Taiping Inn

This sword cut a gully on the ground that was more than a foot wide, two feet deep, and ten feet long, just like the Chu River and Han River on a chessboard.

The old Taoist breathed a sigh of relief.

This sword energy was pure and without any bloody smell, it must be someone from the righteous path.

The female tree demon was shocked and angry, but also had some unspeakable fear. She had just faced this sword directly, and naturally could feel the power of this sword more clearly than anyone else. If she was hit by such a sword without any preparation, even if she didn't die, she would be seriously injured and it would be difficult to recover without several years.

But before the woman could do anything, another figure fell from the sky, dressed as a scholar, and landed between the woman and the old Taoist. I think it was the person who had just stimulated the sword energy.

The woman stared at this immortal guest, and the surrounding trees moved with her emotions. Countless vines were like poisonous snakes winding on the ground, ready to choose people at any time.

However, this uninvited guest was not someone like the old Taoist who was not good at fighting. Since he could stimulate the sword energy, he was most likely a warrior, and he was also a sword-wielding warrior, who was best at attacking and had the most killing power. He was holding a snow-white long sword in his hand, and the blade was surrounded by frost-white sword energy, like a snow python. As he waved his arm, the snow python rolled, and the surrounding vines were swept away, and even a layer of white frost formed on the leaves and branches, which was chilling.

The woman took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her chest, and without any nonsense, she retreated directly to the "Summer Palace" behind her.

The gate of the palace was open, and it was deep and dark. After the woman retreated into it, she disappeared immediately, but the gate was not closed, but still open, as if to invite her into a trap.

The old Taoist hurriedly reminded: "The evildoer is only equivalent to the cultivation level of the Return to Truth Realm in this ghost forest, but once he enters his lair, he can have the cultivation level of the Heavenly Man Realm. Don't chase him rashly."

The man followed his advice and did not chase him. He dispersed the sword energy on the long sword in his hand, and then put the snow-white long sword into the sheath at his waist.

The old Taoist patted the dirt on his body, put the borrowed copper coin sword back to its original position behind his back, and bowed his hands and said: "I am Nan Kezi of Donghua Sect. Thank you... Sir for helping me. I don’t know your name? Are you from the Wanxiang Academy?"

The young man with a white sword on his waist laughed dumbly and shook his head and said: "My surname is Li and my name is Xuandu. I just admire the saint's teachings, so I dress as a scholar. I am not from the academy."

The man who came was Li Xuandu who said goodbye to Yu Qingning and Zhou Shuning. After leaving Longmen Prefecture, he went all the way north to Beimang County, intending to find Yan Feiqing and Su Yun'an. But at this time, there were only a few disciples of the Zhengyi Sect left in Beimang County. After Li Xuandu showed the jade token representing the Zhengyi Sect, several disciples told him that Yan Feiqing and Su Yun'an had already entered the mountain, so Li Xuandu left the county again and headed for Beimang Mountain.

Li Xuandu naturally had no intention of slaying demons and monsters here, but when he passed by this place, he happened to see the Yin Qi rising to the sky. Since he saw it, it would be bad to watch him die without saving him. After all, he was now at the Xiantian realm of Kunlun, and ordinary demons and ghosts were really no match for him, so he saved Nan Kezi with a sword.

"It turns out to be Mr. Li. I have heard of you for a long time." Nan Kezi first said a polite word, and then said: "This place is dangerous and it is not suitable to stay for a long time. Mr. Li, can you leave here with me first?"

Li Xuandu looked at the dark gate of the "Summer Palace" and nodded: "Master, what you said is very true."

Nan Kezi finally breathed a sigh of relief. If this swordsman who saw injustice and fought for justice insisted on going to the "Summer Palace" to find out what was going on, he couldn't help but follow him. After all, he had just saved his life. If he just left, it would be too shameless. But if he followed, he knew how much he weighed and how many pounds he had. He was afraid that he would be eaten alive by the monster. That would be a dilemma. Fortunately, this chivalrous knight looked young, but he was an old man in the world. He knew the priorities and didn't make it too difficult for him.

The old Taoist turned around and walked in front, and Li Xuandu walked behind. The two walked along the mossy bluestone path to the outside of the forest. After they left, the stone tablet with four blood-red characters "Summer Palace" slowly sank into the ground, and only one "Bi" and half of the "Summer" character remained. Then the gate of the "Summer Palace" slowly closed, and the entire palace began to fade, and finally disappeared. Then countless trees covered it, and finally even the fog and treetops that Li Xuandu broke through with a sword returned to their original state, leaving only a bluestone path that stopped abruptly, and everything became the same as it was at the beginning.

When the two walked out of this dense forest full of ghosts, they found that the drizzle outside had stopped at some point, and the yin energy between heaven and earth also faded a little.

Li Xuandu asked, "I don't know why the chief came here? Is it for the Taiyin corpse?"

The old Taoist was a little embarrassed and didn't want to tell the truth, but then he thought about it and was a life-saving benefactor. So after careful consideration, he slowly said: "This is a long story. I was born in the Donghua Sect. It is one of the four Taoist sects. I believe Mr. Li should also know that the so-called four Taoist sects are: Zhengyi, Miaozhen, Donghua, and Shenxiao, because only the disciples of these four sects will become monks and Taoists, as for the other Qing dynasties Whether it is Weizong or Xuannuzong, they are all secularists. Among our four families, except for Zhengyi, which belongs to Zhengyi, which can be married, the other three sects are Quanzhen, which cannot be married. Because of this, I have no children and no thoughts, so I just want to find a suitable disciple to pass on the incense of the mantle. But I have done a lot of things to drive away evil spirits and catch ghosts over the years, and I have also made money. I have been much more, but I have never found a suitable disciple. In desperation, I entrusted the matter to a friend and asked her for help. She did make the matter done, so I owed her A favor."

The old man sighed, "This time the Taiyin corpse was born, which caused a lot of controversy, but it had nothing to do with me. Others eliminated demons and defended me, but I only care about elixirs. But my friend was quite interested in this Taiyin corpse. I asked me to help me find it. It happened that I had learned some skills in finding dragons and looking for qi on weekdays, but I couldn't refuse. I could only come to this Beimian Mountain to help find the place where Taiyin corpse was born. "

Speaking of this, the old Taoist still looked back at the dense forest behind him with lingering fear, but after thinking of a swordsman with great force beside him, his heartstrings that had just collapsed and said, "I will follow you." The mountain range was searching all the way, but by chance, I found this place. Unexpectedly, it was the summer palace built by Empress Mingkong, and it was also occupied by a tree demon. I accidentally entered it. If Mr. Li hadn't helped him today, I would have become the unjust death soul of the tree demon."

Li Xuandu said slowly, "You are the one who is not my race, and their hearts will be different." Even if people are like this, let alone monsters? The human and monster have different paths and are incompatible. Li takes action today, and he is responsible for it."

The old Taoist was also deeply moved. In the early years, he had no experience in the world and felt that monsters had good monsters, and people and monsters should live in harmony. Now it seems that they are farting. Whether it is the spiritual energy in the world or the treasures of heaven and earth, there are only so many people. Use more people and use less monsters. Therefore, people and monsters have never been incompatible. Today, the tree demon is just As soon as they met, they shouted and shouted to kill? Even if he did something wrong and disturbed its tranquility, he would not die. After all, it wasn’t that the tree demon was greedy for his flesh and blood and wanted to increase his cultivation after eating it.

Just like the battle between good and evil that has been fighting for hundreds of years, taking the Pin Nu Sect as an example, there may be a few women who are not stained with mud, but one or two people are clean does not mean that the entire Pin Nu Sect is clean. How do many geniuses who died unjustly? It's not all about death. Take Wudao Sect as an example. Among the four kings, the Seven Killing Kings are a person with a temperament, but it does not mean that the other three are also a person with a temperament. The Hundred Barbarians often destroy all the people, and children do not let them go. That is also a person with a person with a temperament. Intersection

So the same is true for humans and demons. This Mr. Li is right. People are still like this, how can demons bear it?
