Dragon Warrior

Chapter 87

Xiao Jing stayed at the inn for a whole day without going out, and on the second night, after recovering enough energy, he ordered Shi Huolong and five people to wait at the inn, while he himself changed into a black long gown, left the inn by himself, and faced Wan Wan. An Temple and go.

He was blown by the wind all the way, like a ghost, he arrived outside the temple in a short while.Looking up, you can see that there are many pavilions and pagodas in the temple, and majestic palaces can be found everywhere, showing a luxurious atmosphere.But the most conspicuous thing is a pagoda at the back of the monastery. This pagoda has thirteen levels and is as high as fourteen or five feet, straight into Xiaohan.At this time, the lights in the tower are shining, and there are many figures, which is very magnificent from a distance.

With a flash of Xiao Jing's figure, he has already entered the temple.Although it was already night, the monks in the temple did not all rest. Many rooms were brightly lit, and there were laughter, chanting, and even the sound of men making love from time to time.

Xiao Jing ignored them and sneaked all the way to the tower. On the way, he encountered more than a group of monks and Mongolian warriors. However, he deliberately hid himself, so these people naturally couldn't find him.

Important criminals from various factions were imprisoned above the pagoda, and the defense was naturally extremely tight. Not only were there dozens of people on duty day and night below the pagoda, but there were also shadowy people on the pagoda, with people patrolling back and forth on every floor.

Xiao Jing stopped ten feet away from the pagoda, looked at the group of capable officers and soldiers at the pagoda gate, and couldn't help frowning.After a little thought, he disappeared in a flash, and returned to the same place after a while, only with a big crow in his hand.

Xiao Jing spread out the five fingers of his right hand and held them upwards. The big crow was thumping hard a few inches away from his palm, trying to spread its wings and fly high, but it seemed to be restrained by an invisible wall from all directions. No matter how much it flapped its wings, Always stay where you are.The crow panicked and kept chirping, but unfortunately the sound could only circle within a square inch, the outside world was still quiet, and no sound could be heard.

Holding the bird, Xiao Jing turned around and dodged to the back of the tower. Although patrolling warriors passed by here from time to time, it was much better than the front.The samurai patrolling upstairs started from the fourth floor, and they would stagger past each other after a while. Although they were on different floors, they had a perfect view of all directions.

Xiao Jing waited for a quarter of an hour, and finally found an excellent opportunity. There was only a team of warriors on the fifth floor at the rear, and the people on the other floors either went to the front or were on the side.Xiao Jing raised his right hand, and pushed lightly with Yun Jin, the big crow swished against the eaves of the fifth floor of the pagoda with a mass of internal force, and flew forward.

The eyes of that group of Mongolian warriors blurred, and they felt a black shadow fly by before them. They disappeared in the blink of an eye, and they were startled. Because the speed was too fast, they couldn't see what it was. They thought it was someone trespassing on the pagoda, so they chased Check.At this time, the crow was bound by the internal force and flew seven or eight zhang, suddenly its body lightened, the external force that restrained it finally disappeared without a trace, immediately spread its wings rapidly, and disappeared after a few croaks.

Xiao Jing was waiting for this opportunity. Just as the fifth-level Mongolian warrior turned around and chased after the crow, he immediately stretched out his body, turning into a black eagle in the boundless sky, going up against the wind, flying straight up to seven feet in the blink of an eye. Eight feet high, it landed lightly and neatly on the railing on the seventh floor.

At this moment, the patrolling warriors on the seventh floor turned around, Xiao Jing put his feet on the ground, and made a circle around the pagoda silently, but stuck behind the team of warriors, hiding his figure without anyone noticing.

Xiao Jing looked around a few times, and found that there were several rooms on the entire seventh floor. The doors were firmly locked, and there was only a one-foot-square window, and the inside of the room could not be seen at all.But his hearing is so good, he has heard the situation in several rooms clearly in a short while, his heart is relieved, and there is a burst of joy, it turns out that the detainees on this floor happen to be the Emei sect.

There were more than 30 people from the Emei faction who participated in the siege of Guangmingding, and they were divided into three groups of detention. Among them, Miejue Shitai was the supreme leader of the faction and was detained separately. The rest of the disciples were male and female in another.Judging from their voices, although these disciples were short of breath and out of breath, they did not suffer much damage.

Xiao Jing evaded the Mongolian warriors, and came quietly outside the room where Master Miejue was imprisoned, with his right hand holding the iron lock, his internal force penetrated through the lock, and performed the art of reversing the universe. The iron lock snapped open.

Xiao Jing flashed into the room quickly, inserted the lock cylinder, and closed the door.The team of samurai patrolled around and saw that there was nothing unusual, so they immediately felt relieved and filed into the room to rest for a while.

In fact, this is already the seventh floor, and the so-called inspections by the warriors are just routine, mainly to prevent any accidents from happening to people from various factions in the prison.As for the enemies outside, the people below will naturally have to deal with them. They don't believe that someone can go all the way around the lower six floors to get here. As for flying up with light work?In their limited knowledge, this is simply not something humans can do, but they don't know that Xiao Jing has sneaked into the prison.

Xiao Jing entered the door and swept it away, only to see a candle lit inside the room, and a middle-aged nun sitting cross-legged on the ground, closing her eyes and resting herself, ignoring the outside world.Although this nun's face is pale and haggard, her face is extremely rigid, and her eyebrows hanging upside down show a kind of coldness, who is it not Miejue Shitai?

Xiao Jing took a few steps forward and said softly, "Master, are you all right?"

Miejue Shitai originally thought that the other party sent someone to force him to perform Emei martial arts, so he ignored it at all, and made up his mind that even if he died, he would not let the method created by the ancestors of our school painstakingly pass into the hands of the enemy, but unexpectedly came A familiar voice suddenly opened his eyes.

It turned out that after Zhao Min returned to Dadu from Lvliuzhuang, he began to think about improving his martial arts.Although she has a good talent, the way of martial arts is to develop step by step, especially the way of internal strength, which must go through a long period of hard work.She also knows this very well. Seeing that her internal strength cannot be greatly improved in a short period of time, she wants to use exquisite moves to make up for the lack of internal strength. Thinking of the many martial arts masters she has captured, if she can learn all of them So, wouldn't that mean he could become a top player immediately?Therefore, they often force the masters of various factions to compete with their subordinates, claiming that they want to see their martial arts. Those who win three games in a row can let them go freely, and if they lose, they have to cut off a finger as punishment.

Miejue Shi was too thoughtful and sophisticated, and could see her intentions at a glance, so she resolutely refused to end the competition. Today, she has even developed the will to die, and has been on a hunger strike for three or four days.Hearing a familiar voice at this moment, Miejue Shitai was startled, and hastily opened his eyes to see that it was not his own illusion, the tall and tall young man was looking at her with concern.

Miejue Shitai was shocked, stood up hastily, and said, "Why are you here? Could it be that even you have ruined their evil hands?"

Xiao Jing said: "I learned that the major sects were murdered by others, so I traced all the way to this point, and just sneaked up while they were not paying attention. I didn't expect that everyone from the Emei faction was imprisoned here."

Miejue Shitai sighed: "The old nun spent his whole life, so many storms and waves have come, but he didn't expect to end up in the hands of a little girl. Now he is in prison, and his life and death are in the hands of others. The foundation of Emei may perish. Patriarch."

Xiao Jing said: "Master, you don't have to blame yourself. The enemy is scheming and calculating. Even the Shaolin and Wudang factions didn't escape it? And I came to Dadu this time to try to rescue everyone, not only the I, Immortal Zhang from the Wudang sect, have come, and my wife just needs to wait patiently for a few days, and I will be free again."

Miejue Shi was too surprised and said: "Really Zhang is here too? If you two join hands, it is indeed possible to rescue everyone safely. But there are always accidents in everything, and no one can guarantee whether the enemy will attack in advance. You can Sneaking up quietly, it must be easier to go down, I have one thing to ask of you."

Xiao Jing said: "Master, please tell me."

Juejue said: "I hope you will take Zhiruo away later. If the old nun unfortunately dies in the future, let her succeed me as the next generation head of the Emei Sect and protect the inheritance of my ancestor."

Xiao Jing said: "Why should the teacher be pessimistic? If there is nothing to do, the junior is confident that he can take the teacher and Zhiruo away safely. After all, Zhiruo is young, and I am afraid she cannot bear such a heavy burden."

Miejue Shitai said: "You are determined, but don't force it, first of all, you must do what you can. In fact, my personal life and death are minor matters, but the Emei Sect's inheritance is a major issue. This old nun is just to be on the safe side. I know such a heavy burden. It is indeed too embarrassing for her to fall on Zhiruo's shoulders, but the talents of my Emei Sect are withered. Originally, Xiaofu was the successor I valued, but unfortunately she is too disappointing. The potential of the other disciples is limited, and it is difficult to achieve much in this life. In such troubled times, if the head of the sect does not have strong martial arts, the Emei faction will decline sooner or later. Zhiruo is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, talented and intelligent, and her future is limitless. If she takes over as the head, with your support, the old nun will feel at ease .”

Xiao Jing said: "Won't the wife ask Zhiruo if she is willing?"

Miejue Shitai smiled and said: "Zhiruo is an obedient and responsible child. If she really reaches that point, I believe she will not refuse. I know what her scruples are. It is nothing more than that it is difficult to marry freely after becoming the head Now, there is no need to worry about this. The old nun will write a letter in his own handwriting to temporarily abolish this family rule. At that time, she can marry whoever she wants, and it is entirely up to her heart. I know she has always been in love with her. As for you, you have been grateful to the Emei School for your kindness in rebuilding the Emei School. Therefore, although I also hoped that Zhiruo would succeed me as the next head, I never forced her. But if the old nun unfortunately dies at the hands of the opponent , and please look after Zhiruo's face and take good care of the Emei Sect, the old nun will die in peace."

Xiao Jing couldn't help sighing in his heart, what kind of arrogant and conceited Master Miejue is in his daily life?At this time, for the sake of the sect's survival, she put down her body and begged herself to take care of the Emei sect. She can do so much for the Emei sect, which is really awe-inspiring.

However, Xiao Jing made up her mind to save Miejue Shitai's life when the time came. She didn't want Zhou Zhiruo to take on the burden that didn't belong to her prematurely like in the original book. With him in this life, she should live like a flower at her age. The poetic and picturesque life, instead of carrying the shackles of the whole life for a promise, a responsibility, painstaking efforts everywhere, and even becoming hateful.

At the same time, seeing that Miejue Shitai did not object to the ambiguous relationship between Zhou Zhiruo and herself, Xiao Jing suddenly felt that all these years of sparing no effort to help the Emei Sect had finally paid off, and that all the favors he had given her were not in vain.If this old nun is determined to beat the mandarin duck with a club, it will be a troublesome matter.

Miejue Shitai looked serious, so it was not easy for Xiao Jing to refuse directly.He originally didn't want to startle the snake, but at this moment he couldn't care less, and immediately said: "Master, don't worry, I will take younger sister Zhiruo to leave first, and the master doesn't have to be dead, wait for Master Zhang to arrive. , with our joint efforts, there will be a lot to do.”

Miejue Shitai said: "What the poor nun did just now is just for the sake of insurance. Since there is hope of leaving this place, the old nun will naturally not sit still."

Xiao Jing nodded, took out a small bag, and said: "Master, this is the antidote for Shixiang Ruanjin Powder, please keep it well, and take it as soon as possible so that you can recover your skills earlier. But before doing this, remember to keep it in its original state. , don’t allow people to see that if you take the Shixiang Ruanjin Powder for the second time, it will cause fatal harm to people, so don’t be careless.”

Miejue Shitai nodded without refusing, took the antidote and put it in his arms.

Xiao Jing pushed the door out again, and locked the door lock with his backhand.He walked quickly to the cell where Zhou Zhiruo was being held, still opened the lock two or three times, pushed the door open and entered.

The disciples of the Emei Sect were far less calm than Master Miejue, and all of them looked haggard at this moment, unable to hide the panic in their eyes.Seeing that the door was pushed open, all the disciples took a few steps back and looked at the person nervously, but they did not expect that an unexpected person came in.

Zhou Zhiruo originally thought it was Zhao Min who came to seek her bad luck again, and she was very upset, but when she looked up, it turned out that the person who came was Ai Lang, who had been thinking about it for a long time, her eyes turned red, her delicate body trembled, and she said in a trembling voice: " Brother Jing..."

Xiao Jing stepped forward and gently hugged him in her arms.Feeling the warm embrace and smelling the familiar scent, Zhou Zhiruo suddenly felt grievances in her heart, her shoulders trembled, and tears fell like pearls with broken strings.

Xiao Jing patted her on the back and let her vent.The rest of the Emei sect disciples didn't bother, although they wondered why Xiao Jing appeared here, but seeing that the two of them were completely selfless, they didn't want to disturb them rashly.

Time was running out, Xiao Jing patted Zhou Zhiruo on the shoulder and said, "Zhiruo, don't worry, I will take you away right away."

At this time, Zhou Zhiruo also realized that there were a group of teachers and sisters watching, she was immediately ashamed, her face flushed, and she buried her head in Xiao Jing's arms, not daring to raise her head.

Xiao Jing smiled slightly, and was about to fly down the tower with Zhou Zhiruo, when suddenly a peaceful and clear voice came from afar: "The benefactor is powerless to stop me from coming and going, but this little girl can't go, if the benefactor is confident Bringing a little girl with low martial arts skills can still save the two of them from the old monk's hands, so you might as well give it a try."
