Chapter 14: First Arrival in Jiuxing City

The moment the man stretched out his hand to Shi Ming, a touch of black instantly pierced the man's chest.

Shi Ming drew the knife back indifferently, and the man looked at Shi Ming with an incredulous expression, and fell down on his back.

"What the fuck are you doing!" The person holding Zhao Weizhu hostage instantly went crazy, and the knife on Zhao Weizhu's neck was a little deeper.

The man watched Shi Ming slowly walk towards him, roared, and the knife in his hand cut at Zhao Weizhu!

Zhao Weizhu only felt that a trace of warm liquid seemed to gush out of his neck, and his heart felt as if he had fallen into a bottomless abyss, "Uncle Gu, help!"

Uncle Gu was in the middle of a fierce battle with the bald man, and he didn't expect Shi Ming to kill that person directly, so he didn't care much, and a powerful vitality fluctuation broke out in an instant.

The bald man's powerful power shook and flew away, and he was shocked in his heart, "Heavenly Realm Overhaul!"

Uncle Gu pointed with his right hand, and a cyan vitality turned into an arrow, which instantly pierced the man's head, and Zhao Weizhu fell to the ground for a while, covering his neck and crying bitterly.

Uncle Gu looked at the bald man indifferently, he didn't expect such a situation to happen.

This scattered yuan water didn't have any effect on Gu Shu's Heavenly Realm's cultivation at all, he just wanted to see if Shi Ming could still use his vitality, and by the way, he could exercise Zhao Weizhu's courage.

And Shi Ming actually killed the person who came to grab the knife without saying a word, which made the person who held Zhao Weizhu fall into madness in an instant, and a chill rose in Uncle Gu's heart, if he was half a minute slower just now, Zhao Weizhu would definitely die here.

Seeing that he couldn't leave alive, the bald man couldn't help but be covered with blood, and his whole body was covered with a thick layer of blood mist, and his eyes became red.

Uncle Gu's eyes flashed, and he snorted coldly: "It's you again!"

A flash of blue light slashed at the bald man, and a bloody mark suddenly cracked on the bald man's chest, and the whole person fell to the ground, and his body was broken into two sections.

The bald man saw in a trance that Uncle Gu was holding a cyan short sword, and the next moment his eyes turned black and he lost his life.

Zhao Weizhu's neck was haunted by the cyan vitality, and he was slowly treating his injuries.

Zhao Weizhu turned his head and saw Shi Ming squatting aside, he couldn't help but be angry, and kicked Shi Ming to the ground.

"Why did you kill that person, you almost killed me!" Zhao Weizhu looked at Shi Ming viciously with a crying voice.

Uncle Gu hurriedly hugged Zhao Weizhu in his arms and gently patted Zhao Weizhu's sobbing body.

"It's all Uncle Gu who is not good, I want to exercise you, but I didn't expect it to be like this. ”

Uncle Gu turned his head to look at Shi Ming: "Shi Ming, why did you kill that person just now?"

Shi Ming scratched his head, just now he only had endless killing intent in his mind, and he never thought that he would almost kill Zhao Weizhu, and not only did he feel a little ashamed in his heart.

"I, I was only thinking about killing that person just now, and I don't know why I didn't think about Zhao Weizhu's life just now. ”

Uncle Gu looked at Shi Ming, who was hanging his head, and asked, "Is there a feeling of madness, a feeling that you just want to kill everyone?" ”

Shi Ming looked up at Uncle Gu with a stunned expression, "Yes, Uncle Gu, how do you know." ”

Uncle Gu looked at the body of the bald man not far away and muttered, "No wonder." ”

"This child is exactly the same as the young master's situation, he should go back early, let the head of the family think about it, maybe he can save the young master's life. Uncle Gu meditated in his heart for a moment, then stood up with Zhao Weizhu in his arms.

"Shi Ming, go back with us first. ”

"No, he almost killed me! He's a murderer!" Zhao Weizhu slapped Uncle Gu's solid chest.

A cyan vitality escaped in front of Zhao Weizhu's face, and Zhao Weizhu instantly lost consciousness.

"Shi Ming, have you ever wanted to devour your blood?"

Shi Ming nodded.

Uncle Gu looked at the body of the bald man, and Shi Ming followed his gaze as well.

"Uncle Gu, you don't want me to swallow that person's blood, do you. I...... I don't know why this is happening, but I'm definitely not a bloodthirsty beast!" Shi Ming looked serious.

"Twelve years ago, a mysterious sect suddenly took root in this area, and the people of this sect all used to suck other people's blood and qi as a way of cultivation. But this way will make people fall into madness, and over time they will lose their minds, and as long as they start to suck the blood of others, they will never be able to stop. Uncle Gu let out a long sigh.

"The most terrifying thing is that this sect has a strange poison. This poison is specifically aimed at people who cultivate Yuan Qi. This poison will make people's vitality disordered, so that the vitality and blood qi are combined, mixed with the flesh and blood of the body. The body of a poisoned person is unable to store vital energy, and the blood and qi will escape from time to time. Uncle Gu looked at Shi Ming, "As long as you can't absorb enough blood and qi, the whole person will fall into madness, and the blood and qi will escape and die." ”

Shi Ming looked startled, "Uncle Gu, I ......"

"You're in the same condition as if you were poisoned. Uncle Gu let out a long sigh, "After a long time, this kind of poison will forget all the memories of the past, forget your parents and brothers, forget everything, and eventually become a fierce beast without human nature." ”

Shi Ming looked at Uncle Gu's serious eyes, and his voice trembled for a while, "Isn't there an antidote?"

"We don't even know what this poison is now, and we only know the name of this poison through the soul search of the Blood Prison Gate. It is only after the appearance of this symptom that you know that you have been poisoned. ”

"Over the years, many people have been poisoned, and none of them have survived. Zhao Weizhu's brother was also poisoned some time ago. Uncle Gu looked at Zhao Weizhu's pink face, "The head of the family has been grumpy recently, so she just wanted to come out to play for a few days to relax." ”

"But it's strange to you that you don't go mad when you're fighting people, and your eyes don't turn red. You may have some adventures, and I think you can go back with me, and maybe you can find a cure for poison that will not only save your life, but also help others get out of the sea of suffering. Uncle Gu turned around and walked away, large and small packages floating behind Uncle Gu under the cyan vitality package.

Shi Ming followed behind, rubbing the long black knife with a sad expression.

Jiuxing City.

It was already completely dark, and the gates of Jiuxing City had been sealed, and those who entered through the side gates had to be strictly checked by soldiers.

Shi Ming stood in front of the tall city walls of Jiuxing City, looking left and right.

Shi Ming had never been to such a large city, and the town that he had originally gone to catch the market was already big enough for Shi Ming.

The tall city wall made of hard rocks in front of him lay in front of Shi Ming, and Shi Ming was a little stunned for a while.

"Uncle Gu, how did you move such a big stone?" Shi Ming looked at Uncle Gu with a puzzled expression.

"Aren't you tired?" Uncle Gu looked at Shi Ming and didn't answer his question.

"It's okay. Shi Ming replied with a serious face.

"Let's go, let's go into the city. Uncle Gu carried Zhao Weizhu on his back and walked straight to the side door.

"Master Gu!"

"Master Gu!"

The soldiers patrolling the gate knelt aside, Uncle Gu nodded, walked into the city gate, and several packages behind him floated in with cyan light.

Shi Ming was about to enter with him, but the guards indifferently stretched out their right hands and looked at Shi Ming condescendingly.

"You can't bring weapons when you enter the city!" said that he was about to take away the long black knife that Shi Ming was carrying.

Shi Ming looked at the hand stretched out towards the black long knife, and a wave of anger rushed to his heart, "Get out!"

The guards who were checking were slightly stunned, and when they heard a few sneers coming from behind, they couldn't help but feel embarrassed, "Damn little brat, you dare to disobey the ban of Jiuxing City!"

After saying that, he reached out and grabbed Shi Ming's neck.

Shi Ming stretched out his hand, and the two hands, one big and one small, suddenly clasped together. Shi Ming's wrist flipped, and the guard was in pain for a while, and his body turned around and fell to the ground, looking quite embarrassed.

There was a burst of laughter behind the guard.

The guard was quite annoyed, his body was surging, and he smashed his fist at Shi Ming.

Shi Ming only felt a fist wind rushing towards him, and subconsciously threw a punch.

There was a muffled sound, followed by a heart-rending scream, and the guard rolled on the ground with his right hand clutched.

The guards froze for a moment.

"Kill this cub!" the guards on the ground screamed and called out to their teammates.

Uncle Gu stood inside the city gate and smiled slightly, "Stop! I brought this person, come in Shi Ming." ”

All the guards bowed their heads and said yes, not daring to say a word.

Shi Ming followed Uncle Gu on the streets of Jiuxing City, looking at the long row of houses with lights on the side of the road, and couldn't help but sigh: "The people in the city are different, my village is lit by stove fires, candles and oil lamps are really unaffordable, and they all fall asleep soon after dark." This is called brightly lit!"

Uncle Gu smiled slightly, "Where did you learn these crepe words?"

"There was a very good gentleman in the village, and he taught me. Shi Ming remembered the scene of sitting in Mr. Kong's room listening to the story every night, as well as the crispy fried peanuts, and his eyes couldn't help but darken.

In a short period of time, Shi Ming has experienced many scenes of life and death, as well as so many dead people, all of which are clearly imprinted in Shi Ming's mind, making Shi Ming feel as if he is in a dream.

"Anyway, Uncle Gu is so powerful, those guards have to kneel down when they see you. ”

"If you're not as powerful, you still dare to hit someone. ”

Shi Ming lowered his head and touched his head, "He wants to snatch away the weapon left by my third uncle." ”

"In this Jiuxing County, Jiuxing City, the people of the Zhao family are the emperor, and I am just a guest of the Zhao family. ”

"Ah, the Zhao family is so powerful?"

"Although Jiuxing City was not established by the Zhao family, but now in Jiuxing City, the guards in the city are all the Zhao family's army, and the shop residents in the city all rely on the protection of the Zhao family, and what the Zhao family said in Jiuxing City is the law. ”

Shi Ming nodded thoughtfully, as if opening the door to a new world.

"If you can become a guest of the Zhao family, it will be a blessing in your life. ”

......

After a while, Shi Ming followed Uncle Gu to a tall mansion.

The mansion was located in the middle of the street, and the plaque of the Zhao Mansion hung above the tall door.

The main entrance is closed, only the side doors are open.

There were a few old men standing at the door, muttering something and discussing something, when they saw Uncle Gu coming over with Zhao Weizhu on his back, and hurriedly ran to greet him.

"Master Gu!"

"Master Gu, Miss Zhao, is this?"

"The journey was long, and I was a little sleepy for a while, and I fell asleep. ”

The old men hurriedly welcomed a few people in.

Shi Ming followed him into the Zhao Mansion.
