Chapter 671: Chapter 291: Memorial_2
Bell, bell, bell!!!
The bell hanging on the side of the thatched cottage suddenly rang sharply.
Hidden Sword Hermit looked up and nodded slightly:
“The time is just right as they have arrived.”
…
…
As soon as Hidden Sword Hermit’s words fell, a group of people had already entered Qingmu Forest.
Leading the group were four individuals.
A pale-faced scholar, a woman in the prime of her life, and the last one was an elderly man.
Following the trio was a middle-aged man in a large red robe.
The three people kept the middle-aged man protected behind them, clearly of great importance.
And behind the middle-aged man, was a line of ten White Robed Swordsmen.
Further behind, were a group of black clothed men.
The pale-faced scholar held a folding fan in his hand, snapped it shut, and gently patted his palm twice:
“It is indeed a Maze, presumably based on the Eight Diagrams. This Array is not hard to break; just follow me inside.”
“Eh?”
The elder smiled softly, shaking his head as he said:
“Don’t rush; since there’s a Maze here, we mustn’t be careless.
“I observe the arrangement of this Array is rather exquisite. How about you guide us, and let your subordinates explore it first?”
“Wandering people, do you not trust me?”
The scholar said with a smile: “Although I am not as experienced and knowledgeable as the wandering people, the way of the Array is trivial for me; everyone just needs to follow behind me.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he tiptoed and hurried towards a direction.
The woman in the group could not help but laugh:
“The good intentions of the wandering people are misunderstood as a donkey’s liver and lungs.”
The elderly man smiled helplessly and was about to speak when he suddenly noticed the scholar’s figure had disappeared.
His face changed immediately, and after carefully observing the surroundings, he hurriedly said:
“No good, Inquisitive Scholar has fallen into the Array. Given our current location, if it is indeed a typical Eight Sects Maze, he shouldn’t have disappeared… This Array is tricky.”
While he was speaking, suddenly a whooshing sound of breaking wind was heard in the air.
However, from where the sound came, was difficult to distinguish.
Then, a scream was heard.
Everyone looked at each other in shock; the next moment, they saw Inquisitive Scholar running wildly in the forest.
But just as they caught sight of him, he suddenly disappeared behind a tree.
The old man frowned tightly:
“The so-called Maze manipulates the Eight Diagrams position, deceiving one’s eyes. It seems to disappear and reappear because there’s something blocking your line of sight.
“Layer upon layer until one completely loses direction.
“He is currently in the Xun Position… Everyone, let’s wait here for a while.”
As soon as the old man finished speaking, he suddenly flew into the air, entered the forest, with a flurry of steps and stretched out his hand.
As he reached behind a tree to grab, just then another person leapt past, and the old man grabbed him in one go.
He pulled forcefully, and dragged the person out from behind the tree.
It was the Inquisitive Scholar.
After Wenbi Scholar landed, he turned back to see the old man step twice on the tree before flying back.
Just as he was about to land, from the side of the bushes, suddenly three swift arrows were launched fiercely.
Inquisitive Scholar hurriedly shouted:
“Watch out!”
The old man laughed heartily, his robe sleeves moving without wind, casually waved to deflect the cold arrows.
But unexpectedly, the force of these three arrows was unexpectedly strong.
Using the old man’s Inner Strength, he barely shifted the target, yet the arrows still pierced through his sleeves.
“How formidable!”
The old man was startled, but no longer lingered; he grabbed Inquisitive Scholar by the shoulders and hurried towards where everyone else was.
Moments later, the two reappeared, and everyone looked at Inquisitive Scholar.
More precisely, they were looking at his shoulder.
Inquisitive Scholar’s face turned red:
“I was careless…”
As he was speaking, he was about to pull out the cold arrow when that middle-aged man in the large red robe coldly spoke:
“If I were you, I certainly wouldn’t pull it out like that.”
“Hm?”
Inquisitive Scholar was startled: “Master, is there something you would teach me?”
This red-robed middle-aged man, like an extremely bright flame, moved quickly to Inquisitive Scholar’s side.
He examined the cold arrow.
The arrow was not long, at least half as short compared to regular arrows.
The shaft was not made of bamboo or wood, but forged from metal.
It was thicker than ordinary arrows, about as thick as an adult’s index finger.
The red-robed middle-aged man, upon reaching the front, gently flicked it with his finger, a faint sound emitted from inside.
Everyone looked in amazement:
“There’s something inside? This is interesting, I’ve never seen such an arrow.”
Even the old man, known for his wide knowledge, seemed a bit puzzled at this moment:
“Master, is there something wrong with this arrow?”
“Hehe…”
The master chuckled:
“You’ve never seen this arrow, and you should have. Because most who have seen this arrow are mostly dead.
“Didn’t expect to encounter a Cu Xin arrow here within Jifeng Mountain… Could it be him?”
His face showed a shifting expression, yet more of a thrill hidden deep in his eyes.
But the next moment, without waiting for others to inquire, he suddenly grabbed Inquisitive Scholar’s wrist, secured a part of the arrow shaft, and squeezed hard.
