Assault on the Nightmare Tower

Nightmare Attack Chapter 1

When Mu Xuechen arrived in Yangzhou City, it was the beginning of spring in March, the breeze was blowing, and the road was full of peach blossoms.

Three days of non-stop driving, although he was fine, but the accompanying maid, Qin'er, was unavoidably hungry, cold and sleepy.The two entered the city and settled down in an elegant tea house. Mu Xuechen ordered some side dishes, tea and wine, and took a short rest with the maid.

A few small dishes came up quickly, although they were not delicacies from mountains and seas, they were very delicately prepared, some vegetarian dishes were refreshing and refreshing, and some meat and meat dishes were fragrant but not greasy, they were actually top-grade food.

Qin'er was already starving after several days of sleeping in the open air, and several dishes were rushed into his stomach, while Mu Xuechen was holding a cup of tea, looking at her with a faint smile, and after a while he said: "Qin'er, look at you, how can you not eat?" It seems that I have just experienced a few years of famine. A girl is not afraid of being ridiculed if she doesn't eat well."

Qin'er didn't take it seriously, and drank another glass of sake, Fang said: "How can a servant girl compare with the master, the master's skill is profound, and he has the protection of true energy, so he doesn't feel anything after running around for three days. Qin'er is a mortal, and he does this every day." Eat and sleep in the open air, in a few days, you will really become a black girl after the famine."

Mu Xuechen smiled lightly, and did not answer. In fact, he was not unaware of hunger, cold and warmth. It was because he had been studying the secret technique of the center of the Nightmare Palace for the past few months.

He picked up the jug and poured a glass of sake for Qin'er.Turning his head slightly, he found that a big man in black was secretly talking with the innkeeper behind the wooden ladder of the inn. not simple.

"Qin'er." Mu Xuechen said lightly. "What do you think the big man in black is from?"

Qin'er turned her head to look at it, and after a while, she looked at Mu Xuechen and said, "If you don't look well, it's either adultery or robbery."

Mu Xuechen smiled and nodded.He condensed his mind and secretly practiced his mind.After a while, he closed his eyes, condensed all the sensory abilities of the five senses to his ears, and amplified the sense of hearing.He was very interested to hear what the man was talking to the innkeeper.

After the hearing was amplified, Mu Xuechen felt that his ears were very noisy, and he could even hear the sound of Qin'er chewing vegetable leaves.He chased after the sound source, and finally heard the secret that the two were talking about.

"Boss." The person who spoke should be the big man in black. "He will settle down here within a stick of incense. I want to ask the boss to kill him with snake beads. This is 500 taels of silver, which is regarded as a deposit."

"The snake bead will be poisoned in seven days. At that time, please bring the remaining taels of silver."

The two talked so far, and there was no further text.Mu Xuechen heard the heavy steps of the big man going out, and knew that he was gone.Then he also accepted the mental method, restored the rest of the senses, and opened his eyes.

After opening his eyes, Qin'er was holding the jug and drinking heartily, and Mu Xuechen smiled slightly, but there was nothing he could do.

It's just... Who are the big man in black and the innkeeper trying to hurt?

If it's just ordinary poisoning, then that's fine, the grievances and grievances in the world are not something he, Mu Xuechen, is willing to take care of, but why did he have to use those seven days to kill him? Snake beads?Although this snake bead is quite famous in Jianghu, it is actually extremely rare, it was refined by the voodoo girls of Miaojiang, very few people can get it, even if they go to Miaojiang to seek it, it will cost a thousand taels of gold.

Could it be that there is some serious quarrel between this big man in black and that man?

Mu Xuechen shook his head, the world is too chaotic, and there are some things that he doesn't want to delve into.However, he really wanted to see what the snake bead would look like when it was poisoned, whether it would be like the rumors, making people feel like a bone attached to a maggot, life would be worse than death.

I heard the big man in black say that the person who is going to be poisoned will settle down here after a stick of incense.

Well, just wait.

Mu Xuechen smiled faintly, poured another cup of tea for himself, and then greeted Xiao Er, asking him to put away all the messy plates and dishes on the table for Qin'er to eat, and ordered some Yangzhou specialty incense Waxy and sweet.

After burning an incense stick, a man in a green shirt really came into the teahouse.

As far as Mu Xuechen is concerned, it's not that he has never seen a handsome and beautiful woman. In the Nightmare Palace, the owner of the palace is cold, beautiful and suave, and the two guardians are like heaven and man.But among the men he saw, there was no one like the man in the green shirt. He was so righteous and awe-inspiring with a bit of a dandy look, and his majestic and stern look was mixed with a bit of elegance.Green shirt and white clothes, unrestrained and unrestrained like the wind, with a cold face and black hair, full of determination and determination.

This look is really the appearance of those so-called upright people.

Mu Xuechen took a sip of his tea and sighed softly.It would be a pity if such a person died like this.

However, he could see that the man had extraordinary martial arts and extremely deep internal energy.His footwork is very stable, which shows that he is also very good at lightness kung fu.Looking at the black long sword pinned to his waist, one can tell that he should be a swordsman, and he is also a good swordsman.

Mu Xuechen turned his head to look at the owner of the inn, only to see that the owner really sneaked in the corner and poured something from the spout of the teapot, it should be the fine powder made by grinding the snake bead poison pill.He turned his head to look at the man in the green shirt again, and saw that the man was not aware of anything unusual, and was looking out of the window with a calm expression, not sure if he was looking at the people passing by on the road, or at the enchanting scenery in early spring.

If there is no accident, that person will drink the pot of tea with some ingredients.

"Lord, what are you looking at?" Qin'er said.

"I'm watching people there." Mu Xuechen said lightly. "If that person drinks the tea for a while, he will die after seven days."

"Which one?" Qin'er was quite curious, and followed Mu Xuechen's gaze.Waiting to see that person, Qin'er looked at it carefully for a while, then turned around and said: "Lord, do you know who that person is?"

Mu Xuechen shook his head. He has practiced martial arts in closed doors all year round, and he never knew much about the affairs of the Jianghu.It was precisely because of his obscurity that the palace lord sent Qin'er, who was mediocre in martial arts but well-informed, to him.Qin'er was born in the Shuke school, which is a school that records the famous people in Jianghu and their sizes in the annals of Jianghu history. Everyone in the school is talented and knowledgeable.From the heroes and famous officials in the Jianghu to the overlords on the Caomang Mountains, scholar disciples will recognize them all.

Now, since Qin'er recognizes who that man is, could it be that this man is a famous person in the world?

Now, Mu Xuechen felt a little interested. He looked at Qin'er and said with a smile, "Who is that person?"

"I don't even know this person, the landlord, you really don't have any news, I can save myself." Qin'er said. "That person is the eldest disciple of the current martial arts leader Chu Xichen, and the candidates for the next martial arts leader—Gu, Jing, and Yan."

"Gu Jingyan?" Mu Xuechen asked with raised eyebrows. "I know this name, isn't it the eldest disciple of the leader of the martial arts, and the prospective successor of the next leader. However, I heard that Gu Jingyan is a low-key person and rarely attends major events in the martial arts, so few people recognize him, so how can you recognize him? he?"

Qin'er smiled brightly, and said: "Lord, you underestimate the disciples of the scholar family. Since we are going to write the history of martial arts, we will definitely read the portraits of the heroes. It is not difficult to recognize him. What's more, Look at the red pattern of irises on the neckline of that man's blue shirt, which is the symbol of the Martial Arts League, and look at the three green leaves engraved on his hairpin, which are the engraved patterns of Chu Xichen's acceptance of disciples. What's more, The black long sword at the man's waist was not a small one, and the scabbard was engraved with dragon scales. Cunyu Yaodao is a pair of fairy swords 'Dragon Color'."

"The ten-inch rain swords are in the hands of the palace lord, and the dragon-colored sword should be in Chu Xichen's hands, so how could it be in Gu Jingyan's hands?"

"It's not hard to guess. Now that Chu Xichen has the heart to retire and abdicate, and as the treasure of the martial arts alliance, the dragon-colored sword, the symbol of the leader of the martial arts alliance, will naturally be passed on to his disciple Gu Jingyan. This also shows that Gu Jingyan is already a The next candidate on the main board of the Wulin League."

Mu Xuechen smiled and nodded: "If so, it's really interesting."

Qin'er saw his insidious smile, and said: "Lord, what the hell are you planning? Don't forget, we have to go to Yangzhou to deliver the army record, that's the most important thing."

"How could I forget? It won't take seven days to send a military record." Mu Xuechen said. "Tell me, if I rescued Gu Jingyan when he was poisoned seven days later, how should he thank me?"

But Qin'er said: "If you saved him by such a coincidence, he would think you are suspicious." She paused, and then said: "Lord, what the hell are you planning? What if Gu Jingyan dies in seven days? , is the best. The Martial Arts League has always been an enemy of the Nightmare Palace, why do you plan to save him?"

"You don't understand." Mu Xuechen said lightly. "Perhaps the Palace Master never coveted the Martial Arts League, but I have always wanted to use it to play a big game of chess."

"What chess?"

"Seven days later, even if Gu Jingyan dies, someone else will take the position of leader of the martial arts alliance. There are as many talented people in the martial arts alliance as ants, no matter how you kill them, you can't kill them, and you can't kill them cleanly." Mu Xue Chen said. "If it can be broken from the inside, it will be the most fun to make those self-proclaimed righteous people in the Wulin League come to the fore."

Qin'er tilted her head to look at him, but could not agree.

"What's more, in the Martial Arts League, there is another treasure that even the palace master can't get." Mu Xuechen said calmly after taking a sip of tea. "That thing, I want it."

When the two chatted here, the innkeeper, who had done a lot of tricks in the dark, was bringing a teapot and a few dishes to Gu Jingyan's table.

I don't know that those so-called knights of the righteous way are less suspicious of others, Gu Jingyan took a chopstick of green vegetables and put them in his mouth without any hesitation, and poured himself a cup of tea.He moved so well, but the innkeeper watching carefully beside him was sweating profusely with guilt.

Mu Xuechen shook his head lightly.He could see that Gu Jingyan was not defensive enough.If Gu Jingyan observed carefully, he could still see the clues of the problem, but unfortunately he didn't.

Perhaps in this way, one's own plan can be better implemented.

Mu Xuechen stood up, and while Gu Jingyan was drinking the soup with his head down, a Ningxiang pill flew out from his fingertips and hit Gu Jingyan's sword.The Ningxiang pill was hit on the black iron and immediately scattered into dust, Gu Jingyan didn't even lift his head, and didn't notice it.

After finishing all this, Mu Xuechen didn't sit down again, he picked up the bag, and said to Qin'er: "Girl, don't eat, we have to hurry on our way."

Hearing this, Qin'er's serious and proud expression just now disappeared. She held on to the chopsticks and yelled, "Why is this? I'm not full yet."

"You've been eating for half an hour."

"The servant and the landlord just talked so much, and I'm hungry again."

Mu Xuechen had no choice but to force a smile and said, "Hey, let's eat dry food on the way, it's also very satisfying."

When passing by that person's side, Mu Xuechen pretended to turn his head casually, but unexpectedly Gu Jingyan happened to be looking at him.The two looked at each other, their eyes touched lightly, but suddenly they all staggered away.

At that time, Mu Xuechen didn't know that what he was going to do would be the one thing he regretted most in his life.
