"This Lianyung City has become increasingly unstable recently." The middle-aged Taoist friend opposite sighed after finishing the last bite of his meal.
"Hiccup~"
Chen Ping burped:
"What happened again?"
"That's not true, hey." The middle-aged fellow Taoist sighed, hesitated to speak, hesitated for a moment and then spoke in a low voice:
"To be honest with you fellow Taoist, I suspect that I am being targeted."
Chen Ping was stunned for a moment:
"Did fellow Taoist offend someone?"
The middle-aged fellow Taoist shook his head and whispered:
"This monk didn't think about it. I don't know when I offended him. A few days ago, there was a monk who kept appearing on this street. I didn't take it seriously at first. I just thought he was a neighbor. Later I found out that he was not a neighbor, but someone who went there. Over there, Taoist friend Zhang Zheng asked for advice on his skills. Logically speaking, this is nothing unusual, but to be honest, Taoist friend, I always feel like he is staring at me with one eye."
"Hey, my intuition is very accurate. By the way, that fellow Taoist has eyes like an eagle and a high forehead. Have you ever seen that fellow Taoist Chen?" the middle-aged fellow Taoist added.
Zhang Zhengjia?
Ask for skills?
Chen Ping's pupils narrowed.
According to the description of this fellow Taoist from the neighborhood, that person must be Eagle Eye Situ Shan.
Do you need to come here often to discuss Zhang Zheng’s three-legged cat skills?
This fellow Taoist neighbor felt that he was being targeted by Situ Shan, but the fellow Taoist neighbor did not recognize Situ Shan.
...wrong.
Chen Ping's heart trembled.
I’m afraid it’s not this neighbor Taoist friend that Situ Shan is targeting, but me.
I'm being targeted.
No wonder that when I saw Situ Shan just now, I felt something was wrong with his eyes, so I just waited here.
But.
Why?
Zhang Zheng sold me? Then Situ Shan set his sights on my wealth? But Zhang Zheng doesn’t know what the success rate of my talisman skin is.
Situ Shan holds a grudge because he didn't get my skills in vain?
So much so?
No, no.
There must be clues somewhere that I'm not privy to.
But the only intersection between Situ Shan and I is the talisman...other than that, nothing else.
Talisman skin?
It stands to reason that even if my talisman skills were exposed, Qi Jianglun still told me that he, Situ Shan, and I were both apprentices. Why was this so?
Chen Ping took a look at the spicy rabbit head in the bowl, and suddenly felt that the rabbit was no longer fragrant.
The more he thought about it, the more panicked he became. He calmly chatted with the middle-aged fellow Taoist neighbor for a few more words, comforted the neighbor, and then returned to the house.
I looked at the sky outside through the window. The sun was setting in the west, and the sunset reflected most of the sky red. It was estimated that it would still be some time before dark at this moment.
There's a lot more you can do.
This matter must be clarified, otherwise it will be like a thorn in the back, and you will not be able to sleep peacefully tonight.
Chen Ping frowned and breathed a sigh of relief. He glanced at the direction of Zhang Zheng's house, turned around and stabilized the dagger and talismans all over his body.
After checking the hidden equipment on his body, he changed his face.
Then he slipped out while no one was paying attention.
After Situ Shan came out of Zhang Zheng's house, he followed him from a distance.
After turning a few streets, Chen Ping slowly tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword, because what Situ Shan was walking on was not the way home, but a deserted alley that was rarely visited by people.
When he turned a corner, Chen Ping paused for a moment, and then decisively performed a set of cloud steps, instantly pulling out several irregular afterimages in the air in the alley.
The afterimage flew with the long sword and instantly moved 90 degrees. The long sword flashed with cold light, and the seventh form of the Breeze Nine Swords was as fast as a snake, but did not make a sound.
Situ Shan, who was hiding in the corner and in an attacking posture, had his arms broken in an instant.
Situ Shan didn't have time to panic when he saw the third sword piercing his lower abdomen.
Situ Shan was carried backwards by Jian Gang, hit the wall heavily, and fell to the ground again.
"Who are you? Why are you following me?" Situ Shan struggled to support himself with his legs, leaning against the corner to breathe.
Situ Shan looked at his arms and then at his lower abdomen.
I knew I was afraid there was no way out.
The mouth was spitting out blood and foam, but he actually laughed: "Hahaha, the calamity actually happened to me, good job."
Then there was another gasp.
Violent vomiting of blood due to laughter.
Chen Ping walked over slowly holding a long sword and looked at Situ Shan coldly. He has practiced Qi at the third level and has the strength to kill at the fifth level, but Situ Shan has only practiced Qi at the second level and is not afraid of Situ Shan at all. This is why he dares to face Situ Shan directly.
"Why are you staring at Chen Ping?" Chen Ping said calmly.
Hearing this, Situ Shan's pupils narrowed:
"Are you...Chen Ping?"
Situ Shan subconsciously wanted to straighten his body, but this fierce movement of getting up only brought him heart-breaking pain. His body couldn't help but tremble, but he couldn't stand up at all.
Situ Shan's eyes widened, as if he had seen a ghost.
Isn’t Chen Ping at the first level of Qi training?
When did you have such a mysterious ability?
He didn't even have a chance to draw his sword in front of him.
"Now I'm asking you a question." Chen Ping's face was dark.
Situ Shan looked at his injuries again and suddenly laughed:
"Since I can't live, why should I tell you? Haha, you're dead. You made that talisman, right? I knew it, but that old guy didn't believe it. Haha, you're dead, kill me Do you think you can survive? You are dead. Haha."
"Pfft."
A sword cut across his throat, and Situ Shan's voice stopped abruptly.
really.
Damn it.
As expected, it was because Fu Pi was targeting me.
Chen Ping quickly took care of the scene, cleaning up all traces of his existence, and then followed the fixed process - touching the body.
Finally, he threw Situ Shan into an abandoned and dilapidated house on one side, and even buried it with debris.
You chose a good place.
Fellow.
After finishing all this, Chen Ping quickly evacuated the scene. After turning around a few abandoned houses, he hid in a corner and changed his face. After crossing a few streets, he changed his face again.
Chen Ping did not go home.
Start thinking quickly about the situation.
Situ Shan said that I was dead. This was definitely not a threat due to his desire to survive before his death. Instead, he knew he was dead. '
'His smile was vindictive. '
'In other words, there is someone behind him. '
Chen Ping has a toothache.
What I was most afraid of at the beginning was killing the young to bring the old, and killing the old to bring the ancients.
Unexpectedly, it finally reached such a point.
'According to Situ Shan's last words, Situ Shan did not target me simply because he wanted money. The meaning revealed in his words was related to the talisman skin. From this point of view, this is not the behavior of Situ Shan alone. '
'The people behind Situ Shan at least know that Situ Shan is following me. '
'But who is the man behind this? I'm not sure. '
'The enemy is in the dark, I am in the light. '
Chen Ping raised his head and glanced at the burning clouds in the sky, which looked like a bloody battlefield.
Isn't this the case with his current situation?
...I’m afraid I can’t stay in Lianyuncheng any longer.
Chen Ping turned to look at the West District.
He gritted his teeth and headed west.
