After Zhong Xihou left, another person sat where Zhong Xihou was originally sitting. This person was wearing a blood-red robe, with a bamboo hat covering his face. There were some flame patterns on the red robe, and he sat
There, it seemed like I was at ease.
"This wine glass was used just now by the Lord of the Nightless City..."
The man didn't care. He picked up the jug, poured a glass of wine into it, and took a sip: "Grape wine luminous cup, how can you use such silverware to hold wine."
Zhu Jiannan tried to calm down, but he was still breathing heavily. Looking at the person coming, he felt a lot more at ease in his heart.
"It's not even fifteen yet, why are you here today?"
The man took out a piece of talisman paper from his arms, a bright yellow talisman paper: "This is from Kang Jinlong."
"Did you really kill him?" Zhu Jiannan stood up, coughed again, and sat down again, "Do you know what Marquis Zhong Xi came to talk to me about just now?"
"He wants you to find the murderer who killed Kang Jinlong and the people in Sleepless City. Who is that? That's right."
"You know that and you still smile so proudly?"
"Young Master, it is better to take care of your own health. Blood Phoenix promised the eldest Young Master, so naturally he will not do anything that damages the reputation of the Zhu family or embarrasses the Zhu family."
"Then why are you?"
"The embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed in an ant nest, you should understand it. Young Master Ying Ruge in Muhan Tower and Zhong Xihou in the West City are both monster-like existences. Duobao Pavilion in Muhan Tower
A talisman called Ten Thousand Burials has been developed, and you should understand it."
There was a roar of a horse, Blood Phoenix, Zhu Jiannan and Thunder Niu all looked towards the source of the sound. This was not a horse, but it looked like a horse. Under the moonlight, the man who looked like a scholar in white was riding on a strange horse that looked like a horse but not a horse.
Above the beast, the horse's hoofs stepped on the ice-blue flames, and just walked through the air.
Blood Phoenix's wine glass just landed on the ground. His man was already ten feet away from the table and chair, and he jumped towards the man in white.
"Is it possible that you are the Blood Phoenix, the best swordsman in Yi Shuihan?" The scholar asked with a smile. Blood Phoenix's left and right hands each formed a blood-red sword. The one on the left hand was one and a half feet long, and the one on the right hand was three and a half feet long.
Such two empty swords, one long and one short.
"Turning blood into a sword is really not something ordinary human beings can do."
"It's not just that!"
His sword slashed at the scholar, but the scholar did not dodge or dodge. Blood Phoenix's sword did not cut down. It was because his sword was too blunt, or his sword itself did not exist.
The scholar opened his hand, clasped his thumb and middle finger together, and with a "break" sound, the blood phoenix was rebounded by a surge of momentum.
He turned around several times in the air and landed with one hand on the ground.
"you are not human."
"Why are you so good at scolding others?" The scholar still had a smile on his face. He gently shook the jade fan in his hand and looked at the two people from the sky.
Zhu Jiannan stood up and bowed his hands with his hands, bending his waist slightly: "Sir, are you the Taoist Lord in white in the city that never sleeps?"
"Is it difficult to read?" Blood Phoenix silently recited this name in his heart?
"So many days have passed, and I have never come to express my gratitude to you. I am really ashamed." The horse-like mount gradually disappeared, and the book slowly floated down from the air. The man in white clothes, black hair, and graceful clothes looked like an immortal.
Shu Nan took out the jade pen from his sleeve and said, "For many years, I have been looking for a pen that is good for my hand. The virtue of a gentleman will be rewarded by Shu Nan."
"Hahaha, Jiannan's original intention is to find a counselor who is familiar with astronomy and geography. Sir, he is indeed an extraordinary person and is not moved by material things."
Blood Phoenix's body gradually turned into a pool of blood, and the blood evaporated in an instant. Shu Nan looked interesting, no wonder this person was named Blood Phoenix.
"How did the eldest son find this swordsman? Does he know?"
"Xiao Lei was rescued by his brother, and his ancestors invited him to visit Lingxi. How the Blood Phoenix came to be, I really don't know."
"You are a servant, but you don't treat each other with sincerity. The more someone hides something, the more terrifying it is, and you understand that too, sir."
"Sir, are you talking about yourself?" Zhu Jiannan walked slowly behind Shu Nan. This person was just a literati from a family with a decent income or who had joined a wealthy lord. "Sir, you are staying beside City Lord Zhong."
In these years, I have never shown my true ability to the city lord, so isn’t the person that the gentleman calls scary the same as him?"
"Blood Phoenix also said just now that we are not ordinary people. Zhong Xihou is indeed an extraordinary person, but he is still a human being after all."
Zhu Jiannan suddenly felt a fishy taste in his throat, covered his face with a fan, then walked slowly back to the original place and sat down.
"It seems that the time has come for the young master..."
"If you get used to it, whatever is supposed to come will come. If sir can help..."
The book is hard to read and it says: "I am here today to thank you for your kindness, but even if I don't send you this gift, it will follow me when the time comes. In the affairs of the world, the book can only read, but not interfere."
"
"Jian Nan doesn't know whether he is a human being or a god, whether he is a human being or a god. How can he just watch the people in the world and leave them in dire straits without even caring about them?"
"No, there once was a flower in this world. The flower had five petals, like crystal, and each petal was of the same color. It was a multicolored crystal flower. Give each of the five petals of this multicolored crystal flower to one person, and you will get green, red, and red.
The spiritual energy of the five emperors Bai, Xuan and Huang are used to rectify the world."
"Where to find
To these five people?”
"These five people will appear. Maybe these people are all together originally, but these people can't say. The crystal flower is one thing, and there is another thing that the young master wants to do."
"If it can bring blessings to the world, admonishing men will be like dogs and horses."
"Since the beginning of the human world, there has been a strict hierarchy of princes, generals, ministers, scholars, farmers, industry and merchants. If you don't have the same surname as the Emperor, you can't be a king, and if you don't have unparalleled merits, you can't become a prince."
"What do you mean, sir?" Zhu Jiannan frowned slightly. He knew that the secret must not be revealed, but was it necessary for this book to be so roundabout?
Shu Nan suddenly laughed out loud. He took out the jade pen and wrote back and forth in the air. Nine blue-covered books appeared around him and floated. "If you have any questions, young master, you can choose a book. If you want to know more,
If you don’t know, it’s all in this book.”
"The Heavenly Book Locks Traces..."
Shu Nan could not help but be surprised, and then said calmly: "It seems that the young master recognizes the seal mark of this heavenly book."
"Brother once told Jian Nan that the Five Emperors of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors all left behind treasures passed down from generation to generation, including the Blue Emperor's jade pen, the Red Emperor's flame ink, the White Emperor's sandpaper, the Xuan Emperor's black inkstone, and the Yellow Emperor's Heavenly Book."
"It seems that your brother Zhu Jianying is not an ordinary person." Shu Nan raised his hand, and the nine heavenly books disappeared. "If anyone has ever been to the Immortal Forbidden Palace, then it seems that Xiaoke's heavenly book cannot be shown to the young master.
Already."
"Immortal Forbidden Palace?"
"I heard that Zhu Jianying is an extraordinary person. It is difficult for people to distinguish whether he is good or evil. Xiao Ke has always been curious about how a mere mortal can do this. Today I finally understand. His body and soul are separated, his mind wanders in the ether, and he has been to the fairyland.
People in the Forbidden Palace are destined to be stupid all their lives. The reason for this is because when he came back, his three souls and seven souls were hardly complete, so he was naturally stupid."
"Is there any way to save my brother?"
"die."
"die?"
"Sometimes, for some people, death is a kind of relief. For example, some people have already died, but they still have to stay in this world, causing harm to others and themselves."
"It's better to die than to live..." Zhu Jiannan cared about this word more than anyone else. His body slightly bent, and he covered his mouth with his hand and kept coughing, "Some people are not afraid of death, but are afraid of death."
Too many things have not been done yet...”
"But some people let go and leave unfinished tasks to their descendants, such as Zhong Nanyan."
"Zhong Nanyan?" Zhu Jiannan took a breath. The Thunder Niu was neither moving nor static. "He does have an excellent disciple..."
"Don't you also have a malleable younger brother?"
"Yinnuo?"
"If one day you understand Zhu Yinuo, why does his name not contain the word "Jiang"? Have you never been curious?"
"Curious? Isao is more curious about Mr.'s origins."
‘It’s hard to say, but you will understand Xiao Ke’s origin one day.”
Zhu Jiannan's brows furrowed again. When he was confused, he suddenly remembered something related to confusion, which inevitably made him even more confused.
"Sir, I just said that the colorful crystal flower, Ying Ruge in the Muhan Tower, is a master of fire magic, and can summon a phoenix with fire to come and go freely..."
"You want to ask me if he is the person chosen by the Red Emperor? Xiao Ke never said that the colorful crystal flowers represent the immortals."
"Jiannan understands, sir, he won't tell."
"Everything in the world comes out of nothing and is connected in a chain. Sometimes it seems ordinary, but you don't know the truth that a single move can affect the whole body. It's time for Xiao Ke to go." The white horse that looked like a horse but not a horse appeared in the air again, and it was difficult to write.
His body floated up, then hovered in the air. He took out a small glass bottle from his sleeve, and the small bottle slowly floated towards Zhu Jiannan, "This is the ink used for calligraphy and painting. If you can see that fire master,
Just give him this ink."
"Give me this ink to Ying Ruge? Then why don't you give it to me personally?"
"Xiao Ke has made it clear that he is here today to repay the gift. Although Xiao Ke cannot interfere in mortal affairs, it is not a bad idea to occasionally change the order of events."
As soon as he finished speaking, before Zhu Jiannan could have any more questions, the white horse that looked like a horse but not a horse had already gone away.
Zhu Jiannan couldn't leave after looking at the book, and couldn't help but sigh to himself, how could he not know the origin of Xiao Yinuo's name? He thought that he had threatened Marquis Zhong Xi with what happened in the past, and now, a ruthless character came to remind him.
Did he do it too ruthlessly? He looked back at the attendant beside him and wondered why Xiao Lei looked to the southwest intentionally or unintentionally. What he saw was just a sycamore tree and a high wall.
Suddenly, the Xindu man said: "The five-colored crystal flowers do not refer to five people, let alone five immortal cultivators."
Zhu Jiannan opened his eyes wide, yes, why would he directly associate the legends of gods and ghosts with the immortal cultivators at that time?
High up in the sky where no one could see, a boy in a robe rode a green bull. When he saw Shu Nan, he rode up on a strange beast and saluted respectfully. He leaned behind Shu Nan and the two of them walked forward together. The boy asked
, this voice was indeed surprisingly unpleasant, and the contrast between appearance and voice was so great that it made the swordsman in black cry silently.
Just listen to this Taoist boy asking Shu Nan: "Isn't it disrupting the normal order of operations when the Immortal treats the Lord of the West City like this?"
Shu Nan smiled slightly and refused to go
Looking at the boy-like person, he joked: "Although the world created by the Heavenly Mother has many evil faces and is quite ugly, after all, after traveling in this world for thousands of years, it is natural that it must be true to its words. Since the little
Ke has already said that if he does not help the world, he will not interfere with the changes in the world. Similarly, Xiao Ke also said that if he can help Zhong Xihou, he will naturally help Zhong Xihou survive the disaster."
The Taoist boy thought for a while and asked: "What about the junior master?"
"Since he has been forced to stay in this world for hundreds of years, is he still short of time to let him see the ending of this younger generation?"
When the Taoist boy heard this, he couldn't help but lament.
Everyone in the world knows that gods are good, only children and grandchildren cannot forget them
Alas, only children and grandchildren cannot forget it.
As for the other person, Yan Xiao was sitting in front of a broken wooden table. On the table was a plate of green vegetables, a plate of pickled radish, a small plate of salt and a bowl of rice. On his left hand was a small jar of wine, which was still bitter.
The wine was sweet and sweet. Yan Xiao still ate slowly, chewing every mouthful of rice carefully, treating every meal as the last meal he would eat.
The meal was finished and the dishes were finished. Yan Xiao poured a bowl of wine, picked it up, paused for a while, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Master still eats simply and drinks wine alone." A pool of blood gathered on the ground, and the blood accumulated bit by bit, forming a human shape. Blood Phoenix stood behind Yan Xiao, this Yi
Shui Han's number one swordsman seemed to be respectful and obedient to the former brothel master.
"What's not good about these? Green vegetables and radishes moisten the intestines and nourish the stomach, and rice with fine salt refreshes the mind and increases strength."
"I'm not here to talk to you about this." Blood Phoenix unbuttoned his clothes. His skin was smooth and fair, and his body was also strong, with the flesh on his body standing out. His body was not clean, with criss-crossed
The scars include knife wounds, sword wounds, burns from fire, and burns from oil.
Yan Xiao's hand gently touched his chest. Such a scar must be very painful.
"He couldn't hold it back after all."
"The Immortal did go to Zhu Jiannan and told Zhu Jiannan about the Fifth Emperor's son."
"Did he notice something strange about your body?"
"Probably not. I left as soon as he came. I only looked at him in the dark."
"Put your clothes on, keep them exposed, be careful not to get petrified."
The blood phoenix tied its clothesline again, and when it stood in front of Yan Xiao, it would take off its mask. However, this blood phoenix still buried its face under the bamboo hat in front of Yan Xiao.
"There is one place you have never told me..."
"You already know much more than others know."
"I understand, but I do care about that place."
"The Forbidden Palace of Immortal Land······"
"yes."
"The Immortal Forbidden Palace is, to put it bluntly, your study in the mortal world. It contains bamboo slips that record all things in the world. Naturally, it also contains the four treasures of the study: pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
"Then whose study is this?"
"Emperor Fuxi."
"Fuxi, where is the Human Emperor now?"
Yan Xiao smiled and continued: "I can't match the level of the Human Emperor. I don't know if he has gone to the outer world. Or, like the Heavenly Mother, he has already merged with this world.
.”
"Actually, there is one thing I still don't understand. Marquis Zhong Xi and Ying Ruge, how do you bind these two people together?"
"Because between eleven and thirteen, there is twelve."
"I really envy this Twelve. Sooner or later, Zhong Xihou's sword will break. The Zhong Xihou with a broken sword will only be Zhong Xihou and not Hualuo Xicheng..."
"When the sword is broken, there will naturally be a new sword, as long as the person remains the same."
"It's time for me to go." Blood Phoenix's lower body began to turn into blood, but the blood transformation suddenly stopped, "I forgot to tell you, Daojun gave Zhu Jiannan a small bottle of ink..."
"This man really can't keep his temper."
"What it is?"
"This is not what you need, or the immortal has stayed in the mortal world for too long, which will inevitably offend the mortal nature. If the immortal can really reduce the killings, he is really a living Buddha. It is time to let Ruge do it.
It’s time to do something.”
Although Yan Xiao spoke with admiration, if Shu Nan really heard it, he would inevitably feel that Yan Xiao was scolding himself. Living Buddha? Not to mention Living Buddha, even if he is worthy of being a Taoist, it would be humiliating for Shu Nan.
"By the way, Master, hurry up, help me take this small crossbow and sell it." After saying that, Blood Phoenix drew a one-handed repeating light crossbow less than one foot out of thin air, "Zhu Jiannan has already asked me, is it
It’s not that I killed Ying Ruge’s men, you think, if you want Ying Ruge’s slender head to know that your senior brother killed his men, why don’t you fight with me?”
Yan Xiao laughed, threw away the repeating light crossbow, and said, "You brat, when did you steal it?"
"Stealing? Can this be called stealing? If a scholar wants to read a book very much and goes to borrow it, but the owner is not there, so he takes it away, can that be called stealing?"
"Go to Muhan Tower by yourself to admit your mistake."
Seeing that Yan Xiao was no longer paying attention to him, Blood Phoenix muttered a few curse words and then completely turned into blood and left.
Yan Xiao looked down at the floor tile where Blood Phoenix left, and couldn't help but smile. This brat had actually learned to curse.
