soul shifting

Chapter 17

The dinner party last night was too late, except for a few who had to go back in a hurry, most disciples of the Promise Sect decided to catch up on sleep in the morning and leave Xuanmiao Pavilion in the afternoon.

Jueming fell asleep as soon as his head touched the pillow, with the quilt uncovered, and slept like a corpse for less than a quarter of an hour, when he suddenly heard a faint knock on the door.

"Is someone knocking on the door? Or am I dreaming..." Jue Ming thought in a daze.

Bang bang bang!

The knocking on the door got louder.

"Who do you rely on..." Jue Ming got up reluctantly, and opened the door angrily, "...Elder Shen! Why are you here?" He immediately changed his respectful expression.

"Hahaha, you haven't woken up yet?" Elder Shen laughed.

"No, I'm already up, and I'm about to wash my face!" Jueming opened his eyes and said nonsense, picked up a wet towel and wiped his face carelessly: "Sit down, Elder Shen, I'll pour you a cup of tea."

"Okay." Elder Shen sat down by the table, and put a black wooden box on the table: "Amin, I heard from Xiao An that you practiced hard, and now you have the ability to walk through Yang with a hundred steps."

Jueming was stunned for a moment before realizing that "Xiao'an" refers to Hall Master Shen, and he thought that this title is really disgusting for an old man: "I don't dare to spread a hundred steps, the best archery in the whole Huoyun Villa is still Affordable."

"Haha, how immodest." Elder Shen laughed at him: "Come and see what this is?" The elder patted the black wooden box on the table.

"This...could it be..." Jueming opened the wooden box, his eyes lit up, and he cheered excitedly: "Su Ming Bow! Is it for me? Is it for me?"

"Well, it's for you." Elder Shen rubbed Cassia Ming's hair: "I promised you before, but this elder will keep his word."

"Thank you, Elder Shen!" Jueming laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth.

The bow arm of the Su Ming bow is neither stone nor wood, and when you hold it tightly, you can feel a touch of warmth in your palm; the bowstring is bright, tight and elastic, and you can feel the tremendous power contained in it just by looking at it.

There were two rapid knocks on the door, and the door was pushed open with a palm.

"Jaeming, look at this quickly! Martial Uncle He's masterpiece!" Han Xiuyu waved a few pieces of yellow paper, and stopped in embarrassment in the middle of the dance, staring at Elder Shen at the table with rounded eyes: "...Elder Shen...Good morning."

"Morning, Xiu Yu, what do you want to show A Ming?"

Shen An also entered the room, Han Xiuyu looked at him and gave him a wink.

- Can you tell Elder Shen about this?He wouldn't be one of those black-clothed assassins, would he?

- absolutely not.I have known Elder Shen for more than 20 years. He couldn't bear to beat a mouse to death even if it entered the house. He couldn't be a cold-blooded and heartless person.

- so i told him

- well, go ahead.

The two of them winked for a while with a set of secret signals that others looked at in the clouds but thought they were clear at a glance, and finally reached a consensus.

Han Xiuyu took a step forward and put the piece of paper on the table: "This is the last letter left by my uncle, He Jie of Xuanhongzong. Jue Ming and I were disciples of Xuanhongzong before we entered Wuji Sect. It is said that Xuan Hongzong died because of an accidental fire. In fact, the truth is not true. Xuan Hongzong was secretly exterminated by two murderers wearing silver-rimmed black veil cloaks. Later we learned that the two black-clothed murderers , it is from the Promise Sect."

Elder Shen was taken aback, but did not interrupt him.Han Xiuyu continued: "In the middle of the dinner yesterday, Uncle Shen and I went out to let the wind go, and saw a man wearing a black cloak suddenly appear from the ground on the shore of the North Lake. We went to check and found a secret room built at the bottom of the lake. This uncle's last letter was found in the secret room."

Elder Shen looked at Shen An, and Shen An nodded: "What Xiaoyu said is true. Elder, please read this letter, Master Zeng... may be a big devil who hides his identity, Zeng Sixi should be a pseudonym."

Elder Shen picked up the few small pieces of paper and looked at them, his brows furrowed tighter the more he looked at them.

August 25

Today is the birthday of Zeng Sixi, the leader of the Wuji Sect. Xuanmiao Pavilion held a big birthday banquet, and I was honored to be invited to attend. Broaden the internal strength of the meridians of the eyes, the eyesight is different from that of ordinary people, and the bones can be seen clearly through the flesh).

After the dinner, I talked about this matter with Teacher Zeng, and asked him what kind of weapon left such a strange bone injury, but he insisted that I was wrong, but I knew very well in my heart that my eyes would never will go wrong.

August 26

Last night, Master Zeng invited me to visit the lake to enjoy the moon. I went to Yushen Lake around midnight, but I didn't see him.I waited for a while, and suddenly I felt a pain in the back of my head and was knocked out.I was woken up early this morning by Master Zeng pouring a basin of boiling water. The pain almost made me go crazy on the spot.

I was taken into a secret room at the bottom of the lake. The roof was made of a huge piece of transparent white glass, and many bright net fish were tied to it, so the secret room was probably built at the bottom of Yushen Lake.

Master Zeng asked me who my eye skills were taught by, and I said that I learned it myself from an ancient Sanskrit scroll called "Wisdom Eye Sutra". He then asked me if anyone else practiced this skill. Tell him that as far as I know, I am the only one who has achieved this skill.In the end, he asked me where the "Huiyan Sutra" was, but I didn't tell him. I thought he was harboring evil intentions, and I couldn't bring trouble to Xuan Hongzong.

Master Zeng left the secret room, followed by a group of masked men in black veil cloaks, carrying various instruments of torture.

August 27

The masked men tortured me and forced me to reveal the location of the "Huiyan Sutra".I was sometimes awake and sometimes unconscious. They blinded my left eye with a branding iron, and pulled out all ten fingernails.

August 28

Those people continue to torture me...

August, or already September, I am tortured by them day and night, I can no longer tell the time

Master Zeng told me that his subordinates found the small characters "Xuanhongzong" embroidered with black thread on the side of my luggage, and now he has sent people to Xuanhongzong of Fanjing Peak to check whether the "Huiyan Sutra" is stored there .If not, he will continue to send people to the homes of all my relatives and friends until he finds it.I thought, when he found it, the time for my death would have come.

a certain day in september

The masked man found the "Huiyan Sutra", and Master Zeng set it on fire.

I thought he was looking for the "Huiyan Sutra" to keep it as his own and practice it himself, but now I understand that he doesn't want anyone else to practice Wisdom Eye Kungfu.He didn't want anyone to discover the five-petal plum blossom dent on his left shoulder lute!

I don't know the origin of this injury, but since he is so afraid, this injury must be of great importance.Or hide his dark secrets, or...can make people recognize his identity.

Zeng Sixi's experience before founding the Promise Sect has always been a mystery in the world. Perhaps, the true identity of the leader of the world's largest sect is a certain evil leader who was once full of evil?

The masked men are here, and they are going to kill me, who unfortunately discovered the secret of the leader...

The last line was very scribbled, with a long bloodstain at the end.Elder Shen frowned, and said to himself, "The five-petaled plum blossom...could it be him?"

"Who is it?" Shen An hurriedly asked: "Elder, do you know the origin of the injury of the leader?"

Elder Shen nodded: "More than 20 years ago, there was a young devil named Luo Yuxuan who brutally murdered him. Once, the heads of various factions joined forces to encircle and suppress him, but in the end he was allowed to escape. Injured his left shoulder lute."

"Zeng Sixi..." Elder Shen read in a low voice: "Zeng, Sixi... Luo... Zeng Luo, Zeng surnamed Luo..." Elder Shen sneered twice: "Is it really Luo Yuxuan?"

Sen Han's hostility slowly oozes out from this familiar yet unfamiliar name, making Shen Chengquan recall the heinous young devil many years ago again.

——Thirty-five years ago, the Wuji Sect had not yet been established, and the leader of the hundred sects in the Jianghu was the Xianyunmen in Lanxi.

Li Songyuan, the head of the Xianyun Sect, is a respected old senior. He has three characteristics that are widely circulated in the world: extremely high cultivation base, excellent character, and extremely sharp vision.How bad is his vision?In the ten years since he was the head of Xianyun Sect, he has never received a single direct disciple.There are countless people in the world who come to Xianyunmen to learn art because of his first two characteristics, but none of them has the qualifications that can meet Li Songyuan's requirements.

In the early spring of this year, an earth-shattering news suddenly came out in the Jianghu: Li Songyuan accepted closed disciples, and he accepted two at once!

Both of these two disciples have excellent aptitudes that are rare in a century, and the younger one among them is Luo Yuxuan.At that time, he was still a cheerful boy, handsome and lively, very likable, no one thought that the name Luo Yuxuan would become a frightening existence in the future.

Five years later, for some unknown reason, Li Songyuan expelled Luo Yuxuan from the Xianyun Sect. Since then, he has never heard from him, as if the world has evaporated.Five years later, an imposing young man suddenly came to Lanxi's "Taosha Plaza".

"Taosha Square" is a place where Jianghu sects in Suzhou and Hangzhou attract disciples. For various reasons, disciples who do not want to stay in the original sect can recommend themselves to the seniors of other sects here and join other sects as disciples.

The young man came late. At that time, hundreds of celebrities and knights had already gathered in the square. He jumped onto the high platform and channeled his inner strength into his voice so that everyone present could hear him clearly: "Everyone present, today Those who join my ranks will not die."

There was no beginning or end to what he said, no one spoke for a while, and the whole square was silent.After a while, a man asked loudly: "Join your command? Which faction do you belong to?"

The young man said: "The faction has not yet been established."

There was a burst of laughter in the square, and the person who asked the question laughed the loudest: "You don't even have a sect, and you dare to talk big? Do you want one person to kill so many of us? You really treat yourself like an onion!"

The young man sat on the high platform and waited from noon until the sun was westward, but there was not a single one who surrendered.

That night, a horrific thing happened: all the people who had been to Taosha Square during the day disappeared at home, without any signs of struggle or escape, as if they had disappeared out of thin air.Their family members searched everywhere, and spent three days anxiously. On the fourth morning, the bodies of those people returned to their respective rooms without anyone noticing, and there was still no trace left behind when they disappeared. It is not at all known who sent them back and when.

Those corpses were so miserable that it was hard to look directly at them. Many family members fainted from fright when they saw them, and some were directly frightened crazy.

People later found out that the boy who appeared in Taosha Square that day was Luo Yuxuan who was expelled from Xianyunmen back then.From the first attack in Taosha Square, Luo Yuxuan built the "Soul Refining Hall" and recruited subordinates everywhere. Anyone who dared to refuse would be found and killed by him no matter where he hid.At that time, the rivers and lakes were like a Shura hell, people died every day, and the air was filled with the smell of blood that seemed to never end.

Not only did Luo Yuxuan do all kinds of evil in the martial arts world, but he also allowed his subordinates to rape, rape and plunder, wantonly bullying the common people.He has weird and dirty thoughts about children. Countless children were captured by his subordinates to satisfy his disgusting desires. After being insulted and tortured to death, they were thrown directly into the small lake behind the Soul Refining Hall. The originally clear and transparent lake surface was quickly stained grayish white by the silted corpse oil.

Two years later, someone heard that Luo Yuxuan was defeated by a mysterious knight "Ice Hero" and was imprisoned deep in the mountains.At the beginning, no one in the arena dared to believe it, but then he and his henchmen did not appear again, and everyone gradually believed it.

"My first wife died at his hands." Elder Shen said in a low voice, "I didn't expect him to come back after so many years..."

Elder Shen pursed his lips, and said to himself: "We can't give him another chance to do evil!" Then he took He Jie's last letter and walked quickly to the lobby of Xuanmiao Pavilion, with a look of "I want revenge" expression, Shen An, Han Xiuyu and Cassia hurriedly followed.

In the lobby, the disciples who had not yet left gathered together.

"Elder Shen, you said that you have something important to announce in front of the whole church." On the bench on the high platform, Master Zeng leaned on his back, with his black curly hair loosely scattered: "Now that everyone is here, you can talk about it." Bar."

Elder Shen took a step forward: "I want to announce the true identity of Master Zeng."

"Oh?" Zeng Sixi licked her lower lip playfully.

Elder Shen pointed at him: "Your name is not Zeng Sixi, your real name is Luo Yuxuan!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then quickly exploded.Amid all the chatter and chatter, Shen An looked at Master Zeng's expression, he couldn't see any nervousness or surprise, and was inexplicably worried.

Elder Shen raised his voice and briefly described the ins and outs of the incident. Everyone discussed, some doubted the truth, and some glared at Zeng Sixi.

"Elder Shen," Zeng Sixi said softly.As soon as he spoke, the crowd gradually became quiet: "In other words, your so-called evidence is only He Jie's blood book in your hand." He tapped a few pages of paper in Elder Shen's hand with his chin: "There are also these Three witnesses," he pointed at Shen An, Han Xiuyu and Jue Ming: "What kind of evidence is this? Blood books can be forged, and witnesses can also lie. I am not Luo Yuxuan, and there is no five-petal plum blossom injury on the lute bone." You said that I sent people to kill Xuan Hongzong and robbed their "Huiyan Sutra", so can you find this book in my Xuanmiao Pavilion?"

Elder Shen was angry: "You have already burned that book, where can I find it!"

"You said that these two young disciples belonged to Xuan Hongzong and saw my subordinates destroy the sect with your own eyes, not to mention whether what they said was true or not." Zeng Sixi turned to Han Xiuyu and Jue Ming: "How do you prove that you are Produced by Xuan Hongzong? Show off Xuan Hongzong's unique secret technique for everyone to see?"

Han Xiuyu and Jue Ming stood still.

Damn Xuan Hongzong has no unique secret skills at all!

Zeng Sixi turned to Shen An again: "As for Master Shen, what evidence can you produce to prove that I have such a group of murderous assassins in black?"

Shen An gritted her teeth and was speechless.

Zeng Sixi sneered twice: "There is no evidence, just talking nonsense, do you know what consequences this will have in Wuji Church?"

In the hall where needles can be heard, suddenly a clear voice said: "Master, I have a way to prove whether what Elder Shen and the others are telling is the truth or a lie."

Shen An looked back and saw that it was Yao Bingqing.

"What method?" Zeng Sixi asked.

"I have practiced medicine for many years, although my medical skills are not very good, but I still have a little bit of bone-feeling skills." Yao Bingqing said: "Let me know if there is a five-petal plum blossom injury on the lute bone on the left shoulder of the leader."
