Northern River Sword

Qiu Guangcheng shuddered when he heard the sound of breathing, and said in his heart: "Someone discovered what happened tonight? No matter who it is, it must be silenced!" He turned around suddenly, and there was nothing behind him, and there was no one.

He turned around a few times in a row but saw no one, let alone a person, not even a shadow.As the wind whistled, Qiu Guangcheng shuddered and said to himself, "Don't let me kill too many people, and my suspicions will create dark ghosts."

He calmed down, and the sound of breathing appeared behind him again, looming and long.Qiu Guangcheng felt his hair stand on end, and said loudly: "Who, don't play tricks, get out!"

His manic voice echoed in the wilderness, but there was no answer.There were corpses all over the place, no matter how tough Qiu Guangcheng's nerves were, he couldn't bear such torture.He drew his sword and swung it wildly in the air, trying to take down unseen enemies.

Suddenly at this moment, he heard a burst of laughter.

It was the voice of a young man, with a happy smile and a nice voice.This kind of laughter usually reminds people of the scene of young people in fresh clothes and angry horses on the outing road, talking and laughing softly with the girl in their arms on the grassy field and sunny day.However, this kind of laughter appeared in the mass grave in the middle of the night, but it made people feel a chill suddenly.

Qiu Guangcheng suddenly turned around, and there was a person standing three feet away from him.It was empty there a moment ago, and the man seemed to come out of nowhere.He was wearing a silver mask, tall and tall, and his white clothes fluttered slightly in the night wind.

The man had a sword at his waist.That sword is the proud work of Weng Baiyu, the most famous swordsmith in the world, it is indestructible and extremely sharp.The body of the sword is pitch black, and the scabbard is inlaid with a brilliant sapphire, the color is as deep as the deep sea.

That sword was deeply seared in Qiu Guangcheng's mind more than ten years ago, and he could recognize it at a glance no matter what time it was.

That was Meng Shuhe's Beihe sword.

Qiu Guangcheng's right shoulder was aching, and cold sweat dripped from his forehead.He realized that the person in front of him was the murderer of Hu Tianxing, and also the person who assassinated Xue Hongliao last night.He had just dealt with Xie Biao wholeheartedly, but he didn't expect that the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole were behind him, and let this person take the opportunity to enter.

The man sneered and said, "Qiu Guangcheng, just now you and Xie Biao made me watch a good show. It turns out that this is the face of you righteous people."

Qiu Guangcheng clenched the long sword in his hand, and said, "Meng Shuhe's wife and son have long since died. Who are you and why do you stand up for him?"

The man said coldly: "Who am I, you will naturally know after death, just take your life!"

The man's movement was light and erratic, and he was beside Qiu Guangcheng in a flash.The North River sword came out of its sheath, and stabbed at Qiu Guangcheng's throat suddenly.Qiu Guangcheng shrank back quickly, the man kicked his foot and chased after him.After receiving dozens of swords from him, Qiu Guangcheng felt that this person's swordsmanship was fierce and vicious, with thousands of changes, his brilliance was not inferior to Shaoyang's swordsmanship.

Qiu Guangcheng fought the man with all his strength, his shoulder hurt more and more, and he felt that he was gradually losing.He thought to himself: "This man is not very old, but he has such an accomplishment in swordsmanship, it is simply amazing."

Within a few strokes, Qiu Guangcheng was stabbed in the lower abdomen by the man, and if he went deeper, he would be disembowelled.He broke out in a cold sweat, and said in his heart: "I have practiced Shaoyang swordsmanship for more than ten years, but I am no match for this kid. If my right arm is not injured, I am afraid it will be difficult to defeat him... Maybe I will use some tricks , can't die in his hands!"

Ever since he learned the news of Hu Tianxing's death, he became vigilant in his heart, lest that person would seek revenge on him next.There is a mechanism hidden in his sleeve, once activated, poison-enhanced silver needles will shoot out all over the sky, as long as a little bit of skin is scratched, it will be difficult to survive.

Relying on his status, he easily refused to use this hidden weapon, and now that his life was in danger, he had no choice but to resort to despicable tricks.

The man's sword was as bright as lightning, stabbing towards Qiu Guangcheng's chest and abdomen.Qiu Guangcheng used a move in Shaoyang swordsmanship to break the sky, and swung his long sword to dissolve several killer moves in the man's swordsmanship.The man was forced to take half a step back, and Qiu Guangcheng took the opportunity to shut him down.There was a rustling sound, and a silver needle shot out from his right sleeve.

The man was startled suddenly, and hurriedly dodged to avoid it.Qiu Guangcheng shot out the silver needle hidden in his left sleeve again, the man grunted, as if he had been hit by the needle.Qiu Guangcheng was overjoyed, he didn't dare to fight, he turned around and ran away.

He fled for several miles, only the whistling of the wind could be heard, and when he turned his head and saw that the man had not caught up, he gradually breathed a sigh of relief, and said to himself: "It's a fluke, a fluke! Thanks to God for protecting my life, maybe the silver needle will catch up with me at this moment." I got rid of that thief. Xie Biao and his people died in the mass grave, and no one will embarrass my Qiu family from now on!"

Thinking of this, Qiu Guangcheng's eyes suddenly brightened, and he thought, "If someone sees their corpses, they will definitely think that the Xie family has been singled out, and they have been targeted by that person, and they ambushed the Xie family members at the mass grave at night. Let's do it, no one can get a bargain, and we died together in the mass grave, so no one will suspect me... This is a blessing in disguise, a great good thing!" He thought more and more It was proud, and couldn't help laughing.

Not far away, Qiujiazhuang was still sleeping in the night, completely unaware of the thrilling events that had just happened.

Qiu Guangcheng climbed over the wall and entered Qiujiazhuang. The lanterns in the yard were flickering, and the sound of people running and talking could be heard from time to time. The patrolling sentry had already found signs of an attack.Qiu Guangcheng avoided the light and dark sentries in the villa and sneaked back to the study.He quickly applied medicine to bandage the wound, and just as he stuffed the bloody clothes under the bed, he heard Xue Hongliao lead someone to the courtyard and said loudly: "Master Qiu, are you okay?"

Qiu Guangcheng opened the door with his clothes on, as if he was still sleepy.Seeing that he was safe and sound, Xue Hongliu breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "It's good that Master Qiu is fine. The brothers who were patrolling just now found that seven or eight secret sentries nearby have been knocked down. Everyone is afraid that the assassin will find Master Qiu." , quickly come to visit. Did you hear anything just now?"

Qiu Guangcheng yawned and said apologetically, "There have been a lot of things in the villa these past few days. I didn't sleep well last night. I lit a burnt of tranquilizing incense tonight, and my sleep was deeper than usual. I just heard someone walking around and calling me. wake up."

He walked outside the courtyard and was shocked to see several secret whistles fell on the ground. He said, "These people have all been beaten unconscious. It seems that the assassin has already come, but why did they leave without making a move?"

Xue Hongliao said: "No one in the villa was injured, it should be the assassin who came in to kill. He saw that the defense of the villa was heavily guarded tonight and it was difficult to strike, so he ran away halfway."

Xue Hongliao pinched one of the people, put his right hand against the back of his heart, and sent a burst of true energy over.The man let out a breath and woke up.Qiu Guangcheng asked: "What's going on, someone broke in?"

The man remembered what happened before he passed out, so he shuddered, and said: "A man in black broke in, like a whirlwind, moving very fast, and I was knocked unconscious by him before I could make a sound."

Xue Hongliao said: "Have you seen what he looks like?"

The man said: "He covers his face, so you can't see his face, but his figure is that of a man, it's hard to tell his age."

Seeing that he couldn't find any useful information, Xue Hongliao stood up and said, "The inspecting brother found out about this not long ago, so the thief would not be able to escape very far. We can't always let him lead the way, let's go together in Qiujiazhuang Search nearby, and dig three feet to find him!"
