Tang Qi Tan

Chapter 114
The dark spiral staircase inside the secret door, illuminated by the faintly flickering lights, is like an invisible beast's mouth lurking in the darkness; it will swallow everything including the faint lights.After counting 170 steps, Jiang Tian finally saw the secret door on the top floor.

Through the small hole drilled in this secret door, Jiang Tian suddenly saw more than a dozen figures guarding a stairwell, wearing short armor and holding swords and double forks, waiting in full force; however, since they Having been exposed to Jiang Tian's vision, that also means another thing.

With the sudden opening of a secret door without warning, two silver lights leaped out like swimming fish and swallows. After hovering through the room for several times, these armed men suddenly dropped their weapons one after another, fell down in a slump, or He fell into a pool of blood and screamed loudly.

But it was because of the cramped environment in the room that it was impossible to control the trajectory and force more delicately and carefully, so the guiding flying blade only killed a small half of the people on the spot, and seriously injured the rest of the people.At this time, almost everyone below and above was alarmed.

I saw them stepping on the floor and swarming in.Amidst the yelling and shouting while looking around in a daze, the flying blades guided by the thoughts cut the neck, pierced the chest, and cut off the limbs one after another.At the same time, screaming and waving weapons, counterattacking and blocking enemies that do not exist in the air.

Until no one could stand in Jiang Tian's field of vision; only two survivors who survived because they were leaning back, also stumbled and screamed and fell downstairs in shock or inexplicable panic.Next is Jiang Tian, ​​who came out of the secret door, and started the follow-up time of making up the knife.

However, when he swung his sword and pierced through the third back that was still alive, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.As soon as the mind moves, the stabbing sword "Zi Dian" changes from the right hand to the left hand; suddenly turning around with a few jingling sounds, it blocks the silent round of sword strikes.

It was the door from the upper floor that opened at some unknown time, and a dark and strong man flew down like a falcon.A dusty gray short jacket could not hide his cold and tough demeanor at all; however, his actions and demeanor were as silent as a vicious poisonous snake.

With a slight movement of his shoulders, the long sword in his hand danced and jumped up as if it had come to life; it turned into a mass of flying sword light and water color like flowing clouds and flowing water.It was almost after chasing and crossing with Jiang Tian again, and after several rounds of intense sword fighting, he suddenly showed a trace of color at the corner of his mouth.

Because at the next moment, beautiful blood sprayed out one after another from Jiang Tian's arms, shoulders, chest, etc., where the skirt and sleeves were cut.Only then did Jiang Tian feel the swollen and severe pain of the subcutaneous nerve and muscle being cut off; and the feeling of loss of blood loss.

However, the next moment he suddenly changed his face, revealing a ghost-like expression and hastily withdrew his sword.Jiang Tian, ​​who should have collapsed due to the severe injury on the opposite side, stood up straight again.And the blood that splashed out was slowly shrunk back into the wound by some invisible force.

At this moment, Jiang Tian felt the changes brought about by the repair command, as well as the renewed sense of strength and coordination in his body; he sneered and said to himself: I will breathe back blood from the fourth natural disaster, do you know that you are afraid?Immediately, he pointed his sword at the other side, and spit out two words unhurriedly:
"Come again!"

However, at this time, the spirit and fighting spirit of the grey-clothed swordsman had lost most of his spirit and he wanted to retreat; he just regarded him as some kind of sharpening stone, but how could he let him go.In the "battlefield rabies" mode awakened by some kind of injury, he even began to clinch each other desperately with injuries for injuries.

And although this person's swordsmanship is extremely superb, and his moves are sharp and fast, they can't leave Jiang Tian's vital point; but before he is about to stab him, he will be forcibly deflected by a kind of resistance born out of thin air and hurt other places, and he will be quickly Repair; even the blood from the wound is too late to flow out.

This is derived from the "guide" ability, another derivative usage under the circumstances, as long as it is within the rhythm captured by Jiang Tian's vision, it can be influenced and controlled to varying degrees, forming a similar instinct Conditional launch general passive protection.

During the endless fight, he was injured in several places again, and after the blood gradually soaked through his clothes, the gray-clothed swordsman also let out a breath of determination, and suddenly released his sword with all his strength, and suddenly pierced Jiang Tian's shoulder with a smear of blood flowers; while the other hand shook out a soft sword and stabbed again.

In an instant, it pierced through like a snake letter, and Jiang Tian's right hand holding the sword came out through his arm again.However, Jiang Tian grinned sneeringly indifferently, twisted his arm back with all his strength, and forcibly stuck the opponent's sword blade with his arm bones and muscles.

"Take the white blade with your bare hands / Get rid of your weapon," Jiang Tian suddenly murmured in his heart; the blade of the soft sword that pierced the blood gushing out of his arm suddenly disappeared out of thin air.This is another kind of quick-witted application of the "dimension bubble" when he is in a hurry.

And the other party also suddenly emptied his hands, and he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, revealing obvious flaws and empty doors; then a speck of crystal flew past, marking a thin line of blood on his throat; however, the gray-clothed swordsman was not affected much , Clutching his throat without hesitation, he flew back.

But how could Jiang Tian let him go so easily?Following the gray-clothed swordsman's distance of more than ten steps; the guiding double blades flew forward again, approached and crossed, flew past, and nailed to the wall behind him.In an instant, a few palms and a big head, with an expression of disbelief, spurted blood.

Looking at the dead head, which rolled down again following the stairs above, and left behind.Jiang Tian kicked it with his foot, and then let out a sigh of relief, confirming that the other party was really dead.To be honest, it was also the first time he had seen this kind of swordsmanship, which was faster than the instinctive reaction after the human body was injured.

But in retrospect, he also discovered the shortcomings of this sword skill; although the burst output is very strong in an instant, it is actually difficult to last due to the user's physical endurance and strength.The price of quick sword killing is that the wound caused by each sword will not be too deep.

Therefore, it is also used to deal with those unarmored targets, or the key parts such as the throat of the special area, in order to fully exert its power and effect.On the battlefield, facing the siege and extrusion of thick and strong weapons such as armor, spears, shields, etc., it is difficult to exert lethal power.

Perhaps, this is an era in which the rangers and swordsmen in historical legends are gradually declining.But this short and intense fight and death fight also made Jiang Tian aware of his shortcomings and limitations; he was easily restricted and constrained by a narrow space.

Then, Jiang Tian looked at the stairs above again; because after a short and intense fight.The mission indicator did not disappear, but continued to point here.But I don't know, what kind of existence is waiting for me?
at the same time.Liu Niang, who went out to make contact secretly but was ambushed and hunted down at the meeting place at the agreed mark, also temporarily got rid of the pursuers again; but saw the informant Aguan who was caught, tortured and tortured to look like a human being, on the move He staggered along the street with several wrestlers.

However, unexpectedly, what greeted Jiang Tian was an empty top floor; a top floor where the entire floor has been transformed into a luxurious living room with complete functions.But apart from the corpse lying on the ground, the blood had already started to solidify, there was nothing else.

Even so, Jiang Tian still found some clues from the particularly warm seat in it.Afterwards, he raised a hand crossbow, aimed it at a place behind the screen fan, and said to the gently swaying curtain in the wind:

"Do you come out by yourself, or let you be shot and dragged out."

"Wait, wait..."

A young man with deep eyes and high nose, wearing a Hu suit, walked out slowly with his hands outstretched; he said with a forced and indifferent expression:
"Brother, you are really good at it. Even the famous Hui Yasha in the ghost market can't stop you. With such a skill, why should you be greedy for a little money?"

"What do you mean? And what do you know?"

Jiang Tian's heart moved when he heard the words, but he said in a disapproving tone:

"Of course I save it. Brother Tairao is short of money, and there may be other reasons, but it does not hinder my friendship. If the landlord can give you, I will naturally give you double. What the landlord can't give , I can give it to you too."

The young man in Hu suit squeezed out a cordial smile and said;
Only then did Jiang Tian realize that the other party had obviously misunderstood something.Although he had repaired his injuries just now, the torn clothes could not be recovered; then he randomly found a fairly complete outfit downstairs to put on; but he was regarded as the subordinate of the dead ghost landlord.

"Then... what are you?"

Jiang Tian hesitated on purpose before saying coldly:

"I... naturally, nothing,"

The young man in Hu Fu froze for a moment, then looked at the hand crossbow he was pointing at, and even though he was annoyed, he suppressed his anger and said proudly;
"I am the representative of the owner of the ghost city... and I have the right to deal with it at the moment. Everyday, even a few landlords have to follow orders."

"Just take a look."

Then, as if to strengthen his persuasiveness, he opened a cabinet hidden behind a curtain; immediately revealing the jeweled inside.He opened the next one, and it was a golden reflection; then he spread his hands and said:
"Since you can come here, then these are all yours."

"However, I don't recommend taking these: because you can't take much"

Then, he opened the top small grid with ease; took out a large handful of paper and a few scrolls and said:

"This is the real good thing. There is no need to pledge money, and the flying money that can be withdrawn upon seeing the ticket is at least one hundred coins; there are also unregistered large government debt redemption notes, which will naturally be easy to sell in the future."

Seeing Jiang Tian no longer speaking, he seemed to be attracted by these things, and the young man in Hufu casually asked:
"Where are those people downstairs? Are they all gone?"

"They blocked me."

Jiang Tian said in a cold voice with no expression on his face:

"Since this is the case... the skills are not as good as people, and if you die, you will die."

The young man in Hufu was startled again when he heard the words, and suddenly felt a little scared and heartbroken: there are dozens of good fighters, many of whom are veterans from the frontier army; And retraining, it will take a lot of effort and cost.

"Then next, you have to escort me and get out of here."

However, he pulled himself together again, tried to squeeze out a smile and said: This accidental loss is too great, just the companion who died downstairs with the alias "Grey Yasha" is not an ordinary person; a tyrannical martial arts and sword The skill of striking, but it was among the best in the early years of the Beijing Martial Arts Association.

It's just that later, because of drunken disorder, he failed to rape the daughter of an official, and killed the whole family in anger, so he was locked up and sent to prison.Therefore, the owner of the ghost market used Li Daitao's method to find a scapegoat with a similar appearance, and replaced him from the pending autumn prison to serve as his pawn.

Now that he is dying here, how can he give up easily, and how can he explain to the owner of the ghost city behind him?Therefore, even if he is temporarily subdued by the lure of profit in front of him, as long as he has a chance to return alive, in the hands of the remaining people, everything will be processed slowly.

However, as he smoothly opened another secret door hidden in the top floor, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in the back of his head, and immediately passed out.
