too cruel.

In addition to the injury caused by Fei Gong, there was also a blow to Chu Xiwei.

Shen Wuduan planned to do this when he had no choice but to see that Chu Xiwei's mind changed after meeting this person. Although it caused hidden dangers in internal strength, there was also an additional choice. After all, joy outweighed worries.

But the son of a bitch is a clam shell, if you don't beat him well, you will definitely keep your mouth shut.

Shen Wuduan thought to himself that he was a adoptive father after all. Seeing that his granddaughter Qin Lanshang had already taken aim at a dull scholar, it made no sense to turn a blind eye to the young adoptive son.So even if Duan Qing was present at the time, he still whispered in Chu Xiwei's ear: "You only have one life and one chance, don't let yourself regret it."

Although Chu Xiwei closed her eyes and didn't move, she didn't actually fall into a real coma, but half woke up after a moment of fainting. She was just busy fighting against the rioting true energy in her body, and she didn't have the energy to open her eyes to look outside.

Duanqing heard this sentence, and Chu Xiwei naturally heard it too.

Fortunately, Duanqing still has the character of letting nature take its course, letting the younger generation make their own choices before things get out of hand, so he remained silent, while Chu Xiwei quietly opened his eyes when Ye Fusheng helped him out of the door, and with Shen Wudu looked at Ji Mo.

Later, he changed from a domineering high-ranking person to a manipulator with ease today.

Shen Wuduan was very pleased with this, and his inner force traveled through Chu Xiwei's body, and found out the situation of several important points, and then guided his inner force into his body, saying: "Calm down, and see my side clearly. .”

Warriors never open up their dantian veins easily, because once exposed, they are easily controlled by others.Chu Xiwei was able to treat Shen Wudu honestly, firstly because he was a adopted son, which was what he should do; secondly, Shen Wuduan contributed a lot to his success today, and he has nothing to say to others.

However, he did not expect that Shen Wudu would take the initiative to draw his internal energy to explore his dantian.

With a twitch in his heart and a heat in his eyes, Chu Xiwei divided his inner strength according to his words, and followed Shen Wuduan's guidance to explore the direction of his true energy, from the dantian to the limbs, and after passing through the eight extraordinary meridians, it took a long time before both of them withdrew their hands .

Shen Wuduan asked: "Do you understand?"

Chu Xiwei said: "Father's path is similar to mine but different."

"I use the "Jingdao Sutra" as the foundation, and I use hundreds of methods for my own use. It is the road of 'inclusive of all rivers, different routes lead to the same goal'." Shen smiled for no reason, "But you are different. "Jing" as the basis, and then go to study other people's martial arts, it is the way of 'two-pronged approach, adapt to the situation'."

Chu Xi frowned slightly, and Shen Wudu patiently explained: "It's like I was originally a big pit, and a lot of water flowed into it to form a lake. Whether it's a mountain spring or muddy water, it doesn't matter if it's mixed in. It belongs to me... And you are a sapling that took root and sprouted, and finally grew up. Those internal forces added to you are like sunshine, rain and dew, wind and frost swords. Finally, it grows into a big tree of Cen Tian."

After a pause, Shen Wuduan said: "However, when the rivers are exhausted, the vegetation will eventually wither."

"Wouldn't it be a dead end no matter what kind?"

Shen Wuduan asked: "Except for mountains, rivers, vegetation, can people live as long as the sky?"

Chu Xi was slightly taken aback.

"Xiwei, today I'll tell you something." Shen Wuduan took off his gloves, his eyes stern, "The "Forked Road Sutra" actually has a ninth floor, but no one has ever reached it, including its founder."

Chu Xiwei took a breath, and slowly clenched her hands tightly.

Shen Wudu paused and asked: "Do you dare to try?"

"it is good."

Unexpectedly, Chu Xiwei agreed happily, and Shen Wudu raised her eyebrows: "Don't think about it again?"

"People are not frivolous, and I am also an impulsive young man." Chu Xiwei smiled slightly, and blinked narrowly, "What's more, with the strong support of my adoptive father now, if I dare not even promise, I will be happy in the future." How did you take on all this heavy responsibility?"

Shen Wudu clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "What a boy! You are worthy of my son!"

At this moment, a figure suddenly approached like a ghost, Shen Wuyuan stopped laughing, Chu Xiwei also lowered her eyebrows, and turned her head to look, it was Erniang who was supposed to stay behind in Senluo Hall.

Erniang leaned over and saluted, and said: "My lord, Taoist Duanqing is here to visit, and I will wait in the forest of the dead first."

"Duanqing?" Shen Wuduan frowned, "He...brought outsiders?"

The Duanqing couple and Shen Wuduan have known each other for many years, and they have long had the right to freely enter and leave the Nether Valley. Except for forbidden places and important meeting places, they can go to other places. It makes no sense to stay in the forest of the dead and wait.

Unless he didn't come alone, and the person who was traveling with him couldn't even be regarded as a friend of Baiguimen.

Chu Xi asked in a low voice, "Who else is around the Taoist priest?"

"There was a woman in a blue shirt accompanying her." Erniang thought about it carefully, "She is not young, she wears a machete, her movements are treacherous, her inner breath is barely audible, she is a rare master."

Chu Xi frowned slightly, but Shen Wuyuan asked: "That woman...there is a golden bell hanging on the knife, do you have three crescent hairpins in her hair?"

Erniang said: "As the old master said."

Chu Xiwei asked, "Does the adoptive father recognize it?"

Shen Wuduan said: "She is Zhao Bing'e."
