Alienated Martial Arts

In the forest late at night, the wind was blowing and the snow was blowing.

From time to time, clumps of snow would fall from the trees and make a dull thud on the ground.

Beiwu slowly retracted his half-stretched left leg.

And he accurately stepped into the footprints left by the previous step.

Then, he slowly turned his head and looked into the darkness beside him.

Then he saw a pair of eyes that were like deep pools, focusing their gaze silently.

The two eyes met in the dark void and were separated at the first touch.

"This man is not a monk, but he is wearing the red robe of a tantric master."

"Could it be that the battle that took place in the town tonight was him fighting against the grandmaster from the Northern Wilderness?"

"He looks so young, but he has actually reached the realm of heaven and man!?"

“Although I can’t believe it no matter what, the pressure caused by his glance just now made me really feel the severe danger.

It was as if the person standing in front of him was a monster, and the next moment he would tear into pieces the human skin covering himself, revealing his terrifying fangs and claws. "

"It really is true to the old saying, people die for money, birds die for food, and greed is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant."

"If I didn't care about those things outside my body and just turned around and left like everyone else, how could I end up in such a dilemma?"

Beibei's thoughts are spinning, his heart is thundering, but his face is like a flat lake.

He even smiled naturally and said, "On such a cold and snowy night, we can meet in the woods outside the town. It seems that the young master and I are quite destined."

Wei Tao slowly walked out from behind the tree, "It is indeed fate. I looked around for the old gentleman. I was ready to give up and leave, but then I met him again at the place where he came. Apart from fate, it is really not easy to explain. There’s a reason.”

Speaking of this, he suddenly raised his eyebrows, "When I was fighting against Grandmaster Beihuang, there was a breath approaching quickly, and then it disappeared immediately. It must have been that the old gentleman wanted to take action, but he ran away when he saw that the situation was not good. Back away.”

Bei Wu sighed, "I am originally from Southern Xinjiang and have nothing to do with the Northern Wilderness of the Great Zhou Dynasty, so I don't want to get involved in the dispute between the two parties.

In addition, now that he is older, he has lost the courage and courage he had when he was young. Living in seclusion here is just a way to live out the rest of his life. "

Wei Tao was silent for a moment, "The old gentleman doesn't want to be involved in the Great Zhou Beihuang Controversy, but I can understand.

However, the world is huge, there are so many blessed places, and there are so many good places to choose from, but you have to live in seclusion in a small town in the bitter cold Northland. The reason behind this has to be thought-provoking. "

Bei Wu's expression did not change, he just sighed lowly, "I have no choice but to live here."

His eyes flashed with light, as if he was lost in memories.

"Back then, I offended a certain big shot in southern Xinjiang, so I fled all the way, almost through the entire north and south territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It was not until I reached the northern border of Qizhou that I felt calm and no longer panicked all day long.

So I changed my appearance, kept my name anonymous, and stopped here. I stayed here for several years, even longer than many young people who came here to make a living. "

Wei Tao listened silently and said calmly, "The old gentleman gave a very good reason and almost convinced me."

"It's just that Beixu Town is located on the side of Baiming Mountain. It is the only north-south thoroughfare within a radius of two to three hundred miles. There are many private caravans coming and going on weekdays, and there are many informants from all parties. If you want to hide, it is definitely not a good choice. ."

"I also know that Young Master doesn't believe it, but it is the truth."

Bei Wu smiled bitterly and said, "Young Master was able to kill the three masters of Beihuang with one against three. Even if I had more courage, I would not dare to talk nonsense in front of Young Master, let alone use some lies to deceive. Young Master."

"You're already lying to me."

Wei Tao's face was expressionless, and his tone became colder, "Furthermore, you have been secretly checking my status since I showed up. The reason why you haven't turned your back on me until now is just because you are a little unsure about how much I have left." If you are successful, can it pose a threat to you?

In addition, it is also a strange thing that makes people feel puzzled that the three masters of Beihuang have been here for a long time and can turn a blind eye to the old gentleman. "

Bei Wu was silent for a long time, then slowly exhaled a breath, "Everyone has their own secret..."

Halfway through his words, he glanced at Wei Tao, who was about to take a step forward, and changed the subject without warning, "So, my secret is actually related to the tribe in southern Xinjiang where I came from.

The reason why I have been staying in Beixu Town is because there may be a treasure lost by the Wolf Lord a hundred years ago in the nearby Baiming Mountain. "

Wei Tao slowly retracted his steps, "The old gentleman is getting more and more outrageous. The entire Great Zhou territory is separated from Southern Border and Northern Wilderness. They are at least thousands of miles apart. I really can't think of any reason." , can make the leader of your department come here.

Also, if you say you are from southern Xinjiang, and I believe you are from southern Xinjiang, then you are really a fool. "

Beiwu sighed secretly, and carefully took out a palm-sized, silver-colored wolf-headed animal token from his personal clothing.

The next moment, he concentrated his energy and secretly used his true strength.

The wolf-headed beast card quietly lit up with a faint glow, illuminating a small space around it.

Wei Tao was slightly startled, and the figures of Wang Yingxue and his brother Wang Yingxue of the Silver Wolf Gang quietly appeared in his mind.

This wolf head cannot be said to be exactly the same as the tattoo mark of the Silver Wolf Gang, but it is still 67% similar.

It immediately brought back his long-lost memories, making people sigh inexplicably.

After a moment, Bei Wu restrained his breath, and the silver light disappeared immediately.

After hesitating, he gently threw out the beast tag.

"As long as you take this nameplate and ask any official of the Annan Division of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you will know that the old man is indeed a member of the Moon Wolf Clan in the mountains of southern Xinjiang."

Wei Tao did not reach out to pick it up, but let it fall on the snow.

He lowered his head and stared at the silver beast card, an undetectable light flashing in his eyes.

This thing is still in mid-air, and the status bar has already reacted.

At this time, it fell to the feet, and the fluctuations were even more obvious.

Bei Wu took one look at Wei Tao's calm expression, and felt inexplicably relieved.

"As for the doubts that the young master mentioned just now, this matter can be traced back to the period of Emperor Wu of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The contemporary wolf master of Lao Ruan's tribe was sent north by Emperor Wu a hundred years ago and participated in two battles against the Golden Tent in the Northern Wilderness and the Holy Land of Esoteric Cult. .

The wolf master of this tribe was seriously injured at the end of the battle. On the way back, he knew that he didn't have much time left, so he sneaked into the depths of the Baiming Mountains, hid the secret treasures passed down by the tribe from generation to generation, and then entrusted the veteran of the Black Feather tribe who came with him to bring back the news. Southern Xinjiang.

Unfortunately, in the following years, the tribe sent many experts to Baiming Mountain, but they were unable to find the treasure, so they gradually stopped thinking about it.

If the old man had not caused trouble in Southern Xinjiang, he might not have traveled thousands of miles to find this place, hoping to find the inherited treasure and then return to Southern Xinjiang for revenge. "

Speaking of this, Beiwu seemed to have made up his mind, "I know that I am no match for the Young Master, and I never want to be an enemy of the Young Master, so I am willing to offer some of the treasures I have collected over the years as money to buy my life.

I just hope that the young master can raise his noble hand and let me leave right now, away from this land of right and wrong, and never come back again in this life. "

"What did the old gentleman say?"

Wei Tao smiled and said slowly, "I'm just a little curious, so I'm just asking a few more questions. If the old gentleman wants to leave, he can leave directly now. This junior will never do anything to stop him."

Beiwu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but slowly shook his head, "I haven't handed over the things I have collected in recent years to the young master for safekeeping. Even if I leave, I will feel uneasy."

Half an hour later.

Wei Tao stood in a secret room, with a dazzling array of items spread out in front of him.

In addition to the silver beast tag, there are two more strange-looking objects in his hand.

As for the other items, he barely even glanced at them before waving his hand for Beiwu to pack them away.

"This man is a very particular person and is not tempted by money or treasures at all.

It turned out that they only took two symbolic things at random, and they were the least valuable decorative collections here. "

"If it were someone else who was greedy... No, it doesn't have to be a greedy person. Even an ordinary warrior wouldn't be able to just take one or two items and stop immediately.

This made me a little uneasy, and I wished I could give him a few more things to put him at ease. "

Bei Wu thought silently in his heart, and even felt a lot of worry and anxiety inexplicably.

"Wait a moment."

Suddenly, a voice came into his ears, which immediately made Beiwuji Lingling shiver.

Even his body suddenly became tense at this moment.

Wei Tao didn't seem to notice his change. He just reached out and took out two more necklaces that looked like they were ordinary at first glance, and put them together with the silver beast tags and other items.

"Okay, senior, please put away all the other things." He put a few things away close to his body, then straightened up, without looking down again.

Beiwu was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "This necklace has the effect of calming the mind and concentration, and with its elegant shape and exquisite craftsmanship, it is definitely the best choice to give as a gift.

There are other accessories suitable for young women to wear here. Sir, would you like to choose a few more? "

"No, these two are enough."

Wei Tao recalled it and confirmed once again that Zheng Suyun was really not willing to wear various accessories, so only Wei Xun and Ni Hao were left. They just had a necklace to express their feelings, which could be regarded as a gift for them during this trip.

Bei Wu said no more. He quickly packed up everything and asked again, "Master, if there is nothing else to do, I will leave."

Wei Tao gathered his thoughts and looked quietly at the white-haired old man in front of him.

The thought of the Moon Wolf Clan's secret treasure flashed through his mind. He was silent for a moment, then waved his hand and said with some interest, "Let's go. It's best not to come back, old gentleman."

Beiwu nodded, but still stood there without moving.

"What else does the old gentleman have to do?"

Wei Tao rubbed the silver beast badge, and the status bar phantom appeared in front of his eyes.

Bei Wu considered it carefully and said slowly, "There is indeed one thing. Although it has nothing to do with the young master, it has something to do with the Great Zhou Sect.

The old man saw that the young master was a warrior of the Great Zhou Dynasty and was an enemy of the Beihuang Grandmaster. After much deliberation, he thought it would be best to inform him about this matter. "

"As for whether this information is true or false, and whether it has value, I don't know yet. It all depends on the young master's own thoughts."

The status bar disappeared quietly. Wei Tao raised his head and looked directly into those tired eyes, "Senior will tell you exactly what it is."

Beiwu fell into memories, "Not long ago, when Mr. Qu entered the town, he had a meal with me and expressed his desire for me to join them in going south.

The old man vaguely expressed that he just wanted to stay quietly and did not want to get involved in the dispute. He seemed a little unhappy at the time. Perhaps it was because I had taken care of several basic businesses in the Northern Wilderness and knew the noble people in the Northern Wilderness behind them. , and didn’t say much after all.

It was during that recruitment that he mentioned that Qinglin Shan Yuanyi was about to be destroyed, in order to show the old man the powerful strength that Beihuang had developed over the past decades.

He also said that a certain former high-ranking member of the sect is now in the Golden Account and is highly trusted by the new king. If the old age passes, he can also be enshrined by the tribe and see the divine spirit of Brahma, which will make his current life easier no matter what. "

Wei Tao frowned slightly, "Then did he say what method he would use to deal with Qinglin Mountain?

Also, which sect was the former high-ranking sect member from, and what was his identity? "

Bei Wu shook his head, "He only mentioned it briefly and did not disclose any more information, so what I know is extremely limited. Quan Zuo just gave the young master a warning."

"I understand, thank you senior for informing me."

Beiwu left quietly and quickly disappeared into the depths of the dark wind and snow.

Only Wei Tao himself was left, still staying in the stone house.

Silently, the status bar appeared again.

Without any hesitation, he absorbed all three items including the Moon Wolf Beast Card.

After a pleasant crisp sound.

The number of gold coins in the status bar once again exceeded double digits, reaching twelve.

Next, he stopped staying and left Beixu Town while the sky was still dark. He found a hidden place dozens of miles away and started a new round of improvement in his skills.

The first is the art of gazing.

After this snowy night tracking and subsequent fight with Mr. Qu, Wei Tao suddenly discovered the effect of this auxiliary tonic technique.

When used under certain circumstances, the role it can play cannot be underestimated.

More importantly, he has just experienced the mysterious concept of the secret method of Mengzhi Vajra. If it is true as Shang Lao said, then he has practiced the art of observing the spirit and observing the energy to a deep level, and he will also have a profound understanding of the mysterious concept. Small benefits.

"If it really succeeds, it means that as a Yuan Daozi, my main skill lies in the Xuanwu True Solution, and then I went around in a circle and became the Henglian Grandmaster through the Diamond Secret Technique of the Beihuang Secret Sect.

Thinking about all these things makes me feel uneasy, and I feel inexplicably that when practicing Kung Fu in a complex way, it seems that there are also benefits to being complex. "

Wei Tao sighed secretly and gathered his thoughts.

A gold coin quietly disappeared.

A mysterious aura begins to infuse the body.

It turns into strands of cool breath, starting from the eyebrows and the heart, lingering in the mind little by little.

He held his breath, endured all the sudden pain, and waited for the change to end.

Time passed little by little.

The gold coins disappeared one by one.

Finally, as the sky grew brighter, everything gradually calmed down.

Wei Tao slowly opened his eyes, his eyes became even deeper, as if he couldn't see to the end.

In the status bar, the interface regarding the Qi Watching Technique is completely different.

Name: Guan Shen Wang Qi Technique.

Progress: one hundred and ten.

Status: Breaking the limit for a while.

Description: Mutually confirmed with the Void Spirit Seal, this skill has undergone changes and improvements.

Of the twelve gold coins he had just acquired, only three were left.

Wei Tao calmed down and took a Xuanwu Pill to replenish his body.

After resting for a while, my eyes fell on the interface where turtles and snakes intertwined.

Name: Turtle and Snake crossing each other.

Progress: five hundred and eighty.

Status: Breaking the limit of 48 paragraphs.

Realm: Mysterious sense.

Description: With the addition of a new practice route, different veins are integrated with each other, and the Xuanwu artistic conception of Beigong is fed back, this technique has been greatly evolved and improved.

"Whether to consume one gold coin to improve the progress of the turtle and snake cross cultivation."

At this moment, Wei Tao was slightly in a trance.

After a long silence, he finally made up his mind and clicked on the yes option.

A gold coin disappeared, raising the Turtle and Snake chapter to the limit-breaking forty-ninth chapter.

Wei Tao closed his eyes, first performed the Void Spirit Seal, then turned to the Qi Watching Technique, and looked inside to observe himself.

The blood network in the body has added several more branches, making it even more complicated.

At the same time, he vaguely felt a barrier that seemed to exist but could not really be touched, lying in front of him, waiting for him to penetrate it so that he could see the blocked scenery behind.

"Whether to consume gold coins in the status bar to improve the progress of turtle and snake cross cultivation."

The golden writing appeared in front of me again.

Wei Tao held his breath and concentrated, shutting out all emotions, and pressed the upgrade option.

Uh-huh!

The golden virtual image in front of him suddenly blurred.

The next moment, something surprised Wei Tao.

The remaining two gold coins in the status bar returned to zero.

Before he could observe and think carefully, a huge amount of mysterious aura suddenly poured into his body.

It submerged into the qi and blood veins and nodes and acupuncture points, and disappeared without stopping for a long time.

Gulu!

An inexplicable sound suddenly sounded, coming from inside the chest and abdomen.

Wei Tao's expression suddenly changed, he immediately grabbed a Xuanwu Pill and stuffed it into his mouth without hesitation.

The next moment, drastic changes broke out simultaneously with unbearable hunger.

The blood network seemed to be going crazy, rapidly expanding outwards with new branches and vines, creating new orifice nodes due to their intertwining.

On the other hand, all the acupoint nodes are constantly expanding and contracting, like mouths waiting for food, eager for the nourishment of "nutritional energy".

"This feeling……"

Wei Tao narrowed his eyes suddenly and swallowed all the Xuanwu Pills.

After a while, he stretched out his trembling arms and stuffed all the Qingyuan Pills he received from Shanmen into his mouth.

In this way, with the addition of the mysterious aura, the hunger that almost burned people to ashes could be stabilized.

Dramatic changes are ongoing.

Groups of blood mist burst out from the surface of the body, making the red robe even more bloody and terrifying.

As time goes by slowly, everything will eventually be healed slowly.

After an unknown amount of time, Wei Tao slowly exhaled a breath and opened his tired eyes.

He seemed to have not come back to his senses yet, staring blankly at the snow not far away, as if he had turned into a sculpture.

In the status bar, Xuanwu Zhenjie Turtle and Snake has reached a new level.

Name: Turtle and Snake crossing each other.

Progress: 600 percent.

Status: Breaking the fifty-dan limit.

Description: Turtle and Snake intersect Yuanshou, Beigong Xuanwu means life.

After a dozen breaths passed, Wei Tao's eyes finally began to slowly focus, but his eyes were full of great doubts.

He frowned tightly, recalling that after reaching the fiftieth step beyond the limit, along with the expansion and contraction of the old and new acupoint nodes, mystical delusions suddenly came without any warning.

What surprised him even more was that the scene that first appeared in front of him was not an endless sea of ​​flowers or an altar of bones.

It was the vast mountains and forests on rainy nights that he was very familiar with.

A slender, yet twisted figure slowly walked toward him.

She stopped not far away, watching him quietly, watching him suddenly fall into madness, even hurt himself, and then throw something away like trash, then turned around and left quietly.

Wei Tao retraced his metaphysical delusions over and over again, experiencing the crazy distortions that were out of his control at that time but were constantly emerging from the deepest part of his consciousness.

There was also a pain that was almost ready to explode, coming from both the mind and the body at the same time.

After the Turtle and Snake chapter broke through the barrier limit, the points of the blood network all rose and fell, making this scene appear for a short moment.

Then it changed back to the Flower Sea Altar, and all kinds of noisy sounds kept echoing in my ears.

"Who is this woman?"

"What's that name? Why can't I remember it all of a sudden?"

"I remember her name is three characters. What is it?"

He was confused and thinking hard.

But no matter what, I can't remember the name that should be very familiar, or even engraved in my heart.

Inhale deeply again and again, and exhale slowly.

While Wei Tao calmed down his mind and restored the clarity of his spiritual platform, he deeply understood the expansion and contraction of the blood network orifice nodes in his body.

At this moment, a spiritual light suddenly appeared, dispelling the fog and illuminating the darkness.

"I remembered, she is Sun Xiyue, Sun Xiyue from the Cangmang Mountains!"

"No, no, in the delusion about the vast mountains that just appeared, the woman in white is definitely not the Sun Xiyue in my memory."

"So who is she?"

"It's still wrong. In my memory, the one I beat to death on a rainy night in the Cangmang Mountains should be Sun Xiyue."

“However, to this day, after countless delusions that have disrupted my mind, and even to the point of confusing the truth with the truth.

Going back and thinking about what happened in the past, must my memory of the late autumn rainy night in the Cangmang Mountains be true? "

Wei Tao slowly looked up at the dim sky.

The falling snowflakes fell on his body, quickly covering up the scarlet blood, leaving only a pure and flawless white.

…………

………………

At the foot of Xuanwu Mountain, in front of the gate of the courtyard.

Scattered snowflakes were falling in the sky, mixed with the frost and fog that filled the mountains, and there was a vast expanse of white everywhere.

Pang Que put his hands behind his back and walked out slowly from the gate of the other courtyard.

Behind him were the head of the courtyard and several outer deacons.

The head of the hospital was all smiles and his tone was flattering, "Pang Daozi has worked hard. This time he came to talk about his practice experience. The content is simple and easy to understand, and it points directly to the great road. It is really a great blessing for those little guys.

Even I have benefited a lot from listening to it. I need some time to calm down and digest what I have learned. "

Pang Que's expression was calm and his tone was gentle, "You're welcome, Chief Xu. The newly selected disciples are full of vitality and are our future. It will be our blessing to be able to get them into the state earlier."

What's more, compared with the head of the hospital and several deacons, I came to give a few lectures and guide them in practice, which was not considered hard work at all. They are the real hard workers, and I admire them. "

After hearing this, the smile on Dean Xu's face became even brighter, and even the wrinkles were completely relaxed, "I am so virtuous and capable. I am really ashamed to be praised by Daozi for his hard work and merit."

The few people chatted and soon came to the stone steps of the mountain road outside the gate of the courtyard.

Pang Que stopped at this moment and said, "Master, please stay. As for those good seedlings who are practicing the true solution, I will inform the Master of the Dharma Transmission Hall in detail about them when I get back, and I will make a special practice plan for these people as soon as possible." ."

After a pause, he continued, "If there are any problems that are difficult to solve at the head of the hospital, you can directly send someone to the inner gate to find me. As long as I can handle it, there will be no refusal."

"Then I'll trouble Pang Daozi."

Dean Xu gave a slight salute, "Taozi understands the righteousness deeply and cares about the mountain gate. This is the blessing of our sect."

Pang Que returned the greeting and turned to leave.

Soon we were deep in the white mist in the mountains.

Dean Xu raised his head, his expression full of surprise and emotion, and said to himself, "Pang Daozi seemed to be a changed person when he came back from the Taixuan Mountain Sect Competition this time.

He no longer had the arrogance and arrogance that he had before, but instead was extremely humble and magnanimous. He was indeed worthy of the title of the No. 1 disciple of Xuanwu after Yan Xu. "

The few outside deacons beside him were convinced, and they started talking about it for a while. They wondered what happened in the competition to cause such a huge change in Pang Daozi.

At this moment, a young woman holding a paper umbrella and wearing a large cloak came slowly.

She passed by the gate of Xuanwu Villa, climbed the steps along the mountain road, and slowly disappeared in front of several people.

The strange thing is that neither the deacons of the outer sect nor the head of the Xu Academy seem to have seen this slender and graceful figure.

It was as if no one had passed by them just now. The mountain road outside the courtyard was empty from beginning to end, and there was nothing else except the lingering mist.

Pang Que walked slowly on the stone steps in the mountain with his eyes half open and half closed.

After turning a corner, the building at the inner gate of Xuanwu Road is right ahead.

Hidden in the mist, it looks like a fairyland.

Pang Que stopped at this moment.

He frowned slightly, with some doubts flashing in his eyes.

Then he turned around little by little and looked at the way he came.

There was no one on the stone steps below, not even a bird was seen.

However, he just vaguely heard soft footsteps coming from behind.

It was as if someone was following him, keeping a precise distance between him and her, heading towards the inner gate of Xuanwu together.

Pang Que took a deep breath of cool air and then exhaled slowly.

Then hold your breath and concentrate, and feel it carefully.

The soft footsteps started again.

The distance is getting closer and closer, and it is becoming more and more clearly audible.

However, in his eyes, the stone steps below were still empty, and he couldn't see anyone approaching at all.

Quietly, the footsteps stopped suddenly.

According to his inference and calculation, it should have stopped ten steps away.

"If Junior Brother Wei were in my position, how would he handle this weird situation?"

"Whatever he does, I will follow his example and imitate him."

An inexplicable thought flashed through Pang Que's mind.

The next moment, he suddenly took action without any warning.

The qi and blood in the body are surging, and the real energy is surging throughout the body.

In an instant, the muscles and bones exploded, and large tendons bulged and twisted, floating on the surface of the body.

He crossed the ten steps with one big step and punched him down with a condescending punch.

Boom!

The fist surged through the white mist and suddenly exploded in the void.

But the punch was empty, and it didn't touch anything real.

"The Lord of the South Dipper lives, the Lord of the North Dipper dies!"

"The second of Xuanwu's seven constellations is Ox constellation!"

Pang Que thought in his heart, raised his spirit and will again, and suddenly stepped on the ground.

The palms and legs seem to be connected by invisible threads, and the energy and energy are seamlessly connected.

Jin, Ta, Beng and Da merged into one, converging the true energy into one point, and shot towards his side without hesitation.

boom!

The strong wind howls and the white mist stirs.

Pang Que's punch punched into the side stone wall without even making a sound.

Wow!

He pulled out his arm and placed it close to the mountain in a guarding posture.

Then he looked around cautiously, his eyes falling on the mountain road not far away, and his eyes suddenly became solemn.

There, on the stone steps covered with light white frost, two small footprints appeared.

It gave the impression that she was a slender and graceful woman who was standing here just now and just avoided his Niu Su blow.

"You are now the number one disciple of Xuanwu."

"I may have met you before, but I can't remember it because of some memory loss."

Suddenly, a sound like clear spring water sounded faintly, surrounding Pang Que's ears.

The next moment, a plain white paper umbrella appeared from scratch and appeared quietly in the mist.

Immediately afterwards, it seemed as if there was an invisible paintbrush moving in the void, outlining a graceful and graceful body.

Her face was obscured by a paper umbrella, making it impossible to see her true face.

Only a voice with some emotion and sigh slowly sounded from it, "Seeing you now is like seeing my past. I have walked alone on this mountain road countless times, silently admiring the scenery that I never tire of. ."

At this point, the paper umbrella slowly turned upwards.

She looked up at the towering white jade stone door in the distance, as if recalling the past.

"It's a pity that the past cannot be recalled, and many years have passed without realizing it. Now I return to my hometown of Shanmen to visit again. Looking at these once extremely familiar scenery, I feel a lot of strangeness inexplicably."

Pang Que took a deep breath, placed his right hand behind his back, and put his right hand across his chest. His fists were clenched emptyly, his thumbs protruded, and his body was slightly lowered, assuming a posture that seemed a bit weird. .

Although the woman whose face was covered by the paper umbrella was just talking to herself and sighing in a low voice, he felt tremendous pressure.

As if facing an unmatched opponent, the pure and transparent state of mind since Taixuan Mountain has set off a huge wave.

She was still talking slowly, her light and distant voice flowing slowly in the mist, and she seemed not to notice that Pang Que was on high alert as if he was facing a powerful enemy.

Maybe you have noticed it, but don't care about it.

"Since we met Pang Daozi on the left side of the stone steps in the mountains, we are destined to be together, so I will give you a gift. I hope Pang Daozi likes it."

The paper umbrella rotated again, and then lifted up little by little, revealing a plain and elegant face underneath.

Pang Que's pupils suddenly shrank to the size of a pinhead.

He stared intently at the woman a few steps away, instinctively feeling that she was familiar, and very familiar, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't remember who it was.

This kind of contradictory and conflicting thoughts makes people feel confused and trembling.

She spoke lightly, her voice like an orchid in an empty valley, blooming quietly in the empty and silent mountains.

Then he raised his slender jade-like fingers and pointed them towards Pang Que.

Pang Que had no time to react at all, and his eyes suddenly flashed without any warning.

In an instant, the dense white mist disappeared, the majestic and thick Xuanwu Mountain disappeared, and the woman holding a plain white paper umbrella in front of her, who seemed familiar but could not remember it, disappeared.

There was only a shadow of a divine beast that covered the sky and sun, occupying almost all of his sight.

"This is……"

"It can actually force away my mysterious thoughts, reflect into my spiritual consciousness, and show me such clear Xuanwu spiritual meaning!?"

"Who is she? Who is she?"

"Why can't I remember? It's impossible that I can't remember!"

Pang Que stared blankly at the Xuanwu statue, and was quickly attracted by it. He was completely immersed in it, and even forgot about the passage of time and the mysterious woman a few steps away.

I don’t know how long it will take.

Maybe just for a moment.

The Xuanwu virtual image disappeared silently.

Everything came back to Pang Que's eyes.

He suddenly came to his senses and saw her putting away her paper umbrella, letting the frost and snow fall on her body, and then slowly bowing towards the stone steps above.

"Disciple has met the Taoist Master."

Pang Que looked in the direction of her salute and found a figure with clear cheekbones approaching.

There were only ten steps separated from them, and he was looking down.

"Quer, you should go back first."

Qi Taiquan was silent for a long time, finally looking away from her, and said lightly to Pang Que.

"Yes, this disciple will obey the orders of the Taoist Master."

Pang Que bowed deeply and left quickly along the stone steps.

During this period, he wanted to look back several times, but he finally suppressed his chaotic thoughts and never stopped.

The snow gradually became heavier.

It fell to the ground with a flutter and soon completely covered the entire stone steps.

The two figures moved up and down, standing silently, facing each other speechless.

After a long time, a low sigh came out of Qi Taiquan's mouth, "Why are you coming back?"

"When this disciple returns to the mountain gate, he naturally wants to retrieve and complete some missing memories."

Qi Taiquan asked, "Have you been doing this during this time?"

"This disciple has been staying in southern Xinjiang before. Now that he has returned from there, he has begun to search for his past memories."

Qi Taiquan was silent for a long time, "After such a long time, I thought you were already dead, but I didn't expect that after a few years, you are not only still alive, but you have even reached such a high level."

She lowered her head and said calmly, "When we crossed the vast mountains, the disciple thought that he was going to die. At that time, there was no hope for life in his heart, and all he had was the twisted madness before death.

It's a pity that God's will is like a knife, unpredictable and difficult to follow, so when I was about to return to the light, I suddenly broke away from the twisted madness.

Then, in a pure state of mind about to be liberated, I figured out something that had been lingering in my heart, and just like that, I survived again by a strange combination of circumstances. "

Speaking of this, a smile appeared on her face, "Speaking of which, I would also like to thank the soldier who finally appeared in front of me and executed the interception order.

It was precisely because of his appearance that I was able to let go of certain things when I came back to my senses, thus pulling myself back from the abyss of death. "

Qi Taiquan was silent for a long time, "Could it be that what you used on that soldier was a method that Senior Brother Feng created after he almost went crazy in the last few years of his life?"

She shook her head slowly, "What the Taoist said is not entirely correct. The real founder is actually Gui Shufang. The teacher was afraid of death, so he walked a little further forward.

Of course, not only the teacher, but also the head of Dingxuan Sect Luo and the elders of Gongyuan Palace also researched the Concentric Knot based on Gui Shufang's construction, but the disciples did not know whether there were any hidden dangers in it. "

Qi Taiquan thought for a moment, "The Junzhen warriors are by no means Xuangan warriors who have practiced the Quanzhen Dharma, so I am a little curious. Could it be that at the last moment of his life, Senior Brother Feng had reached the point where he could use ordinary people as tools to perform magic arts?" Have you reached the level of the secret method?"

"Of course the teacher can't do it."

She showed a smile, "It's just that the disciple took another step along the path explored by the teacher with the help of hard-won clarity during the period of distortion and madness."

Speaking of this, she suddenly sighed, "In fact, when we were in the Cangmang Mountains, the disciples didn't look down on that ordinary soldier. Unfortunately, under the circumstances at that time, there was no other better choice.

It can only be used to make him a disciple's tool, to take over the malice related to the teacher on my behalf, and even because this person is too weak, it is not completely cut off, leaving a tail that is neither big nor small. "

Qi Taiquan suddenly asked, "What will be the fate of that soldier in the military town after you use the secret method?"

"The Taoist master is so high and mighty that he still cares about the life and death of a nobody?"

"I'm a little curious, so I asked casually. Whether you tell me or not is entirely up to you."

"Since it is the Taoist master who is asking this question, why shouldn't the disciple say something?"

She slowly raised her hand and picked up a piece of snowflake in front of her eyes, "It won't be anything like that at first, but as time goes by, a person will gradually turn into a madman, and eventually die slowly in endless pain and torture.

Calculating that more than a year has passed, if he is lucky enough to still be alive..."

At this point, she sighed quietly, "He is probably dead, because even the disciples can't imagine what kind of state he would be in if he were still alive."

Qi Taiquan nodded, "Not long ago, I met a young man, and I vaguely saw shadows similar to you and Senior Brother Hefeng in him. I thought he was the disciple you secretly taught.

I had an idea in my heart and gave him a practice commentary on the true interpretation of Xuanwu, ready to see what kind of path he could take.

Now listening to what you said, I feel that he seems to have some relationship with that soldier. "

"Who is that person?"

She raised her head suddenly and said, "Disciple, I kindly ask Tao Master to tell you in detail."

Qi Taiquan put his hands behind his back and walked slowly up the mountain, "Originally, I sensed your energy, so I thought of taking action to keep you here. However, with your current level of strength, it is not an easy task. "

After walking a few steps, he stopped on the first stone step, turned around and looked over, "Since you want to know who that person is, please do something for me. After you complete it, I will naturally tell you the details about this person." inform."

She bowed slightly and saluted again, "By helping the Taoist master, I am doing things for the mountain gate. As a disciple of Xuanwu, I naturally have the duty to do so."
