Jiang Ming and the three of them walked out of the northern city, all of them were angry, and they were silent, but they saw a soldier catching up behind them, handing over a wooden card, saying that it was given by the four princes, Jiang Ming touched the wooden card engraved with mysterious lines, and his anger swelled again, he wanted to crush this mocking artifact, but he finally held back.

He looked at Kui Xi and said lonely: "It is worthy of being a person who was screened out of the temple battle, after all, I lost the confidence to fight with it, and there seems to be a layer of haze in my heart." ”

Kwai Ji knew that he was angry, but he compromised in forbearance, and she was too, so she had no choice but to say: "This person is very powerful, if there is another chance in the future, he should be killed as soon as possible to prevent future troubles." ”

Jiang Ming stopped and guessed: "Maybe he knew my temperament early on and knew that I would be held hostage by this, so he first formed a brother with me, so that I lost the reason to kill him psychologically, it was really a game step by step, and there was nowhere to escape." ”

Mei Yuqi saw the gloomy look in Jiang Ming's eyes, and couldn't help but tears fell: "Jiang Ming's son, it's all because I have no confidence and affect my son's choice, if you don't take me, maybe your son won't be so passive." ”

Jiang Ming shook his head annoyedly and said, "I don't blame you, even if you didn't go, we couldn't escape the result of being calculated." After you go back, tell your father to teach the other four major families to raise troops secretly, until you can truly compete with Qiu Jue's existing forces, and then you can be regarded as having the power to protect yourself. Although he intends to maintain his image as a benevolent prince and maintain the promise he made to me, no one knows what his real plan is, and if something happens someday in the future, Jiang Cheng will definitely bear the brunt. ”

Jiang Ming had already made up his mind that after helping Jiang Cheng this time, he would never be involved again, otherwise the price of being coerced would be too great.

Just as the three of them walked into the streets of Nancheng, several of them were completely unattended by pedestrians, and the cold atmosphere made the faces of the three people change, followed by two black cloths floating in the air, like ghosts, suspended in front of the three people's roads, quite weird and weird.

Things have shapes, people are invisible, and the soul is a bell. Three thousand phantom bodies, a wisp of thread, true or false. Lingering, turning into wind, looking forward to Zeng Shenfei. It is expected that there are puppets in Shu, and the bonfire is also ruthless.

"Silk puppet, isn't that a kind of Jianghu magic, how could it be here? Could it be that the Prince of Qiu Jue wants to kill us?" Mei Yuqi wondered.

Jiang Ming threw a stone at it, but the stone went directly through the black cloth, silently, and fell into the distance. He frowned and said, "I think, this is not an ordinary puppet technique, the black cloth is an ethereal thing, in which the method of changing impermanence actually hides killing intent, this should be a killing technique." ”

Kui Ji said: "That's true, I heard the predecessors say that in the land of the three walls, there is a peerless powerhouse called the impermanence ghost Guan Jiuyi, who can manipulate thousands of doppelganger puppets at the same time, a wisp of gold silk can pierce the netherworld, and easily turn over the river and overturn the sea and drift in the river of blood, and it is said that the moves used are also learned from the skill of the silk puppet. ”

Jiang Ming read this name softly, and the yearning in his eyes became even hotter, and his admiration for the strong man made him feel high. He once said that he would make the people of the world bow down to him. This world should not be a city or a county, but the entire Yuanye realm.

As we all know, the Jiuye region is distributed around the three walls in the shape of an arch moon, but when it comes to prosperity and civilization, the creatures of the nine fields are no match for the land of the three walls. Ziwei Yuan, Taiwei Yuan, and Tianshi Yuan are the center of the entire world, and all the peak powerhouses have risen in Sanyuan, and at the same time, the Sanyuan powerhouses are also sheltering the Nine Fields Domains.

"After that, I should have gone to the land of the three walls earlier to witness the greater heaven and earth. ”

Kwai Ji said again: "The two black cloths in front of me must also be the technique of pulling the puppet, the puppet is true or false, but the silk thread that manipulates the puppet is real, if you can find this silk thread, the killer will naturally have nowhere to hide." ”

"Okay!" I saw Jiang Ming sweep his legs, roll up more than a dozen stones, and slammed forward, and the stones flew towards the two black cloths, and the black cloths fell to the ground without a sound.

Jiang Ming's back suddenly chilled, his palm bent into a claw, and he grabbed it backwards suddenly, and sure enough, another black cloth floated in the air, and it was directly torn in half by Jiang Ming. Seeing that he didn't see the so-called silk threads, the chill in Jiang Ming's eyes was even worse, and at this time, more than a dozen black cloths floated up, surrounding the three of them.

Aoi Ji exclaimed: "This person's skill in controlling the puppet is very superb, and every time he can remove the silk thread the moment you hit the black cloth, only if you are faster than him, can you break these black cloths." ”

Jiang Ming was about to make a move, but a black cloth appeared in front of him, and a sharp sword stabbed out under the black cloth, straight to Jiang Ming's throat, Jiang Ming hurriedly leaned over to dodge, and one turned over and jumped to the other side. But two more black cloths floated in, just like the move just now, on top of the sharp sword, there was an inexplicable liquid of transparent color, which directly pierced Jiang Ming's clothes on the shoulder. Jiang Ming was restrained left and right, and he had no weapons in his hand, so he had to retreat again and again, but when he saw that Kwai Ji and Mei Yuqi were also assassinated in the shoulder, he jumped up, grabbed the sharp sword stabbed out of the black cloth with his feet, and pulled it suddenly, and flew away in the opposite direction, just knocking down the black cloth in front of Kwai Ji.

Although Kwai Ji and Mei Yuqi both practice martial arts, they are not high-level martial artists, in the face of such a mysterious and unpredictable sword attack in the black cloth, it is inevitably difficult to parry, fortunately, Jiang Ming helps, but Mei Yuqi's back is also scratched, and there is a faint black visible to the naked eye where the blood flows, Kwai Ji exclaimed: "This sword is poisonous!"

Hearing this, Jiang Ming couldn't help but panic, if the venom was allowed to spread, maybe Mei Yuqi would be really in danger. Mei Yuqi smiled at this time and said, "Young Master Jiang Ming doesn't have to care, I'm fine, just look for a way to break the enemy." ”

In this dangerous place, in order not to distract Jiang Ming, Mei Yuqi can still disguise himself, and the strength hidden in his heart is enough to make Jiang Ming's iron heart tremble.

"Aoi, protect her, I will break the enemy as soon as possible. ”

Aoi nodded, her body was upright, and her fists were already preparing. For a moment, the sun was falling, and her eyes were a little too much to open. She seemed to think of something.

"Jiang Ming, I have thought of a way to break the enemy, find a way to lead these black cloths to one place, and I can help you find the silk thread that manipulates the puppet. ”

Jiang Ming's face was happy, and he hurriedly said hello, and then rushed up in front of a few black cloths, and at the moment when he was about to touch a piece of black cloth, the black cloth actually fell directly, but Jiang Ming did not directly contact with the black cloth, but just circled it, and after a while, more than ten black cloths also seemed to have become smart, and they directly wrapped Jiang Ming from the periphery, blocking the space for him to move.

But seeing Kui Ji take out a bronze mirror from his waist and sweep it towards the sun against those black cloths, the reflected yellow light instantly illuminated the reflective silk threads on the black cloth, Kui Ji hurriedly shouted: "It's now, seize the opportunity." ”

This opportunity was only instantaneous, Jiang Ming, who had been waiting for a long time, moved forward, directly grabbed the sharp sword stabbed out of a piece of black cloth with two fingers, pulled one of them out, and his body spun violently in a circle, and more than a dozen pieces of black cloth were immediately chopped off and fell to the ground. At the same time, Jiang Ming suddenly saw a slender silk thread hanging in the air, and was about to be retracted by a pulling force, but Jiang Ming seized this opportunity, grabbed the silk thread, and ran in the direction of the force.

It was a pawnshop with a closed façade, Jiang Ming kicked it out, and about a thousand catties of strength directly bounced off the wooden door of the pawnshop, and the two masked black-clothed men resisted in panic, holding swords and fighting with Jiang Ming who broke in. Because Jiang Ming had no weapons, he could only use his strength to fly the attacking sword, and at the same time use his body to dodge and create fists and kicks, but unexpectedly, one of them suddenly retreated, pulled his shirt, and a man in black appeared, this kind of magic-like change naturally made Jiang Ming panic for a while, but what made it even more difficult for him to detect the mystery was that the extra man in black could also hold a sword, which was equivalent to three people fighting Jiang Ming at the same time, and the offensive increased by more than one or two points.

When Jiang Ming suddenly snatched a short sword and stabbed it into a man in black, he instantly understood that it was only a puppet, and at this moment, the other two attacked with swords, and the attack gradually became rapid.

"I'm afraid this is the real puppet!"

Jiang Ming exhaled deeply, running the method of "no halberd", and the short sword in his hand seemed to have become his halberd, at this time, the fierceness and devastating of the halberd instantly exploded, directly smashing the three black-clothed men more than ten meters away.

Huge self-confidence overflowed in his eyes, Jiang Ming held the short sword like a halberd, and shouted: "Who are you? Why do you want to kill me?" A man in black looked at Jiang Ming with jealousy, and said through gritted teeth: "Your halberd has killed four people, and although ninety-five deserve it, the seventy, seventy-six, and eighty-two who went to take revenge have no enmity with you, and you directly ended their lives." There are rules in the door, and those who kill more than four people in the door will be included in the wanted list, not only us, but more killers will come in the future. ”

Jiang Ming immediately remembered the three people killed in the Lost Age Peak and the token painted with the number "seventy", and his face was suddenly shocked, and he said, "Tiangangmen, since you will be wanted for killing four people, why did the three of them do it to me before?"

The man in black sneered: "Ninety-five is a brother of seventy, revenge is naturally reasonable, murderers in the world are all heinous executioners, although you have no intention of provoking grievances, but since you have already killed, where can you have an excuse to escape?"

Jiang Ming's face was indifferent, and he was so stunned by these words that he couldn't refute it, and he wanted to speak, but he saw that the man in black pulled the black cloth, and the black cloth several feet long and wide suddenly covered the man in black, only to hear the shout and shout softly, "Today is your superior skill, but you will have to face endless pursuit in the future", the black cloth fell to the ground, and Jiang Ming had no one in front of him.

Jiang Ming seemed to hesitate, but when he heard Kwai Ji's shout, he was immediately frightened, and ran out of the pawnshop reflexively, only to see a clear shadow in his eyes fall to the ground weakly, and there was still a smile between his eyebrows, like a withered lotus.

Mei Yuqi fell into Kwai Ji's arms, her limbs hanging weakly, her eyes seemed to have a cloud of black gas surging, and her faintly black thin lips moved slightly, like a fish struggling in dry water.

"This poison is by no means simple, her wrist meridians are full of black gas, which seems to be suppressing her breathing, I have some medical skills, which can temporarily delay the spread of the toxin, but I can't get rid of it. ”

Jiang Ming grabbed Mei Yuqi's shoulders and made her sit on the ground more steadily, while Kwai Ji took out a needle belt from her waist, directly pulled up Mei Yuqi's cuffs and trouser legs, and pricked a few stitches with a very fast technique, and then directly cut out a hole in the shirt on her back, and applied three stitches in a row, but saw that the black toxins in the wound on her back slowly gathered towards the tip of the needle, and as Kwai Ji pulled out the needle, a stream of black blood was also guided to overflow, and Mei Yuqi's face instantly became much rudder.

Kui Ji said: "I learned some fur from a medical master a few years ago, and I know medical science lightly, and this acupuncture technique is only one-twelfth of the master's true level, but even so, the mysteries in this 'Huayin Nine Needles' still let me learn a lot." I guess you've heard the name of that master, white-haired doctor Liao Zhizhang. ”

According to Kwai Ji's expectations, Huayin Nine Needles can greatly delay the spread of toxins, so they still have time to find a good doctor.

"What! My daughter went out with you, and you actually let her be assassinated and poisoned by the sword? Leave my Mei family immediately, I will not allow a person like you to appear in front of my daughter again! Mei Kuan, who has always been gentle, was angry in front of the public for the first time, and the object was still the benefactor of the Mei family and Jiangcheng.

Jiang Ming didn't have anything to refute, those killers were originally coming for him, Mei Yuqi was just an injured person, as a father with only one daughter, it was reasonable for Mei Kuan to have such a subversive anger. Jiang Ming owed, a deep sense of guilt sank in his heart, he didn't leave, he didn't argue, just smiled bitterly, like a child with a guilty heart.

Kwai Ji seemed to know Jiang Ming's apology, and said in a deep voice: "Master Mei, let me say a word, this encounter is an accident, no wonder Jiang Ming." However, the poison in Miss Mei is by no means common, and please put Miss Mei's life first, and quickly invite a real doctor to come and remove the poison for Miss Mei. ”

Mei Kuan's expression changed, but the anger in his eyes slowly hidden, he sighed heavily, and said, "You sit down and rest, I have sent someone to invite the most skilled doctor in the city, and it won't take a quarter of an hour to get here." ”

A quarter of an hour, Jiang Ming spent in torture and torment, he looked at the indifferent Mei Kuan, and felt that this gentle middle-aged man had aged a lot all of a sudden, and he only thought of the saying "thinking of women becoming ill", and the self-blame in his heart was even more than three points.

Not long after, seven detoxification masters in the city, including Physician Lu, Physician Huang, and Physician Zhu, were invited.

At this time, there were only Jiang Ming and Kwai Xi in the hall, and the former muttered in a low voice: "You say, am I too ruthless?"

"Personnel are indifferent, the mind is sober, and they will not go wrong in a muddy way, and the real strong people are probably like water. Of course, if you mean this Mei girl, then it's really a bit ruthless. Kwai Ji curled a strand of hair with her fingers and looked at Jiang Ming playfully.

"But my heart couldn't stop. I have what I pursue, and I also have feelings that I am sad about, how can I say that I will pick it up and put it down? Even if what I have been chasing all my life is illusory, even if the people and things in my dreams cannot be touched, my heart is moaning over and over again, and I will not stay here. Jiang Ming lowered his head with a wry smile, his eyes were depressed and empty.

"Are you saying that this woman who boldly pursues her love will not satisfy you? Or is it that your heart cannot tolerate her?"

"What do you think love is? What is the other half that a person is looking for? I don't think she's the person I'm looking for, and I've told myself that this kind of fruitless thing is meaningless. ”

Aoi scolded angrily: "How can it be meaningless? She is just an infatuated woman, maybe she can't live up to your vision, but you don't even give her this opportunity, you are giving up the opportunity to gain meaning." You may still be thinking of Yi Xuanzong and Hu Jiangli, and regard it as your goal, and the heart in your relationship, but how many chances do you have to get her love? ”

Jiang Ming was silent, and there was a stubborn look between his thoughtful eyebrows.

Kwai Ji said coldly: "What you seek in your life is not for reason, and what you are looking for in this body is only looking for your heart." ”

Since it is to find the heart, where is the heart's desire?

The conversation between the two came to an abrupt end, it seemed that one person had persuaded the other, but in fact, it was just that they were showing the difference in their own ideas, Kwai Ji had been speaking for Miss Mei in the morning, how could Jiang Ming be convinced?

In the indifferent waiting, the first physician came out of the house, I heard that this is the doctor Lu of the medical family who is very good at detoxification in Jiangcheng, who has overcome many poison diseases and has a high reputation in the local area. Jiang Ming immediately got up to ask, but saw Doctor Lu sighing and shaking his head while carrying the medical box, avoiding Jiang Ming's gaze and leaving directly. Attitude says it all.

Jiang Ming sat down with a gloomy expression, and after a while, he saw a doctor come out, this is a famous foot doctor in this area, who has a lot of experience in acupuncture and moxibustion to remove poison, and is praised by the people as an immortal doctor. Jiang Ming got up and asked, but the doctor also lowered his head, as if he hadn't heard it, and left directly.

Jiang Ming's worries could no longer be concealed, he grabbed Doctor Huang, who was the last to leave, and asked, "Tell me, what kind of poison is this poison?"

Physician Huang said: "This poison is colorless and tasteless, but it is extremely toxic, the old man has never seen this kind of poison in his life, how can he know the name? Looking at Miss Mei's facial features, if she can't find a way to save it tomorrow and sunset, it is estimated that even the Daluo Immortal will be difficult to save." Unless...... Unless you can get that person to do it. ”

Jiang Ming grabbed Doctor Huang's arm tightly and said, "That person, who is that person? As long as he can come to the rescue, I will personally invite him." Doctor Huang seemed to be pained by the strength of Jiang Ming's hand, flicked his sleeves angrily, and scolded: "The head of the Mei family naturally knows, so you don't need to ask me." With that, he hurried away.

Mei Kuan sat down on the chair coldly, and said indifferently: "The person he said, his name is Xue Buyi, who lives in the bamboo forest twenty miles east of the city, and once went to the ridge to save an old farmer who was bitten by a thousand flower snakes. But he is not really a medical saint, he has harsh conditions for saving people, he doesn't want gold and silver, he doesn't want treasures, he just follows his heart, he will save it, and if he doesn't save it, even if he kowtows and howls, he won't save it. I have already sent someone to invite this gentleman, but my subordinates have already asked for it several times, but they have only been closed, and perhaps the chances are slim. ”
