[Comprehensive martial arts] This assassin is not easy to mess with

From leaving the Great Desert to arriving in Luoyang City, he has been thinking about one thing.

Who beat Gongsun Lan to death?

Looking at the scars on her body, it was wounded by a sharp sword.There were only five of them in Shi Guanyin's bedroom, three of them didn't use swords, one wore a sword, and the other was Gongsun Lan herself.

The person wearing the sword is Ah Jiu, but with Ah Jiu's skill, it is absolutely impossible for Gongsun Lan to be killed in an instant.What's more, Ah Jiu is far away and afraid of death. Anyone can be the killer, except Ah Jiu.

"Good brother, what are you thinking?" Gong Jiu looked at Jiang Chi who was frowning slightly beside him, and asked.

"I was wondering if there was another expert in Shilin Cave Mansion. He was hiding in the dark, and we didn't find out in time." Jiang Chi said.

"Because Gongsun Lan is dead?" Gong Jiu paused, and continued solemnly: "Good brother, there is Hu Tiehua outside the Shilin Cave Mansion, and you haven't seen his skills. There are rumors in the world that Hu Daxia is very powerful. He may be He broke in when no one was guarding the Shilin Cave Mansion, and killed Gongsun Lan when he was unaware. Because he was worried that Shi Guanyin was not dead, he escaped again."

When Jiang Chi heard the words, he suddenly felt that what Ah Jiu said made sense.He actually forgot that Hu Tiehua was also in the great desert, but he hadn't seen anyone who Hu Tiehua shot at.Although this man looks naive, judging from Gongsun Lan's death, he is not worthy of his appearance.

"Now that we have arrived in Luoyang City, we must be more cautious..." Before Jiang Chi finished speaking, he saw a carriage approaching him, and before he could react, he was pulled aside by Ah Jiu.

"Who, who's blind outside is blocking the way?" The coachman tightened the reins, and the carriage shook violently, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the people inside.

Hearing the words, Jiang Chi saw that the coachman didn't speak, but just kept wiping off the cold sweat that broke out just now, so he guessed that the person in the car was not a man to be trifled with.

"Whose girl is this, she has such a temper." Gong Jiu chuckled, looked at her hands protruding from the curtain of the carriage, and continued: "If you really hit someone, I'm afraid you're not staying in the car now, Instead, he lay on the ground."

Hearing this, Ah Zi jumped out of the carriage, and first hummed to the coachman: "I told you to go on the road just now, and I said in advance that no matter what, you can't stop. But now you have stopped, so the fare is gone .”

"And you, were you two blocking the way just now? Do you know the consequences of delaying my work for my master?" Ah Zi put her hands on her hips, looked at the two people standing in front of her for a while, and said loudly.

"Huh? Then tell me, what are the consequences? If you don't hurt me, the consequences will be serious, little girl, you should be ready to take responsibility for your actions." Jiang Chi's eyes were flat, but his expression was quite sharp.

Ah Zi paused for a moment, and after sending the coachman away, she turned her eyes to the jade pendant on Jiang Chi's body.

"Do you know the poisonous insects in the Western Regions?" Azi turned her hands away, pulled out a wooden box from her sleeve, approached Jiangchi a few minutes, and continued: "The kind of poisonous insects whose flesh/body will slowly rot after a small bite .In fact, it’s not a big deal that the flesh/body rots from top to bottom, the main thing is that you can’t die. The pain is that you are wearing an ugly skin and being rejected by the world.”

Poisonous insects from the Western Regions?

Jiang Chi lowered his eyes and looked at Ah Zi who was approaching him, somewhat unexpectedly.He thought that the people who used poison in the Western Regions should have reached the area of ​​the green bamboo forest, but he didn't expect to meet someone alone near Luoyang City.

Looking at Ah Zi's small movements in front of him, he felt that this person still had little to do.There were not many people around, and it was easy for him to see some small movements.If the people around were more crowded, perhaps Ah Zi would not be able to dodge if he made some small moves.

"Who is your master?" Jiang Chi asked.

"I won't tell you, what can you do to me?" Ah Zi said, opened the wooden box in her hand, and threw it on Jiang Chi.

He didn't hide, he and Ah Jiu ate the contents of the medicine bottle given by Chu Liuxiang.According to Chu Liuxiang, the effect of this medicine can last a whole day.If after a day, they were poisoned again, it would be a real disaster.

"If you don't want to tell me, I won't be polite to you." Gong Jiu stretched out his hand and flicked away the poisonous insects on Jiang Chi's body one by one, and said with a sneer.

"My brother was bitten by this poisonous insect a few times. Tell me, should I take off her arm first, or break her hand first?" Gong Jiu took Jiang Chi's hand and looked at the blood dripping from it. With the back of his hand, he said displeasedly.

Jiang Chi withdrew his hand. He knew that Ah Jiu was trying to scare the person in front of him, but this little girl had an arrogant attitude and vicious tactics. If she didn't scare her, she would never repent in the future.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then break her hand first."

Seeing that Jiang Chi was bitten by poisonous insects and nothing happened, AhZi couldn't help being a little surprised.When she realized that she wanted to run away, Gong Jiu grabbed her wrist and couldn't move.

"It hurts, hurts!" Ah Zi pushed hard with her other hand for a while, but failed to push away the hand that was pinching her wrist.After the people around gathered more and more, AhZi seemed to be desperate, and said aggrieved loudly: "Help, I was robbed!"

"The little girl didn't learn well, she stole our things, and she's here calling out for a thief." Jiang Chi heard this, took a step forward, and reprimanded her.

Some people who originally wanted to go forward to help Ah Zi retreated after hearing Jiang Chi's words.The rest of the people stared at the three of them with the attitude of watching a play.

"Also, what are people who use poison in the Western Regions coming to Luoyang City? Could it be that there is some conspiracy?" Jiang Chi looked around and suddenly remembered something, raised his hand that was bitten by a poisonous insect, and continued. : "If I hadn't taken the medicine before, I'm afraid I would have been poisoned to death by you now? If you fail to steal something, you will kill someone. I really can't see that you, a little girl, are so vicious."

"A person who used poison in the Western Regions?" A person in the crowd squeezed in when he heard the word Western Regions.After seeing that the little girl caught in front of her was A Zihou, she hurriedly stepped forward and said hesitantly: "I know this little girl, she has a bad temper and lacks discipline. I will take her away, and I will punish her well. It's better to let her go this time." Xu Zhu lowered his head slightly, put his hands together, said.

"Why do you need to deal with matters related to me?" Jiang Chi tilted his head, looked at the honest-looking Xu Zhu in front of him, and said indifferently.

"Then... why don't I take the punishment on AhZi's behalf." Xu Zhu shrugged his shoulders, stayed silent for a while, seeing that the two people in front of him really didn't want to let AhZi go easily, he raised his head and said.

"It's her hand that my brother wants to break, not yours. Just mind your own business. If you make my brother unhappy, I'll beat you too." Gong Jiu said coldly.

Seeing Xu Zhu's bitter face, Jiang Chi saw that Ah Zi who was standing beside him was really scared, he said: "If you want me not to care about this matter, it's fine, as long as you answer a few questions for me."

"What do you want to ask? Who is my master?" AhZi raised her head when she heard the words, her eyes flickered, as if afraid of Jiang Chi's repentance, she hurriedly said: "My master is Xingxiu old monster Ding Chunqiu."

"People who use poison in the Western Regions, what are you doing in Luoyang?" Jiang Chi asked again after hearing the words.

"I only know that master is going to the green bamboo forest, and he wants to discuss some important matters with someone. He didn't tell the rest of us as apprentices." After finishing speaking, Ah Zi sniffed, with tears in his eyes, and said aggrievedly : "Then can you let me go now?"

"Not yet, but your hand was saved." Jiang Chi said lightly.

He still didn't know how to go to the green bamboo forest, seeing that Ah Zi was so anxious to drive the car just now, she should have rushed to the green bamboo forest to meet her master.If he guessed correctly, the Xingxiu old monster AhZi was talking about was an expert outsider who was negotiating with the prince of Dali.

"This... You have finished asking all the questions, why are you still unwilling to let Ah Zi go." Xu Zhu said earnestly after hearing the words.

"..."

"I want her to take me to see her master. When I see Xingxiu, I will naturally let her go." Jiang Chi said.

"No, then you might as well kill me." Hearing this, Ah Zi cried a little, cast a look of help at Xu Zhu, and continued: "My master wanted to arrest me earlier, if I brought You go, don't you take the initiative to die?"

"It's dead anyway, it's better to die later, what do you think." Jiang Chi had an extra throwing knife on his fingertips, and after playing with it for a while, he smiled.

He no longer believed what Ah Zi said, from the beginning she was very proud of who her master was, to now she said she was afraid to meet her master, now he suspected that the little girl in front of him was full of lies.

"Then why not, I'll take you to see Ding Chunqiu. I heard elder brother mention that Ding Chunqiu wants to go to the green bamboo forest. You let Ah Zi go, come to me if you have something to do." After Xu Zhu finished speaking, he clenched his hands , tentatively said.

"It's okay." Hearing the words, Jiang Chi saw Ah Zi glaring at Xu Zhu, knowing that Xu Zhu just said some details that she didn't say.

AhZi has a lot of eyes, if Xu Zhu is allowed to go with her, Xu Zhu will probably be played around by this person within an hour.In another hour, Xu Zhu may still happily count the money for others after being sold.

"Then you will lead the way." After Jiang Chi finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and patted Gong Jiu's hand holding Ah Zi's wrist, and continued: "Little monk, you will stop a carriage later, and you will pay for the travel expenses." .”

"What little monk, my name is Xu Zhu. And you don't look older than me..." Xu Zhu lowered his head slightly, muttering in a low voice.

Letting Ah Zi go, he was actually a bit hesitant about whether it was right or not.But at present, according to Ah Zi who is so good at deceiving people and Xu Zhu who is stupid, if he is persuaded by Ah Zi and refuses to lead the way, he will be in trouble.

Seeing AhZi turning her head three times, he knew that she was worried that Xu Zhu would discuss her affairs too much.But he is not interested in A Zi's matter, he just wants to know whether the worldly expert who is discussing with the Dali Kingdom's son is Ding Chunqiu.

"Why are you two looking for Ding Chunqiu?" Xu Zhu stopped the carriage, after the three of them got into the carriage, he asked.

"I can't say it at the moment." Jiang Chi leaned on the side of the carriage, looked at Xu Zhu in front of him for a while, and felt that he was not just pretending to be dumb.

But after a stick of incense, the carriage stopped.

But the carriage didn't stop because it reached the green bamboo forest, but because the carriage was stopped by an ugly, hunchbacked little old man.

Jiang Chi lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked at the little old man with a cane below, and asked in confusion: "I don't know what you mean by stopping the carriage?"

Mu Gaofeng raised his head and smiled, raised his crutches and knocked on the wheel of the carriage, and said with a smile: "I stopped because I wanted to ride. For some reason, Luoyang is not small, but it is not easy to stop the carriage these days. There are always some The Chinese are driving on their way, let me, an old man, go easy."

"Then what are you doing to stop my carriage?" Seeing Mu Gaofeng's arrogant attitude, Jiang Chi also lowered his expression, and said in a cold tone.

"I'm tired from walking, so naturally I have to stop the nearest one." As soon as Mu Gaofeng finished speaking, he stretched out his crutches to lift the car curtain.

But as soon as the crutch touched the curtain of the car, Jiang Chi grabbed it.At the moment when he turned his wrist, Mu Gaofeng's cane made a "boom", the surrounding wood skin cracked, and the cane was scrapped.

Jiang Chi let go, pulled down the curtain of the carriage, and stopped looking at Mu Gaofeng.The man's crutches were destroyed by him, and he was probably holding his breath.But if Ruomu Gaofeng broke in and found three people in the carriage, he probably wouldn't attack him rashly.

Just as he was thinking, the carriage he was riding in began to walk again.It's just that there was a person standing on top of the carriage, seeing a circular shadow on it, he knew that Mu Gaofeng had come up with a broken crutch.

"Since you want to go together so much, why don't you come in. It's just that you have to pay me half of the fare." After Jiang Chi finished speaking, Mu Gaofeng jumped off the top and got into the carriage.

Mu Gaofeng saw that Jiang Chi was not the only person in the carriage, he was stunned for a moment, and then sat beside Xu Zhu.He thought that the little monk was probably not very skilled, and if something happened later, he would use the little monk as a tool to threaten others.

"Fare." Jiang Chi stretched out his hand and said indifferently.

Mu Gaofeng hesitated for a while, took out a bag of silver from his arms, and handed it to Jiang Chi.

Xu Zhu saw that he was about to say something, but he was glanced at by Jiang Chi at the side, and he didn't say anything.He really wanted to say, since he paid for the fare, why did the other person come up and give money to Jiang Chi.Xu Zhu bowed his head aggrievedly, he meditated for a long time in his heart.

Money is something outside of people.

"I'm going to the Green Bamboo Forest. If the three of you are traveling closer than me, you might as well get out of the car first. After all, I also gave the money." Mu Gaofeng saw Jiang Chi pouring out the money, and returned the empty bag to him. I just felt the veins on my forehead twitch violently a few times.

"Green Bamboo Forest?" Jiang Chi paused for a moment, and after seeing the silver stuffed into Ah Jiu's arms, he continued, "Let's go along the way."

When Mu Gaofeng heard this, his expression tensed up.After turning his eyes, he asked again: "What are you doing in the green bamboo forest?"

"What does it have to do with you?" Jiang Chi raised his eyes, looked at Mu Gaofeng with malicious eyes, and said coldly.

"I, Mu Gaofeng, was yelled at by several juniors today. If this gets out, where will I put my old face?" After Mu Gaofeng finished speaking, he took off the hunchback sword on his back, held it in his hand, Thinking about when is the right time to do it.

"Huh? If I don't answer your question, I'm just yelling at you? You are so old, but you are so glass-hearted. If this gets out, you will lose your old face." After Jiang Chi finished speaking, he took out a bag from his sleeve. Zhi Jian smiled lightly and continued: "Everyone is not a good person, if you don't talk to me well, don't expect me to be polite to you."

As soon as the words fell, the arrow in his hand grazed Mu Gaofeng's neck and plunged into the carriage.

Seeing this, Xu Zhu quickly closed his eyes and said silently: "Don't kill, peace is the most important thing."

Mu Gaofeng frowned slightly, swallowed his saliva, and after thinking for a while, he continued with a smile: "I was just joking with you, I wanted to test whether the younger generation has practiced martial arts well, but now it seems that I am completely worrying too much." .”

Hearing this, Gong Jiu straightened up and smiled, "Really? Then you mean that brother just blamed you by mistake?"

Mu Gaofeng shook his head and said: "It was the tone of my words that caused the misunderstanding, and my fault came first. Let's not mention this matter for now. Since we are on the way, there is no need to be hostile anymore. After all, we still have to stay together for a few hours. .”

Hearing this, Jiang Chi nodded.

Those who follow the wind have nothing to fear, but it is necessary to be careful.Generally, such people are usually not capable enough, and they only rely on attracting people to stabilize their foundation.

"Xu Zhu, I think you feel uncomfortable sitting there, why don't we change seats." Jiang Chi said, without waiting for Xu Zhu to refute, he gently pulled him up, and the two changed positions.He sat with Mu Gaofeng, while Xu Zhu sat with Ah Jiu.

Ah Jiu's skills are not good, Xu Zhu doesn't look like much either.When Ruomu Gaofeng got off the car, he attacked the two of them, but he had no choice but to protect them both.The only way now is to switch positions so that he can make a move before Mu Gaofeng makes any moves.

"What are you going to the green bamboo forest for?" Jiang Chi asked, looking at the person in front of him, tilting his head.

Mu Gaofeng paused slightly, only shook his head, and did not answer.

"Coincidentally, my third brother is in the Green Bamboo Forest. I was still thinking about whether to go to the Green Bamboo Forest to see my third brother, but because I have other important things, I didn't think about it. Now that I have met you, I don't have to think about it." There are other things." Seeing that none of the three people spoke, Xu Zhu sighed.

"Your third brother?" Jiang Chi raised his eyes and asked in doubt.

"My third younger brother is knowledgeable and refined, he is a kind person." Xu Zhu said with a smile.

"Same as you?" Jiang Chi asked with a slight smile.

"Same as me, they all have a compassionate heart." Xu Zhu clasped his hands together and said.

"That's over." Jiang Chi put away his smile and sighed.

"..."

Hearing this, Mu Gaofeng felt that the person sitting beside him was a little dangerous.

"There is a small road ahead, so it's not suitable for a carriage to pass by. Why don't you get out of the carriage and walk. It may take half an hour to arrive at the green bamboo forest." The driver stopped the carriage, looked at the bamboo forest in front of him, and said.

Hearing this, Jiang Chi reached out and patted Mu Gaofeng's shoulder, and said, "Why don't you go down first, and I'll follow behind."

Hearing this, Mu Gaofeng opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but seeing Jiang Chi's firm eyes, he stopped talking.When he bent down and got off the carriage, he saw Jiang Chi coming down behind him.

That speed is obviously to prevent him from doing anything else, he originally wanted to take this opportunity to rob Xu Zhu and use it to threaten the other two people, but now it seems that he has no chance at all.

"There is a bamboo forest in front, it's easy to get lost. Just follow me closely." After Xu Zhu finished speaking, he wanted to lead the way, but just as he took a step, Jiang Chi grabbed his sleeve.

"Don't go too far, stand between me and Ah Jiu." Jiang Chi said, turned his head to look at Mu Gaofeng next to him, and continued: "As for you, if you want to be together, don't wander around."

Mu Gaofeng smiled, even if he wanted to walk around, he had no chance.After all, the people in front of him defend him like thieves.

"Good brother, you don't want to go with me because of a little monk." Gong Jiu looked at Xu Zhu standing beside him, pretending to be wronged.

"..."

Jiang Chi glanced at Ah Jiu, and was about to reprimand him, when he met Ah Jiu's eyes full of grievances.

He was originally thinking about the safety of the two of them, but now Ah Jiu was actually aggrieved and complaining.If it wasn't for him not having any unhappy things today, he would definitely train Ah Jiu well.

"good."

After a while, he really couldn't think of how to explain it to Ah Jiu, so he only choked out this one word.

Hearing this, Gong Jiu smiled and stopped talking.It was worth it for his good brother to say such a word.

After walking for a while, Mu Gaofeng saw a jade pendant on Jiang Chi's body, which seemed to be similar to what he wanted.He hesitated and said, "I don't know where your jade pendant came from?"

Jiang Chi lowered his head and looked at the jade pendant tied by Ah Jiu. Just as he was about to say that he picked it up, Ah Jiu on the side spoke first.

"Why are you asking this? You don't have to think about this jade pendant. No one is allowed to touch the jade pendant on my brother's body except himself." That was his token of love. Cut that person into pieces.

"It's them!" Just as Gong Jiu finished speaking, a familiar voice sounded from the side of the bamboo forest.

Jiang Chi looked towards the place where the sound came from, and saw Ah Zi and a silver-haired old man with a white beard walking towards them.

"That man has the jade pendant that Master wants, Master, have you seen it?" Azi said, pointing to Jiang Chi.

"I see." Ding Chunqiu smiled when he saw the jade pendant, his eyes widened a bit.

"Then Master can stop worrying about the previous things from me." AhZi asked tentatively seeing Ding ChunQiu's smiling face.

"You found a jade pendant for my teacher, and the past will be erased." After Ding Chunqiu finished speaking, he shook the Xiaoyao Fan in his hand.

Jiang Chi paused slightly, he just wanted Xu Zhu and Ah Jiu to stay away, when he saw Ding ChunQiu raised his palm and approached him.

Ding Chunqiu's palm is very fast, it is not difficult for him to dodge, but the palm of the person in front of him is a bit strange.If he was not mistaken, there was some foul breath in this person's palm, which seemed to be poison.

The medicine given by Chu Liuxiang can only cure poisonous insects, poisonous arrows and other poisons. If he dodges, the poison on the palm of his hand will stick to Ah Jiu.If he didn't dodge, he wasn't sure whether Chu Liuxiang's medicine would work if he blocked the palm.

But anyway, he couldn't die, the worst would be pain for a few days.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chi stretched out his hand, wanting to take Ding Chunqiu's palm.

But Ah Jiu was one step ahead of him.

He only heard a muffled groan, the person who was facing him and blocked Ding Chunqiu's palm suddenly spat out a mouthful of black blood, closed his eyes in front of him, and fell down.

"Ah Jiu..."
