The wandering Taoist priest He Gan rushed up again like a ghost. At the same time, black energy spread outside his body, forming countless ghosts around him.

"S-Hakki Yakou!"

The wandering Taoist priest He Gan caught up with Liu Xin at an extremely fast speed, and then launched an attack together with the ghosts around him!

However, Liu Xin had already pulled back, raised the Dao-breaking sword, and a bright sword light shot into the sky, killing all the ghosts!

Ding!

After all, the wandering Taoist priest He Gan still had his sense. After his body technique was broken, he immediately drew his sword. The peach wood sword was as fast as thunder, several times faster than before. At this time, it was on par with Liu Xin who had activated [Speed ​​Pulse].

Moreover, He Gan, the wandering Taoist priest, had abandoned his whisk, and kept waving black palm prints with his other hand. The black energy was lingering, and it was not a simple attack at first glance, but Liu Xin turned a blind eye to these palm techniques and directly used his body to Resist hard.

Palm prints emitting dark mist fell on Liu Xin's body. The black air tried to penetrate Liu Xin's acupuncture points, but was blocked by the golden light of Liu Xin's body.

It is the protective divine light of Fudo Myooh.

Liu Xin's defense was impeccable, and the training of the fifth-level Fudo Ming King allowed him to resist He Gan's attack in a short period of time.

However, He Gan's attacks seemed to have no end.

His mind was insidious and cunning, and he used the flexibility of his movements to constantly shuttle around Liu Xin, trying to find opportunities to be broken.

Liu Xin's Dao-breaking sword cut through the long night. The sword was as fast as thunder. He Gan, the wandering Taoist priest, dodged repeatedly, but the sword was pointed directly at his chest.

The wandering Taoist priest looked up and saw that Liu Xin had closed his eyes at some point and was fighting entirely based on his feelings.

In this way, Baigui Yixing's deception methods will be useless.

Liu Xin took a deep breath, and an incomparable power surged in his body.

The sword light condensed into a beam, he took a firm step and used his strongest killing move 'Thunder Drink' to strike decisively!

A flash of surprise flashed in the eyes of He Gan, the wandering Taoist priest, and he felt the coming threat.

He quickly used his ultimate body skills to dodge Liu Xin's attack. At the same time, the peach wood sword in his hand turned into an afterimage, trying to resist Liu Xin's sword energy.

However, to his surprise, Liu Xin's attack actually contained infinite power, and his sword energy was like thunder, unstoppable.

The move of the wandering Taoist He Gan was instantly defeated. He was struck by the sword energy and his robe was torn. The moonlight above his head reflected his ferocious face.

"ah!"

Taoist You Fang's entire body seemed to be filled with black energy. The muscles on his arms were knotted and veins were constantly jumping. The black energy penetrated all four limbs along the meridians at an extremely fast speed.

puff!

Liu Xin's sword penetrated the shoulder blade of the wandering Taoist priest He Gan, but the latter used the bones on his shoulder to block the sword.

You must know that the Dao-Breaking Sword is extremely sharp.

But he was still briefly imprisoned by the latter using flesh and blood.

Liu Xin was slightly shocked when he saw He Gan, a wandering Taoist priest whose eyes were filled with black energy and was not a normal person.

"Possessed by the Sword Demon, Yaksha Sword!"

A black sword light suddenly appeared, hidden in the night, easily undetectable.

Liu Xin has closed his eyes and opened his mind.

This sword was extremely concealed and extremely fast, but the Dao-breaking sword in his hand was still stuck on the opponent's shoulder blade.

If he abandons the Dao-Breaking Sword in his hand, then his battle can almost be said to be a failure.

Whether the opponent leaves with the Pathbreaking Sword or seizes the sword and continues to attack him.

He's all a loser.

But if he didn't let go, he would have to resist the sword with his body.

I didn't expect that the situation would change so drastically in an instant.

But Liu Xin will definitely not abandon the sword in his hand. Even if he is injured, he will keep the sword in his hand.

It's not that he is reluctant to part with the Dao-Breaking Sword in his hand, but because only by holding the sword can he achieve the final victory.

At the critical moment, a sword light seemed to shoot out from the moonlight, directly hitting the fatal sword of the wandering Taoist priest He Gan.

Ding!

The peach wood sword of the wandering Taoist priest He Gan was repulsed, and Liu Xin also took the opportunity to withdraw the Taoist sword from the body of the wandering Taoist priest He Gan.

At the same time, he kicked out, directly hitting the chest of He Gan, the wandering Taoist priest.

He Gan, a wandering Taoist priest, did not expect such a change.

The person who came was naturally Senior Brother Cheng.

He was released in the afternoon. In fact, he was not tortured in the prison.

On the contrary, life was going pretty well, with food and wine being served every day.

When he was released from prison, he first went to Qianhusuo and Liufu, but he could not find Liu Xin.

Later, when I returned to Qianhu Station, I happened to meet Luo Bei and found out that he had gone on a mission.

Then he found this place through the covert investigation team.

Because the secret investigation team got the news, this is probably an important stronghold of the White Lotus Sect.

Although he has confidence in Liu Xin's strength, his opponent is the White Lotus Sect after all. There are many masters, no matter who they are, they may capsize in the gutter.

Just in case, he still came here in person.

As soon as he arrived, he found that the Jinyi guards outside were already fighting with others.

This mansion was actually equipped with a powerful crossbow, and for a while the imperial guards outside were unable to rush in.

At this time, Senior Brother Cheng already knew something was wrong.

So he broke out alone and came here, and happened to encounter a fatal blow from the Taoist priest He Gan.

Senior Brother Cheng took action decisively and blocked the sword.

He Gan, the wandering Taoist priest, was very decisive when he saw Liu Xin's helpers. He laughed strangely and fled at a very fast speed.

With the wandering Taoist priest He Gan's walking skills of hundreds of ghosts at night, it was generally impossible for Senior Brother Cheng to catch up, but he still followed.

"Don't chase the poor bandits!"

Liu Xin shouted from behind.

Senior Brother Cheng left a word without looking back.

"This guy can't last long!"

Before Liu Xin had time to persuade him to stay, Senior Brother Cheng's figure had disappeared on the other side of the wall.

Liu Xin knew why Senior Brother Cheng did this.

The latter is still thinking about him and wants to help him and get some credit.

Liu Xin suddenly felt that he had sublimated. In the past, he only regarded the other party as his senior brother, and more often as a cooperative relationship.

But now he can easily feel that Senior Brother Cheng has given to him without expecting anything in return. He can't put his finger on this feeling, but it is definitely not an ordinary cooperation.

Liu Xin let out a sigh of relief. He had just resisted the palm technique of He Gan, a wandering Taoist priest. Although the black energy did not invade his body, the palm power was still there after all. He suffered some shocks, and the blood in his body was surging. He must Calm down as soon as possible.

This was also the reason why he didn't catch up. The injuries in his body were originally because he was prepared to take down the wandering Taoist priest He Gan even though he was injured.

But after hard work, he found that the wandering Taoist priest He Gan also had a lot of trump cards, and the two sides were still in a stalemate.

Until the end, even if Liu Xin had used up all his cards, he still could not gain an absolute advantage.

Only then will there be the last thrilling scene.

If Senior Brother Chen hadn't come to the rescue, he would have been seriously injured at least at this time.

Even the wandering Taoist priest He Gan will definitely continue to take action, and it is not impossible for him, Liu Xin, to explain here today.

This was the first life-and-death crisis he had encountered since his cultivation.

This also made him feel proud and restrained.

He is a genius, and he is also an authentic senior brother. He has no shortage of talent and resources.

Therefore, he has always been able to fight beyond the level.

Today's defeat was a wake-up call in his heart.

Fortunately, there is Senior Brother Cheng, otherwise he would be the one who capsized in the gutter.

However, it seems inappropriate to compare the wandering Taoist He Gan to a sewer. The opponent's true combat power has reached the peak of the middle-grade Dacheng realm.

"The evil ways and evil arts...the world is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. I can't look down on anyone!

You still have to step up your practice and break through to the middle-grade Dacheng realm as soon as possible! "

When Liu Xin finished adjusting his breath, he saw Kou Gang limping over.

"Master Kou, you have also met the missionary of the White Lotus Sect."

Kou Gang nodded and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"I encountered a hard idea!"

Kou just finished speaking and stopped talking. Liu Xin knew it by looking at his violent chest heaving. The former was seriously injured.

The two met in the backyard, and the sound of people finally came from the atrium.

Soon a group of Jinyi guards rushed in holding torches, led by Guo Yong.

Guo Yong came to Liu Xin and said:

"Sir, we just encountered a group of thieves.

Stopped us in the front yard.

Although the walls of this courtyard are short, there are secrets hidden inside. They are actually several walls hiding soldiers. "

Generally speaking, only those fortresses at the border will be specially built to hide soldiers.

Liu Xin nodded. He felt more and more that the owner of this house was involved in many cases.

If you think about it carefully, is this person also related to Wang Zhongjie?

Liu Xin glanced at Kou Gang and said:

"Master Kou, I got some information here. The owner of this house must have a big problem.

This courtyard actually has military facilities such as a hidden soldier wall.

It seems that the other party is very considerate of this house.

Maybe we should search the yard carefully. "

Kou Gang nodded and said nothing.

Under the light of the torch, Liu Xin found that Kou Gang's face was a little pale.

Compared to himself, Kou Gang seemed to be more seriously injured.

Kou Gang's cultivation level is not bad, at least Liu Xin is not sure that he can defeat the opponent 100%. After all, this is also an old silver coin.

Liu Xin ordered Guo Yong to lead a search, and Guo Yong also reported the casualties to them.

The resistance they encountered was very tough. There were about forty or fifty people from the White Lotus Sect.

He even had a short crossbow in his hand. Generally speaking, even among the pro-army, only the Yulin Army guarding the Imperial City and the Jinyi Guard Nanzhen Fusi were qualified to wear a small number of weapons of this level.

Moreover, this kind of quota is reserved for dedicated people, and there is also a special distribution and use list, and the crossbow arrows are also marked.

Other than that, only the military can have it.

Since the other party was able to obtain the short crossbow, it meant that his penetration of the imperial capital was already very powerful.

It may even be involved in the military. The structure of the hidden soldier wall is only circulated among the military, so this possibility is almost certain.

Guo Yong brought a broken short crossbow in front of Liu Xin and Kou Gang.

Kou Gang took it and examined it carefully. He was more experienced.

After a brief inspection, Kou Gang found a string of words on a corner of the short crossbow.

Kou Gang said:

"This seems to be a short crossbow in the Forbidden Army. This number should belong to the Forbidden Army!"

After finishing speaking, Kou Gang's face couldn't help but become solemn. Jin Yiwei had no right to investigate the army.

Dongchang may be able to do so, but Jinyiwei is strictly prohibited from interfering with the military.

The internal affairs of the military are handled by their special department "Sima".

Liu Xin said without hesitation:

“It seems that our opponent is really powerful, even the Forbidden Army has his people.

In other words, at least his tentacles have reached into the Forbidden Army. "

Kou Gang nodded in agreement.

Then he ordered his subordinates:

“Keep the bodies of all thieves properly and inspect them one by one afterwards.

The main thing is to see if there are any special marks on their bodies.

Are there any calluses on their arms, palms, etc.? "

"yes!"

Several of Kou Gang's subordinates took the order and went.

Kou Gang saw Liu Xin looking over and immediately explained:

“You can tell what kind of training they have received by looking at the calluses on their arms and palms.

For example, cavalrymen who ride horses all year round will have deep calluses on the inner thighs.

Soldiers who are good at bows and arrows will have deeper calluses at the tiger's mouth. "

When Liu Xin heard this, he realized that was the case.

While the two were talking, Guo Yong came to report:

"Liu Qianshi, Lord Kou, we found a secret entrance in the backyard garden.

The underground passage at this secret entrance looks very deep. We dare not go down easily for fear of traps.

Therefore, I have come here to ask for advice from two adults. "

Kou Gang glanced at Guo Yong without saying anything, turned his head directly and ordered to his subordinates:

"Send someone down to take a look. The distance between a group of two people cannot be more than fifty meters.

If you encounter any situation, please contact us at any time.

At the same time, everyone who enters the secret path will be rewarded with two taels of silver, and their credit will be doubled afterwards! "

After the men got the order, they immediately went to do it.

Liu Xin raised his eyebrows, realizing that Kou Gang's order was undoubtedly to take human lives to cover possible dangers.

Kou Gang saw Liu Xin's look and immediately understood what he was thinking, but he didn't explain much.

This is the difference in how everyone does things.

He pays more attention to the results of things, and the process is not important.

For Kou Gang, he knew that Liu Xin would eventually become like him.

Liu Xin may have thoughts in his mind now, but it's just because he is too young.

Liu Xin and Kou Gang didn't delay and went directly to the hidden entrance.

This place is very secretive. It is actually located behind a rockery. You need to move the rockery to find it.

This rockery looks very heavy, but in fact it can be pushed away with a gentle push.

Guo Yong said that he was able to discover this secret room thanks to Kou Gang.

If Kou Gang hadn't knocked this rockery away during the battle, our people might not have discovered the clues here.

Liu Xin looked at the pale look on Kou Gang's face, and then looked at the mess in the backyard garden, and knew that the previous battle was tragic.

Except for the fake rockery hidden at the secret entrance, everything else is real. However, many of those huge stone rockeries weighing thousands of kilograms have broken and moved sideways at this time. God knows how manpower can do all this. of.

Liu Xin did not ask Kou Gang about the specific battle situation, but he thought that the man who came to fight Kou Gang still escaped, otherwise he would definitely see a tragic corpse lying here.

Kou Gang was not someone whose trial would be postponed. He was so seriously injured. How could he not be killed on the spot?

Liu Xin and Kou Gang came to the entrance of the cave and looked at the dark entrance, unable to see the depth.

This cave entrance is extremely spacious, with a length and width of more than five feet square.

Such a hole can be entered and exited almost effortlessly. Now I just don't know how far this hole is. Is it a secret room or a secret passage underneath?

At this time, Kou Gang's men had already gone down in two groups. According to the fifty-meter group he had ordered before, this secret passage would be at least several hundred meters long. Such a big deal cannot be accomplished with money.

How to transport the soil from the secret tunnel without being discovered is an extremely difficult task.

As the third group of people entered, Liu Xin couldn't wait any longer, so he followed the third group of people into the tunnel.

Kou Gang watched this scene without saying a word. Young people are still young people. If the other party really sets any trap inside, you will die if you go down.

However, Kou Gang did not stop him, and Guo Yong followed his family members into the tunnel.

There is a bit of moisture in the tunnel. It seems that the tunnel is dug too deep. Moreover, no one comes in or out on weekdays, and there is sticky mud underfoot.

The surroundings of the tunnel are supported by solid wood, which is quite solid, so there is no need to worry about the tunnel collapsing.

But these solid wood piles made Liu Xin's face darken.

So many wooden piles mean that this secret passage will definitely not be dug in a short time.

This amount of wood is a very scary amount. If such a large batch of wood suddenly appears in the Imperial City, it will definitely arouse suspicion.

Liu Xin followed two of Kou Gang's men. We walked another fifty or sixty meters.

There is a branch road ahead!

This tunnel constantly refreshed Liu Xin's understanding.

Liu Xin and Guo Yong went to a bifurcated tunnel separately.

It was not until about a quarter of an hour passed that Liu Xin had advanced a full kilometer, and an exit finally appeared in front of him.

At this exit, the two captains of the Imperial Guard had already drawn their sabers, but did not rush out.

Liu Xin came to them, patted them both on the shoulders, and then took out the Dao Breaking Sword.

The Dao-Breaking Sword easily cut through the wooden board above. Liu Xinxin gathered his inner strength and slapped it with one palm.

The board did not explode because Liu Xin used Qiao Jin.

The two pieces of wood split into two fell gently towards both sides without making much noise.

Liu Xin concentrated for a moment, but there was no movement at all outside. Instead, there were cicadas chirping and frogs croaking.

Is this exit in a suburb?

Liu Xin took the lead to leave the exit, and after coming out, he was indeed in a suburb.

Liu Xin even saw the hill not far away.

That's not Langmeng Mountain, the mountain where Wang Zhongjie hides!

Looking back at the tunnel exit, two captains of the Imperial Guard had climbed out.

This exit is connected to that mansion, and the location of this exit is close to Langmeng Mountain.

There seems to be a connection between Wang Zhongjie, the White Lotus Sect, and the mansion.

"The water in the Imperial Capital is really muddy!"

Liu Xin couldn't help but pinch his eyebrows. The nonsense going on in the court was really complicated and terrifying, and he even recoiled from it.

The world is still interesting. If you don't like it, just cut it off and you will die.

Liu Xin really wanted to show off.

The fourth senior brother's word was really well invented, and it simply touched Liu Xin's heart.
