For Xu Jingsheng, a famous disciple from the East Lake Academy in Yuzhang City, to kill someone with his sword without saying hello behind them was something he would never bother to do in the past.
But who said that the man in front of me was a desperate man?
Xu Jingsheng did not expect that a seemingly ordinary mission would actually lead to him discovering the traces of Paper Man.
Ten days ago, Xu Jingsheng was in a teahouse and heard a table of guests sitting at the next table talking about an interesting thing they heard in Huancheng.
This incident happened to a wealthy man named Jin Ziang in Huancheng.
It is said that Jin Ziang was entertaining guests in the best restaurant in Huancheng that day. Suddenly, two men broke into their box and, in front of the guests inside, turned a very beautiful young lady into a piece of paper. people.
The guest at the next table described this matter in a very detailed way, such as how the juggler who broke in touched the beautiful young lady's breast and turned her into a human being. The details described in the description It's so rich, it's as if this person is present at the scene.
What is said is unintentional, but the listener is intentional.
To the guests at the next table, this was just an interesting thing to talk about after dinner, but to the ears of a disciple of the Seven Immortals Alliance like Xu Jingsheng, they could hear a lot of things that were wrong.
So he went over to confirm and found that this matter was really not made up by these guests, but that before these people left Huancheng, it was already known to everyone in the small town at the junction of Chujiang and Jiangzhou. thing.
Moreover, another strange thing seemed to have happened in that small town. Someone broke into a garrison camp in Huancheng and injured many soldiers.
However, not many people know the details of this matter.
Xu Jingsheng's first reaction after hearing this was that there were practitioners active in the small town on the border of Jiangzhou.
At this time, he had not yet connected the paper man with these things, because although the paper man technique was partial, there were still some people who knew it.
As a very responsible disciple of the Seven Immortals Alliance, Xu Jinsheng decided to visit that small town.
Of course, since he had to go on a mission far away, he had to go back to the academy to report to Chen Shanming, the headmaster of East Lake Academy and his master.
Unexpectedly, when I reported it to the mountain leader Chen Shanming, my junior sister Xia Xiaohong who was passing by heard me and insisted on following me.
At first, Xu Jingsheng was unwilling to bring his junior sister Xia Xiaohong with him. With one more person, and she was also a junior sister, it would not be so convenient for him.
But the master Chen Shanming said with a smile that he should take the junior sister who had never been out of Yuzhang City to go out and broaden her horizons.
So the two disciples from the East Lake Academy of the Seven Immortals Alliance in Yuzhang City set out for Huancheng together.
Xu Jingsheng ranks third among the second-generation disciples of East Lake Academy, but is the first in strength among the second-generation disciples of East Lake Academy. When he first met the cultivation of the Eight Layer Tower, he was rare to be wise and steady, but also flexible. He was Yu One of the most outstanding young talents among the second generation disciples of the Seven Immortals Alliance in Zhangcheng.
Xia Xiaohong, the junior sister among the second-generation disciples of East Lake Academy, is in the Qi-entraining stage and has just completed the Little Zhoutian Movement. Naturally, there is a huge difference in strength between her and third senior brother Xu Jinsheng. However, if you consider that Xia Xiaohong has only been practicing in the academy for a little more than a year, He has succeeded in entraining qi and has reached the perfection of Little Zhoutian. This kind of cultivation speed makes him a genius.
Maybe after many years, Xu Jingsheng will feel ashamed in front of his junior sister.
The two set out from Yuzhang City in the early morning and arrived at Huancheng, 700 miles away, at noon. This was mainly to take care of Xia Xiaohong's speed. Otherwise, if Xu Jinsheng was alone, he could reach Huancheng in two hours in the morning.
After the two came to Huancheng, they easily found out where Jin Ziang's mansion was.
Jin Ziang is indeed a very famous person in Huancheng.
Just when I came to Jin Ziang's mansion, I found that a tragedy comparable to the massacre had already occurred here. In such a large mansion, except for the owner Jin Ziang, all the servants were killed using Taoism.
.
After rescuing Jin Ziang and learning from Jin Ziang the physical characteristics of the old man who broke into his bedroom, Xu Jinsheng immediately knew that he might have caught a big fish this time.
According to Jin Ziang's dictation and the Taoist techniques he used, Xu Jingsheng was sure that the practitioner who just escaped must be the life-saver Bai Zhanweng.
Being a life-saver is a profession that only practitioners can do.
To put it simply, as long as you can afford the price, he can sell his life to you. Of course, it is not the person selling his own life, but the life of others.
This is not the same thing as a killer in the mortal world.
The killer just kills people.
But the "life" sold to you by a life-seller is not necessarily the life of a dead person.
The life-seller can completely satisfy some of the special requirements of the life-buyer, such as turning someone you particularly hate into a puppet. You can call him or her around every day and do whatever you want him to do. This is how you treat your enemies. , wouldn’t it be much better than killing directly?
Or keep all the consciousness of the other party and suffer soul torture all the time.
These things that ordinary killers can't do, life-savers can do for you.
And such a character is naturally a natural enemy of the Seven Immortals Alliance, which takes upholding heavenly rules as its own duty and prohibits practitioners from interfering in mortal affairs.
As long as the whereabouts of any desperate person are discovered, the Seven Immortals Alliance will definitely kill them at any cost.
As for the white paper man, he is a very famous life-saver in Jiangzhou Generation, and he is also a figure who ranks very high on the list of evil heretics that must be eradicated by Jiangzhou Seven Immortals Alliance.
The viciousness, cruelty and unscrupulousness of this man's actions are outrageous. He kills people at every turn and creates a lot of bloodshed.
Although Paper Old Man's cultivation level is not too high, according to the information obtained by the Seven Immortals Alliance, he should be around the third or fourth floor of the First Awareness Realm.
But this man is very cunning and cautious, and the paper-man and paper-horse skills he knows have some very mysterious applications. Therefore, the Seven Immortals Alliance in Jiangzhou has been pursuing him for many years, but they have never been able to pursue him.
So after Xu Jingsheng discovered the whereabouts of Paper Man from Jin Ziang's mouth, his attention was immediately drawn to it.
As for Jin Ziang, he also mentioned that he saw a dragon by the river a few days ago. Regarding this matter, Xu Jingsheng thought that Jin Ziang and his friends most likely saw it wrong. What they saw was just a big fish or a strange snake. s things.
Because all practitioners know that there are no dragons in the world now.
The main reason why Xu Jingsheng made such a judgment was because he would not use the soul-searching technique on Jin Ziang like Paper Old Man. Of course, he did not know this kind of spell either. In short, he could not see it like Paper Old Man. The scene in Jin Ziang's memory, otherwise he might make a different judgment.
In the next few days, Xu Jingsheng relied on the aura of the paper man attached to the little paper man obtained in the Jin Mansion, and began to track the paper man all the way, and finally caught up with the paper man at night.
He came quietly behind Paper Man, concealed his aura with secret techniques, and then thrust out a fatal sword.
There is no need to say too much nonsense about people who sell their lives, especially this white paper guy. Many bloodsheds in recent years have been proven to be his doings. Just the bloodshed in Huancheng a few days ago, this white paper guy has already Death is not a pity.
Xu Jingsheng was stronger than Bai Zhiweng, and he was calculating mentally but not intentionally. In addition, Baizhiweng was completely attracted by the strange scenery on the river at the moment, so Xu Jinsheng's sword stabbed Bai Zhiweng into Bai Zhiweng's throat. Weng didn't react at all.
But... when Xu Jingsheng thrust his sword into Paper Man's throat, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
Because the feeling coming from the tip of the sword didn't feel like it was piercing into a blood-headed body, and there was no blood flowing out of Paper Man's throat.
The next moment, the white paper man's body turned into a three-inch tall white paper man, hanging on the sword body, swaying in the wind.
At the same time, more than ten miles away by the river,
Somewhere in the forest, a white paper figure that was originally hanging on a branch suddenly shook, transformed into a paper figure, and walked down from the branch.
The white paper man first glanced bitterly at the distance ahead.
If he hadn't always been cautious and cautious, leaving a paper substitute here, with whom he had swapped bodies in the critical moment, he might have been killed by the little brat from the Alliance of Seven Immortals this time.
But then, Paper Old Man couldn't care less about his anger, and his face was replaced by a look of ecstasy.
Now, it is finally confirmed that the dragon is real. The next thing to do is to find helpers to hunt down the dragon that has not truly transformed into a dragon.
After all, he couldn't deal with that dragon by himself. Just from a quick glance, Bai Zhiweng roughly judged that the strength of the walking dragon should be equivalent to that of a practitioner in the Fetal Movement Realm.
After deciding on the plan in his mind, the white paper man took out a piece of white paper from his chest and folded it into a paper crane in two or three times. He muttered a Taoist formula in his mouth, stretched out his fingers and tapped a little on the paper crane. The paper crane's wings suddenly flapped.
Then he threw the paper crane into the air, jumped up, and stepped on the paper crane's back with one foot.
The white paper crane flapped its wings and flew gracefully towards the depths of the mountain forest.
…
Xu Jingsheng looked at the little paper man on the sword in silence, feeling that the brows on the paper man's face were full of ridicule towards him.
Xu Jingsheng sighed, thinking that the paper man really lived up to his reputation. Not only was he cautious and cunning in his actions, but he also had the art of paper humanism, which was much more mysterious than the ordinary paper man's art.
At the same time, he stretched out his hand to grab the white paper figure on the sword, but the white paper figure that had not been touched by his fingers was the first step to turn into a small flame, burning up, even a little bit of ashes was gone. None remained.
So Xu Jingsheng smiled bitterly again.
At this time, junior junior sister Xia Xiaohong finally caught up from behind, stepping on the branches in the forest and landed next to him.
Seeing this scene in front of her, Xia Xiaohong was about to comfort her third senior brother whom she admired deeply in her heart, but her attention was immediately attracted by the strange sight on the river. Then her pretty face suddenly turned pale and she exclaimed. One sentence.
"What it is?"
Xu Jingsheng turned his head and looked towards the river.
In fact, he naturally heard the long groan that echoed through the surrounding mountains just now.
But if Paper Man's attention was entirely attracted by the dragon on the river just now, Xu Jinsheng's mind was entirely focused on the sword he was about to thrust out.
So even though he was curious, he still eliminated any distracting thoughts and prevented any fluctuations in his spiritual power, so as not to arouse the vigilance of Paper Old Man.
At this time, following the younger junior sister's exclamation, he finally looked towards the river.
The next moment, Xu Jingsheng's expression changed drastically.
"not good!"
"The dragon walks through the water!"
He immediately understood what was happening on the river at this time.
Unexpectedly, the dragon mentioned by the wealthy businessman in Huancheng actually existed.
At this time, he had no time to explain anything to his junior sister, so he immediately said to Xia Xiaohong:
"Junior sister, you go outside the canyon immediately. I remember there is a village on the riverside. You tell the people in that village to flee to higher ground."
Immediately afterwards, he wrote three words in the air with his left hand, namely:
"Sharp", "quick", "royal".
Three words exuding a dull golden light penetrated into his body in an instant.
Xu Jingsheng held swords in both hands, united his body and sword, flew through the air, and stabbed the dragon on the river in the distance with his sword.
We must stop the dragon from rushing out of the canyon, otherwise all life outside the canyon will be destroyed!
