Amidst the sound of stomping footsteps, a group of strong men with swords on their waists rushed up to the second floor. At a glance, they saw the struggling little girl and middle-aged man.￥f,
"Zhuang Qiyan, today I want to see where you can escape!" The strong man in the lead had a fleshy face and one ear was missing, as if it had been severed by some sharp weapon.
The sound shook the entire second floor, which was much louder than downstairs before. Some of the weaker diners even bent over and covered their ears with looks of pain on their faces.
The little girl Yun'er, who was still screaming in fright, turned pale and did not dare to move anymore.
"Zhao Jun!?!" The middle-aged man looked ugly, glanced left and right, and suddenly broke the window.
There was a crash.
He jumped out with his daughter in his arms.
"Yun'er, run away!!"
He sent his daughter away softly and landed her in a narrow alley.
The little girl squeaked when she fell, but she seemed fine. She turned over and ran away.
Zhao Jun, the master of the Qingxiu Sect, laughed ferociously and waved his hand.
"Catch the little guy! Hehe, the eleven-year-old little guy is so beautiful. If he were older, wouldn't he become the top star of Wanye House? Come on! Capture one of them and play with him for a day!!"
"yes!"
"Okay boss! Haha!"
The men around him laughed, and a group of people ran towards the little girl, while most of them rushed towards the middle-aged man downstairs.
Lin Xin quietly looked down through the open window. The streets were already covered in blood.
The middle-aged man seemed to have been seriously injured and was still recovering. His movements were obviously much slower. He was stabbed twice in a few encounters. He was bleeding profusely and his face suddenly turned pale.
At this time, there were not many diners who dared to sit down and eat in the restaurant. With Lin Xin and the two of them included, there were only two tables.
They are all dressed like people in the world, and they don't look like they are easy to mess with.
There were many women at one table. The women carrying swords had angry faces and seemed to want to get up, but they were all suppressed by the middle-aged men who were with them.
Nan Shunqing frowned and looked at the fighting downstairs, with a deep look on his face, as if he had something to say.
"Did you see it? This is the underworld." Lin Xin sighed with emotion. "Chaos, killing, madness, and distortion are the themes here. The tyrants are the masters here. Even the people around them have become accustomed to numbness.
"
"I heard that Beifu is different, with strict order and dynasty rule." Nan Shunqing frowned and hesitated for a moment, then retorted.
"So what? Even if it's true, it's just a glimpse." Lin Xin picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"What about teacher? Teacher saved Junior Brother Luo and Junior Sister Dang," Nan Shunqing retorted again.
"That's different." Lin Xin shook his head.
"teacher"
Nan Shunqing wanted to speak but stopped.
"What?" Lin Xin could see what this apprentice wanted to do. "You want to save them?"
A trace of unbearability flashed in Nan Shunqing's eyes.
"Please ask the teacher to take action!"
"You still don't know what the grudge is between them, so you still want to save people?" Lin Xin asked back.
ah!
The middle-aged man below had been stabbed again.
He rolled around and continued to dodge with the dexterity of a rat, but due to the injury, his movements were far from as nimble and natural as before.
Four big men surrounded him with joking expressions on their faces, obviously toying with him.
Nan Shunqing looked down again, and finally spoke to Lin Xin again.
"Please ask the teacher to take action!"
"Everyone, once they make a choice, has established an initial cause. The subsequent consequences, whether good or evil, are all borne by you. You may have already awakened to something." There is something in Lin Xin's words that means something.
refers to.
"Disciple understands."
Nan Shunqing nodded.
Lin Xin smiled and looked at his apprentice intently.
"That's fine."
Naturally, a blue talisman appeared in his hand.
There was only one symbol written clearly on the rectangular talisman paper. A crooked symbol representing thunder.
"Thunder of the Pure Heart?" Nan Shunqing also recognized this talisman. The Thunder of the Pure Heart generally has very little power. It is used to concentrate the mind and frighten the inner demons during meditation, and its lethality is about the same as that of an oil lamp.
Before he could figure out what Lin Xin was doing with the talisman, he saw the talisman gently let go of his hand, and Wu Feng automatically floated between the two of them.
Chi!
The talisman burned and suddenly turned into a bolt of blue lightning, flying out of the window like an arrow.
The speed of lightning is so amazing.
In just the blink of an eye, there was a series of screams from the Qingxiu faction and others who were besieging them below.
Nan Shunqing quickly looked down and saw that the blue lightning just penetrated the heart of the last one of more than ten strong men, and then shot towards the alley in the distance.
After another two breaths, several screams came from the alley, and then there was no sound again.
The whole street was originally full of people watching the excitement, but when they saw this scene, they ran away without saying a word.
Such changes in power have gone beyond ordinary battles at the Jianghu level. If you don't leave, you may die without a burial place even if you are afraid of being affected.
The Qingxiu sect is not a good person. It has a big background. When the people seeking revenge come, they may not have a chance to leave.
In the blink of an eye, he killed more than twenty people in a row.
The blue thunderbolt flew back like a living thing, and Lin Xin pinched it with his index finger, then exploded and dissipated.
"Behind the Qingxiu Sect is the Huangshan Sect, which is the largest evil sect around here besides the Kaiyuan Demon Sect. Killing these people is just the beginning."
Lin Xin picked up a handful of vegetables with chopsticks, put it into his mouth, and chewed it carefully.
"Among these people, there are some who have good intentions. Although they are few, I will kill them all regardless of black and white. The reason why"
"Disciple understands." Nan Shunqing pondered for a moment and nodded seriously.
"Just understand."
Neither of them spoke anymore and just ate their food quietly.
On the gray-white street downstairs, a group of corpses lay quietly on the ground. All Qingxiu sect's corpses had a hole through the heart. The edges of the wound were all burnt and there was no blood flow.
At this time, a fast horse cavalry team had arrived, all dressed as official officials, wearing red clothes and white belts.
The officers dismounted their horses and quickly checked the corpse's condition.
The leader just looked at it casually and looked grim. He turned his head and whispered a few words to his subordinates, and then quickly led the people away.
There are some bold homeless people on the side of the street who want to make a fortune by killing people, but they don't dare to get too close. They carefully watch to see if anyone is collecting the bodies.
There were also some nearby residents who were watching the excitement, but those who had some knowledge hurriedly went home and closed their doors.
Suddenly the block seemed to be mostly empty.
Lin and Xin were sitting on the second floor eating.
Both the master and the disciple remained silent, but the woman with the sword at the table not far away stood up and began to argue.
"I'm causing trouble for you, teacher." Nan Shunqing said somewhat helplessly.
"It's not necessarily troublesome, but it's really troublesome for you." Lin Xinyi pointed out.
Nan Shunqing was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing. He also saw the middle-aged man downstairs, getting up covered in blood and rushing into the alley.
Soon, the man also took out the little girl from before.
The little girl burst into tears and held on to her father's hand.
The two of them rushed towards the restaurant.
"That man had thirteen fatal wounds all over his body. He was able to survive to this point just by breathing." Lin Xin sighed slightly.
Nan Shunqing thought for a moment and immediately understood what Lin Xin meant.
""
He didn't know what to say, but there were some things that he would still choose to do even if he knew what trouble it would cause.
Sure enough, soon a man covered in blood rushed up from the stairs on the second floor of the restaurant. He took the little girl and rushed in front of Lin Xin and the others, and knelt down with a thud.
"Please protect my little girl." The man was already speechless. The fatal injuries all over his body made his breath weak. He almost fell to the ground when he just spoke like this.
Nan Shunqing sighed helplessly and looked at Lin Xin.
"It's up to you." Lin Xin smiled and looked at him.
"Please protect my little girl, this is my reward." The man took out a palm-sized statue of mutton-fat white jade from his arms.
"Dad!!" The little girl Yun'er finally realized what she was doing and cried hoarsely.
"Dad! Don't die! Don't die!!"
She cried loudly, tears streaming down her face, and she grabbed the man's sleeves with both hands.
"Yun'er will never scold you again or be disobedient again. Dad, don't leave."
Blood from wounds all over the man's body continued to drip onto the floor. He was actually almost unable to hold on anymore. It was obvious that he had used some secret method to activate his body to hold on until now.
"Good boy Yun'er"
He stretched out his hand to touch his daughter, but there was only one finger left in his hand, and the other fingers were all cut off, and finally hung down powerlessly.
"Dad" Yun'er choked and hugged the man's shoulders tightly.
Nan Shunqing looked at the scene in front of him and knew that at this point, the man was hopeless.
He had been severely injured before, and was under siege just now. He managed to hold on for so long. Unless the teacher came to help him just as he jumped out, he would still not be able to escape death.
"Teacher" he finally looked at Lin Xin.
"It's not a bad idea to accept her as a maid, but since it's your choice, it's your cause and effect, and I won't interfere."
Lin Xin said calmly.
"Thank you teacher!"
Nan Shunqing nodded.
Lin Xin stretched out his hand and pointed lightly.
Immediately, the wounds on the man's body healed quickly, but his body's potential was exhausted, like a burnt candle that could no longer be ignited.
"Thank you." The man knelt on the ground, his voice already weak.
He hugged his daughter and whispered something into her ear, but his voice became weaker and weaker. After a few words, he was as thin as a gnat.
Plop.
At this time, the little girl Yun'er also knelt down towards Lin Xin.
"Please! Save daddy! Save daddy!!"
Her frantic forehead hit the ground with a loud bang, but she didn't seem to feel any pain at all.
"I have no reason to save your father." Lin Xin said with a smile. "Promising him to protect you is also my disciple's intention. This is already a favor."
Facing the tragedy in front of him, he was so calm that he was even a little weird. (To be continued.)
