Being too ferocious because of caution

Chapter 312 "How can a sword be evil without a name?" The man in black

Heavy snow.

The salt scattered all over the sky eventually became goose feathers covering the ground.

Lu State is in the north, and it is midwinter now.

A group of people wearing thin black clothes stood on the top of the white mountain, looking at the people entering and leaving Tongyin Pass in the distance, silent.

The leader was a woman holding a sword in a red gauze skirt.

She had a beautiful face and a cold attitude.

She bloomed like a snow lotus, but she was independent and not for anyone in the world.

A man in black came from the distant snow behind him, holding a sword and coming forward.

"Lord Hongyu, Lord Fan has entered the territory of Lu."

"Should we... continue to follow him?"

Hongyu said calmly:

"Of course."

Her subordinates were silent for a while, somewhat puzzled:

"I have one thing I don't understand...Since Lord Fan has already taken action, isn't it a bit redundant for us to go to Lu?"

"Lord Fan is the world's number one swordsman, and also the most cold-blooded and ruthless person in the world. He only has the sword in his eyes, and he is extremely decisive. Let him chase and kill the ghost scholar, it should be a sure thing..."

Hongyu did not answer his question, her eyes passed through the vast snow and wind in front of her, a little hazy.

…

A few days ago.

Qi State, Jinluan Palace.

Hongyu walked 300 meters outside the palace, took off her long sword and clothes.

After being carefully searched by the palace maids, she put on her dress again, came to the palace, and met the elderly King of Qi on the dragon throne.

"What did the king call me for?"

Hongyu knelt on one knee, looking respectful.

The King of Qi slowly opened his eyes, with supreme majesty in his eyes.

"Hongyu is here?"

"Stand up."

Hongyu stood up.

The King of Qi continued:

"I want you to take the 'Yin Ya' organization cultivated by the court to Lu State to find the ghost scholar Su Xingcan... and kill him!"

Hongyu looked down at the floor of the Golden Palace, was silent for a while, and whispered:

"Yes."

The King of Qi looked at Hongyu, smiling:

"You must find it very strange..."

"Why did I send Fan Qingxue and send the Yin Ya organization again..."

"It seems very unnecessary, right?"

Hongyu's eyes flickered:

"Your Majesty wants Hongyu... to do something else?"

The King of Qi laughed loudly Smile:

"You are...smart."

"But I don't know if you are loyal."

Hongyu immediately knelt on one knee and said in a loud voice:

"Hongyu is absolutely loyal to the king. The three thousand warriors of Yin Ya are at the king's disposal!"

"I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

When the King of Qi saw this, he waved his dragon robe:

"Okay!"

"Hongyu, listen to me!"

"I... want you to take the warriors of Yin Ya and help me keep an eye on Fan Qingxue!"

"If he lets the ghost scholar Su Xingcan go, you will help me get rid of these two people!"

Hongyu's pupils shrank slightly.

Seeing that she did not accept the order immediately, the King of Qi raised his eyebrows slightly:

"What?"

"Don't want to?"

Hongyu hurriedly said:

"Hongyu accept the order!"

The King of Qi slowly walked down the steps. The red curtain on the side of the hall was blown by the wind, like a rolling sea of ​​blood. The three hundred candles in the hall flickered...

He slowly put his hand on Hongyu's shoulder.

The tone was meaningful:

"I know that you are Fan Qingxue's disciple who was raised by him, and you have deep feelings for him...so I asked you to help me keep an eye on him!"

"If Fan Qingxue didn't 'betray' me, then he naturally wouldn't have to die."

Although Hongyu has a cold personality, she is smart.

She understood what the King of Qi said.

-As long as the ghost scholar died, Fan Qingxue wouldn't have to die.

So, she immediately bowed to the King of Qi and said:

"Hongyu...will definitely live up to the King's trust!"

...

"Lu is far away from Qi, the journey is tiring, and the rivers and lakes are full of good and bad people..."

"In addition, the ghost scholar is full of tricks, and there are many people who admire his reputation. Fan Qingxue alone may not be able to do it!"

"In order to ensure that everything is foolproof, the King sent us to secretly assist Fan Qingxue and get rid of the ghost scholar!"

Hongyu, who usually speaks very little, rarely explained a few words to his subordinates today.

Then the group disappeared like ghosts in the cold winter wind...

At this moment.

In the territory of Lu.

In the inn outside Peicheng, everyone was drinking for fun, bragging and joking with each other noisily, and talking about the secret of the Blue Dragon Seven Stars finally coming to the world.

Everyone is paying special attention to the secret of the Blue Dragon and the Seven Stars this time. The courts of different countries have issued decrees - anyone who can bring the Blue Dragon and the Seven Stars back to his country will be directly rewarded with a title of Marquis of Wanhu, regardless of his background or age, and will be given an additional thousand acres of good land and ten thousand taels of gold!

Where there is an advantage, there must be someone.

Most of the people in the rivers and lakes do not drink and ride horses in the rivers and lakes because they like this kind of life, but because they are forced to do so.

Free and easy?

No.

There are not many people in the rivers and lakes who are truly free and easy.

A more accurate description is called wandering.

Now that the court has issued a decree, ordinary civilians may also rise to prominence, and they will certainly not miss such a great opportunity!

A hundred percent profit can drive people crazy.

What's more, it is a profitable business?

For a time, the rivers and lakes were in turmoil, and countless heroes rose up and rushed to the State of Lu frantically!

"The astronomical phenomenon 'Seven Stars in a Row', which is rare in a thousand years, is about to come. The location of the Blue Dragon and the Seven Stars will also be revealed by the star map. At that time, there will definitely be a bloody storm, and all the scholars will compete with each other..."

"I heard that even the world's number one swordsman Fan Qingxue has come to Lu..."

"Hiss - Fan Qingxue is here too? Is it true?"

"It's true, but it seems that it's not for the Blue Dragon and the Seven Stars, but for one person."

"Who?"

"The Ghost and God Scholar!"

"Isn't the Ghost and God Scholar the national teacher of Qi?"

"He is the national teacher, second only to the emperor, and above ten thousand people! But for some reason, the Ghost and God Scholar... defected from Qi and came to Lu."

"Qi is the most powerful among the six countries. Every year, the kings of other countries have to pay tribute to the King of Qi. With the majesty of the King of Qi, how can he tolerate his national teacher betraying him?"

"This Fan Qingxue... must be here to kill the Ghost and God Scholar..."

The crowd ate and drank while chatting.

Zhao Yi and Su Qingyao sat in a corner of the inn, sipping some wine and feeling the biting winter wind outside the window.

In fact, the snow scenery outside the inn is very beautiful.

A stone bridge, a snowy forest, and a glacier.

Both of them changed into ancient costumes.

A velvet robe.

Zhao Yi had already seen the ghost scholar.

He sat on the other side of the inn, also tilting his head to look at the snow outside the window.

Zhao Yi did not immediately approach him.

Because the timing was not right.

The basic condition for building trust with a smart person is... your actions must not look deliberate.

So Zhao Yi and Su Qingyao only drank and enjoyed the snow.

The atmosphere of the inn was pretty good.

Until a group of black-clothed men with bamboo hats broke in from outside the door.

They were carrying the biting wind and snow, and murderous intent.

As they entered the inn, the temperature in the inn immediately dropped a lot.

"Stay in the hotel."

The leading black-clothed man said to the waiter who nodded and bowed in front of him.

The waiter and the accountant exchanged glances, and then said with an apologetic look:

"I'm sorry, my guest, the rooms in our inn are fully booked..."

The man in black said coldly:

"Why don't you just let those people go?"

The waiter's face was slightly stiff.

Cold sweat oozed from his palms holding the rag.

Although he didn't know martial arts, he could feel the tense murderous aura in the air of the inn at this moment.

At this moment, he couldn't agree or refuse.

The waiter was very wary of these people in the martial arts world. The more famous they were, the more decisive they were in killing...If he didn't pay attention, he would probably be beheaded!

What to do?

A lot of sweat oozed from the waiter's forehead.

Luckily, at this time, some other people in the inn also stood up!

"Where did the wild dog come from?"

"I'm drinking a glass of wine, and you're buzzing around my ears like a fly, so annoying... Get out of here if you have nothing to do!"

"Otherwise, my nine-ring long sword is not a vegetarian!"

A big man with tiger eyes and eagle nose shook the long sword in his hand with a cold look on his face.

However, the man in black was not scared by his words, but just glanced at him coldly.

The next moment, the man in black suddenly attacked!

A dart suddenly shot out of his hand!

Whoosh!

The dart actually made a terrible sonic boom in the air.

Before the strong man could react, the dart had already pierced his head!

He looked at the man in black in disbelief, and blood slowly fell from his forehead.

Bang!

The strong man fell to the ground...

This move directly shocked the other diners in the inn!

"Tiger Roaring Dragon Roaring Realm!"

Someone exclaimed.

In the Warring States Period, most people practiced ancient martial arts.

Ancient martial arts is not simply about training the body, it involves many messy side branches.

For example, swordsmanship, knife skills and other eighteen martial arts.

It also includes internal strength and heart formulas, etc.

In this world, there is also a strict division of the internal strength and heart formula martial arts realm, which includes:

-Postnatal realm, innate realm, tiger roar dragon roar realm, Tongtian mortal realm (half-step great evil), Haoran Yiqi realm (quasi-great evil), Tianrenheyi realm (great evil).

It can be said that all the changes in ancient martial arts are almost all driven by internal strength.

So the cultivation of internal strength is crucial!

The Great Zhou split and the Warring States came. Martial artists in the tiger roar dragon roar realm are already rare masters in the world.

Although there are many, they account for a small proportion.

As the black-clothed man made his move, the people in the inn who were eager to stand up and fight him could only pretend to stretch and sit down again in shame...

After killing the big man, the black-clothed man who was the leader did not stop fighting, but looked at the man and woman in the corner in the distance with a serious expression.

Some people in the inn reacted and looked in the direction of the black-clothed man's gaze.

They saw that the hidden weapon shot by the black-clothed man just now, after piercing the big man's head, was easily caught by the slender woman with two fingers and placed in the palm of her hand to play with...

And the evil and handsome man sitting opposite the slender woman tilted his head and kept looking out the window, seemingly indifferent to everything that happened just now...

PS: I have a lot of relatives to attend today, sorry! !
