The Fragrant Shadow of A Sword

Chapter 4

Le Shao said,"At a lake in the desert,I met a person. The person held Xiao. It was strange that I felt that he was right in front of me,but I couldn't see his person."

Guan Changfeng said,"Will you hear the sound of the vertical bamboo flute?"

Lemidine added,"How do you know that,big brother?"

Guan Changfeng said,"He is the Palace Head of Azure Lake Palace,Lonely Goose. Of course,the few neighbors will not be able to see him."

Le said next to him,"No wonder you couldn't see through him. We didn't even exchange three moves with him back then."

Guan Changfeng said,"Have you ever fought with him?"

Lemidine replied,"Yes! He didn't use his full strength. Otherwise,I wouldn't have been able to take even one move."

"Don't talk about you. Even I can't beat him within ten moves."

Lemidine said,"Big brother is no match for him,either."

Guan Changfeng said,"Legend has it that when Lonely Goose fights with others,he never uses weapons,but his body has never been separated from Xiao."

Lemidine said,"No wonder!"

Guan Changfeng said,"I think you've also heard of three extraordinary people in the world. They are Xiao Daoran,Dongfang Xu,and among them,Dongfang Xu is the most mysterious."

Young Master Le said next to him,"My teacher once told me."

The dark night was about to pass. Dawn was about to arrive,and the dark aura of Mo Manor seemed to be haunting them. It was also as if Mo Jianhui had died unjustly and refused to leave. The dead silence of the night was frightening.

"It's almost dawn. Let's go!"

"Where are you going,big brother?" Young Master Le asked,

Guan Changfeng shook his head. "If you travel all over the world,you can find the murderer by the way."

"Where are you going,brother?" Guan Changfeng asked.

"I don't know yet! I want to see if I can find Qiu Yi. If I can't find her,I'll go back to Zhongyuan." Le's neighbor said,

"Oh,it turns out that you're still a passionate one." Guan Changfeng laughed.

"Don't make fun of me,big brother. It's just that she came with me. Now that I have lost news of her,I feel guilty. I can't even protect a woman. How can I find my brother?" Le Shao said.

"Don't be discouraged,Brother. Once we meet at the end of the world,we will definitely find Miss Qiu Yi." Guan Changfeng said.

Young Master Le gazed into the distance and thought,"Qiu Yi,where exactly are you?"

"Brother Xian,why don't you go with me? We can take care of each other. One is to look for Miss Qiu Yi,and the other is to find the murderer," Guan Changfeng said.

"That's good." Le said.

When it was almost dawn,the two of them jumped up and disappeared into the night sky.

When Qiu Yi woke up,she found herself lying on the bed. There was nothing beside her,only a stone table. Qiu Yi remembered that she was scared that night,and now she was still afraid. She saw that everyone in Mo Manor was running like crazy. She saw someone digging out their hearts,spleen,lungs and liver. She couldn't see them anymore,so she flew over and wanted to kill the man immediately.

When Qiu Yi was about to approach the man,the man suddenly turned around and looked at Qiu Yi. The man's face was so lusterless,and his face looked terrifying.

At this moment,Qiu Yi stumbled over something beneath her feet and immediately fainted. When the man saw Qiu Yi,his eyes turned green and he immediately threw himself at her. At this time,a person passed by,picked up Qiu Yi and left. A sentence came from afar,"Don't be too arrogant." "That person just stood there in a daze. He was hit in the acupoint."

Qiu Yi got out of bed and walked out of the cave. When she saw it,she almost fainted. She thought,"This cave is actually in the middle of the cliff. The cliff is at least 30,feet tall,Qiu Yi has retreated back into the cave. I was shocked again. A man in a white robe stood in front of her,as if he appeared out of nowhere,like a ghost. Qiu Yi didn't even notice him."

Qiu Yi said coldly,"Who are you?! What is this place?"

The woman said,"I saved you. Of course,I won't harm you."

Qiu Yi thought,"It's over. I don't know where Young Master Le is!"

The woman asked,"Are you feeling better,young lady?"

Qiu Yi said,"Did you see my friend when you saved me that night?"

The woman said,"Is he a young man?"

Qiu Yi replied,"Yes."

The person said,"I didn't see it. There's no emotion in that person's tone. It's as cold as ice.

Qiu Yi said,"You haven't told me who you are? What is this place?"

The man said,"I'll tell you when the time comes. Take good care of yourself. I'll come every five days." After that,he disappeared.

Qiu Yi shouted,"Hey,don't go!"

The woman replied,"You'll find out in the future,Miss. There's dried rations in the neighboring room..."

Qiu Yi sat on the edge of the bed with melancholy. She thought of the environment of Le Shao and murmured,"It's okay. He's so good at Kung Fu."

After two days of journey,Liu Hai and He Dacheng finally arrived at Mo Manor. They saw that the gate was open,and there was no one inside,and it was a bit stinky,making them want to vomit. They hurried to the hall,and what they saw shocked them. There were bodies everywhere,and their hearts and other organs were gone.

They looked around and saw that Hao Ran was the head of Mo Jianhui in the middle of the hall. They looked at each other and realized that Mo Manor had been destroyed.

Liu Hai asked,"Who did it?"

He Dacheng said,"Brother Liu,don't you feel strange? You killed him and took his organs away."

Liu Hai said,"If you didn't tell me,I wouldn't have forgotten. Who is so cruel?"

He Dacheng said,"Brother Liu,let's leave now."

Liu Hai said,"Let's see if we can find any clues." Then he searched the whole manor.

He Dacheng asked,"Didn't you find him?"

Liu Hai nodded his head.

"It seems that this is a conspiracy,and it was planned long ago." He Dacheng said.

"What's Brother He's opinion?" Liu Hai asked.

"We'd better find out who's behind it." He Dacheng said,

"I agree with Brother He." Liu Hai said,

The two of them looked at the tragic scene and then left.

At this time,the situation in Jianghu rose again.

###Chapter3,The Lord of Desires is actually tearing his eyes off!

Before they knew it,Qiu Yi had already been in the cave for half a month. The man came every five days. Every time Qiu Yi asked him if he had seen Young Master Le. The man said no and Qiu Yi didn't ask anymore.

Every day,Qiu Yi faced the distant desert and sand,watching as the sun rose and fell.

Whenever Qiu Yi had nothing to do,she would meditate and train. From time to time,she would even use her finger as a sword to train in the sword arts. Qiu Yi did not train in a lot of sword arts,but all of them had sealed off the opponent's movements. She also felt that her own power was not deep,and could not unleash its full potential,so she worked hard to train in the internal power.

The man still came to the cave every five days. He asked Qiu Yi carefully how her body was recovering,but Qiu Yi didn't say anything.

This time,the person still appeared out of thin air. He saw Qiu Yi practicing martial arts and did not disturb her. Instead,he walked to the edge of the cliff and stared blankly into the distance.

Suddenly,a gentle and slow flute sound floated in,which made people feel that the flute sound had merged into one and the autumn feeling was moved. Because she felt the same as Xiao Yin who listened to the music by the lake. She also felt the sadness and deep affection in the flute sound. She knew that the person must have something on his mind.

Qiu Yi asked,"When did you come?"

The man said flatly,"He's here when you're practicing your skills!"

"I don't know. Fortunately,she is not a bad person,otherwise,even if she has ten lives,she will die!"

Qiu Yi said,"From your Xiao Yin,you seem to be saying something,but at the same time,you seem to really miss someone."

The man sighed,"You can hear it. It's hard to find a bosom friend!"

The woman said,"You are the second person who can recognize me,Xiao Yin."

Qiu Yi asked,"Who's the first one?"

The man replied serenely,"I've never seen her again since she left!"

Qiu Yi said,"To be able to recognize you,Xiao Yin,must be your confidante!"

The man looked up at the sky and sighed. "It's a pity that she's not here."

Qiu Yi asked,"Who the hell are you?"

The man slowly said,"Desolate Goose of Azure Lake."

Qiu Yi exclaimed,"You are Lonely Goose!"

Lonely Goose said,"How come I don't look like one."

Qiu Yi replied,"Legend has it that Lonely Goose is ruthless and kills people like fire."

Lonely Goose said,"Could it be that in the eyes of the martial arts practitioners of the Central Plains,I'm that evil?"

Qiu Yi nodded.

Lonely Goose asked,"Then what do you think?"

Qiu Yi said,"I don't think you are like the legend."

Lonely Goose said,"It doesn't matter what others think. This includes you,as long as you are worthy of the world."

Qiu Yi said,"Oh!"

Lonely Goose said,"You'll understand in the future."

The color of the sky gradually blurred as the howls of wolves could be heard from afar. The night came and went quickly.

Lonely Goose said,"I saw that you were practicing the great art of zither heart just now. I wonder if that's true or not?"

Qiu Yi was dumbfounded. "How did you know?"

Lonely Goose said,"I can tell with just a glance that all the martial arts under the heavens are under my control."

"Practicing this art must be done step by step,and cannot be forced. Do you understand?"

Qiu Yi said,"My teacher once warned me not to practice by force."

"Alright,you can leave here tomorrow. The exit on the left side of the cave is to find the person you're looking for. The world is so big,and there are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Don't be arrogant." After saying this,Lonely Wild Goose disappeared under the night sky like a shooting star.

Qiu Yi muttered,"The world is so big,where can we find him?"

On the second day,Qiu Yi saw a stone door on the left,but she found that she could not open it no matter how hard she tried. She saw an inconspicuous mechanism on the right,so she pressed the mechanism and opened the door. Nothing could be seen inside. Qiu Yi walked down the door. Although it was very dark and there was almost no light coming in,she could still see it.

After an hour,she finally reached the foot of the mountain. Qiu Yi was shocked when she saw it. The scene in front of her really surprised her.

This was an oasis with a river flowing across it. She seemed to have returned to the Central Plains. She thought,

She walked along the riverbank,and it was another world. There was a village here,which seemed to be a ethnic group. Qiu Yi didn't want to disturb them,so she jumped over and landed on the other side of the river.

She gazed into the distance at this peaceful village,walking towards the great desert.

On the third day,Qiu Yi came to the original small town to see if she could meet Young Master Le here,but she walked for a long time and didn't see a single person. Occasionally,when she saw a person,she would ask.

"Uncle,have you seen a man with a medium-sized figure in a white suit?" Qiu Yi said while making a gesture,

"Young lady,I've never seen him before."

"Oh,thank you,uncle!"

"Young lady,you should leave this place quickly!" The old man said.

"Why?" Qiu Yi asked.

"It's nothing!" The old man hurriedly left after saying that.

"What on earth happened?" Qiu Yi thought.

"Will he go back to the Central Plains?" Qiu Yi thought and immediately headed for the way she came.
