[Sword Three] Mountain Ghost Ballad

Miao had never slept so deeply like this moment.

She felt that she should be awake, but her consciousness had already fallen into chaos. Apart from the boundless darkness in front of her eyes and the uncontrollable exhaustion from her body, she could hardly feel the existence of anything.

Everything around is quiet, no one, no light, no sound.

She tried to speak, but found that in the desperate silence, she couldn't even feel her own existence.

Time passed bit by bit, and Miao couldn't remember how long she had been in the darkness. She felt more and more tired, and her consciousness became more and more blurred, especially caused by the darkness in front of her eyes. The oppressive feeling that came made her feel a little anxious.

At this moment, a ticking sound suddenly sounded, it was the sound of water droplets splashing on the ground, although it was slightly inaudible, it was still noticed by Miao who had been in the dark for a long time.

She carefully discerned the direction of the sound, only to feel that the sound of water in her ears became more and more clear, and slowly, she even vaguely heard intermittent human voices.

"Wake up..."

It seems that someone is calling her name...

"Amiao...wake up..."

This voice is a little familiar, but also a little strange, as if I've heard it somewhere...

"This place is dangerous, you must leave immediately!"

This voice is... Tang Wujue?

Miao identified it for a long time, and finally remembered who the owner of the voice was. She was a little surprised and doubtful, but before she could think about it, a sudden burning sensation came from her arm, which made her cry out in pain.

The moment she made the sound, her consciousness suddenly became clear, and the strength in her body showed signs of gradually recovering.

She sat up suddenly, although her eyes were still pitch black, she could feel her hands moving.

Miao moved her stiff body, and found that the surrounding environment seemed a little cold, so she couldn't help touching it to the side, only to feel that her hands were hard and cold.

At this time, there is still a faint fragrance in the air, which is refreshing and refreshing.

But she sniffed it carefully, and found that although the fragrance was strong, it had a sense of staleness, and there was also a strange smell of decay mixed in it. It seemed a bit weird to match the surrounding cold environment.

Thinking of the strange dream many years ago, Miao's heart tightened, and cold sweat broke out unconsciously.

She opened her right hand, and a cluster of bright flames ignited from her palm. Although it could only illuminate a small area around her, it was enough for her to look at the environment she was in now.

She touched her face, and then carefully checked her body, and she was slightly relieved when she found that she was still the same person and hadn't changed into someone else.

Miao stood up slowly while supporting the flame in her palm with one hand and the cold ground with the other.

She could feel that the place she was in was a bit empty, not the narrow and weird jade coffin in the dream, and the surrounding was quiet, obviously she was the only one there...

She closed her eyes, concentrated her energy, and the flames in her palms turned into a few phantoms, and then the flames flashed, divided into several strands and circled in mid-air, and then turned into strands of fire, like lotus flowers scattered, for an instant Cut through the endless darkness around.

This is an airtight stone room.

The stone chamber is large and exquisite. The ground is paved with jade, and the stone walls are tightly connected. It can be seen that the construction was done with care.

What is puzzling is that although the structure of this stone room is meticulous, the inside is ridiculously empty. Except for the four stone figurines standing in the corner, there is nothing in it, not even a stone lamp.

The place where Miao was standing right now was in the center of the stone room. It was a circular jade platform with a rather long radius. The stone platform was much higher than other places in the stone room, and there were some strange red patterns engraved on the table.

Miao felt that these patterns were quite familiar, but after thinking about them, she had no clue.

where is this...

Why is she here, and where is Mo Yu?

A series of questions appeared in Miao's mind, but she couldn't think of any answers, obviously no one here could tell her.

The last memory in her mind now is the sea of ​​lights in the Lantern Festival market, and Mo Yu's whispers in her ear before she lost consciousness.

She still remembered that that night when she and Mo Yu were upstairs in Zhuque City, she seemed unable to hold back and fell asleep. Although she was in a daze, she could still clearly feel that Mo Yu should always be by her side.

But why when she woke up, she was in a strange place, and Mo Yu had disappeared.

What the hell happened...

Miao raised her head and glanced at the walls and beams of the stone room. There were some red patterns engraved on them, which were exactly the same as the stone platform under her feet. Under the light of the fire, they looked hideous and weird.

For some reason, Miao suddenly felt a bad premonition.

She always felt that if she continued to stay in this cold and weird stone room, something terrible might happen.

You have to figure out a way to get out first!

Miao jumped off the jade platform and came to the only tightly closed jade door in the stone room. Taking a closer look at the surrounding firelight, she found that the stone door was quite thick as a whole, and it was completely embedded in the stone wall. There is no mechanism to open the stone door. If you want to leave this door, the only way is to smash the stone door.

Miao estimated the material and thickness of the stone door, and felt that it would not be too difficult to smash the stone door with a full blow with her current skill, but when she put her hand on the door to investigate, a strange Rhythm suddenly came from under his hands.

Miao felt suspicious, and put her other hand on the stone gate. As expected, there was an obvious sense of beating again, like a human heartbeat, which was quite regular. What surprised her even more was that the rhythm It turned out to be coming from the stone gate.

Could this door be alive?

Or, is there something growing in the door?

Miao didn't know what to think of, and hurriedly withdrew her hand from the door.

She always felt that there seemed to be a terrible thing hidden behind this door. Although she didn't know what it was, her intuition told her that it was best not to try to open this door.

...But there is only this door in the stone room. If this door cannot be opened, how can she leave here?

When Miao was troubled, the jade platform located in the center of the stone room suddenly shook violently, and began to sink continuously until it was level with the ground, and then stopped still.

Miao leaned on the wall to stand firm, and took a closer look, only to find that the original location of the jade platform had opened a hole at some point, and it turned out to be a secret road leading to nowhere.

Miao glanced at the secret passage, and then groped carefully for the stone gate behind her, and finally came to the entrance of the secret passage. Looking at the stone steps extending to nowhere, Miao frowned slightly.

The timing of the appearance of this secret passage was too coincidental, and she had to think about it, but if she didn't want to go through the main entrance, then this was the only way left for her to choose.

Miao sighed, and suddenly felt that if everything was designed by someone, no matter how reluctant she was, she would have to step on this secret road in front of her.

Miao tightly clenched her hands in her sleeves, trying to suppress the irritability in her heart, so that all the flames in the stone room gathered around her. Before leaving, she grabbed a few Tongbao from her purse and threw them into the secret passage In the depths, he walked slowly along the stone steps of the secret path until he heard the sound of Tongbao rolling to the ground in the distance.

The secret path is narrow and narrow, and Miao has to walk forward with her body bent so as not to hit her head.

With one hand, she led the light of the fire to illuminate the way forward, and with the other hand, she held the skirt to prevent her from tripping over. At the same time, she also had to pay attention to the road under her feet. In this way, it was quite difficult to move forward.

Especially the poor air circulation in the secret passage, and the dust falling on some stone walls, all of which made her tormented terribly.

Fortunately, the secret passage is not very long. Just when Miao felt that her breathing was becoming more and more difficult, the front of the secret passage suddenly opened up, revealing a fragment of light, accompanied by a little spark, piercing the thick darkness around.

Miao stopped suddenly, stood at the exit of the secret passage and stopped moving forward.

There is a winding path under her feet, paved with jade, glowing with a faint blue light.The path is very narrow, only for two people to pass side by side. Looking around, the other end of the path disappears into the void in the distance, and it is not known where it leads.

And around this long and narrow stone road, there is nothing but stone lamps beside the road.

There were no walls, no beams, not even a place to stand, just an endless void, with no end in sight in all directions.

For outsiders, this is a very magical space, the boundless darkness, and the dots of stars in the darkness, making people feel like they are in the night sky, shining brightly, but they can't tell the direction to turn back.

But for Miao, the void in front of him undoubtedly represents a potential danger.

Everyone in the world knows that the Yinyang family is mysterious and unpredictable, and the Yinyang Palace where the sect resides is full of murderous intentions. Few people can go to spy on it. Even if they sneak in smoothly, they will never return.

Outsiders don't know the reason, but Miao knows a lot.

People from the Yin-Yang family have always been good at using illusions, especially like to add illusions to Yin-Yang arts.The same is true of the structure of the Yin-Yang Palace. On top of the basic architectural pattern, layers of barriers have been set up by the Yin-Yang family with illusions, combined with ancient mechanism techniques, making the originally unpredictable path even more complicated.

Illusion, no matter how real it is, is nothing more than a blinding method, but the Yin Yang family's blinding method can transform reality into reality, and kill people with magic spells with a raised hand.

This is also one of the main reasons why the Yin-Yang family made many people in the rivers and lakes fearful in the pre-Qin period.

As for the place in front of me, the techniques used are similar to the illusion layout in the Yin-Yang Palace, but compared to the Yin-Yang Palace where the stars are shining and one can get lost in it at a glance, the layout here is obviously not clever enough.

Miao withdrew her gaze towards the void in the distance, and walked slowly along the long and narrow path.

She looked at the changes in the surrounding stars while counting her steps.At this time, the surroundings were quiet, except for her footsteps on the jade road, there was only the sound of water droplets coming from nowhere, tick tock, as if beating on a person's heart.

There is still a long way to go, but Miao did not continue walking.

She stopped under a shimmering void, and her eyes, which were originally without a trace of waves, gradually produced a strange light with the changes of the surrounding stars, as if she was looking at something through the void in front of her.

The surrounding environment did not change, but the number of stars reflected in her eyes became less and less, until the pupils completely turned into pitch black with no focal length, she suddenly moved.

Miao ignored the abyss below her feet, and left the ground without a trace of hesitation, standing firmly on a void, and walked towards the distance step by step.

When she reached a place where the airflow was obviously different from the others, she stopped again.

She stretched her right hand forward, a cluster of weak sparks ignited from her fingertips, and instantly turned into a prairie fire, quickly sweeping everything around.

The scorching fire made a hole in the void, and from a distance, it seemed as if someone had cut it from the outside.

Miao didn't let go of this tiny crack. With a move of her hands, a more blazing flame ignited from under her feet soaring into the sky, turning into a fiery snake in mid-air, and heading towards that crack with the momentum of swallowing mountains and rivers.

In an instant, the void shrouded in darkness was completely shattered, and the fiery snake broke through the edge of the illusion, hovering in the air with a scorching aura, which gradually dissipated after a while.

Miao covered her nose with her sleeve to block the turbid air around her, and then patted the dirt on her sleeve in disgust, feeling as if her whole body was soaked in dust.

When the illusion was not resolved, the surrounding area was beautiful and the space was very spacious, but after the illusion was resolved, the objects that had been transformed by the spell naturally returned to their original appearance, but it was not a delicate place, but a rather old place. stone prison.

The stone prison is not big, there is only a narrow aisle, and the cells are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the aisle.

The surrounding light was very dark, and there was a small permanent lamp hanging in front of the cell door, but there was no one in the cell, and the corners were covered with cobwebs. It seemed that no one had been there for a long time.

Miao turned her head and glanced at the direction she came from. There was a big hole behind her, which was the way out that she forcibly broke open just now.Looking in from the entrance of the cave, you can still see a ray of light and a few stars in the cave, but looking in again, there is only darkness left.

Miao was a little surprised. She thought that the place just now was just an ordinary illusion, but she didn't expect that after the illusion was undone, the original illusion not only did not return to its original state, but formed an independent space.

This is not just what simple illusions can do...

Just when Miaowu was in a trance, a very thin cold light pierced from the darkness, almost in an instant, the aura suddenly changed a few steps away.

Miao felt something in his heart, and raised his hand to prop up a water screen, blocking all the sword qi that came towards him.

Immediately, both hands formed seals, forming a light blue eight trigrams water figure in front of him, and two yin and yang fish leaped out with their strength, split the water, and turned into several sharp water blades towards the front. One of the moves in "Water and Wind Rises", the three waters are generous, can be defended and attacked, and the principle of impermanence is impermanent when the water is soft enough in one move.

Miao is in a dangerous place now, and she is taking every step of the way. When she is suddenly attacked, she naturally hits hard. Although she doesn't insist on killing with one blow, she must make sure that the opponent has no power to counterattack.

Hearing the sound of the collision between the water blade and the weapon, accompanied by a muffled groan that obviously belonged to a man, Miao raised her palm and struck forward without hesitation, but found that her feet suddenly became a little sluggish, and her movements were not as good as Before neat.

The moment Miao paused, the person on the opposite side had stabbed him with a sword. Unlike the oppressive feeling it brought to people before, the momentum of this sword was obviously much weaker.

Miao reacted in time, protected her whole body with inner strength and outward, and barely blocked the sharp sword. After touching the sharp and cold blade, she struck back with her palm and pulled away from the opposite person slightly. some distance.

The blow failed, and when Miao was considering whether to make up another palm, the person opposite suddenly stopped his movements, and the aura that was originally tit for tat also showed signs of weakening.

"...Is it Ah Miao?"

The moment the voice sounded, Miao's brain quickly judged the identity of the person coming from the other party's voice.

Surprised in her heart, the movements of her hands inevitably stopped, but because she was not sure, she didn't go forward, but stopped at the spot and called out tentatively.

"noob……?"

Hearing Miao's voice, the tense body of the person opposite was visibly loosened, and there was joy and disbelief in the voice.

"It's really you..."

Under Miao's gaze, a slender figure gradually emerged from the darkness, it was Liu Mubai in a Taoist robe of pure yang.

He is in good spirits, although there are a lot of blood and dust on the snow-white Taoist robe, his face is still rosy, except that he is a bit embarrassed, he looks like he has gone through a fierce battle.

Seeing him like this, Miao was also taken aback for a moment, remembering that she had done nothing wrong just now, she hurried forward to help him, and said annoyedly: "I'm sorry, I don't know if it's you...are you injured? ?”

Liu Mubai was still a little wary at first, but seeing Miao's behavior, he completely relaxed.He twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, and comforted: "It's none of your business, I was the one who made the first move. You were just out of self-defense, so why apologize to me, not to mention that I wasn't hurt, so it's okay."

Miao glanced at him, and said suspiciously: "You smell so bloody... Are you really not injured?"

Liu Mubai sneered slightly: "Don't worry, it's all other people's blood, you think I seem to be in trouble?" In order to prove that what he said is true, he stretched his muscles and bones, easily drew a sword flower, and engraved it with "Teng Kong" The two-character long sword was put into the sheath behind his back, and his actions were quite neat.

Miao felt relieved and asked, "Did you encounter enemies on the way here?"

Liu Mubai's Taoist robe has already been stained with a lot of blood. Although the blade is clean, there is still a lingering hostility attached to it. Besides, even if you don't look at other things, just look at his blood, you can know the progress along the way. Thrilling.

Liu Mubai showed a wry smile on his face, and said: "To tell you the truth, this time I was completely capsized in a gutter, and I was tricked by my own people... Well, I don't really blame him."

It turned out that Liu Mubai was originally ordered by his teacher to go to Chang'an to find his uncle Qi Jin, but he didn't expect that something happened on the way to delay his journey. When he arrived at the destination and inquired, he found out that Qi Jin had left Chang'an a day earlier.In desperation, Liu Mubai had no choice but to send a letter to his master Yu Rui in Chunyang to explain the situation, while he stayed in Chang'an and found a place to settle down temporarily.

During the days when Equal Rui replied, Liu Mubai was not idle either. He took off his conspicuous Taoist robe, put on light clothes, and went to the street, intending to find out if there was any important information. While walking, he ran into an acquaintance .

The acquaintance was Shu Jinzhong, who looked like someone from Tiance Mansion from his name, but the other party was not a soldier, but a disciple of the Beggar Clan who had similar interests with Liu Mubai - both of them liked to drink.

The reason for the establishment of Shu Jinzhong and Liu Mubai's friendship is quite simple, they were friends with wine and meat at the beginning - literally.These two met each other when they were chivalrous and righteous, and later found that each other was pleasing to the eye, and their tempers were compatible. In addition, both of them liked to drink but were banned by their respective masters/guild leaders. There is a feeling of sympathy for each other, because we have gradually become acquainted with each other.

Shu Jinzhong is not a bad person, although he likes to walk the birds, he will go crazy when he is drunk, but the bottom line is that he will never hit a woman.

Liu Mubai was quite happy to see him, and wanted to go up to say hello, but who knows that the old friend didn't see him at all, and just walked forward furtively, the seven-foot man who looked like a handsome man, unexpectedly looked a little bit wretched.

At that time, Liu Mubai felt that something was wrong with his friend, so he followed the other person's gaze and looked forward, only to find that there was a little lady with a rather iconic appearance in front of him.

Well!Not only did he treat his old friends as air, but now he even started to follow women!Must be caught and beaten!

Liu Mubai's mobility was extraordinary, thinking this way in his heart, the next second he threw a Five-Fang Xingji in his hand, and successfully put Shu Jinzhong, who was defenseless, on the spot.

Shu Jinzhong was following along well, but suddenly he felt his meridians stagnate, and he subconsciously pulled out the bamboo pole behind his waist. If the culprit didn't show up in time and found out that he was an acquaintance, he probably couldn't help but slap him out.

After Shu Jinzhong's explanation, Liu Mubai realized that the old friend was not following an ordinary little lady, but Guo Zhu, the daughter of Guo Yan, the leader of their beggar gang.

According to what Shu Jinzhong said, he was originally ordered to lurk in Chang'an as an internal response, but who knows that he saw Guo Zhu, the beloved daughter of his clan leader, on the street a few days ago.At that time, he wanted to go up to say hello, but unexpectedly, Guo Zhu disappeared in a blink of an eye, which made him think he had misread it.

So when he met Guo Zhu again, Shu Jinzhong felt that something was wrong, so he simply followed Guo Zhu secretly, wanting to see what he was doing.

Unexpectedly, Liu Mubai appeared halfway through the follow-up, and when Shu Jinzhong finished explaining, he turned around, and there was nowhere to be seen Guo Zhu.

Hearing this, Miao was a little puzzled and said, "Is this directly related to your arrest here?"

Liu Mubai said bitterly: "The accident happened to the daughter of Chief Guo!"

Miao said, "What's the matter with her?"

Liu Mubai's face darkened, and he said, "That woman is not Guo Zhu at all."

On the night that Shu Jinzhong lost Guo Zhu, news came from the eyeliner of the beggar gang in Chang'an City, saying that Guo Zhu had really come to Chang'an City, and now he was caught by a group of women in red.When Shu Jinzhong received the news, he was having a drink with Liu Mubai, he knew it, and Liu Mubai naturally knew it too.

Although he didn't know Guo Zhusu, but something happened to the daughter of the leader of the beggar gang, and Shu Jinzhong was a good friend. Liu Mubai couldn't just sit idly by, so he and Shu Jinzhong followed the clues given by the disciples of the beggar gang. Arriving at a separate courtyard in Chang'an East City, they successfully found Guo Zhu who was being held there.

Originally, Liu Mubai and Shu Jinzhong teamed up, and the red-clothed disciples guarding the other courtyard were no match for them at all, but what they both never expected was that Guo Zhu, who was guarded by them, would turn against him, and suddenly made trouble, giving them both One palm per person.It was Liu Mubai who reacted quickly and protected himself and Shu Jinzhong in time with Yishi Zhenshanhe, which saved him from Guo Zhu's murderous hands.

Seeing that they failed to save people and fell into the enemy's trap, Liu Mubai and Shu Jinzhong were not fools. While fighting with Guo Zhu, they moved as far as possible to the door, so it was convenient to get out.

Unexpectedly, Guo Zhu was already very difficult to deal with, and then came a man in black with a mask covering his face. His martial arts were so high that Liu Mubai and Shu Jinzhong were difficult to deal with.

Needless to say, the two were captured by mistake. When Liu Mubai woke up, he found himself in a prison, but there was no sign of Shu Jinzhong.

Liu Mubai sighed: "I was reckless, and I don't know how the loyal brother is doing now."

After hearing the cause and effect, Miao was originally silent, but now she thought about it, and suddenly said: "Those women in red clothes who led you there were taught by red clothes?"

Liu Mubai said: "Ninety-nine are inseparable, I once heard those people in red call that fake Guo Zhu a saint... It's a pity I didn't realize it earlier, and this is how I got it!"

Although in the final analysis, Liu Mubai was caught in the trap because of a problem with the information of the Beggar Gang, but many speculations flashed through his mind, but he never suspected the Beggar Gang.

If nothing else, just because of Beggar Gang's style of conduct and martial arts status over the past few decades, it is impossible to collude with the Red Clothes Sect.

After all, as the largest martial arts gang, in Liu Mubai's opinion, the possibility of collusion between the beggar gang and the cult is probably lower than the possibility of the beggar gang leader and the leader of the Red Clothes Sect having an affair in private.

Poor Liu Mubai didn't know at this time that although the head of the beggar gang and the leader of the Red Clothes Sect didn't have an affair, the leader of the Beggars Sect and a certain saint of the Red Clothes Sect had more than one pair of legs—they even gave birth to two babies.

Liu Mubai glanced at Miao, only to realize that he was too busy complaining, but forgot a very important question, "A Miao, why are you here?"

Miao said: "It's a long story... If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely explain it to you in detail. Right now we still need to find a way to get out, and leave here earlier!"

Liu Mubai nodded in agreement, but frowned and said, "I only found one road when I came here, and the road ahead is a dead end. I don't know what's going on with you?"

Miao turned her head and glanced at the broken hole behind her, shook her head and said, "It's also a dead end."

Liu Mubai pondered for a moment, and said: "The air here is flowing, there must be an exit nearby that we don't know about, and we will split up later to find out if there is a mechanism that can be controlled."

After he finished speaking, he took a special look at Miao, opened his mouth, and was about to continue to say something, but before he could make a sound, his expression suddenly changed, and he fell to his knees on the ground, with his ears on the ground, His expression gradually became serious.

Seeing his expression, Miao was a little puzzled, and was about to ask aloud, but was stopped by Liu Mubai's gesture.

Liu Mubai didn't explain anything, just tugged Miao's sleeves, pulled her into the shadow beside him, and then he explained softly by taking advantage of the darkness in the corner of the wall.

But someone came not far away.

Liu Mubai's judgment was not wrong, just after he pulled Miao to hide for a while, there was an obvious sound of footsteps coming from a distance, judging from the frequency of the steps, the other party should be two people.

Liu Mubai listened intently, and found that the footsteps of the people who came were steady and powerful. Although one of them was a little frivolous, his breath was restrained. Except for the footsteps that were not intentionally covered up, there was no trace of extra breath.

Miao and Liu Mubai hid in the darkness. Affected by the quiet surroundings, they unconsciously held their breath.

When the footsteps got closer and closer, Miao also sensed that the coming person was difficult to deal with, so she didn't dare to be careless, so she used illusion to hide the breath of the two people again.

After a while, the person who came came near, but before the person arrived, the sound came first.

However, Ling Miao was a little surprised that the other party was not the member of the Red Clothes Sect as she had guessed, but two men, two rather old men.

The voice of one of them sounded full of vigor, but it was unavoidable to reveal a trace of old age.

The other person seemed younger, and his voice was a bit sharp. In Miao's ears, it made her feel uncomfortable for some reason, but she felt that this voice was familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere.

While Miao was in ecstasy, the person who came was getting closer and closer, and the voice of the person speaking could already be heard clearly by the two people hiding in the shadow.

"Assassin is really unreliable, and the people under him are all useless. He can't even look down on a boy who has lost the strength to struggle! If you dare to ruin a big event, don't blame the old man for taking him first!" The two holy maiden sacrificial banners!"

"Brother Shu calm down..."

The person who spoke seemed to have an elegant smile, but because of his sharp voice, it sounded like a sarcasm, "Although Assassin has some skills, it doesn't mean that everyone under him is an elite. Brother Shu must be very clear about his own affairs and his inexhaustible ability, if he wants to escape, how can those people from the Hongyi Sect be able to restrain him!"

"Right now, our cooperation with the Wolf Sect will use the Red Clothes Sect. As for Wujue, we can just order our subordinates to search more. He has wounds on his body, and he was sealed by the old man's curse. Don't hurt the peace among allies because of this."

A slightly old voice sneered, with a gloomy tone in his voice, "It's also because the old man was thinking about it, and he should never let people from the Red Clothes Scholar get in touch with him. Hate to the bone... Forget it, all karma is fate. When the first emperor's coffin is opened and the old man gets the secret treasure, I must make the Red Clothes Sect disappear from this world from now on, so as to comfort my daughter's spirit in heaven!"

When they said this, they happened to pass a corner, and the tall and short figures were all exposed to the sight of people in the dark.

The two people who were hiding could see clearly, but at this glance, they both looked a little bit bad. Miao's face was okay, but he was a little thoughtful. On the other hand, Liu Mubai already had to pinch his palm tightly to be able to Resisted not to exclaim out loud.

It was because although he didn't know one of them, the attire of that person was not unfamiliar.

Black clothes and white skirts, a mask on his face, and a puppet behind him—it is the standard attire of the leader of the Yinyuan Society!

In the battle of Daming Palace a few months ago, Liu Mubai was worried about his uncle Liu Mengyang, so he asked for orders to stay in Chunyang, and did not participate in it. Although he heard his uncle Shangguan Boyu mention the battle situation at that time, he did not understand it comprehensively after all.

But no matter how incomplete, he still knows one thing, the leader of the Yinyuan Society, Wuming, should have died in Daming Palace long ago--if you don’t see Tianzi Zero, it’s all over the rivers and lakes, how could it appear here!

Even if he killed Liu Mubai, he would never have imagined that the Wuming who appeared in front of him at this moment was not fake, but a real person, but it was not the Wuming who died in Daming Palace.

This person's name is Wang Maozhong, and he was the previous owner of Yinyuanhui. In private, his identity is You Tianjun, one of the nine heavens, but in the open, his identity is a death row prisoner who has passed away for many years.

In his early years, Wang Maozhong served as a general in Xuanzong's court, but because he was too arrogant and conceited, he was soon detested by Xuanzong, and finally he was ordered to die in Yongzhou by an imperial edict.

It's a pity that the historical records may not be true, even the emperor who ordered the death of Wang Maozhong himself could not have imagined that everything that happened was pre-designed by Wang Maozhong.

He pretended to die, but privately ordered Xue Beichen, who had been trained for many years, to succeed him as the new You Tianjun. He wanted to better realize his ambition by controlling his apprentice Xue Beichen.

And the nameless person who died in Daming Palace was none other than Wang Maozhong's disciple Xue Beichen.

Although Xue Beichen is Wang Maozhong's only disciple, Wang Maozhong's virtues are not convincing to him. In addition, since he took over from Wang Maozhong, after several years of management, he believes that he has completely controlled Yinyuanhui, so naturally he is no longer willing to be controlled by Wang Maozhong .But what he didn't expect was that his thoughts had already been seen through by the treacherous and cunning Wang Maozhong, and he used the convenience of "Nine Heavens" to set up a clever trap, which killed him in Daming Palace.

However, although Xue Beichen was defeated, the few dark chess pieces he played before his death really caused Wang Maozhong a headache.It is also because of Xue Beichen's arrangements before his death that Wang Maozhong has not recovered his identity as You Tianjun.

"Brother Shu, when I came, the wolf sect had already made arrangements, and it was only a matter of time before we found the first emperor's coffin. There is nothing left and right now, why don't we go and see that girl together?" Wang Maozhong's voice was still a little shrill, with But he took a bit of caution, as if he was afraid of something.

"She is a child's family, and she deserves Tianjun's concern... Could it be that Tianjun heard some gossip somewhere and has an idea in his heart?" The person with a slightly old voice is an old man wrapped in a black cloak , he was hunched over, with a few strands of white hair protruding from the hood, covering most of the side of his face, and under the light of the fire, he looked a little creepy.

"Brother Shu, why did you say that? You and I have been friends for decades. Since the child is your granddaughter, how can I not care about it? This place is no different than other places, but we all have to be careful every step of the way. She alone How can the little daughter's family endure it!" Wang Maozhong's expression did not change, and under the scrutiny of the old man in black, his face appeared open-minded, as if he really cared about the grandson of his old friend just now.

Seeing Wang Maozhong's demeanor, no matter what the man in black thought, at least his face was no longer tense, and his tone softened a lot, "Heaven has a heart, that child is placed in a safe place by my subordinates. When you need her, someone will take her there."

Seeing his old friend let go, Wang Maozhong knew that he didn't shy away from this matter, so he asked casually: "I heard that the kid is not weak, and he stays in the Valley of the Wicked all year round. He can't do anything wrong if he thinks about it. Can the person guarding her be sure to restrain her?"

There was a hint of a smile on the face of the man in black. Hearing Wang Maozhong's words, his face immediately sank, "I wish she had more methods, and she wouldn't be as stupid and ignorant as she is now! I thought she was so ignorant in the world! After many years, and standing in the Valley of the Evil, she can make some progress, but I never thought that the Mo family boy would raise her up!"

No matter how talented it is, it is unacceptable to be like a wild horse that is uncontrollable! If it is not because he is also my blood , such unstable factors, I must first get rid of them!"

The voices of Wang Maozhong and the old man in black got farther and farther away, but Miao stood there as if her acupuncture points had been tapped, unable to move.

She stared blankly at the ever-burning lamp in front of her eyes. The faint fire light danced in her sight. It was supposed to bring warmth, but at this moment, the blood in her whole body seemed to be frozen together, and she felt a chill all over her body. It is actually colder than the snow on the Kunlun Ice Field.

"Amiao, what's wrong with you?"

Liu Mubai was not much less shocked than Miao, but maybe it was because of an outsider, he quickly came back to his senses, and just wanted to say hello to Miao, but found that she was in a strange state at this time.

Wang Maozhong and the old man in black had completely disappeared, but Ke Miao still stared at the direction in which the two of them left as if he had settled down, his almond eyes were full of complex expressions.

Half an hour, Miaocai
