Chapter 21

All masters will have the air of a master. Either they love face or they can't let go of their figure. People with status and status generally can't do things like pulling people's backs, because they still want face, and only Yan A person like Wu Shi who can even destroy the fragment of "Zhu Yang Ce" can do such a shameless thing. No wonder Yu Ai jumped with anger behind, and Shen Qiao was completely speechless.

Yan Wushi took him all the way down the mountain, directly through Xuandu Town, and came to the outskirts post where they first entered the town. There is a sparse small forest here, which is still quite empty.

He put Shen Qiao down.

Shen Qiaodao cupped his hands: "Thank you."

He fought against Yu Ai and was injured a little bit, and his blood was stagnant. After a long time, he felt the warmth slowly come back, and he felt conscious in his hands and feet.

But Yan Wushi smiled unceremoniously: "So what's the point of you going to Xuandu Mountain? It just confirms what I said that day, in front of interests, people's hearts are worthless. The brothers you grew up with since childhood. Guys, for profit, you can betray you without hesitation. For the position of headmaster, you can let you fall off the cliff without paying attention. Qifeng Pavilion prides itself on being an upright sect, bright and upright. It's breathtaking!"

Of course he knew that after Shen Qiao fell off the cliff, people from Xuandu Mountain also searched outside, but at that time Shen Qiao had been rescued by him, and those people naturally rushed to nothing, but Yan Wushi didn't need to help those people. To say good things, he would be more than happy to see Shen Qiao become discouraged and change from a desolate headmaster who is easily soft-hearted into a person full of hatred for the world.

But Shen Qiao didn't answer, he found a big rock next to him and sat down slowly.

Yu Ai is a bit paranoid, has a strong utilitarian heart, and wants to do the best in everything. This has been the case since he was a child. If it weren't for Xuandu Mountain, he might be a Yan Wushi today, but he has also been very fond of Xuandu Mountain over the years. It's true that he is wholehearted and has no secrets. The brothers and sisters love each other. No matter how hard-hearted they are, they can be warmed up. What's more, Yu Ai is not Yan Wushi after all, so before that, let alone Shen Qiao didn't think he would do it. If such a thing happens, I am afraid that Master Qi Fengge will be reborn, and he will not expect it.

He let himself be defeated in the battle with Kunxie, and lost to the Turks in full view. His reputation was ruined, and Yu Ai became the successor. No one would think that he was not qualified and could be done once and for all. Even if Shen Qiao was still alive, he would still be Shamelessly asked to continue to be the headmaster.

This sounds reasonable, but considering Yu Ai's oath at the time, his words excitedly said that he had difficulties, and that he was doing it for Xuandu Mountain to be superior to other sects in the world, and things seemed a little weird.

If what Yu Ai said was true, and there were other reasons, then what he was referring to was definitely not just secretly colluding with Kun Xie to design Shen Qiao's falling off the cliff.

He must also cooperate with the Turks on other more important matters.

Shen Qiao frowned, only to feel the pain in his head like a needle prick, and he couldn't figure it out.

Since the Jin Dynasty moved to the south, the Five Husbands have revolted against China. Although the regimes of various countries have changed frequently in recent years, the regimes of countries with a strong Hu style like Zhou and Qi have gradually become Sinicized because of the inheritance of the Han system. People accept it, but barbarian peoples like the Turkic royal court who still graze on the grasslands and invade the Central Plains from time to time are not called Ming masters anyway.

The Turks are capricious, and the image of brutality has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

So what is the other party planning, what can the Turks promise him, or what benefits can it bring to Xuandu Mountain?

Shen Qiao couldn't discuss these things with Yan Wushi.

Even if the two have a deep relationship now, they can't talk about friends. Yan Wushi is moody, uncertain of right and wrong, and it is even more impossible to have a deep conversation with him.

Shen Qiao could only ponder over and over in his heart.

It's just that no matter how you think about it, it's like there is a thin layer of window paper, and you can't think of the most critical point.

Yan Wushi suddenly said, "Have you had enough rest?"

Shen Qiao raised her head blankly, because she was still thinking about other things, her expression was a little innocent and absent-minded.

Yan Wushi: "If you have enough rest, let's play a game."

Shen Qiao: "..."

He smiled bitterly: "Sect Master Yan, how can I beat you? Didn't you try it last time?"

Yan Wushi said strangely: "Otherwise, why do you think I want to take you away? What does your life and death have to do with me? If I want the fragment of "Zhu Yangce", I can go directly to Xuandu Mountain to find it, why should I bring you? A burden? You are now carrying two fragments of "Zhu Yang Ce". It is only a matter of time before your martial arts resume. This opportunity is not necessarily available to everyone. I have long wanted to use someone who is proficient in "Zhu Yang Ce" to study Tao Hongjing's martial arts. , and it is impossible to fight with yourself, and it is impossible to find Xueting Bald Donkey to practice, aren't you the most suitable candidate?"

Shen Qiao's mouth twitched, she didn't know what to say.

After a long while, he said, "I only have 30% of my skill left. I just fought against Yu Ai and was injured.

Yan Wushi: "That's why I am merciful and let you sit here and rest for a while."

Shen Qiao was helpless: "Now I suddenly feel that being forced to stay in Xuandu Mountain is not a bad choice."

Yan Wushi: "You have recovered your memory now, which means that the part of "Zhu Yang Ce" that you have learned before can also be remembered and used freely, plus the part you listened to at Izumo Temple before, it is enough for you to master it. to the next level."

Shen Qiao thought for a while, then nodded honestly: "It's true."

From this point of view, although Yan Wushi's motives are not pure, and he has repeatedly saved the mind of using and watching a good show, he should still thank him.

Shen Qiao: "Since I left Bie Zhuang, I haven't thanked Sect Master Yan properly. If it wasn't for you, I'm afraid I'd be a dead soul in the next half-step peak now."

Yan Wushi: "What you should thank is the Zhu Yangce True Qi in your body. If you don't have it, I wouldn't be lazy to save you."

Shen Qiao rejoiced in the bitterness: "...Okay, I will go and put a stick of incense on the master, thank him for passing Zhu Yangce to me."

Yan Wushi: "When I played against Yu Ai, I didn't find that Zhu Yangce's true energy was in him. Presumably, Qi Fengge only passed it on to you."

Shen Qiao nodded: "That's right, the Master only passed on the Wandering Soul scroll to me that day, and only ordered me to recite it orally, and he was not allowed to transcribe it. Outsiders said that Xuandu Mountain had a scroll of Zhu Yangce hidden in it, but I still don't know that. Is Zhu Yangce still in Xuandu Mountain?"

Yan Wushi thought it was very interesting: "Don't Qi Fengge hope that Xuandu Mountain will be passed down from generation to generation, and all the disciples under it are promising, why would they only pass the wandering soul to you?"

Shen Qiao said slowly: "I asked Master about this before, but he didn't answer. Master and Tao Zhen were old friends. I heard that after Tao Zhen completed "Zhu Yang Ce", he felt regretful. As soon as this book comes out, it will attract endless competition from all over the world, and many murders in life, so I think that Shizunxing has a lot of this kind of thought, so that he hopes that the life-long efforts of the old man can be passed on to future generations, and he does not want to spread too much. Guang, let the world scramble to snatch and kill, only then can such a contradictory decision be made."

Yan Wushi sneered: "Women's benevolence! In this matter, Qi Fengge was like this. He did not kill all the foxes and deers that day, so as to leave hidden dangers to future generations. This is the same! There are no two women who are indecisive. If that's the case, why would he let Xuandu Mountain's disciples practice martial arts and directly change Xuandu Mountain to an ordinary Taoist temple? Isn't it better? There are no soldiers in the world, so start with yourself."

The remarks are bittersweet, but not entirely unreasonable.

Shen Qiao has something in common with his teacher, that is, a benevolent heart, and a tenderness that always considers others, but he is also different from Qi Fengge. These days, when he is away from home, he sees people's livelihoods withering, people suffering, and all the powers of the world. Involved in the chess game, his thinking has gradually changed, and he found that Xuandu Mountain is in the red dust, and it is impossible to escape safely.

It's a pity that he hasn't had time to make any changes to Xuandu Mountain yet, Yu Ai can't wait to replace it, and completely take Xuandu Mountain to an unknown direction.

He bowed his head slightly, lost in thought.

Yan Wushi over there was silent and without warning, and his finger had already been pointed.

Since Shen Qiao had lost sight of his eyes, he had deliberately exercised his ear strength. At this time, he heard some strange movements, and hurriedly slapped the stone, jumped up, and quickly retreated.

Xuandu Mountain's light work is unparalleled in the world, and this set of "sky wide and rainbow shadow" is used, and it is like a wind and a lotus, the clear water is looking forward, the willows stretch, and the romance is difficult to describe, and the shadow of his heyday of power has been faintly seen.

It's just that Shen Qiao's skill has not recovered after all, Yan Wushi's speed is much faster than him, and he is half a step behind. Shen Qiao.

Fortunately, he was able to get his true energy in time, and his face was not splashed, but half of his sleeves were cut into pieces by sharp stones. The stones even scratched his wrist, and blood beads flowed down his white wrist immediately.

"Chunshui's soft waves pity Zhaoying, his infatuation has turned into ash, and it really lives up to its reputation!" Shen Qiao ignored the injury on his wrist, but concentrated on listening to the other party's movement.

According to Yan Wushi's style of behavior, since he takes action, he will never show mercy.

Through these days of getting along, Shen Qiao is still very clear about this.

In today's game, we have to fight until the other party is satisfied and happy, otherwise it will be a vain death.
