Toad Palace Spring and Autumn

The morning bell rang, and all the disciples of Toad Palace were on standby. This was the highest state of Xie Jianfeng's combat readiness, and it was also the time when the defense of the dungeon was weakest.

The entrance of Nanling Water Prison is located in the shade of the mountain, less than ten miles away from Lanyue Pavilion. There is an underground river in the prison, which is damp and damp all year round.If ordinary people were imprisoned here, they would die within a month, but Ning Huaishhang has been in this ghostly place for half a year.

He was born in a famous family outside the Guan. When he was weak and sick, he was sent to the sect of Wei Yazi, a well-known friend, by his parents. He was taught by him to bathe with medicine all the year round, supplemented by the Xuanmen Hunyuan mental method, and he cultivated a body of pure yang energy, which is difficult to suffer. invade.Therefore, as long as he works hard to cultivate himself and strengthen his foundation, the extreme cold air in the water prison will not affect him much.Recalling that on the battlefield back then, he was overwhelmed by the man who looked exactly like Baili Yunxiao, and out of ulterior selfishness, he was arrested without a fight.However, the long wait did not bring any more evidence. He had something to worry about in his heart, and as time passed, his brows were filled with worry.

He has been waiting, waiting for that person to appear again.Today, however, his prideful patience has all but faded away.

When Baili Yunxiao swam out of the dark river, Ning Huaishang was not happy, but rather stunned.

He couldn't figure out how a person could come out of the dark groundwater like a fish?

Baili Yunxiao saw his surprise, but was not in a hurry to explain, and stretched out her wet hand to grab Ning Huaishang.

Ning Huaishang hid for a while.

"Who are you?"

Because of staying in the dungeon where the sun is not seen for a long time, his complexion is so pale that he is not alive, but the pupils of his eyes are as black as ink, and the vigilant expression at this moment deepens this sharp contrast.Baili Yunxiao's heart ached when he saw it, and he said hoarsely: "...Brother, you are tired of suffering for me."

"You, what did you call me?"

"Brother, it's me, Yunxiao, don't you recognize me?"

Ning Huaishang remained silent for a long time, his eyes slightly complicated.

"Come with me, the juniors are still waiting for you at the foot of the mountain."

Baili Yunxiao went to drag him up again as he spoke.

This time Ning Huaishang did not refuse, but said: "I don't know how to swim."

Baili Yunxiao closed his eyes slightly, brushed a few strands of hair that were still dripping, and said leisurely: "You don't need to swim, let's go out through the door."

Ning Huaishang was startled, and couldn't help frowning, "There are people at the door, be careful to scare the snake."

Baili Yunxiao didn't care much, "It's just a few pawns." After finishing speaking, he bent down and picked up a huge black boulder from the ground, swung it up and threw it towards the dark river, making a loud and dull water sound.

"Huh? You are..."

Before Ning Huaishang could finish his sentence, Baili Yunxiao had already grabbed him and jumped up, burrowing into a small space above the stacked stones, only using his hands and feet to resist and crawl.

The people outside heard the noise and rushed in to find out. Looking around, they only saw the sparkling water, and there was no one in the prison.

"Oops! Ning Huaishang is gone!"

"How could a living person suddenly disappear? Look for it!"

……

It's hard to see anything in a dark place.Fortunately, the separated rock formations were not long and the route was simple. Baili Yunxiao had strong hands and feet and climbed very quickly.Ning Huaishang followed closely behind with great difficulty. After a while, both of them had climbed to the outer edge of the rock formation, and the light of the sun could be faintly seen in front of them.

"... Step back a little bit." Baili Yunxiao's voice was very low, and his breath was a little unsteady.

Ning Huaishang did as he said, as if he understood his intention, he raised his hand to cover his eyes with a little hesitation.

Almost at the next moment, there was a loud bang in his ear, and the thin stone wall had been crushed by Baili Yunxiao's palm, revealing a clear sky.

"They will come after them in no time, we need to be fast."

Baili Yunxiao jumped off the rock wall first, and waved to Ning Huaishang who was on top.

Ning Huaishang didn't care about the glare of the sun, so he also jumped down. When he landed, he staggered a little, but fortunately, Baili Yunxiao gave him a hand in time.

Just now he didn't feel it in the dark, but now Ning Huaishang realized that Baili Yunxiao was covered in mud when he was exposed to the bright sunlight.

Baili Yunxiao didn't care about this, and dragged him all the way around the river valley, going straight to the depths of the valley.

Further forward is the boundary of Lanyue Pavilion. Seeing that the direction is wrong, Ning Huaishhang hesitated and said, "Aren't you going down the mountain? Why are you..."

The wet clothes mixed with sand and mud were very sticky on the body, Baili Yunxiao simply unbuttoned the coat and put the coat on his wrist, and replied unhurriedly: "Most people at the foot of the mountain have been poisoned by the smoke of the soul. Get the antidote and go down the mountain."

Ning Huaishang looked up into the distance, but saw a waterfall in front of him that fell straight down for nine days, and a small building was shaded by verdant green trees, which had a unique and refreshing feeling of leisure in the mountains.

"If I'm not mistaken, the Lanyue Pavilion is ahead?"

Baili Yunxiao smiled and did not answer.Ning Huaishang was full of suspicion, but he also saw that he seemed unwilling to talk more, so he stopped asking.

As soon as their figures appeared, two figures ran out of the attic like a gust of wind.

"Brother Nineteen! How did you make it look like this? It's so dirty!"

"You're back! Tell me and Ling'er to wait!"

It was Ling'er and Yusheng, the servants of Lanyue Pavilion who were talking, they circled around Baili Yunxiao, talking non-stop, but their eyes glanced at Ning Huaishang behind him from time to time.

Baili Yunxiao raised his hand and patted Ling'er's clean and jade-like forehead. He didn't use any strength at all. He just smiled softly: "You know I'm dirty, so why don't you help me get a change of clothes? I don't have much time!"

Ling'er pouted, "Just go, I'll keep all your old clothes! Just wait!"

After she trotted all the way into the house, Baili Yunxiao said to Yusheng seriously: "Where is the antidote I want?"

Yu Sheng hurriedly offered the square altar in his hand, "This is the medicinal powder prepared overnight by the Pavilion Master, and he specially instructed to dissolve it in warm water before taking it. Take it quickly."

Baili Yunxiao took the medicine altar and gave it to Ning Huaishang, "There are not many people guarding the mountain gate at the moment, you take the medicine altar down the mountain first, there is a big house in the woods at the foot of the mountain, all of us over there."

Ning Huaishang was watching the words and expressions, he already understood the relationship between Baili Yunxiao and Mei Luo in his heart, so he didn't want to say anything, just asked: "What about you?"

"I'm covered in mud, and I have to clean it up before I can go down the mountain. Besides, I still have something to say to Mei Luo, and I won't be able to leave for a while." Baili Yunxiao suddenly remembered something, "Remember, let them obey Know the medicine and don't act rashly, everything will be discussed after I go down the mountain."

"I know, be careful yourself."

Ning Huaishhang knew that saving people is like putting out a fire, so he didn't delay any longer and hurried down the mountain.

After walking all the way, he did not encounter strong guards. Ning Huaishhang easily broke through the line of defense, and soon found the place Baili Yunxiao had said he would stay.

Several juniors of Ziqing Sword Sect recognized Ning Huaishang, they were both surprised and delighted.Ning Huaishang stabilized everyone's emotions, and ordered several juniors to fill up the potion and distribute it to the poisoned comrades. After a while, the effect of the potion was immediate, and everyone gradually recovered their energy.

"My celestial master is in charge of teaching Yuzhenzi, thank you Ning Daxia for saving your life."

"The Taoist priest is serious. This medicine was obtained by my junior brother Baili Yunxiao, and someone like Ning dare not take credit for it."

Yu Zhenzi stroked his long beard lightly, shook his head and said: "Hero Ning is so humble. I have heard of your name in the narrow sense, and I deserve a word of thanks. It is a great fortune for the martial arts world that you have returned safely this time, but why did you not see you?" Li Shaoxia? Could it be that something difficult happened to him?"

"To be honest, I don't know much about what my junior brother is doing." Ning Huaishang sighed, "After he rescued me, he asked me to take the antidote and go down the mountain. I don’t know why.”

Hearing this, Ye Yulou couldn't help asking suspiciously: "Could it be that he has some unspeakable secrets?"

Lei Dong interjected: "Who cares about his unspeakable secrets, anyway, we can't leave the little brother alone! Why don't we go up the mountain and find out!"

"Brother Lei's words are wrong! The last time we went up the mountain, we fell into a trap and almost died of poisoning. This time we can't be careless!"

"Well... I think this plan is feasible." Yu Zhenzi pondered for a while, "Ning Daxia led many heroes to fight against the mountain not long ago, and they must be familiar with the mountain. With Ning Daxia leading the way, we can avoid falling into the trap."

As soon as this remark came out, a descendant of the celestial master immediately echoed: "What Master said is very true. As for the smoke of the soul, we have just taken the antidote, so we don't think it will be a fear in a short time!"

When everyone heard this, they all felt reasonable, and said to Ning Huaishang, "I don't know what Xia Xia Ning wants?"

Ning Huaishang thought that Baili Yunxiao was still on the mountain, but he still felt a little uneasy, and changed his mind at this moment: "As far as I know, there is a big event happening in the Toad Palace today, and the defenses everywhere have weakened, so it can be regarded as an attack. This is a good time. Thanks to everyone for not giving up, I am willing to do the work of dogs and horses."

"Great! God help me too!"

"It's better to hit the sun than choose the day, let's set off immediately!"

In this way, the disciples of the seven major sects of martial arts, led by Yu Zhenzi and Ning Huaishang, formed an alliance up the mountain in a mighty manner, and the momentum was like a rainbow for a while.

The gatekeepers of the Toad Palace at the foot of the mountain couldn't resist, and the palace gate was quickly breached, retreating steadily.

The news reached Zhenlong Terrace just as the host, Ruan Kongqi, defected.Everyone in the Toad Palace was in panic, and the morale of the army was greatly lost.

When the Righteous Path Alliance came all the way, the Toad Palace, led by Yue Yinlin and Wen Chuqing, led sixteen disciples to fight urgently.

On this day, Xie Jianfeng slaughtered blood all over the place, the grass and trees in a radius of a hundred miles were destroyed, and the sky and the earth were gloomy.

However, once the horn of battle is sounded, it will never be so easy to stop——
