Sword Intent Lingqiu

"How could this happen..." After hearing the sad news that Liu Xiang covered his face, Chili took a long time to recover, and struggled to get up from the sick bed, with a dazed expression, "Now... what should I do!"

Even Liu Xiang, who was always laughing and laughing in women's clothing, also put away his hippie smile.One side of his delicate face was still swollen, and he looked ridiculous, but at this moment, no one could laugh, "The imperial capital is really suffering from internal and external troubles."

"So what happened this trip?" Luo Xing'er, who had been listening quietly for a long time, couldn't help but interjected at last.

"This matter...it's a long story." Pepper and Liu Xiang looked at each other, and after getting the latter's confirmation that "this person is trustworthy", they explained to the confused girl: "Do you know that Jinling Is there a red list in the city offering rewards?"

"I know, it is the well-known Jianghu vendetta list, which is controlled by the Shadow Guild. What has it to do with this matter?"

"Although this shadow guild is an underground transaction, since it is openly stationed in Jinling, it naturally receives our acquiescence. In addition to taking part of the remuneration and handing it over, there is also an agreement to provide us with information about the world. On the one hand, we allow them to operate , On the other hand, I will also help to take some difficult orders, so I have lived in peace for many years." Chili paused and clenched his fists, "You know, the young master himself is the number one in this world Shadow One!"

"So senior brother Yun leaves the imperial capital for errands from time to time, so he just accepted the list of the red list?" The girl in red was quite surprised, "You guys also kept it from me, so hard!"

"After all, it's about the secrets of the imperial capital. The fewer people who know the better, isn't it?" The man on the other side also spread his hands helplessly, "This time, although the distance is a bit far, with the young master's kung fu, it is foolproof. But...but..." As if recalling some tragic experience, I couldn't continue for a while.

"It was a group of dark fragrances that came out halfway, and ambushed the young master who was resting." Liu Xiang took the conversation, "I met Yu Gan just now, and he told me everything."

"Yes!" Pepper, who was full of frustration and had nowhere to vent, clenched and clenched his fists, and finally couldn't help punching himself hard.Ignoring the rupture of the wound on his leg, his face was full of regret, "It's because my cultivation base is too low, and I'm useless in a critical moment..."

"The other party obviously came prepared, I don't blame you..." Liu Xiang said a few words of comfort, and suddenly thought of something, "The key is, how did the young master's itinerary leak out this time?"

"Exactly. If this traitor is not caught, the imperial capital will always be facing an abyss." Luo Xing'er was also worried when she heard the words, "The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. The assassination of Senior Brother Yun is probably only the first step. There will be some action, you two must cheer up and clean up the mess."

"We haven't announced the news of the senior brother..., people are already in panic. I hate these scumbags, but they already look timid and cowering after a little bit of wind." Chili also said and straightened up indignantly , turned and bent down weakly, and sighed, "It's also our fault that we rely too much on him, but now... without the young master, there are many things that we can't do."

All three sighed silently, and the room fell into an unbearable silence.

Liu Xiang kept his head down, muttered for a long time, and finally opened his mouth with difficulty, "Actually... Maybe the young master can still save..."

Chili grabbed Liu Xiang's sleeve as if he had grasped some life-saving straw, and said in disbelief, "What do you mean!"

Luo Xing'er raised her head in amazement when she heard the words, "But the Xuming Pill lasts for more than three days, it's obviously hard to save the gods, what you say..."

A very struggling look appeared on Liu Xiang's face, and he hesitated for a long time.Chili stared at this guy's face, his mood fluctuated with his expression, and he almost wanted to get up and punch him on the right cheek again, "Say something quickly!"

"Have you ever heard of the forbidden technique?" Liu Xiang turned his head to look at his junior sister, and asked after a while.

Luo Xing'er's heart trembled when she heard the word "forbidden technique", as if she had guessed what the former was about to say next, "Ordinary Yunmeng disciples probably wouldn't know it, but we senior disciples have heard it a little bit. It is said that one is the technique of attracting dreams, and the other is that..."

"Resurrection."

As soon as these three words were uttered, a chill came out of nowhere in the room, making the three present tremble involuntarily.

"So that's how it is...the patriarch is here, there is still salvation!" Luo Xing'er immediately got up and wanted to go, "I'm going to beg the patriarch right now!"

"Wait a minute, since it's a forbidden technique, why would the patriarch use it so easily?" Pepper was ecstatic, but also a little worried.

Luo Xing'er stopped walking when she heard the words, and couldn't help but smiled wryly, "I'm not as familiar with the affairs of the imperial capital as you are, but do you know why Patriarch Come and Go deliberately visited the imperial capital this time? It was for Yunmeng's sake." ..." Before she finished speaking, the girl in red saw Chili's blank face, and Liu Xiang still shook her head thoughtfully, "Forget it, wait for Senior Brother Yun to wake up and ask yourself. As Yun It's really inconvenient for Disciple Meng to say more. I can only say that the Patriarch may not want to see Senior Brother Yun have an accident at this time even more than the Emperor. Even if it is a forbidden technique, I am [-]% sure of convincing her, you just wait."

After finishing speaking, Luo Xing'er flicked her sleeves and hurriedly went to find the patriarch.The two guys with big eyes and small eyes were left behind, looking at each other in the ward that still smelled of blood and herbs.

……

Just as Luo Xing'er was having a secret conversation late at night with the patriarch who had come and gone, Qingqing in the Yanlai Inn was packing her bags, wanting to return to the dark fragrance.Ever since I learned of the big change in the imperial capital yesterday, I knew that my friend might not have time to take care of me for a while.There are many rumors in the market, and many former enemies of the imperial capital are also ready to move.At this time of great turmoil in the world, there is no news from within the sect, so it is time to go back and have a look.

Just as the girl in purple was carrying her burden, leading the horse, and heading towards the city gate, for some reason, she passed by Liangcheng Bookshop again.Today's book shop is far less lively than it was when we came here, or in other words, almost the entire Jinling City is much deserted.The fat owner of the bakery is also missing.Although the bookshop seemed deserted, it just gave Qingqing a chance to see what the legendary owner of the bookshop looked like.

The well-informed and bold boss, half-closed his eyes, was lazily sitting at the door with the cat in his arms.Qingqing just glanced at it but was shocked: Although this person is dressed in men's clothing, she can tell at a glance that she is a young woman.And beside the bamboo stool was an invisible pole, in Qingqing's eyes, it was the light pole of disciple Yunmeng, but the palace lantern disappeared for a while.

In the dark place of the store, there was a girl in the uniform of a Huashan student sitting vaguely, she was probably the "spicy proprietress" in the previous rumors.What's even more amazing is that there are extremely faint runes circulating outside the small tile house. After staring carefully for a long time, Qingqing finally sees that this is the Nine Palaces Tianxuan Formation inside the Wudang Gate.Just when he was amazed, he heard a coquettish shout from the store, "San San!" A little brother with a sword box on his back rushed out of the door. Seeing the familiar footwork, it was obviously another Wudang disciple.

A small bookstore has come here unexpectedly.With the addition of a dark fragrance, isn't it the gathering of the five sects?

Without the girls who watched and scrambled to line up that day, there are still many passers-by rushing by in front of the book shop, dropping a few taels of silver into the cash register box, and taking a booklet from the booth.No words were needed during the period, as if a wonderful tacit understanding had been reached.Qingqing also stepped forward curiously, glanced at the indifferent boss, and picked up a booklet to read.

"Mr. Egret!" Only after turning the page, Qingqing couldn't help but let out a soft cry.Unexpectedly, all kinds of news about this mysterious person were sold publicly in Jinling.This person is the best at inquiring about information, almost to the point of being omniscient and omniscient.He has never directly appeared in the arena, so no one knows whether he is a man or a woman, old or young, and how much kung fu he has.It's not that no one tried to dig out the identity of this person in turn, but they all ended in failure.He only uses an egret with spreading wings as his mark, and the news of this mark can almost be judged to be true, so people in the world call him "Lord Egret".

And in Qingqing's hand, on the pamphlet with the imprint of the egret, there are only a few incomprehensible words.
