Martial Arts: Opening Awakening

Chapter 144

That night, the little golden snake that crawled into the tent had severely frightened Zhou Xiaomeng.

The next day, not only were the seven horses smeared with realgar, but even Zhou Xiaomeng carried a realgar bag with him.

For the past two days, Zhou Xiaomeng has been guessing what the snake driver would be, but unexpectedly, he is always by his side.

Zhou Xiaomeng raised his long sword, pointed at Jiangnan, and shouted, "Say, who are you? Why did you drive a snake to peep at my tent that night?"

"What is driving a snake to peep? Obviously this little guy ran around by himself and entered your tent by mistake. I just found it running around and called it back."

Jiang Nan was straightforward and directly threw the blame on the Golden Winged Flying Snake.

Anyway, this little thing can't understand such complicated words.

"Really?" Zhou Xiaomeng was dubious.

"Of course it is true." Jiang Nan nodded firmly: "If I wanted to assassinate you, I would have let Xiao Jin secretly bite you, why call him back?"

Jiang Nan said, pointing to Ding Qiushuang's body on the ground: "Xiao Jin wants to bite, even a master of Gang Qi can't stop him."

When Zhou Xiaomeng heard the words, he finally believed it a little.

However, the bottom of my heart is also secretly awe-inspiring.

The poison of this little snake is too overbearing.If he really bites himself, his situation may not be much better than Ding Qiushuang.

"Although you didn't intend to assassinate me, who knows if you have any other intentions." Zhou Xiaomeng whispered.

"What plans can I have?" Jiang Nan asked with a half-smile.

"You plotted against my beauty."

Of course, Zhou Xiaomeng was just slandering these words in his heart, and he didn't have the nerve to say them out.

Just a snort.

Then he said solemnly: "This woman is a disciple of Xuannv Palace, what should we do now?"

Zhou Xiaomeng's tone was faintly worried.

The strength of Xuannv Palace is much stronger than that of Huashan Sword Sect.

If someone really found out, and people from Xuannv Palace approached him, the Huashan Sword Sect might not be able to protect him.

In other words, the Huashan Sword Sect might not offend Xuannv Palace in order to protect themselves.

"What should I do? Let's do it while it's hot." Jiang Nan said casually.

"Ok?"

Zhou Xiaomeng's eyes were wide open, with a terrified expression.

"Ahem...I mean, fake some wounds while the body is still hot and the blood hasn't coagulated. If the body is cold, the fake wounds won't look like it." Jiang Nan explained seriously.

Zhou Xiaomeng nodded.

However, the eyes looking at Jiangnan are still a little strange.

"Is there any more powerful evil master nearby?"

"That's right, the kind that dared to kill the disciples of Xuannv Palace." Jiang Nan added.

"No."

Zhou Xiaomeng shook her head.

"Xuannv Palace is the strongest top force under the Holy Land. Except for the frenzied members of the four major cults, few people dare to attack the disciples of Xuannv Palace."

Zhou Xiaomeng said, and added meaningfully: "You know, women are more stingy and hold grudges. If you provoke Xuannv Palace, you will definitely be targeted with grudges."

Jiang Nan felt a chill in his heart when he heard this, and always felt that this woman was hinting at himself.

"Okay. Then I won't pretend. Just pretend that she died of poisoning. Anyway, this place is remote, so if you dig a hole and bury it, you may not be discovered."

After Jiang Nan finished speaking, he picked up Ding Qiushuang's long sword, chose a remote corner with soft soil, and immediately dug a big hole.

With Jiangnan's physical strength, he can dig a hole very quickly, which can be called a humanoid excavator.

With Zhou Xiaomeng by his side, Jiang Nan was too embarrassed to touch the female corpse.He just scratched the wound bitten by the Golden Winged Flying Snake with a sharp stone and threw it into the pit.

After dealing with the scene, it was already a stick of incense.

Because of the previous incident, Zhou Xiaomeng suddenly became alienated from Jiangnan.I don't know if it's fear in my heart, or I'm secretly sulking.

When Jiangnan dug the hole, he didn't help.

After Jiangnan finished cleaning up, Zhou Xiaomeng immediately led the white horse out of the woods.

Jiang Nan knew that Zhou Xiaomeng was still doubting his identity and the purpose of approaching her, so he didn't care, he took the dark horse and followed slowly.

"Fifth Lord, where is the man!"

A shout attracted the attention of the two of them.

On the official road, more than twenty thugs with swords and soldiers came oncoming.The person who shouted was the man whose hair had been shaved by Zhou Xiaomeng before.

"Two, I don't know how to address you?"

After his subordinates surrounded the two people in Jiangnan, the leader took a few steps forward and asked.

This man was about fifty years old, with a goatee, a brocade suit, and a melon cap, and he kept turning two iron gallbladders the size of eggs in his hands.

Against the backdrop of many thugs, it looks quite imposing.

Zhou Xiaomeng completely ignored this person, raised his whip and shouted, "Get out of the way!"

"The little girl has a big temper!"

The melon skin hat narrowed his eyes, "You stole my horse and bullied my subordinates. You just wanted to leave without giving an explanation? There is no such good thing in the world!"

The eyes of this melon skin hat are very vicious, and I can see through Zhou Xiaomeng's disguise as a man at a glance.

Zhou Xiaomeng laughed back angrily: "What stole your horse? It's obviously a trap set by you, okay?!"

"Trap? Hehe..." Guapi Mao smiled slyly: "Now, the fact is that my horse was led by you, and my man was beaten by you. If you say a trap, who will believe it?"

"That's right, who will believe it?"

"Do you believe it?"

"I do not believe……"

"Hahaha……"

A group of thugs behind Guapi Mao responded one after another.

Guapi Mao stared at Zhou Xiaomeng's chest that was heaving rapidly due to anger, ravaged the two round iron galls in his hands, and said lightly: "Little girl, I heard that you are good at swordsmanship. Who did you learn from? Maybe, it depends on your master In terms of face, I can still let you go."

As an old jerk who has been in the rivers and lakes for decades, Ma Wuye's biggest characteristic is that he acts cautiously.

Before doing anything, ask about the background of the other party.

If the background is ordinary, it is natural to eat a clean sheet.If the background is similar, sell the other side a face.As for those with a strong background, Ma Wuye also has his own set of special methods to remedy them.

Anyway, he won't easily provoke the enemy.

just.

Zhou Xiaomeng was in a bad mood, and had no intention of talking nonsense with Ma Wuye.

Seeing the other party chattering endlessly, he immediately whipped the horsewhip over him, and said disdainfully, "You also want to know my master's name?!"

"Snapped--"

The fifth master of the horse was caught off guard, and the two iron galls in his hands were directly whipped away by the whip, and Gu Lulu rolled into the grass by the roadside.

"It turned out to be a good-looking product!"

Zhou Xiaomeng smiled disdainfully, and whipped the whip at Master Ma again.

Ma Wuye was furious, he squeezed his hands into claws, and grabbed the whip that Zhou Xiaomeng had pulled out.

Zhou Xiaomeng tugged hard.

Ma Wuye also used his strength at the same time.

"Snapped--"

The whip was broken in two.

Both of them flickered.

Just now, Zhou Xiaomeng also tested Ma Wuye's strength.As far as skill is concerned, it's almost the same as her. It's like the sea of ​​qi is perfect and is about to break through to gang qi.

At the moment, there is no fear.

Throwing half of the horsewhip, the long sword came out of its sheath with a clang, and stabbed Wuye Ma's chest without hesitation.

Zhou Xiaomeng never thought of holding back from these scumbags who cheated, kidnapped and plundered.

Ma Wuye also threw away half of the whip in his hand, and with his claws out, he was about to grab Zhou Xiaomeng's sword.

What he practiced was hands-on kung fu, especially good at snatching white blades with bare hands.

In his eyes, there is not much difference between a long sword or a riding whip.

just.

As soon as Ma Wuye's claws entered the coverage of Zhou Xiaomeng's long sword, his heart jumped immediately, feeling that something was wrong.

This little girl disguised as a man's swordsmanship was so fierce that it completely exceeded Ma Wuye's expectations.

Before touching the blade, the murderous aura released from the sword has already stimulated the pain of Ma Wuye's claws.

Ma Wuye hastily withdrew his hands, but it was too late.

Half of the palm was cut off by the sharp blade.

"Huashan Sword Art!"

Ma Wuye exclaimed.

Zhou Xiaomeng was slightly surprised.

This old guy's martial arts are not very good, but his knowledge is extraordinary.

but.

Since this old man recognized his own sword skills, there was no need to keep him.

Zhou Xiaomeng stretched out his long sword, took advantage of the victory and pursued, and stabbed Ma Wuye's throat.

Ma Wuye sprinted back and dodged, while angrily shouting at his subordinates: "Why are you still standing there, let's go together and kill this little girl!"

The thugs didn't dare to neglect, and rushed up one after another brandishing their swords.

Ma Wuye took the opportunity to retreat behind the crowd, tore off half of his clothes and wrapped them around his bleeding palms.

Most of these thugs are just ninth-rank body forging, and the strongest one is only seventh-rank Tongmai.Zhou Xiaomeng swung his long sword like a tiger entering a herd of sheep.

Fortunately, there were too many people. Zhou Xiaomeng didn't directly kill these minions, most of them just crippled their arms or wrists.

Ma Wuye, who was hiding behind the crowd, looked ugly.

In the blink of an eye, four or five of his subordinates had already fallen.

The gap between the two sides is too large, and if the fight continues, it will only be the result of annihilation of the entire army.

Ma Wuye looked at his severed hand dripping with blood, and a gloomy look flashed across his eyes.

He quietly took out a bamboo tube from his waist, put it under his right armpit, pulled out the plug with his intact left hand, and carefully took out a round object from the bamboo tube.

"Fuck! Thunderbolt!"

Jiang Nan, who has been paying attention to Ma Wuye, his eyelids twitched.

This kind of forbidden hidden weapon of the Tang Sect of Xishu, Jiang Nan was fortunate to have seen it up close once.At that time, Baoziling Dacheng, the leader of Tiebushan Dacheng, was bombed to death.

A delicate little girl like Zhou Xiaomeng has never practiced physical exercise before, so if she is caught off guard by being blown up, she will definitely die.

Looking at the appearance of Fifth Master Ma, he seemed to be thrown directly into the crowd besieging Zhou Xiaomeng, completely disregarding the lives of many of his subordinates.

"This old thing is a cruel man!"

Jiang Nan sighed in his heart, and the golden-winged flying snake in the skin pouch around his waist was released quietly.

Immediately afterwards, a loud shout: "Hi! Ma Laowu!"

Hearing the sound, Ma Wuye paused when he was about to throw a thunderbolt, and subconsciously followed the reputation to look at Jiangnan.

"Why, don't you know me?"

As Jiang Nan approached Ma Wuye, he said solemnly: "I am the uncle of your second uncle's eldest son's third uncle's brother's second brother's daughter's daughter, don't you remember?"

"Second uncle's eldest son's third uncle..."

Ma Wuye subconsciously curled his fingers with his remaining left hand.

With a movement of the finger, the round pilizi almost fell to the ground.

Ma Wuye realized that he had been cheated, and immediately became furious: "Good boy, you are entertaining me!"

Before he finished speaking, his ankle suddenly hurt.

"Oops!" Ma Wuye exclaimed in his heart, raising his left hand, he was about to change the target of Pilizi to Jiangnan.

The long sword in Jiangnan's hand was like a fleeting shadow, and it crossed the left wrist of Ma Wuye holding the pilizi.

Ma Wuye was bitten by the golden-winged flying snake, his whole body was stiff, his wrist was injured, and he couldn't even stimulate the thunderbolt.

The falling pilizi was gently grabbed by Jiangnan.

This is a rare good thing!
The damage may be limited to the masters above the stellar energy, but the victory lies in the frightening momentum.Even if the Longmen masters saw it, they would dodge subconsciously.

Moreover, this thing is a group attack.

Even if it can't hurt people, it can still disgust people and make the other person look ashamed.

Ma Wuye was poisonous, his eyes were wide open, his body shook, and he fell to the ground.

Jiang Nan reached out and took the bamboo tube under Ma Wuye's armpit.

It was found that the inner wall of the bamboo tube was covered with a layer of fur of an unknown animal, apparently to prevent the pilizi from colliding with the wall of the tube when the bamboo tube was shaken.

Jiang Nan reinstalled the pilizi in peace of mind, and plugged it with a stopper.

On the side, nearly half of Ma Wuye's men had fallen.

The rest of the people obviously also discovered the change in Ma Wuye.

They didn't see the Golden Winged Flying Snake, but they saw Jiangnan making a sword.Thinking that this handsome scholar is a more powerful master than this little girl, he has already killed Ma Wuye.

Horrified, they didn't bother to besiege Zhou Xiaomeng, and immediately dispersed.

There were too many people, and Zhou Xiaomeng didn't intend to kill them all.

Watching the thugs flee away, Zhou Xiaomeng turned to Jiangnan and said in a cold voice, "I thought you wouldn't make a move and let them besiege me!"

Dissatisfaction was evident in his tone.

"If I don't make a move, you're probably gone." Jiang Nan said lightly, rubbing the bamboo tube in his hand.

"Hmph! What can a group of native chickens and dogs do to me?" Zhou Xiaomeng said disdainfully: "At most, it's just a few more swords."

"Really? What do you think this is?"

Jiang Nan carefully opened the stopper of the bamboo tube in his hand.

"Pilizi?!" Zhou Xiaomeng exclaimed in shock.

As a disciple of Huashan Sword Sect, Zhou Xiaomeng has extraordinary knowledge.

When he was sure that the round thing in the bamboo tube was really a thunderbolt, his face turned pale.

She has been with Jiangnan for a long time, and she basically knows what is on Jiangnan.

This bamboo tube was obviously taken by Jiangnan from Ma Wuye just now.

So, what is Ma Wuye going to do with the pilizi?
The answer is self-evident.

If he faced this thunderbolt face to face, Zhou Xiaomeng was confident that he could dodge it by relying on lightness kungfu and agility.

But what if someone used a thunderbolt to attack you when you were under siege...

As a result, Zhou Xiaomeng couldn't imagine it at all.

Zhou Xiaomeng looked at Jiangnan with complicated eyes.

In just half a day, this man who didn't know if his real name was "Li Qingshan" had already saved himself twice!
Whether he wants to admit it or not, Zhou Xiaomeng understands that the relationship between the two has become more and more complicated, and it is almost impossible to figure it out.

Ignore Zhou Xiaomeng's daze.

Jiang Nan stuffed the bamboo tube again and stuffed it into the bundle on his back.

He leaned over and groped around Ma Wuye for a while.

This Wuye Ma is worthy of being a man of fortune, and his net worth is indeed very rich.Just the bank notes, I brought more than 1 taels with me.There is also a jade pendant, and a small packet of gold leaves.

Jiang Nan thought for a while, stuffed the silver ticket into his arms, and handed the jade pendant and gold leaf to Zhou Xiaomeng.

"Whoever sees it has a share." Jiang Nan said with a smile.
