Chapter 261
261 chapter

Walking around the city, Xu Ning was immersed in the world of fireworks. If he didn't pay attention, it was already sunset and the moon chanted.

The cold moon hangs high, and the brilliance sprinkles on the river. The silver and white undulations, the rippling water, are too beautiful to behold.

Xu Ning stood by the river with a long sword on his waist. Looking from a distance, he had an indescribable aura. People coming and going did not dare to disturb him.

But just when Xu Ning was admiring the beautiful scenery in front of him, connecting with the seven orifices in his body, trying to stabilize the inner world, the melodious and profound sound of the flute suddenly came to his ears. It was gentle and sad, like crying and complaining, and seemed to penetrate into his heart.

Xu Ning looked back in astonishment, and saw a small boat sailing out of the dark place by the river. Standing at the bow was a young girl in white.Holding a blue-green jade flute in his hand, his pink lips are pressed against his mouth, the music is melodious, and his sobs are full of sorrow, as if expressing the resentment and thoughts in his heart.

This situation is like a fairy, tender like water, and beautiful like a picture scroll.

Facing this person, Xu Ning's eyes narrowed slightly, and he clasped his right hand on the Bi Dai sword. Although he did not draw the sword, the power of the seven orifices flowed through his body, and a feeling of calmness and self-power spread out.

Facing Gu Xiaosang, the Luo Jiao saint who is fourth on the list, Xu Ning cannot help but be careless. Although she doesn't know why she appears in the realm of Zhenwu Sect, it is an indisputable fact that he slashed her in the first place. It is better to be careful. .

"It's been a long time, Master. I heard that you have bid farewell to Shaolin Qingjing and are with Miss Qi Xia from the Dajiang Gang. Why don't you see that one today?" There is light flowing in Gu Xiaosang's beautiful eyes. The boat is misty, but it is flowing. He remained motionless in the water and never went any further.

Hearing this, Xu Ning smiled leisurely: "Miss Qi is visiting the Zhenwu Sect at the moment, but why does the dignified Luo Jiao saint Gu Xiaosang come to the Zhenwu Sect? Is it possible that the Luo Jiao has a conspiracy against the Zhenwu Sect?"

While speaking, Xu Ning's fingers gently tapped the delicate scabbard of Bi Daijian, making a soft ticking sound.

Gu Xiaosang's dark eyebrows wrinkled, and then slowly relaxed. The graceful figure moved slightly under the moonlight, stepped forward, and heard a deeper roaring sound. The crisp sound of Ning's sword ruined the rhythmic sound.

"Since Master Zhenyuan doesn't welcome concubines, let's not disturb Master Zhenyuan's leisure and elegance of admiring the moon." Gu Xiaosang grinned, and added: "By the way, if Master Zhenyuan sees your younger brother, it will be true. Master, please pass on a message to my body, saying that we will continue our relationship in the future, and as for Master Zhenyuan's knife, I will ask for advice in the future."

After saying that, the boat headed towards the distant river, and soon it disappeared under the moonlight.

Xu Ning saw him leaving with far-reaching eyes. He never thought that he would meet this person while admiring the moon on the river. If he hadn't upgraded to the fourth level overnight and achieved the realm of seven orifices, he could use the art of music to go far away. There are reports everywhere that this place is close to the Zhenwu sect, and there might really be a fight today.

And what Gu Xiaosang said about asking him to lead Zhending to "renew the relationship", could it be that he didn't kill Meng Qi last time and he wanted to do it again?
While Xu Ning was thinking wildly, several sounds pierced the air. It was Zhang Yuanshan who came quickly with Qi Xia and several masters.

The sound of Xu Ning's chirping sword just now was a clear and sharp sound. It spread far and wide, and was captured by Zhang Yuanshan and Qi Xia, who brought people here.

"What's wrong with Junior Brother Xu? You called us in a hurry." Zhang Yuanshan asked in confusion when he saw Xu Ning staying on the riverside like nothing happened.

"I saw Gu Xiaosang just now." Xu Ning's words directly made Zhang Yuanshan, Qi Xia and others feel tense, the reputation of being number four on the list is really too loud.

"That's the last time... Gu Xiaosang? She didn't care about you, right?" When Zhang Yuanshan heard this, he quickly walked around Xu Ning and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xu Ning was unscathed.

After all, the visitor is a guest. If something happens to Xu Ning in his Zhang Yuanshan territory, it will greatly damage the reputation of him and the Zhenwu Sect.

"No, Gu Xiaosang might have been worried about people sent by Zhenwu, so he just said a few words to me in the air and then retreated." Xu Ning shook his head, apparently comforting Qi Xia, Zhang Yuanshan said.

In fact, he knew very well that the two people's Qi had just had a confrontation, and his Qi had greatly improved after refining the Seven Apertures. Gu Xiaosang felt this and knew that he could not defeat him in a short time. , and then left.

In Xu Ning's perception, Gu Xiaosang's realm was far beyond him. He was at the seventh orifice realm, and the other party must be above the seventh orifice realm.

Xu Ning told Zhang Yuanshan and Qi Xia what Gu Xiaosang had just said. Zhang Yuanshan's eyes flashed when he heard the words, and he directly ordered the few people who followed him to disperse, obviously to implement some plan.

The majestic Luo Jiao saint appeared outside the Zhenwu sect's residence. Zhang Yuanshan, a Zhenwu disciple, was naturally very interested and directly ordered people to investigate. He took Xu Ning and Qi Xia back to the Zhang family to avoid Gu Xiao Sang quickly turned around and cooked the three of them in one pot.

The appearance of Gu Xiaosang also disrupted Xu Ning's arrangement plan. He originally wanted to take a stroll around the Zhenwu Sect, but when people from the Luo Sect appeared here, they were probably planning something behind the scenes, and he and Gu Xiaosang also had After a grudge against Yidao, the other party also said that he would come to him for advice in the future.

Therefore, Xu Ning and Qi Xia, with the help of Zhang Yuanshan, secretly left the Zhenwu sect and headed towards the territory of another friend, Qi Zhengyan.

Under Qi Xia's small treasury, Xu Ning and Xu Ning took a "luxury cruise". They traveled upstream. The boat traveled slowly. Huanzhou and its surroundings were surrounded by barren mountains and rivers. Many places with fast currents could only be passed at certain times every day. The assistance of the tracker was also indispensable, so more than half a month passed before the building boat gradually entered the range of Huanzhou.

As the weather has cooled down recently, the feeling on the river has become more obvious. Many boat passengers have chosen to stay in the guest rooms, wrapped in warm quilts, waiting for the servants of the floor boat to deliver meals, wine, braziers, and thick quilts, so it is said that the floor boat There were not many people in the hall, there were only about five or six tables.

Xu Ning and Qi Xia found a seat by the window and ordered hot hot pot. Qi Xia beside them thoughtfully helped Xu Ning pour the wine.

After drinking the strong wine, he picked up a piece of mutton stained with spicy oil with his chopsticks. Xu Ning directly dipped it in the sauce and stuffed it into his stomach in one breath. It formed a continuous stream of hot air with the strong wine, making his whole body feel comfortable.

"Junior Brother Xu, you are quite comfortable. How come I am still serving you like a maid while I am walking around with you?" Qi Xia sat next to Xu Ning. Although she said this verbally, her body was still very honest. Pour the wine.

"There is nothing I can do. Senior sister is naturally beautiful. If I serve you, I am afraid that people will guess that I am a young lady from a famous family. I will only wrong you." Xu Ning consoled her.

After leaving the Zhenwu School, the two of them dressed in another style. He is a suave and suave son of a rich family, while Qi Xia is a handsome maid with a strong figure.

"Huh." Qi Xia hummed, but didn't say much.

After drinking a glass of wine, Xu Ning leaned slightly towards Qi Xia and said using the art of sound transmission: "Senior Sister Qi, something is not right in our hall."

Apart from Xu Ning and Qi Xia, there was also a table with an imposing young man. His face was slightly childish, and every move he made was in line with etiquette. He wore a jade hairpin and a green pendant hanging from his waist. Other than that, he had no other words. Beside him sits an old man dressed as a servant. He is very old and has deep wrinkles, but his eyes are shining brightly when he opens and closes them.

One table is a single woman, plain clothes and white robes, elegant and fairy-like, with a white sheathed long sword on the table, with a vaguely disturbed expression, constantly looking at the people at the two nearby tables.

Next to her, there was a man with a ferocious expression at a table. He had normal facial features, his hands were as big as cattail fans, and his joints protruded. He had extraordinary palm skills at first glance. At the other table were a couple. The man's face was pale and he coughed repeatedly, as if She is a sick child, the woman's face is delicate and beautiful, plump, and her skin is shiny and moving.

The reason why Xu Ning felt something was wrong was because of the expression of the single woman and the ferocious look of the man with big hands.

There were two tables left, one was a drunkard, the dishes didn't move much, but he drank several pots of wine, his face was flushed, and he was drunk. The table next to the door was two young men dressed as princes, one with a sword, and his hair stood on end. Crown, with a narrow and long face, and one with a long knife, whether smiling or sighing, the expression on his face is always very light and small.

Xu Ning and Qi Xia looked at each other, and Qi Xia said softly, "Master, please take off the sword from your waist and give it to me."

Qi Xia took the Bi Dai Sword with her small hands and placed it on her lap.

The place where Xu Ning is sitting is included. If there is a fight later in the hall, drawing the sword will always be blocked, which is inconvenient. Although it will not have much impact on a master of his own strength, between life and death, it can take an instant. It's a world of difference.

Qi Xia is sitting next to Xu Ning. If there is a fight later, Xu Ning can directly pull out the Bi Dai sword from his leg, and naturally it will not be hindered.

After the two were ready, they stopped talking and ate leisurely, listening to the conversations of the people around them.

………………

"Brother Tang, I haven't seen you for three years. You have already opened your six apertures. You are considered a good master of the younger generation. Congratulations. It's worth a drink!" Mr. Saber raised his glass with a smile.

Brother Tang drank a glass of wine with him somewhat complacently, and sighed: "Brother Wanxian, Brother Yu advises you that traveling thousands of miles and going through all kinds of things is better than practicing hard in your hometown for ten years. Three years ago, I was defeated by Ye San, and I had no face to face others, so I had to use the excuse of wandering and tempering, and go far away."

"This time, I realized that the sky is high and the earth is wide. There are many masters in the rivers and lakes. I have endured a lot of hardships and endured all kinds of anger, but I have also gained a lot. I have opened up four apertures in three years and made great progress in sword skills. Compared with the past, It's completely reborn, and now I'm returning home, I want to weigh Ye San and the others' gains!"

He said it confidently.Mr. Wan laughed and said: "Ye San and the others are still wandering around the city. They used to have four acupoints, but now they have just opened their noses. Brother Tang, you are returning home because you are traveling in brocade clothes at night. I really want to see their faces."

Yicheng... Xu Ning took a breath, isn't this the small town where Qi Zhengyan is in charge?
The city of Huanzhou is the capital of Yedu of Zhou County, and the city is a small town near Yedu. % of the land belongs to the Huanhua Sword Sect, so after Qi Zhengyan applied for a property outside the Lishan Guarding Sect, he was sent here to assist a certain uncle in managing Zhuangzi's fields. Tenant farmers and ancillary shops, etc.

Since there were many properties to manage, he and his uncle were basically in charge of each other's affairs, free and easy without any restraint.

Xu Ning looked intently and found that Brother Tang was 25 or years old. He immediately muttered in his heart: "The Ye San he mentioned should be about the same age as him, and he has no experience of going out. He is still staying in Yicheng. At this age, he has six orifices. I’m afraid he’s from a noble family…”

The city is not big. Although it is a prosperous place with Yedu as its back, there are many merchants coming and going, but it can accommodate no more than five aristocratic families.

Brother Tang poured himself a glass of wine and shook it in his hand: "The shame of the past will be brought to justice now. After this matter is over, I will travel far away again, striving to open all my senses one day, or step into the half-step outdoor scene." , Brother Wanxian, are you together?"

Master Wan smiled wryly and shook his head: "You and I are about the same age, I still only rely on pills to open my eyes, I have long since lost my heart for martial arts, and now I am concentrating on looking at the family business."

"It's okay, it's okay, if you wander the rivers and lakes, you might end up in a different place at some point, lying dead on the side of the road, no one knows, wild dogs devour..." Brother Tang seemed to be reminded of some kind of memory, and his voice sounded like A little low, with a slightly fearful expression.

Xu Ning could be considered a veteran of the world, and after observing his words, he felt that in addition to "returning rich and honorable, and traveling in fine clothes at night" when a man named Tang returned to his hometown, there might also be a reason to avoid disaster.

While the two were talking, the weird atmosphere in the center of the hall finally broke out.

Bang, the vicious man slapped his own wine table down, stood up, walked towards the woman in plain skirt, gritted his teeth and said: "You little bitch, you dare to ruin our important event, you are really tired of living."

He seemed to have finally abandoned his worries, stopped caring about others, and acted directly.

At the same time, the coughing sick man and his charming wife also got up and approached from another direction, blocking the escape route.

The woman in plain skirt is 23, four years old, with distant mountain eyebrows, hanging gall nose, elegant as a fairy, she can be regarded as a rare beauty, she frowned, her face was resolute, she drew her long sword, put on a defensive posture and said: "Mie Tianmen is notorious, we It's not bad for you, there are knights who will take action!"

The Nine Paths of Evil are suppressed by decent families and have little reputation in the ears of ordinary people. However, Qi Xia is the daughter of the deputy gang leader of the Dajiang Gang, so she naturally understands it. She is even worried that Xu Ning does not know about it and explains to him:

"Mietianmen is one of the Nine Paths of Evil Demons. With the purpose of destroying the world and destroying the world, it used to be very powerful and plotted shocking conspiracies many times. However, since the battle between the 'magician' Han Guang who was condensed into a dharma body and Master Kongwen, the abbot of Shaolin, disappeared. , they were hit hard and turned into secrets, the famous masters in the Jianghu are only the eight heavenly demons and the 19 human demons."

The ferocious man did not attack, but pressed forward step by step. He looked at the Suqun woman with a sneer: "Shan Xiumei, you are in doom today, why don't you just capture her and make me happy."

This is to irritate the other party with foul language and make the other party feel impatient, thereby enhancing the chances of winning.

At this moment, Qi Xia is like Wang Yuyan next to Murong Fu: "A famous female swordsman from all over the world. She comes from the Zhoushan Sword Sect. She is a master of the Six Apertures and has outstanding swordsmanship. No wonder the three of the Mie Tian Clan are hesitant."

"No, it can't be Murong Fu and Wang Yuyan. The consequences for these two people are not very good..." Xu Ning saw Qi Xia talking freely and dispersed the thoughts in his mind.

Shan Xiumei said calmly: "The iron-handed devil, the joyful devil, kill if you want, what are you talking about?"

Qi Xia shifted his gaze and looked at the sick man and the charming young woman: "The 19 demons of Mie Tianmen are all masters in the opening period. At worst, they have seven orifices. Each has its own specialty. The iron-handed demon is one of them. 'Huanxi Ren' The same goes for demons, I don’t know who among them is..."

The charming young woman giggled and said, "Sister Shan, I didn't expect you to recognize the identity of the slave family, and the slave family planned to give you a surprise."

She looked leisurely and relaxed, with her slender hands on the shoulders of her sick husband, and she walked slowly, accompanied by the sound of coughing.

Shan Xiumei took a deep breath, and her expression became more determined: "Shoot, either you will die, or I will die."

"What a fierce girl, I really want to accept it and train it well." The Huanxi Human Demon made a move, reached out with his right palm, and grabbed the long sword of Shan Xiumei, his body bent into a very tempting arc.

The iron-handed demon slapped his face, fierce and domineering, making Shan Xiumei almost feel like a hot wind blowing against his face.

Shan Xiumei stretched out her long sword, the sword leaped like a fish, agile and resolute.

"Miss Dan is good at the Thirteen Swords of Fish Leaping Dragon Gate, but the Happy Demon and the Iron Hand Demon are stronger," Qi Xia said.

"Stop!" Suddenly, someone sternly shouted, it was that handsome young master.

He pulled out the long sword at his waist, and said in a deep voice: "Evil devils heretics, everyone can be punished, Miss Shan, let me help you."

As soon as the words fell, the striker's aura rose sharply, his righteousness was awe-inspiring, and no one could look at him closely, and he drove the Huanxi demon back with a single strike.

"The aura of Haoran, the Wang family of Zhoujun..." Qi Xia reminded.

The Zhoujun Wang family is one of the fourteenth aristocratic families, a top martial arts force as famous as Shaolin Temple, Zhenwu Sect, and Dajiang Clan.

Their township Dafa is "awe-inspiring spirit".

Feeling that he shocked the onlookers, the prince of Zhoujun Wang quickly unfolded his swordsmanship, majestic, majestic, upright and grand, making Huanxi Renmo and her husband back again and again.

Shan Xiumei also showed her sword skills, fighting fiercely with the iron-handed man and demon.

The Huanxi Human Demon and the Iron Hand Demon have already withdrawn after knowing that they are facing the Zhoujun Wang family, not because they are afraid of the son, but because they are worried about the old servant who has not yet made a move.

At this moment, the drunk man on the other table suddenly jumped up, holding bamboo chopsticks, rushed to brother Tang and Mr. Wan, and stabbed them hard.

His timing was right, unexpected, and it was only then that he showed his killing intent and attacked suddenly.

One of the two bamboo chopsticks was inserted into Mr. Wan's neck, and the other pointed directly at Mr. Tang's throat.

Mr. Tang seemed to be on guard all the time, even though he was attracted by the fight of Shan Xiumei and the others, he kept his eyes on his surroundings, and in an emergency, he slammed back, smashed through the wooden wall, and flew upside down into the river.

Plop, where he fell into the water, blood rose up, it seemed that it was a bit late after all, and the wooden chopsticks pierced his throat.

The assassinated drunk kept walking, followed the big hole that Mr. Tang had knocked out, jumped into the water, and escaped by the river.

Qi Xia frowned slightly and said: "This killer is very outstanding and appears to be "professional" in all aspects. He may be a member of the famous killer organization, the "Buren Tower" in the Nine Paths of Evil."

Of course, there are also two or three major forces that will also be part-time killers, such as the Impermanence of Life and Death in the Nine Paths of Demons, such as the Tieyi Building among the six giants.

On the other side, the Huanxi human demon who wanted to retire found an opportunity to force the son of the Wang family of Zhou County to retreat. He also broke through the wooden wall with her husband and jumped into the river.

The old servant remained motionless, as if the young master would only take action if his life was in danger.

"Junior Brother Xu, what should we say, do you want to help?" Qi Xia asked in a low voice when he saw that everyone at the table except theirs was fighting.
