That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 859 There is a sword hidden in the mountain sheath

In the 23rd year of Taiping, autumn, August [-]rd, cloudy, windy, rushing to the south of the tiger, suitable for bathing, not suitable for long-distance travel.

When Xu Beiyou returned to the Imperial Capital this time, he did not live in the Han Mansion, but directly moved into the newly completed Emperor's Mansion. However, Xiao Zhinan still lived in his own Princess Mansion, and did not move here. But because intercourse between husband and wife is forbidden during the funeral, so the two simply live in separate houses.

At this time, in the princess mansion, due to the change of the weather, earth dragons that consume countless charcoal were born early, and the thick Baozhu country carpet was spread. No coolness.Xiao Zhinan, who had just finished taking a shower, was only wearing a jacket, his long hair was loose, and he stepped on the carpet with bare feet. He picked up a folder from the table next to him, glanced at it casually, and put it down again.

Meili, who was sleeping soundly, was startled, she raised her eyelids to glance at her master, turned over, and fell asleep again.

Xiao Yuyi sat at the side, wearing a plain skirt, facing the sky. Because of the period of filial piety, the hairpin on his head, the step shaker, and the bracelet on his hand were all replaced with silver ones, matching his slightly pale face. Don't have the delicate charm of a sick beauty.

Seeing Xiao Zhinan put down the folder, Xiao Yuyi asked, "Did something happen to the war in the south?"

Xiao Zhinan, who was barefoot, walked up to Xiao Yuyi and sat down, nodded and said, "Yu Kuang's Jiangnan Navy was defeated, Jundao, Nanhu, and Tieshan's three naval camps were all lost. Now Xiao Jin's army is not only The soldiers approached the city of Jiangdu, and even sent a partial division to push Jiangling."

Xiao Yuyi has been the queen of Dazheng, and the princess, eldest princess and eldest princess of Daqi. Naturally, she is not a boudoir girl who knows nothing about political affairs. After hearing the words, her face was serious, and she asked: "What is the situation in the whole Jiangnan?" how?"

Xiao Zhinan knocked on the table with his fingers, and slowly uttered the word "difficult".

Xiao Yuyi said softly: "Nowadays, although there are Mr. Han Ge and Mr. Xie Ge in the temple, in the final analysis, you, the Xiao family, are still in charge of the overall situation. You have to know how to deal with it."

Xiao Zhinan nodded and said: "What my aunt said is that the foundation of the country left by my father cannot be lost in the hands of a daughter like me."

Xiao Yuyi sighed: "Lingbao and Taibai left too early, and there is no reason to hand over this huge mess to your daughter's family."

Xiao Zhinan shook his head lightly and said: "What makes no sense, it is said that the father should pay the debt, this is the burden left by the father, since Xiao Bai's son is gone, it is only natural that my daughter will take it up .”

Xiao Yuyi said: "That can't be carried by you alone, now that you are married, husband and wife are one body, if you have any matters, you should discuss with your husband, it is easier for two to carry than one. "

Speaking of this, Xiao Yuyi paused slightly, and said with a wry smile: "Don't learn from me when it comes to getting along with husband and wife."

……

In Xu Beiyou's mansion, there were no servants, maids, or guards. There was only Xu Beiyou in such a large mansion. At the same time, Xu Beiyou used thousands of swords in the sword box to set up a sword array to envelop the entire mansion. Looking at this place from a distance, you can see the sword energy here shooting the bullfighting sky.

Although Xu Beiyou and Xiao Zhinan are in the filial piety period, they only need to live in separate houses, and there is no need to live in separate houses. The reason for this is more important because Xu Beiyou wants to retreat to absorb Qingshuang's sword energy and spirit, and to gather the perfection of the twelve swords of the sword sect. Take the last step to achieve the invincible sword fairy that the master once said.

In the quiet room of the mansion, Xu Beiyou sat cross-legged, surrounded by twelve swords hanging in the air around his body.

Tianlan, Quexie, Inexplicable, Xuanming, Wudu, Chilian, Baihong, Zidian, Huanglong, Tianwen, Shugui, Qingshuang.

The first eleven of the twelve swords have all been taken by Xu Beiyou for his own use, leaving only the last sword, Qingshuang. This sword and Zidian were originally a pair, but because they have followed Xiao Shen for decades, the other The strength of the sword energy is far better than that of Zidian, second only to Shangguan Xianchen's Jugui Yijian.

Xu Beiyou, who was sitting cross-legged, stretched out his hand, and the twelve swords began to revolve around Xu Beiyou. When Qingshuang's sword turned in front of Xu Beiyou, it stopped abruptly.

Xu Beiyou held Qingshuang, laid it across his knees, closed his eyes and concentrated.

For today, Xu Beiyou deliberately waited until his cultivation base reached the peak of the seventeenth floor of the Earth Immortal before starting to retreat. With Xu Beiyou's current high level, just absorbing the sword energy and spirit of a sword is nothing. The key is What changes will happen after the twelve swords of Jianzong are assembled? Is it a vision from heaven?Is it turbulent?Or directly lead to catastrophe?

Therefore, judging is an unprecedented thing, so there is no record in Jianzong's classics, no matter what happens, it can only be faced by Xu Beiyou himself.

Xu Beiyou was silent for a moment, and let out a breath. The next success or failure will directly affect Jianzong, the court, and even the general situation of the world.It's not that Xu Beiyou is boasting, it is true that Wanjun's burden is all related to him alone now, if he has any troubles, it will indeed have a great impact on the current situation, not to mention other things, as long as Qiuye recovers from his injuries, in Xiao Yu's flying, With Xiao Xuan dead and Xiao Bai also dead, who in this world can stop him?
For now, only Xu Beiyou has the hope of fighting Qiuye, so Xu Beiyou cannot die.

Xu Beiyou held the hilt of Qingshuang's sword with one hand, tapped Qingshuang's sword tip with the other, and closed his eyes, "Jianzong's twelve swords, Jianzong's 36th, I have the last sword left. The last three swords failed to fully understand the true meaning, sword 34, sword 35, and sword 36."

A rich green energy slowly emerges from the green frost.

At the same time, Jianzhong Island, 36 islands in the East China Sea, is thousands of miles away.

In the center of the island is a sword-shaped mountain peak, with a hollow belly and dark red magma in it. Although it is scorching hot, it is as calm as a dark red lake with no waves.

All of a sudden, the magma roared like water when the tide came, with bubbles bursting continuously, and even the whole mountain began to shake slowly, and the rocks fell into the magma.

The next moment, a huge sword rose slowly from the magma.

The size of the giant sword fits perfectly with the size of the mountain pass, like a long sword and its scabbard.

Take the mountain as the sheath.

Seeing this scene, Xu Beiyou was so shocked beyond words.

Any monk who has set foot on Jianzhong Island will think that the mountain where the Great Sword Immortal Shangguan Xianchen retreats is like a sword, including Xu Beiyou. It was not until today that Xu Beiyou realized that he was completely wrong. This mountain is not a sword. It's a scabbard.

What kind of sword should that sword be?

Suddenly, there was a whistling sound in the sky, followed by the trembling of thousands of sword qi covering every inch of Biyou Island.The trembling sound was full of chilling meaning.

As time passed, the trembling sound became louder and louder, and thousands of swords were about to rise from the ground. The next moment, the volcano that had not erupted for more than a hundred years suddenly exploded, and dark red magma overflowed from the mountain pass, billowing thick Smoke shot straight into the sky.

A blue giant sword came out of the fire from the mountain pass.

Xu Beiyou suddenly came back to his senses.

At this time, the blue breath overflowing from Qingshuang kept pouring into his body, and after a while, he hiccupped and spit out a mouthful of blue mist.

Xu Beiyou slowly opened his eyes, and murmured softly, "I see."
