Chapter 157 Fragrance

The world of swords.

Makino’s Online Rogue has once again come to the Cloud Sea Sword Sect.

He hasn't been here for a while. After the thief followed Xiang Fei all the way to Jinzhou, the thief didn't leave until King Jin of Haizhou fought with Jinzhou and Xiang Fei left.

During that time, I mainly played the plot with King Qin in Canglong Mountain, and there was no Rogue Online for a while.

The current branch of Rogue is to develop a relationship with Xuan Nu and practice Xuan Nu’s Heart Sutra to perfection.

In addition, Luo Jianshou has been in retreat, so there are naturally fewer roles.

On the other hand, Demon Sealers will basically check it out if they can. After all, the Demon Sealers have been following Kuo Yujun and have already reached Haizhou.

The leadership of the army all depends on Han Qi. As the general, he only needs to make decisions occasionally and refine some talismans from time to time to improve his proficiency.

After walking up to the Yunhai Sword Sect, Makino saw many soldiers wearing Kuoyu Army uniforms, with one sentry every five steps and one post every ten steps.

In this formation, it must be Mrs. Yun who came to the Yunhai Sword Sect.

Makino thought for a moment, and instead of taking the main entrance, he walked up from the cliff at the back.

Returning to the original Sword Burial Cave, we once again came to the inner hall of the Yunhai Sword Sect. The inner hall was empty at this time, and no one explained that Luo Jianshou was probably not out of seclusion yet. After leaving the main hall, there were many soldiers of the Kuo Yu Army around. Some were communicating with the disciples of the Yunhai Sword Sect, and some were guarding the entrance to the Sword Sect's backyard.

Two of the Four Swordsmen of the Sea of ​​Clouds were also among them.

"Looking at the situation...Mrs. Yun must be here to see Little Heroine?"

Makino thought about it in the inner hall, has the little heroine come out of seclusion?

What about her master?

Didn't he say that he would wait until he came out of seclusion and practice the last three levels of the Xuan Nu Heart Sutra with him?

Makino sneaked into the backyard of the Sword Sect and followed the guards of Kuo Yujun to the cliff of the back mountain.

This place is Luo Jianshou's daily resting place. If he comes out of seclusion, he will definitely be here.

When he came here at this moment, Makino did not see Luo Jianshou. But he saw two of the four swords kneeling on one knee in front of a figure.

"When did this happen?"

The figure frowned.

"A few days ago..."

"A few days ago? Why didn't you stop her!" the figure said angrily, "Xiaochan had just lost her cultivation before, but now she has just come out of seclusion and has some strength. How could she follow her master to such a dangerous demon lair? ?”

"Mrs. Yun, it's not that we won't stop her. We can't stop her..." Ren Jian Xiao Yueshan said helplessly, "As soon as my junior sister comes out of seclusion, her strength has far surpassed mine. We can't even use our swords in front of her. She wants to leave, we really can’t stop her!”

The figure pondered for a moment, frowned and said:

"What exactly is going on? How could you, Luo Jianshou, leave the Sword Sect? I heard that she was seriously injured before, right?"

"Master's injury has been cured..." Xiao Yueshan said, "After being released from seclusion for several months, I stayed in the Sword Sect for more than ten days. Later, someone at the foot of the mountain sent a letter to the master. After reading it, the master said that she wanted to Leave the Sword Sect for a while. If anyone comes looking for her, tell her that her internal injuries have not healed and she is already dead. There is no need to look for her again."

"..." A human figure.

"Master, how could you say this?" Mrs. Yun was a little surprised, "It sounds like you are angry with someone?"

"But our master is a world-famous leader of swordsmanship, and his martial arts knowledge is so profound, how can he be angry with others?" Mrs. Yun shook her head, "Does she have any enemies? She is just doing this to confuse her enemies. Ordered?"

"We don't know either." Xiao Yueshan said helplessly, "Master's order, we can only say this. Later, after the junior sister was released from seclusion, we...we could only talk as usual. The junior sister didn't believe it after hearing it, so she only said what the master said. It's just that her veins are damaged, wait until she goes to find the Heart-Building Fruit, and the Water Heart Grass will come back to heal the Master."

"So, junior sister went down the mountain."

"Then...where did your master go?" Madam Yun asked.

Xiao Yueshan shook his head.

Makino listened for a while and sighed in his heart.

Unexpectedly, both of them came out of seclusion. Not only did they come out of seclusion, they also left Yunhai Sword Sect.

According to Xiao Yueshan, Luo Jianshou left after receiving a letter.

"Could it be that the big devil Duguxia is up to something again?"

Why, you want to repeat the same trick again, ask Luo Jianni to fight, and then capture her?

No way, with the same strategy, if Luo Jian was hit once, he wouldn't be hit a second time.

Besides, there is no motive. The purpose of doing this before was to bring down the Yunhai Sword Sect and cause internal strife among the various sects in the world.

Now that Yunzhou has been occupied and the martial arts sects from all over the country have been unified, there is no reason to do this, right?

"I will send troops to the two demon lairs of Crocodile Dragon Marsh and Nanxiang Shuizhe to look for Xiaochan." Mrs. Yun thought for a moment and said, "But your master is hard to find. There is not even the slightest information. It is really impossible to find. I Try to send people to find out about her..."

Xiao Yueshan opened his mouth, nodded, bowed and said:

"Thank you, Mrs. Yun."

Mrs. Yun nodded slightly, walked to the back cliff, turned and left.

Makino looked at Mrs. Yun's much slimmer figure in the dark. He probably finally found some time to see his daughter...

"This little heroine is real. She comes out of seclusion as soon as she comes out of seclusion. Why is she running around..."

It's a deep relationship between master and disciple.

The same goes for you, master. Your injury has obviously healed, why didn’t you tell others? But I left such a misleading sentence.

It is estimated that in Luo Jianshou's opinion, it may take a few years for the little heroine to complete the Xiantian Wuji Sword Sutra, and it is impossible for her to get out of seclusion so soon.

I didn't expect this little heroine to be so talented.

After Mrs. Yun left, Makino walked out.

"Are you...the senior rogue?"

Without the master of the Sword Sect, Xiao Yueshan, the eldest disciple, handles all affairs.

Makino coughed and said:

"Senior, I have an appointment with your master. I heard what you just said when I came here. I just want to ask, your master, when you left... did you notice anything different?"

Xiao Yueshan knew in his heart that the mysterious thief who came forward at the beginning was his master's best friend, so he did not dare to hide anything. He thought for a long time before saying:

"I remembered that when the master left, he not only took the Qiuyue Sword with him, but also took the Chunyang Sword with him."

"Chunyang?" Makino was startled, "Chunyang's sword is incomplete. Why did she take away an incomplete sword?"

"Could it be that she wants to recast this Chunyang Sword?"

Xiao Yueshan was stunned for a moment, then said with great joy:

"It's possible! Qiuyue Chunyang is a pair of magical weapons of our Yunhai Sword Sect. With Master's sense of responsibility, she will definitely not see the broken sword remaining, and will definitely try her best to repair it. And these two swords Divine weapons can only exert their strongest power when they are together."

Hearing this, Mu Ye suddenly understood.

The reason why Luo Jianshou left has been deduced.

That letter was most likely sent by the great devil Dugu Xia. Of course, it could also be Luo Jianshou's other opponents.

Does she want to recast these two swords to better deal with Dugu Xia or other opponents?

Although the injury to Luo Jianshou's heart was cured by himself using the elixir from the world of immortality. But Xuannu's Heart Sutra has not yet reached perfection, and it is difficult to improve her own strength, so she can only work hard on weapons?

The Chunyang Sword is made of special meteorites.

In fact, they are made of mineral materials that contain spiritual power, and there are quite a few of them in the world of immortality.

But in the sword world, it's hard to find.

Generally, places like this are often occupied by demons nowadays.

"Senior, wait!"

Xiao Yueshan seemed to have thought of something and rushed out immediately.

After burning the incense, Xiao Yueshan came back with an ancient drawing in his hand:

"Senior, this is the drawing left behind when I sent the ancestor to build it. It only records the materials of Chun Yang Qiu Yue."

"Take a look, can you see any clues?"

Makino took it and took a look.

It does not fully record the forging method of the two swords, but only vaguely records the style of the swords and the source of the materials obtained.

According to the clues on the drawing, the fine iron used to cast the Chunyang Sword was near Tianyang Volcano in the northwest.

The world-famous legendary demon lair, Crocodile Dragon Marsh, is a hundred miles south of Tianyang Volcano.

That place was quite strange. The surrounding temperature was very high, but a thermal swamp was born not far away.

Mortals who enter it will be steamed by the scorching heat within a few days.

Especially that place, there is a special heat. If a mortal inhales this hot air, he will be poisoned by a special scorching poison, and his body functions will collapse rapidly, and he will be dead in a matter of seconds.

Only a martial artist who has opened his divine orifice can quickly dissipate the heat of that place and adapt to the heat by relying on his powerful inner strength of the divine orifice and his own characteristics.

It is said that there is rare underground magma under the volcano. The upwelling of the magma met the underground water, and the explosion produced a large amount of hydrothermal gas, forming a unique landform. Later, as the years changed, demons were born.

The demon absorbed the exploding water vapor and not only adapted to the environment of that place, but also gained the ability to control flames and swallow steam.

The famous Crocodile Dragon King is the strongest among the batch of demons born.

The number of years he lived was shorter than that of the Dragon Demon King, but his strength was far inferior.

And it occupies a unique terrain and environment, and it is the king and hegemony within a hundred miles.

"Tianyang Volcano is at the junction of Qizhou and Yunzhou... it is located in the northwest... Although it is snowing season over there in Jingzhou, it is still very hot and hot over there..."

After deducing the situation, Makino did not hesitate. After leaving the Yunhai Sword Sect, he directly took out the map and drove the flying boat towards the Tianyang Volcano area.

For some reason, Makino always felt that Dugu Xia was hindering Luo Jianshou's departure!

It's pure intuition.

——

Jingzhou, Tianchi Mountain.

"Your Majesty, according to the spies' report... Shen Qingchan, the junior sister of Yunhai Sword Sect, left the Sword Sect... and went to Crocodile Dragon Marsh."

"Where's Luo Jianshou?"

"I don't know, but depending on the situation, he should have left. Lord, your letter has had an effect."

On the top of Tianchi Mountain, Dugu Xia looked at the cloud-covered snow-capped mountains in the distance, with a smile on his stern face, "She Luo Jianshou's spirit is not ordinary. She suffered a hidden loss in my hands at the beginning, but now she won't He won’t get his place back.”

"It's just that I heard that her injuries have recovered after she came out of seclusion this time. Tsk tsk... Our demon sect has records that there is a peerless magical skill recorded in the Qiuyue Sword. Once it is completed, it is said that it can cure any injury."

"Even my heart-destroying strength can be restored...it's really amazing."

"There is such a magical divine orifice and true martial arts?"

"Of course there is." Dugu Xia suddenly sneered, "But have I heard that the strange thing about this magical skill is that it cannot be practiced by one person. Only one man and one woman can practice it at the same time, so it is possible for yin and yang to complement each other."

"Ah? So, that Luo Jianshou, is he looking for a man?"

"It's not necessarily...it's just that she will not let me go after she recovers from her injuries." Duguxia said lightly, "It's just that now that she has obtained the Chunyang Sword, she will not come to fight with me alone. She will definitely use this divine sword After the soldiers are repaired and they have enough weapons, they can compete with me again."

"But how did she know that my target this time is not her..."

Duguxia's eyes flashed with a fierce look, which disappeared in an instant, "By the way, how is Mr. Ji's situation in the palace?"

"The situation is very good..." the maid on the side happily reported, "Perhaps it is a coincidence that when Concubine Xiang entered the capital, the Queen Mother valued her and was able to enter and leave the Tianwu Pavilion. After Mr. Ji entered the palace, he quickly contacted Concubine Xiang. And... "

"And how?"

"According to the reports from our spies in the palace... Even though Concubine Xiang entered the capital and became a noble concubine, she is still very affectionate towards Mr. Ji..."

Hearing this, Duguxia was silent for a moment.

"Lord, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, his ability is quite impressive." Dugu Xia squinted his eyes, gently picked up a snowflake with his hand, put it on his fingertips and rubbed it gently, "The power in the inner courtyard of the palace cannot separate the relationship between Xiang Fei and him. "

"Tell me, does this Xiang Fei have a brain problem?"

The maid vaguely noticed that the Lord seemed to be in a bad mood, but at this time she could only bite the bullet and said, "There must be something wrong with the brain! Anyway, after the Lord gets the Hell Sky Sutra, Mr. Ji will be your person." Yes, we will definitely stay together."

"What is a fragrant concubine?"

"Hahaha..." Duguxia laughed a few times and said, "You silly girl, do you think that I really value a mere man? You are even jealous of another woman because of it?"

"That...of course it's absolutely impossible." The maid said.

Duguxia shook his head slightly and said calmly:

"Let's go and set off for Crocodile Dragon Pond. Since their master and apprentice are gone, I have no choice but to capture Luo Jianshou's apprentice first."

"Luo Jianshou, Luo Jianshou, you can't believe that my purpose this time has been changed."

——

Northwest, Qizhou, Tianyang Volcano.

"This place looks like the Flame Mountain..." Makino looked from mid-air and could only see an endless stretch of red mountains.

The tallest one was shaped like a ring, with streams of light-colored water rising up into thick smoke, making the air full of darkness.

From here on, there is no one around.

Not far away, there is a piece of light red grass, and occasionally you can see hot fire bubbles.

Makino could clearly feel the heat even in mid-air.

"The environment in this place is a bit dangerous. It seems that some spiritual mines can indeed be produced..."

It's just that it's really difficult to find people in a place like this.

Looking from mid-air, the fog was too heavy and the vision was blurry. So Makino had no choice but to lower the flying boat and fly at low altitude...

After flying for a while, Makino could vaguely smell a subtle smell of blood.

Following the smell, Makino found many demon corpses with blood flowing into rivers.

"Judging from the wounds, he has been dead for several days, and there are sword marks on them. It seems that they were caused by Luo Sword Head... but the blood is still warm..."

Makino swept the battlefield and was sure that Luo Jianshou must be here.

"etc…"

Suddenly, Makino walked to the corner, looked at a small pool of light red blood, and sniffed it gently, "This is human blood... The energy of its essence and blood has not dissipated, and it is even constantly attracting demons to come closer... Fifth grade The essence and blood of the Grand Master..."

"injured?"

Makino frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and took out the star compass, intending to try it to see if it could find someone quickly...
