Chitose words

After entering October, the Kunling Snow Mountain in Handong has already entered the snow season, which is completely silent.

At this time, the forbidden area at the top of the snow-capped mountains is like a forbidden area of ​​life, with almost no trace of animal life.

Squirrels, civet cats and other living animals in the mountains have also migrated to settle halfway up the mountain or at the foot of the mountain.

As for the sound of human voice, it is even rarer.

However, at the top of the extreme west at this time, there was a figure jumping among the mountains and mountains.

He almost made an afterimage of the long sword in his palm. Under the strong wind and snow that split the sky and covered the earth, his figure was upright, like a ghost, more like a god.

The man's clothes don't look heavy, and even a little thin.

To be able to feel so comfortable on this snowy and wind-swept mountain top shows that his inner strength has reached the state of transformation and is absolutely extraordinary.

After a while, he finally drew back his sword.

Then Zhizhi clicked lightly, and in an instant he jumped down from the top of the extreme west and landed on the stone steps in the mountain.

In the blink of an eye, this back figure disappeared into the stone path in the mountain. Looking at the direction, it was heading halfway up the mountain.

Not long after the man left the top of the extreme west, he walked to the gate of Fuji City. The disciples guarding the gate all bowed and saluted.

"City Lord!"

"Ah."

The man is Xue Kunyu, the "Sword Immortal of the Universe", the city lord of Fuji City, who is known as the best sword sect in the world.

Among the three peerless masters in the Immortal Mysterious Realm in the world, except for the two from Tianchen in the Southern Dynasty, he is the only one from the Northern Dynasty.

He is also the last "Sword Immortal Tomb" Sword Immortal to practice in the Immortal Realm more than 180 years ago after the "Nine Saint Sword Immortal" who was in the Immortal Realm in Fuji Castle.

Fang Duo, the eldest disciple of "Qiankun Sword Immortal", had already been guarding near the mountain gate.

When he saw his master Xue Kunyu coming back, he quickly stepped forward to follow him.

"Master, a nightingale has arrived from Arruo Prairie to bring a message.

This is an urgent red seal. I dare not delay, so I will wait for you here. "

"Qiankun Sword Immortal" did not stop, but his brows furrowed slightly when he heard this.

"Arruo Grassland? If your uncle is not at the Princess's residence in Guangling City, then who else would write a letter?"

Fang Duo replied: "Master, disciple, look at it, the wax seal of the letter box tied to the nightingale's foot is the seal of the Hulu Holy Altar."

"Bring it."

"Yes."

Xue Kunyu's fingertips are covered with calluses over time.

He took off the wax seal on the wooden mailbox, took out the yellowed kraft paper, and opened the letter to read.

After a while, he put down the letter and said to the eldest disciple Fang Duo in a calm tone:

"It's a letter written by Holy Envoy Hulu."

"Holy Envoy of Hulu?"

Fang Duo was puzzled, he frowned and said:
"However, the Holy Envoy of Magaya was ordered by the Grand Prince of Yuwenbu to guard Yuwenbu for life and would rarely leave the Hulu Holy Altar.

He seemed to have no personal relationship with his master before. Even if he sent a letter to Fuji City, it should have been sent to his uncle, the eldest son of Prince Xing's account. How could he specifically send a letter to his master? "

"Qiankun Sword Immortal" showed a look of reminiscence on his face and sighed softly:
"When I was young and had not been lucky enough to join Master's disciples, I had a chance encounter with Holy Envoy Magaya in Guangling City. I was still young at that time.

My mother had a difficult time in the mansion during that short period of time, and she was ill and found it difficult to get up.

A mother cannot be favored by her mistress, so naturally there is no medicine available when she is sick.

At that time, because he was young and thin, I got out of a dog hole in the garden of the mansion and ran to the street to find a way to seek medical advice for my mother. I happened to meet Mobo, the Holy Envoy of Hulu, who came to Guangling City for personal matters. yeah. "

"what!"

Fang Duo looked up with dumbfounded eyes at the master who was standing with his sword in the Xianfeng Daogu.

He had never heard his master talk about his past, and he couldn't even imagine that the lord of Fuji City and the majestic "Sword Immortal of the Universe" was so poor and miserable when he was a child. How could the matter of "drilling into a dog hole" be related to his master, who had a cold and gentle face and a respected status in the world?

But the fact is, this thing really does exist.

"Qiankun Sword Immortal" smiled nonchalantly.

“Everyone knows that a teacher’s background is unknown, there is nothing strange about this, and it should not be avoided.

Holy Envoy Hulu was very kind to me in the past. At that time, he saw me asking for medicine everywhere, but I couldn't bring out a tael of silver and was kicked out of the hospital. So he felt compassion and gave me two pairs of herbal medicines. I went back to treat my mother. "

Fang Duo was stunned when he heard this.

He said: "But why has the Holy Envoy of Hulu never seemed to have any interaction with the Master for so many years? Even before this time, there was no correspondence between the Master and the Holy Envoy."

Xue Kunyu nodded with a smile.

"Holy Messenger Hulu is a kind man with a pure mind. He never asks for anything in return for his good deeds.

Later, even though the news that I had entered Fuji City spread throughout the North, he never repaid his kindness and took the initiative to contact me. "

Fang Duo frowned: "In that case, it is not something that the Holy Envoy takes the initiative to contact Master this time."

Xue Kunyu sighed and said: "This time, Holy Envoy Hulu thought that he really had no choice, so he sent me the letter as a nightingale.

The Holy Messenger said in the letter that his body was on the verge of reaching its limit, and it was estimated that it would take more than a month for Fu Yingxian to die.So, he wanted to ask for this old favor from me. "

"What does Holy Envoy Hulu ask for? Master, is it difficult to do it?"

Fang Duo asked.

While they were talking, the master and apprentice had returned to the courtyard of the "Qiankun Sword Immortal".

"Qiankun Sword Immortal" is not used to having people close to him to serve him, so except for disciples who come in to clean up at fixed times, no one is guarding his courtyard at other times.

Xue Kunyu placed the Qiankun Wuji Sword in his hand properly on the sword holder in the hall of the courtyard, then turned around and replied:

"It's not difficult to handle, but it requires a lot of hands-on work and more care - the Holy Envoy is about to pass away, but his disciple, the next new Holy Envoy of Hulu, is still young.

Therefore, he wanted to exchange his past kindness for me to go to the Hulu Holy Altar, and accept his close disciple Luo Zhuo as my disciple to continue teaching him martial arts.After the new Hulu Holy Envoy Luo Zhuo has first mastered martial arts, he will be allowed to return to the Hulu Holy Altar to formally succeed him as the Holy Envoy. "

".This?"

Fang Duo was shocked when he heard this and said in puzzlement: "But master, the Holy Envoy of Hulu, Mobuye, has been famous on the grassland for a long time. The Holy Envoy is probably older than the disciple's grandfather.

According to this inference, the disciples of the Holy Envoy should be quite young, perhaps even older than the master. Why do they still need the training and guidance of the master? "

Xue Kunyu shook his head and said: "In the early years, Hulu Holy Envoy did not meet any disciples who had the right foundation and fate, so his closed disciple is actually only eight years old this year.

It may not be a good thing if one reaches such a young age without the guidance of a teacher and ascends to the high position of Holy Envoy in vain.

The Holy Envoy Hulu had great affection for his disciple, so if he wanted to entrust him to teach him for a few years, he would at least have to wait until Luozhuo reached Guan. "

"I see."

Fang Duo nodded when he heard this, feeling a little sad in his heart.

"The old holy envoy was kind to the master in the past, but now he has no selfish motives. He loves his disciples all the time. The master thought it was because he couldn't bear to refuse his dying request."

He thought for a while, cupped his fists and said impolitely:

"However, it is the snow season in Kunling Snow Mountain. Master, you are devoted to Taoism and martial arts, and you don't want to miss this rare time to practice.

How about letting the disciple go to the Hulu Holy Altar instead of the master?The disciple will definitely take the little junior brother back to Fuji City safely. "

Unexpectedly, "Qiankun Sword Immortal" slowly shook his head.

"No, although Holy Envoy Mobuye is not at the highest level of martial arts, he has been doing good to help others throughout his life. He is a saint on the Arruo grassland. Due to emotions and reasons, this trip should be made in person as a teacher."

A hero's twilight years is often more heartbreaking than a beauty's twilight years, which makes people unable to bear to look at it.

But now, the two of them have not seen each other for more than 20 years.

The old man who was independent in the long street and watched the children of humble background stumble away with two bags of herbs is now in his twilight years and has no future.

Now is the time to replace him and give him a gift.
