The Jianghu of Sword and Dao

Chapter 5 The Meeting of Changbai
When everyone found out that the two people sitting in front of them were Li Hanye and Wang Musheng, the color of the world turned pale, and they were speechless for a moment.

"Are you really Li Hanye from the Shenjian Sect? I don't intend to offend you!" The attitude of the man arguing with Li Hanye has changed dramatically.

"You don't need to be so alarmed, brother, since you are not a member of the Jianghu, naturally you are not bound by the rules of the Jianghu.

Besides, it's not enough to apologize to us just because of a verbal dispute, and he won't bother with you, Han Ye, what do you think? "

The meaning of Wang Musheng's words was to deliberately give that person a step down, but Li Hanye still seemed to show an expression of indifference.

"Why, I won't kill him indiscriminately. Besides, he just praised our family's first martial arts."

The smug expression on Li Hanye's face made that person feel relieved.

"Senior Li doesn't care about my slip of the tongue, and I feel much more relaxed. Thank you, Senior Li."

"Although this Li Hanye is a senior expert in the Jianghu, his temperament is really weird, but he is over 40 years old, but what he says is frivolous."

"Wang Musheng, who is traveling with him, seems to be more of a hero. It really is hard to predict the temperament of a master of the world." The young man in sable fur said to himself.

"Mu Sheng, I'm drinking two cups, let's go to rest, since we've reached the foot of Changbai Mountain, let's go up the mountain tomorrow morning."

Li Hanye sat down and took another sip of wine.

"Well, that's what I thought too."

Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, Wang Musheng and Li Hanye were also preparing to go back to the guest room to rest and prepare for the itinerary tomorrow morning.

"Can the two seniors stay a little longer to talk?" The man in the sable fur hurried forward and said.

"Oh? Brother, is there anything else?" Wang Musheng asked.

"I just heard that the two of you are seniors in the rivers and lakes. You came to Changbai Mountain to see the scenery of Changbai Mountain."

"That's right, the two of us really mean that."

The man said cautiously: "I wonder if I can be honored by the two seniors? I want to go with you. I wonder if you can show me your face?"

"Thank you, brother, for the invitation, but the two of us have been used to being quiet over the years, and we really don't like to join in the fun."

"Besides, you don't know martial arts, let alone light skills. If you walk with us, you will only be unable to keep up with our footsteps. You can't do anything to see the stunning scenery on the cliffs."

Seeing this situation, Li Hanye even said a few words and wanted to send that person away.

"Oh, it's a pity that I don't know martial arts, otherwise I can see the scenery that ordinary people can't see with the two seniors." He sighed.

"Brother, you don't have to worry too much. Everyone in this world has a different way to appreciate the scenery. He and I just know some small martial arts." Wang Musheng comforted.

"Okay, since that's the case, I don't dare to force the two seniors, so I won't disturb your rest. It's getting late, the two seniors, please rest as soon as possible."

"Well, you're not bad. Your vision is different from that person just now. Mu Sheng, let's go." Li Hanye seemed to be more forgiving towards him.

After finishing speaking, the three of them went back to their guest rooms to rest.

The night was getting darker, and the wind and snow all over the sky covered the moonlight at all.

Changbai Mountain is like this all the year round. During the day, the snow is thousands of miles away, pure white and flawless, but at night, it is dark everywhere, mixed with the howling cold wind, which makes people tremble. Only a few houses in this small restaurant are full of With the light of a few firewood.

"Mu Sheng, where do you think the old man is in Changbai Mountain?"

"I don't know, since the old man intends to let us go, there must be his guidance when the time comes."

"But this mountain road is long, where should we find him?"

"There must be a way for the car to reach the mountain, Han Ye, don't think about it, it's getting late, let's rest quickly."

"Ah."

When the sun rises, the twilight of the night gradually recedes, and there is a little warmth in the cold of Changbai Mountain.Two small figures walked on the mountain road of Changbai Mountain.

"I didn't find any strange places along the way. Except for the withered trees and heavy snow, there is no place where people can live nearby."

Wang Musheng said while walking.

"Hey, there is no one at the foot of Changbai Mountain. Although there are beautiful scenery on this mountain, there is really no place for people to live. This old man only asked us to go up the mountain to find him, but he really didn't give any guidance. .”

Li Hanye was still complaining, walking all the way, saying it countless times.

"However, since the old man said that he lives in seclusion on Changbai Mountain, there is no falsehood. He must be living in a place that no one else can find. Han Ye, let's look around for a while."

"Hey, Mu Sheng, if it's a place that no one else can find, it must be a place with a cliff, and the old man's martial arts skills are extremely high, so it's not difficult for him to find a cave on the cliff to live in."

At this moment, Li Hanye suddenly had a bright light, and it seemed that his mind was not full of complaints.

"That's right, Han Ye, you reminded me that he will definitely not live in a place where everyone goes, so it will be much clearer, you and I just need to find some flat land or caves on the edge of the cliff Well, he must be here."

After hearing what Li Hanye said, Wang Musheng suddenly understood.

But he shook his head hastily, "Hey, you said it lightly. The Changbai Mountain has a vast area, and the peaks are connected one by one. It is difficult, difficult to find out."

After hearing what he said, Wang Musheng still persisted, "You and I will search separately with great lightness kung fu, and we will definitely be able to find where he is within three hours with our kung fu."

When Li Hanye heard that he needed to use the Great Lightness Kung Fu to search for three hours, the divine light on his face disappeared instantly, his eyes drooped to nowhere, and his body curled up into a weak and powerless appearance.

"My mother, if you want to be ruthless, you, Wang Musheng, are number one in the world. With three hours of lightness kung fu, your legs will be useless. I know why your father didn't let your elder brother be the head."

"For perseverance, it still has to be you, Wang Musheng!"

"."

"If you don't want to use lightness kung fu, just walk step by step and see when you want to go. I'm leaving."

After all, Wang Musheng couldn't escape Li Hanye's gossip-like mouth, thinking that he would run away as soon as he left.

"All right, all right, Mu Sheng, I'll listen to you."

Now Li Hanye can only agree to Wang Musheng's method, and he has not forgotten to arrange a plan, "In this way, you and I will act separately. Once we find it, we will use the name of sword energy immediately, and the sword energy will rise to the sky. I will naturally go looking for you when the time comes." .”

"Listen to you, listen to you, let's go!"

After speaking, Wang Musheng used his energy to fly to the northwest, and Li Hanye went to the southeast.

Li Hanye was alone at this time, he kept using tree trunks to step on his feet, and flew around with light kungfu, "This Changbai Mountain is covered with white snow, and there is a deep abyss under the cliff, how can people live in this place."

"Old man Baishan, old man Baishan, you will really give us problems, I wish this was a conspiracy, so that I don't have to bother to run around."

Li Hanye wandered around in various mountain peaks, but couldn't find a single place. At this moment, Li Hanye began to be careless, and could only enjoy the scenery of Changbai Mountain.

When Li Hanye reached a low peak, there was a cave below!
Li Hanye couldn't wait to draw out the soft sword at his waist, and saw that he drew out the sword instantly, using one of the fifth moves of the Shenjian style "shooting without a target" to sweep towards the sky.

A bright silver sword energy immediately escaped from the sword body, sword edge, and sword tip, and rushed straight into the sky like a wandering dragon.He wanted to tell Wang Musheng that he seemed to have found it.

At this time, Wang Musheng was on a mountain peak not far from the northwest, and those silver-white sword lights were particularly dazzling on the ethereal Changbai Mountain.

"Could it be that the kid found it?" Wang Musheng hurried to where the sword energy was.

"Han Ye, did you find it?" Wang Musheng came to Li Hanye's side within half a stick of incense.

"Mu Sheng, look below."

Wang Musheng immediately looked down, and there really was a cave protruding from the cliff, Wang Musheng said to Li Hanye happily: "Han Ye, could it be here?"

"Don't worry, let's go down and have a look."

After saying that, the two used their lightness kung fu to fly down, but when they got down to the mouth of the cave, the scenery in front of them was unexpected.

"Han Ye, the crack at the entrance of the cave is definitely not a work of heaven!" Wang Musheng was extremely surprised when he saw this situation.

"That's right, the entrance of the cave is so flat on all sides, it's clear that someone deliberately cut it off with a sword." Li Hanye said, stroking the marks on the entrance of the cave.

"The opening of the cave should have been only a small part at the beginning. It seems that someone deliberately dug the cave open, but the martial arts of the person who dug the cave entrance is not weak. The stone is at least a few feet thick, but the cut marks are indeed So clean and neat, like a sword to the end, never leaving any extra moves."

"That's right, with such power, there must be no one else in today's arena, it should be the old man who is right," Li Hanye replied.

"Han Ye, let's go in and have a look." Wang Musheng immediately walked into the cave.

"Wait!" Li Hanye grabbed Wang Musheng's hand and said.

At this moment, he put on a very serious face.

"Why are you so vigilant now? Although you and I are strong in martial arts, after all, in this strange place, there may be many traps in the cave, so we must be careful in everything!"

Wang Musheng felt relieved after hearing Li Hanye's reprimand, thinking that he could finally get serious.

"Han Ye, it's because your heart is smaller, I've completely forgotten about it." After speaking, the two drew out the long swords around their waists, and walked cautiously into the cave.

Suddenly, the sound of two people drawing their swords and waving sounded in the cave.

"Han Ye, there are so many flying squirrels in this cave, be careful!" Wang Musheng said loudly while driving the bats away.

As soon as the two entered the cave, they disturbed the bats that nested there all year round, at least a hundred of them.

"Wait for me to drive them all away." After speaking, Li Hanye immediately performed the move "Sword Light Dance" in "Shen Xin Sword Art".

I saw that Li Hanye's steps were light and ethereal. Although his sword moves looked soft and weak, like a dance, but wherever the sword edge went, it was powerful. Soon he drove the bats around him out of the cave.

He put the soft sword in his hand into the sheath, and stroked the hair that was messed up by the flying and fleeing bats just now. "In this high and cold place of Changbai Mountain, there are so many flying squirrels in this cave."

Wang Musheng also shook his sleeves, "This bat likes the dark, and this cave is the best choice. These little beasts are extremely poisonous, and it will be troublesome if he bites them."

"What are you afraid of? I have driven them all away, but after all, the cave is indeed overgrown with weeds, and there is no trace of human habitation."

Those flying squirrels nest here every day, I'm afraid it's not very comfortable, and today they are really unlucky, they were abruptly abandoned by us, hey, what do you think?Are we in the wrong place? "

Li Hanye scratched his head with his hands while talking, wandering back and forth repeatedly in this momentum.

But Wang Musheng said affirmatively: "You can't be wrong, Han Ye, have you forgotten the traces of the hole being chiseled? This is definitely not a coincidence. Let's look deeper."

"Okay, if that's the case, let's go all the way!"

The two walked straight into the cave, but the cave was so big, but the cave seemed to have been deserted for a long time, except for the weeds all over the place, there was nothing inside.

The two walked for nearly ten minutes.

"Mu Sheng, this is already the deepest point. There is nothing in front of you except the smooth stone wall."

"Could it be that we really found the wrong place, Kedongkou." Wang Musheng thought to himself.

Wang Musheng touched the stone wall in front of him, and when he was about to turn around and leave, his fingers seemed to touch something.

"Han Ye! Look here." Wang Musheng hurriedly called to Li Hanye who was about to leave.

"what happened?"

It turned out that there was a small smooth stone inlaid on the stone wall. The cave was so dark that it was hard to see with the naked eye!
"Look here there is a stone embedded in it, there must be a mechanism in the cave!"

"Mu Sheng, as expected, you discovered the mystery." Li Hanye said happily.

Wang Musheng immediately pushed the stone down with his hands, but the ground under their feet suddenly collapsed.

"Han Ye, it's not good!"

I saw the two perform lightness kung fu almost at the same time, avoiding to the side.

"Being the head of the sect for so long, I think you have forgotten everything. You don't have to think about this kind of place. There must be some traps. There is a rope on the ground that binds your feet and then hangs you upside down. What's the reason? Arrows and crossbows are shooting at your head, and there is still this big hole, the bottom must be full of bamboo thorns, if you don't believe me, go over and see if there are any."

"...Can't you say a few words less, I know I'm wrong, I know I'm wrong." Wang Musheng was caught by Li Hanye's "flaw" at this time, and he could only pray to him and worship Buddha.

Li Hanye snorted, "If I had reacted quickly, I would have fallen into this trap."

"I was indeed careless." Wang Musheng was indeed a little embarrassed.

"You, you must have been the head of Jiuhua for a long time, and you will make this mistake. It will take time to get up after falling down." Li Hanye said to Wang Musheng in a reproachful tone.

"Haha, don't you too, why didn't you remind me this time?" Seeing this, Wang Musheng quickly seized the opportunity to tease him.

"How did I know you have such a short memory?" Li Hanye didn't refute after hearing this, but just avoided him in a secretive way.

"Haha, it seems that you have been too comfortable for a long time and have forgotten many things in this world!"

Halfway through the conversation between the two, the stone wall on the right opened slowly.

"Mu Sheng, look, this organ is not just a trap."

As soon as the stone wall was opened, a strong white light shot straight into the cave. On the other side of the cave, there was another snow-white mountain, but this mountain was so flat!
"Mu Sheng, there is another world behind this cave."

"This old man must be here, Han Ye, let's move forward."

"it is good!"

No one would have thought that there is such a flat land hidden in Changbai Mountain. It is no different from the mountains outside, but different from the outside world, it is not so cold.

"Mu Sheng, it looks like we found it!" Li Hanye said.

There is a small wooden house conveniently in front of the two of them. The wooden house is very tidy up and down, and it seems that someone is cleaning it every day.

The two walked to the wooden house and said, "Senior, Li Hanye and Wang Musheng are here to pay their respects."

However, there was no response from inside the room. Li Hanye and Wang Musheng said again, "Senior, we have arrived here, please come out to meet me, senior."

No one in the room responded.

The two of them looked at each other, and were about to get up and go into the room to check. It was a rather handsome young man who was nearly seventeen or eighteen years old who came out of the room, looking at Li Hanye and Wang Musheng with very surprised eyes.

He looked at the two with strange eyes, "You two guests, my master is inside."

Seeing this, Li Hanye and Wang Musheng immediately got up and walked into the house, while the young man walked outside.

"Hurry up, both of you, the old man has been waiting for some time, I'll go pick some fruits outside the house to entertain you two." The young man became ordinary again at this moment.

When the two pushed open the door, a powerful palm force struck Li Hanye and Wang Musheng.

Immediately, the two of them used their kung fu and the other sent out a palm to resist.The room was filled with three powerful internal forces, as if it was about to collapse at any moment.

But what is strange is that there is another palm force that seems to be restraining these three forces, so that the whole room is firmly planted on the ground. on the table. .

This power is not Li Hanye's, nor Wang Musheng's, it is the white-haired old man in front of him.

It turned out that this old man was using his other hand to control these three forces with a little effort!
"This person is so powerful, even stronger than I imagined!" Wang Musheng thought to himself while resisting with his palm.

"Senior is really powerful. Li Hanye is very impressed that he can control three such powerful internal forces with one person." Li Hanye also fought with him calmly.

"The two of you really deserve your reputation." The white-haired old man withdrew his palms after finishing speaking.

"Senior's martial arts is so high, it's rare in my life!" Wang Musheng said in admiration.

"Old man is just an ordinary old man who lives on the mountain. He has already forgotten the depth of his martial arts."

The old man stroked his white beard and said with a kind smile.

The old man's hair and beard were already white, his face was covered with wrinkles, and his eyes could only be slightly blurred.

Li Hanye couldn't wait to speak, "From my point of view, old man, you are not an ordinary old man. The strength of your palm is enough to prove that your martial arts have already reached the peak. The old man only used less than half of that palm just now." Let’s make it as good as left and right.”

"Senior, let me tell you that you are more than 100 years old." Li Hanye said again.

"That's right, this old man is one hundred and nine years old this year." The old man responded.

"People who are over 100 years old are extremely rare in the world, but you, senior, still have such skill. Even if you call yourself an ordinary person now, you must be polite in the world. The two of us have to pay respects to senior." After Wang Musheng finished speaking, he and Li Hanye saluted the old man at the same time.

Seeing this, the old man hurriedly said: "You two can't help it, get up quickly, get up quickly!"

"This is a matter between the two of us. Seniors don't need to worry too much." Wang Musheng and Li Hanye said.

"Are your father Wang Bai and your respected teacher Su Shihong still safe?"

Li Hanye and Wang Musheng were very surprised when they heard the old man say the names of their father and master.

"Senior, my father and Master Su have already gone west." Wang Musheng said.

"The two of them have already left so early."

The old man stood up and sighed as he walked.

"Senior, how do you know your teacher and Uncle Wang?" Li Hanye asked.

"I was already famous in the Jianghu from a very early age. By the time I retired, the two of them had become the latecomers in the Jianghu. By chance, the two of them visited me once before I retired."

"At that time, I pointed out the two of them. At that time, the two of them were already one of the best masters in the Jianghu. Judging from the age of the two of them, they were only in their 40s. They must have not been born at that time."

"That's right, my father and Master Su did take over as the head of the sect very early on, and I can be regarded as my father's son in his later years." Wang Musheng said.

"The old man is right. My family teacher adopted me when he was 50 years old and brought me to Shenjian Villa." Li Hanye also said.

After listening to their words, the old man praised: "There is nothing wrong with this. It can be seen that the martial arts of the two of you are indeed the same as what the outside world said. You are the wizards of the martial arts in this world. The talent and martial arts cultivation of the two of you are stronger than that of the two of you." Your master and I were back then."

"Senior, it's absurd. Han Ye and I just like to study martial arts, and we can't compare to you, senior." Wang Musheng didn't dare to show other inappropriate things in front of him.

"Senior, with your martial arts, I'm afraid that even Mu Sheng and I can't compare."

"Hehe, the two nephews are just joking. If you are at your age and have the current level of cultivation, you will be at least ten years behind you in terms of old age." The old man said kindly.

"By the way, old man, Mu Sheng and I have read the contents of the letter repeatedly. What is the reason that made the Jianghu bloody, and the "Holy Illumination Heart Sutra" is in the end."

Before Li Hanye finished speaking, the old man interrupted him. "The events of those years have passed, and you two also know that killing is inevitable in the Jianghu. I am ashamed to say that the main reason is because of my frivolity when I was young. As for the Heart Sutra, I originally wanted to use it to get rid of it." I changed the order of the rivers and lakes by myself, but who knew that things would get worse and worse, alas."

"The old man's mentality of saving the world should be admired by people in the Jianghu. If there is a mistake, there must be something hidden in it." Wang Musheng said.

"That's right, disputes are indispensable in the world. It was the same in the past, and it is the same now. The old people don't have to worry about it. When I was young, I was young and frivolous, and I made a lot of mistakes." Li Hanye also said.

"Maybe, I'm looking for you two mainly because of this "Holy Illumination Heart Sutra"."

"Oh, what kind of martial arts is this "Holy Illumination Heart Sutra"?" Wang Musheng asked.
