Qin Yun carefully used a hunting knife to remove the snake's head, and after making sure that there was no second poisonous snake hidden in the rock crevice, he dug out the three green leaves growing together by the roots and put them in the medicine box.
Qin Yun took a long breath after putting the medicine box into his backpack.
The thrill just now reminded him that in this dangerous and unpredictable Manglong Mountains, any caution is necessary.
After returning to the ground from the mountain wall more than ten feet high, Qin Yun was not in a hurry to leave because there were still several mountain walls nearby that he had not yet explored.
Since you can find blue leaf grass here, maybe there are more nearby.
Just as Qin Yun was about to climb up another mountain wall, a warning suddenly occurred in his heart, and he quietly pressed the hilt of the Qinggang sword with his right hand.
"Eh!"
When Qin Yun turned around, two figures, one tall and one short, appeared in the woods dozens of steps away from him.
The taller one is an old man in black clothes holding a medicine hoe. He has a thin face and a long gray beard, but a pair of triangular eyes are shining brightly, staring at Qin Yun not knowing what he is thinking.
The short one was a young man in gray clothes who looked about thirteen or fourteen years old and was carrying a medicine basket. He looked at Qin Yun with some curiosity.
Judging from their attire, these two people are obviously herb collectors who come to Manglong Mountain to collect herbs, but those who dare to go deep here are definitely not ordinary people.
Wild beasts are rampant and dangerous in the mountains, making it almost impossible for ordinary people to move.
The old man in black looked around, and after realizing that Qin Yun was alone, the vigilance in his eyes was much less.
"Little guy, you are so courageous!" He approached Qin Yun calmly, stared at Qin Yun's medicine hoe hanging on his belt and sneered: "How dare you break into our Chidan Sect's medicine shop?
Collect herbs.”
Red Pill Sect! Qin Yun's heart sank.
The Scarlet Alchemy Sect is a side sect. Although it is a sect that mainly refines elixirs, it relies on the Tiancheng Sword Sect to become famous, and even the Qin family would never dare to provoke it.
As a descendant of Qin Yun's small family, if he really offends the Red Pill Clan, he can be crushed into powder with just a little finger.
Seeing that Qin Yun had been calmed down, the old man in black smiled proudly and took a few steps closer: "I don't blame you because you are young and ignorant. I will leave everything you have on you and get out!"
That's too much!
Qin Yun was stunned for a moment, then suddenly became angry.
The other party threatened him as soon as he came up and didn't take him seriously at all.
Although Qin Yun was only fifteen years old, he was not an ignorant young man. While angry, he also had doubts about the identity of the old man in black.
Qin Yun had heard of the reputation of the Scarlet Pill Sect, but he had never heard that this side sect would act so domineeringly. Moreover, when he took over the family's mission, he had not heard that this area of Manglong Mountain was the Scarlet Pill Sect's medicine farm.
If it is true as what the other party said, then the deacons and stewards at the hall must have warned him, and they would never deliberately hide it and let the disciples get into trouble.
"You said you are a member of the Scarlet Dan Sect and this is the Scarlet Dan Sect's medicine shop. What proof do you have?"
Qin Yun's rhetorical question made the old man in black look stiff.
"presumptuous!"
His face suddenly changed, and his triangular eyes revealed an extremely vicious light.
While shouting angrily, the old man in black suddenly raised his arms, and dozens of points of cold light bloomed in the palms of his hands, shooting towards Qin Yun!
The sudden sudden attack of the old man in black surprised Qin Yun.
Fortunately, Qin Yun had already been alert. In the critical moment, he immediately drew his sword out of its sheath and waved the Qinggang Sword in front of him to protect him.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The crisp sound of metal clashing was endless. Most of the hidden weapons in the sneak attack were knocked down by the jumping sword light, and the rest passed by Qin Yun's sides and hit the rock wall behind.
Broken Arrow Style!
This is the most complex move among the basic swordsmanship. Its function is to break the flying arrows and concealed weapons. This is the first time Qin Yun has used it in actual combat after mastering it.
The incident happened in a hurry. Although Qin Yun took action in time, two points of cold light leaked through the sword network composed of thousands of sword lights.
One piece passed by Qin Yun's cheek, and one scratched the clothes on his left shoulder, but it did not cause any damage.
These hidden weapons were clearly sharp blades as thin as willow leaves, with a strange green light flashing on the blades, which must have been tempered with poison.
This old man in black clothes can be said to be extremely vicious. Qin Yun has no grievances against him at all. He committed such a vicious attack as soon as he came up and showed no humanity at all.
After blocking the opponent's fatal blow, Qin Yun's energy and blood surged, and his right hand holding the Qinggang Sword trembled slightly due to the burning fighting spirit.
Within the invisible arm, the powerful Dantian true energy is injected into the sword body through the martial arts veins, causing a misty red light to emit from the sword's edge!
"kill!"
Qin Yun suddenly took a big step forward, thrust his long sword straight at the enemy, hot breath surged through the sword, and the sword light exploded and completely enveloped him in an instant.
The flames of the Fiery Sword Technique break through the iron wall!
The blazing red sword light flashed ten steps away in an instant, attacking the old man in black with an invincible momentum.
The old man in black never expected that Qin Yun's counterattack would be so fierce and fierce, and the lust in his triangular eyes turned into astonishment.
Flame Breaking the Iron Wall is the first style of the Fiery Sword Technique. This sword style is the most powerful and the essence is to strike with all your strength without considering your own retreat or protection.
Qin Yun's temperament is exactly the same as this sword move. He is young and brave and full of energy. In addition, he practices the fire heart art. With all his strength, he can fully display the power of the fire breaking iron wall!
If the meridians in his legs hadn't been opened yet, this sword could have been faster and more powerful!
But it's enough.
The old man in black was not very strong, otherwise he would not have needed to use such despicable sneak attacks to deal with Qin Yun.
So when Qin Yun's sword light came towards him, he was shocked and frightened, and did not have the strength or courage to resist it head-on.
Driven by instinct, the old man in black hurriedly dodged sideways.
Poof!
"Ah!~"
With an earth-shattering scream, he avoided the most fatal wound, but his left arm and part of his shoulder were cut off by the sword light, and blood spurted out from the neat and smooth wound several feet away.
The old man in black rolled to the ground in embarrassment, raised his head and roared at the young man in gray standing next to him: "Quickly, release the Needle Bee!"
The young man in gray seemed to be stunned by everything that happened in front of him. He was stunned and completely at a loss. He didn't wake up until the old man in black grabbed his ankle with his remaining left hand.
He hurriedly took off the medicine basket he was carrying and reached inside to grab it.
At this time, Qin Yun stopped a dozen steps away.
He has not been practicing swordsmanship for long, and he has only just mastered Yan Po Iron Wall. Although he has exerted astonishing power with his bravery, he is still far from being able to control it freely.
Although he didn't know what the "Golden Needle Bee" called by the old man in black was, Qin Yun could understand with his toes that this must be the opponent's last trump card, and he certainly didn't want his opponent to use it.
Just when he was about to rush over and kill the young man in gray, he saw the young man in gray pull out a rusty hunting knife from the medicine basket.
The knife was thrust downwards into the chest of the old man in black!
Poof!
The blood from the open wound splashed onto the young man's face, adding a bit of ferocity to his face that was distorted by exertion and excitement.
"Uh, you..."
The old man in black was hit hard again, his eyes bulging. He grabbed the hunting knife stuck in his chest with his left hand and managed to squeeze out a few words from his throat. Dark blood could not help but flow out from the corners of his mouth.
"Old thief! When you killed my parents, did you think of today?"
The young man let out an almost crazy roar, his eyes full of violence. He pulled out the hunting knife with all his strength and inserted it again, stabbing the old man in black through the body again!
One sword, two swords, three swords...
The old man in black died after taking the second stab, but the young man in gray seemed not to notice, and still pulled out and stabbed the knife one after another, letting the blood from the blade splash onto his body.
Until Qin Yun came over and reached out to hold his shoulders.
"He is already dead..."
The young man's roar made Qin Yun understand the reason for his revolt. Qin Yun, who had lost his parents since childhood, could understand the anger in the other person's heart.
The young man in gray clothes trembled. He raised his head and looked at Qin Yun in confusion, then dropped the hunting knife and cried bitterly.
After a long time, the young man in gray finally calmed down.
His name is Chen Li. When he returned home with his parents to visit relatives three years ago, he was kidnapped by an old man in black and became a medicine boy.
This old man in black was a Sanjin cultivator of alchemy. He had no sect and acted ruthlessly. When he kidnapped Chen Li, he killed Chen Li's parents who tried to stop him.
In the past two years, Chen Li had suffered a lot at the hands of the old man in black. He had to do all kinds of menial and tiring work, and was often insulted and beaten. If he hadn't been obsessed with avenging his parents, he might not have been able to persevere.
Relying on this forbearance and persistence, he gradually gained the trust of the old man in black, and this time he accompanied him to the Manglong Mountain to collect medicine.
Chen Li had also seen the old man in black brutally murdering other herbal collectors to rob the medicinal materials collected by others, but this time he kicked an iron plate and was severely injured by Qin Yun.
So when the old man in black asked him to take out the Golden Needle Bee, he decisively made up for it and avenged his parents.
"Benefactor, if I hadn't met you, I really don't know how long I would have lived..." The young man choked with sobs and said gratefully, "Not to mention avenging my parents."
"I don't dare to be a benefactor. My name is Qin Yun. Speaking of which, I still want to thank you!" Qin Yun shook his head and asked: "What is this golden needle bee? Is it so powerful?"
"Yes!" Chen Li nodded.
He carefully took out a beehive from the medicine basket.
The honeycomb is about the size of a watermelon, with a black gold surface and a diamond-shaped hole at the top. You can vaguely see some squirming creatures inside.
"There are seventy-two golden needle bees and a queen bee here. They are the most powerful insects in the hands of the old thief. It is said that if they are released together, they can kill any warrior in the innate realm!"
So powerful! Qin Yun couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
