Chapter 143: Shocking to Heaven, Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands
This place is so bloody and corpses are everywhere, so naturally it is not suitable to stay any longer.
So, everyone walked forward for a few miles.
At this time, Cheng Jinhe also roughly learned what happened before, and naturally thanked and praised everyone.
Naturally, Chu Ning was even more enthusiastic.
The few recruiters didn’t have much idea about this.
Strength is respected. This is true in the world of immortality, and it is also true in this mortal world.
Everyone settled down, but after what happened just now, most of them were completely sleepless.
The middle-aged man in gray, Yu Zhengchun, actually took the initiative to chat with Chu Ning.
“I wonder what kind of swordsmanship Chu Shaoxia is doing? I just saw that Shaoxia’s moves were ordinary, but every move was extremely practical and exquisite.
This sword technique is truly unheard of. ”
Hearing this, Chu Ning glanced at Yu Zhengchun.
This man never talks much. In the past month, the two parties have said no more than ten sentences together.
Not only did Yu Zhengchun look at him with curious eyes, but everyone else also looked at him very curiously
Chun Ning smiled and said, "I am here. I'm afraid Brother Yu and others have never heard of the sword technique, it's called Dugu Nine Swords. "
"Dugu Nine Swords? "
"Dugu Nine Swords? "
As soon as Chu Ning finished speaking, there were a few low shouts.
The faces of Yu Zhengchun and others even showed thoughtful expressions. From that look, they seemed to be Thinking about which martial art this was,
Chu Ning secretly laughed in his heart, then simply continued:
"This swordsmanship emphasizes the last move and the first move. There is no move to win but one move to win.
So when Brother Yu saw my swordsmanship, naturally there are no moves to speak of."
Hear it Chu Ning's words made everyone present at the martial arts competition look at each other in shock, and many people even looked shocked.
At this moment, Chu Ning stopped talking, with an unfathomable look on his face.
Although the rest of the people wanted to ask questions, they couldn't ask any more at this moment.
After all, asking again might involve someone else’s cultivation secret.
Yu Zhengchun also stood up from Chu Ning's side, with a serious look on his face.
Vaguely, he made eye contact with Shen Shaohai who was not far away.
The two of them immediately pretended to be casual and walked a little off the road, and then found a place to sit down.
Shen Shaohai continued to carve with a wooden root, while Yu Zhengchun looked closely with interest, but his eyes were always staring at the crowd.
The two of them talked softly in a voice that was so small that only the people around them could hear it.
"Lao Wu, do you think we can do this tomorrow?"
Yu Zhengchun lowered his voice and asked Shen Shaohai.
Shen Shaohai's face was gloomy at the moment, "Brother, have you retreated?"
"I don't know where this guy surnamed Chu comes from, he is too strong."
Yu Zhengchun's eyes were full of worry.
"Today we deliberately spread the word and attracted this group of horse thieves, but they didn't hurt many people. I'm worried..."
Yu Zhengchun said this and did not continue. explain.
When Shen Shaohai heard this, a fierce look flashed in his eyes.
“Brother, no matter how powerful he is, he is just a person. If we can’t do it openly, why don’t we do it secretly?
Looking for an opportunity tomorrow, we will launch a sneak attack directly. We only need to deal with this person named Chu.
Li Song and the others are not at our mercy. "
Hearing Shen Shaohai's words, Yu Zhengchun's expression also moved slightly.
"Lao Wu, you are somewhat sure. "
"Eight points! "Shen Shaohai said very confidently.
"Don't you still believe in my hidden weapon? What's more, there are third brother and fourth sister on the side to help. "
When Yu Zhengchun heard this, he hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said:
"Okay, then we will act according to the original plan and go it alone.
After working hard for more than a month, we can’t let that little kid ruin it by himself. ”
When Shen Shaohai heard this, a smile appeared on his face.
"That's it. Stop talking to them and just find an opportunity to give a gesture."
After the two agreed, Yu Zhengchun looked bored and got up and started walking.
And Shen Shaohai continued to carve there.
The behavior and expressions of the two people are so natural that no one can see anything strange at all.
It’s just that the two of them don’t know it at all. They think that even the smartest people can’t hear it.
But every word they said was clearly heard by Chu Ning.
"My guess is really correct. These people really know each other, and they do have plans."
Chun Ning muttered secretly in his heart.
His spiritual sense is very sensitive. In fact, he has already guessed it. Although several people pretended not to know them before.
But some inadvertent small gestures in speech and behavior have been noticed by Chu Ning.
At this moment, Chu Ning still pretended not to know anything, closed his eyes tightly, and continued to practice the divine refining technique.
There was no talking all night, and early the next morning, everyone continued to move forward with a little fatigue.
"Everyone, cheer up. As long as we walk faster, we can cross Beigangou at noon and reach the town ahead in the afternoon.
When we get there, we will have a good night's rest."< br>
Li Song shouted in a deep voice at this moment. After a night of tossing, he was still full of energy.
In his greeting, everyone set off again, cheered up and continued moving forward.
However, when they arrived at Beigangou at noon, the morale of the entire team was low, and everyone looked groggy.
After all, we didn’t have any rest last night and were on the road continuously. We all are not incorrigible.
At this moment, Shen Shaohai, who was walking at the front of the team, was also yawning and looking listless. His hand holding the horse's reins was even a little weaker.
As a result, he, who was originally walking side by side with Chu Ning, naturally fell behind.
He looked at Han Wangang and Du Huarong, and the next moment, Shen Shaohai's eyes suddenly flashed.
With a wave of his hand, the iron fan in his hand opened directly, and several black lights shot towards Chu Ning's back.
At the same time, Shen Shaohai actually shot out several short arrows from his sleeves, following the black light.
These short arrows did not shoot at Chu Ning's back, but cleverly blocked Chu Ning's dodge position.
At this time, whether Chu Ning was sitting still or moving left and right, he would definitely be shot by one of the hidden weapons.
Seeing this scene, Shen Shaohai couldn't help but feel a trace of pride on his face.
But, the next moment, what made him slightly shocked was.
That Chu Ning seemed to have eyes.
The giant sword in his hand was raised and he blocked it back at will.
“Dang! Dang!”
After a few collisions, the black lights were directly blocked.
At the same time, Chu Ning's body sat still, and the short arrow that had blocked Chu Ning's dodge flew directly from Chu's side.
“Do it!”
Shen Shaohai’s expression changed drastically and he shouted violently.
But before he yelled, Han Wangang and Du Huarong had already moved first.
The two of them flew straight up from their horses, one wielding a copper hammer and the other wielding a long sword, and they attacked Chu Ning at the same time.
Following the two of them, Shen Shaohai also flew up. The iron fan in his hand pressed some mechanism, and a dagger protruded from it.
Holding a dagger, he stabbed Chu Ning straight into the back of the heart.
The three of them were so fast that even Li Song and others at the back of the team did not react. The three of them had already attacked Chu Ning.
Seeing that the weapons of the three people were about to hit Chu Ning at the same time.
At this moment, Chu Ning held the giant sword in his right hand and waved it casually.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
A few more sounds sounded, and the three of them realized as if they had seen a ghost. With this wave, the weapons of the three of them turned out one after another. All were blocked.
At the same time, the three of them felt a huge force coming towards them, their jaws shook, and all the weapons in their hands flew out.
The three figures also fell to the ground one after another under the shock.
“How is that possible?”
Looking at Chu Ning, who was still sitting on the horse, then turned slightly and looked calm.
The faces of several people turned pale, and their eyes were filled with fear.
“What’s going on?”
Behind, Li Song and others finally noticed something strange and immediately drove their horses forward.
Looking at the three people on the ground, their faces were as gloomy as black ink.
"Brother Li, haven't you seen it yet? These five people are not simple."
At this moment, Chu Ning said in a relaxed tone.
At the same time, on the surrounding hillsides, figures stood up from their hiding places and rushed down brandishing weapons.
When Li Song heard this, his face immediately changed. He suddenly thought of something and shouted:
"The Five Heroes of Montenegro!"
Read out these five While writing the words, Li Song's heart felt cold.
The Five Heroes of Montenegro are not robbers on this road, but they are famous in several nearby countries.
Many businessmen are killed at the hands of a few people every year. It is said that these five people are all highly skilled in martial arts and come and go without a trace.
People in Jianghu only know that the five of them are all outstanding in skills, but no one can really tell their appearance.
It was precisely because of this that Li Song didn't think of it when the five people arrived one after another. When he thought about the superb martial arts of the five people, he might not be able to defeat any of them even if he tried his best. Li Song felt a faint feeling of despair in his heart at this moment.
Li Song's expression changed drastically, as did Yu Zhengchun and the skinny monkey-like Dai Zuen behind him.
They never expected that the joint sneak attack by Shen Shaohai and others would be so easily resisted by Chu Ning.
The next moment, they jumped up almost simultaneously.
Leaping towards the carriage where Cheng Jinhe was sitting.
“My boss!”
Li Song and the other guards behind him were shocked and angry when they saw this.
But at this moment, a ghostly figure appeared next to the carriage.
“Bang!” “Bang!”
The next moment, along with two dull sounds, two figures flew directly into the air.
Then it hit hard five feet away.
After a mouthful of blood came out one after another, they died.
"Big brother!"
"Second brother!"
The three people in front who had just been shot down were all shouting at this moment.
At this moment, they looked at Chu Ning walking slowly from behind, with no other color in their eyes except fear.
"You...who are you?"
Shen Shaohai's face no longer looked as cool as usual at this time, and he looked at Chu Ning as if he had seen a ghost.
“You don’t have to know.”
As the voice sounded and then fell, Chu Ning's figure disappeared in a flash.
The next moment, three more figures flew up and fell down, without the slightest breath.
When the robbers who had just rushed down saw this scene, they also stopped and became at a loss.
“Everyone in charge is dead!”
At this time, I don’t know who shouted.
Suddenly, hundreds of people dispersed one after another.
All this happened in a flash of lightning, from Shen Shaohai's attack to Chu Ning's attack twice.
When Li Song and others reacted, there were no other changes except that there were 5 more corpses on the field.
For a moment, everyone couldn't help but be shocked by Chu Ning.
“This Young Master Chu is really awesome!”
"Yes, among the five of us, no one can catch his move!"
A group of guards exclaimed there.
The deputy team leader Yao Song murmured, his eyes filled with light.
"There is such martial arts in this world!"
"Young Master Chu..."
Li Song also roughly understood what happened at this time, and he breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he quickly came to Chu Ning and clasped his fists to say something.
“Don’t say any more polite words. I accepted your employer’s money and promised to complete the escort.
As for what happened just now, it’s just that my ears and eyes are more sensitive. I happened to hear it yesterday or two days ago. The conversation between a few people.
Let’s get on our way quickly.”
Hearing what Chu Ning said, Li Song naturally stopped saying anything and continued on his way as he greeted everyone.
At this moment, Chu Ning was the only one taking the lead.
However, no one felt anything was wrong.
After all, Chu Ning has shown absolute strength in two consecutive battles.
Li Song, who was falling behind, was looking at Chu Ning's back with complicated eyes.
When Chu Ning first appeared, he was a little wary. When Cheng Jinhe invited Chu Ning to join, Li Song was very worried.
After all, after the two had a small fight, he knew that he would never be this person's opponent.
So along the way, he was carefully observing Chu Ning.
Be wary of whether Chu Ning would get into trouble, which would make him ignore the other people.
But he didn’t expect that the five heroes of Montenegro were actually hiding in his own team. The five legendary thieves who were highly skilled in martial arts and killed many people.
In front of Chu Ning, there was no way to fight back.
Master! I have truly met an expert!
Along the way, the entire team became more and more respectful to Chu Ning.
At this time, Li Song naturally no longer mentioned recruiting others to supplement the team. After all, Chu Ning alone was enough.
The next two months were still not peaceful, and we encountered robbers several times along the way.
However, with the protection of Chu Ning, a "super master", naturally there were no accidents.
Something happened midway that made Chu Ning a little bit dumbfounded.
The deputy team leader Yao Song actually ran up to him and asked him to become his disciple, and he did so without saying a word.
Of course, this was directly rejected by Chu Ning.
But this man didn't give up at all and wanted to become a disciple for several days in a row.
In the end, Chu Ning finally gave up after he was annoyed and angry.
Along the way north, with Chu Ning clearing the obstacles, everyone in the team felt more at ease and walked faster.
We actually arrived at our destination five days earlier than originally planned.
Chun Ning refused Cheng Jinhe and Li Song's warm invitation to stay and left directly as soon as he arrived at his destination.
As for Cheng Jinhe's offer to pay six times the reward directly to Chu Ning, he did not refuse, but instead of asking for his gold and silver, he asked for a few pieces of fine jade.
Leaving the team, Chu Ning continued to go north and came to a place called Hushan Lake.
"This young hero, it's not that I don't want to go, you can go in other directions.
But keep going east, that is the land of the Immortal Family. If you don't tell me the specific location, I don’t dare to go.”
At a ferry in Hushan Lake, in front of Chu Ning, a boatman shook his head like a rattle.
Chun Ning did not force it, and directly took out a piece of silver, "Then boatman, how about you sell this boat to me?"
"Yes! Yes!"
The boatman immediately took it over happily.
Looking at Chu Ning’s leaving figure, the boatman immediately shook his head and murmured:
“It seems that he is another person who wants to seek immortality. I don’t know how many young people go there every year. , but I have never heard of anyone who can really get what he wants."
Chun Ning couldn't help but smile slightly when he heard this murmur from a distance.
Based on the information he had seen from Qingxi Sect before.
The place where Hukou Lake is located is known as Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands.
This large area, tens of thousands of miles in radius, is full of lakes and islands.
It’s just that among these islands, only 10% to 20% have spiritual energy, and the spiritual veins on the islands are low-level.
Most of them are first- and second-order spiritual veins, and their spiritual energy is far less dense than third-order spiritual veins like those in the Qingxia Mountains.
In terms of aura, it is comparable to the Qingxia Mountains near Yanjifang.
Coupled with the vast territory here, it is really difficult to manage.
So among the thousands of lakes and islands, there is not a single larger sect.
However, because there are indeed many spiritual veins nearby, many casual cultivators gradually gathered, and most of them divided their power around the island.
Later, some foundation-building monks appeared on the islands, and these foundation-building monks united to form the Thousand Island Alliance.
This Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands finally has an organization that manages it in name only.
Although this kind of management is undoubtedly extremely loose, if there are outside monks, everyone can still fight together.
But some small internal disputes are inevitable.
But fortunately, the spiritual vein golden elixir stage monks nearby really look down on it, so overall there is no big disturbance.
The reason why Chu Ning chose to come here is because there are many casual cultivators here, and it is easy to hide their identity among dragons and snakes.
Secondly, the one with the highest cultivation level in the Thousand Island Alliance is the foundation-building monk, which makes him feel more secure.
And another very important thing is that I heard that here, as long as you are willing to pay a certain amount of spiritual stones to the Thousand Island Alliance.
You can choose a place where the spiritual veins are located among the thousands of lakes and islands to settle down.
When all the conditions were met, Chu Ning had already set this place as his destination before leaving the sect.
And now, after more than three months of wandering, we finally arrived here.
“If the information I read from the Qingxi Sect is correct.
800 miles east of Hukou Lake, you can reach the first spiritual island among the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, Cai Qi Island. Kirishima.
If I fly with my weapon now, I can support it for 800 miles, but firstly, I am afraid that there are some taboos around here.
Secondly, it will consume a lot of my mana. It’s really not safe.”
This thought flashed through Chu Ning’s mind, and she slowly steered the boat towards Caiwu Island.
Arrived near here, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is stronger than that of the ordinary world.
Traveled a little further into the depths.
Looking around, you can see green mountains, green waters, and misty white mist, which makes it feel like a fairyland with a fairy spirit.
Chun Ning was overjoyed, and simply threw away the Zhang Qingfeng Talisman, blew the boat forward, and lay down.
Being among the mountains and rivers, I feel relaxed and at ease.
A few days later, not far from Chu Ning’s eyes, a small island filled with light colored mist appeared.
But Caiwu Island has arrived.
