Taiqing Sword

Chapter 257, Foreigner?

Shangguan Jinghong bowed again: "Senior has good eyesight, indeed, I once learned the six-character mantra from a string of Buddhist beads, and this martial art has saved my life several times."

The old monk laughed: "It seems that you and I are very destined. I carved this six-character mantra on a string of sandalwood beads, but I don't know where I left the beads. Unexpectedly, you picked them up." .”

Shangguan Jinghong shook his head: "This junior didn't pick up the beads, I just saw this string of beads from a friend."

The old monk nodded with a smile: "Well, my comprehension is good. When I carved the beads, I deliberately left a difficult problem. I didn't expect you to learn it anyway. Not bad."

"Senior won the award, it's just a coincidence."

Hui Yuan curled her lips: "Junior Brother Huizhen, have you guys finished talking about the past? Shouldn't we talk about something serious?"

Only then did Shangguan Jinghong know that the old monk was called Huizhen: "Little benefactor, since you have learned two of my martial arts, you can be regarded as half of my disciple. In the future, you can also use my Zen name to travel around the world. Hehehe."

Shangguan Jinghong never thought of using the name of Buddhism, but naturally he would not reject Huizhen's kindness, and said with a smile: "Thank you, senior." After speaking, he glanced at Zhonglitu meaningfully.

I saw that Zhonglitu's face was very ugly. The reason why Zhonglitu was able to be domineering was mostly because of his reputation in Buddhism. Now, if Shangguan Jinghong became a disciple of Zen, then his advantage would be gone. He immediately said: "Old man Ancestor, this Shangguan Jinghong is allied with the Demon Sect, and even has a deep enmity with my Buddhist sect. If the old Ancestor accepts him as a disciple, I am afraid..."

As soon as Zhonglitu's voice fell, he sneered casually and said: "Zhonglitu, put away your little thoughts, the ancestors value people's character, if you don't have Buddha nature, how can you learn the two martial arts of the ancestors? But you, relying on the reputation of Buddhism, are arrogant and domineering, and my reputation of Buddhism has been ruined by people like you."

"You! Follow your heart, you don't want to spout blood. Everything I do is for the sake of Buddhism. Shangguan Jinghong killed four of my Xingzong disciples one after another..."

"Four disciples? Tell me, under what circumstances were your four disciples killed?"

Zhong Li and Tu Zhiwu couldn't speak for a long time, Hui Hai coughed: "Have you finished talking? Can we discuss the matter of the Dark Demon Sect?" Arguing, I'm afraid Huihai will clean up the door for Buddhism.

The two snorted coldly and stopped talking, Hui Hai said: "Brothers and disciples, apart from the disciples above Jue's generation, most of you here must have only heard of the Dark Demon Sect and never seen it, right?"

All the disciples nodded, and Hui Hai continued: "Well, I will add some more. We actually added the name of the Dark Demon Sect to them. As for their real origins, I don't know. Many years ago, a group of The strange man wearing an iron mask stepped into the Central Plains martial arts and said he was recruiting disciples, so I just ignored it. I don't want these people to be cruel to those who refuse to submit to them. If they are not as good as they want, they will be killed , the Central Plains Wulin Zhengdao heard about this and strangled them one after another. Unexpectedly, this group of people's martial arts skills were extremely high. Instead of being able to stop them, they were exterminated. My Buddhist sect had no choice but to expel them with great effort For this reason, my Buddhist sect is also seriously injured."

Shangguan Jinghong couldn't help asking: "Senior, what did you mean when you said that the Dark Demon Sect was added?"

Hui Hai smiled: "When several eminent Buddhist monks fought against him, I found that the martial arts used by some of them were similar to those of the Dark Demon Sect in ancient times. My Central Plains is completely different, so I have no choice but to call it the Dark Demon Sect."

Shangguan Jinghong nodded thoughtfully, the language is different?That must not be a person from the Central Plains, could it be a Persian?

Hui Hai went on to say: "A few months ago, several people were killed at the foot of my Xiangzong Mountain. The old man urgently sent his disciples to investigate, and the person who investigated was Juexin."

Jue Xin took a step forward: "Uncles, when the juniors were investigating, they found that the bodies of several people were completely black when they died, as if they had been burned, but they did not find any clues to the murderer. Fortunately, one of the survivors told the little monk , was killed by a man wearing an iron mask..."

Jue Xiang said: "Brother Juexin, just wearing an iron mask, isn't that enough to prove that the person who came here is from the Dark Demon Sect? There are also iron masks everywhere in the Central Plains."

Juexin nodded, and said: "Junior Brother Juexiang is right. If it was just that, I wouldn't think about the Dark Demon Sect, but the survivor mentioned a characteristic, and I was convinced that it must be the Dark Demon Sect." Undoubtedly the Demon Sect!"

Shangguan Jinghong hurriedly asked: "Senior, what are the characteristics?"

Jue Xiang curled his lips: "Depending on your strength, what's the point of asking? If you really want to start a fight with someone from the Dark Demon Sect, I'm afraid you won't be able to run away even if you want to."

Shangguan Jinghong didn't care about Juexiang's words, instead he smiled: "Senior is right, but if this junior can see through in advance, maybe he can escape with his life?"

Juexin said with a smile: "Shangguan benefactor, the people of the Dark Demon Sect have one characteristic, their eyes are blue, and like me, they are all black. Maybe the martial arts they practice are different, or they may change, but the essence remains the same. Yes, people from the Dark Demon Sect seem to be born this way."

Shangguan Jinghong's heart skipped a beat, and now he can basically conclude that the person who came was a Persian, or some other foreigner, and hurriedly asked, "Senior, is it blond?"

Jue Xin was stunned: "That's right, that's right, what's the matter? Shangguan benefactor has seen someone from the Dark Demon Sect?"

Shangguan Jinghong shook his head slightly: "Although I haven't seen anyone from the Dark Demon Sect, I have seen some blond people."

Upon hearing this, Hui Hai hurriedly took two steps closer: "When did you meet?"

Shangguan Jinghong was startled by Hui Hai's momentum and took two steps back: "Senior, that happened a long time ago."

Hui Hai stomped his feet: "Unexpectedly, the Dark Demon Sect was already planning to invade the Central Plains many years ago."

Shangguan Jinghong waved his hand: "No, no, senior, I misunderstood. I said I have seen it. I didn't see the person from the Dark Demon Sect, but the blond-haired and blue-eyed person."

Jue Xiang snorted coldly: "Isn't the blond one the Dark Demon Sect?"

Shangguan Jinghong shook his head slightly: "Not necessarily, the people living in the Western Regions and the extreme north of the Central Plains are basically blond and blue-eyed, and there are many civilians among them, not all of them are members of the Dark Demon Sect."

Hui Yuan asked eagerly: "What else do you know? Tell me everything."
