Taiping Inn

Shushan, as the name suggests, is a mountain in Shuzhou. Located in the southwest of Emei Prefecture in Shuzhou, it is covered with emerald clouds and black makeup, just like a beautiful lady with long eyebrows, thin and long, beautiful and gorgeous, so it is also called Emei Mountain.

Shushan is one of the four famous mountains of Buddhism, but this dynasty worships Taoism and despises Buddhism. As Buddhism weakened, Shushan also followed the footsteps of Zhongnan Mountain and became a land without a master. Later, a wandering immortal came here and founded a sect, which is today's Shushan Sword Sect.

Although the Shushan Sword Sect has a shallow foundation and cannot be listed as a sect, it is the largest sect under the sect, and it is powerful in Shuzhou, and is on par with Miaozhen Sect, Qingyang Sect, and Tangjiabao in Shuzhou.

In terms of power, the Shushan Sword Sect has surpassed many weak sects, but it still cannot be promoted to a sect. One of the reasons is that the Shushan Sword Sect has not produced another immortal person except the founder of the sect.

On the other hand, other sects have all produced immortals, and there are even more than one, even the extremely weak Hun Tian Sect and Zhen Chuan Sect. In other words, the ancestors of the two sects were also rich. Several earth masters came from Hun Tian Sect, and Zhen Chuan Sect even produced two saints. It is said that one person is a sect.

As for other sects, it goes without saying that the two major sects, Wu Dao Sect and Zheng Yi Sect, have immortals in almost every generation. Qing Wei Sect, Butian Sect, etc. also have an immortal earth immortal every two to three generations. This is the foundation.

In this case, Shushan Sword Sect is inevitably not good enough, even a little shabby.

Today, Shushan Sword Sect does not have a top master who can shake the world. Even the head of the sect is only in the realm of heaven and man. He has never been on the Taixuan list, but has been listed in the black and white list. However, the limitations of the Black and White Chart are too great, and many masters with deep backgrounds dare not comment on them casually. Many masters also disdain to be listed in it, so many people in the martial arts world do not recognize the ranking of the Black and White Chart, and still focus on the Taixuan List.

So far, no matter how the ten people on the Taixuan List change, they are still mainly disciples of the sect. Even Ning Yi is on the list as a guest of the Female Sect and the Taiping Sect, not to mention that Ning Yi also has a thousand connections with the Confucian Sect.

However, the Shushan Sword Sect has an advantage. Because of the diversity of inherited skills and the large number of disciples, although it dare not say that there is no distinction between the teachings, for most people, they can always choose one of the seven sets of sword techniques that suits them. On the basis of sufficient numbers, there are many core masters. There are quite a few people in the Xiantian Realm and Guizhen Realm in the Shushan Sword Sect, adding up to nearly twenty people. This is also the confidence of the Shushan Sword Sect to be on par with the Miaozhen Sect, the Qingyang Sect, and the Tang Family Fort.

The gate of Shushan Sword Sect is located on the top of the Golden Summit, the main peak of Shushan Mountain. However, there is a town at the foot of the mountain. It is very lively. Many families of Shushan Sword Sect disciples are settled here. Many guests who come to visit Shushan Sword Sect will also stop in the town and take a short rest before climbing the mountain.

There is a restaurant in the town, called "Shushan Restaurant". It is simple and clear. In fact, this restaurant is also opened by Shushan Sword Sect to entertain friends in the martial arts world. Today, three guests came to the restaurant, two men and one woman. Judging from their appearance, they are all between 30 and 40 years old. In the world where people are rare to live to 70, they are already in the category of middle-aged people, and it can even be said that they have walked half of their lives.

The three people ordered a table of wine and food, but few people started eating, and most of them were drinking.

The leader looked about 30 years old, with a vicissitudes of life, a little bit of depression in the depths of his eyes, carrying two swords, and was clearly a man of the martial arts world, but he had a bit of bookish air and elegant manners. In the eyes of ordinary women, this kind of man is both civil and martial, and has a story, which makes people want to explore. Just like a pot of mellow old wine, it is worth savoring.

Another man and a woman also have good temperament, but they are much older than the man with two swords. They look about 40 years old. The man is extraordinary and the woman is graceful. Obviously, they are not ordinary people.

Just at this time, a young voice sounded on the first floor of the inn, "Man, the old rules."

Then there was the sound of footsteps on the stairs.

The inn clerk agreed, "Please go upstairs, young master, your seat is reserved for you."

Then, a young man carrying a long package went upstairs and walked straight to a table by the window. As for the long package, it can be seen at a glance that it is a long sword. Some people in the rivers and lakes do not want to be too ostentatious when walking in the rivers and lakes, not only covering their faces, but also covering their weapons.

The three people who were drinking looked at the young man, and the woman chuckled, "He is a disciple of the Shushan Sword School."

The other two men just said "um" without any statement.

The woman was somewhat helpless about the dull nature of her two companions, and said, "Who will go to ask questions? It's not good for a woman like me who even has a son to show up in public, right?"

The two men looked at each other, and the man with the double swords said, "I'll go."

After that, he stood up with a pot of wine, walked straight to the young swordsman, sat down opposite him, and asked bluntly, "Do you mind having a drink?"

The young man was obviously stunned for a moment, perhaps because he was on his own territory, he didn't have so much guard against others, and smiled and said, "Meeting is fate, then drink."

The man with the sword poured a glass of wine for each of them, and said, "My surname is Ning, my ancestral home is Longmen Prefecture in Zhongzhou, and now I live in Huainan Prefecture in Luzhou. This time I came to Emei Prefecture to visit friends. May I ask what your surname is, young man?"

The young man said, "No need to mention it, my surname is Qi, a local. I have been worshipping the Shushan Sword Sect since I was a child, and now I am an inner disciple of the Shushan Sword Sect. Brother Ning seems to be a man of the world?"

The person wearing the double sword is Ning Yi, and the sword he wears is the "grandmaster" and "blind the way". People in the court said that he was a general under Li Xuandu's command, and he was not wrong at all. Xuandu trusted and relied on Chong Ningyi very much and regarded it as his right-hand man.

Ning Yi said, "I failed to study and accidentally got into the world. Let's just say it."

The young man surnamed Qi asked, "Have you asked Brother Ning what school he is?"

Ning Yi said, "I am a disciple of Taiping Sect."

The young man surnamed Qi changed his face slightly, and then he returned to normal. He smiled and said, "It turns out to be the famous Taiping Sect!"

Ning Yi drank the wine in the glass in one sip and said, "It's not a big name, it's still much worse than Zhengyi Sect and Qingwei Sect."

"Brother Ning is too modest." The young man surnamed Qi also raised his wine glass, "Who doesn't know that the leader of the sect, Mr. Qingping? Even if the "Demon Sword" returns to the world, he is not a match for Mr. Qingping. With Mr. Qingping in charge, Taiping Sect is a major sect in the world. On the contrary, Zhengyi Sect, the old master of the Heavenly Master passed away, and the new great master Zhang Jingchen was killed by Mr. Qingping again..."

Speaking of this, the young man surnamed Qi suddenly realized that he had made a mistake and hurriedly said, "If there is any disrespect, I hope Brother Ning will forgive me."

After saying that, he drank the wine in the glass and shone the bottom of the glass towards Ning Yi.

Ning Yi poured another glass of wine for the young man and said, "It's not a matter of disrespect or not, this is not something that cannot be said. Zhang Jingchen colluded with the "Demon Sword" and intended to oppose the unification of the Taoist sect. It would be more than a loss of death. My sect leader is just Following the will of the old master, he made things right, abolished Zhang Jingchen's name as the great master, and established another little master Zhang Luanshan."

Ning Yi said it lightly. The young man surnamed Qi felt awkward. What was wrong with the trouble, it was clearly a matter of destruction. Such a battle between the two countries seemed to be at war. In the end, Zhengyi Clan was defeated and had to sue for peace. He was in charge of war. The "emperor" naturally cannot escape death. The winner will establish a new king. There are few such stories? But he didn't dare to say this, and forced a smile and said, "That's right. By the way, Brother Ning just said he was visiting a friend?"

Ning Yihan nodded with a smile, "That's right."

The young man surnamed Qi asked again, "Brother Ning came to the town. Could it be that the friend Ning visited was from my Shushan Sword Sect?"

Ning Yi said, "Brother Ning is very thoughtful, that's exactly what it is."

"I don't know what the name and surname of Brother Ning's friend is? Maybe I can help Brother Ning introduce him." The young man surnamed Qi changed his mind and secretly speculated about the purpose of this disciple of Taiping Sect.

Ning Yi said: "This matter is also related to my sect leader. I believe Brother Ning should know that the Zhang family in Jiangling Prefecture. My sect leader has an old age with Mr. Zhang. I heard that Mr. Zhang’s nephew Zhang Baizhou was learning art in the school, so I sent me. Come on."

When the young man surnamed Qi heard this, he felt a little relieved and said, "It's a coincidence that Junior Brother Zhang is now going down the mountain to experience training and is not on the mountain."

Ning Yi said "Oh" and asked knowingly: "That's a pity. I wonder when Young Master Zhang will return to Shushan?"

The young man surnamed Qi shook his head and said, "I don't know this."

Ning Yi was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Is it true that the head of your sect is here?"

The young man surnamed Qi was stunned, and did not think deeper, and replied, "Here."

Ning Yi smiled and said, "That's not a pity. Mr. Qingping has a letter to me to pass it to the head of Qi of your sect."

The young man surnamed Qi was a little uneasy, but when he thought about it, he felt that it was his own illusion. This is not something wrong with his territory when he was away?

So the young man surnamed Qi said, "If Brother Ning doesn't mind, I can lead the way for Brother Ning. By the way, my name is Qi Feixia."

"Good name." Ning Yi praised, pointing to the two of them again, "By the way, I have two companions."

The other two stood up.

For some reason, Qi Feixia only felt that these two people were not ordinary people. If you want to describe them, they were Yuan Yuezhi, a grandmaster.

Could it be an elder in Taiping Sect?

Qi Feixia had such a guess, but she gave up the idea. I just feel that I am too worried. Who doesn’t know how Taiping Sect has just been "purged" by Mr. Qingping, and many elders have been seized from power and even banned. How could it appear here?

In fact, Qi Feixia's intuition was not wrong. Although these two people were not elders of Taiping Sect, they did have good identities. The man was Ji Shuye, the leader of Miaozhen Sect, and the woman was Mrs. Tang Wan, the head of Tangjiabao. These two people are not only famous in Shuzhou, but also have a reputation in the entire world.
