Fengguixu

Hanging mirror peak, the cliffs are as clean as a mirror, and the mountain road is absolutely dangerous.

There are several flying pavilions on the top of the peak, all of which are three stories high, with white walls and black tiles, cornices and bucket arches, which are tens of feet high.There are hundreds of steps between the pavilions and the pavilions are connected by cable bridges.The bridge is only three feet wide, like icy thin silk, floating in the air.

It's the night when the clouds bloom and the moon shines bright, and the slender shadows are not born.

On the bridge, a white figure walked from east to west, holding a sword unhurriedly.Looking up, the surroundings are empty, the clouds are born on the soles of the feet, and the dangerous Lingling has nothing to rely on, but he has an ordinary state of mind, like walking in a garden.The sleeves of the clothes are hunting, fluttering like immortals.

Under the melting moonlight, the Buddhist scriptures pavilion is brightly lit.

Pushing the door open, the creaking sound caused the cat lying on the porch to turn its pointed ears.

"Ding Ding Dang Dang", there was a chaotic sound in the pavilion, and the night watch disciple stood up with his sword in his arms.Because he got up too fast, his figure was unstable and swayed. When he saw the person coming, he patted his chest and let out a long sigh of relief: "It's you, Junior Brother Shen!"

"It's me." Shen Xu turned around and closed the door.

"I was scared to death, and I didn't make a sound when I walked! I thought Master, an old man, couldn't sleep and came to check the post in the middle of the night!" Chang Xun grumbled and complained, bending over to pick up the little thing that fell on the ground in a panic Got up, stretched lazily, and glanced over, "Why, it's your turn in the second half of the night?"

Shen Xu nodded.

The younger brother never talked much, so Chang Xun took it for granted, after a few casual greetings, he packed up his things and prepared to leave, and the gadgets in his hands made clanging sounds as they moved.

Chang Xun noticed Shen Xu's inquisitive eyes, and thought of a good idea as soon as he rolled his eyes, stretched his arms and spread his palms, and brought the gadget under Shen Xu's nose, and asked, "Have you seen this?"

Shen Xu shook his head.

Chang Xun knew that he would not go down the mountain all year round, and besides practicing swords, he would meditate every day, and it was rare to see him.So he pretended to be enthusiastic about charity: "This is called Jiulianhuan. It's a small piece for children at the foot of the mountain. It's not difficult, but it takes some thought. Here, do you want to try it?"

"Nine Links?" Shen Xu took it, fiddled with the small bell hanging on the ring with his fingertips, and looked at his face, seemingly curious.

Seeing him taking the bait, Chang Xun couldn't help being complacent.

To say that this gold-plated Nine Rings was bought by my junior sister from the mountain half a month ago, at that time she said that whoever can untie the Nine Rings, she will accompany him to practice swords for a month.Little Junior Sister Bingxue is smart, beautiful and pretty, daily sword practice is boring, if she is accompanied by a beautiful woman, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing in the world?

The brothers are scrambling to solve the Nine Links.

But this unlucky thing looks simple, but it is connected with each other. It seems to be deadlocked but contains vitality.

After three days and three nights of untying, Chang Xun's eyes turned red, and the nine rings became eight rings, then seven rings, and then back to nine rings. He was so angry that he wanted to chop it up with an axe.

Now meeting Shen Xu, the master often praises Junior Brother Shen for his talent and wisdom, he has no distractions, and among the disciples in the future, he will definitely be the most accomplished in martial arts.Chang Xun, as a senior brother, has naturally been grievous about this for a long time, now that he seizes the opportunity, he must kill the prestige well.

He predicted that Shen Xu would not be able to unravel the Nine Links for a while, and at that time, he pretended to comfort him but insinuated, reminding his master that his favor for him was just pity that he was the youngest and had a miserable life experience, and he himself had to admit Know what level you are, don't get too flustered.When you go out, you can tell your junior sister that even a smart person like Junior Brother Shen can't do it, and no one in the Jiange can understand it.That way, it wouldn't be a shame if he couldn't solve it himself.

Hey, the best of both worlds.

Chang Xun stroked his nose with his hands, wishful thinking loudly, and secretly laughed.

Just as he was thinking about how to "prompt" Shen Ruins gracefully and gracefully later, he suddenly heard a few soft "clicks".

He lowered his head to see that Shen Xu was holding the nine-ring set in his left hand and the untied gold-plated pendulum in his right hand, looking at him intently: "Senior brother, does this count as untie?"

"Ah." Chang Xun stood stiffly on the spot, staring at Shen Xu's hands like a goose with a straight neck.

"Senior brother?" Shen Xu called out.

Chang Xun was startled, as if waking up from a dream: "You, are you untied now?"

"Seems to be."

"Really?" He rubbed his eyes in disbelief.After a long time, he murmured, "Yes, that's how it's solved."

"It's really not difficult." Shen Xu returned the things to him, and commented, "But it's more exquisite than that, it's still interesting, and can be used as a daily pastime."

Chang Xun: "..."

"Senior brother, your complexion is different, are you feeling ill?"

"No, no, I'm just tired. You go to check, I'll go back to my room and sleep."

"Brother, go slowly."

Shen Xu sent the dazed Chang Xun away, stood there for a moment, heard the sound of vain footsteps fading away, then turned around, picked up the candlestick, and walked upstairs.

As usual, he inspected the library floor by floor, not letting go of any corner. When he reached the corner of the second floor and the third floor, he suddenly felt an abnormal surge of air above his head.The air flow was originally very slight, it was hard for ordinary experts to detect it, but because the candle in his hand was slightly to the left by three points, the place was closed without a window, he stood still, his hand was extremely steady, his breath and the candle's breath intertwined with each other. Do not interfere.

So where did the flame's three-point deviation come from?

As soon as the idea came up, the wind of the palm on the top of the head came, and the candle was extinguished.

Before he stepped on the ground, he threw the candlestick, kicked off the steps, and jumped back.The move of Rabbit Rise and Falcon Fall was already extremely fast, but the lightness skill of the gentleman on the beam was far superior to him, a red shadow flashed in front of his eyes, and the man raised his palm and hit him face to face.

Shen Xu raised his palm to meet him.

In the dark, the two palms intersected and there was a snap.Shen Xu took a step back.The second palm came one after another, and Shen Xu took the opportunity to return a move. The two palms collided, and a domineering force rushed from the palm to the chest through the arms, and the blood in the body suddenly surged.That's another step back.

Before he had time to catch his breath, the third palm came straight to his face.

These three palms were as fast as one palm, forcing Shen Xu to retreat three steps in a row, the bloody smell gushed straight into his throat, turned into a hot stream, and dripped from the corner of his mouth.He used all his internal energy to resist with all his heart, between life and death, he had no time to see the face of the enemy.

"Huh? Can you actually receive three palms from me?"

After striking three palms, the man opened his mouth, his voice was lazy and melodious, it was indistinguishable between male and female.

Shen Xu knew that he hadn't tried his best to give in, otherwise if he didn't stop here, he would be killed by three palms again.

"Who's here?" He suppressed the surging blood in his chest.

"Hmph, you don't deserve to know the name of this deity."

"Trespassing into the Sutra Pavilion without authorization, why?"

"I'm free, let's go for a stroll."

Because of his duty, he had to ask, and after the questioning, nothing came out, so Shen Xu had nothing else to say.

After a moment of silence, the opponent obviously didn't want to leave yet, so he slowly drew his sword.

"You still want to fight?" The man hid in the dark and sneered, "You can't beat me."

"Shouldn't you fight if you can't fight?" Shen Xu said, his voice was clear and cold, with a flick of his wrist, Bai Ying stabbed straight towards the place where the voice was with a sword light.

The figure didn't run or evade, he didn't lean to one side, when the tip of the sword was close to the outer layer of his clothes, he stretched out his right palm, aimed at the tip of the sword, and pushed it straight.

Seeing that the long sword was about to pass through his palm, he turned slightly sideways, turned his palm into a standing position, and pushed his three fingers on the blade of the sword.

Shen Xu knew that if he used this tactic well, it would definitely urge his internal force to break his sword, so he hurriedly withdrew, the tip of the sword swayed, stepped on a strange door, took a slanted front, first slashed his neck, then turned to stab his waist halfway threat.The change of this trick is a matter of course, just by hearing the wind, you can know that the momentum is coming.But when it fell into place, it turned out to be empty.

There is not even a shadow in the original place, the other party's lightness kung fu has been perfected, his figure is like a ghost, like a ghost, he comes and goes, and disappears like a light smoke in an instant.

At this time, the moonlight coming in from the window pane behind him was blocked, Shen Ru felt something in the silence, reversed the hilt of the sword, and stabbed back sharply.Before the elbow was bent, the person behind him was already close to him, his hand was like lightning, he grabbed the wrist of his right hand holding the sword, and immediately clasped the gate of life with two fingers.

Shen Xu felt his wrist go numb, and he was about to let go of the long sword.

"Knowing that you can't beat him, you still want to fight. Are you a fool? Did you just unravel the Nine Chains just because of luck?"

The warm breath breathed out in the ear, close at hand, like a poisonous snake spewing out a letter, making people's hairs stand on end.

But the man was full of smiles, trying to coax, "Forget it, I am eager to love beauty. For the sake of your beauty, I won't kill you. In this way, just tell me where the 'Living Sword Art' is hidden, and I'll give you a look!" let you go, okay?"

As he said that, the other hand scraped Shen Xu's face with his fingers.

How slutty and frivolous!

Shen Xu frowned, loosened his right hand, and the long sword fell to the ground with a clatter.

"Are you disarming and surrendering? It's so good, and with me..." The man thought that Shen Xu would just give up and surrender, his hands loosened, but Shen Xu made a "play hard to get" move, reaching for the sword with his toes With a hook around the hilt, the long sword jumped up in place, and he took advantage of the situation to grab it back with his left hand.As soon as he grasped the sword, the door of life was still pinched in his hand, and he directly grabbed the opponent's throat with his backhand.

The man chuckled playfully, avoided the sword edge and released Shen Xu.

Shen Xu turned around, only vaguely saw a bright red spread his arms under the hazy moon, and slid out backwards. The sliding distance was far away, and the beauty of the movement was like a phoenix spreading its wings, soaring through the air, wandering gracefully and leisurely.

He was startled, but forgot to make a move.

"You are not afraid of death." The man said contemptuously, "You still want to die with this deity."

Shen Xu said indifferently: "If you die sooner or later, you have to die. If you don't die today, you will die tomorrow. If you don't die tomorrow, you will die in the future. What are you afraid of?"

"But let's see who dies at the hands of me." The man smacked his lips. "Death at the hands of an unknown person like you, I'm terrified to death, and I'm so afraid of death that I don't want to die."

To die is to die, to fight with a tiger and to be bitten to death is to die, to poke a hornet's nest and to be stung to death is also to die, and one will know nothing after death, so what difference does it make by who dies and in what way?

Shen Xu thought so in his heart, but he didn't intend to argue with words, so he fell silent.

Although the opponent didn't make another move, Shen Xu still didn't dare to slack off a bit. He held his sword across his chest, focused on his guard, and felt that the opponent was sizing him up carefully in the dark.

"what's your name?"

Shen Xu heard him ask in silence.The voice of this pair of voices uses internal strength to the right level, low and soft, making it impossible to tell whether it is a man or a woman, and it is obvious that he does not want to reveal his identity.

"In the sinking ruins."

Shen Xu was open-minded in his heart, never bothered to hide evil, and answered generously.Besides, he knew that with the opponent's martial arts, it was not difficult to find out his identity. He could easily find out by just grabbing a Jiange disciple and knocking on his head repeatedly.

"Are you the disciple of the old man who is not as good as Feng?" the man asked again.

Shen Xu said seriously: "You insult my master."

"So what if I'm humiliated?"

"You kill me today, if you don't kill me, I will kill you tomorrow."

The man seemed not expecting Shen Xu to be able to utter wild words like this when he couldn't beat others, and he couldn't stop laughing: "I not only insulted your master, I also scolded your master ancestor! You Jiange Temple little demon wind big pond shallow king eight more, Old Wang Ba Xiao Wang Bazhong does not slip Autumn Thieves Wang Ba smelly gathered together, especially mixed with Yan Qinghe's big cow dung, it is even more stinky! The smell is unstoppable! He died because of practicing evil skills that day. , It’s really a worthy death! I’m so happy! Haha! Haha! Haha!”

His laughter used up [-]% of his internal strength, Shen Xu could only feel the crazy laughter coming from all directions, his eardrums were about to be shattered, and his internal organs were all stirred up.

This person is probably crazy.

Shen Xu made a judgment in his heart, so he didn't listen to those crazy words, and only focused on luck to resist the strong internal force mixed in the other party's voice.

The lunatic laughed for a while, maybe he thought it was boring to laugh alone, so he stopped: "Hey, are you the one with the best martial arts among the apprentices who are not as good as the wind?"

Shen Xu didn't answer.

He doesn't talk to madmen.

"If you don't answer, you will acquiesce." The lunatic said to himself, "I searched the entire Sutra Pavilion today and found the Sword of Breathing Breath, presumably the sword manual is not here at all. According to the rules, the Sword of Breathing Breath is only handed down to the head of the Jiange Pavilion , It’s too early to meet, when he passes it on to you, you will too. Hey, let me discuss something with you. If you learn it, can you show me it?”

Shen Xu naturally did not answer.I thought to myself, this person hid in the Sutra Pavilion and searched through the books on the upper and lower floors of the Jiange Pavilion, but he never taught anyone to find out that his martial arts are really amazing.

"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your agreement." The lunatic's tone of voice became joyful, but then fell again, and he started to worry about himself, "Tsk, it's not good, your level is too low now, when will you be able to do it?" Touch the threshold of the successor head? If the wind is not as good as that fellow will not die, you are too young, and you will be embarrassed for a day. , let’s do this, I’m condescending, and I’ll help you now!”

Shen Xu felt that there was something strange in his words, and before he could think deeply, a red shadow flashed before his eyes, and his left and right temples felt a bit of coolness, but the man had already rushed to him, with two fingers vacantly resting on his temples .

"you……"

Shen Xu uttered a horrified sound, and suddenly there was a piercing pain from behind his eyeballs, like an ice pick viciously gouged into his eye sockets.

In a blur, there was only time to catch a glimpse of the plain Adam's apple protruding from the man's neck, and he fell into darkness from then on.

The author has something to say: Yes, that’s right, this red-clothed psychopath is our attack on the king (Wang Tian)
