For the killer, anger, or unwillingness, or longing, even if it is just a momentary emotion, will be grasped and become a weakness, and then the possibility of assassination, and life will be cut off with a single knife.

Before meeting Lu Jie, Tang He thought that he was calm enough. After the fight, Tang He realized that he was far behind in being a killer and assassin, whether it was deadly means or hiding his whereabouts.Tang He gradually realized that his former self was just a frog that just jumped out of a deep well, and what he saw was just a corner of the sky.

He fought again and again, and was defeated by Lu Jie time and time again.Lu Jie was always able to get ahead of the mechanism he was ambushing first, and then, the crescent-like arc of the knife pierced the night.No matter how many times it is, Tang He will suddenly recall the scene when we first met.

The blade with a cold light approached Tang He's neck, announcing the victory of this sparring.Lu Jie stood in front of him and put the scimitar behind his back.

There was a crack in the silver mask, and after the sound of the battle fell silent, the crack spread suddenly.Tang He reached out to catch the shattered mask, and when he lowered his eyes, drops of blood fell on the edge of the fragment.

Tang He had a thin wound on his face, so slight that Tang He couldn't feel any pain, he just watched the blood ooze out along the wound numbly.

There is an extra hand in sight.The familiar gold-patterned armguard, with his fingers close together, wiped away the blood from the wound for Tang He, and there was a touch of bright red on the white gloves.There was that inconspicuous tenderness on Tang He's face.

Tang He regained his senses holding the thousand receivers, breathed out a little, and said to Lu Jie, "Come again." Just as the words were finished, Lu Jie turned sideways and raised his hand to pat Tang He's head.

"You don't have much energy left. If you keep fighting, the result will be obvious." The white cat that jumped down from the tree followed Lu Jie's beckoning and ran all the way to Lu Jie's shoulder. "It's getting late today, if you don't mind, continue tomorrow."

"Tomorrow, don't break the contract." Tang He frowned and replied coldly, then turned and walked towards Liefengji.

After paying more attention to the fragment of the mask Tang He was still holding in his hand, Lu Jie said, "Your mask is broken."

Lu Jie walked beside Tang He, and Tang He closed his eyes all the way as if he didn't want to see Lu Jie, so the natural answer was not very kind. "No problem, it can still be used after repair."

"Why not change it?"

"I don't want to change."

"Is there any significance?"

"No."

Tang He has been wearing this mask since he became a killer, and he doesn't want to change it to be true, but after thinking about it for a few seconds, it doesn't have any significance.Regarding what is really about this mask, the first thing Tang He thought of was the scene when he and Lu Jie fought for the first time.

The light of the sword that slashed at him from the sky suddenly appeared on the people of the Western Regions under the bright moon.A corner of the lowered hat brim was raised, revealing glazed eyes.At that moment, the beautiful and dangerous smile made people so obsessed that they almost forgot that they were already under the fangs.

The moment he realized "death", that person suddenly disappeared.

That time, his mask was broken for the first time, and he had to change it when he sent it to someone for repair, and then changed it back to the original one when it was repaired.

The disciples of Mingjiao and Tangmen sects in Jianghu are the most suitable killers and assassins because they are good at hiding their whereabouts. Therefore, they have to deliberately hide their true faces during missions, leaving a mysterious and unpredictable impression on others.

Tang He took a peek at Lu Jie. Both Tang He and Lu Jie lived in masks, but Lu Jie's mask was his smile.

"Sir." The little drug boy knocked on the wooden door, and the young man who was sitting quietly in the darkness slowly turned his head, and the hanging blue hair brushed behind him.The wheels on both sides of the chair rolled forward with the push of those skinny hands, and the medicine boy opened the door for him, pushing him towards the dungeon.

The stench of rot came from the prisoner's cell, where several members of the Haoqi League were imprisoned. Of course, they were dead now.The wheelchair stopped in front of the iron gate, and the detainees in the opposite room saw Pei Guiqing reappearing here, their eyes were all red with hatred written in their eyes, and they rushed forward as if they wanted to break free from their feet The iron chain kept beating on the gate, wishing to rush out and tear people apart.

"Pei Guiqing—you evil ghost—!" the captive screamed angrily while clutching the iron bars tightly.

Pei Guiqing ignored it, and the guard behind him opened the cell door in front of him.The guard stayed at the door because of the stench and blood, but Pei Guiqing seemed to have gotten used to it long ago. He pushed the chair wheel and entered the cell, carefully inspecting the three dead bodies lying on the ground.

The appearance of the death was very miserable, the skin began to be eroded by the Gu insects, there were ruptures everywhere, the internal organs were turned out from the big hole in the chest and abdomen, the blood was sticky, and what was flowing on the ground had basically clotted into blood clots.

A soft sigh came from Pei Guiqing's mouth. "Let's deal with it." He whispered, and the guard ordered the people waiting outside to come in.

Pei Guiqing also went back with the help of the wheelchair, and when he was about to leave the dungeon with his back, the living man on the opposite side suddenly stretched out his hand through the gap in the iron grille, took the opportunity to grab Pei Guiqing fiercely, and forcefully pulled Pei Guiqing out of the dungeon. He was pulled off the wheelchair, pulled in front of him and bumped his head against the iron grid, panting heavily.

"What are you doing?! Let go of senior brother!" Qu Xi was taken aback, and ran forward to grab the man's arm, desperately trying to separate them, but because of her lack of strength, it didn't work at all.

"How could you watch your former colleague die in front of you with such indifference?! Pei Guiqing?!" A furious voice resounded in the dungeon. Seeing this, the guard rushed forward and punched the man on the ground On the ground, take Pei Guiqing to protect him.

"Sir, are you all right?"

"It's okay." Pei Guiqing said lightly, and let the guard help him to sit back in the wheelchair.

"If you do this, are you still worthy of your title of 'Rebirth Envoy'!?" The man struggled to get up and grabbed the iron fence again, pushing his face forward desperately, staring fiercely at Pei Guiqing as he left With a wailing voice from his back, "Where is your conscience! Disrespect the general's painstaking efforts to bring you back to the noble spirit! Pei Guiqing! You will suffer retribution—!"

The harsh words came to his ears, Pei Guiqing and Zhuo didn't stop and didn't look back at him, as if they didn't hear anything, they left the dark and oppressive dungeon.

"Brother, the medicine we used before doesn't seem to be working." Qu Xi lowered her eyebrows and fell into distress. "I still don't have a clue about how to solve the blood-devouring Gu, where is senior brother?"

Pei Guiqing's voice seemed a lot colder, as if his colleagues had nothing to do with him. "The captives held in the dungeon are not strong enough in physique and cultivation, and they don't have strong minds. Blood-devouring Gu is too cruel for them, and they will definitely die in three days."

Qu Xi reached out and touched the small basket with the medicine gu on his waist, "Then...why does Big Brother Shen act like nothing happened now?"

"I'm afraid not." Pei Guiqing shook his head, "No matter how strong your body is with such a vicious Gu poison, nothing will happen at all. Shen Xiao is just suppressing the Gu insect forcibly. When it really happens, I'm afraid it will still be painful .but I'm just afraid..."

"What are you afraid of?" Qu Xi's voice became more and more uneasy.

"I'm just afraid that the blood-devouring Gu is not that simple."

Qu Xi subconsciously stopped, and walked around to Pei Guiqing, "It's not that simple? What does Senior Brother Pei mean?"

Pei Guiqing pointed to Qu Xi in the direction of Shang Beast Garden, and continued: "In the future, there is no need to use captives as experimental subjects. The blood-eating Gu larvae we cultivated a few days ago, I asked the people at Shang Beast Garden I borrowed a tiger and went to see the situation."

"Hey. Good."

Qu Xi responded and ran to the back to push the wheelchair towards Shang Beast Garden, passing the stone tablet bound with iron chains at the intersection of Sansheng.At this moment, a shadow secretly flashed on the top of the stele, squatted for a while, and then disappeared immediately.

The owner of Shang Beast Garden greeted Pei Guiqing and Qu Xi, and led them to check the two mountain tigers, but the direction was not to the animal farm, but all the way west, to a corner of Shang Beast Garden, Pei Guiqing Only then did I see a tiger cage under the cliff.

"Why lock it up?"

The head guard Ling guarded Pei Guiqing behind him, and he took a step towards the tiger cage, and then that amazing scene happened-the tiger had a grim face, but as soon as the head came forward, he immediately threw himself on the cage, as if at any time The posture of attacking is like the two people who were facing each other in the dungeon just now.

"To tell the truth, sir, this tiger's temperament has changed drastically, as if he has gone mad."

"Crazy? How to say?"

"The ferocious beasts in the Shang Beast Garden are all tamed by the animal trainer. Without the order of the animal trainer, they will not attack and bite people. But this tiger, after being implanted with Gu worms, suddenly went berserk and took the beasts in the Shang Beast Garden. The other twenty or so tigers were all killed. I only captured them after injuring more than a dozen brothers, so I locked them up and dared not release them."

While the head of the house was explaining this, the tiger was still showing its bright fangs and was about to be locked, and its thick claws rested on both sides of the fence, as if it was about to break free from the cage.

"Brother..." Qu Xi leaned over to Pei Guiqing's ear and whispered, "Could it be..."

"Whether the same happens in humans is unknown."

As soon as Pei Guiqing finished speaking, he heard the sound of the iron grid breaking.When the guards turned their heads, they saw that the tiger had already escaped from the cage, and the broken iron bars passed through its legs, but the other end seemed to be unaware of it, and leaped forward with all its might, trampling the two guards with its sharp claws. fell to the ground.

The head of the family picked up the knife and was about to cut it down, but unexpectedly, he saw nothing with the knife. The tiger's bloody mouth easily bit off the long knife, and then swung its claws to pull three bloodstains on the head's chest. Pei Guiqing in a wheelchair.

Scarlet and frightening eyes stared at Pei Guiqing without turning away.Behind Pei Guiqing, Qu Xi's face was already pale with fright, Pei Guiqing just moved his sleeve robe, frowning but completely fearless.

If Ye Junqian hadn't happened to appear at that moment to save the scene, Pei Guiqing would have chosen to do it himself.Just when Bingzhi's fingers were about to stretch out the black robe, a long golden light appeared horizontally in front of him, and a hole was drawn on the tiger's claw, which was retracted with the splash of blood, followed by the sound of the heavy sword whistling.

"Junqian wait a minute, we can't kill this tiger." Pei Guiqing leaned forward and opened his mouth to shout.

Hearing the sound, Ye Junqian withdrew his sword immediately, turned the epee with his backhand, and sent out the end of the hilt. The thunderous weight hit the side of the tiger. The mad tiger was immediately sent flying several feet away, and passed out.Ye Junqian landed on the ground, put the epee behind his back, went forward to help the fallen guard, and walked to Pei Guiqing's side.

"Sir, are you not hurt?"

"You came in time. I'm fine, I'm sorry for these brothers."

Pei Guiqing shook the wheelchair and moved to the side of the guard, reaching out to hit the acupuncture points at both ends of the wound.Qu Xi then took out two transparent Gu worms with long and short fingertips from the small basket, placed them on the side of the wounds of the two guards, took a step back and blew the insect flute.

"Little brother, let's stop the pain and stop the bleeding for you first, and come back to Liefengji with me to bandage the medicine later."

"Oh, okay."

Ye Junqian changed the subject and asked Pei Guiqing, "Sir, why did you come here?"

"..." Pei Guiqing opened his lips, paused for a while inadvertently, put on a smile, and said in his usual gentle voice, "It's like this, the medicinal materials in the valley are missing some animal gall, I watched the war period It's getting close, so I came to ask the head of the family to see if he could think of a way, but the tiger suddenly lost control."

Qu Xi turned her head and blinked at Pei Guiqing for a while, but didn't open her mouth to expose it.

"What about you, Junqian? Why did you appear in Shang Beast Garden? Where's Ah Xiao?"
