They spent a whole day watching the sun go down, making the mountain road even more difficult to walk. They raised their heads and watched the round sun sinking towards the outline of a mountain with a gap. The backlit mountain was black.
It was dark, like a monster with its mouth wide open, letting the sun fall in like it was swallowing egg yolk.
If you walk on an ordinary mountain at night, you have to be careful of the beasts that can attack at any time and travel at night. If you are a person with quick reactions and strong martial arts, this is not a difficult task. But it is different on Shiyue Mountain. You can rely on your skills.
How awesome
, if you take it lightly because of fatigue, step on the wrong foot and roll down the mountain, you don't know where you will end up. Even if you are lucky and your body is strong enough and you don't fall out, it will be frustrating to climb back to the previous height.
.
After discussing, they decided to find a place to rest and leave before dawn. No one wanted to risk their lives before meeting the prince-in-law who didn’t know whether he was a human or a ghost. No one knew what monsters might be lurking here.
, Bai Ya held up the torch and temporarily left the team to explore the road, trying to find a suitable place to rest.
After walking for a while, he came to a place with many trees. These trees were not dense, crooked, and relatively thin. The thickest tree could be easily wrapped around a person's arms and could catch the wrist.
.Perhaps the mountain is too steep, and the soil cannot be deposited too thickly, so the trees cannot absorb more nutrients. But it is relatively flat here, otherwise the tree seeds will not gather in this area.
Maybe this place would be more suitable. Bai Ya held a torch in one hand and stamped his feet vigorously to assess the thickness of the soil. But since there were trees, there might be some wild beasts lurking nearby. As soon as he thought of this, he heard some rustling coming from ahead.
rustling sounds
.The sound was very weak, and you couldn't hear it if you didn't listen carefully. He stared ahead alertly, and his other hand had already been turned around, resting on the handle of the knife. He moved forward carefully, approaching step by step, holding his breath.
Breathe and listen carefully to the movement ahead.
The rustling sound appeared again, farther away than before. Under the faint moonlight, he could see a small patch of low bushes in front of him. Maybe something was walking through there. It might not be a large animal, but it had a little potential.
He doesn't take any risks
He could let it go. What's more, he noticed an unusual chill. This cold chill was more special than the mountain itself. The mountain is natural, and the cold breath was like cold iron.
Made with a sharp blade.
The coolness flickered in and out, leaving Bai Ya unclear. If it wasn't evil spirit... then what could it be?
When he got closer, the breath showed no sign of moving. When he got closer and closer, he had already walked into the bushes. There was a rustling friction between the cloth and the leaves, and it was impossible not to notice the source of the breath.
But the other party still didn't move, maybe the source wasn't afraid of him.
Bai Ya was sure that he had found the source of the cold air, but there was nothing here. It couldn't be further away, and he felt incredible. While he was wandering in place, a leaf fell from in front of his eyes.
But there is no wind now.
Bai Ya noticed something strange and raised his head suddenly. Suddenly, a figure that was standing on a branch suddenly fell down. Without any hesitation, he immediately slashed at it with a knife. The blade brought with it a whistling wind.
Then it stopped abruptly.
The current situation was completely unexpected by him. It was a person - who knows, even the mountain ghost couldn't tell. His feet were hooked on the branches, and the whole person was hanging here upside down. His long hair was almost
He was about to touch the ground, but he just missed it. The tree was very tall, and his face was still above Bai Ya, but he stretched out two fingers as thin as dead wood and easily clamped the pure black blade. It was like
A black knife struck into the slender white wood and remained motionless.
"Who?"
Bai Ya lowered his voice, not wanting to alarm his friends, even though he had gone far enough. Rather than saying it was a person, he was more willing to believe that the thing hanging upside down in front of him might be the lonely ghost of Moon-eclipse Mountain. His lead
The gray hair was very long and thick, and the eyes were dark and hollow, staring straight at him like two holes. But Bai Ya was sure that he saw a dim, golden ring in those eyes.
halo.
Just like the moon on the third day of August.
He must have seen this similar sense of light - from Shui Wujun's eyes. Moreover, he had not seen it for a long time.
"you……"
The man didn't speak, and Bai Ya's strength never slackened for a moment, but he felt a little hesitant in his heart. The man's two fingers suddenly pressed harder, and he moved the blade away, interlaced his fingers quickly, and lightly touched the knife with his nails.
With a flick, Bai Ya's scimitar immediately made a sharp buzzing sound. This trembling numbness penetrated to the palm of his hand, and his entire arm and even half of his body were numb.
He took a step back, and the man immediately let go of his legs and fell from the tree. He used one hand to push downwards, pushing himself back a short distance, and his legs fell steadily to the ground. This is a skill
, Bai Ya quickly pulled out another knife. Then, the man's thick long hair slowly fell down like a thick dust cloud and rested on his black feather fabric.
He is very tall, very tall, with a thin body, which makes him look very long. There is a layer of white patterns on the feather fabric, the shape is indescribable, like spreading condensation of frost and snow. The one below is light gray
A long coat. He wore white stockings and wooden clogs on his feet. How could such clothing support him to climb such a high mountain?
Bai Ya's knife was still pointed at him, not daring to slack off at all. The man stretched his neck forward, like some kind of monster probing his head, but Bai Ya didn't back away. He stretched out his hand again and pinched him without fear.
The tip of the knife. The black tip spreads white
Frost marks continued to extend downward. Bai Ya opened his eyes wide and couldn't believe what he saw. What was he doing? Bai Ya tried to pull the knife back, but found that he was only holding the tip of the knife.
The contact surface, the knife and the person have also completely solidified together.
The black knife was about to turn white. But when the frost extended to about two-thirds of the knife, it stopped. Bai Ya found that this burst of white was also transitional, like a river that was getting thinner and thinner.
, and finally dried up on the hot earth.
"Um?"
The man seemed stunned for a moment.
"Are you the Six Paths of Impermanence?"
"Um……"
"Is that you?" Bai Ya's face showed unconcealable surprise, "The missing Liu Dao Impermanence...is it you?"
"Did Shui Wujun strike you with this knife?" He tilted his head, his eyes still on the knife.
"……yes."
"Who are you?" 100%
"He is my father's friend. Who are you?"
"As you can see." He spread out his other hand with an indifferent expression, "The six paths are impermanent."
"Which one is impermanent?"
"It's such a good knife." Ignoring Bai Ya's question, Wu Chang said, "Do you believe that if it were an ordinary piece of iron, if I put just a little force on it with my nails, it would break into ice shards?"
"Who are you anyway."
The sound of rapid footsteps came from far away. Needless to say, he must have been missing for too long, and his friends came to find him. He was worried that this lunatic-like Six Paths Impermanence would attack them - after all, Bai Ya knew that not all Impermanence ghosts would be like this.
Like Shui Wujun, there may also be some extremely vicious people among them.
"Wha, who is it?"
The first one who appeared was Qi Huan. Bai Ya rolled his eyes and cursed in his mind that the worst one came. Qi Huan was also startled, and he almost jumped up. Na Wuchang just glanced at him
.
"Why are you holding his knife?" Qi Huan shouted, but he took a step back, "I, let me tell you, he promised to give me the pair of knives!"
"...you fart."
Aoyan then walked out of the bushes. The moment she saw the two of them, Jun Aoyan immediately crossed Mo Dao and aimed at the unknown man. She didn't have the slightest fear and shouted to him:
"Who are you! Why did you get into a fight for no reason?"
"Little sister, please figure it out." He did not look at Aoyan, his eyes were fixed on Bai Ya, but he was talking to Aoyan, "The person who faced the sword first seems to be you little friend."
"Stay away from him!" Bai Ya said coldly, "You are no match for him."
"You question me?" Aoyan was quite dissatisfied.
"Your knife is like clay in his hand."
Seeing that a quarrel was about to start, Liu Shenghan stood behind Aoyan and Qihuan at some point. She missed them and walked forward until she reached the two people confronting each other. The impermanent ghost suddenly turned her head and spoke to them.
She looked at each other. He looked at her seriously, frowning slightly, showing a trace of doubt.
"Is it you?"
"Shuangyue Lord, you are fine."
"You...know each other?" Aoyan looked at the man again, "Is he the Six Paths Impermanence?"
"Shuangyue Lord? The Shuangyue Lord with the demon sword?" Qi Huan seemed to know better.
"Well. I have been traveling around the country with them recently. As for what happened, I will tell you in detail later. Don't make it difficult for him. Don't be angry, Shaoxia Bai, he is like this. When he sees someone with strong martial arts skills, he always
He is eager to give it a try...but he has absolutely no ill intentions, so don’t be offended."
Lord Shuangyue shrugged upon hearing this and loosened his fingertips boredly. The white frost marks quickly retreated from the blade. He turned around, looked Liu Shenghan up and down, and said, "You are quite leisurely. They know
What? It’s your business.”
"They know that I am a military doctor and came across the sea with General Jun."
Mr. Shuangyue seemed to understand something and nodded thoughtfully without saying any more.
"But why are you here?"
"I'm going to... Wu Kingdom." Lord Shuangyue took two more steps towards Bai Ya, who didn't move. "What about you? Why did you come to a ghost place like Shiyue Mountain? Aren't you afraid of being eaten by the Tengu?"
"We are passing through the Kingdom of Wu - if we have no choice."
Bai Ya held his head high, with no fear in his eyes. Lord Shuangyue was a very oppressive guy, both in body shape and aura. The coldness on his body was his unique martial arts, which could kill everything better than the harsh winter.
.His back is still straight,
But his neck was bent, like a snake leaning down from a high place, and he leaned forward tentatively. He looked at him with his frozen eyes, and a terrifying smile spread out from the corner of his mouth. This smile was also like a dark smile.
Snakes, snaking across steely glaciers.
"It's been a long time since I've seen a junior with such a profound foundation. If I have a chance... I really want to compete with you, little friend."
