Just when the three of them were about to slowly grind the shopkeeper to death, they suddenly heard a gunshot.
The alchemist, who was concentrating on performing illusions, suffered a brain burst and died on the spot.
Someone actually took advantage of the three of them to focus on the shopkeeper, quietly touched the area, and fired a fire blunderbuss at close range. It was a weak alchemist, and he was naturally killed with one blow.
The scholar was so horrified by this scene that he couldn't speak. He just shouted "Big Brother" and saw something flying towards him. It turned out to be a "Dragon Fire Gun" weighing ten kilograms.
If he was hit by this ten-pound iron lump, his brain would not burst, but his head would bleed. The scholar could only hide away in embarrassment. Before he could get up, someone had already killed him, but he was not given any breathing space.
time.
I saw the man holding two swords, and the blades were burning with blazing fire, which was extremely dazzling.
The scholar rolled on the spot, and when he stood up, he dropped the crossbow in his hand, waved his sleeves, and the sleeve arrows shot out.
It's just that the person who drew the knife moved around even more, and actually dodged them all. The two knives went in together and stabbed him directly in the chest. If he was stabbed, it would not be a chill to the heart, but the fierce fire on the knife would burn all the internal organs to pieces.
Ash.
The scholar is indeed a person who often hangs out in the arena, and is very experienced in fighting the enemy. At the critical moment, he uses an iron bridge to fall backwards, dodging the two swords, and then exerts force with both hands and feet at the same time, with his back pressed against the ground.
Slide back.
The person who came was none other than Qi Xuansu, and it was no coincidence that he appeared here. After he separated from the shopkeeper in the city, he saw these three people sneaking behind the shopkeeper. He did not follow the shopkeeper here, but
Follow these three people to this place.
This can be regarded as the mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind.
Qi Xuansu didn't want to reveal his true identity, so he didn't use the "Dayan Spirit Sword" and just relied on his newly acquired double swords to chase down the scholar.
The scholar retreated quickly, and Qi Xuansu chased him even faster. When the sword was drawn out, the blade faintly vibrated with layers of subtle arcs, buzzing, and even the flames on the sword dispersed indefinitely. It seemed illusory and illusory, and it was really beautiful.
However, scholars know their own troubles. These swords are beautiful, but they are not showy. As long as they touch them, they will either die or be injured.
He had seen this boy, who was hired by the "inn" to go to the workshop. He was able to do business for two thousand Taiping, which already showed that his level of cultivation was quite good. The key is that he came back from the workshop alive, so
This illustrates the problem even more. It can be seen that this person is still an experienced veteran in the world of martial arts. This kind of person is the most difficult to deal with. Even if he is faced with a Taoist priest of the same realm, he has little chance of winning if he fights alone.
On the other side, without the restraints of the alchemist and scholar, the bald man was no match for the shopkeeper on his own, and was already at a disadvantage.
The fight between the two reached a fever pitch when the shopkeeper suddenly retracted his nine-section whip in his right hand, stretched out his left arm, and grasped the bald man's face with his palm. The bald man lay on the ground and rolled rapidly in the middle of his busy schedule, but he changed his moves quickly, with a face on his face.
He was caught by the shopkeeper's palm, and he couldn't breathe immediately. His face felt as if it had been cut with a knife, and he was in great pain.
He rolled out a few feet before jumping up. His heart was pounding wildly, and he knew that life and death were only separated by a thin line just now. If he caught it right now, he would have five more bloody holes in his face.
At this moment, the bald man felt a strong wind hitting his face again. Without thinking about it, he first protected his throat. Sure enough, the shopkeeper grabbed five fingers at the same time, and with a scraping sound, they passed by his throat, and five blood marks were found.
It really is only a momentary difference.
The shopkeeper's two moves were ineffective, and then he whirred with three whips. The move was extremely clever. The soft whip became more and more urgent. In an instant, it turned into a golden yellow cloud and wrapped the bald man in it. The strong man could only
The soft whip swept across and dodged here and there, encountering strange dangers one after another, and it was extremely embarrassing.
For a time, the bald man could only parry but had no power to fight back.
As for the scholar, his cultivation level is not as good as Qi Xuansu's, and he doesn't have the weapons at his disposal. Even if Qi Xuansu doesn't use the "Dayan Spirit Sword", he is not an opponent at all. He can just barely cope with it with his quick wit and cunning honed in many years of fighting in the world.
But there was always a time when he couldn't handle it any longer. With one mistake, Qi Xuansu twisted his sword with two swords, and his whole body was immediately cut into two pieces.
Many of the moves in this double-sword technique are like scissors, cutting two sections at a time. Qi Xuansu did not do this intentionally.
As for the magical power of the "Cicada Sloughing Technique", it is only available to Taoist disciples. Although it is also spread among the outside world, this scholar can't even afford a flying sword, so how can he afford the secret books of these magical powers.
Qi Xuansu leaned over and looked at the scholar's body. There was only a few dozen peace coins and some bottles and jars in a satchel, most of which were poison. This was reasonable. Traveling in the world was a living with your head tied to your belt.
He died without knowing which day, so few people kept a large amount of money and valuables on their bodies. Qi Xuansu did the same in the past. They all exchanged them for worry-free money and kept them with Qiniang. Later, Qi Xuansu found that it was easy to save money but difficult to withdraw it.
, then I stopped doing it.
The scholar had no other weapons except two crossbows and two sets of sleeve arrows. Qi Xuansu flipped up his robe again, revealing two rows of short knives at his waist. Each knife was half a foot long, and there were at least thirty of them.
Put it neatly on an embroidered Luan belt around your waist.
Qi Xuansu unceremoniously put the flying knife belt and peace money into his pocket, and took a look at the wounds on the scholar's body. Because of the fierce fire on the knife, it had been scorched black. The military officer of the man in black named him "Flame Knife"
"Although it doesn't sound very nice, it is straightforward, concise and clear. The only drawback is that it is difficult to inject true energy during a sneak attack at night, as it is too eye-catching.
After Qi Xuansu looked at the wound, he stopped injecting Qi into the knife. The flame on the knife gradually extinguished and returned to its original appearance. Qi Xuansu put the two swords back behind his waist, picked up his "Dragon Hand Gun" and walked towards the alchemist.
's corpse.
To Qi Xuansu's expectation, except for a compass, a few talismans and some medicine, the alchemist had nothing of value on him. He must have hidden it somewhere, and I don't know who will benefit from it in the future.
At this time, the shopkeeper suddenly let out a loud roar, and unfolded the golden nine-section whip in his hand. In the shadow of the whip, the bald man was forced to retreat.
It's just that the martial artist's combat prowess at the innate human stage is one of the best. If the Qi Master didn't have the magical power of flying swords, he would still be below him. Although he was defeated, he was still trying to hold on.
Qi Xuansu sighed, jumped up behind the bald man, and smashed his spine with just one punch, and then punched him again on the back of his heart, giving him a good blow, but it would not be worse than death.
.
It took at most two sticks of incense before all three of them died in Qi Xuansu's hands.
No wonder Zhang Yuelu said that Qi Xuansu was full of murderous intent. In terms of the number of human lives taken, Zhang Yuelu was not half as good as Qi Xuansu. But in terms of quality, Zhang Yuelu was even better.
But then again, these three people are doing this kind of business, killing people and stealing goods, so they deserve to die.
Qi Xuansu glanced at the strong man and realized that the armor on his body was worth some money, but he already had enough bits and pieces on him and there was really nothing he could do to take it away.
The shopkeeper took a breath. Although he was still a little defensive, he was still polite. He held the nine-section whip in both hands and said, "Thank you Brother Wei for the rescue. I will never forget your kindness. I will definitely repay you in the future."
Qi Xuansu waved his hand: "It doesn't have to be later, just now."
The shopkeeper's expression changed slightly, and he was a little surprised and uncertain, fearing that Qi Xuansu was going to have a yellow bird behind him.
Qi Xuansu got straight to the point: "Shopkeeper, do you still remember why I went to your branch?"
The shopkeeper was startled and then understood: "Bai Yutang?"
Qi Xuansu nodded and said: "Exactly."
The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and said everything he knew: "Since Brother Wei asked, I can't hide it. Brother Wei should know that Bai Yutang is not a mansion, but a gathering. It has no fixed place and no fixed time.
They will change their hiding places. I know one of their hiding places, but I can't guarantee that they are still there."
Qi Xuansu nodded to express understanding and said: "Then please tell the shopkeeper the location of this place to me, so that we don't owe each other anything."
Without saying a word, the shopkeeper took out a sheepskin map from the Xumi object and handed it to Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu took the map and glanced at it. The map was not very large, probably around the Cuowenbu area. Somewhere east of Cuowenbu, he drew a circle with a red pen.
The shopkeeper pointed to the circle and said: "This is it. Brother Wei had better go there as soon as possible, maybe you can still catch up. If you go late, I'm afraid they have already left."
Qi Xuansu nodded, put away the map, tied the armor to his legs, turned around and left.
The shopkeeper looked at Qi Xuansu's retreating figure, then looked at the three corpses on the ground, and continued on his way.
He was going to the branch in Xiping Mansion, where there were also experts from the "Inn". Once there, he would be safe.
…
Cuowenbu means blue sea.
The fact that it can be called a "sea" shows how big it is.
A huge warship is floating on the blue lake at this time. The hull is about a hundred feet long. Even on the vast misty Cuowenbu Lake, it does not look small at all. It looks like a small boat floating in a small lake.
.
If the boat is big, the lake will be big, and if the boat is small, the lake will be small.
This is the warship of the Daomen. The Daomen call it "Yinglong". The keel of the hull is spliced with the bones of three dragons. Its core drive is also the dragon ball of three dragons. Its size is even larger than the imperial armored ship "Qinglong".
It's just that the number of such warships is too small. In terms of fleet size, the imperial court's maritime fleet is larger.
The consumption of such a giant ship can be imagined, so after Shangguanjing killed the "Great Asura", he came to Cuowenbu to replenish water.
Shangguan Jing stood on the bow of the boat, looking out at the vast lake.
Yongzhou is not far from Kunlun. If something unexpected happens, reinforcements will arrive soon. However, if there is a problem within Dao Sect, reinforcements may never arrive in time.
Will it get to that point?
Should we report it to Tiangang Hall? The key point is that there is no evidence. Is the whole article just speculation, maybe, should, probably? Some things can be said in private, but cannot be said in writing.
Moreover, this is Jinque's decision, and Tiangangtang has no right to withdraw from Yujing just like this.
At this moment, a line of black cloud came from the end of the sky.
