Hidden Blade Chapter 103: Live well
March 14th.
There was a drizzle in Henghuangcheng at night.
Lu Houde sat in the luxurious box in the ancient road building and threw the wine glass in his hand on the ground.
The cups and lanterns shattered, and the fragments scattered all over the floor.
Hu Man'er and Xing Zhen on the side were dull, and the expressions on their faces were equally heavy.
According to Xie Minyu's explanation when he left, the three of them should have been cultivated quietly, waiting for the sword holders to compete. After all, because of the sword order, all parties in the arena were quite dissatisfied with Xie Minyu’s actions that day. At the cusp of this storm, the three of Lu Houde naturally did not dare to look for Xu Han and others. Trouble, they all acted like turtles with their heads shrunk, hiding in the old building all day long.
What's counterproductive is that they don't trouble other people, but others just ask them for trouble.
Previously, Xu Han and others stole the Longmen Meeting invitations carried by the elite disciples brought by Lu Houde, causing the disciples of Chixiaomen to lose their qualifications to participate in the Sword Holder Competition. In addition to the hundreds of elite disciples who died in the battle with swordsmanship, this trip across the imperial city has brought huge losses to the Chixiao Gate both in terms of fame and strength.
In order to make up for this loss, Chixiaomen later sent more than a dozen elite disciples and an elder of the Dayan Realm from the sect to try to participate in this sword-bearer competition. After all, the benefits brought by the Demon Tower are really eye-catching, and the strength of a sect can not help but be strong at this moment, and more importantly, it is also the cultivation of the younger generation.
Even if one of the dozen or so dispatched people can board the fairyland in the future thanks to the help of the Demon Suppression Tower, it is a great thing for the Chixiao Gate.
But because the Dragon Gate Club has long ended, it is naturally impossible to open another Dragon Gate Club for the Chixiao Gate.
Therefore, the Da Neng in the door secretly contacted the owner of the sword pavilion, Xiao An.
In the eyes of most people, Xiao An, who has been in charge of the sword pavilion for more than 30 years, is an insatiable figure.
In his eyes, there are no friends, no enemies, only interests.
That's why he got close to the Chixiao Gate for a Fire Cloud Order, and the Chixiao Gate became bigger because of this, and became the first of the three.
Although the unpleasant battle of the sword holding command made him have a grudge against the Chixiao Gate, after paying a sufficient price, the pavilion owner of the sword holding pavilion finally nodded and allowed more than ten. An elite disciple and the elder of the Great Evolvement Realm participated in the sword-wielding competition.
After all, Jianjian Pavilion is not the Jianjian Pavilion of Xiao An's family. There is also a giant like Longyin Temple behind it. Therefore, such bad rules cannot be exposed after all. Therefore, the selected disciples and elders did not disclose any wind and secretly rushed to Henghuangcheng.
They thought that with the prestige of the Chixiao Gate and the name of Xiao An, the master of the sword-holding pavilion, they would directly consider these more than ten people as the contestants when the sword-holders were compared. By then, even those people from the rivers and lakes would be dissatisfied. , I didn't dare to raise too much objection after thinking about it.
This is of course a good thing for the Chi Xiaomen.
After all, the stronger the position of the Chixiaomen, the more comfortable Lu Houde and others, who are the elders of the Chixiaomen, will naturally be.
But there was an error in this matter.
The more than ten elite disciples and the elders of the Dayan Realm who led the team, it is reasonable to say that they should arrive in Henghuangcheng three or four days ago. The Lu Houde and others who were ordered to receive also made preparations early, but they left and waited. Can’t wait for this group of people to contact Zongmen, Zongmen also did not get such news. The three were a little uneasy, so they went out of Henghuangcheng to look for them. They were a hundred miles away from Henghuangcheng. The corpses of this group of people were found in a mountain forest.
Jianghu is a river and lake after all. Even if there is a recognized organization supervising the swordsman pavilion, feuds of the rivers and lakes often occur in Daxia.
But this kind of thing mostly happened to those little sects, and even the gangsters who have no sect. Chixiaomen has never seen such a tragedy in the past two hundred years.
Lv Houde and others were shocked and reported the incident to the sect, but the master teacher Xie Minyu was busy coping with the third calamity, and the other two immortal-level elders were also hidden for many years. He didn't respond to the three in time, so this was the scene of Lu Houde furious in this ancient building.
"I have never had such a tragedy in the Chixiao Clan for two hundred years! These gangsters don't put us in the eyes!" Lu Houde was dull for a long time, finally gritted his teeth and said coldly at that time.
"Will it be Xu Han's group, holding a grudge" Hu Man'er put forward his own conjecture.
But this idea was quickly rejected by Lu Houde.
"Although the kid has some abilities, it is absolutely impossible to kill so many disciples and a strong man in the Great Evolution Realm, and everyone except Xu Han has been confined to their new courtyard these days. In China, they didn't go out, it won't be them." Lu Houde, who had fought against Xu Han, said so.
"Will it?" Hu Maner had to say something more, but before he could speak, he was interrupted again by Lu Houde.
"Tomorrow will be the competition of sword holders. No matter who takes the shot at our Scarlet Sect, as long as we are qualified as sword holders and pass the Demon Suppression Tower, then my Scarlet Sect will definitely go further. Those who think Those who retaliate against us will show their feet."
Hearing this, Xing Zhen and Hu Man'er looked at each other, and they nodded their heads at that time. Naturally, they were determined to win the position of this sword bearer from the bottom of their hearts.
At the same time, Chu Qiuli frowned in the other courtyard where Yan Zhan and others were.
Tomorrow is the time for the sword-bearer competition to begin, but Xu Han is still missing.
This makes everyone quite worried. This is because Xu Han is afraid that Xu Han will miss the sword-holder competition, but these two are even more worried about what accidents happened to him when he went out alone.
Everyone wanted to see through, but they didn't wait for Xu Han until late at night, so they could only fall asleep one after another.
In the dead of night, a violent cough suddenly came from Mr. Wei's door.
After that battle, the old man has been bedridden for a month. His condition is really worrying, but he has never talked about Chu Qiuli and others, but at this time, the old man’s The situation seemed to have worsened again. The coughing was unable to stop for a long time, and he even coughed up bleeding threads in the end.
At this moment, a white glow lit up in the huge wooden box beside him, and the handsome monster man who had a relationship with Xu Han and others appeared again in the door of the room.
He looked at the old man, sighed, and finally walked forward unbearably, and put his hand on the old man’s back, a soft white light surged, and the old man’s violent cough was actually there. Under the nourishment, gradually calmed down.
He turned his head and glanced at the man behind him, with a hard smile on his face, and said, "Thank you."
The man shook his head helplessly, and said: "You are too impulsive, so they must have noticed your existence like you"
Mr. Wei knew that what he was referring to was naturally that day, and he took action to block the Vermillion Bird that could only turn the entire Henghuangcheng into ashes. The old man was a little ashamed: "But after all, I can't die without saving."
"Everyone will be saved, and in the end you will not be able to save anyone." The man sneered.
For this, the old man answered silently.
It seems that the atmosphere at this moment is too dull, the man thought about it, and then suddenly said: "That kid you sent is nice."
"Really." The old man smiled too.
After that, the two of them will inevitably be silent again.
The man sinks his brows, and finally asks the question that has been holding back for a long time: "The Millennium Tribulation is approaching~IndoMTL.com~How sure are you?"
"Since ancient times, no one has been able to carry that tribulation, I dare not say it." In time, I knew that such a thing would make a man unhappy, but the old man still told the truth.
Unexpectedly, the man was not half angry. He stared at the old man and asked again: "Where is the watcher? Have you seen him?"
The old man shook his head again: "The Starry Sky is too vast. I tried to contact them by secret method, but I didn't get any answer."
"So, do we have to rely on ourselves?" The man's face grew gloomy.
"I think so." The old man stood up, he also looked at the man, and suddenly smiled: "But don't worry, I have already arranged your escape route."
The man was stunned for a moment. He probably guessed what the so-called back road was, but he didn't feel at ease because of it.
"The jackal looks around, no matter how long he lives, he can't live long." When he said this, the man paused, his expression suddenly awe-inspiring, he stared at the old man, and said every word: "This time, I think"
"Have you seen the instructor of the Chixiao Clan? How do you feel?" It's just that he was interrupted by the old man before he finished speaking.
The man paused. He probably didn't quite understand why he would mention this person who is not related to their topic at this time.
But after frowning, he truthfully replied: "It's just a shameless man who twists the road and uses all means to achieve his goal."
The old man nodded and said: "This is what you said is naturally correct. But there is one sentence he said right."
"Huh?" The man looked at the old man in confusion.
"There is hope only if you live"
The old man said with deep eyes, he stretched out his hand and pressed it on the man's shoulder at that time.
"So, stay alive."
