The light of the sword is like the moon reflecting on Kyushu

It is said that there has been only one road to Mount Huashan since ancient times. How could such a huge Mount Huashan have only one road to the top of the mountain?

The so-called one road simply means that among all the roads going up the mountain, there is only one relatively flat one suitable for reaching the summit!

As for the rest of the roads, they are either dangerous or full of obstacles, making it very difficult to reach the top. Some roads can even not be called roads at all!

Can a temporary path made by a few nimble men be considered a road? Of course not! Except for a few of them who can come and go freely, the rest of the people can't go up or down at all. It can be said that it is difficult to move forward. How can such a road be considered a road?

The Shu Mountain before us can be said to be "one road since ancient times"!
Because other roads leading into the mountain are either steep cliffs or covered with thorns, only this road can be called a smooth road! One level after another of stone steps, spiraling along the mountain to the top of the mountain!
Unlike other sects, the Shushan Sect is actually open.

Behind the memorial archway is the territory of Shushan Sect, but visitors are not prohibited from entering. From time to time, I met tourists walking in groups. After walking for a while, the fog in the mountains became thicker and thicker, as if entering a fairyland.

Pang Shiwu said, "Brother, how come these people came into the mountain so easily? Didn't we just say that it is easy to defend but difficult to attack? If a hostile force sneaks in, how can the Shushan Sect defend itself?"

Liu Miezhou said: "The Shushan Sect's territory is very large. The places that ordinary people can see are definitely places that they don't mind. Outsiders can't enter the real core area. It is said that Shushan has twelve peaks, known as the twelve sword sects, and each sect is full of talents."

Pang Shiwu sneered, "There are so many talented people? You sit back and watch the Demon Cult grow stronger, and you even call yourself a chivalrous man. You are so shameless!"

Passersby on the road looked at them sideways.

Pang Shiwu acted as if no one was around and cursed the Shushan Sect as he walked!

An old man not far from him couldn't stand it anymore and frowned, "Young man, are you from another place?"

Pang Shiwu didn't expect that the old man would actually ask him, so he said frankly, "That's right!"

The old man was about 70 years old, and there were two young men supporting him, probably younger generations in the family.

The old man said: "From your tone, it seems that you are very dissatisfied with the Shushan Sect!"

Pang Shiwu raised his eyebrows, "Of course!"

"Have you been to Shushan before?"

"no!"

"Have the disciples of Shushan ever offended you?"

"nor!"

"Where does this resentment come from, little brother?"

Pang Shiwu was startled. "Resentment?"

The old man said, "You have been complaining all the way, and your resentment is overwhelming. Don't you know it?"

Pang Shiwu suddenly felt insulted, and laughed in anger, "You said I was full of complaints? They are worthy of that? I just said a few fair words, how can it be considered a complaint?"

Without waiting for the old man to speak, Liu Miezhou asked, "Are you from the Shushan Sect?"

The old man shook his head, "No!"

Liu Miezhou said coldly: "Then why do you mind your own business?"

The old man said, "I'm not meddling in other people's business. The reason we travel is to have fun. You, my little brother, kept cursing along the way, and it really annoyed me!"

Pang Shiwu looked at the old man in disbelief!

In broad daylight, the road is wide and everyone should walk on their own side!
I'm just speaking my mind, how did that offend you?

Liu Miezhou said, "We walked all the way from the bottom of the mountain to here before we met you. And judging from our speed, we will soon surpass you, so our words will not affect you at all. If we affect you just because we just brushed past each other, then we apologize!" He clasped his fists and saluted, then said to Pang Shiwu, "Let's go!"

Pang Shiwu didn't expect Liu Miezhou to do such a thing. Although he was unhappy, he couldn't disobey him. After all, Liu Miezhou was also his elder brother! He responded and turned around to continue walking.

Unexpectedly, the old man seemed to be offended, his face changed, and he scolded: "What's your attitude?"

Pang Shiwu frowned, turned around suddenly, and asked coldly: "What do you want?"

The old man suddenly saw a cold light flashing in the black-clothed boy's eyes, like a ferocious tiger out of a cage, waiting for an opportunity to bite someone!

The old man was so frightened that he trembled all over and dared not speak!
The two young men beside him were also intimidated by Pang Shiwu's aura and almost peed their pants with fright!

They had never seen anyone with such a terrifying aura!
At that moment, a suffocating feeling of oppression instantly came over them, making it difficult for the two to breathe!

Pang Shiwu said: "Take good care of your old man, otherwise he will die without knowing how!"

Just now he clearly felt that Liu Miezhou had already made up his mind to kill!
He knew that Liu Miezhou had been in a bad mood recently and his emotions were fluctuating greatly, so he might have wanted to kill the old man to vent his anger!
Although Pang Shiwu hated the old man, the old man's crime was not punishable by death. If he killed someone over a disagreement, what was the difference between him and the demon from the cult? He couldn't do it himself, nor could he let Brother Liu do it! One misstep would lead to eternal regret! He must not be impulsive! So he turned back and "intimidate" the three old men first! Otherwise, the three men would not know what was good for them and would continue to speak nonsense, and Liu Miezhou would definitely shoot them to death with an arrow! Pang Shiwu now understood why Liu Miezhou apologized to the old man just now! Suppress first and then praise! Be polite before using force! Don't say I didn't warn you! I've given you a chance, you'd better seize it! If Pang Shiwu hadn't stopped him in time, the old man would have said something unpleasant 100%! Liu Miezhou would have killed him 100%! The surging murderous aura just now was not an illusion!

After Feng Jiuxiao and his group walked away, the old man let out a long sigh of relief, "Who are these people? Why are they so arrogant?"

The two young men beside him were pale as death and no one said a word!
The old man scolded, "What? Are you scared? Speak!"

He didn't know that the two young men had actually seen a strange and terrifying scene in the eyes of the young man in black!
In the boundless wilderness, an extremely huge tiger was wandering leisurely. Suddenly, the tiger looked back and seemed to see itself!

The huge and ferocious eyes exude a strong breath of death!

At that moment, they thought that it was not an illusion, but the real world!
The tiger would rush to him at any time, and with a light slap of its huge claws, he would be beaten into meat paste; with a single open of its huge mouth, he would be swallowed!

The two of them didn't come back to their senses for a long time.

Seeing that the two were in a state of despair, the old man asked for the fourth time, and then they woke up as if from a dream, "Ah? Master, what did you say?"

The old man was so angry that he slapped him!
Snapped!
As if he was not satisfied, he slapped another young man in the face!

Snapped!
The sound was very crisp, and Feng Jiuxiao and others in the front naturally heard it.

Unfortunately, this has nothing to do with me! After walking for a while, the sun has begun to move towards the west.

At this time, everyone was getting closer and closer to the top of the mountain and farther and farther away from the ground!

The mountain wind is as cold as a knife.

Pang Shiwu asked La Jiao: "Is it cold?"

La Jiao smiled and said, "I've prepared in advance. I have a cowhide vest on, so I'm not cold. You have a conscience." She smiled happily. At least this idiot knows to take the initiative to care about herself!

Although the mountain wind is cold, Chili's heart is warm.

The mountains became steeper and steeper, and there were fewer and fewer people walking on the road.

Zeng Yong helped Er Ni climb up the stone steps. "No wonder there are fewer and fewer tourists. The higher you go, the harder it is to walk. It's easy to fall if you're not careful."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "This kind of terrain is most suitable for defense."

Liu Miezhou's eyes suddenly lit up, "It really is a good place! One man guarding the pass can stop ten thousand men!"

Feng Jiuxiao's heart moved, and he couldn't help but sigh inwardly: It seems that he is determined to cause trouble. He must have been studying military tactics these days, otherwise he wouldn't be so concerned about this terrain.

When they reached the mountainside, they saw thick clouds all around, like a fairyland.

There is a fork in the road ahead. According to the signs, the left side leads to the six peaks of Wangxia, Cuiping, Chaoyun, Songluan, Jixian and Juhe, and the right side leads to the six peaks of Jingtan, Shengsheng, Qiyun, Feifeng, Denglong and Shengquan.

Liu Miezhou said: "It is said that the leader is at Denglong Peak."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Fortunately, Brother Liu is familiar with it, otherwise it would take at least ten days to search peak by peak to find their lair!"

He had a preconceived notion that the Demon Lord had occupied the furnace of the Shushan Sect Leader, so he had already assumed that this place had been assimilated by the Demon Cult. This was the Demon Cult's latest habitat!

A group of nine people headed towards the right fork in the road.

************************************************** ******************************************
The palace of Prince Jin of the Song Dynasty is under tight security.

Zhao Guangyi put his hands behind his back and looked out the window. "I should go to the palace to report tomorrow."

The eunuch Li Gonggong behind him said, "Your Highness just entered the city today. Logically, the Emperor should let Your Highness rest for a few more days. Why did he summon you to the palace tomorrow?"

Zhao Guangyi asked, "What do you think?"

Eunuch Li sighed, Prince Jin is digging holes every day!

He said stiffly, "I guess the emperor missed your Highness, so he was anxious to meet your Highness."

Zhao Guangyi said coldly: "Bullshit! He kept sending the Imperial City Bureau to monitor my progress on the way back. At first I thought he was concerned about me!"

Eunuch Li pretended to be surprised, "Isn't it?"

Zhao Guangyi snorted coldly, "He is concerned about that Lady Huarui!"

"Impossible? Your Majesty is a man of great talent, how could he..." Eunuch Li suddenly felt something was wrong and swallowed the second half of his sentence! According to him, Zhao Kuangyin was a hero, so he looked down on Hua Rui. According to him, the Prince of Jin was not a hero! Because heroes would look down on Madam Hua Rui!

Zhao Guangyi said: "Brother has always been quick to repay kindness and revenge, and has a clear distinction between love and hate. He is not a eunuch, so isn't it normal for him to like women?"

Eunuch Li looked embarrassed.

Prince Jin is scolding the eunuchs in front of them!

Eunuch Li pretended to be nonchalant, "Yes, all under heaven are subjects of the emperor. It is only natural for the emperor to take any woman he likes as his concubine!"

Zhao Guangyi said, "It's fine if you like her! But you have to be fair, right? He clearly knew that the flower was already in my cage, but he insisted on snatching it from me. Don't you think that's too much?"

Eunuch Li lowered his eyebrows and said, "Since Your Highness has already decided to act, why is he still reluctant to give up a woman? In my opinion, if you present the flower bud to the emperor, the emperor will surely be happy and may even reward Your Highness! Isn't this a good time to paralyze the emperor?"

Zhao Guangyi said: "Give it to him? I'm a little reluctant to do so!"

Eunuch Li said: "Your Highness should learn from Liu Bang now! Liu Bang first entered Xianyang, so he should be crowned king first. The other princes all knew this. But why did Liu Bang respectfully offer Xianyang to Xiang Yu? Because his strength did not allow it, and his motor was not mature enough!"

Zhao Guangyi turned around and looked at Eunuch Li and said, "Well, I didn't expect you to have something on your mind."

Eunuch Li smiled charmingly and said, "It's all thanks to your Highness!"

Zhao Guangyi's eyes flickered as he said, "I will enter the palace tonight."

Eunuch Li was a little surprised. "Action today?"

Zhao Guangyi's eyes flickered, "This should be done as soon as possible! The longer the night, the more trouble there is!"

Eunuch Li said, "Your Highness, forgive me for asking, are you fully prepared?"

Zhao Guangyi's eyes flickered, "Everything is ready, only the east wind is missing."

Eunuch Li said: "This east wind is..."

Zhao Guangyi said: "It's a woman!"

"War for a woman? Wouldn't this affect your image?"

"What image do I want to affect? ​​I just want everyone to think that I am a pervert, so that the Khitan and Tubo people will think that I am not worth worrying about. This is my goal!" (End of this chapter)
