Volume 1: A stone strikes a thousand waves, the world surrounds Li Daosheng Chapter 29: So don't borrow things from others casually
Two days passed quickly, and the weather in Suzhou city changed in the blink of an eye, from a cloudless sunny day to a cloudy and foggy day in just a blink of an eye.
The humidity has been very high these days, and in the mornings the city is covered with a thin layer of fog, making everything blurry.
And it happened in this fog that a group of nuns and a group of Taoists met.
It was on the street in the city. The two gangs of righteous people holding swords made the pedestrians on the street retreat consciously, until they bumped into each other, one coming from the corner and the other walking from the street.
The nun who was leading a group of female disciples stopped.
The Taoist priest who was leading a group of young Taoist priests also stopped.
They looked at each other for a long while, the nun frowned and the Taoist priest stroked his beard.
"I didn't expect that you from the Qingcheng Sect also wanted to intervene in this matter." The nun, wearing a gray and white robe, said to the Taoist priest.
"I just didn't expect you, Emei, to come so quickly." The Taoist priest in a green robe picked up his beard and smiled with his lips curled.
The nun's face looked even uglier, and her pair of long thin eyebrows were almost twisted together.
"Let's not beat around the bush, Taoist Qingzheng. I will only say one thing today. Li Si from the Emei Sect must be arrested. If you from the Qingcheng Sect give me some face, just leave it alone this time."
This time, her senior sister gave a death order, requiring Li Si to be brought back no matter what, and for him to hand over the Su Nu sword technique that he had stolen in Emei last time.
This matter concerns the sect's martial arts, and there is no possibility that the Emei sect will back down.
Moreover, when Li Si stole the sword technique, he left a note saying that he would only borrow it for a few days and would never pass it on to anyone else.
This is a huge shame and humiliation for the Emei Sect, and an explanation must be sought.
"Master Huan Deng, your temper is still as bad as ever."
The Taoist priest named Qingzheng smiled bitterly, glanced at the disciples behind him and said.
"But this time, our Qingcheng Sect must also capture Li Si."
As for the reason, it was that four months ago, their Xuanqing sword technique was also stolen, and a note was also found at the scene.
Of course, neither side knew that Li Si had also stolen the other's things. For the sake of their sect's reputation, they both issued a gag order regarding such matters.
However, they didn't understand. Li Si clearly didn't use the sword, so what was he trying to do by stealing the sword technique?
"Click." Master Huandeng tightened the sword in her hand and said with a raised eyebrow.
"Then it seems that we can only rely on our own abilities."
"Haha." Taoist Qingzheng smiled and raised his hand to return the greeting: "It seems that this is the only way."
But he was secretly groaning in his heart. If he had known this would happen, he would never have accepted this mission and gone down the mountain. Doing evil with the Emei Sect was really against the principle of inaction.
"Hmph!" With a cold snort, Master Huandeng left with a group of female disciples.
In the mist, Taoist Qingzheng stood up straight and sighed.
This matter is becoming more and more troublesome.
…
The Qingcheng Sect and the Emei Sect left separately, but no one knew that shortly after they left, two people also appeared on this street.
"Master Qingzheng of the Qingcheng Sect and Master Huandeng of the Emei Sect are both first-rate masters who are only a hair's breadth away from a breakthrough. Combined with the sword formation formed by the disciples of the two sects, it will be difficult for even famous masters to deal with them."
Xiao Muchu was eating the candied haws in his hand while squinting his eyes as he talked to Mu Wu beside him.
"Do you think that with them, our chances of catching Li Si will be greater?"
The sugar coating of the candied haws made a crackling sound as he chewed it, making Mu Wu's face gloomy.
"How do you know they will help us?"
"We don't need them to help us." Xiao Muchu licked the corner of his mouth and smiled.
"As long as they go and catch Li Si, we can just take advantage of the situation and wait for the oriole behind."
As he said that, he pointed at Mu Wu and himself and said, "After all, we are two famous masters, right? You can't do something like taking advantage of someone's misfortune, right?"
As he spoke, he was chewing the hawthorn in his mouth.
"It's okay." Mu Wu listened to the voice and silently hugged the ancient sword in his hand to his chest.
He was afraid that he would not be able to control himself and would chop the candied haws in the man's hand with a sword.
"It's good as long as you can make it." Xiao Muchu ate the last candied haws with a smile and said while looking at the skewer.
"I really don't know why Li Si likes to eat this kind of thing, and doesn't even think it's too sweet."
It was as if he was not the one who was eating so happily just now.
"You've got sugar on your face."
After leaving a few words indifferently, Mu Wu walked away with a gloomy face.
He felt that after being with this man for too long, people on the street looked at him strangely.
"Well, is that so?" Xiao Muchu wiped his face and indeed a piece of sugar coating came off.
He put the candy coating into his mouth and ate it. Seeing Mu Wu walking away, he smiled, shook his head, and quickly followed.
"Master Mu, please wait for me."
…
In the evening, Master Huandeng released a pigeon from the window of the post station.
The pigeon flapped its wings and flew away. There was a small wooden tube tied to its feet, which contained a letter she wrote to her senior sister.
The current situation is not optimistic. The Qingcheng Sect is not an easy sect to deal with. If too much time is wasted fighting with them, by the time other forces arrive, Li Si will only be more and more defeated.
Now, each of the martial arts sects has their own ideas and they all want to capture Li Si, but there is only one Li Si.
There is no benefit at all for the sects to gather together except to restrain each other.
Nun Huandeng stood beside the candlestick by the window with a frown on her face and sighed softly.
In fact, if her senior sister had not been so angry this time, their Emei Sect would not have made such a big fuss.
The Su Nu sword technique is not a particularly advanced sword technique in Emei. Ordinary inner disciples can learn it. Its only value is that it is the foundation of all Emei sword techniques. It can be said that the Emei sword technique evolved based on this set of sword techniques.
Therefore, if you want to learn advanced sword techniques, you must start with this book.
But because of this, this set of sword techniques is not precious. Although there are not many printed copies, almost everyone in the Emei School knows how to use it.
No one knew what Li Si was going to do with this thing. Not to mention the sword, he didn't even use any weapon. So what could he do even if he learned swordsmanship?
Huan Deng couldn't figure it out, but what she didn't know was.
The copy of Su Nu Sword Technique that Li Si stole was not an ordinary engraved copy, but an original copy with annotations by the founder of Emei.
It is the ancestral property that is kept personally by the head of each generation.
This item must not fall into the hands of outsiders, so her head sister was so angry.
Originally, Emei was already preparing to arrest Li Si, but then they happened to encounter the imperial court's wanted order, so naturally they would not let go of this opportunity.
“Bump.”
At this time, there was a knock on Master Huandeng's door.
"Come in." He straightened his expression and said.
The door was pushed open, and a little nun dressed as a disciple came in.
"Master, we found out where Li Si is."
