"You really know him very well." Li Mi's words were tinged with sarcasm.

"Secondly, his body. Death energy is not something that anyone can bear. The person who invented this technique was because he wanted to improve his skills, but he absorbed too much death energy and finally returned to himself. His body There is no alienation, which proves that there is absolutely not much sword energy in his body. He is a genius swordsman, and he must be well aware of the dangers of this method."

After Yuan Tiangang said the reason, the three of them couldn't help but fell into deep thought.They suddenly felt that this mission was not that dangerous.

"Everyone, if this is done, I will definitely reward you generously." Zhong Xu also spoke at the right time.

Chapter 335 Sword marks and sword sounds

The air in early spring carries a hint of coolness, and the mountains and forests in the early morning are still white dew.A little bit of sunlight fell on a sect that had long been in ruins, reflecting a touch of sadness.

Xue Qianye and the others came to the inner courtyard of the Huangshan School, the body had already been taken away by the local government and buried, the blood on the ground and walls had already turned black, and the sword marks everywhere were shocking.Everyone checked separately, trying to find a clue from the crime scene.

Xue Qianye strolled and observed everything around, and finally came to a huge rock, and slowly slid his fingers along the sword marks on the stone. When they got together, they couldn't help but close their eyes.

At this moment, what emerged in my mind was the picture of the murderer holding a sword and attacking at the time of the crime.

One person, one sword, quick and fierce means, one person can kill all the people here.So in theory, it is impossible for the two complainants to survive.The only possibility is that the murderer let them go, and the purpose...

When I opened my eyes, the picture in my mind stopped abruptly.

This seems to be the only thing I know so far. People in this era seem to have no sense of protecting the scene when investigating cases. If I came here for the first time, I might be able to find some clues, but now the scene has been destroyed by the government. Except for these sword marks Other than that, there are no other useful clues.

Even the corpses are now rotten in the soil, and it is impossible to find anything useful.This is also the reason why the other party dared to ask me to check it confidently, because I couldn't find anything useful from this line.

However, it does not seem to be the case...

Soon, everyone was reunited in the courtyard again. Xue Qianye looked around and spoke first.

"What did you find?"

"There is only one murderer." Tie Shou first made his own judgment.

"Yes, his sword is very fast. There are bloodstains at the door. There should be a few people who realized that the situation was wrong and wanted to escape, but they were killed before they walked out of the door. A fatal sword is enough to show that the murderer is unfathomable." Leng Xue followed nodded.

"No more. There are no useful clues here at all. It's been three months and the corpses are gone." Zhui Ming said helplessly.

"However, those sword marks are indeed very similar to the swordsmanship you used before." Wuqing finally asked a question.

The others also looked at Xue Qianye with similar eyes.They wanted to know if Xue Qianye had taught Piao Miao swordsmanship to someone else.As for why it wasn't some black-hearted Emperor Wen, in their impression, it was said that Emperor Wen was lazy, and would never do such a trivial matter by himself, and even used his own swordsmanship.

Regarding this, Xue Qianye didn't say anything. As soon as he raised his hand, a sword energy flew out, and in an instant, a new mark was added on the boulder next to him.The position and size of the new marks are exactly the same as those of the old marks.

"Did you see the difference?" After finishing all this, Xue Qianye said calmly to everyone.

Everyone couldn't help coming to the boulder at the same time. They watched the two sword marks carefully for a long time, and finally they couldn't help showing expressions of sudden enlightenment.

"It looks the same, but when you look closely, there are some differences. What's the situation?" Zhui Ming turned back and asked curiously.

"The murderer used my sword to imitate my sword moves to kill people, and he did it very similarly. But unfortunately, he couldn't imitate the key points." Xue Qianye put down his hand and said calmly.

"The key place?"

Before Zhui Ming could react, Leng Xue, the sword user, had already thought of the key point.

"Sword Intent!"

Sword intent.Like calligraphy and painting, it belongs to a kind of artistic conception.This is a state that only a master can have.The same sword intent is rare, so even if two masters use the same sword technique, they will give people completely different feelings.

It's like the wolf king seal that Zhao'er used before is different from her own.

"That's right, it's the sword intent. My sword is free at will, and I can do anything at will. But that man's sword is extremely murderous, and even has a kind of contempt. From this, we can know that, The person with the sword is a killer, and he is very professional." Xue Qianye said as she came to the boulder.

Seeing this, the others in Gu took the initiative to make way for Xue Qianye.

"Assassins are very professional." Zhui Ming complained.

A killer is not a professional but still a killer?The unprofessionals are dead.

"What I mean is, his heart is very professional. Many killers kill people, and they think they are killing people. But that person is not." Xue Qianye stopped, pointing to a sword mark above.

"Killing is also killing? What do you mean?" Tie Shou was a little confused.

The others also listened in a daze, did they kill people or did they kill people?

They didn't see a master of the Buddhist sword. For that master, killing people is karma.But the murderer in front of him was the opposite.

"To put it simply, in that view, killing these people is like killing pigs. In his eyes, those dead people are not his kind at all, but pork for his sword to eat." Xue Qian Ye faintly spoke of the state of mind of a certain murderer.

A gust of cold wind blew by, and in an instant, everyone in the formation couldn't help shivering.

"Uh!" Zhui Ming felt a little scary.

"Zi, kill the pig..." Leng Xue couldn't help but feel a little subtle.Although he is called cold-blooded, he has not yet reached the point where he is regarded as a pig.

"This kind of person's psychology is abnormal." Ji Yaohua couldn't help complaining.

Although they have also captured a lot of thieves, but this one is already quite bad.

"So we already have clues, don't we?" Xue Qianye didn't feel anything about this, but thanked the murderer for his reminder.

"Clues? What clues?" Ruthless asked immediately.

"The person we are looking for is a master swordsman, a professional assassin, about 40 to [-] years old, a man, good at left-handed swords, able to imitate other people's sword moves, extremely proud personality, contempt for others, lone ranger, no organization, and Still a narcissist." Xue Qianye described many characteristics in one breath, as if the killer he had never even met was right in front of him and had even been caught by him.

"Narcissist? How do you see it?" Zhui Ming was deeply puzzled by this.

Other things are fine, but a narcissist...can you tell?

"The sword mark on the boulder here is not surrounded by blood, but the sword mark is the deepest place here. It was left on purpose by him. He knew I would come. This is a provocation to me, and it is also a show off. He has learned my sword skills, and his skills are far superior to mine." Based on a sword mark, Xue Qianye instantly deduced the mentality of a certain murderer.

In an instant, everyone couldn't help falling into silence, their thoughts were different.And this was also the first time that everyone saw the ability of a person named Xue Qianye.He didn't have any clues at all, and he could deduce so many things with just one sword mark.

Of course, there is no such thing as criminal psychology in this era, otherwise they probably wouldn't be so surprised.

"In my impression, there is a person who fits your description." After a long silence, Tie Shou suddenly said.

"Who?" Leng Xue asked immediately.

"Seventh on the list of exterminations, broken bones, he is a traitor of the Xiaoyao faction, and he is armed with the "Shengong of Wugong" and can imitate other people's martial arts for his own use."

In an instant, except for Xue Qianye, the others couldn't help but feel their backs start to feel cold.

Chapter 336 Take the Sword

The cold wind blows in the afternoon, and in the secluded forest, two groups of people are facing each other seriously.Li Mi led hundreds of Wagangzhai elites to surround more than a dozen Emei disciples.In order to prevent the same accident as last time, Li Mi brought out three of his four generals this time.

At the same time, standing beside him is his new good brother Linghu Chong.

In the previous battle with Xue Qianye, the sword in Linghu Chong's hand was interrupted by the opponent's move, so Linghu Chong's strength was greatly reduced, and Li Mi promised him to give him another sword afterward.Originally, Li Mi was still wondering where to find such a precious sword, but someone brought it to his door.

Emei's Yitian Sword is a well-known magical weapon in the world, although it is not as good as some legendary weapons, such as Gan Jiang Moxie, or Tai Ah.But the magical weapons that Li Mi can find so far can be regarded as sharp weapons, well, at least they are better than those in his hands.

Originally, Li Mi was worried that Linghu Chong was also from the Huashan faction, and would have a psychological burden on dealing with Emei, but he didn't expect that after hearing the name of Miejue Shitai, Linghu Chong said on the spot that he would go with him.

Now Li Mi has no worries at all. Considering that Emei is one of the Nine Great Sword Sects after all, he must have some strength and is not some trash. Li Mi did not order a direct siege this time. Those who came were all his confidants, and it hurts to lose him.

Now he only wants the Juejue Shitai of the Emei Sect to hand over the Yitian Sword, and then he can let them go, so that they will all be happy.

However, just because he thinks so doesn't mean others think the same way.Leaving aside his little brothers, Extinction has already made plans to kill the fish and kill the net.

Surrounded by so many people in front of him, Jue Mie knew that his trip might be a disaster.At this time, she regretted why she didn't bring more people out.Knowing that something had happened within the Nine Great Sword Sects, Wudang even abolished the Qingcheng Sect directly, turning it into a third-rate sect.obviously...

There are too many things that indicate that the world is not peaceful now, but unfortunately, she still didn't pay attention because of her habit.Originally, they came to return the sword this time.

That's right!Return the sword.Return the sword to Xue Qianye.

About three months ago, his disciple Zhou Zhiruo, under the leadership of her junior brother, went down the mountain to do some errands.In the end, they were crazily pursued by a male disciple of the Huangshan School. It's not that Emei couldn't marry, but Zhou Zhiruo didn't like that person.However, even so, the other party still gave her a good sword as a parting gift.

At that time, Zhou Zhiruo didn't think there was any problem.Then I heard that a tragedy had happened in Mount Huangshan. The Emei Sect had investigated everywhere, but found nothing. Zhou Zhiruo and the others did not return to the mountain until a month ago.At that time, she felt that the disciple's sword looked familiar.

But at the time, she wasn't sure that this was Xue Qianye's sword, after all, she didn't know what Xue Qianye's sword looked like at that time, and the scabbard had also been changed.

But half a month ago, after Sun Xiuqing returned to Emei from the North Martial Arts, he finally confirmed that this sword was the one Xue Qianye used before.After all, he had fought against each other before, and she had a deep impression on him at that time.

Then, things get a little more complicated.The Emei faction is also divided into two factions, one side thinks that it should return the sword, after all, it is not good to offend Xuehai for this.The other faction felt that it should not be returned. On the one hand, they felt that with Xue Qianye's current status, they might not care about the sword. On the other hand, it was mainly because it was a gift given to their disciples by others.

After all, they didn't grab the sword by themselves, nor did they say that they would not return it if they found it.

Although that sword is nothing in the eyes of Xue Qianye, in the eyes of the Emei faction, it is a rare magic weapon, comparable to the Yitian Sword.Naturally, this kind of treasure doesn't want to be given away.

But in the end, Miejue Shitai decided to return the sword, because her personality could not be used for black equipment.Especially the other party is still the pillar of the righteous way of Xuehai.And if Zhou Zhiruo is her disciple, she should naturally make the decision.

Originally, she had already set off, but it was only halfway that she heard that Xue Qianye had left Xuehai to investigate the case of Huangshan Miemen.

Huangshan again?

For a moment, Miejue Shitai felt a little danger.Although she didn't know what happened, she understood that she should immediately find Xue Qianye and explain the situation to the other party face to face, so as to resolve the misunderstanding.Otherwise, if the other party thinks that they are killing people and grabbing swords, then the joke will be too big.

Judging from her previous contact with Xue Qianye, the other party is Xue Hai's high-achieving student, not such an ignorant person, and if she tells the other party about this matter, she may be able to use the other party's wisdom to figure out what happened.

However, they were rushing all the way, just when she thought she was finally going to find Xue Qianye, a group of bandits surrounded her halfway.Not just ordinary bandits!

She has heard of the reputation of Wagangzhai, but as the deputy head of Emei, Master Jue Mie has a very strong personality. If she is to be humiliated by bandits, she would rather die.If it was her previous personality, she would fight with these, but right now, she has to consider the safety of the disciples behind her.She can't protect so many people by herself.

"Old nun, listen! I'm in a good mood today, and I don't want to start a killing spree, so hand over the Yitian sword." During the words, Li Mi raised his hand, retracting his fingers, and made a gesture of taking it.

Hearing that the other party came to exterminate for the Yitian sword, he was skeptical at this time.It should be said that although this Yitian sword is a magic weapon of the rivers and lakes, it is not top-notch.If you really think about Excalibur, you should go to the Mo family.Duan Ye, one of the nine calculations of the Mohist school, is called "Duanfuzi" by people in the rivers and lakes.

Xue Qianye's sword came from his hand.

"If you want the Yitian sword in my old hands, ask me about my Emei swordsmanship first. Huh!? I remember that you are a disciple of Huashan Yuebuqun. The dignified Huashan disciple actually calls a group of bandits brothers and brothers! Your master is called Junzijian, how could that be?" Is there an apprentice like you?" Halfway through the speech, Juejue suddenly noticed Linghu Chong who was beside Li Mi, and she angrily reprimanded Linghu Chong with a sword.

But anger is anger, at this time she didn't elevate the behavior of Linghu Chong, a disciple, to Yue Buqun, a master.

"Shut up, old nun. You never imagined that you would have this day, right? When you killed brother Tian, ​​did you ever think that you would be like this one day?" Linghu Chong said with a cynical face.

Well, one of the reasons why he took the initiative to come here is because Tian Boguang died at the hands of Miejue Shitai before.As a person who stabs both sides of his brother, now that he has the opportunity, he naturally wants to seek justice for Tian Boguang.

"Damn that bastard!"

"Brother Tian is my good friend, and he shares my loyalty with me. You shouldn't have killed him back then."

Hearing Linghu Chong's words, Miejue Shitai was so angry that his seven orifices were filled with smoke.

"Shut up, Nizi! That pervert shouldn't die, so my disciple should die!" Jue Jue roared on the spot.

At this moment, she is finally sure of one thing, these people are not here to grab the sword at all, but to seek justice for the brother of the prostitute in front of her.That's right, Yitian Sword is just an excuse.Their real purpose was to humiliate her, and even her disciples.

Chapter 337

That's right, lessons learned.She naturally substituted the death of one of her former disciples into this incident, and firmly believed in it.

"what?"

"My disciple's innocence was ruined by that prostitute, and he committed suicide to save his name. Should she die!" Jue Mie said angrily.

In a word, Linghu Chong couldn't help being speechless.At this moment, he still felt a little guilty about such a deadly thing.Li Mi on the side saw Linghu Chong's small thoughts, he had seen many such people, so he was going to do ideological work for his little brother.

Isn't it just guilt?As long as you do more, this kind of thing will naturally disappear, and then people will rationalize their behavior and get comfort from it.This is the experience of Li Mi's experience.

"What does your disciple's death have to do with my brother? Besides, it's not Tian Boguang who killed him."

Li Mi's opening made Linghu Chong feel a lot better.Then Li Mi continued.

"Old nun, don't change the subject. I will say it again, sir, hand over your Yitian sword, and I will spare you."

Facing Li Mi's threat, Miejue Shitai only had two words.

"dream!"

"Toast, don't eat fine wine!" After saying that, Li Mi clenched his fist and raised his hand, and the ground exploded.At this moment, Li Mi's heart was full of murderous intentions, but he was still thinking about the best solution.

"Brother Li, they are members of the Emei sect after all. Are we..." Seeing this, Linghu Chong immediately persuaded.

He hated Miejue Shitai, but at the same time he didn't want to deal with other disciples.And once Li Mi speaks, no one here will survive.

"Brother, don't worry, big brother understands what you mean. Old nun, since my brother has spoken, I won't make it difficult for you. Don't you decent people always like to be upright? Well, I will give you this chance. My good brother One-on-one, as long as you can beat him, I will let you go." Li Mi patted Linghu Chong on the shoulder, signaling him to be calm.At the same time, he put forward conditions to Miejue Shitai.

Well, that's exactly what he came up with.

"I don't need sympathy for such a hypocrite." Juejue continued to say forcefully.

"Then you compare, or not?"

"Hmph! Huashan Linghu Chong, I will replace your master today and discipline you, a dishonest disciple." Hearing this, Juejue also knew that he had no choice.She could only agree with the decision.

"Shut up! You are not qualified to replace my master." Hearing the master, Linghu Chong was furious.

In an instant, the two sides clashed with cold blades, and the forest was full of sword energy.In the sky full of fallen leaves, the two sides have already exchanged dozens of moves.However, the results were evenly divided, and even extinction was faintly at a disadvantage.For a while, all Emei disciples were impatient.

Juejue was shocked at this moment, she never expected Linghu Chong's skill to increase so quickly.Before that, she always felt that Linghu Chong was still the same Linghu Chong from the previous martial arts competition.She didn't even worry about his master, let alone him.

But right now, Linghu Chong not only has far surpassed his master in martial arts, but also far surpassed his master in swordsmanship.However, the only thing that gives Jue some comfort is that although Linghu Chong has a whole body of skill and amazing swordsmanship, he lacks experience and cannot use his strength.

Thinking of this, Jue Xing already had a solution in his heart.

Linghu Chong used the Broken Sword Stance out of the Nine Swords one after another, suppressing the deputy head of Juejue with his own strength, and he couldn't help being overjoyed.This time, he finally regained the feeling he had before, and the fear of Xue Qianye's sword gradually disappeared from his heart.
