C3 Uninvited Guest

September 9th.

Yellow calendar: Nine days, sunny. It is advisable to move the soil, to erect beams and to sacrifice; it is forbidden to marry a member of the association.

The southwest outskirts of the city was the only way to Shaolin Temple. This place was surrounded by mountains, and the trees were verdant. Behind them was a thousand zhang precipice, and it was called 'Bone Crusher Cliff'. It was extremely steep. He had just looked at the five peaks of the breast. In fact, it was a good place to build a house and recuperate.

However, this was the location of Niu Yang Yamen!

The Niu Yang yamen was originally located in the most prosperous area of the town. Six years ago, Zhu Kai-shek, the current Prime Minister, wrote to ask to be relocated. As for why he moved to this place, even Master Shi Guan did not know what was going on. Since Master Diao had been stable, peaceful and well liked by the people, he quickly approved of the move. After the relocation, the Niuyang Yamen became much bigger and more luxurious than before.

Niu Yang City had been peaceful and peaceful for many years. There were almost no cases that occurred, and the commoners had no complaints. Therefore, these few years, the officials of the Niu Yang Yamen had enjoyed themselves to their heart's content. They were all glad that they had a good pregnancy and gave birth to a good child, mainly because they had a good master. Every day, besides drinking, he would gamble. In the evening, he would go to the "Drunken Flower Lodge" to have fun. Fortunately, Master Zhong only turned a blind eye to this and lived a happy life.

Today was an exception.

The entire yamen was heavily guarded, and even the city walls were filled with archers. More importantly, there were also 12 unfamiliar faces, faces that even the old officials who had worked here for ten years had never seen before. Qin Gang was one of them. On the first day of Master Diao's appointment, Qin Gang had arrived, and it was the guest room he had arranged for Master Diao. Of course, they would never be able to see their true faces, because they were all wearing black clothes and black pants, and there was also a black bamboo hat with a six inch long black veil hanging down the sides. Not only that, through the black veil, everyone's face was covered with a black cloth, and only a pair of black eyes could be seen.

Fortunately, he did not see it. Fortunately, he only saw a shadow flash past his head the day before and disappeared into the yamen. If it weren't for Master Diao ordering them to go to the guest room this morning to wash their faces, they really wouldn't have known that there would be twelve guests.

"Oh, this is too scary..." Qin Gang and his colleague Ah Bao were in charge of the gate guards.

"Do you know? I've never seen such a terrible look in my eyes in my life... "I don't want to see those eyes ever again …" Qin Gang turned his face sideways and whispered to Ah Bao. Fear was written all over his face, and he kept glancing towards the door, afraid that something would jump out from there.

"..." "Ugh …" "Eye of death, other than seeing death, I want to see nothing else with hope in those eyes …" Ah Bao stared at Qin Gang with his cross-eyed eyes full of fear, "…" Is True... Really? I'm not here to look for him... Master... Trouble? Heavens... Oh my god... Master... Yes... He's a good person... "Ugh …" "Ehh …" His voice was trembling, and he was no longer able to speak. He could only hear the gurgling sound of saliva sliding down his throat.

Passing through the yamen's lobby was the torture chamber. Next door was the guest room that Master Diao received. In Qin Gang's memory, other than the rooms that were visited every year by high ranking officials, these high ranking officials were called princes or eunuchs by Master Diao. It was only at this time that Master Diao would accompany the guests at the yamen all day.

The guest room was indeed exquisite. No matter how one sat inside, one would never be able to guess that they were staying in the yamen. Ancient furniture, exquisite tea set, four walls were similarly covered in calligraphy and paintings, and even the sign that was written as "Zhu Kaifeng" was extremely famous.

There were thirteen guests in the living room.

Master Diao was sitting. Sitting opposite of him was a middle-aged man dressed in green. He was in his mid-thirties, with sharp eyebrows, a long face, and a face that was very pleasing to the eye, except for the terrible scar that ran three inches from the corner of his right cheek to the side of his nose. Veins bulged on his temples and the back of his hand. His eyes were clear, but they were filled with a mysterious light. The ring on the ring finger of his right hand was very eye-catching. It was a shiny black ring, and on the ring, there was a red plum flower made from agate. It was as red as blood. A sheathless blade hung from his waist, a pitch-black blade … and it was a broken blade, a broken blade that was eight inches long, six inches wide, and three inches thick!

Behind the man in green, there were twelve men in black standing in a row by the window. They were all dressed the same, with the same physique. Even their height and weight were the same. His left hand was holding something that looked like a birdcage and was wrapped in a black cloth. However, each of them had a unique weapon in their right hand – a weapon so unique that it could not be found in the weapon manuals of the 'All Knowing Scholar'. The black bamboo hat, the six inch long black veil, the black cloth covering his face, the black eyes that could captivate souls — the deadly "Cold-Blooded Thirteen Shaw". Their existence really only made people smell the scent of death at the very first moment. It seemed like Qin Gang was speaking the truth. The name of the man in green probably meant that no one else in the world other than the people outside of the city could lead these twelve black devils.

There was only one thing that happened when the "Thirteen Cool Bloods Sorcery" appeared, and that was when one killed another.

Today, it was still unexpected. There were indeed many accidents today.

The Piercing Wind City was actually chatting with Master Diao and the city seemed very polite and cautious in front of Master Diao.

While Master Diao was drinking tea, Tu Feng City was also drinking tea. However, he seemed to be very anxious.

"Ninth Elder …" Look... "I've only been waiting for a single word from you from yesterday to this day, so that I can give my father-in-law an opportunity to report. Isn't this …"

After Tu Feng City placed the teacup down, it seemed that they couldn't sit still any longer. However, this was clearly Master Diao, so why was he called Master Jiu? And even had an uncle to it?

Master Diao took a sip of his tea, looked at the Twelve Shaos by the window, and then gestured to the city.

Tu Feng City paused for a moment and then immediately understood. He turned around and waved his hand. "Hidden Dragon, bring our brothers back to camp first. If anyone asks about this before I return, don't speak nonsense."

"Yes!" A black-clothed man in the middle took a step forward and saluted with one hand. He then turned around and waved his hand, leading the way as he flew out of the window. Soon after, eleven people flew out of the window one after another. Master Diao's fingers moved slightly.

"Mm …" "Come with me." After the man in black finished walking, Master Diao put down the tea cup and stood up, giving a signal to Tu Feng City. Then, he walked straight to a painting on the wall, which was a picture of Tang Yin's "Lying on the Cow". He tapped the cow's head with his middle finger, and after three squeaks, the wall suddenly turned ninety degrees, and an entrance to the secret room appeared in front of him.

The Piercing Wind City was right behind him. However, Master Diao had twisted a steel ring on the wall, and the door then closed and returned to its original state. Tu Feng City was very surprised. "I didn't expect Ninth Master to be so resourceful!" Master Diao turned his head and smiled, but did not reply. After that was a man-made cave, which went down two hundred steps and arrived in front of a stone door. In the middle of the stone door was carved a large peach, only to see Master Diao's right leg slightly bent, while his left hand was placed on the peach. Fortunately, white steam slowly rose from between his fingers, and suddenly he opened both sides of his finger, and the stone door slowly slid open on both sides with a "Ga Ga" sound. When Tu Feng City saw the stone door, they were extremely shocked. The two doors were made of granite six or seven feet thick, and each of them weighed at least two to three thousand pounds. If they looked carefully, there was no mechanism. This skill really shocked him. It seemed that it was impossible for an ordinary person to enter this stone room!

Entering the stone room shocked the Piercing Wind City even more.

He would never have thought that there would be such a place in the yamen.

The entire stone chamber was made of white marble.

As soon as he entered the house, Tu Feng City couldn't help but shudder. It was incredibly cold inside! Only now could he see a transparent room in the center of the room. He could even see what looked like a bed inside the room. Curiosity impelled him to step forward and touch it. It was ice! Heavens! There was actually ice here! It's still not going to melt!

"A cold jade bed!" "The Wind Slaying City cannot help but blurt out." This was something from the Heaven Mountain! How to... Ninth Master, you … Good stuff … "Un, good stuff!"

Master Diao turned his head to look, but continued to smile without saying a word.

"Come here, the item is here."

Tu Feng City was completely engrossed in it. When they heard his call, they turned around to look. At some point in time, Master Zhong had opened a door beside them. He quickly walked over and looked inside. His mouth was wide open, but he didn't say anything for a long time. This was a very small stone room. It wasn't big, but it was very tall. It was full of weapons, not ordinary weapons! In the middle of the room, there was a large stove filled with fine sand. Within the sand, there were five swords. Looking at the five swords, the Piercing Wind City was truly shocked once again. He was not interested in weapons, but he was extremely interested in the owners of the weapons. What surprised him was not the number of weapons that he possessed, but how he had obtained the five swords. Looking at these swords, he could not help but think of how he had wanted to take one of them, but even now he had not taken half a sword, and his left hand was slowly caressing his face, supporting the scar. Even now, the scar was still aching, it was no longer painful, but his heart was very painful, even if his brother did not rescue him in time, he might have died a long time ago on one of these swords.

Tu Feng City looked at the swords carefully. "Qing Qian..." Competitor... Sun and Moon... Heavenly Waterfall … "Sacrifice …" After a long while, he suddenly thought of something.

"Eh? And 'don't ask' and 'Wandering Dragon'? "

"Yes, that's right. Actually, I'm just short of one. That's the Wandering Dragon Sword Technique." Master Diao said to the Wind Slaying City with a smile.

"But …" Before Tu Feng City could finish its words, it was cut off by Master Diao.

"Because the 'Mortal Sword' is by my side."

"Hmm?" There was no solution to the problem at Slaughtering Wind City.

"It's on Leng Lingfeng, my right-hand man, haha …" "Haha …" Master Diao's face was filled with satisfaction.

"You should go back and tell the eunuch not to worry. I'll naturally bring the seven swords to him as a birthday present …"

"But …"

"En!" [Don't even mention that it has been ten years since I last spoke to him. I have been working hard all day and night. If he isn't satisfied, he can just pick someone else to take on this task …] "To be honest, if I hadn't agreed to be entrusted by my father-in-law that year, I wouldn't have come to accept this suffering …"

Slaughtering Wind City followed Master Diao to the stone room outside. Master Diao opened another door and came out. There was only a large platform. Below the platform was the cliff — Bone Crusher Cliff! On the opposite side, Shaowang Mountain and Five Fingers Peak seemed to be within reach.

"Second brother …" Master Diao's right hand patted Tu Feng City's shoulder and his expression suddenly became serious as he spoke sincerely and sincerely to Tu Feng City.

"It's been so many years. Ai, I don't think you need to fawn on eunuch anymore. I've watched him do things every day. There should be a place for you …"

Tu Feng City's face was filled with astonishment as he stared at Master Diao in a daze. It was as if he did not believe Master Diao's words.

"Even if it wasn't for yourself, you still had to think about it for Xiao Mei Er. Sigh, what an enemy …"

Hearing this, it was as if a knife had stabbed into the heart of the Piercing Wind City, causing their faces to contort in pain. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"I think it's time for us three brothers to work together again. If we were to obtain that item, why would we be afraid of Eunuch Wei?"

"You can go back first, and think carefully and calmly. After all these years, didn't we just hope for that day to come? "It's getting late, I won't keep you any longer …"

The Wind Slaying City seemed to have slowly returned to reality from a distant era. Looking out of the window, he saw that night had gradually fallen.

"En, alright then. Elder brother, take care of yourself. This little brother will first inform you so that I can come visit you another day." With a change in the official etiquette, Tu Feng City clasped his hands together. Then, he lifted his right arm and slipped out of the platform. With one foot touching the cliff, he disappeared from the cliff in the blink of an eye.

"As expected of the 'Silver Swallow Plum Blades'. I didn't expect that Second Brother's martial arts would increase by another level …." Master Diao's eyes showed approval.

"Sigh, it's really fate that made a fool of people … "It's really destiny that makes a fool of us …"

The night was approaching. Master Diao raised his head. The Five Fingers Peak across from him was filled with the light of dusk. It seemed that he was gradually falling into a peaceful and serene sleep under the light of the setting sun.

A light wind blew, and an evening bell rang out from the mountain. It was long and melodious, rippling through the valley for a long time.

"I wonder how third brother is doing now. He should be back soon, right?" Master Diao seemed to be deep in thought as he faced the distant mountains.

On the horizon, a line of egrets was returning to their nest under the cover of night …
