Chapter 6 Buried Name Abroad
Tie Jian's figure flashed, and after dodging a sword light, he clenched his dagger and waved vigorously to separate the other sword light. He stepped on his feet, and his speed suddenly accelerated, and he came to the black clothes. in front of the monk.

The dagger in his hand suddenly stabbed out and went straight to the monk's heart.

Only heard a "bang" sound.

The layer of golden light on the cultivator's body suddenly shook, blocking Tie Jian's dagger from his body again.

"Die!" The black-clothed monk shouted violently, and the long sword in his hand suddenly fell.

Tie Jian didn't have time to retreat, so he had to hold the dagger in both hands and swung it horizontally over his head, blocking the blue long sword.

"Boom" sound.

A strong force came, and Tie Jian's already scarred body couldn't support it, and he was forced to half squat down.

He heard a soft moan from the monk's mouth, the blue light above the long sword in his hand was bright, and a cold current poured out from it, which quickly turned into a layer of white frost, freezing Tie Jian inside.

When the little abacus not far away saw this scene, he was very anxious.With one assassin missing, she is now under the joint attack of the remaining two assassins. Although she can barely deal with the opponent with her agile skills, she cannot escape at all.

When the two assassins found that Tie Jian had been restrained, they were sure in their hearts. After looking at each other, they attacked and defended in a circle around the small abacus, apparently holding the black-clothed cultivator to solve Tie Jian, and then come again. Solve this woman's plan together.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred.

Tie Jian, who was in the frost, suddenly felt that deep in his dantian, the pale golden flame suddenly expanded and turned into a warm current that rushed up the meridians in his body and poured into his hands. .

It was accompanied by an indescribable feeling of pain, as if the meridians where the heat flow passed were all broken open.

He let out a long drink that ripped through the night, and all the frost on his body melted away in an instant, and a golden flame lit up on the end of his left finger, which was attached to the dagger, burning it red.

"You are also a monk!" The black monk was shocked.

Tie Jian kicked his feet, stood up suddenly, swung the fiery red dagger, picked up the man's long sword, and stabbed him in the chest.

Only heard a "poof" sound.

The layer of golden light on the black-clothed cultivator was like a thin window paper. Once it was pierced, the scarlet dagger pierced into his heart.

There was a cloud of blue smoke rising from his chest, but there was not even a drop of blood dripping, only a scorched smell emanated.

The black-clothed cultivator's eyes filled with disbelief, and his figure slanted and fell to the side.

From Tie Jian being frozen, to getting out of trouble and killing the black-clothed cultivator, the seemingly complicated confrontation was actually just a few breaths of work before and after.

Tie Jian pulled out the dagger, only to feel the pain all over his body was unbearable, and his head was a little dizzy.But he still gritted his teeth and flicked one hand, and the fiery red dagger in his hand turned into a red light and flew towards the direction of the battle where the small abacus was.

"Pfft"!
The two assassins who were concentrating on fighting with the little abacus didn't have time to react. One of them was pierced by a red light and fell to the ground. Only then did the other realize the reversal that occurred here. Immediately lost his fighting spirit, he wanted to turn around and run away.

"Where to run!"

How could Little Abacus let him go? With his strong skills, it was more than enough to deal with an assassin who had lost his fighting spirit.

And after Tie Jian threw the dagger, the last trace of strength in his body seemed to be drained.I saw his face was as pale as paper, and his consciousness was blurred for a while. With the unexplained heat of the meridians in his whole body, he immediately fainted out of consciousness.

……

In the darkness, Tie Jian opened his eyes in a trance, only to feel that the surroundings were hazy, and he couldn't see anything.

After a pause, his vision gradually recovered, and when he saw a curtain hanging above his head, he touched the bed again, only to realize that he seemed to be lying on a rather large wooden bed.

All the wounds on his body were bandaged, his clothes had been changed, and the small sword-shaped sachet was neatly placed beside the wooden pillow.

Tie Jian turned his neck, wanting to take a look at the surrounding environment, but just a little bit of movement, he felt severe pain all over his body, and he couldn't help groaning in pain.

He hurriedly stopped his movements, and after calming himself down, he used his spiritual sense to explore the whole body, only to find that, not to mention some external injuries, even the vital meridians were broken in many places.

Now his body is very weak, and the situation seems to be worse than before.

After realizing that there was movement on his side, a maid who was dozing off at the round table in the room immediately came over, and seeing that Tie Jian had woken up, she quickly said, "Young Master Chu, you are awake... I'll report it now. Miss go."

Before Tie Jian could say anything, the servant girl who looked young turned around and ran out of the house.

Now he can hardly move at all, he can only sigh, touch the sachet with his fingers, and hold it tightly in his hand.Then, he stared at the pattern on the drapery above his head and fell into contemplation.

At this moment, there were bursts of small footsteps outside the door, and there were also some low voices of conversation in the middle. It seemed that two maids were passing by outside his house, and the words seemed to vaguely mention the attack that night. kill.

Tie Jian's mind moved slightly, condensed his consciousness, and listened carefully.

"...The night was miserable. Many people were quietly wiped their necks." One of them whispered.

"That's not it, the old man of Xiuzhu's family heard that he was stabbed seven or eight times in the chest, and he has no human form." Another person also said.

"Fortunately, I have already arrived outside the capital, and the second master brought someone to respond in time, otherwise I would not dare to think about the consequences."

"It's so hard, Miss. I've lost most of the goods this time, and the mansion is still... sigh..." The woman who spoke at the back said here, and seemed a little unbearable to continue, she stopped and sighed.

"It's true that the house leaked and it rained all night. Our patriarch was clearly in the same year, so why did he suddenly die? The lady was ordered to come back to take over as the head of the family this time, but it happened to be such an important loss of goods. It's been more than half, and I don't know how she can hold on..."

The two seemed to have walked past his door, gradually moving away, and their voices became more and more blurred, only one sigh after another could be heard.

Tie Jian just remembered that the little handmaiden who was guarding in his room just now was wearing mourning clothes.

"It seems that I am not alone in the accident..."

He clenched his fists slightly and murmured something softly, but in his mind he couldn't help but come across the appearance of Yan Zi when he first saw Yan Zi that day, she looked like such a weak woman, can she really bear it?
After half an hour.

There was another rush of footsteps outside the door, but it was Yan Zi who rushed over with a little abacus.

At this time, Yan Zi had changed into the snow-white dress she had first met, and put on a close-fitting black gauze dress. Her black hair was simply pulled behind her head and pinned with an ebony hairpin.In addition, there is no decoration on the head, and the whole person looks lean and clean, standing alone.

But looking at his expression, Tie Jian didn't see much obvious sadness on his face, just as calm and natural as when he first met him.

The little abacus behind him was also dressed in black at this time, looking a bit ladylike.

"I've seen Miss Yan." Tie Jian was in severe pain and couldn't get up. He could only barely lift his arms and clasped his fists.

"Young Master Chu doesn't need to be too polite, it's Yan Zi who salutes you. Although Xiao Abacus is my maid, she has grown up with me since childhood. I always treat her as my own sister. If it wasn't for you to help me that day. , I'm afraid she has already encountered an accident." Yan Zi waved her hand and said.

The little abacus on the side had slightly red eyes, a little embarrassed to look at Tie Jian.

"Brother Chu, I blamed me for being blind before, so I was so rude to you, but I didn't expect you to save me with all your life, I..." She lowered her head slightly, grabbed the corner of her clothes and said.

"Cough cough... In the chaos that day, I fought with those men in black for the sake of self-protection." Seeing Xiao Abacus's eyes turning red, as if he was about to cry, Tie Jian suddenly had a big head and said quickly. .

Little Abacus barely held back her tears, but she didn't believe what Tie Jian said in her heart. If it was just for self-protection, she could leave on her own. Those people in black certainly couldn't stop her, so why did she hurt herself like this?
"Young Master Chu, five days have passed since you were attacked that day, and you have already entered the Yuejing Yan Mansion. I wonder if there is a change in your opinion that day?" Yan Zi asked suddenly.

"I've actually been in a coma for five days... Now I'm not seriously injured, I'm afraid I'll be harassing you for a while longer in your residence." Tie Jian gave a wry smile.

"Young Master Chu was so seriously injured to save the little abacus, and we should take care of it. Just to be honest with you, the doctor said that your meridians have broken in many places. I'm afraid it will be difficult to restore the original." Yan Zi hesitated for a while. said like.

From the perspective of mortal physique, it is naturally difficult to recover from this level of injury. I am afraid that in the future, I will not be able to do some heavy lifting tasks. But Tie Jian is not an ordinary person, and it is not difficult to recover from these injuries. , but now that the mana in his body cannot stay in his dantian, the speed of recovery will be greatly slowed down.

"I heard that Young Master Chu mentioned the enemy's pursuit and killing, but now that you are in such a situation that you cannot protect yourself, why don't you just stay and take care of yourself?" Seeing that Tie Jian didn't speak for a while, Yan Zi continued.

Seeing that Tie Jian didn't speak for a while, Yan Zi continued.

"Chu is very grateful for Miss Yan's kindness. Just to tell the truth, the people who are chasing me have a lot of background, and I really don't want to cause trouble to the Yan family." Tie Jian thought for a while and said.

"What's the trouble? This is Yuejing. No matter how big those people are, there are many constraints to start in other capitals. Besides here, Chu Gongzi can't find a better place for a while, right?" Yan Zi With a smile, she said.
