Unexpectedly, when Su Li heard Jing Ke's words, he immediately laughed heartily and said, "Envoy Jing really does have sharp eyes. In fact, my Su brothers are all part of the hundred families ? ? After the Heng Family's Su Qin, our ancestors took Su Qin as their disciple and painstakingly studied the" Yin Talisman Technique ", only then did we comprehend the key technique. My brother Su Dai was one of the most influential figures in the Su Clan's "Yin Talisman Technique" and was once used in the battle of the Yong Dynasty in Korea. However, he had retired from the Chu Country with just a poor master in Western Zhou and saved Korea. "Therefore, it is an exaggeration for Jing Ren to think that his brother is able to understand the laws of heaven. However, my brother is deeply involved with the 'Yin Symbol Technique', if we were to talk about the vertical and vertical arts, I am afraid no one in this world can match him."

"No wonder. Then, based on what Doctor Su has learned, how would he be compared to brother at home?" After hearing Su Li's introduction, Jing Ke suddenly came to a realization and asked about the Su Clan's two people's comparison.

"Haha, Envoy Jing is joking. What Su Li has learnt is far inferior to what his substitute brother has. "Although I also believe in the road of combination, I do not know the true art of combination. I heard that there is a connection between the ancestors, and that the" Yin Talisman Talisman "technique can be divided into two different paths. Only on behalf of brother can you be considered the true heir of a joint family." When Su Li heard Jing Ke's question, he repeatedly said that this could not be compared, because he himself was only an admirer of the Primeval Arts, and did not understand the essence of the technique.

"No wonder. From what I see, this rotten old man from the Shangguan family doesn't seem like a talented expert. He's just here to mess around and eat." When Thief Sheng heard Su Li's words, he gnawed on his deer leg while pondering inwardly.

When Jing Ke heard Su Li's response to the results of the competition, he was immediately filled with interest. First, the Crown Prince Dan wanted to send a mission to the other four kingdoms to help him fight against the Qin, but now, he had met such a master who knew the art of combination. If he could get his help, then wouldn't the grand plan of the five kingdoms go down the drain?

When Jing Ke thought here, he immediately asked Su Li: "Then where is this Senior Su Dai now?"

He had a troubled expression on his face as he said, "This, Su Li indeed does not know. However, before he left, my brother had said that he would go and live in seclusion in the western foot of the Taihang Mountains. As for the specific location, Su Li really does not know."

The western foot of Taihang Mountains? Wasn't this the land of Puyang? When Jing Ke heard Su Li's words and carefully thought about it, he suddenly felt as if he had picked up a treasure. He could not help but feel overjoyed in his heart, because this world just happened to have such a coincidence. He guessed that the old man riding a bull that he met on the way to and from Wei Daliang was definitely the elder brother Su Dai that Su Li spoke of.

Since he had come here just for this matter, and he had to meet this heir of the He Zong family, didn't he think that the heavens would arrange something like this? If he did not find that otherworldly expert, would he not have failed to live up to the good intentions of the heavens?

When Jing Ke thought of this, he had already secretly made up his mind that he would definitely find the heirs of the He Zong family. As for the banquet that Su Li was holding, he had long since lost the desire to enjoy it.

The next morning, Wei Daliang's city walls were not even filled with the outline of a red sun when a group of red maned horses galloped out from the east gate. On the back of the horses was a man in a flowing white robe.

The one leading the group was naturally the son of the Mo family, Jing Ke. Behind him were Gong Luoran, Xin Mausoleum's Four Guests, Di Kun, Du Sanniang and a few others. This time, they hurriedly left Wei Daliang and headed towards the east. They went to the west side of Taihang Mountains, which was also Wei Guo's Puyang territory. Of course, he didn't go there for sightseeing. He went there for the sake of finding Old Master Cow, who was also the direct disciple of the Heizong family, Su De.

"I say, junior brother Huanzi, is there a need to be so anxious to set off? Yet, she did not even say goodbye to Doctor Su before leaving in such a hurry. " On the back of the galloping horse, the Mo family's eighth son's second brother suggested to Jing Ke along with the rise and fall of the horse. Because the horse was moving up and down too fast, his voice seemed to be trembling.

"Senior Brother, if we don't hurry to Puyang City in time, I'm afraid that we will miss out on the guidance of the Old Senior Su Dai. At that time, I'm afraid that the grand plan of the Five Kingdoms rejecting the Qin might not be realized." Jing Ke casually replied to Di Kun, his eyes staring straight ahead without any signs of hesitation. He continued to explain, "As for Doctor Su, I've already ordered some servants to leave a message for him. Once we find his elder brother, we'll come back and plan the matter of the contract with him."

"Is that old man from the cattle really as powerful as Su Li said? It is likely possible that Su Li has deliberately exaggerated his words in order to spread the reputation of his Su Family, right? " When he thought about the old man he had met at the foot of the mountain, he realized that he was skinny and dressed in ragged clothes. He did not look like a master hiding his strength, which was why he had such a question.

Since Doctor Su has said so, then he must be a rarely seen expert. If Senior does not believe me, then when I truly meet him, you can personally give him a try and see for yourself. "Ling Chen laughed." Alright. While laughing, Jing Ke replied to Thief's words. At the same time, he sped up the whip in his hand, and even the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword that was tied to his back flew up with him.

"Grand elder's words are reasonable, I will definitely test his true abilities!" As he spoke, he only felt that Jing Ke was getting further and further away from him, so the voice behind him also rose to his ears.

"Giddap ? Giddap ? Giddap ?" As Jing Ke's horse sped up, there was no longer any sound of conversation on the back of the horse. The only sounds that could be heard were the sound of people chasing after each other and the sound of the horsewhips and whips. As for the dust and dirt that were rolling up from the ground, they were carried up by the galloping hooves of the horses, and they flew up into the air on both sides of the road like a small boat suddenly speeding across a calm river.

Jing Ke sped along without stopping, and within a day, he arrived at the foothills he passed by before. He was so tired that his horse was almost paralyzed, and it seemed that he couldn't move anymore. Feeling helpless, Jing Ke and the others could only dismount from their horses and lead the horses forward.

"Brother Jing, you risked your life to find someone, and yet you want to tire this horse to death. Why don't you take a break?" Zhu Hai Sheng's back was as big as a bear's, and he weighed more than two hundred jin. His mount, of course, didn't budge an inch. At this moment, it had already turned its hooves and refused to move forward.

"That's right. Even if the horses can handle it, this guy can't. I think you want to tire us to death." This time, he was not the first one to come out and complain, but he had endured for a long time. Now that he heard Zhu Hai's words, he naturally had to help him.

Jing Ke looked at everyone's appearance, his eyebrows had already been dyed snow-white by the dust, and his face had a tired look, so he ordered, "Fine, there's no rush, everyone should get some rest on the ground."

Hearing Jing Ke's words, Thief Sheng quickly dismounted, took the leather canteen from his horse bag, and began to drink to his heart's content. After drinking to his heart's content, he let out a sigh, as if he was very unhappy. Seeing this, everyone dismounted and drank their water to rest, and Jing Ke also dismounted with them. However, he did not idle around, and found an intersection by himself, standing there and looking up and down the foothills of the mountain: vast and rugged, endless and endless, as if the depths of the mountain were hidden with hidden secrets.

Jing Ke was currently sizing up the foothills, but he saw a woodcutter carrying a load of firewood at the intersection, and slowly walking over. After the axman had walked a bit closer, Jing Ke stood up and went up to greet him, and directly asked: "May I ask which mountain this foothold is?"

The axman saw that someone was asking a question, so he stopped and took advantage of the time to answer the passerby, unloading the firewood on his shoulder. After resting for a while, he said to Jing Ke: "This place is called Hidden Mountain, it is said to be well-hidden in the depths of the mountains, and is rather revered."

"Hidden mountains?" When Jing Ke heard the woodcutter's words, he soliloquized these two words, and immediately exclaimed: "Good name, good name."

Why was he so enlightened? It was only because the Su Dynasty, which he came to search for, was hidden within this hidden mountain. That was why he sighed.

"Hehe, the mysteriousness of this mountain does not lie in his name. In the middle of the mountain is a tomb called the 'Second Annihilation Tomb'. The strange thing was that as long as someone here got an illness, they would only need to go around the Second Tomb to gather some herbs to use, and the illness would be eliminated. That's why the Second Tomb is also known as the Pill King Tomb, and some people call it the Immortal Tomb. " The axman wiped the sweat off his forehead, and continued to narrate the mystical aspects of the Hidden Mountain Range, to the point that Jing Ke's face was full of surprise when he heard it.

"There is actually such a mystical mountain. No wonder senior Su Dai chose this mountain as his hiding place." Jing Ke thought to himself.

"Then, big brother, have you ever seen an old man herding cattle?" After thinking for a while, Jing Ke asked the axman.

"Oh, then I've never seen him before. If this warrior wants to find him, then he might as well go to the deep mountains and look for him." The woodcutter heard Jing Ke's question, and slightly shook his head. He then picked up the firewood and said to Jing Ke, "Brave warrior, I'm leaving first. We're still waiting for the firewood to cook at home."

"Oh, thank you for your guidance, please do as you wish, brother." Seeing that his question delayed this woodcutter, Jing Ke hurriedly apologized.

"No thanks, no thanks." As the woodcutter spoke, he picked up the firewood and began to walk forward while shouting the songs of the mountains.

After the woodcutter left and disappeared, another figure suddenly appeared by Jing Ke's side. That person asked Jing Ke in a low voice, "Brother Kui, your woodcutter has had a very pleasant chat with you, what are you talking about?"

Jing Ke turned his head to look, it was that Thief Sheng who was sneakily asking from his side, then laughed and casually said, "Senior, you will know once you enter the mountain with me."

After Jing Ke said this, he got up and went to the side to lead the horses. He found a small path in the forest and headed straight ahead. Seeing Jing Ke about to enter the mountain, Thief, Zhu Hai, and the others immediately pulled their horses and followed behind him, slowly climbing up the mountain.

The mountain range rose and fell continuously, and the road became even more rugged. There was no place to set down when travelling to the middle of the mountain, not to mention a horse with four hooves. The already exhausted and cumbersome horses, coupled with the rough and slippery mountain road, caused many to be unable to stand. They all slipped and fell into the undergrowth. Thief, Zhu Hai, and the others had wanted to pull the reins to give it a try, but seeing that they couldn't pull the horse to the ground, they had no choice but to give up.

"Brother Kui, this place is filled with trees and birds, yet it doesn't even have a decent mountain road, let alone any traces of humans. Are you sure this old man would live here?" At this time, it was already difficult for Thief Sheng to walk, and he couldn't help but ask that Jing Ke again.

"The so-called experts obviously live in places that are even more profound and dangerous. Otherwise, how could they be called experts?" While slowly climbing, Jing Ke continued to smile and reply.

"Stop lying to me. If you can't find that old man, or if that old man is just an ordinary cowherd, then let's see how you will account to your brothers." Seeing Jing Ke's disapproval, Thief Sheng was naturally unconvinced and said.

Who would have thought that just as he finished speaking, he would hear Gong Weirong call out softly from the side, "Young Master Jing, quickly, look."

Everyone heard her shout clearly, so they all looked in the direction she was pointing. They saw some green smoke rising up from the col in front of them. The smoke was still curling up, as if there were traces of people there. When Jing Ke saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed. Thus, he lightly shouted, "Hurry, let's go take a look", and quickened his pace as he walked forward.

When he got closer to where the green smoke was coming from, he saw that it was not like what he had expected, a cottage on the mountain or a fire at home. It was a rather open hill, and on top of it were two lonely graves. Strangely, there was not a single blade of grass around the lonely grave. The open area in front of the grave was filled with footprints. It was likely that someone often came here to pay their respects. On the graves of these two lonely tombs, there was clearly a tombstone with the words "Second Annihilation Tomb" written on it.

Seeing these three words, Jing Ke's heart couldn't help but thump loudly. Wasn't this the Second Annihilation Tomb that the axman mentioned before? Judging from the footprints around the grave, it must be because the axman said that the person who had contracted the disease had come here to pick herbs.

Was it really that magical? Jing Ke asked himself in his heart. Then, he took a close look at the tomb. There was a young man dressed in mourning clothes, wearing a white robe, who had cooked some meat, worms, and millet rice. He knelt and kowtowed nine times to the "Second Tomb", as if he was worshipping the dead. The wisps of green smoke that were emitted from the col earlier must have originated from the dried up branches that this young man had burned.
