Chapter 47 Conditions for Action
Wu Yan looked at the old-looking old man in front of him who was about to enter the coffin. He couldn't believe that this old man was actually a master of transformation.
Because no matter how you look at it, he is just a bad old man. Even after observing it with his celestial eye, Wu Yan found that although this bad old man was handsome and restrained, he had a very strange aura that was quietly passing away from him. With. This passing breath is probably the human vitality mentioned in "Qi Movement and Cultivation Technique".
The bad old man was standing in front of Wu Yan in panic at this time. He had a calm expression just now. When Wu Yan looked at him for a while, he was actually taken aback from the inside out by the ordinary-looking man in front of him, wearing a large black robe. The young man has a transparent feeling inside and outside.
The bad old man was now 100% sure that the seemingly inconspicuous young man in front of him was a real immortal master. Because this feeling was exactly the same as the one the Immortal Master gave him when he looked at him.
This old man who looked to be in his seventies or eighties, with a slovenly appearance and unkempt clothes, was introduced by Lu Chunyang to be the master of the four, Deputy Leader Huang Xing. It’s true that people cannot be judged by their appearance. The bad old man was holding a long wooden box under his arm and a square wooden box in his hand. He was looking at Wu Yan carefully with a smile on his face, for fear of accidentally offending Wu Yan. look.
Wu Yan would not let down his guard against him just because he looked like this. He frowned and said, "Deputy Leader Huang, where is the map?"
"Well, no rush, no rush. Haha, young hero, are you the disciple that Elder Feng took in three years ago? Haha, okay, Elder Feng has not wasted all these years looking for young disciples with immortal soul bones. Ah, young hero, I would like to ask, where is Elder Feng now? Alas, the Iron Sword Alliance was created by Elder Feng’s ancestors. I am considered an old man of this alliance. I really don’t want to see this alliance in Lao Chen. It turned into nothing before my eyes..." Huang Xing rolled his eyes, which were white and black, and stared at Wu Yan secretly, while chattering endlessly.
The shouts of killing at the foot of the mountain are getting closer and closer, and some disciples have even retreated to the foot of Xiaogu Mountain. The sound of whining horns and clanging warning gongs are constantly ringing at the foot of the mountain. A large number of disciples wearing silver-white sword uniforms and holding long swords rushed out of the hall at the entrance of the mountain and were waiting in an orderly formation. Invisibly, the atmosphere on the mountain became more solemn and depressing.
Wu Yan didn't have the energy to talk to this bad old man. He couldn't help but waved his hand and interrupted the old man's words. He said in a bad tone: "Deputy Leader Huang, my patience is limited. I don't want to go on a killing spree here. Take the map." Give it to me, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude. Since you are an old man from the Iron Sword Alliance, you should know better than me what kind of person Feng is. As for me, I don't know now. I am about to leave this place and leave the Iron Sword Alliance. I want to tell you clearly that from now on he will be him and I will be me. You must consider this clearly."
The bad old man Huang Xing's eyes flashed, and he seemed to be startled. Wu Yan had already put his hand on the cowhide around his waist without politeness, ready to spill some poison at any time if something went wrong. Seeing Wu Yan's extremely calm look, Huang Xing thought about it and sighed, like a deflated rubber ball, and said sadly: "Oh, forget it, this is karma. Wu Shaoxia, you are really old at this time. I have to admire you. People who are half buried in the earth should have seen through the world long ago. This is the map you want. After all, I made great efforts to draw this map and give it to you. , It can be regarded as making the best use of it. This box is the treasure of our Iron Sword Alliance. As for what it is, you will understand it. I believe you will be interested. "
At this moment, Huang Xing seemed to have aged a lot, and his face even showed a hint of deathly gray. He tremblingly handed the long wooden box and the square wooden box to Wu Yan.
Wu Yan thought about it for a moment, and did not take the thing from Huang Xing's hand. Instead, he whispered to Huang Xing in a very calm tone: "If possible, I will take action for the Iron Sword Alliance." . However, if the person who comes is really beyond my ability to resist, I will never show any strength. What do you think, Deputy Leader Huang?"
Upon hearing this, Huang Xing's face flashed with joy, and he nodded repeatedly. At the same time, he chuckled awkwardly and said, "Young hero, please keep these two things. In fact, I don't mean anything else. It's just that I was taken in by my ancestor, so I don't want to I would like to see the founder's legacy destroyed. But if the time is really up, I won't force it. With this promise, I think it's worth it. Please wait a moment."
Huang Xing handed the long wooden box to Lu Chunyang and asked him to place his hands flat in front of him. Huang Xing used his dry hands to start dazzling operations on the wooden box.
Click, click, click, dozens of slight noises came from the wooden box, as if something like an iron mechanism was being removed from the wooden box.
In the blink of an eye, the wooden box, which was originally more than two feet long, made soft clicking sounds. The panels on the four sides of the box were automatically disassembled into dozens of iron pieces. Huang Xing picked them up and handed them to You Chunpeng next to him. .
This long box seems to be made of wood on the surface. Unexpectedly, the panels of the box are all made of metal. It is just that a layer of paint like a wooden board is painted on the outer wall of the box, which makes the box look like a wooden board. made.
After the iron wall of the outer box was removed, a copper cylinder more than a foot long hidden in the long box was revealed. Huang Xing rubbed the copper cylinder with complicated eyes, feeling rather sad.
After a while, Huang Xing calmed down and handed the copper cylinder and the wooden box to Wu Yan, sighing and saying: "Young hero, don't blame me. This geographical map of the Sirius Kingdom is from the old brothers such as Lao Chen and others." Risking a near-death experience, he traveled through dozens of counties in the six states of the Sirius Kingdom to draw this picture. In order to preserve this picture, several old brothers died on the way back. This iron box is called the "Tianji Box". Dozens of secret tricks have been deployed. As long as Lao Chan activates one of them at will, it is guaranteed to destroy the map hidden in this box in an instant. Of the old brothers, now only Lao Chan is left. Alas, I also hope that the young hero can make good use of this picture, and it will not be in vain for all the hard work."
Wu Yan took the copper cylinder and the wooden box with some emotion. At the same time, he also felt a little guilty about himself, secretly blaming himself for being careless. If I had been careless just now, I am afraid this picture would be ruined. It seems that my experience in martial arts is still shallow, otherwise how could I give Huang Xing any chance to ruin this picture?
However, now that he heard Huang Xing's words, Wu Yan felt a little admired by this bad old man. His feelings for the Iron Sword Alliance are actually so deep.
"Deputy Leader Huang, I don't want anyone on the other side to know my identity before I take action. Of course, it's best not to let my side know. This can be regarded as a surprise strategy. Okay, I'll take the things. , but seeing that the end of an old man like you is approaching, although I dare not say that I am a good person, I can't just ignore it. Well, thanks to you for giving me a picture, here is a pill that can prolong life, which can be regarded as repayment. Thank you for your gift of pictures.”
Wu Yan turned over his hand and took out a small porcelain bottle and gave it to Huang Xing. There is a life-reviving pill in the small porcelain bottle. I believe that with this life-reviving pill, Huang Xing can live for at least a few more years.
Unexpectedly, Huang Xing rejected Wu Yan's kindness. With an intriguing smile on his face, he turned to the trembling young disciples behind him and said, "You four, go and guard the Tianji Cave now. Leave this place to the four of them." ”
The four young disciples bowed and accepted the order and left. The Four Swords of Gushan were left at the door of Fengyun Hall by this old man. Huang Xing secretly nodded to the four of them, and the four of them nodded knowingly to express their understanding.
Wu Yan smiled, said nothing, put away the Life-Reviving Pill, and said: "Old Huang, please, I'll follow you, let's go down and have a look."
Huang Xing was overjoyed and said no more. He took the lead and walked down the mountain with a long black sheath sword. Wu Yan followed him leisurely and walked down the mountain.
