Sword of Punishment

After Zhou Hua left Yingxiang Residence, six days passed in the blink of an eye. During this period, except for the time when he went to the mine, Ji Yuan spent the rest of his time cultivating. After giving it to him, he was hurrying up to practice this exercise, probably because he had practiced the basic exercise "Dabei Shenligong" and the Taoist exercise "Sapphire Washing Essence Kungfu", and it was only half a month before he was accepted He has cultivated to the second level, if his master finds out, he will be stunned again.

However, the exercises on the "Upgrading the True Body Art" are a bit weird. Ji Yuan didn't feel any increase in strength after practicing to the second level, but his body muscles became a little softer.

It took Zhu Yuetian four or fifty years of practice to reach the seventh floor, which is the foundational method of the "Superior Tempering Real Body Art", "Dabei Shenli Gong". There is no way to practice the "Upgrading the True Body Art", and Ji Yuan has only practiced for less than 50 days and has reached the second level. Can he not be stunned?What made Zhu Yuetianfa think even more was that Ji Yuan practiced the "Dabei Divine Power Kung Fu" without even taking a year to complete it.

However, Ji Yuan has never found a way to practice the "Empty Control Sword Technique" recorded on that piece of white jade. Ji Yuan also tied this piece of white jade with a rope and hung it around his neck as an ornament.

And the set of marksmanship that Zhu Yuetian passed on to him was also practiced by him within half a month. If he used the "Sapphire True Qi" he cultivated to use the "Hunyuan Shocking Spear", Zhu Yuetian probably wouldn't be able to take a single shot. [

On the contrary, although the swordsmanship he secretly learned from the man in black who assassinated him has not yet achieved great success, after a few days of exploration, he has discovered many exquisite moves. After all, there are no formulas, so he just I can slowly explore on my own.

Six days ago, when the man in black died, he also searched the man in black. Except for a few banknotes, there was nothing of value. It was impossible to find any clues. , not to mention being able to find the cheat book that recorded that sword technique, which made him somewhat regretful.

At this time, Ji Yuan was practicing that set of sword skills with the sword of the man in black. He fumbled out nine moves in this set of sword skills. It is exquisite and exquisite. The most exquisite thing is not to pierce the nine acupoints, but to release the nine swords and at the same time transform the sword energy into a gang, forming nine swords and energy, which can hurt people more than ten feet away. Diligence can hurt people more than a hundred feet away. When he used the sapphire true energy to perform this move, he can now use the sword qi at a distance of fifteen feet, which is farther than the sword qi issued by the man in black back then.

When Ji Yuan used this move, the color of the sword qi was actually blue, but when the man in black used this move, it was indeed white. It seems that this is different from the attributes of personal cultivation skills.

It is now around [-]:[-] pm, and Ji Yuan just didn't go to the mine today. After lunch, Ji Yuan was studying this exquisite move of piercing nine acupoints with a sword. He didn't expect to be too involved. He sat for four hours. As soon as he changed, he yelled: "No! How could I have forgotten this! Master is in danger now!"

Ji Yuan suddenly thought of a very serious problem. When the man in black came to assassinate him, it must not have been an individual act, because he had no grievances with that man at all, and that man came to kill him because he was Zhu Yuetian's apprentice. The man in black had already confirmed this, but now the man in black died by his own hands.

The behind-the-scenes messengers sent to assassinate themselves found that the man in black hadn't returned for so many days. They must have thought that something must have happened to the man in black. If something happened, there was only one thing, and that was that the assassination was unsuccessful. , but was killed by others.

The only person who can kill the man in black in Zhu's Mine is the mysterious masked man who protected Zhu Yuetian at the beginning. This means that the mysterious masked man should now protect Zhu Yuetian's apprentices in Zhu's Mine, and there is no one around Zhu Yuetian. Expert protection.

If the messenger behind the scenes knew that the mysterious masked man was not by Zhu Yuetian's side, then their next plan might be to assassinate Zhu Yuetian, and at the same time to snatch the red red profound spirit.

Thinking of this, Ji Yuan panicked. It has been six days now, and I hope that the mastermind behind the scenes has not had time to send someone to assassinate Zhu Yuetian.

Then he immediately hid the sword in his hand under the ground in a corner of the courtyard dam. He dare not take out this sword now, otherwise, his identity would be exposed. Then he packed up a few more clothes and beat A package immediately went to Wu Kouzhong.

After a while, they arrived at the mining area. Along the way, the guards and miners saw that Ji Yuan was carrying a package as if he was about to go out, and they all showed doubts. Some guards trotted all the way to report to Wu Kouzhong.

When Ji Yuan came to the area where Wu Kouzhong was handling affairs, he saw Wu Kouzhong walking over with a puzzled face. Wu Kouzhong saw Ji Yuan holding the package from a long distance, and Ji Yuan came to Wu Kouzhong in three or two steps , without waiting for Wu Kouzhong to open his mouth, he immediately said to Wu Kouzhong in a somewhat anxious tone:

"Mine Manager Wu, find me a fast horse right away, I'm going to Master Jingzhou's place."

Wu Kouzhong heard the words, looked at Ji Yuan with some puzzlement and said, "Master, what's the matter? Are you in such a hurry?"

"Mine Manager Wu, I don't have time to tell you now, you should prepare immediately, the matter is urgent!" Seeing that Wu Kouzhong was still asking non-stop, Ji Yuan frowned, feeling anxious, said in a commanding tone, and raised his voice .

"Ah? Young master, why don't I send ten guards to go with you? You all know that if you go to Jingzhou City alone, I'm afraid something will happen if the road is not safe. How can I explain to Master Zhu then!" Seeing Ji Yuan's expression and hearing Ji Yuan's tone of voice, Wu Kouzhong was stunned. This Ji Yuan had never spoken to himself like this before, and he was always very polite to himself. What's the matter today?Is there really something urgent?

Wu Kouzhong knew that as soon as Ji Yuan left Zhu's Mine, news would spread to other mining areas. There might be some danger along the way, so he said he would send ten guards to escort Ji Yuan to Jingzhou City.

"No need! I can go alone!" Ji Yuan immediately refused. If there are guards by his side, it will be difficult for him to do things. The reason why Ji Yuan wants to go to Jingzhou City with great fanfare is to let other mining areas know his whereabouts. If the mastermind behind the killer knew his whereabouts, firstly, he would come to chase him down, and secondly, if he knew that he had gone to Jingzhou City, then they might have thought that the mysterious masked man who secretly protected the master might be in the dark. Protect yourself, don't dare to attack yourself, as long as you get to Jingzhou City, master will be safe. [

The worst plan is that the master messenger behind the scenes has already sent someone to Jingzhou City, then the master is really in big trouble, so now he is very anxious, and his tone of speech is not the same as before.His tone was heavy, and he inadvertently released a kind of coercion that only a master can have.

Wu Kouzhong looked at the Ji Yuan in front of him as if he had suddenly changed into a different person, his heart trembled, this Ji Yuan seemed to have suddenly become unknown to him, he was actually a little scared in his heart, and his whole body shivered violently .

"Ah! Good! Come on, get ready a good horse right away!" Wu Kouzhong came to his senses, and immediately ordered the guards around him.

The guard immediately trotted away, and within a short while, a black steed was led by the guard. When Ji Yuan saw the horse arrived, he didn't speak, and turned over and sat on the horse lightly, "Drive!" Qinghe, the black horse strung out for more than a foot, and it was carrying a good horse, and then there was a dense sound of horseshoes, and it left the mining area in a short time.

It wasn't until the black steed disappeared in front of Wu Kouzhong's eyes that he realized: "Come on, hurry up and protect the young master with 30 people! Come back and report immediately if there is any situation! Send a letter to Master Zhu immediately!"

Afterwards, thirty guards hurriedly chased Ji Yuan away.

At this time, Ji Yuan on horseback can be said to be very anxious. He kept comforting himself, hoping that there was still time. Originally, it would take half a day to ride a fast horse to Jingzhou City, and three days to walk, but now Ji Yuan thought the horse wasn't fast enough, so he kept whipping it. The dark horse probably had a bit of spirituality, and it galloped away like an arrow faster than ever before.

Three hours later, under Ji Yuan's continuous lashing of his whip, he finally arrived at Jingzhou City. At this time, the sky had gradually darkened, and the entire Jingzhou City was already lit up, and the gorgeous lights illuminated Jingzhou City brightly. , the street shops on both sides of the street are still booming.The streets were bustling with people, not cooler than during the day, but Ji Yuan is not in the mood to appreciate these things now.

Ji Yuan, who was driving on horseback, suddenly slapped himself on the head: "Oh!" It turned out that he just remembered that he had left in such a hurry that he forgot to ask where the master's home was.

But he knew that the master's manor seemed to be called Zhu's manor, so it should be easy to find out.Then he inquired many times, and his hard work paid off, and he soon found out about Zhu's Manor. When Ji Yuan came to the gate of Zhu's Manor, he saw several familiar figures.

When he saw these people, Ji Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, because one of the four guards guarding the gate was one of the sixteen confidants around Zhu Yuetian, and that person was Zhang Wei, who was talking to Zhang Wei. When he heard the sound of horseshoes at the door, he turned his head to look, and was taken aback for a moment. He didn't realize it until Ji Yuan came to him. He looked at Ji Yuan with some doubts, and asked:

"you are?"

Seeing Zhang Wei's weird expression, Ji Yuan felt a little funny: "Uncle Zhang Wei! Don't you know me? I'm Ji Yuan!"

"Ah! You are really Young Master Ji. I said, why do you feel so familiar! I didn't remember it for a while! The young master has grown a lot taller than a year ago, so I didn't recognize it. Don't be surprised, young master!" Zhang Wei suddenly realized road.

It turned out that although Zhang Wei had met Ji Yuan, it was almost a year ago. At that time, Ji Yuan was dressed in tatters and his face was dirty. Even this time when Zhu Yuetian accepted Ji Yuan as his apprentice, Zhang Wei did not go to the mining area. Now Not only did Ji Yuan change his clothes, but he also grew a lot taller. His whole temperament changed, and he became like a rich man. In addition, he practiced magic skills, and his appearance exuded a unique temperament. People look a little elegant!So Zhang Wei didn't recognize it for a while, but felt as if he had seen it somewhere.
