disciple

Two days later, three black horse-drawn carriages were slowly moving forward along the official road. The word "iron" was written in white paint on the airtight iron box, causing passers-by along the way to avoid it, and no one dared to step forward to disturb it.

The wild wolf led two horses and walked to Situ Linyue's side: "Mr. Situ, there is no one in the wooden house. Except for the carriage at Tiejimen this morning, no one walked on the road."

Situ Linyue took a rein from the wolf without saying a word. He took the horse a few steps, stretched out his hand to smooth the hair on the horse's back, stepped on the stirrup, stepped on the horse, turned around and said, "Wolf, The road outside the pass is far and dangerous, so go back."

The wild wolf hurriedly got on his horse and walked alongside him: "Mr. Situ, you can take me with you. Master Zuo was taken captive by the demons. Why don't the wild wolf go to rescue him!"

Situ Linyue gave him a strange look: "Abducted?"

"Yes!"

Situ Linyue sneered and said, "How long are you going to hide it for him? Isn't he a member of the Demon Race?"

"You said... Master Zuo is from the Demon Race?..." Wild Wolf was stunned, "This... how is this possible..."

Situ Linyue had already rode his horse away, and the wild wolf came to his senses, and quickly chased after him with his whip: "Mr. Situ! Mr. Situ... A misunderstanding, this is really a big misunderstanding, Master Zuo can never be from the demon clan people!……"

Situ Linyue slowed down the horse: "How much do you really know about him?"

The appearance of the wild wolf really doesn't look like a lie, could it be that he doesn't know about Zuo Xuange's true identity?

"I...well, in short, Mr. Situ, you believe me, Master Zuo will never be a member of the Demon Race." Ye Lang didn't know how to explain it, so he simply raised three fingers and swore to the sky, "Mr. Situ, Although I haven't been with Master Zuo for long, Fifth Master Zuo is with us... everyone in our village knows that..."

Seeing that Situ Linyue was still unmoved, the wild wolf went all out: "Mr. Situ, the Zuo family is a big family in the capital, and the fifth master is definitely the son of a clean and serious family. He...he really has nothing to do with the demons. ..."

Situ Linyue's complexion finally softened: "A big family in the capital?"

Ye Lang hurriedly covered his mouth: "Mr. Situ, I can't say any more. Fifth Master will kill me if he finds out."

If Xuan Ge is really not a member of the Demon Race, then he is now in danger.

Situ Linyue clenched her hand holding the reins, clamped the horse's belly hard, and rushed out like an arrow off the string.

The wolf followed closely behind, and asked a question: "Mr. Situ, since you thought the fifth master was a member of the demon clan, why did you go to save him?"

"Since he has worshiped me as his teacher, I will never let him go. I will bring him back even to the ends of the earth."

The three airtight iron boxes disappeared after entering Wushan City. On the second day, a convoy of riders suddenly appeared in Yancheng. The man riding the horse at the head had a calm face. Everyone avoided it, and no one knew that this was the Great Protector of the Setting Sun who was famous in Yanbei for the Xunjiang Clan.

Zuo Xuange was half lying in the carriage, with half a bowl of wine in his hand, enjoying a moment of peace, when a gust of wind blew up the thick curtains of the carriage, a figure flashed past in the carriage, Zuo Xuange's eyes moved, The curtain of the side window has been rolled up, and a pale face approached from outside: "Hey, you really don't know how to ride a horse?"

Zuo Xuange frowned, and pulled the rope wrapping the curtains without saying a word, the carriage was dark, and the world was finally clean again.

He looked at the clear and rippling wine in the porcelain bowl, with ripples swaying with the bumping of the carriage, just like the bend of the river that wet the boy's riding boots so many years ago.

"Hey! You can't even ride a horse, how can you be considered a child of the Zuo family?"

"I don't think he even dares to ride a horse. The fourth sister can ride a horse and gallop."

"Hehehe... shy shy."

"Hey, my lord...you get on the horse slowly, don't fall..."

……

"what!"

"Son!"

……

"How did you make Fifth Young Master fall off the horse!"

"Master...the little one should be damned..."

"That's all, Xuan Ge has a different physique since he was a child. He doesn't know martial arts and can't protect himself. In the future, he is not allowed to let Fifth Young Master go to the racecourse."

"Yes!"

……

The carriage stopped slowly, and Zuo Xuange's thoughts also stopped turning along with the wheels. He lifted the curtain in front of him, and the carriage was in a wasteland, surrounded by bare cliffs and stone edges.

Zuo Xuange jumped off the carriage, Qinggui immediately entangled him: "Did you see it, this is Wanggui Palace!"

Between the vast sea of ​​clouds, nine peaks stretch to the sky. Except for the gate of the first peak, which is connected to the flat ground, the bottom of the other peaks is a deep abyss. Towering and imposing.

Along the way, Qinggui happily introduced the topography of Jiufeng to Zuo Xuange, as if he was a guest invited by him to go up the mountain, wishing to show all the rare treasures at home.

"This is the front peak. These three gatekeeper peaks are Wanggui Palace, and they are guarded by Xunjiang disciples layer by layer. An ordinary thief can't even pass the first peak." Qing Gui's face showed a faint complacency.

"This is the inner peak. It is the place where the younger generations of the clan live and practice martial arts. The three peaks represent three levels. The Xunjiang clan respects martial arts, and disciples with good kung fu live on the upper peak."

After entering the fourth peak, there are more and more Xunjiang disciples around. They are laughing and playing, seemingly playing, but in fact, every push and block has a move. It is not too surprising to see Qinggui leading outsiders up the mountain , just nodded at him as a salute, and then dispersed.

At the same time, Zuo Xuange discovered that the higher one goes up, the more dangerous the connection between the peaks becomes. There is a wide stone bridge built between the front peaks, which can allow more than a hundred people to pass side by side, which is convenient for ushering and sending, and also convenient for accidents at the bottom of the mountain. The Xunjiang people gathered quickly.It is really an astonishing miracle to build a stone bridge of such a specification with stones between the two peaks.

But between the fifth peak and the sixth peak, there was only a solitary iron chain bridge left. Walking up it tremblingly made him clenched the iron chain by his side tightly. It is not touching the ground to the opposite side.

The other disciples of the Xunjiang tribe were also very familiar with crossing the iron chain bridge. With a swipe of their toes, they climbed to the sixth peak after a few jumps. It can be seen that what Qinggui said is true, and the disciples who can climb the sixth peak must have good martial arts.

After Zuo Xuange barely crossed the chain bridge, his forehead was already covered with a thin layer of sweat. He is no better than these Xunjiang people who have practiced martial arts since childhood. If one accidentally stepped into the air, he would be buried in this vast mountain.

When he looked at the four iron chains hanging in the air between the sixth peak and the seventh peak, he was completely confused. The four iron chains were parallel to each other, and the lower two were closer together, half a person's height apart. The other two are wider, and the distance between the two peaks is also wider than the previous one, at least more than a hundred feet away. If there is no excellent lightness kung fu, just standing in front of this iron lock will already weaken your legs.

Qinggui was still grinning: "The three peaks in front are the peaks, and the seventh peak is where the best disciples of the seven generations live, that's where my brothers and I live."

Zuo Xuange clasped his fists and said politely: "Further up, I'm afraid it's where the secrets of the Xinjiang tribe are located, so Zuo Xuange won't be able to visit."

Qinggui's smile was even stronger: "It's not a visit, Elder Di said that he arranged for you to live on the seventh peak."

As soon as he spoke, he pulled Zuo Xuange's arm and flew over the iron lock. The mountain wind filled Zuo Xuange's belt, and when he opened his eyes, he landed firmly on the waist of the seventh peak. .

He turned his head to look at the road, there was a dark light in the thick fog, and the four iron chains were swaying between the mountain peaks, it was really easy to get in and out of Wanggui Palace, even the seventh peak made it difficult for him to move an inch.

The mountain peak is hollowed out, and the pavilions and lofts inside are like a small palace. In front of the palace is an open space, with sword marks and knife carvings on the stone walls on the ground.

Sitting on the railing on the second floor, Qing Gui dangled his feet: "Which room do you want to live in on the entire second floor? Except the first room on the right, you can do anything else."

"Why is the first room on the right not allowed?"

"Because that's where I live. Except for that room on the second floor, everything else is empty."

Zuo Xuange only gave him a puzzled look, and Qinggui laughed cheerfully: "Because whoever wants to live on the second floor dares to be woken up by me hearing noises, then I will definitely make him sleepy." Couldn't sleep all night."

After thinking about the lightness kung fu of light ghosts, Zuo Xuange smiled awkwardly: "Then I should not live on the second floor..."

The light ghost floated down and put his arms around Zuo Xuange's shoulders and took him out: "No, I have to protect your safety."

"You? Protect me?"

"That's right." Qinggui nodded innocently, "You can only die by my hands."

Zuo Xuange spread his hands: "Then why don't you kill me now?"

He also didn't understand the logic.

"But I can't take advantage of people's fear." Qinggui blinked his eyes, "I will fight you after you recover, and kill you after you win."

Zuo Xuange rubbed his chin, as if he found a trace of vitality, he bent over as if clutching his stomach in pain: "My body probably won't get better."

Qinggui knelt down and looked up at him: "Don't worry, the best doctor in Yanbei is in Xunjiang, and I will beg him to cure you."

Zuo Xuange laughed more and more reluctantly, if he was killed just to wait for his illness to recover, it would be better if his stomach ailment never recovered.

Qing Gui dragged Zuo Xuange around the peak and walked to the back of the peak, facing another dangerous peak: "That is the eighth peak, where the elders of the clan live."

Qinggui raised his eyebrows at him: "Do you want to go up and have a look?"

"I don't want to." Zuo Xuange turned around and wanted to go back, not to mention the four bare iron chains that made his scalp numb. Do not set foot as well.

"Why don't you have any curiosity? Aren't you interested in our Xunjiang people?" Qinggui performed lightness kung fu and wandered beside Zuo Xuange.

"Not interested." Zuo Xuange seemed to be bored with his game, and his usual smile faded from his expression.

"Why?" The light ghost suddenly blocked his way, staring at his face, as if wanting to see why he suddenly looked like a different person.

Zuo Xuange sighed and said, "Let me put it this way, if it weren't for the fact that I would never go down the mountain again unless I died, would you be willing to tell me so much?"

Without waiting for the light ghost to reply, he went on first: "So, if I am already a dying person, why should I be interested in your Xunjiang clan?"

While the light ghost was in a daze, Zuo Xuange bypassed him and continued walking.

Qing Gui kicked the stone wall in disappointment, and suddenly flew up to Zuo Xuange and grabbed his arm: "What you said is very reasonable, but I still want to take you to see the peak of the Xunjiang Clan!"
