It was about nine o'clock in the morning at Sishi. Lin Xiu probably wouldn't have time to double practice with Princess Minghe tomorrow, so she had to let her know in advance today, and Lingyin also had to let her know.

Back home at night, Lin Xiu was sitting at the table, and the cockatoo flew in from outside.

These days, Lin Xiu has not stopped monitoring the prince.

Perhaps because the previous two assassinations failed, the prince couldn't find a more powerful assassin for a while, and he never arranged a new operation against Lin Xiu.

But he obviously won't give up, and the next assassin he will send is very likely to be a ground-level assassin.

Rao Lin Xiu still has a lot of hidden cards, but he still has no chance of defeating the strong ones at the ground level. Lin Xiu can clearly see the gap between him and the ground level instructors of the Martial Arts Academy.

In this case, every time he went out of the city openly, he was in danger.

But when he goes out of the city tomorrow, he will have a teacher by his side and two secret detectives to protect him, even if the crown prince really sends out a low-level assassin, there will be no return.

And under the strict surveillance of the parrot, Lin Xiu knew that the prince was either cultivating or dealing with official business today, and he had two maids in the middle of it, but he didn't see anyone else.

Early the next morning, Lin Xiu arrived at the Martial Arts Academy on time. There were already several figures waiting on the school grounds.

These people are no strangers to Lin Xiu, without exception, they are all his classmates in Tianzi Academy.

Previously, martial arts cultivation was the minimum requirement for entering the Tianziyuan to step into the upper realm of the mysterious rank, so these people, regardless of gender, were all in the upper realm of the mysterious rank, except for Lin Xiu, of course.

Although Lin Xiu's martial arts cultivation base is very low, none of the geniuses in Tianziyuan dare to underestimate him.

Because he is fast.

Any one of them, with Lin Xiu's speed, can sweep everyone in Tianziyuan except them, so even if Lin Xiu's true energy is weak, they still give him the respect of the strong.

When Lin Xiu came to the school grounds, everyone took the initiative to salute with fists in the palm of their hands.

Lin Xiu also returned the salute one by one, remembering the names of these people by the way, every student in the Martial Dao Academy is selected one in a thousand, one in a thousand, they can stand out among hundreds of geniuses, and occupy the top spot in the Tianzi Academy. A seat where everyone excels.

For this actual combat training, there are only eleven students from the Tianzi Academy.

To this end, the college is equipped with fifteen earth-level instructors.

Each teacher is responsible for one student, and this is the unique resource of Tianzi Academy. Training outside is dangerous, and the academy will ensure the safety of every genius.

The location of this training is Yunshan.

After leaving the city, the teacher told them about today's mission.

A few days ago, a group of vicious bandits appeared in the area of ​​Yunshan. They robbed a caravan passing by the foot of Yunshan, killed all the merchants and accompanying guards of the caravan, and then fled into Yunshan without a trace. .

Yunshan is connected to Baiyun Mountain, and it is unrealistic to send troops to encircle and suppress a few bandits on a large scale. In order to train the actual combat ability of the people in Tianziyuan, the Martial Arts Academy took this task over.

The task of Lin Xiu and the others is to find out these gangsters and exterminate them.

Those people must be hiding somewhere in Yunshan Mountain. They dare not go deep into Baiyun Mountain Range. The strange beasts there are much more terrifying than the imperial court's pursuers.

However, even so, this task is not easy. It is not only a test of their actual combat ability, but it is not easy to find those people in this vast mountain.

The Martial Arts Institute doesn't want the students they train to be reckless men who can only fight. The students of the academy often participate in this kind of real missions.

Of course, this kind of dangerous task is not for nothing.

Those who find and eradicate these gangsters will be rewarded a lot by the academy.

The reward this time is a weapon made of meteorite.

Meteorite is generally wrapped in the center of a large meteorite. This is a material that does not exist on the mainland and only exists outside the sky. Its density and hardness far exceed that of ordinary steel.

Only when meteorites fall, will a small amount of meteorite be produced.

Weapons made of meteoric iron are the best weapons. In addition to being far superior to ordinary weapons in sharpness and hardness, this material is also easier to infuse true energy, making it the most ideal weapon for warriors.

If he could get a meteorite spear, then the one he was carrying on his back now could be thrown away.

At this time, Teacher Bai looked at Lin Xiu and said, "This is not a college. You must be vigilant at all times. Although I will protect your safety, all accidents cannot be avoided. In the past ten years, there have been two Students, die in this kind of mission."

Lin Xiu nodded seriously, "I see."

According to reliable information, there are about ten gangsters in this group, two of them are at the upper level of the Xuan level, and the rest are at the lower level of the Xuan level or at the Huang level. No one has been found to be a person with supernatural powers.

A bandit of this strength can be dealt with by anyone in the Tianzi Academy.

After entering Yunshan, the 11 people separated.

Bai Jiaoxi followed Lin Xiu ten feet away. He was only responsible for protecting Lin Xiu's safety and would not provide him with any help. The old beggar and the shopkeeper also followed Bai Jiaoxi. Their mission was to protect Lin Xiu. Even if Lin Xiu was surrounded by teachers from the Martial Arts Institute, they would not let Lin Xiu leave their sight.

Finding someone in the mountains is not an easy task.

Even though Lin Xiu has amazing eyesight and is good at observing subtle traces, but the cloud mountain is too big and overgrown with trees, even if he flies into the sky, all he can see is the canopy of trees.

He had to find some helpers for himself.

"Bang Bang Bang..."

On a tree in front of Lin Xiu, a woodpecker was pecking at the tree. Suddenly, it stopped and flapped its wings to fly high into the sky.

Not long after, more than a dozen birds flew up from the forest one after another, and flew to the depths of Yunshan Mountain from different directions.

At the same time, other students of Tianzi Academy also found some traces.

Zhou Hong stood beside a large extinguished fire, observed for a long time, chose a direction, and moved on.

Zheng Yi circulated his zhenqi to his legs, jumped up and down on the tree trunk, and finally found a few rows of footprints on a certain path. The footprints were extremely deep, and it looked like he was carrying a heavy load...

Lin Xiu was walking aimlessly in the forest, and he heard birdsong from time to time. Whenever this happened, he would change direction. Of course, in the eyes of Bai Jiaoxi and others, his whereabouts appeared to be irregular .

After walking for another quarter of an hour, Lin Xiu stopped.

This place was originally a remote mountain, and even hunters would not go deep into it, but some of the dwarf shrubs growing here had obvious traces of being hacked with swords, apparently to open the way.

Under the bushes, there was also a row of messy footprints.

Judging from the footprints, a total of eight people walked through here.

Lin Xiu looked at the broken branch, and the traces were still new, that is to say, those people hadn't gone far.

He followed the trail left by the bushes and continued forward.

Soon, Teacher Bai walked to his place, looking at the remaining traces around him, he was extremely surprised.

I actually got hit by him...

What is this luck?

Chapter 104 I didn't expect it!

cloud mountain.

A platform on the edge of a cliff somewhere on the mountainside.

Eight figures sat around the fire, with several large boxes piled up not far behind them.

One person took the roasted deer leg away from the fire, took a bite, then spat it out on the ground, gritted his teeth and said: "There is no salt and seasoning, no taste at all, it's almost fading out, what? It's time to go out!"

A burly middle-aged man on the opposite side took a bite of venison, chewed a few mouthfuls and swallowed it, and said, "Be patient, after finishing this job, you can have whatever you want for the rest of your life."

This time they got the news early that although the caravan was small, the value of the goods was very high.

Based on the value of this batch of goods, I originally wanted to find a powerful bodyguard escort, but in order to save the money for hiring bodyguards, the merchants of this caravan only brought a team of ordinary guards, pretending to be ordinary merchants with no valuables, so They got it easily.

However, it is easy to get it. If you escape the siege of the government and transport the things out, it is the biggest problem.

Fortunately, the Yunshan Mountain is big enough and connected to the Baiyun Mountain Range. Looking for a few people here is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Not only that, but they also intentionally left wrong traces. If someone looks for them according to the traces, they will only get farther and farther away from them. When the matter gradually subsides in the past January or two, they can leave here and enjoy the rest of their lives of glory and wealth.

The value of this batch of goods is enough for them to squander the rest of their lives.

A few people gathered around the fire and grilled meat, while imagining the future.

"When I get out, I must eat restaurants every day for a whole month!"

"I want to go to the brothel every day. I have stayed in the mountains for a long time. Just now I saw a wild boar and felt pretty."

"Look at how promising you guys are. If it's me, I'll just buy a big house, a few beautiful wives, and a few maids, and let's taste what it's like to be served every day..."

……

"Then I'm afraid you have no chance."

Just when everyone was chatting in full swing, a voice that didn't fit in suddenly came in.

"Who!"

"who!"

Everyone turned around and looked in a certain direction. A young figure walked out from behind a big tree. He looked less than 20 years old, with a long gun on his back, and was looking at them with a calm expression.

Everyone was taken aback when they saw this.

Was this found by someone?

It's just that the imperial court looked down on them too much, didn't they send such a brat?

A man laughed and stood up, saying: "I was sitting on the ground, my ass was so cold, I just chopped off this guy's head and used it as a stool!"

He stood up, picked up the two big knives beside him, touched each other, making the sound of gold and iron clashing, and then strode towards Lin Xiu.

As he walked, he said with a mocking smile: "Boy, although I don't know how you found this place, I can only count you as unlucky. The scenery here is so beautiful. I want to bury you here after I die. It's more than enough to bury you... er .”

Before he finished speaking, he held his throat and stared at Lin Xiu with wide-open eyes, which were full of shock.

Blood gushed out from his fingers, and the vitality in his eyes quickly dissipated, and the corpse fell heavily on the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

Lin Xiu held the gun in one hand, watched the man's body fall to the ground, and said slowly, "As you wish."

These people slaughtered a caravan, and their hands must have been stained with blood before. They were the ones who deserved to die. Lin Xiu acted decisively without mercy.

All this happened very quickly, from the time the big man got up and walked towards Lin Xiu, to the time when the corpse fell to the ground, it only took a few breaths.

The gangsters by the fire didn't even react immediately.

A moment later, the sound of furious cursing came one after another.

"You dare!"

"Sixth brother!"

"Shuzi, take your life!"

One of the men with a face full of flesh jumped up directly, holding a big knife in his hand, and slashed at Lin Xiu.

clang!

Lin Xiu fired his gun at the same time, the weapons collided, and there was a deafening sound. This person retreated three steps, and Lin Xiu retreated five steps.

His hand holding the gun was a little numb. Although this person was only at the upper level of the mysterious rank, his true energy was far stronger than him, and he poured his true energy into the weapon. Without using special skills, Lin Xiu still couldn't do it just by relying on his physical strength. Way to beat him.

After the first blow, the second knife had already struck, and Lin Xiu's figure was like a ghost, which made him cut nothing.

During this period of time, he often practiced marksmanship, simple martial arts, and he could fight this person back and forth, but he couldn't hurt him. After a long time, his arm became numb from the shock.

If Lin Xiu didn't have the instructor and two secret agents behind him, Lin Xiu would kill this person like a chicken, but under the watchful eyes of everyone, most of his abilities could not be revealed, and he could only use the skills taught to him by the spirit voice.

The flesh-faced man was about to wield a big knife to split the hateful man who had killed his brother in half, when he suddenly felt his legs go cold.

At some point, the ground suddenly froze, completely freezing his legs.

Although he was able to break free from the ice under his feet with a little stimulation of his true energy, the young man opposite did not give him time.

At the moment when the savage man was frozen, Lin Xiu shot out.

He has practiced this shot tens of thousands of times.

puff.

The spear pierced through this person's chest, and his heart was also pierced. Although he had already circulated his true energy to his chest, he still couldn't block the shot. This was Lin Xiu's strongest blow. So far he can The only thing that can be obtained is this gun.

The gun was neatly retracted, and another corpse fell to the ground.

Behind the tree, Teacher Bai showed a look of relief on his face. He was very satisfied with Lin Xiu's shot, which was enough to show that he had put in a lot of hard work in addition to his daily training.

However, the next moment, the smile on his face disappeared, his complexion changed, and he said sharply, "Lin Xiu be careful!"

At the same time, his whole body turned into an afterimage and rushed out from behind the tree.

In fact, without Teacher Bai's reminder, Lin Xiu also sensed a strong crisis.

He subconsciously scrambled to block it. There was nothing in front of him, but the spear seemed to hit something. A huge force came, and Lin Xiu's body retreated ten steps before barely stopping, almost falling off the cliff.

One step behind him, there is an abyss that cannot be seen at a glance.
