in the night.

Yunsongzi stood there for a long time.

Yun Songzi couldn't help but sighed at the thought that the man and the woman were able to meet the owner of the blacksmith's shop with just the words "The sky wants snow in the evening".

Snow City today is really not easy!

...

In the courtyard behind the blacksmith shop.

The lanterns hang high, and the shadows of the lights sway in the night.

When he saw the young robed youth walking in like a leisurely court, the cloth-robed man was startled, his eyes slightly strange.

As for You Xue, who followed behind Su Yi, the cloth-robed man didn't care too much.

"This place is still the same as before, depressing, dull, and boring."

Su Yi glanced around and looked at the cloth-robed man.

An unprecedented smile appeared on the unsmiling face of the cloth-robed man, and said, "It is better to remain unchanged and respond to changes than to follow the trend."

Saying that, he made a gesture of invitation, "Sit."

Su Yi naturally sat opposite the cloth-robed man.

Youxue was standing on the side of her. This girl with a cold and arrogant temperament was rarely a little cautious at this time.

Because from the moment she entered this old courtyard, she felt an indescribable sense of depression.

Don't go away, don't let go.

And the one who brought this invisible sense of depression was the man in the cloth robe!

His figure is thin, his sitting posture is straight, his temperament is like a cold iron, and he has an intangible charm that is immortal.

When people see him for the first time, it is like facing not a person, but a lonely mountain standing in the vast world, looking down on the passage of time and fearless of the ups and downs of the world.

Youxue itself is transformed by the spirit of the artifact, and has the most sensitive sense of qi.

She realized right away that this middle-aged cloth robe is a very scary character!

Su Yi knocked on the wooden table: "Where's the wine?"

Seeing Su Yi being so rude, the burly young man who had also entered the courtyard couldn't help but said, "My master never drinks, how could there be alcohol?"

The cloth-robed man waved his hand and said, "Acheng, you are wrong, I only have a drink with those who can be seen."

Saying that, he flipped his hands, took out a jar of wine and two wine glasses, and said, "Do you still remember this jar of wine?"

Su Yi laughed, showing nostalgia, and said, "So you still keep it."

Back then, when he came back from the city of the dead, he had a hard drink with the cloth-robed man, and he also sighed that life is like a reverse journey.

And this jar of wine was what Su Yi had left.

The cloth-robed man opened the wine jar that had been dusty for many years, poured a glass for Su Yi and himself, and then said, "I know you will come back, so I keep it."

He raised his glass and drank it.

Su Yi smiled and drank all the wine in his glass.

The two talked and drank each other, plain and casual, but it felt like a pair of old friends reunited after a long absence, without any estrangement or alienation.

You Xue was stunned, and she became more and more curious, who is this man in cloth robe who can sit and drink with Sword Master Xuan Jun.

The burly young man was stunned there.

He couldn't imagine how a young man in a robe could become old friends with his master.

What is even more incredible is that although the master looks as unsmiling as before, everyone can feel that he is very happy!

"I remember you once said that in this life and this life, you will not accept apprentices, but how can you break your promise?"

Su Yi said.

This sentence made the heart of the burly young man nervous.

But the man in the cloth robe said: "This

It is probably the predestined law. In the past years, I have seen countless geniuses and geniuses of all kinds in Xuecheng on this day, but Acheng alone has the roots that can inherit my lineage. "

After a pause, he continued: "If it's just like that, it's fine. It won't make me think of accepting an apprentice. The key is that this kid Acheng is very similar to me when I was young."

Su Yi looked at the burly and tall Acheng again, and frowned, "Where does it look like?"

Acheng was a little uncomfortable and scratched his head.

The cloth-robed man said, "Don't you think he's very honest?"

honest?

Su Yi was startled, and couldn't help laughing, "You said you were honest when you were young?"

Acheng's cheeks flushed, and he said, "Guest, what's so ridiculous."

The cloth-robed man said indifferently, "What I'm talking about is to be honest on the road, to be ingenious, and to be ignorant. Only with such a disposition can I inherit my mantle."

Su Yi nodded. The first time he saw Acheng, he also saw that this young man seemed to be simple and honest, but the inner connotation of Shenhua and the solid Taoism were indeed far from ordinary.

He asked casually, "By the way, who was that demon monk just now?"

The cloth-robed man said: "A long time ago, he was the patriarch of the Jialan Temple, but now he is the high priest of the Xuanming Divine Court, and can be regarded as a believer under the 'Pluto'."

Su Yi was startled and said, "How could there be such a change?"

He clearly remembered that a long time ago, the Jialan Temple was the top line of Taoism in the Ming River region.

Moreover, it is rumored that it was the strange power from the City of Death that destroyed the Jialan Temple!

But now, the patriarch of Jialan Temple has become a believer of Pluto, and this change is too great.

Youxue was also shocked.

According to the words of the cloth-robed man, this Xuanming Divine Court is indeed related to the Hades trapped in the city of death!

This also just confirms Su Yi's previous inference that Xuanming Divine Court, a behemoth that has only risen in the world recently, is actually the "Pluto" standing behind it!

"It sounds complicated, but it's actually simple, he betrayed."

The cloth-robed man said calmly, "Back then, before the calamity of the Jialan Temple, a kind of emperor-level Buddha master in the gate had joined hands to enter the City of Death, but none of them were returned. Some of the Buddha masters fought to the death and unfortunately died. , the Dharma body was refined into a sinister devil monk."

"Some Buddha masters chose to betray and become disciples of Hades."

"The old monk in black before, the Buddha's name is 'Bitter Willow', but now he is the high priest of Xuanming Divine Court 'Shi'er Seng'."

Su Yi couldn't help raising his eyebrows, "It's a very difficult thing to make a Buddhist monk with a resolute mind to defect. Is this 'Pluto' really so capable?"

The cloth-robed man shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know, but I speculate that this should be inseparable from the 'Wheel of Fate'."

Wheel of Fate!

Su Yi vaguely understood.

According to rumors, the ancient Pluto mastered nine taboo-like artifacts, known as the Nine Forbiddens of the Pluto.

Among them is an artifact that resembles a divine wheel, with six secret pictures engraved on the outside and nine secluded images on the inside. It is called the Wheel of Fate.

It is said that this treasure can be unpredictable, can crush past causes and effects, and can also resolve the disasters of the present. It is mysterious and powerful.

Back in Ziluo City, when Su Yi killed the Nine Nether Crows by virtue of his previous life, he was escaped by the latter with the power of the "Wheel of Fate".

After thinking for a while, Su Yi asked again, "What did this demon monk come to you for?"

The cloth-robed man picked up the wine jar and poured it for Su Yi and himself

After drinking a glass of wine, he said, "Xuanming Divine Court is planning a major event, trying to rescue the trapped Hades from the city of death."

Su Yi immediately understood and said, "They want you to remove that tombstone?"

The cloth-robed man nodded: "Yes, as long as the tombstone that was suppressed in front of the gate of the City of Death is still there, it will be very difficult for the terrifying evil spirits trapped in the forbidden places in the City of Death to escape from their troubles. "

After a pause, he continued: "And they already know that I have the ability to remove this tombstone."

Speaking of this, the cloth-robed man remembered something and said, "On the night of the Ten Thousand Lantern Festival not long ago, the person who defeated the Nine Nether Crows in Ziluo City should be a fellow Daoist, right?"

Su Yi smiled and did not deny it.

The cloth-robed man said, "That little crow tried to snatch the Cui family's artifact, the 'Judgement Pen', and used this treasure to change the original rules in the city of the dead, so as to achieve the goal of getting the Hades out of trouble, but unfortunately, it fell short in the end."

Su Yi said: "So, they came up with your idea again, trying to get you to remove the tombstone."

The cloth-robed man said, "I didn't agree."

Su Yi thought thoughtfully, "They shouldn't just give up like this."

"good."

The cloth-robed man nodded, his brows furrowed on his unsmiling face, and said, "However, they already know the reason why I have been guarding this place in the past years."

Su Yi narrowed his eyes and said, "They threatened you with the oath you made?"

The cloth-robed man said calmly: "Now they don't dare to do it, because they know how serious the consequences will be if they annoy me. But in the future... it won't matter."

Su Yi sighed involuntarily.

Few people in this world know that in ancient times, Tianxuecheng had another name:

Fengdu!

One of the core powerhouses of the underworld!

And the cloth-robed man in this blacksmith shop has another identity, "Fengdu Night Watchman"!

Although, as early as in ancient times, the behemoth of the underworld had been destroyed, but now, Fengdu has also become the prosperous Tianxue City in front of him.

But the lineage of men in cloth robes has been silently guarding the city.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the past years, if there were no men in cloth robes in charge, Tianxuecheng would have been wiped from the world long ago.

According to the rules of the Night's Watch, each generation of the Night's Watch must swear to guard the Snow City for 60,000 years.

The city is in the people, the city is broken and people perish!

This is the high vow of every Night's Watch.

If Xuanming Divine Court threatened the cloth-robed man by destroying Tianxuecheng, it would be a big trouble.

However, Su Yi also knew that if Xuanming Divine Court really did this based on the way of the cloth-robed man, the consequences would not be bearable by Xuanming Divine Court.

It's not even an exaggeration to say that if it weren't for the oath he had made, and with the strength of a cloth-robed man, in this ghostly world, few people would dare to threaten him!

"But it's okay, you guy is back."

A smile appeared on the stern face of the cloth-robed man.

Su Yi was startled, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Didn't you see that I only have spiritual cultivation level now?"

The cloth-robed man said calmly, "Cultivation is just an appearance. In this underworld, if someone can help me, then this person is destined to be you."

When listening to the conversation between the two, Acheng, who was full of confusion, almost froze when he heard the whole person.

He couldn't imagine how Master could value this "old friend" who looked younger than him so much.
