There is a street called Yulong Street in Hekou Town, which runs from the east gate of the town through the city center to the west of the town. This street is named after the Yulong River and is the central road of Hekou Town. This street is towards the east gate of Hekou Town. The only road through the Yulong Mountains, and to the west is the Yulong River Pier. Yulong Street is full of various shops, but the most popular ones are drug stores. Qijia Drug Store is located to the east of Yulong Street.

Qijia Pharmacy is the same as many shops in the small town of Hekou. The store is composed of a two-story building. The front is the store, and the back is the residential courtyard. The outer walls of the courtyard are painted white with white plaster. The doors and windows of the medicine shop are carved with birds and animals, which makes the medicine shop look antique. Judging from the decoration of the medicine shop, the business of Qi's medicine shop should be quite good.

At this time, many people were already crowded around Yulong Street, a little far away from Qijia Medicine Shop, and people were talking in low voices. The detectives also surrounded the front and back of Qijia Pharmacy, waiting for the county magistrate to come.

The county magistrate and his entourage hurried to Qijia Pharmacy. Captain Wang, who was already standing at the door of Qijia Pharmacy, hurried up to greet him and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I just checked inside and found no one alive inside." There were more than ten people killed, including the shop owner of Qi’s Medicine Shop and his wife.” Magistrate Wang said "Yeah" and walked into the backyard of the drug store.

The backyard of Qijia Medicine Shop consists of the main room, the east and west wing rooms and the front door shop. The back wall of the wing rooms is connected to the courtyard wall, and a brick wall is built at the corner. The yard is surrounded by walls from the outside, all with tall walls, leaving only a back door. Outside the back door is a small alley intersecting with Yulong Street.

As soon as the magistrate stepped into the backyard, a strong smell of blood hit him. He saw two people wearing coarse clothes lying at the door of the east wing of the courtyard. They looked like they were herb collectors at Qijia Pharmacy. Judging from the wounds, he died by slitting his throat. Then the county magistrate and his entourage walked towards the main room. When they entered, they saw shopkeeper Qi lying at the door of the main house with a Pu knife in his hand. Judging from the damage to the furniture at the scene, shopkeeper Qi was beaten by someone after a fight. The sword pierced the heart and died, while Mrs. Qi also fell in a pool of blood in the inner room.

A maid and an old woman were lying in the west wing. Their faces were slightly black, and they seemed to have died of poisoning. When the county magistrate saw it, he asked: "How were they killed?" Wang Captou quickly said: "We have just checked, and he died because of a hidden weapon."

The county magistrate then asked: "I heard that everyone usually calls shopkeeper Qi a good person. How could he be in trouble like this? It's so sad. The scene looks like a vendetta. Wang Captou, did you find anything when you came here first? ?”

Wang Captou hurried back: "I went to the riverside teahouse to drink tea this morning. I heard from other people that shopkeeper Qi led people to collect a batch of precious medicinal materials in the Yulong Mountains yesterday. It may be a gangster or a villain in the world who got the news. , he went to Qi’s pharmacy to kill people and steal medicinal materials.”

"Oh, it turns out that during the recent inspection by the state capital, such a major murder case occurred at this time. It is really unlucky." The county magistrate said to himself.

The county magistrate can only ask Mr. Wang to arrange for people to protect the scene, let the clerk record the situation here, and then put the body into the coffin, waiting for the shopkeeper's family to bury the body. For feuds between Jianghu and Jianghu, county magistrates usually record the case and treat it as a suspicious case and let it go...

In the small Taoist temple in Jiming Mountain, Jining's face was extremely pale. The bun on his head may have fallen apart due to the rush, and his Taoist robe also had a few holes.

He looked at a dark token made of unknown materials in his hand with a tired face. There was only an ancient Chinese character "Xuan" on the front of the token, but the writing was scrawled. If you didn't look carefully, you would have thought it was a few messy lines. On the back of the token, It's the image of a sword.

He looked at the token, shook his head secretly, and thought about it. He suddenly fell into a dream when he recalled what happened yesterday.

Yesterday, he went into the mountains to collect medicines and came back. Because the mountain road was difficult, it was already late at night when he returned. The afterglow of the moonlight fell in the shade of the trees, and there were many shadows, which also made Jining feel uneasy.

In order to return to the temple as soon as possible, Minti used his inner strength to use Taoist Qinggong to move quickly.

Suddenly, there was a burst of clashing sounds of swords and shouts of curses coming from the woods ahead. Taking a closer look, he saw a masked man in green commanding a group of masked men in black to attack a gorgeous woman in white. However, he did not dare to get too close. It turned out that this woman in white actually used a legendary weapon in the world. Swordsmanship.

This surprised Jining and almost screamed. He hurriedly hid behind a big tree to observe, and saw the woman in white wielding a flying sword and constantly attacking the group of masked men surrounding her.

Jining could tell that although the woman in white knew the supreme magical skill of sword control, it seemed that the use of sword control was very draining of internal energy. Although she seemed to have the upper hand now, it could be seen from the expression of the woman in white that she might not be able to hold on for much longer.

The woman in white was pale, and her clothes were soaked with sweat. Her eyes showed panic, but she still desperately controlled the flying sword to attack the masked man rushing towards her. Many of the masked men besieging the opposite side had been injured, but the masked man in green took advantage of the large number of people and continued to direct other masked men to attack the woman in white. The mysterious attack method of sword control also made this group of masked men The man in front of him was helpless against the woman in white.

When Jining saw the woman in white being attacked by the crowd, he wanted to help, but seeing that the scene was beyond his ability, he saw that the situation was not good and prepared to sneak away, but the hurried footsteps were still noticed by the woman in white and the masked man in green. The woman's flying sword condensed, and the flying sword turned around to protect herself.

Suddenly, a ray of cold light flew toward the big tree where Jining was dodging, and an explosion sound came from Jining's side. When Jining saw the cold light flying towards him, he hurriedly jumped back and was several feet away from the big tree.

Just when Jining was about to move away, the hot breath of the hidden weapon explosion mixed with iron pieces and stones came towards him. Seeing that he could not avoid it, Jining hurriedly rolled on the spot and managed to avoid most of the attacks. Jining saw The area within the concealed weapon explosion was scorched black, and a large crater appeared in the center of the explosion.

I was shocked and angry, but luckily I dodged most of the iron pieces and rocks flying on the ground in time, otherwise I would have been seriously injured even if I didn't die. However, there were still many scratches on his body from stones and iron fragments splashed by the explosion.

But luckily, these were just superficial injuries. Jining didn't care about his injured body and the medicinal materials that fell from the medicine basket, thinking that it would be better to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.

The masked man in green said "Hey", a little surprised that his attack on a little Taoist priest was unsuccessful. Then he let out a furious roar. It turned out that when he attacked Jining, several of his men who had been seriously injured were unexpectedly attacked by the woman, and their heads were chopped off by the flying sword controlled by the woman.

The masked man in green stared at the woman fiercely and said: "You robbed me of my treasure and killed my disciples. If you hand over the treasure now, I can still spare your life. Otherwise, I will have your body cramped and stripped of your soul, and you will never be reincarnated as a memorial." Our disciples’ spirits are in heaven.”

The woman in white sneered and said, "Your treasure? You just robbed it from someone else's pharmacy, but you actually killed the whole family and shamelessly said it was your treasure."

Jining naturally did not want to get involved in this matter, so he turned around and prepared to escape. When the masked man in green saw Jining who was about to escape, he quickly waved his sword and rushed towards Jining, wanting to kill Jining first.

This masked man in Tsing Yi has very strong martial arts and a sword like a swimming dragon. Before Jining could react, the sword light had reached his chest in an instant. Jining hurriedly used the medicine hoe to collect medicine to block it, but the sword power of the masked man in Tsing Yi was extremely powerful. It was so shocking that Jining's mouth went numb.

However, the medicine hoe blocked it, and Jining Kankan also dodged the sword. However, the handle of the medicine hoe was also broken by the blow of the heavy sword.

The masked man in Tsing Yi struck with his second sword before Jining could take a breath. Jining discovered that the masked man in Tsing Yi was extremely skilled in martial arts, but he had no weapons suitable for him.

Jining wanted to use the medicine hoe to block it, but found that the medicine hoe had been destroyed by the sword in front of him, so he could only close his eyes and wait for death.

Jining felt desolate in his heart. He had always been indifferent to the world but suffered such an unreasonable disaster. He unexpectedly encountered such a vendetta. It seemed that his life was decided here today.

There was a clang, and it turned out that when the woman in white saw the masked man in green and wanted to kill Jining, he thought there was a flaw behind his back, so he wanted to kill the masked man in blue with a flying sword.

When the masked man in green saw the woman in white attacking with a flying sword, he didn't care about killing Jining and quickly returned his sword to block the sword.

Unexpectedly, the sword of the woman in white was so powerful. Although the masked man in green blocked the sword, he was still injured and spit out a large mouthful of blood. When the masked man in Tsing Yi returned to defense with his sword, Jining quickly jumped back on the ladder, and the distance between the masked man in Tsing Yi and the woman in white was tens of feet away.

The masked man stared at the woman in white with an evil light in his eyes and said gloomily: "You are already at the end of your strength. Let's see how many more swords you can use. As long as you hand over the treasure now, I will spare your life."

The woman in white sneered and said: "There is a legend in the world that the leader of the Blue Blood Sword Sect, Lie Xiangtian, hates evil and is a righteous man in the world. Today, I found out that the leader of the Lie Sect is actually a hypocritical, despicable person who killed innocent people for the sake of this treasure. If you have the ability, come and get it yourself!”

The masked man in green became so angry that he swung his sword and stabbed the woman. The woman hurriedly defended herself with her sword.

Originally, Jining thought that his life was about to be lost here, but fortunately, he just walked around the gate of hell and came back. In order to save his life, Jining hurriedly used his Qinggong and Qinggong to get out of this dangerous place.

Just as he flew away, the woman in white suddenly said loudly: "It's fate that we meet each other, little Taoist priest, this treasure is given to you."

After saying that, he threw an object wrapped in gray cloth at him. Although Jining knew that it was the woman's plan to move the trouble eastward, he knew that this object must be a valuable thing, otherwise the famous Blue Blood Sword Sect would not do such a thing. Things to do.

He didn't care much anymore. After catching the items, he took advantage of the night and ran away, hurriedly escaping towards the Taoist temple. When Jining left, he heard the roar of the masked man in green and the order for his men to chase. Jining only cares about escaping for his life and does not care about anything else. Relying on his familiarity with this mountain forest, Jining took advantage of the darkness to get rid of the chasing masked man, and wandered around in the mountains for several times before returning to the Taoist temple.
