Clear Turbulence Sword
Chapter 7
Murong Yuan rested for a day, guessing that there must be something strange in Chenjiazhuang, so at Xu time, he went to explore the camp again.There are many more guards inside and outside Chenjiazhuang, especially around Chen Jingze's room, there are about 20 guards with knives.Murong Yuan thought to himself, no matter what, breaking in by force is not an option, and the only way to get into Chen Jingze's room is to lure these guards away.
While thinking about a good plan, the butler hurriedly ran to Chen Jingze's room and knocked on the door, "Master! Something broke in." Murong Yuan looked around by the light of the torch in the village, and there was nothing special thing.
After a while, Chen Jingze came out of the room. It seemed that he had already fallen asleep, and his clothes were a little disheveled.
"That kid Murong Yuan came to the door again." Chen Jingze asked.
The butler panicked, "No, it seems that some kind of beast has bitten a big hole in the corner door, and the old man who was doing the watch was also bitten to death!"
Chen Jingze thought to himself, ever since he lived here, he rarely saw any beasts dare to go into crowded places.And there are torches lit everywhere, no matter what kind of animal is afraid of the fire, they dare not come easily.Maybe it was a very hungry wolf that went crazy. There was really nothing to eat, so he bravely broke in.
Chen Jingze wrapped his clothes, it was freezing outside, far less comfortable than being in bed.
"Come on, take me to see it."
The steward led Chen Jingze to the corner gate on the northwest side of Zhuangzi, Murong Yuan also went around curiously, and hid himself in a big willow tree outside the gate.
There was a pool of red blood dripping on the snow-white ground, and an old man was lying in the pool of blood. The lantern in his hand fell to the ground and was burned by the candle.Chen Jingze ordered someone to turn the old man over, and saw that the wound was on the old man's throat, and he was indeed bitten by something.A large piece of meat from the old man's chest was also eaten. It seems that it was indeed done by a wild beast.
"Take a few people and look around with the thing. No matter what beast you see, kill it immediately." Chen Jingze ordered.
The housekeeper said "Here", and led the people to search around.
Murong Yuan had an idea and thought of a good way to sneak into Chen's Village.After Chen Jingze and the butler left, Murong Yuan got down from the tree.A homicide just happened by the corner gate, the guards in the village were afraid of getting into trouble, so they all stayed away, only two or three guards stood nearby.Murong Yuan deliberately knocked on the corner door with his hand, which really attracted the attention of the three guards.
The three guards took out their weapons and walked cautiously towards the corner door.Murong Yuan judged the distance between himself and them from the footsteps of the three people. When the three people were about ten steps away from Murong Yuan, Murong Yuan preemptively rushed out from behind the corner gate.Before the three guards had time to see clearly, they felt their eyes go dark and passed out.
There happened to be a woodshed next to the corner door, Murong Yuan dragged the three of them into it.He took a look at the figures of the three men, chose one who was similar to himself, took off the man's clothes and changed it for himself, then left the firewood room openly, following the servants who were looking for wild animals.
Under the leadership of the housekeeper, those servants only looked for traces of wild animals in the corners of the manor, but they didn't find that one more person came out for no reason.Murong Yuan didn't make a sound, and imitated them holding up a torch to shine eastward and westward, but he didn't find any suspicious signs.
Several people searched Zhuangzi all over, and Murong Yuan also found out the layout of Zhuangzi and the number of Zhuang Ding.There are three floors inside and outside the Chenjiazhuang. The outermost floor is the gatehouse and the surrounding wall. The middle floor is the lobby, living room and wing rooms. Chen Jingze's bedroom is in the center, and the servant's residence is next to it.The innermost layer is pavilions and pavilions, which are used for leisure and sightseeing, but in this extremely cold weather, I am afraid that I can only enjoy the snow and cook wine.The three floors outside here are connected by corridors, interlocking and closely connected.
The butler returned to Chen Jingze's room with a few servants. The butler reported through the door that no trace of the beast had been found.Chen Jingze felt that it was too cold outside, and he didn't bother to come out, so he sent off, "I'll look for it tomorrow, everyone go back and rest."
The butler waved his hands at the servants, and the servants went back to live by themselves.Murong Yuan was among them and was not noticed until now by a servant.The servant saw a strange face and felt curious, Murong Yuan smiled at him, and he smiled back, thinking he was a newcomer.
After several servants went back, Murong Yuan went back to the northwest corner gate, he refused to let the people in the village rest, this is a golden opportunity to enter Chen Jingze's room, Murong Yuan will never miss it.The three Zhuang Ding who were knocked out by him just now woke up, and the one whose clothes were changed was even more inexplicable. He didn't realize it until the two people next to him reminded him.The three of them suddenly realized that someone must have broken in, so they rushed to report to Chen Jingze.
When Murong Yuan saw the three of them leaving, he threw the torch into the firewood room. There was a crackling sound in the firewood room, and the fire burst into flames.Murong Yuan jumped up to the roof and easily slipped over to Chen Jingze's room.The three servants said in unison in front of Chen Jingze's door, "It's not good, owner, someone has sneaked in!"
Chen Jingze was planning to sleep peacefully, when he heard that someone had sneaked in, he couldn't help being furious! He put on his clothes, kicked open the door, and cursed loudly, "It's either a beast or an outsider, what use are you for!" Three None of the servants dared to speak out.At this time, someone shouted again, "The woodshed is on fire! Come and put out the fire!"
"Bastard!", Chen Jingze cursed, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like he was about to kill someone, making the servant tremble with fear.
"What are you still doing, go put out the fire!" Chen Jingze also followed the servants.
Murong Yuan saw that the opportunity had come, he removed a few tiles, then went down from the roof and entered Chen Jingze's room.Murong Yuan recalled the moment when he opened the secret room before, not only hidden weapons flew out, but also the bell rang loudly.Immediately searching around along the wall, I found an extremely slender copper wire.The copper wires stretched all the way to the eaves, where many bells were tied. Once the door of the secret room was opened, the copper wires would pull the bells and make a sound.Murong Yuan was quick to wit, and found a hairpin from beside Chen Jingze's bed.Murong Yuan pinched the copper wire with two fingers, then cut off the copper wire, then wrapped the section of copper wire connected to the bell around the hairpin, and finally fixed the hairpin into the wall, so that the bell would not be afraid Make a noise.And the section of copper wire connected to the door of the secret room lost its function.
Just like last time, Murong Yuan pulled the knife handle on the wall, and the door of the secret room opened.Sure enough, several hidden weapons flew out again, this time Murong Yuan was well prepared, he caught all the hidden weapons and threw them on the ground.Murong Yuan picked up a lighted candle from the table and stepped into the secret room. The two sides of the passage in the secret room are very narrow, just enough to accommodate one person.The further you go in, the bigger the space, Murong Yuan walked down the steps, feeling that the temperature inside is much higher than outside.
When he arrived at the place where the treasure was hidden in the secret room, Murong Yuan couldn't help but stare dumbfounded.I saw all kinds of emeralds, rare corals, piles of gold, etc. displayed in the showcases on both sides, which can be said to be incomparably rich.However, no one knows how many people killed these treasures and snatched them from others.Murong Yuan thought to himself that finding the treasure box was the most important thing, so he couldn't delay, so he searched everywhere.
The treasures in this secret room are arranged in an extremely orderly manner and are easy to find.Murong Yuan looked around for a week, and found the treasure box on the jade table in front of a showcase.Murong Yuan was overjoyed and hurried forward to get it.Just as his hand touched the treasure box, he suddenly heard something growl. Murong Yuan was about to see what it was, when suddenly an unknown animal jumped out from behind the display case, and grabbed Murong Yuan's hand with one paw. The candle in Yuan's hand fell to the ground and went out all at once.
Murong Yuan couldn't see the things in the room clearly, so he grabbed the thing again, and Murong Yuan's hands were scratched several times.Immediately afterwards, another thing roared and jumped out from nowhere, and the two things rushed towards Murong Yuan.Murong Yuan couldn't see the surroundings clearly, he could only hear the wind, knowing something was wrong, so he groped outside the secret room based on his memory.
When his feet reached the steps, Murong Yuan quickened his speed, and he could feel the two things almost touching his back.After leaving the secret room, Murong Yuan didn't have time to close the door of the secret room, so he knocked open Chen Jingze's door and rushed out.As soon as he left the house, Murong Yuan yelled inwardly, "No." Chen Jingze was indeed an old fox, and it was assumed that someone used a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain and pretended to put out the fire, but in fact he took a group of people around the firewood house for a while. Turn back, want to come and get the stolen goods.
Seeing Murong Yuan coming out of the room, Chen Jingze ordered people to surround him.Just when he was about to make a move against Murong Yuan, he suddenly saw two unknown things running out of the room, and when he saw the servant, he began to bite.Murong Yuan thought that these two things were deliberately left by Chen Jingze in the secret room to guard the baby, but judging from Chen Jingze's expression, it seemed that he didn't know what these two things were.
No one present knew what these two things were. From the outside, these two things looked similar to humans, but with extremely long hair on their heads, they crawled on all fours, and mainly attacked by biting their teeth.The butler was unfortunately bitten by a monster's arm, and he couldn't shake it off no matter how hard he tried.The butler is tall and strong, and it takes two or three ordinary people to move him. However, when confronted with this thing, the butler is no match at all. The thing bit a bloody hole and came out.
None of the servants had encountered such a thing before. Seeing that the housekeeper was dead, they ran away, thinking that if they did not escape, they would die too.Chen Jingze was so frightened that he couldn't move. A thought flashed in his mind, thinking that these two things might be the legendary "snowman".These two things just broke in through the corner door. After eating the old man who had beaten him, he wanted to find a place to rest, but somehow found his way into Chen Jingze's secret room.It turned out that the secret room was connected with a secret passage, which Chen Jingze planned to use to escape in times of crisis.Because the secret passage was much warmer than the outside, somehow these two things discovered it and dug it in from the frozen soil.
Several escaped servants bumped into Chen Jingze, and Chen Jingze regained his composure. Seeing a "snowman" rushing towards him, he turned around and ran for his life.Because of being overly frightened, Chen Jingze forgot that he knew martial arts, and the speed under his feet was extremely slow.Seeing that the "snowman" was about to overtake him, Chen Jingze grabbed a torch from the servant beside him, turned around and threw it at the monster.Chen Jingze didn't know how much effort he had exerted, the torch flew over the "Snowman" head while spinning, "Snowman" was really afraid of fire, so he stopped chasing immediately.The torch was impartial, and Chen Jingze just threw it on the window of his own house. The window was pasted with paper, and it caught fire immediately.
The two "snowmen" started to attack the servants who were alone and had no torches.Chen Jingze ran to the corner, and seeing that "Snowman" hadn't followed, he finally recovered his breath.However, just as he regained his composure, he found that his house was surrounded by fire.Thinking that the treasure in the secret room might be engulfed by the fire, Chen Jingze rushed to his house, trying to call for firefighters, but the servants were all running for their lives.Originally, in this extremely cold weather, there was no running water, it was all ice, and the fire over the firewood house had not been extinguished.The servants just covered it with quilts and buried it with snow, so it was extremely difficult to put out the fire.Seeing that no one responded, Chen Jingze rushed in through the burning door frame regardless of his own safety.Seeing that the tables, chairs and beds in the room were all on fire, Chen Jingze covered his mouth and nose and rushed into the secret room.Thick smoke was everywhere in the secret room, choking him so much that he couldn't open his eyes.
The fire in the house was so great that it illuminated the secret room brightly.Chen Jingze looked at his beloved treasures, and wanted to take away all of them, but he knew that it was impossible to remove them all, so he wanted to pick the most expensive one.But after picking and picking, he felt that everything was very precious, and he was reluctant to throw away any one.The smoke in the secret room became thicker. If you didn't get out quickly, you would be burned to death even if you were not smoked to death.After all, this secret room was originally connected to the house, and it was also made of wood, so it was easy to burn along with it.
Chen Jingze hugged a five-meter-high red coral in his left hand, and took out a pearl necklace in his right hand. Regardless of the worries about his mouth and nose, he insisted on holding his breath and walked to the secret room.As soon as he reached the door of the secret room, he staggered and threw the red coral to the ground, breaking it into several pieces.Chen Jingze's heart ached for a while, but he couldn't take care of his depression. The smoke and fire had already made him dying.Just as he was about to struggle to get up, a section of the burned-out beam fell and hit his neck, and Chen Jingze fainted on the spot.The beam was still burning, and Chen Jingze's clothes quickly caught fire, but he lost consciousness, and his whole body was quickly engulfed by the fire.
Inside Zhuangzi, the two "snowmen" are still killing. Murong Yuan saw that there were monsters on one side and fire on the other, and he didn't know what to do.Thinking that the treasure box is not afraid of fire, he made up his mind to get rid of those two "snowmen", lest these two guys go to the town and hurt innocent people in the future.Seeing a "snowman" biting a dead servant, Murong Yuan quietly sneaked behind it and pierced it with a sword! Unexpectedly, not only did the monster not die, but it became mad and rushed forward. Withdrawing the sword from his body, he turned around and rushed towards Murong Yuan.
Murong Yuan didn't expect this kind of situation, but with the sword in his hand, he didn't panic, and he could clearly see the direction of the "snowman" attacking at this time.This "snowman" does not have fixed moves and shooting directions like ordinary martial arts masters, and his attacks are all based on a madness.However, what surprised Murong Yuan was that these two "snowmen" seemed to have hidden internal power, but he didn't know how to use it. When the "Snowman" attacked the servant, although he used all four limbs, he could still see the shadow of martial arts moves.
Before he could think about it, the "snowman" had jumped to Murong Yuan's feet, stretched out his claws and scratched.Murong Yuan retreated hastily, "Snowman" caught up with another claw, Murong Yuan blocked it with his sword. "Snowman" scratched his claws on the blade, and blood flowed instantly.However, "Snowman" didn't seem to care at all, and still charged at Murong Yuan with all his strength.
Murong Yuan thought to himself, such dodging is not a long-term solution, so he thought about ways to control the enemy.The "Snowman" was bleeding from his chest, he took a handful of it and put it into his mouth, the "Snowman" who drank the blood seemed to regain some vitality immediately, screamed wildly and scratched at Murong Yuan again.
Murong Yuan didn't back down either, with a wave of his long sword, Qi Qi cut off the "Snowman"'s wrist, and a big hand with long nails fell to the ground.This hand looks like an ordinary person's hand, but the sharp long nails make it easy to associate it with a beast.
After the hand was severed, "Snowman" was so angry that he stood up on two legs, roaring and leaping towards Murong Yuan.Murong Yuan didn't dodge, but just pushed the sword forward, the top of "Snowman" was facing the sword point, only heard a pop, "Snowman"'s head was pierced by the sword. "Snowman" fell from the air and twisted a few times on the ground before he died.
This "snowman" just died, and the other one seemed to sense it, stopped attacking the servant, and scratched his limbs on the snow, obviously trying to rush over with force, but his feet were unstable, and he fell on the ground.
Murong Yuan saw a good opportunity, he walked behind the "snowman" a few steps, and wanted to attack from behind.The "Snowman" didn't show any weakness, turned around, opened two sharp claws and grabbed Murong Yuan.Murong Yuan dodged backwards, walked around behind the "snowman" in a few steps, and quickly slashed his sword on its back. "Snowman" let out a low growl, then turned around and rushed towards Murong Yuan.Murong Yuan dodges, then circles behind "Snowman", raises his hand and strikes with the sword again.After a few rounds, more than a dozen cuts were cut behind the "Snowman", and blood flowed out.
With the loss of physical strength and blood, the movements of "Snowman" became slower and slower. Although it was still fierce and abnormal, it seemed powerless.Murong Yuan thought it was time to end it, and pointed the long sword at the "snowman", and the "snowman" stared at the long sword, also wanting to launch a fatal blow.Murong Yuan suddenly started, and stabbed forward suddenly, the "snowman" hurriedly retreated, then bounced out with energy, and went straight to Murong Yuan's middle gate.
Murong Yuan's move was false, after a false stab, he withdrew his sword, and his body moved aside to block it.When the "Snowman" rushed over, Murong Yuan saw the timing, raised his sword and fell, beheading the "Snowman". The "Snowman" lost his head, but his body still moved a few times, and his limbs fluttered for a while before making a sound.The head rolled to the side, covered with snow stains, and it was impossible to see what it looked like.
After the dust settled, Murong Yuan sheathed his long sword, turned his head and looked at the village, the whole Chenjiazhuang was already in flames.Murong Yuan once saw Chen Jingze break into the burning house with his own eyes, guessing that he must have escaped alive, he couldn't help but let out a sigh.People die for money, birds die for food, and the saying is true.
Murong Yuan stood in the snow with his arms folded, watching the soaring flames turn half of the sky red.Everything that could be burned in Zhuangzi was burned, and the fire gradually became smaller, until finally only the low flames were left struggling to burn.Murong Yuan searched around by stepping on the embers, he saw a charred skeleton, it was Chen Jingze.He committed countless evils during his lifetime, and tried his best to occupy all the treasures in the world, but in the end there was nothing.All his jade and emeralds were burned by the fire, and the treasures that were originally priceless became worthless.
Finally, Murong Yuan found the treasure box from a pile of burnt pearls, but to his surprise, the treasure box was also burnt out.Murong Yuan heard from Murong Lie since he was a child that this treasure box was forged with nine-day black iron and sky fire, no one can open it except with two keys, even if it is burned with fire, it cannot be damaged.However, half of this treasure box was burned under the fire, and the remaining half was also black and full of cracks.
Since it is impossible for the treasure box to be burned, it can only show that this so-called treasure box is not a real treasure box, it is just a fake.Murong Yuan thought he had found the treasure box, but unexpectedly, he was so happy, and felt very disappointed.Where is the real treasure box? Murong Yuan asked himself. "The bloodthirsty double thieves!" Murong Yuan suddenly thought, "Since this is not a real treasure box, then the treasure box must still be in the hands of the bloodthirsty double thieves! As long as you find the double thieves, you can find the treasure box."Murong Yuan warned himself that as long as there are clues, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he cannot give up.
The Chen Family Manor has been destroyed, and there is one less place to hide the filth in the martial arts world, and the villagers have all gone to find their own way of life.Murong Yuan thought of the lack of supplies in this barren land in the northwest, the two thieves would not stay here for long, and they would definitely go to rich places to commit crimes again.So he decided to return to the Central Plains and inquire about the news of the double thieves along the way.
Not long after Murong Yuan left Chenjiazhuang, there was a rustling sound on the snow where he stood.The masked woman whom I ran into earlier came from the nearby forest, she quietly looked at the direction Murong Yuan was leaving in, and said nothing.Her injuries are still serious, and even her breathing feels heavy.The masked woman slowly lifted her veil, the moonlight curved her cheeks into a smooth arc, and there seemed to be some tenderness in her pair of bright eyes, but was immediately covered by the surging wind and snow, and the clear Imply calm.She looked at the Chen family village that had been reduced to ashes, and followed Murong Yuan slightly staggeringly.
While thinking about a good plan, the butler hurriedly ran to Chen Jingze's room and knocked on the door, "Master! Something broke in." Murong Yuan looked around by the light of the torch in the village, and there was nothing special thing.
After a while, Chen Jingze came out of the room. It seemed that he had already fallen asleep, and his clothes were a little disheveled.
"That kid Murong Yuan came to the door again." Chen Jingze asked.
The butler panicked, "No, it seems that some kind of beast has bitten a big hole in the corner door, and the old man who was doing the watch was also bitten to death!"
Chen Jingze thought to himself, ever since he lived here, he rarely saw any beasts dare to go into crowded places.And there are torches lit everywhere, no matter what kind of animal is afraid of the fire, they dare not come easily.Maybe it was a very hungry wolf that went crazy. There was really nothing to eat, so he bravely broke in.
Chen Jingze wrapped his clothes, it was freezing outside, far less comfortable than being in bed.
"Come on, take me to see it."
The steward led Chen Jingze to the corner gate on the northwest side of Zhuangzi, Murong Yuan also went around curiously, and hid himself in a big willow tree outside the gate.
There was a pool of red blood dripping on the snow-white ground, and an old man was lying in the pool of blood. The lantern in his hand fell to the ground and was burned by the candle.Chen Jingze ordered someone to turn the old man over, and saw that the wound was on the old man's throat, and he was indeed bitten by something.A large piece of meat from the old man's chest was also eaten. It seems that it was indeed done by a wild beast.
"Take a few people and look around with the thing. No matter what beast you see, kill it immediately." Chen Jingze ordered.
The housekeeper said "Here", and led the people to search around.

The window was pasted with paper, and it caught fire immediately.
The two "snowmen" started to attack the servants who were alone and had no torches.Chen Jingze ran to the corner, and seeing that "Snowman" hadn't followed, he finally recovered his breath.However, just as he regained his composure, he found that his house was surrounded by fire.Thinking that the treasure in the secret room might be engulfed by the fire, Chen Jingze rushed to his house, trying to call for firefighters, but the servants were all running for their lives.Originally, in this extremely cold weather, there was no running water, it was all ice, and the fire over the firewood house had not been extinguished.The servants just covered it with quilts and buried it with snow, so it was extremely difficult to put out the fire.Seeing that no one responded, Chen Jingze rushed in through the burning door frame regardless of his own safety.Seeing that the tables, chairs and beds in the room were all on fire, Chen Jingze covered his mouth and nose and rushed into the secret room.Thick smoke was everywhere in the secret room, choking him so much that he couldn't open his eyes.
The fire in the house was so great that it illuminated the secret room brightly.Chen Jingze looked at his beloved treasures, and wanted to take away all of them, but he knew that it was impossible to remove them all, so he wanted to pick the most expensive one.But after picking and picking, he felt that everything was very precious, and he was reluctant to throw away any one.The smoke in the secret room became thicker. If you didn't get out quickly, you would be burned to death even if you were not smoked to death.After all, this secret room was originally connected to the house, and it was also made of wood, so it was easy to burn along with it.
Chen Jingze hugged a five-meter-high red coral in his left hand, and took out a pearl necklace in his right hand. Regardless of the worries about his mouth and nose, he insisted on holding his breath and walked to the secret room.As soon as he reached the door of the secret room, he staggered and threw the red coral to the ground, breaking it into several pieces.Chen Jingze's heart ached for a while, but he couldn't take care of his depression. The smoke and fire had already made him dying.Just as he was about to struggle to get up, a section of the burned-out beam fell and hit his neck, and Chen Jingze fainted on the spot.The beam was still burning, and Chen Jingze's clothes quickly caught fire, but he lost consciousness, and his whole body was quickly engulfed by the fire.
Inside Zhuangzi, the two "snowmen" are still killing. Murong Yuan saw that there were monsters on one side and fire on the other, and he didn't know what to do.Thinking that the treasure box is not afraid of fire, he made up his mind to get rid of those two "snowmen", lest these two guys go to the town and hurt innocent people in the future.Seeing a "snowman" biting a dead servant, Murong Yuan quietly sneaked behind it and pierced it with a sword! Unexpectedly, not only did the monster not die, but it became mad and rushed forward. Withdrawing the sword from his body, he turned around and rushed towards Murong Yuan.
Murong Yuan didn't expect this kind of situation, but with the sword in his hand, he didn't panic, and he could clearly see the direction of the "snowman" attacking at this time.This "snowman" does not have fixed moves and shooting directions like ordinary martial arts masters, and his attacks are all based on a madness.However, what surprised Murong Yuan was that these two "snowmen" seemed to have hidden internal power, but he didn't know how to use it. When the "Snowman" attacked the servant, although he used all four limbs, he could still see the shadow of martial arts moves.
Before he could think about it, the "snowman" had jumped to Murong Yuan's feet, stretched out his claws and scratched.Murong Yuan retreated hastily, "Snowman" caught up with another claw, Murong Yuan blocked it with his sword. "Snowman" scratched his claws on the blade, and blood flowed instantly.However, "Snowman" didn't seem to care at all, and still charged at Murong Yuan with all his strength.
Murong Yuan thought to himself, such dodging is not a long-term solution, so he thought about ways to control the enemy.The "Snowman" was bleeding from his chest, he took a handful of it and put it into his mouth, the "Snowman" who drank the blood seemed to regain some vitality immediately, screamed wildly and scratched at Murong Yuan again.
Murong Yuan didn't back down either, with a wave of his long sword, Qi Qi cut off the "Snowman"'s wrist, and a big hand with long nails fell to the ground.This hand looks like an ordinary person's hand, but the sharp long nails make it easy to associate it with a beast.
After the hand was severed, "Snowman" was so angry that he stood up on two legs, roaring and leaping towards Murong Yuan.Murong Yuan didn't dodge, but just pushed the sword forward, the top of "Snowman" was facing the sword point, only heard a pop, "Snowman"'s head was pierced by the sword. "Snowman" fell from the air and twisted a few times on the ground before he died.
This "snowman" just died, and the other one seemed to sense it, stopped attacking the servant, and scratched his limbs on the snow, obviously trying to rush over with force, but his feet were unstable, and he fell on the ground.
Murong Yuan saw a good opportunity, he walked behind the "snowman" a few steps, and wanted to attack from behind.The "Snowman" didn't show any weakness, turned around, opened two sharp claws and grabbed Murong Yuan.Murong Yuan dodged backwards, walked around behind the "snowman" in a few steps, and quickly slashed his sword on its back. "Snowman" let out a low growl, then turned around and rushed towards Murong Yuan.Murong Yuan dodges, then circles behind "Snowman", raises his hand and strikes with the sword again.After a few rounds, more than a dozen cuts were cut behind the "Snowman", and blood flowed out.
With the loss of physical strength and blood, the movements of "Snowman" became slower and slower. Although it was still fierce and abnormal, it seemed powerless.Murong Yuan thought it was time to end it, and pointed the long sword at the "snowman", and the "snowman" stared at the long sword, also wanting to launch a fatal blow.Murong Yuan suddenly started, and stabbed forward suddenly, the "snowman" hurriedly retreated, then bounced out with energy, and went straight to Murong Yuan's middle gate.
Murong Yuan's move was false, after a false stab, he withdrew his sword, and his body moved aside to block it.When the "Snowman" rushed over, Murong Yuan saw the timing, raised his sword and fell, beheading the "Snowman". The "Snowman" lost his head, but his body still moved a few times, and his limbs fluttered for a while before making a sound.The head rolled to the side, covered with snow stains, and it was impossible to see what it looked like.
After the dust settled, Murong Yuan sheathed his long sword, turned his head and looked at the village, the whole Chenjiazhuang was already in flames.Murong Yuan once saw Chen Jingze break into the burning house with his own eyes, guessing that he must have escaped alive, he couldn't help but let out a sigh.People die for money, birds die for food, and the saying is true.
Murong Yuan stood in the snow with his arms folded, watching the soaring flames turn half of the sky red.Everything that could be burned in Zhuangzi was burned, and the fire gradually became smaller, until finally only the low flames were left struggling to burn.Murong Yuan searched around by stepping on the embers, he saw a charred skeleton, it was Chen Jingze.He committed countless evils during his lifetime, and tried his best to occupy all the treasures in the world, but in the end there was nothing.All his jade and emeralds were burned by the fire, and the treasures that were originally priceless became worthless.
Finally, Murong Yuan found the treasure box from a pile of burnt pearls, but to his surprise, the treasure box was also burnt out.Murong Yuan heard from Murong Lie since he was a child that this treasure box was forged with nine-day black iron and sky fire, no one can open it except with two keys, even if it is burned with fire, it cannot be damaged.However, half of this treasure box was burned under the fire, and the remaining half was also black and full of cracks.
Since it is impossible for the treasure box to be burned, it can only show that this so-called treasure box is not a real treasure box, it is just a fake.Murong Yuan thought he had found the treasure box, but unexpectedly, he was so happy, and felt very disappointed.Where is the real treasure box? Murong Yuan asked himself. "The bloodthirsty double thieves!" Murong Yuan suddenly thought, "Since this is not a real treasure box, then the treasure box must still be in the hands of the bloodthirsty double thieves! As long as you find the double thieves, you can find the treasure box."Murong Yuan warned himself that as long as there are clues, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he cannot give up.
The Chen Family Manor has been destroyed, and there is one less place to hide the filth in the martial arts world, and the villagers have all gone to find their own way of life.Murong Yuan thought of the lack of supplies in this barren land in the northwest, the two thieves would not stay here for long, and they would definitely go to rich places to commit crimes again.So he decided to return to the Central Plains and inquire about the news of the double thieves along the way.
Not long after Murong Yuan left Chenjiazhuang, there was a rustling sound on the snow where he stood.The masked woman whom I ran into earlier came from the nearby forest, she quietly looked at the direction Murong Yuan was leaving in, and said nothing.Her injuries are still serious, and even her breathing feels heavy.The masked woman slowly lifted her veil, the moonlight curved her cheeks into a smooth arc, and there seemed to be some tenderness in her pair of bright eyes, but was immediately covered by the surging wind and snow, and the clear Imply calm.She looked at the Chen family village that had been reduced to ashes, and followed Murong Yuan slightly staggeringly.
