Northern River Sword

The night was filled with mist, and the waning moon was hidden in the clouds.

Qin Xiao sneaked into Songhe Bieyuan quietly, and the lights under the eaves in the distance shone through the mist, showing a little red light.Behind the bamboo forest is the entrance to the dungeon, and there are two disciples guarding the door.Qin Xiao quickly approached a person from behind, punched him in the back of the head, and knocked him unconscious.A person next to him was about to shout, but was also knocked unconscious.

Qin Xiao gently put the person on the ground and walked into the dungeon.There were three more people on duty in the dungeon. It was freezing cold, and the three of them were sitting around the table drinking together.The smell of wine was strong, and Qin Xiao could tell that it was a burning knife sold in ordinary wine shops, and a large jar could be bought for ten cents.The wine is not expensive, but it is choking and spicy, and it is like a ball of fire in the throat, which makes people feel hot all over.

Qin Xiao stood in the shadow at the corner and waited for the three of them to drink down the wine in their bowls before coming out.The three of them became alert immediately, picked up their weapons and stood up unsteadily.Qin Xiao reacted faster than them, and quickly punched the three of them unconscious.

Qin Xiao tapped the acupoints of the three of them, stuffed their mouths with numbness, and said softly: "I'm sorry. I'm going to kill Qiu Guangcheng, so I can only wrong you. I let him go last time. It won't work after all. He is the murderer who killed my father, if mother wants him to die, he must die."

Qin Xiao walked into the depths of the corridor and found the cell where Qiu Guangcheng was being held.It was pitch black in the cell, and the firelight in the corridor cast shadows of a figure.

The man with disheveled hair turned his back, motionless, and seemed to be sleeping.Qin Xiao raised his arm, pointed the sleeve arrow at his back, and said in a low voice: "Sleep well, you won't be in pain soon."

He pressed the spring, and the sleeve arrow flew out rustlingly.Hearing the sound, the man was startled suddenly, turned over, and the sleeve arrows snapped and nailed to the ground.The man yelled: "Who is it? It's the middle of the night, and you don't let people sleep!"

A large net suddenly fell from the top of the corridor, Qin Xiao was caught off guard and was covered under it.There are bells on the net, tinkling non-stop, and the more you struggle, the tighter the entanglement becomes.The people in the cell were also taken aback, sat up and walked to the front, blankly asked: "What's going on? Who are you? Are you not with them?"

Qin Xiao struggled desperately in the net, Su Yi leaned on the railing to look out, Qin Xiao raised his head, and the two met face to face.The silver mask on Qin Xiao's face was very conspicuous, Su Yi lost his voice: "You...you are Qin Xiao?"

Qin Xiao looked at him, and suddenly stopped struggling, as if looking at something rare, staring at him intently.Su Yi touched his face subconsciously, and said, "What are you looking at?"

Qin Xiao said: "I've seen you before, you are from the beggar gang. Why are you here?"

Su Yi had a strange feeling towards him, even though he was almost killed by him just now, he couldn't hate him, and was even a little worried about him.Su Yi said: "You can't protect yourself now, so I don't care what I do!"

The sound of footsteps coming from outside came like a tide, He Timing heard the bell, and rushed in quickly with people.Everyone surrounded Qin Xiao.Qin Xiao thought to herself: "No wonder I got it so easily. It turned out to be a trap. They guessed that I was going to kill Qiu Guangcheng, so they planned it long ago."

He Timing strolled forward, raised the net, and said with a smile: "Qiu Guangguo is indeed the best bait to catch you. I knew you would come sooner or later, but I thought you would be more patient. Let me wait for a while. I didn't expect you to be caught so soon."

Qin Xiao said: "I'm useless, and it's useless for you to catch me."

He Diming said: "Who said it's useless. Now everyone in the world hates your name and gnashes their teeth. You said that if I summoned everyone to cut you up in public, wouldn't it be good for the people to eliminate harm?"

Su Yi patted the railing, and said loudly: "Hey, boy surnamed He, both of you father and son are not very good people. In my opinion, it's best to cut your father first, and then cut yourself. Clap your hands!"

He Timing frowned and said, "Tell him to shut up."

Someone stabbed Su Yi with a knife and gun through the railing. Su Yi hid behind the railing, taking advantage of the inconvenience of others to get in, and cursed even more proudly: "He Diming, you son of a bitch, you bastard, you are not like your father!" Good thing, in my dreams, I curse you father and son with sores on your heads and pus on your feet, and your body stinks, ouch, it stinks, it stinks!"

Someone waved a pine oil torch in front of the prison door, threatening: "Stinky boy, if you dare to talk nonsense, be careful that we will burn you into coke!"

There are straws everywhere in the prison. Su Yi has been tortured by He Diming these days and has been beaten a lot. Knowing that they are cruel and cruel, they will do what they say.Seeing the flames raging now, I was a little scared.He thought to himself: "Your master will not kill Lao Tzu for a day until he finds out the whereabouts of Shaoyang's sword art. However, if you offend them and cut off a few fingers of me, then you will suffer a lot... A hero does not suffer from immediate losses , let’s say a few words less.”

He Diming said: "I know you are good at martial arts. Is there any Shaoyang swordsmanship among the swordsmanship that your father left you?"

Qin Xiao sneered and said, "The Shaoyang Sword Manual was snatched away by you back then, and you still want it from me?"

He Diming said: "You tell the truth, I can still consider letting you go, otherwise I will be cut into pieces."

Su Yi hid in the corner of the wall and said loudly: "Boy surnamed Qin, you've heard me very well. The tortoise father and son were crazy about the Shaoyang sword manual. In order to find this sword manual, many families were destroyed. First, Qiu Guangcheng, then My master even arrested me for torture and torture, and now he has set a trap for you. You don’t know that Laoshizi’s swordsmanship is the best, if you tell them, you will definitely die!”

Someone said angrily: "Little beggar, who taught you how to speak! Shut your mouth!"

He Timing gave him some instructions.The man went outside and brought two buckets of ice water, and poured them on Su Yi's head and face.Su Yi had nowhere to hide, and was covered with water all over his body, his face was livid from the cold, and his teeth were chattering.

He Timing said to Qin Xiao: "Let's make a deal, I know you want to kill Qiu Guangcheng. I'll give you Qiu Guang, and you give me the Shaoyang Sword Manual, how about it?"

Qin Xiao said coldly: "I'm not interested in Qiu Guangcheng now, I just want your life."

He Timing said disapprovingly: "I hid Qiu Guangcheng in a secret place. If I don't tell you where he is, you will never be able to kill him for revenge. You have already let Xie Biao die in the hands of others, so let him go." Qiu Guangcheng, how do you explain to your mother?"

Qin Xiao raised her brows slightly, as if she was interested in what he said.He said: "There is some truth in what you said. Well, I can tell you, let me go first."

He Diming said: "Brother Qin is very skilled in martial arts, I dare not let you go. Please just say so."

Qin Xiao said calmly: "It's up to you if you don't let go. I'm tied up so numb that I can't remember anything. You don't worry, and I don't worry. It's fine if we just waste it like this."

He Timing had nothing to do, he raised his hand to seal several acupuncture points on Qin Xiao's chest, and then reached out to untie the big net on his body.Su Yi heard it clearly, and shouted loudly: "Hey, don't listen to him! Qiu Guangcheng escaped a long time ago, don't let anyone fool you!"

He Timing's face darkened, and he said, "Don't listen to him, that kid will talk nonsense."

Qin Xiao said coldly: "Who knows if what you said is true or not?"

He Timing became a little irritable, and frowned, "Then what do you want?"

Qin Xiao said: "Let me see Qiu Guangcheng first."

Su Yi laughed loudly, patted his thigh and said: "Well said, let's see if he can hand over someone! How could he hand it over? He still wants to find Qiu Guangcheng himself!"

He Timing ignored Su Yi's ridicule, looked indifferent, and said for a long time: "Yes. I will take you to see him."

Su Yi secretly said in his heart: "Qiu Guangcheng left like a dragon returning to the sea, how could he be caught by them again. That kid must be lying, I don't know how he will deal with Qin Xiao... Qin Xiao looks dumb, don't be caught It's good that they lied."

He Timing asked someone to put handcuffs on Qin Xiao's hands, and he was carried out.

Before he left, He Timing said: "Brother Su talked a lot tonight, and he seems to be in a good mood. You invite him to the torture room to serve him well, and see if he can reveal something."

Knowing that he was going to be beaten again, Su Yi immediately shuddered and cursed: "Crazy! You father and son are so insane! Even if you beat me to death, I still don't know anything!"

Before he had scolded enough, four people walked into the cell, and one kicked him to the ground.Ever since Qiu Guangcheng escaped, He Diming had gained a lot of wisdom and given Su Yi's diet the medicine to transform energy and disperse energy, so that he would not be able to play tricks and prevent prison escape from happening again.

Su Yi's dantian felt cold, he couldn't concentrate his strength, he was very angry, but he couldn't use any martial arts, it was like a tiger was being bullied by a dog.

The jailer sneered and said, "Save your energy, let's talk in the torture room if you have something to say." Then he dragged him out of the cell.

He Timing gave some instructions, and a carriage stopped outside the villa.He Timing asked someone to stuff Qin Xiao in, and got into the carriage himself, and there were seven or eight people riding horses to escort him outside.

He Diming said: "I'll take you to see Qiu Guangcheng."

Qin Xiao said, "Okay."

The conversation between the two was short and tasteless, clearly uninterested in each other, and the less communication the better.

The night was thick, and the carriage was traveling on a secluded path, constantly bumping.The night owl's cry came from afar, and He Timing didn't seem to like the shrill cry, so he shivered imperceptibly, and lifted the curtain of the car to look out as if to cover up.

Qin Xiao sat facing him, his acupoints were sealed, his hands were handcuffed, and he couldn't move his whole body.He Timing was always very nervous, the sword in his right hand was ready to be unsheathed at any time, as if just sitting with him was already facing great pressure.

Qin Xiao didn't pay attention to him, and closed her eyes as if no one else was there, wanting to sleep comfortably.He Timing breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't dare to relax the hand holding the sword.

Qin Xiao didn't believe that He Diming would take him to see Qiu Guangcheng. The little beggar's words were probably true. Qiu Guangcheng had already escaped, so He Diming tried his best to capture him, and wanted to ask him about the Shaoyang sword manual. whereabouts.

He Timing's trip this time is probably to send Qin Xiao to He Ruying for personal disposal.He Ruying is scheming, but he is not as easy to deal with as He Timing.Qin Xiao knew that if she fell into the hands of that old thief, she would suffer a lot and had to get out as soon as possible.

Qin Xiao secretly mobilized his internal energy to flush the acupoints. It would be best for He Timing to ignore him, lest he get distracted and go astray.

After the carriage drove for about half an hour, Qin Xiao felt light all over, breathed freely, and was able to move freely.He was secretly happy, and opened his eyes to look at He Diming.He Timing noticed it, and immediately looked at him vigilantly.

Qin Xiao smiled slightly and said, "Brother He seems a little afraid of me?"

He Timing was caught in his heart by what he said, so guilty, he immediately said: "Brother Qin, what are you talking about? You are my prisoner, you must be afraid of me!"

Qin Xiao smiled and said: "Since you are not afraid of me, why did you seal my acupoints and put on a pair of shackles? I can't move like this, it's extremely uncomfortable. Please do me a favor and untie my acupoints, okay?" ?”

He Timing said coldly: "Brother Qin, forgive me. You are so powerful in martial arts, I have to guard against you."

Qin Xiao said: "Okay then." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand and smashed the iron cuffs on He Timing's head.

He Timing didn't expect him to be able to move, so he was taken aback, raised his sword to block the door, and reluctantly received a move.Qin Xiao swung the iron cuffs again.The iron cuffs weighed more than ten kilograms, and they came whistling with the sound of the wind. If they were hit, they would immediately bleed.

The space in the carriage was small, and He Timing scrambled and scrambled, trying to avoid it in a panic.He shouted loudly: "Come on! Come on!" Qin Xiao hit the back of the head while speaking, and his eyes turned black for a while.

Qin Xiao strangled his throat with both arms, held him tightly to his chest, and shouted: "Stop!"

The carriage stopped, and Qin Xiao said loudly: "Be honest! Your master is in my hands, so don't move around!"

Everyone was on the verge of breaking out their swords, but after hearing this, they did not dare to act rashly.

Qin Xiao pushed He Timing out of the carriage, blocked him in front of him, stepped back slowly, and led a horse.

Someone wanted to take the opportunity to sneak attack, Qin Xiao reacted quickly, turned around and fired several sleeve arrows.The man's shoulder was pierced by a small arrow, and he fell to the ground and rolled in pain.Qin Xiao fired a burst of sleeve arrows in all directions, overwhelming everyone so that they dared not go forward.He took the opportunity to get on his horse, kicked He Timing away, and said loudly: "Brother He, thank you very much for today, we will meet later!"

Qin Xiao galloped away.He Diming was ashamed and humiliated.He said angrily: "The cooked duck can still fly! What are you doing in a daze, chase after me!"

Qin Xiao hit the horse and galloped, and heard the sound of chasing from far behind.He spat: "The ghosts linger!" Frowning, he jumped off the horse suddenly and plunged the dagger into the horse's butt.The horse neighed in pain, and galloped forward.

They couldn't see clearly in the middle of the night, when the chasing soldiers saw the horse going forward, they thought Qin Xiao was still on the horse, and they all shouted: "Don't run! Stop!" They chased even more urgently.

Qin Xiao had already got into the grove by the roadside, and under the cover of night, she flung off the pursuers.
