lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of the sealing knife!

There are innumerable three things in martial arts.

The miscellaneous fish of the three religions and nine streams, the love and hatred of the disciples of various sects, the desperadoes of the palace of the souls.

The so-called desperadoes refer to the large number of dead soldiers under the burial palace and the people who died in their hands.

The former Gu Xiao has not met for the time being, but the latter has seen a lot.

There was a village at the foot of the mountain where he lived when he was young, called "Baihua Village", because the village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the villagers don’t often communicate with the outside world. The troubled times have not invaded this place for many years, and they were handed over by Gu Qifang. After the bandits, the villagers lived and worked in peace and contentment, as if they were in the fairyland of Taoyuan, but now they have changed their appearance there.

After going down the mountain, Gu Xiao went to the old place to revisit. Originally, he planned to meet the scenery of his childhood and look for the villager's playmates who took care of him when he was young. But when he got there, he saw the calm and desolate village. Many people’s houses were dilapidated, and many new graves were added at the head of the village.

Especially, those people who died have had more or less friendship with the three of their masters and apprentices.

The village head cow doctor is kind and kind. He drove the only drug store in a radius of fifty miles. When Gu Xiao was a child, but had headaches and brain fever, he always went to his doctor to get medicine, but such a good person was picked up one night five years ago. The whole family didn’t even let the guard dog off. A total of eight people were neatly placed at the entrance of the drugstore;

Ms. Xu, who sells tofu brains, is young and widowed, serves a mother-in-law with disabled legs and a son who is less than seven years old. She especially likes Gu Xiao. Every time she sees a bowl of hot tofu brains, she will surely send a bowl of hot tofu brains. Such a gentle woman was shaved off her face alive and posted on the dirt wall in her home, frightening her early son;

Sister Lian, who grows flowers and keeps bees in Murao, is a cowardly and gentle woman. She always has a red face when she sees Duanqing. She only dared to send a bunch of flowers with dew, took a peek at it from a distance, and was stared by Gu Qifang. Going back, she was never wicked, but she was dug out her eyes, chopped off her hands, and pushed into the bushes of thorns...

Twenty-five people in Baihua Village were killed overnight, and even if they had grievances, they were just small quarrels. How could such a disaster be caused?

Not to mention, the dead were all intersected with the three of their masters and apprentices.

Gu Xiao remembered the siege he encountered when he and Duan Qing went down the mountain, and remembered that Gu Qifang had returned here after moving, but when he returned, his face was stern, and his hand was shocked and bloody.

That was also the first time he saw Master really angry.

Gu Xiao had an intuition that the murderer was directed at them, but they happened to take a step first, and the murderer who couldn't find the target took these innocent people to vent their anger.

That day was overcast, Gu Xiao went to pay homage to the grave of the dead, bowed his head respectfully, then turned around and went to their former residence to investigate one by one.

There are not many people in the village, and the houses where people died are mostly unlucky. They have been abandoned for many years. Gu Xiao turned himself into a gray monkey jumping up and down. Only then did he find a handful that was left behind in Lady Xu The dagger in the house.

The dagger is built with blood grooves and barbs. It is not difficult to imagine how its owner would hold it and peel off an innocent woman. Gu Xiao looked carefully for a while and found a small pattern carved on the handle.

The flower resembles a poppy. It is a unique Prajna flower in the Southwestern Mizongling Mountain. Because it grows bloodthirsty and uses dead animals as nourishment, it is also called the "blossom flower".

And there is only one power in Mizong Ridge-the Palace of Soul Burial.

Gu Xiao tracked down the soul-burial palace for half a year. Although he walked and stopped all the way, the other party acted curiously and rarely left a tail, so that he hadn't officially handed over with the people in the soul-burial palace, but he did not expect to be here. Seized the opportunity.

No matter what old grievances the soul burial palace has with the master, since they can anger others to this point, once they find Feiyun Peak, it may be another big trouble. When Gu Xiao thought of this, he finally got serious and asked, "Where did you escape?"

Chu Yao was young and didn't remember very clearly, so he had to pour beans out of a bamboo tube, and it took a long time for Gu Xiao to find clues from these nonsense-he was **** in Mianfeng City and traveled by land for three days. Escape at night in Jinshui Town.

Gu Xiao thought about it in her heart and found that the route of this group was all the way to the west. In other words, they were probably going to Mizongling.

When he made up his mind, Gu Xiao stopped talking. Chu Yao waited for a while without hearing the following, moved restlessly in his arms, and asked carefully: "What's the matter?"

Gu Xiao hasn't recovered yet, she consciously opened her mouth in a yellow cavity: "You don't want to rub the **** boy casually. Be careful to wipe your gun away...Puff, I didn't say anything."

He suddenly remembered that he was a seven or eight-year-old doll in his arms, and suddenly felt that the yellow accent was too beastly, and he quickly reined in.

Chu Yao: "...what did you say?"

"A good boy must learn to pretend to be deaf and dumb." Gu Xiao touched his head lovingly, "Come on, sleep, or do you need me to tell you a story?"

Chu Yao hesitated for a while before he let out an "um".

Gu Xiao didn’t actually read any stories when he was a child. Normally, if he can’t sleep, he will either be hypnotized by the sound of his wife reciting poems and scriptures, or he will be picked up by the master and rioted all night until exhausted. The most miscellaneous books I have ever read are small notebooks from Master’s room, but the stuff that records the glamorous chapters of the market is definitely not suitable for children. Gu Xiao asks herself that she is not as good as a beast and can’t do it. Such a wicked thing for cattle.

So he decided to use the materials to live his life, and now make up and sell now——

"In a place far, far away, there is a horrible female bandit. She is eight feet long and has a pig-killing knife hanging from her waist. She eats children’s heart every day, and she always likes to go down the mountain. Robbing a man, then she snatched a good-looking man up the mountain..."

Chu Yao trembled in his arms: "Does she want to strip skin to make clothes..."

"You are a ghost story, it is not true at all." Gu Xiao curled her lips. "Later this man became her wife, and the female bandit picked up another child. From then on, he changed his mind and became a family of three. , A happy ending."

Chu Yao: "..."

After all, he slept in Gu Xiao's arms. When he woke up, he found that he was three poles in the sun, and he was backed by Gu Xiao. This **** was holding the flower girl a Qiuju in one hand and a small one in the other. Drinking in a hip flask.

Chu Yao blinked and saw that there were all neighborhoods and markets around him, and he was stunned, almost thinking he was dreaming.

"...Where is this?"

"Golden Water Town."

Chu Yao was horrified. He had just escaped from Jinshui Town and hid all the way in a merchant's car. It took a day of bumps to get out of the city, and he ran in the wilderness for more than a day, but he did not expect to just fight After a nap, he returned to this place.

Gu Xiao explained: "The rain stopped shortly after you fell asleep last night. I was thinking about leaving early, and seeing that you were sleeping like a dead pig, so I just let go of the horse and take you with me. I hurried lightly and entered the city early in the morning."

While speaking, he put Chu Yao down, and as soon as the little baby fell on the ground, he drilled behind him, wishing to bury his face in his clothes. As a result, this guy pulled him in front of him instead, exposing a chubby little face to broad daylight, as if he was afraid that others could not see clearly.

Chu Yao: "...what are you doing?"

"I took you around Jinshui City for most of the day, but let alone someone looking for fault, I didn't even meet a sneaky stalker." Gu Xiao patted his head and lowered his voice, "What is this? They don’t take you seriously, or do they say...their purpose has been achieved, and you are a little child that doesn’t matter to them?"

Chu Yao didn't quite understand it, but faintly smelled something unusual from Gu Xiao's words.

Gu Xiao said with a chuckle, but she was not at all relaxed.

Chu Yao, the child’s dress is either rich or noble. He doesn’t speak and talk like an ordinary child. It is a temperament that ordinary wealthy people can’t raise. It can be seen that neither he nor his so-called brother’s identities are simple; besides, the burial palace Not the bandits who robbed the house, they just **** two wealthy children and started extorting them for money. Since they had bothered to take them away, why didn’t they delay their journey after losing one of them? Not to mention chasing crazy, even staying behind. The tricks to be trusted didn't stay, which was too strange.

Unless...The real goal of the Soul Burial Palace is only his brother, and he does not intend to take the child's life, let alone leaking the news from him.

Watching the smile on his face disappeared, Chu Yao was inexplicably scared, and carefully tugged at the corner of his clothes, and asked: "Then...what shall we do?"

Gu Xiao looked down at him and asked: "Are there many people who tie you?"

"Not many, I can't count ten fingers twice." Chu Yao thought for a while, "but they drove four cars, my brother and I were tied to the middle car, but only two people guarded him. ."

"Did your brother say anything or give you anything when he let you go?"

Chu Yao bit his finger and thought for a long time, and forced himself to look back on the memory of the panic and shattered night. Gu Xiao also waited patiently.

"He said...'the wind is blowing in the north', and he gave me a small cloth bag." Chu Yao touched his body, but it was bumpy all the way, and the thing that was wrapped up in rags had been messed up early. Lost it, he had to try to remember what was inside, "There is a pinch of black powder in the cloth bag, which smells very stinky, like... well, like the smell of firecrackers during the New Year!"

"North, is it windy?"

Gu Xiao frowned, her thoughts turned sharply, and at a certain moment, suddenly thunder exploded in her mind, and her face changed suddenly!

The place of Jinshui City is the junction of North and South. From Mianfeng to Jinshui, the route is one line to the south. Therefore, he speculated in advance that the people of the Soul Burial Palace wanted to return to the Mizong Ridge, but... there is another possibility, they It was here to abandon horses and change boats, and go northward from the waterway!

Although Gu Xiao didn’t travel much during this time, he had heard about the border warfare. I heard that there were fierce kings in the north who rebelled and colluded with the barbarians. Fortunately, he was defeated by the border guard. The defenses were all connected into an iron barrel, and the rebels were not allowed to succeed, so they had to retreat for seven miles, stationed across the river, still staring at him.

The war in the north is urgent, and the inner city is also surging. It is said that some people who are restless have started smuggling salt and iron business, taking advantage of the troubled times to make huge profits, and they should collude with the traitors. Some innocent forces in the martial arts have even begun to take over assassinations against imperial court dignitaries and gunpowder weapons. Plunder.

The pungent black powder, probably gunpowder, and these two kids...

Gu Xiao squinted her eyes and looked deeply at the little meatballs who were at a loss--

He was negligent. There are many people surnamed Chu in this world, but there are not many who are really worthy of the soul burial palace, and the most expensive and unspeakable of them is...the country named Tianhuang Noble.
