On August 29, Shen Tingyu had already traveled for ten days, and at this time he had already arrived in Jianning County, and it stands to reason that there were still seven days to reach Qingyue City.

Shen Tingyu was walking on a mountain road at this time, it was noon, the sun was shining in the sky, although it was not summer, it was also very hot, Shen Tingyu, who had been walking for a whole morning, was sweating profusely, and the whole person felt physically and mentally exhausted, seeing that it was almost noon, Shen Tingyu decided to rest in place for a while, and by the way, eat some dry food and drink some water.

Shen Tingyu took out a steamed bun and a bag of water from the baggage and ate it slowly, but when he ate a steamed bun with only one bite left, a voice suddenly came.

Ping Pong! Shen Tingyu heard the sound of swords colliding, and he already understood that there was a fight nearby, and there seemed to be a lot of people. So Shen Tingyu hurriedly stuffed the remaining mouthful of steamed buns into his mouth, poured a few mouthfuls of water indiscriminately, and ran towards the place where the sound came from.

It didn't take long for Shen Tingyu to come to a hillside, hiding behind a big rock and looking down the hillside, only to see that at the bottom of the hillside, a group of black-clothed people were fighting. No, to be precise, it should be a group of people beating a person, because Shen Tingyu found that in the crowd, there was a young man dressed in black and holding a blood-red long sword who was surrounded by dozens of people in black in a reunion, and when he saw that his sword fell, there would definitely be a head flying, and after a while, the foot of the mountain was already full of blood-stained corpses.

"Lu Qing, don't do any more useless struggles, you can't escape from the palm of our hands today." A man in black said, but before he could react, his head was already flying high, and his face was full of horror.

"Hmph, you garbage want my life too?" Lu Qing next to him looked disdainful, at this time his blood-colored long sword swung back, and a human head flew up again, obviously this person wanted to sneak attack from behind Lu Qing, but obviously, he did not succeed.

After dealing with this person who wanted to sneak attack, Lu Qing once again held his sword and killed the crowd, but just as he was about to kill, six darts suddenly shot coldly from the side. This surprised Lu Qing a little, he couldn't think of where these darts flew from anyway, and of course he didn't have time to think about them. He quickly pulled the blood-colored sword out of a person's body, brought up a blood flower, and hurriedly held the sword to fend off the incoming darts.

However, no matter how powerful Lu Qing was, it was impossible to resist all the darts at such a close distance, and after hitting four darts with his sword, two of them finally hit him.

Lu Qing didn't have time to care who shot the dart, because at this time, the remaining dozen or so people had already rushed towards him, and then Lu Qing held his sword again and killed it, but after he killed a few people, he suddenly felt that he had lost his strength all over his body. At this time, Lu Qing realized that the dart was poisonous.

"Hmph." Just when Lu Qing was distracted, someone suddenly slashed him on the back, and the painful feeling made him break out in a cold sweat. Then Lu Qing took the sword and slashed the guy who slashed him, and hurriedly retreated to the side.

Maybe he saw that Lu Qing had already begun to be tricked, and at this time, a man in black slowly walked out from behind the big tree on the side, looked at Lu Qing, and said playfully: "Lu Qing, how is it, how does this cartilage taste like?" ”

"Hmph, the people of the rivers and lakes value righteousness, but you guy is hiding alone behind a big tree, watching your subordinates die, don't you even have a little shame?" Lu Qing snorted coldly.

"Shame? Where does the righteousness come from for us killers? Lu Qing, you are still the number one killer in the rivers and lakes, but you still don't understand that the killer's vocation is to complete the task by any means! ”

"Hmph, that's what you scum do. I, Lu Qing, am an upright Jianghu person, and Jianghu people, even if they die, will not abandon the lives of their companions at will! ”

"Stubborn things, let me send you on the road, and finish off the number one killer in the rivers and lakes with my own hands, tsk, it's exciting to think about." The leader of the man in black smiled ruefully, his face arrogant. Immediately, he pulled out his sword and was about to walk towards Lu Qing.

Shout! Just as he raised his sword, a flying needle shot out, instantly hitting his throat, and before he died, the black-clothed leader didn't know how he died, and his face still maintained the arrogant look just now. I can't imagine that just now he was clamoring to send the other party on the road, but in the blink of an eye, he was killed by the other party.

"Hmph, you think you're the only one who can use a hidden weapon? Then you couldn't be more wrong! When it comes to secret weapons, I, Lu Qing, am your ancestor! ”

Looking at Lu Qing, who was covered in blood like a hell demon, and he also killed the leader of these black-clothed people, the remaining six black-clothed people were so frightened that they broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly fled into the distance. At this time, Lu Qing also fainted on the ground due to excessive blood loss.

Shen Tingyu hurriedly ran down to check the injuries of the young man lying on the ground, looking at the blood and corpses all over the ground, Shen Tingyu felt a burst of nausea, he didn't know why he wanted to save this young man, maybe it was the heart of the doctor, he couldn't see death without saving it.

"It's a little too much blood, then use Chonglou to dress your wound first, and then send you to Tianxian County, not far away, to recuperate for a few days." Shen Tingyu muttered to himself.

As he spoke, Shen Tingyu took out a heavy building from his backpack, ground it, and smeared it on the wound on Lu Qing's back to stop the bleeding, and then Lu Qing carried him to the river, cleaned the blood stains on his body, and then carried him to Litian County.

Two days later. Lu Qing, who was lying on the bed in the inn, slowly opened his eyes, he glanced around and found Shen Tingyu on the side, and said, "You saved me?" ”

Seeing Lu Qing wake up, Shen Tingyu hurriedly retreated, there was no way, the previous scene where Lu Qing killed a person with one knife really frightened Shen Tingyu, who had never even killed a chicken, Shen Tingyu didn't want to be beheaded by this guy with a sword.

"Hehe, you don't have to be so afraid, I'm not a demon, the people of the rivers and lakes value righteousness, you saved me this time, I won't hurt you in my life."

Hearing this, Shen Tingyu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It can be seen that you are very righteous. ”

"Why did you save me?" Lu Qing asked.

"Hehe, maybe it's the heart of the doctor, for the doctor, when the pot is hung to help the world, there is no visible death and no salvation." Shen Tingyu said.

"Haha, you're funny."
