A knife in love

Chapter 402

Everyone stared at the stone in Situqiao's hand, they couldn't believe that it could have such a magical effect.Situ Qiao held the stone in his hand, played with it carefully for a long time, and said with a smile: "Baby, good baby! This thing is a rare treasure in the world, and it is priceless!"

Deng Yao saw that Situ Qiao had become greedy again, and said with a sneer, "I'm afraid that if you have the life to take the treasure, you won't have the blessing to enjoy it, and end up making a wedding dress for someone else."

Situ Qiao still stared at the stone in his hand, did not look back at Deng Yao, and said, "Old beggar, you don't have to worry about me. If someone wants to snatch this treasure, I would rather destroy it. We will never let it fall into the hands of others!"

Li Qiufeng saw that his hands were constantly rubbing the stone, his eyes seemed to burst into flames, and he thought to himself: "If we go on like this, when will we get out of this dangerous place?!" Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice: " If you don't find the passage to Jingxin Temple again, don't blame Li for destroying this treasure of yours!"

After he finished speaking, he slapped the scabbard with his right hand, and everyone saw only a flash of light from the saber, and then heard a "Zheng" sound after a moment, and looked at the stone held by Situ Qiao in both hands, it had already reached Li Qiufeng's left hand. among.And the Xiuchun knife in Li Qiufeng's hand has been retracted into the scabbard at some point.

Situ Qiao's face changed drastically, and he pointed at Li Qiufeng and said, "You, you give me back the Haotian Mirror!"

He took a step forward as he spoke, and he was already in front of Li Qiufeng, his hands spread out, as if he was about to step forward to snatch it.It's just that his hands just raised up, but they suddenly froze.

Because the Xiuchun knife in Li Qiufeng's hand had reached his throat silently.

The gloomy blade supported Situ Qiao's chin, cutting off a strand of his beard.Situ Qiao didn't dare to move, but kept his eyes fixed on the stone that Li Qiufeng was holding in his left hand, and said in a trembling voice, "If you kill me, no one can escape from here..."

Li Qiufeng sneered and said, "Whether we can escape or not is not important to you, but if you die, it is very important to you. Is Li right?"

Situ Qiao said tremblingly, "Yes..."

With the flash of the saber, the chill under Situ Qiao's chin suddenly disappeared.He took two steps back in fright, and involuntarily raised his right hand to touch his neck.Looking at Li Qiufeng again, the Xiuchun knife in his hand has been put back into its sheath, he lifted up the stone with his left hand, and said to Situ Qiao: "If you continue to indulge in this stone and have no intention of finding a way, I will throw it away. Entering the abyss, cutting off your thoughts..."

Before Li Qiufeng finished speaking, Situ Qiao's expression changed drastically, and he said in a trembling voice, "Don't! This, this is a unparalleled treasure in the world, you can't, you can't destroy it..."

Li Qiufeng said calmly: "This thing is a treasure to you, but it is just a stone to Li. Li can throw it away and smash it if he wants to. But whether this thing can still exist in the world depends on you. Mr. Situ will not listen."

Situ Qiao couldn't help swallowing saliva, his face was extremely tense, and he said after a while: "Okay, okay, I'll do what you say. You have to keep your word and don't ruin it..."

Li Qiufeng said: "Put this stone back to its original place first, if you dare to make trouble, I promise you will never see this stone again."

Situ Qiao was shocked for a while, and said to Li Qiufeng: "Do you think this is an ordinary stone? Let me tell you, this is the Haotian Mirror made by Yuan Tiangang. It can illuminate demons and ghosts. It is the most precious treasure in the world..."

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Li Qiufeng said in a deep voice, "Lead the way!"

Situ Qiao didn't dare to say any more, he looked at the stone in Li Qiufeng's hand reluctantly, the corner of his mouth twitched a few times, he wanted to speak but couldn't.Li Qiufeng held the stone and said to Situ Qiao: "Put this stone back to its original place. After we find Jingxin Temple and turn around, you can take this stone with you."

Situ Qiao had no choice but to agree, and led Li Qiufeng into the darkness.Li Qiufeng handed the stone to Situ Qiao, holding the torch in his left hand, watching him carefully put the stone back to its original place.

After the stone was put back to its original place, the stone suddenly appeared in front of everyone again.Murong Danyan's eyes widened, and he said in a trembling voice, "It's really that stone that's playing tricks!"

Li Qiufeng watched Situ Qiao's every move closely, and was relieved to see that he hadn't done anything wrong.Hearing what Murong Danyan said, he didn't look back.It wasn't until Situ Qiao stood up and walked back to the side of the crowd with three steps, that he came out from the dark.It's just that when he walked past the gate of the temple carved out of bluestone, he couldn't help but stop and look down.At this time, his position happened to be between the gate of Qingshi Temple and that stone.

At this moment, the audience let out several exclamations of "噫".Li Qiufeng was startled, and turned his head to look, but he was also startled.I saw a huge figure suddenly appeared above the temple gate in front of everyone.This person was dressed in gray clothes, held a torch in his left hand, and held the Xiuchun knife tightly in his right hand. It was Li Qiufeng himself.

Murong Danyan said in surprise: "Brother Li, why have you become an illusion?"

Situ Qiao snorted and said, "This is the power of the Haotian Mirror. It was originally a piece of uncut jade found by a jade craftsman in Zhongnan Mountain in the late Sui Dynasty. A strange thing about jade. The surface of this thing is smooth, but the back is extremely rough, which is different from everything in the world. After the jade worker cut open the jade stone, he was very disappointed at first, thinking it was a piece of waste. But the stone is extremely hard. It can't be entered, burned and never destroyed. Knowing that something is different, he didn't throw it away. Later, during the war, this stone fell into the hands of the great magician Yuan Tiangang. After Yuan Tiangang got this stone, he named it as if he had found a treasure. Haotian mirror. It is said that he used the Haotian mirror to drive ghosts and gods to work for him. He killed five ghosts in Luoyang and subdued the god of plague in Nanyang. This Haotian mirror was dedicated to Li Shimin. According to old legend, Yuan Tiangang once told Li Shimin that this stone is not a common thing in the world, but comes from the secret realm of Haotian, and it can reflect the ghosts and gods in the world, so it is called the Haotian mirror."

Seeing that Situ Qiao began to speak at length again, and the content was absurd, even though they were upset, they could only listen to him patiently, but most of them frowned.

I just heard Situ Qiao say: "It is said that later Li Shimin wanted to get rid of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and seize the crown prince. He used this Haotian mirror to predict good and bad luck beforehand. Li Shimin saw the success or failure of the matter from the Haotian mirror. I ambushed Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji at the Xuanwu Gate, killed their brothers and seized the throne. Before Wu Zetian entered the palace, Li Shimin had already used the Haotian mirror to calculate that there were people who would harm Li's descendants lurking in the palace. But Hao Tianjing couldn't see the person's face, so in desperation, he recruited Yuan Tiangang, who was wandering outside, into the palace. Yuan Tiangang drove Haotianjing with great magic power, trying to find out who that person was. After a lot of tossing, only eight words came out: Three generations later, Li Tang was the Wu Dynasty. Li Shimin was frightened and sent his confidantes to inquire around the palace and court officials. At that time, the general Li Junxian had many military exploits , but in a banquet hosted by Li Shimin for the hero, he was a little drunk, and his nickname was Wu Niang. Li Shimin immediately felt jealous, worried that this person was the one who harmed Li's descendants. ', actually found an excuse to kill him. It's a pity that a generation of famous generals lost their lives in vain.

"Later Li Shimin fell seriously ill, and became more and more worried that someone would usurp the world of Li Shimin, and even wanted to kill all the people surnamed Wu in the palace. Yuan Tiangang was shocked when he heard about this, and hurried into the palace to ask Li Shimin to see him. Yan said, that person has become a climate in the palace, and the way of heaven is irreversible. Judging from the hexagram image of Haotian Mirror, although the descendants of His Majesty were slaughtered by this person, there are still many successors in the Tang Dynasty, and they will not be overthrown. At the time of the big event, he was already an old man of five or sixty years old. Maybe he would be old and have kind thoughts in his heart, so as not to slaughter all the descendants of the Li family. If all the people with the surname Wu in the palace were killed now, one would kill them all. If it is too heavy, it will hurt Yin. Second, once this person is eliminated, there will be more powerful people who will harm His Majesty's descendants. At that time, even the Great Tang Dynasty will not be able to be preserved.

"After listening to Yuan Tiangang's persuasion, Li Shimin had no choice but to let go of the idea of ​​killing people, and gave the Haotian Mirror to Yuan Tiangang, hoping that if the descendants of Li's family were in danger in the future, he would come to rescue him with the Haotian Mirror. The following things Everyone knows that Wu Zetian usurped the Tang Dynasty and killed all the descendants of the Li family. Even the son born to her and Gaozong refused to let go. It is said that when Wu Zetian took control of the government, he sent extremely powerful killers to hunt down Yuan Tiangang, none of these killers came back. Later, when she knew that Yuan Tiangang had died of illness, she sent someone to dig Yuan Tiangang's grave, but it ended in vain. There are rumors in the world that among the killers sent by Wu Zetian, there was indeed There is an extremely powerful magician. This person took the ancient magic weapon "Sky Breaking Cone" bestowed on him by Wu Zetian, and cracked all of Yuan Tiangang's magical weapons, almost driving Yuan Tiangang into a desperate situation. In the end, he used all his strength to strike , Yuan Tiangang had no way to avoid it, so he used the Haotian mirror to hard-block the sky-shattering awl for a fatal week. After the two treasures collided, the sky-shattering awl broke inch by inch and turned into dust. The magician vomited blood and fell to the ground immediately. .Although Yuan Tiangang escaped with a life, the aura of Haotian Mirror has also lost seven out of ten, and lost the power to drive ghosts and gods. However, it still has aura, and can use light to transform tiny things into giant images."

At this point, Situ Qiao reluctantly turned his head to look in the direction of the Haotian mirror, sighed, and then said: "To tell you the truth, I went to Yuan Tiangang's grave for this Haotian mirror, but I found nothing. He said that he was almost trapped in the tomb, and escaped by luck. Unexpectedly, this treasure under heaven actually fell into the hands of Yao Guangxiao, and was used by it to set up a killing mechanism."

Everyone thought in their hearts: "This person is despicable and shameless for his own self-interest. He is still a strange person who can live to this day. It is not because he wants to learn the art of organ information as he said. Mostly it is to avoid the pursuit of the enemy family, and to use the power of the Hua family to protect themselves."

At this time Li Qiufeng had returned to the crowd, and his shadow disappeared from the temple gate.Seeing the situation just now, Liu Yong was horrified. He took a deep breath and calmed down a little. Then he said to Situ Qiao: "Mr. Situ, what should we do next?"

Situ Qiao said: "Life and death are relative, misfortune and good fortune are interdependent. Since this temple gate is a dead end, then the life must be near it. I have checked the left side of the temple gate just now, except for the Haotian Mirror and the small stone gate. , there is nothing unusual. Therefore, the way of life must be on the right, we only need to search carefully."

After Situ Qiao finished speaking, everyone looked to the right side of the temple gate in unison.The far right of the temple gate is the empty gate, and to the right of the empty gate is a mass of darkness.

Holding the torch, Situ Qiao walked slowly to the far right of the temple gate.The originally pitch-black darkness was illuminated by his torch, but what appeared was a strange rocky wall.Situ Qiao paced slowly in front of the stone wall, muttering words, walking back and forth four or five times.Liu Yong and others wanted to step forward to help him search several times, but he waved his hand without looking back, motioning everyone to back off.After touching half a stick of incense, Situ Qiao suddenly stopped, stretched out his right hand, pressed an ordinary recess on the stone wall, and pushed forward forcefully.Hearing the sound of "click", a big hole suddenly appeared at the foot of Situ Bridge. He exclaimed, and his body fell into the hole, and he disappeared suddenly.
