Taiping Inn

Chapter 203: Meeting on a Narrow Road

The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal said to Yu Qingning: "You stay here."

After saying that, he didn't care whether Yu Qingning agreed or not, and stepped directly into the "Yin Yang Gate".

Yu Qingning was slightly annoyed, but he didn't have time to say anything.

After a while, the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal walked out of the "Yin Yang Gate" again, with a strange look on his face.

Seeing his expression, Yu Qingning didn't care to get angry with him, and asked: "What's inside?"

The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal said: "Come in and see for yourself."

Yu Qingning followed the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal into the "Yin Yang Gate", which turned out to be just a small room, without lights, and pitch black, but the walls around it emitted a faint fluorescent light, which allowed people to roughly see the outline and size of this small room.

This place can actually be regarded as a cave, but it is very small. The size of the cave varies depending on who built it. The big ones are like Kunlun Cave, which covers several states, while the small ones are like this, which is only the size of a room.

Yu Qingning subconsciously took a few steps forward, and heard a "click" sound. She then realized that something was wrong with the ground under her feet, and subconsciously looked down.

At the same time, Zifu Sword Immortal rubbed two fingers and re-lit the eternal lamp on the wall that had been extinguished for some reason.

Yu Qingning saw bones everywhere. Some of them were old and turned into dry bones. They would break if touched. Some of them were obviously "new", that is, they were in the past few years.

Yu Qingning said softly, "Ah": "It looks like the work of the old Zaoge Sect."

Since Li Xuandu re-established the Zaoge Sect and Yinyang Sect, in order to distinguish them from the past, the word "old" would be added when referring to the Zaoge Sect and Yinyang Sect in the past.

The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal had obviously checked these bones, shook his head, and said, "Take a closer look."

Yu Qingning was not a delicate young lady, she often walked around the world and was not afraid of dead bones. Upon hearing this, she bent down and carefully checked the bones on the ground.

Zifu Sword Immortal asked, "Did you see clearly how these people died?"

Yu Qingning pointed to a skeleton and said, "There is no sign of poisoning, nor any trace of injury by external force. It seems that they died naturally or died of illness. But if they died normally, why hide the bodies here?"

Zifu Sword Immortal said, "Because they died of exhaustion of vitality."

Zifu Sword Immortal's realm is far above Yu Qingning. Yu Qingning did not question Zifu Sword Immortal's vision and asked, "Do you think it was done by the Female Sect?"

Zifu Sword Immortal did not comment and said, "Maybe, maybe not. It is true that the Female Sect is proficient in the art of collecting and replenishing, but in addition to the Female Sect, the Wudao Sect and Wangqing Sect also have the "Eclipse Sun Method" and the "Swallowing Moon Method", which directly absorb the vitality of others, which is more cruel than the art of collecting and replenishing. This is why these skeletons are so fragile. If they died normally, the remains left behind should be very strong."

Yu Qingning nodded, agreeing with Zifu Sword Immortal's inference.

The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal said: "No matter how they died, they are dead after all, let them return to dust and earth to earth."

After saying that, he waved his sleeves and turned the bones in the room into powder, then emptied his palms and pushed the turbid air in the room and the powder out of the room.

The place was immediately clear.

The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal took out two cushions from the Xumi treasure and placed them at the two ends of the secret room.

Yu Qingning knew that Li Xuandu liked to put all kinds of sundries in the Xumi treasure, so it was not surprising. However, the "Eighteenth Floor" should be in Li Xuandu's hands at this time, so she couldn't help asking: "Where did you get your Xumi treasure from?"

The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal glanced at her and said concisely: "I robbed it."

Yu Qingning was speechless.

The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal motioned Yu Qingning to sit down, and then fumbled on the wall for a while, and a thin green water curtain appeared on the wall, like a mirror.

Zifu Sword Immortal's thoughts moved slightly, and the three courtyards outside appeared in the mirror, with a clear view.

It seems that the people who built this cave heaven in the past were very thoughtful. When hiding here to avoid the enemy, they can still observe the movements outside in the mirror. However, the owner of the deserted house later used this cave heaven as a place to dump corpses.

Zifu Sword Immortal was quite satisfied with this, and found another mechanism. With a slight turn, the "Yin Yang Gate" connecting this place with the outside world slowly disappeared.

After doing all this, Zifu Sword Immortal sat down on the futon opposite Yu Qingning.

Yu Qingning was already sitting cross-legged, with his hands placed on his knees, five hearts facing the sky.

Zifu Sword Immortal took out a cassock from the ring left by Ji Tianwang and said, "Don't talk, I will tell you the "Future Star Mahayana Tribulation Sutra" first. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me."

Yu Qingning nodded.

Zifu Sword Immortal stopped talking nonsense and began to recite the "Future Star Mahayana Tribulation Sutra".

Yu Qingning's qualifications were not inferior to those of Yan Feiqing, Su Yun'an and others. He was also a disciple carefully cultivated by Xuannv Sect. He was very knowledgeable. He remembered it after just listening once. There were a few places that he didn't understand. He studied and discussed with Zifu Sword Immortal. After a little discussion, he understood it.

While Zifu Sword Immortal was explaining the "Future Star Mahayana Tribulation Sutra" to Yu Qingning, he also began to practice.

The two of them worked hard and practiced according to the law.

As elite disciples of major sects, patience is a necessary quality. After all, haste makes waste when practicing qigong. If you are impatient, you may even go astray. Some older people can even sit for several years.

The two of them did the same, sitting in a small room without seeing the sun, and could only count the time by the circulation of the qi in their bodies.

After about three days, Yu Qingning felt that the stuffiness in her chest had loosened slightly, and a small part of the "Haoran Qi" had been dissolved, allowing her to recover from the Baodan realm to the Xuanyuan realm. Even the "Haoran Qi" blocked in her body gradually showed signs of loosening.

Yu Qingning thought to herself: "This "Future Star Mahayana Tribulation Sutra" is worthy of being one of the top methods of Buddhism. It is indeed extremely mysterious. I think it will take less than ten days for me to recover to the Xiantian realm." She did not dare to slack off and continued to work hard.

As for the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal, the whole person had become illusory, as if countless afterimages overlapped in one place, sometimes returning to one body, and sometimes splitting into several bodies.

Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye it was already early April, and ten days had passed since the two left Baidi City.

On this day, the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal suddenly opened his eyes, his face solemn.

Yu Qingning felt something, and opened his eyes, looking at the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal.

The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal did not speak, but just pointed his finger, and the water mirror slowly emerged, and a white dragon building ship was seen slowly descending above the deserted house.

Seeing this scene, Yu Qingning immediately understood why the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal had a solemn expression. It turned out that Li Xuandu had come in person, but he didn't know whether Li Xuandu was passing by here or had already grasped the whereabouts of the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal.

The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal's expression became more and more solemn. Even if the five Confucian masters were added together, they didn't give him such pressure. He never thought that Li Xuandu was not in the East China Sea to heal his injuries, but came to Shuzhou in person, or that Li Xuandu had recovered from his injuries?

There was a small artificial lake in the deserted house, and the white dragon building ship landed directly on the lake, stirring up layers of green waves.

Then a group of people came down from the White Dragon Tower, led by Li Xuandu and Qin Su, followed by many unfamiliar faces, who were not disciples of the Qingwei Sect, nor disciples of other sects. Yu Qingning immediately understood that these people should be people from the inn directly under Li Xuandu.

Zifu Sword Immortal pulled the water mirror closer, and could hear the voices of everyone.

Zhang Baizhou and Murong Hua followed behind them, and heard Murong Hua say: "According to the confessions of the remnants of the Qingyang Sect, the people who attacked in Baidi City should be the three corpses, but we came too late, and the three corpses had already escaped from the sect."

Zhang Baizhou said: "I just felt something was wrong that day, but I didn't know that he was the three corpses of the master."

Li Xuandu did not speak.

Murong Hua asked, "Sir, you don't come to Shuzhou often, how do you know there is an abandoned house here?"

Li Xuandu said, "About the seventh year of Tianbao, Susu and I came here, Senior Shi should have an impression, right?"

Just then, another person got off the boat, it was Shi Wuyue, who said, "I remember, isn't this the place where Zhong Wu caught the adulterer? I also slapped that old guy."

Li Xuandu smiled lightly and said, "Don't hit someone in the face, Senior Shi, be careful that Er Mingguan will come to fight you."

Shi Wuyue said indifferently, "I'm not afraid of him."

Yu Qingning and Zifu Sword Immortal didn't expect that Li Xuandu, Qin Su, Shi Wuyue and others had actually been here, and it seemed to be related to the Yin Yang Sect.

The Purple Mansion Sword Immortal said softly, "It seems that the reason why this place is deserted has a lot to do with me. Fortunately, the people from the Yin-Yang Sect did not follow us."

After that, he looked at Yu Qingning again, his face showing a fierce look, and threatened softly: "Miss Yu, you'd better not act rashly, otherwise..."

Yu Qingning smiled bitterly, indicating that she understood.

Li Xuandu walked in front and headed straight for the main courtyard. Halfway through, he suddenly stopped and pointed to a place, saying, "If I remember correctly, Han Yaoyue died here."

"It's here." Qin Su said softly, "He deserved to die."

Yu Qingning suddenly realized that the world said that Qin Su killed Han Yaoyue personally, and Qin Qing and Qin Su's father and daughter never denied it. However, few people knew where he was killed. It turned out to be in this deserted house.

Qin Su was a little absent-minded, and had no feelings for Han Yaoyue. Instead, she said worriedly: "Nuwan was abducted by the three corpses, and we don't know whether she is alive or dead. If Nuwan is unfortunately killed by him, how can we face Master Xiao?"

Li Xuandu comforted her, "I still have some understanding of my three corpses, it shouldn't be like this."

Shi Wuyue also said, "This matter is still my fault. At worst, I will take the blame."

"It's not that serious." Li Xuandu waved his hand and said, "Everyone, don't worry. The three corpses should be hiding somewhere to heal. The cabinet minister and Senior Sister Shangguan have brought people to set up defenses and search for him everywhere. It's only a matter of time before they find him."

Qin Su said, "I hope so. This matter should be resolved."
