After four o'clock in the morning, the back door of a compound in Qingping Town suddenly opened, and three tightly sealed carriages filed out, rushing in three directions on the street. One of the cars stopped at the back door of an inn. The man in black driving the car knocked on the shaft of the car with a riding crop and said in a deep voice: "We're here."
The curtain of the car was raised and eight masked men in red came out from inside. The leader opened the door and entered the courtyard and stood there. He waited until the last person came in and closed the door before he said, "You've seen what happened tonight, you'd better do it." It’s all rotten in the stomach, and we all know what we should do in the future, so we should pack up and disperse before dawn.”
The people behind him cupped their hands, and the two people next to him nodded, and then they went to their own rooms. The man in red in the middle took a deep breath and shook his red robe. The word "Q" was clearly embroidered in black thread on his left chest, which was the missing mark of the Blood Shadow Sect.
At this moment, Di Que calmed down and walked towards the only room with lights on in the inn. Fang De pushed the door open and went in. Mu Feng, who was still restless just now, quickly clasped his fists and saluted. Di Que glanced at him coldly and did not return the gift. He just said lightly: "The master of your business will take over the task. I will be leaving soon, so you can do whatever you want." After saying this, he didn't wait for the other party to reply. , turned around and went out again. After a while, he suddenly heard the sound of breaking wind in the courtyard again, and saw blood shadows passing through the wall and escaping across the courtyard.
Mu Feng was stunned in the room for a while, secretly disappointed in his heart. He never expected that Xuekui would not see him. He raised his head to see outside the window that all the people from the Blood Shadow Sect had left. He gritted his teeth and did not want to stay here for a long time. , got up and packed his bags, just waiting to go back to Xixia for a while.
It is the darkest time before dawn. Mu Feng also took advantage of this time to jump out of the inn and ran for two or three miles in one breath. When he arrived at the town entrance, he hid behind a room and inquired carefully, looking around. After seeing that no one was following, he took the official road again and headed northwest. When the sky was slightly bright, he did not dare to leave the official road. He plunged into the roadside and walked through the forest and cross-country to hide his figure. This walk was another ten miles.
Seeing that the sky was getting brighter, there was a faint village in front, and smoke was rising from the kitchen. Mu Feng saw that there was no one in front and behind him, and he felt relieved. Now he touched his hungry belly and tightened his belt. Just go to the village to find some food.
After walking for more than ten steps, something suddenly changed. Behind a big tree beside the path, he suddenly heard a scream, and a locust stone hit him directly at the crook of his leg with the sound of wind. The whole journey was uneventful, which made him let down his guard just now. How could he expect that he would be attacked again here? He couldn't dodge for a moment and was beaten upright. He bent his right leg and knelt down. This shock shocked him to the core. Just as he was about to stand up, two steel darts flew out and nailed his shoulders, stabbing the acupuncture points and making his arms unable to move.
At this moment, the man behind the tree came out, and at first sight, he could be someone other than Xiao Ning. At this time, Xiao Ning no longer looked like a jade tree facing the wind. Her hair was tied crookedly, there was little blood on her face, her eyelids were swollen, but her eyes were bloodshot. It was obvious that she had not slept well in the past few days, and her clothes were stained. It's blood. But at this time, the right hand holding the knife was still steady. The steel knife in his hand was placed on Mu Feng's neck. He gritted his teeth and said: "Old boy, let me catch you. Let me see where you go."
Mu Feng knelt on his knees, unable to move his arms. He was so frightened that his face turned blue, and his lips were trembling as he said: "Young hero, have mercy on me. It was not my intention to chase Yu Daxia that day. It was just forced by the Shenyin Sect. , I have no choice but to accompany you, young hero, please spare my life."
"Hmph," Xiao Ning smiled coldly, "It wasn't your intention? If it wasn't your intention, you can be very ruthless. I, Uncle Yu, had two sword wounds on his chest, one of which went straight into his heart. I'm afraid that was what you did! "
Mu Feng's face turned pale after hearing this, his body felt like chaff for a moment, he opened his mouth and was speechless. A cold light flashed in Xiao Ning's eyes, and he shouted: "Go to hell!" The steel knife suddenly slashed horizontally, cutting his throat on the spot, and you could see how far the blood spattered from the cavity.
Seeing the corpse lying on the road, Xiao Ning lowered his sword and his eyes turned red. Tears ran down his cheeks for a moment. Soon after, he sat down on the ground and started to cry loudly. After a long time, his voice became hoarse, and then he gradually stopped. Crying, but also choking.
He sat in a daze on the road for more than half an hour. Then he wiped the remaining tears on his face and stood up. He looked down and saw that the blood on the road had flowed like a stream. He snorted and cut it with a knife. Mu Feng took his head and pulled his coat into a package. When he saw the pair of daggers on his waist, he couldn't help but frowned. He remembered that during the battle in front of the ancestral hall, his pair of daggers had been thrown out to stop him. When did this happen? Got another pair of weapons. He picked it up casually and took it out. He saw a cold air as if frost hit his face. The blade of the sword was as bright as a pool of autumn water reflected in the sun. It was able to blow through the hair. It was also a rare sharp weapon. You were not polite at this moment and stuffed it into the package. Among them, he casually threw the corpses on the ground into the jungle beside the road, leaving them to be eaten by jackals and wild dogs. At this moment, he looked up at the sky, identified the direction of Xiangzhou City, and jumped away.
Xiao Ning's pursuit that day was from the south of Xiangzhou City to the northwest of Xiangzhou. Although he went around half a circle, he was still much closer to the city. Halfway through, he had to wear clean clothes and wash up a little. The sky turned dark as he rushed all the way. The city gate is not dark yet and I can vaguely look at it again. At this moment, he lowered his head to see that the package in his hand was still tight. While the city gate was still open, Xiao Ning hurriedly sneaked into the city.
When he arrived in the city, Xiao Ning was dumbfounded. Xiangzhou was originally a big city, bordered by the Han River to the north, Huguang to the south, Bashu to the west, and all roads south of the Yangtze River to the east. It had been a battleground for military strategists throughout the ages, so how could it be such a small country town? The town is comparable. Standing in the city and looking at the streets extending in all directions, even though the lights were on, the streets were still crowded with people. He didn't know where to go for a moment. Although he had an appointment with Wang Wei, who could know what would happen in the meantime? There were so many things happening, and no place to meet was decided at that time. There was no other option for the time being, so now I could only find an inn to settle down for the time being, tidy up a little before going out on the streets to search.
Three or four days had passed since the day of the battle at the ancestral hall. Xiao Ning knew that there was no rush, but the horses and luggage were not around, and many useful things were missing. Walking on the street, the aroma wafting from the restaurants on both sides also made his stomach growl because he had not eaten all day. At this time, he had just spotted a restaurant and wanted to go there. Suddenly he saw two beggars at the corner of the street. Squatting on the ground waiting for someone to give alms, I couldn't help but smile. I suddenly had an idea in my mind, and stopped eating for the time being. I stepped forward and squatted down, and put down a dime of broken silver in a broken bowl on the ground.
The two beggars were startled and hurriedly raised their heads to look. At this time, Xiao Ning smiled and clasped his fists, "I'd like to invite you two. I wonder which hall you belong to?"
One of the older beggars darkened slightly when he heard this, his eyes flashed, and he clasped his fists and said, "I don't know which path my friend is on, why are you asking these questions?"
Xiao Ning still smiled and said: "I fought side by side with your gang leader a few days ago. I didn't want to be distracted by something that day, so I came here today to find out where your gang leader is and would like to meet again. If you two know anything about it, please let me know."
The beggar looked at him carefully for a long time, and then asked hesitantly: "Are you Xiao Ning, Young Master Xiao?"
"That's right." Xiao Ning nodded.
"Okay, okay." Now the beggar stood up in a hurry, "The gang leader and the great hero Shen Dao Sect King are in the city. They have ordered us to come down and take you over as soon as they see you. You come with me." He said that he didn't care. The young beggar on the ground turned around and left with Xiao Ning.
Crossing two streets in a row, I saw several inns in front of me. Not far away, there was a group of people surrounding the road looking at something, and there was a faint noise coming from inside. Xiao Ning was in a hurry to find Wang Wei. When he first passed by, he didn't want to do anything, so he accidentally glanced inside. There was someone in the circle who seemed to be Shao Hongmei. Now Xiao Ning did not dare to neglect, and pulled the beggar who was leading the way to point into the crowd. The beggar was stunned, looked in the direction Xiao Ning pointed, and exclaimed: "Miss Shao!" Turning around to look at Xiao Ning, I didn’t know what to do for a moment.
Xiao Ning smiled slightly, walked towards the crowd and looked inside, and saw a young man in the crowd who looked to be in his twenties or thirties. He was quite handsome, but unfortunately he was dressed with oily hair and pink face, wearing a pink gown, and in his right hand was a He patted the palm of his left hand lightly with a folding fan, and with a smile on his face, he led three or five big men to stop the two women. One of them was Na Shao Nuxia, and the other Xiao Ning didn't recognize it for a moment, but after taking a closer look, she almost became happy. The sound came, and now a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. The beggar next to him also came over to take a look inside, and exclaimed: "Miss Wang!" Upon hearing this, Xiao Ning quickly turned around, put her index finger on her lips and let out a soft shush.
Looking at the circle, the young man slapped his fan and said with a playful smile: "Why are you two doing this? I have no other intentions. I just want to make friends with these two girls. Why do you have to be so angry, little girl?" Woolen cloth."
Looking down, Miss Wang Chuyue dropped a bunch of candied haws under her feet, but she stared at her like an angry female leopard, "Who do you think you are? You dare to touch my aunt? I won't interrupt you today." Kill your dog legs!"
Shao Hongmei on the side also had a sinking look on her face, but she held Chu Yue's arm with one hand and said, "Chu Yue can't be reckless, ask first."
"Hey, this little girl is right. Do you have to ask me clearly? I have to ask you two Fangmings where the fairyland is." She said frivolously and raised her fan to Hongmei's chin.
At this moment, Miss Shao was filled with anger, her eyebrows stood up, and she stretched out her hand to slap the opponent's folding fan. Suddenly, she heard a crisp "snap" sound, and the palm and the fan separated at the slightest touch. Hongmei originally used three points of her true energy and wanted to slap the opponent's fan away with one palm, but Luo Naden Tuzi's face was unexpectedly thrown into the sea. The opponent's folding fan was only gently withdrawn, but her palms were numb from the shock.
After the two exchanged blows, their expressions became solemn. Shao Hongmei let go of Chu Yue's hand and shouted: "Who are you? It's time for us to know each other by our first names!"
The man opposite took back his folding fan and smacked his palms at a much slower pace, "The little girl has good kung fu. I wonder whose disciple she is?"
Seeing that the two of them were still bickering, Chu Yue had long been impatient. At this moment, no one was stopping her, so she heard her shout: "Sister Shao, why are you talking nonsense to him? We'll beat him before talking." He stepped forward and kicked out, straight into the opponent's face as if the wind was blowing.
The man also smiled at this time, "The little girl has such a hot temper, I like it." As he said that, he stepped aside and pointed the folding fan in his hand at Chu Yue's shoulders and chest. Chu Yue's face turned red with anger, and she reached out and wanted to Go grab that fan head.
This made Miss Shao next to her exclaim: "Chu Yue can't do it."
At the same time, someone on the side shouted: "Miss Yue'er, be careful." A long sheathed sword stretched out from the thorn, and intercepted the folding fan halfway. When the two crossed, a "dang" sound was heard. .
