11. Family letters

In the warehouse, in the face of Zhang Lan's persuasion, Shen Qiu nodded silently.

He saw that Zhang Lan's face was different, so he looked back.

Abed, the five-party protector who was restrained by the ghost shadow needle, suddenly had a dead ash on his face.

Shen Qiu's face changed, and he stepped forward to check it, and found that this Abed's heartbeat was extremely weak, and it was already a sign of checkmate.

"He cut himself off."

Zhang Lan stepped forward to take a look and said softly:

"The ghost shadow needle is not omnipotent, like this kind of tamping goods who are not afraid of death, although it is difficult to save yourself, but self-determination can still be done."

There was also a contempt and a provocation on Abed's face.

This reckless man seemed to be ridiculing Shen Qiu, don't want to hinder the Holy Fire Sect.

With the last of his strength, he was still reciting the Holy Fire Sect prayer, and Shen Qiu felt a pang of upset, so he stretched out his hand and covered Abed's mind.

The cold air gushed out, and through the copper skin and iron bones, the weak heart was quickly frozen.

It's like extinguishing the last flame in the heart of this Dharma protector.

Abed's eyes were no longer lifeless, as if his soul had left his body, and had gone to the bright world he longed for and believed in.

But Shen Qiu knew that he had not left this world.

His soul is still in the sword.

Shen Qiu didn't want to, so he didn't want to go anywhere.

"Give them a treat."

Shen Qiu raised his palm, and in the midst of the cold air, he said to Zhang Lan behind him.

"Call Xiao Tie in again, I have something to say to him."

After a short time, Xiao Tie returned to the warehouse.

After being treated by Dongfang Ce's Taoist True Qi, the burns on Xiao Tie's skin were much better.

It's just that his face is a little weird.

When he walked into the storeroom, the Holy Fire Cultists tied to it had all been destroyed.

Shen Qiu told Xiao Tie what he had just done.

The half-sized man frowned and said to Shen Qiu:

"Big brother, I don't think it's that simple, these five protectors must be the high-level of the Holy Fire Sect! That old man of peach blossoms, if he can send one of the five Dharma protectors to Suzhou, it must be a big deal. ”

"Hahahaha, Xiao Tie, you're going to laugh at me to death."

Zhang Lan, who was busy on the side, heard Xiao Tie's words, so she held her stomach and smiled, leaning forward and back, looking at Xiao Tie with a blank face.

The playboy laughed and explained to Xiao Tie:

"You must not be very enthusiastic about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and you don't know the joints, so you made a joke, wait for Young Master Ben to explain it to you.

These five protectors are indeed the backbone of the Holy Fire Sect, but there are not only five people.

The Five Protectors are just a pronoun, it refers to the masters of the Holy Fire Sect, according to the news circulating in the rivers and lakes, the number of the Five Protectors of the Holy Fire Sect should be at least fifteen or more. ”

"But those decent messages are long outdated."

Zhang Lan pursed his lips disapprenously, he shook his fan, and said with a smug face:

"As early as when Young Master Ben left the Western Regions, there were already twenty-two Dharma Protectors of the Holy Fire Sect.

Except for the strongest seven people who guard the Holy Volcano Altar all year round, the remaining fifteen people are all walking in the small country of the Western Regions, preaching the Holy Fire Doctrine.

This Abed was one of the fifteen.

This rammer is a fanatical madman, a complete madman, who once slaughtered a small city in the Western Regions, only because the lord of the city, who believed in Buddhism, was unwilling to submit to the teachings of the Holy Fire. ”

Listening to these words, Shen Qiu and Xiao Tiemian looked at each other.

Indeed, Shen Qiu was actually the same as Xiao Tie, thinking that the Five Directions Protector was referring to five people.

Although he goes to the rivers and lakes, he really doesn't care about the secrets of the rivers and lakes, and he is not as enthusiastic as Qingqing.

He naturally didn't know about these knowledge points in the Western Regions.

"Twenty-two land list masters?"

Xiao Tie glanced at Abed, who was no longer alive, and he exclaimed:

"How can this Holy Fire Cult be so strong?"

"So, you Xiaotie, your martial arts are okay, and your talent is not bad, but your vision is too low."

Zhang Lan put away the folding fan and said helplessly:

"Don't talk about the list of rivers and lakes all day long, how big is the world, just one list of rivers and lakes, you can see all the heroes in the world? This is too underestimated, right?

Let me ask you, Xiao Tie, has the Jianghu list included me in the Western Regions, as well as Miao Jiang, the master of Mongolia?

Has it ever told the world how many heroes are there in Liaodong in the Northern Dynasties?

Not to mention that among these various forces, there are unborn masters.

Xiao Tie, let me ask you, is that mustard master martial arts high? Can he be on the list? ”

Zhang Lan's words were like a series of cannons, and Xiao Tie was speechless.

I regret that the playboy is a good teacher, and he intends to bring the relationship between the two sides closer, so he slapped Xiao Tie on the forehead with a fan and said:

"Among the five sects of decency, among the seven sects of the Demon Sect, there are many unrenowned masters like Abed, Master Mustard Seed.

If you really think that there are only 108 people worthy of praise in this river and lake, then your brain is broken, and you will definitely suffer a big loss in the future. ”

Shen Qiu also nodded.

Zhang Lan said this truth, he heard it from Song beggar a year ago.

After Zhang Lan finished speaking, he reached out and patted Xiao Tie on the shoulder, and said softly:

"Zhang Lan doesn't speak well, but the truth is right.

As heroic as your father, he also warned us not to underestimate the heroes of the world, and one of my elders said to me that the motives of the rivers and lakes made by this hidden building are not pure, but they are a conspiracy to disturb the rivers and lakes.

It's a pity that everyone has fame and fortune in their hearts, even if they see through it, they are helpless.

Xiao Tie, let's use the three lists of heaven and earth to divide the realm of martial arts, but we must not believe in the list of rivers and lakes.

Looking at the rivers and lakes in this way, it is like peeping at a leopard in a tube, and a blind man touching an elephant, and he will indeed suffer a big loss in the future.

But don't talk about that now, look at this Abed. ”

Shen Qiu said to Xiao Tie:

"I just used the Mojia method of touching bones, although this Abed is not as strange as yours, but he has a horizontal kung fu body, which can block the famous blade and slash.

Being able to practice horizontal kung fu to this level, this Abed is also a gift.

The twenty materials that Ai Dacha agreed with us are the first ones we have found! ”

What Shen Qiu said was something that Xiao Tie had always been concerned about.

Hearing what the eldest brother said, Xiao Tie also had a hint of surprise on his face, those twenty people were hard to find, but he didn't expect that there would be something to gain in Suzhou.

"With the first, there will naturally be a second and third, and that's a good start."

Shen Qiu was also smiling, he threw his wooden waist card in the hidden building to Xiao Tie, and said:

"You go to the Hidden Tower, let them send someone, and send this Abed to Qingyang Mountain, they should also have a secret technique to preserve the corpse, so they don't have to worry about the corpse decomposing."

Be careful on the road, and if something happens, contact me with the waves. ”

"Hmmm! I'll go. ”

Xiao Tie turned around and walked out of the warehouse in a hurry, as if his steps were a little brisker.

Zhang Lan took the lives of more than 20 people with needles, which made him really not very interested.

However, this will stand next to him, peeking at the interaction between Shen Qiu and Xiao Tie, and he will also be interested.

A cautious person like Shen Qiu didn't hide it from him at all.

This made the smart Zhang Lan seem to have some taste.

"Who is Xiao Tie's father? Why did you send this corpse to Qingyangmen? You've also dealt with Adacha's rammers?

Didn't you get killed by that madman? ”

Zhang Lan was like a curious baby, he opened the folding fan, covered his mouth, and asked questions one after another.

Shen Qiu glanced at him, with a mysterious smile on his face, and said:

"You want to know?"

When Zhang Lan saw that smile, he felt hairy all over his body, he pursed his lips and said:

"Forget it, Young Master Ben is not interested."

After speaking, he shook his fan and walked out of the warehouse in a pretended manner, and without taking a few steps, Shen Qiu said slowly:

"Zhang Lan, the answers to these questions, you can't find them yourself, no matter how big your ability is, you can't find them. But if you want to know, tell me.

When the time comes, I'll tell you.

You're not waiting for me yet. ”

"Young Master Ben has broken up with his own brother."

Zhang Lan turned around and said sarcastically:

"You decent knights, all of you are just cautious, and everyone is on guard! You really should be a rare young master, you can't do it? ”

"Who told you that we must be decent people?"

Shen Qiu snorted, put his hands behind his back, and walked out of the warehouse quickly, ignoring Zhang Lan.

When he walked out of the warehouse, he saw Dongfang Ce standing under a charred tree, as if he was waiting for him.

"Brother Dongfang, I want to thank you this time."

Shen Qiu took a few steps forward, clenched his fists and said:

"He really deserves to be a decent chivalrous man, he has won a great reputation, and he responds to every call, and Shen is really convinced."

"Brother Shen praised it falsely."

Dongfang Ce laughed, he was quite free and easy.

He said to Shen Qiu:

"When it's over, I'm leaving Suzhou to celebrate my friend's birthday.

There's just one thing I need to ask you. ”

The Seven Swordsmen looked left and right, he lowered his voice and said to Shen Qiu:

"Brother Shen, where did you learn your Soul Destroying Claw, Cold Pool Duel, and Phantom Footwork?"

Shen Qiu's heart shook slightly.

This oriental strategy, the eyesight is very good.

It's just the kung fu of the first war, and he touched his martial arts, and the flower blue seems to be the same.

Disciples of the Great Sect, are their eyesight so good?

"Brother Dongfang, you ask this, don't you think Shen has an affair with the Demon Sect?"

Shen Qiu asked rhetorically.

Dongfang Ce shook his head, and he said:

"I also participated in the Suzhou War, so I naturally know some details, saying that you Shen Qiu is a member of the Demon Sect, I am the first to disbelieve it. Forget it, it's a matter of personal secrecy, so I won't ask.

Where are the people who are famous, how many of them have no adventures?

It's just that, Brother Shen, I don't care much about these things, but in the decent rivers and lakes, not all people like me are people. ”

Dongfang Ce said meaningfully:

"Some people regard the distinction between good and evil as more important than life.

And once a person has a reputation, all kinds of voices will sound, Brother Shen still learns some decent kung fu, even if it is a cover up or two, so as not to fall into the hands of others.

Those people may not be bad people, but the words of the heart are much more terrible than the swords and guns in the open. ”

He wiped his smooth chin, arched his hand to Shen Qiu, and said goodbye:

"Brother Shen, don't think I'm nosy, it's just that you and my sister Huiyin can't be rebellious, I grew up with her since I was a child, and I've never seen her so attentive to another man...

I used to be a little suspicious of Brother Shen, but in today's battle, I know that Brother Shen is also a dragon and a phoenix among people.

Sister Huiyin really has a good eye.

If Brother Shen also has ideas, he should take the initiative, and maybe he will be my son-in-law in Xiaoxiang in the future. ”

This was said more explicitly, which made Shen Qiu a little speechless.

But that Dongfang Ce didn't care, laughed, reflexively flew out, and in just a few steps, he disappeared outside the pavilion in front of him.

This morning, the pure yang hero has a lot of appreciation for Xiao Tie and Zhang Lan.

But he only respects Shen Qiu like a guest and communicates normally.

Tsk, it seems that Shen Qiu's ordinary appearance is really not his dish.

But what he said about Lin Huiyin made Shen Qiu's heart ripple slightly.

Now, though, there's something more important.

Shen Qiu glanced back at the warehouse behind him, where Steward Su was directing his servants to move out a corpse covered with a white cloth.

Seeing Shen Qiu turn around, the old steward, who still had a blood-oozing bandage on his arm, was also grateful, and bowed his hand to Shen Qiu.

Today, if it weren't for Shen Qiu's timely arrival, this Falling Moon Qintai would have become an adult ghost.

It's just that...

"Yaoqin..."

Shen Qiu narrowed his eyes, and he said to himself:

"What the hell are your secrets?"

In the evening, Shen Qiu, Xiao Tie and Zhang Lan, as well as Kong Wu and Kong Jian, the five of them returned to the Sumeru Zen Monastery together.

Qingqing was waiting for her senior brother to come back in Zhang Lan's courtyard.

Zhang Lan's four beauties also made a good vegetarian meal for their son-in-law.

Seeing Shen Qiu go home, Qingqing was relieved.

She sat next to Shen Qiu and chattered to Shen Qiu, with a lot of worry in her words, and of course some complaints.

"Sister Yaoqin came to the Zen Academy, but she didn't see me!"

Qingqing pursed her mouth and said to her senior brother:

"When I went to see her, she talked to me through the door and told me not to go to her, and said that she wanted to live quietly and so on, which was a bit of a gracious and denied it.

It makes me so sad. ”

"So?"

Shen Qiu also frowned, he thought for a few breaths, and said to Qingqing:

"After a while, I will go to see her, whether she wants to or not, and no matter what she thinks in her heart, there are some things that are too involved, I must ask clearly!

And Qingqing, you see that this Suzhou is really a group of demons dancing, I can't stay any longer, I'll wait for a few days, and I'll go..."

"Smack"

Before Shen Qiu's words could be finished, the door was slammed open.

Xiao Tie, who was eating vegetarian food, was also shocked by this movement and raised his head, and saw Zhang Lan with a gloomy face walking into the room.

He said to the four beauties in the room:

"You guys go out first! I have something to say to my friends. ”

The four beauties left the room very obediently, and closed the door with a very good look, and after they all left, Shen Qiu raised his head and picked up a string of vegetarian pills on the table.

While eating, he said:

"Yo, Young Master Zhang, this is a change of temperament and has begun to take the initiative to call me 'friends'?"

"Don't say strange things!"

Zhang Lan took a deep breath and took out the left hand that had been hidden behind him, and in that hand, there was a letter.

His fingers trembled a little, and he said to Shen Qiu:

"Woe to you, Zhang Chu is here again!"

"Huh?"

Shen Qiu's eyes immediately sharpened.
