Chapter 237 Disfigurement (Fifth Watch)
After Chu Li left the Duke's mansion, his appearance changed, and he turned into a vicissitudes of life youth who was nearly thirty years old. He looked stable and mature, bold and heroic, and he could tell at a glance that he was a tycoon in the martial arts world.
What he carried on his waist was not the Dust Light Sword, but a long knife instead.
Ten days later at noon, he arrived at the foot of the mountain where Xue Yuexuan was under the sun.
This is a steep and majestic peak, lush and green, like a green sword inserted into the ground, the mountain peak points straight to the sky like a sword tip, and the peak is covered by clouds and mist.
There is only one path up the mountain, which is difficult and dangerous, and only martial arts masters can climb it.
Chu separated his internal strength, his martial arts were at the innate level, and he pretended to be a tyrannical gangster. For such an age, he was already a martial arts hero with such a cultivation level, so he would not be underestimated.
Among the martial arts, those who have reached the realm of Tianwaitian at a young age can be counted with ten fingers. If you check it, you will know that it is too eye-catching and it is not a good thing for him.
He rode to the foot of the mountain and saw a small pavilion hidden by the woods.
In the kiosk sat two old men playing chess.
They look alike, one is skinny, the other is fat, like two brothers.
The two of them didn't seem to hear the sound of the horse's hooves, and they were playing chess intently.
Chu Li got off his horse, came to the small pavilion, clasped his fists and said in a low voice, "Seniors, is Xueyuexuan here?"
The two old men raised their heads lazily and looked him up and down.
The fat old man laughed, with few teeth left, he chuckled and said, "Young man, are you going to Xueyuexuan?"
"Exactly." Chu Li said.
"Report to the house, what do you want to go to Xueyuexuan?"
"Du Feng, my sister-in-law Du Qiu pays homage to Xueyuexuan, and I come to visit."
"Du Qiu?" The skinny old man next to him said, "That little girl who just joined the faction not long ago?"
"Sister She used to practice at home on her own, and she was a registered disciple. Not long ago, she was taken in by her teacher as a disciple and brought into Xueyuexuan."
"Well, it's her, let me ask." The fat old man nodded.
He picked up a pen and wrote a few words, rolled it up and put it in a bamboo tube, then sucked his lips and let out a long whistling sound, clearer and louder, straight into the sky.
A moment later, there was a long cry from the sky.
Chu Li looked up and saw a golden eagle swooping down.
From a small black spot, it came to the front in the blink of an eye, and turned into a giant eagle with a height of one person, with its wings stretched out, about four or five meters long.
The golden eagle is extremely lethal. Its two claws can crack steles and stones, and its peck can open human skulls. It is no match for ordinary acquired masters.
It swooped down with a gust of wind, flapped its wide and long wings, and landed on a pine tree in front of the small pavilion. The pine tree was bent, almost bent at the waist.
The fat old man fluttered up the treetops, and tied the bamboo tube to the eagle claws.
The golden eagle flapped its long and wide wings, rolled up the strong wind, and then soared into the air, and disappeared into the sky as a small black dot in the blink of an eye.
Chu Li sighed in admiration.
It would be nice to raise a golden eagle. He was a little envious, and thought of raising an eagle.
"You and Miss Du Qiu are biological brothers and sisters?"
"It's cousins."
"Well, no wonder."
They looked at Chu Li's appearance, so they asked this question.
After a while, the golden eagle chirped in the sky.
"Okay, you can go up the mountain." The two old men waved their hands.
Chu Li clasped his fists out of the small pavilion, and walked up the mountain along the path alone.
The path is getting steeper and steeper, and at the end, it is almost straight up and down, requiring the use of both hands and feet, and even weaker martial artists can't carry it.
Like a spirit ape, he moved up briskly, without stopping.
Climbing halfway up the mountain, the eyes suddenly opened up, and an open valley came into view.
Looking in from the mouth of the valley, the valley is covered with green grass, and there is a round lake in the center of the valley, like a huge mirror placed on the ground, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds.
On the clear lake is a water pavilion with winding wooden bridges and winding paths.
Around the valley, there are continuous pavilions built on the steep stone walls, with flying eaves and carved beams and painted buildings.
Chu Li praised, what a Xueyuexuan, it really is a famous spot in the martial arts.
There is a small pavilion in front of the entrance of the valley, a man in green is practicing sword, when he sees him coming, he draws his sword and greets him, cupping his fists: "But Du Shaoxia?"
Chu Li smiled and cupped his fists: "Du Feng came to pay a visit."
"Du Shaoxia, please follow me." The man in Tsing Yi looked at the long knife in Chu Li's waist, clasped his fists and smiled, and walked out of the small pavilion to lead the way.
Chu Li took a look at the man in Tsing Yi. He was a natural master, full of vigor and energy, shrewd and capable.
"Junior Sister Du lives on the water pavilion, let's go there." The man in Tsing Yi said, "I'm Shen Bai."
"Brother Shen, thank you." Chu Li said.
The two entered the valley, stepping on the thick and soft grass, the valley was as warm as spring, flowers were in full bloom, and there were flowers everywhere in the valley.
Chu Li was not in a hurry to activate Dayuan Jingzhi, so as not to be discovered by a master sitting in charge.
The two quickly set foot on the wooden bridge path on the lake. Chu Li had a keen sense and found that the lake was warmer, and the lake water was actually warm.
Shen Bai led Chu Li into a water pavilion.
This water pavilion is surrounded by white gauze curtains, and when a gust of wind blows, the curtains flutter, like a dream.
Shen Bai knocked on the door and said softly: "Junior Sister Du, a guest is here."
"Senior Brother Shen, who is it?" Suru's voice came from inside.
Chu Li said in a deep voice, "It's me."
Suru knew it was Chu Li as soon as she heard it, she was surprised: "Come in!"
Shen Bai pushed the door open and went in.
A herbal smell hits my face.
Chu Li frowned, and saw Suru who was covered by a white gauze.
Seeing Chu Li, Suru's expression flashed in surprise, and said calmly, "Why are you here!"
Chu Li said: "Little sister, I happened to pass by here on business, so I came up to have a look, what's going on, are you injured?"
Suru snorted, went into the bedroom and sat on the couch.
Shen Bai cupped his fists and said with a smile: "Talk first, I won't bother you."
"Thank you Senior Brother Shen." Suru said.
Shen Bai smiled and shook his head and walked out.
When he left, there were only two people left, Chu Li looked around the room.
The layout is simple, elegant and pleasant.
"Why did your face become like this?"
"Bone reduction surgery." Chu Li frowned at her: "What's the matter with the injury on the face?"
Suru touched her cheek and sighed, "I'm hurt!"
"Who did it?" Chu Li snorted.
Suru said lazily: "Qingmang Mountain."
"You just joined the sect, why did you fight with others?" Chu Li sat on the embroidered pier: "Where is Du Xia?"
Du Feng, Du Xia, Du Qiu, before the two daughters left, they overturned their original aliases and re-used them. Chu Li is Du Feng, the elder brother, Du Xia is the second sister, and Du Qiu is the younger sister.
When they left the Duke's Mansion, they would always address them by this name when they met. No one would have thought of such a fabricated identity, and it was enough to cover up their identities.
"Little...Second Sister is in retreat." Suru said, "Master retreats to heal his wounds, and let Second Sister do retreat with him."
"Enlightenment of Heaven and Beyond?" Chu Li said, "Is the teacher a man or a woman?"
"Hmph, of course it's a woman!"
"I'm afraid there will be scars on my face, which will disfigure my face."
"Who says it's not!" Suru patted the bed bitterly, gritted her teeth and said, "Feng Shaohua!"
Chu Li was surprised: "Feng Shaohua did it?"
Suru said bitterly: "This damned scum, I must kill him!... If Senior Sister Mo didn't sacrifice her life to save me, I would have been killed by him!"
