The interior of the room is very elegantly decorated, with a faint smell of sandalwood, and on the table in the middle of the room is a verdant pine pot, which is very carefully trimmed, like a floating cloud, like a pavilion. There is a xylophone engraved with auspicious clouds in the window, and from the window, you can see the endless mountains, and the scenery is infinite.

Shi Mingxuan was sitting on the wooden chair by the window at the moment, adding a spoonful of spices to the four-corner incense burner on the windowsill, he raised his hand to signal Jiufeng to retreat, and said to Bai Chu: "Those children downstairs have all paid money, and the children of the family who have just come to Jackdaw Gate to learn martial arts have seen less of the world, and they don't know the rules, so don't be surprised by the girl." ”

Bai Chu replied: "The last time we met, I remember you said that the Jackdaw Gate is a business that collects money to protect people, how can there be such a thing as charging to learn martial arts?"

Shi Mingxuan smiled and stood up: "You're right, we collect money to protect our employers, so we gathered a group of top masters in Yaskawa, and the fee to learn martial arts is just to provide a way for the brothers in the sect to make a living." In addition, not everyone has the talent to enter a place like the Heavenly Thunder Sect to cultivate. Therefore, Jackdaw Gate became their choice. ”

Bai Chu was not very interested in the affairs of the Jackdaw Gate, and after listening to Shi Mingxuan's narration, he just looked around and asked, "My brother, where is he?"

Shi Mingxuan shook his head: "I can't tell you now. ”

Before her father died, Bai Chu promised her father that she would definitely find her younger brother, no matter what, she wanted an answer, even if she went to the soup and fire. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth and asked, "I'll ask again, where is my brother?"

After hearing this, Shi Mingxuan helped his forehead: "You girl, it seems that you won't give up if you don't fight." ”

As soon as the words fell, Bai Chu's palm had already condensed a phaseless palm, and it struck towards Shi Mingxuan's chest. His palm turned outward, stopping in front of his chest, and the palms of the unphased were like cotton hitting a stone, and they suddenly spread out.

Immediately, Shi Mingxuan's body was like a fallen leaf, and he jumped out of the window lightly, landed on the Qingyan tile of the inn, shook the bamboo fan in his hand, and said to Bai Chu: "I said yesterday that you are not my opponent. But you can try, beat me, and I'll tell you. ”

Bai Chu didn't believe it, she personally slashed many thunder and fire masters, no matter who she faced, she would not retreat. She followed Shi Mingxuan out of the window and followed his figure.

Shi Mingxuan flew leisurely through the trees, his light skills were excellent, and after half an hour, his breath was free, but Bai Chu's forehead was already oozing a little sweat, and he almost didn't catch up a few times.

She yelled at Shi Mingxuan: "If you have the ability, don't run anymore and fight with me." ”

After hearing this, Shi Mingxuan fell into a clearing in the forest: "Okay, how about it here?" ”

Bai Chu jumped in front of him, his palm was like a swimming dragon, and he waved a dense palm wind one after another, but it didn't work in front of Shi Mingxuan. There seemed to be an invisible force on his arm, blocking his chest, and he dissolved Bai Chu's phaseless power as soon as he entered and exited.

In an instant, he had discovered three loopholes between Bai Chu's palms, and said in a low voice, "Offended." Then he took advantage of the situation, grabbed her right palm, moved forward, and hit her in the abdomen with his elbow, but he was worried about hurting Bai Chu, and this blow only came out of thirty percent of the force.

Bai Chu stabilized her body and took three steps back, she knew that the other party's strength was definitely not limited to just now, just because he didn't really want his life. She wanted to use the power of the Burning Bone Sparrow to meet Shi Mingxuan for a while, but thinking of the way the Burning Bone Sparrow was stopped by the wind wall in front of him yesterday and couldn't move, she gave up summoning the Burning Bone Sparrow.

She asked, "What do you want if you don't defeat me and tell me my brother's whereabouts?"

Shi Mingxuan saw that she no longer had the will to fight, so he knew that the time had come, and said slowly: "I want you to join the Jackdaw Gate and be my subordinate." ”

"You know who I am, right? I have the blood feud of the Bai Clan on my back, how can I be in the mood to join the Jackdaw Sect. Bai Chu clasped his hands into fists in front of his chest, "Since this is the case, then I will leave, I will not accompany you!" After speaking, the figure leaped through the forest, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Shi Mingxuan didn't let her go, her green shirt fluttered, and she followed closely, saying while chasing: "Do you know how dangerous you are now? The Thunder Fire Seventy-Two Road Assassins have been dispatched again, and it will be dangerous to encounter them next time." ”

She turned around and saw that she was chasing after her, and immediately increased her strength, and her figure shuttled faster: "It's just right to come, I just don't know where to find them for revenge!"

"You're no match for them at all, and if you do, you're dead!"

"What about life and what about death, if the gates of hell were opened before me at this moment, I would have walked in without looking back. ”

Shi Mingxuan knew that he couldn't persuade her at the moment, but he couldn't watch her die, so he broke the branch next to him in three with a flick of his sleeve and swung it forward.

The three branches sealed the acupuncture points on Bai Chu's back, she felt trembling all over, her internal strength, spiritual power and physical muscle strength seemed to have been lost, she lost her support in an instant, and fell from the branches in the forest, and when she was about to fall to the ground, she fell into a warm and thick embrace.

Bai Chu lay in Shi Mingxuan's arms, her consciousness gradually dissipated, and she scolded in a low voice before she fell unconscious: "You bastard......" The whole person quieted down in his arms.

The shade of the trees enveloped them, and her curved eyelashes cast a pale shadow on her face. Shi Mingxuan looked at her closed eyes, shook his head helplessly, jumped into the forest, and took her back to the Jackdaw Inn.

That night came back to her mind.

The rain didn't stop, and the house was full of assassins dressed in black, some on the roof, some in the corner of the courtyard, and some in the grass, armed with cold light and Ye Yeye's weapons, and surrounded their whole family.

The leader wore a straw hat with a red cloth at the front, making it difficult to see clearly. As he turned to the Assassins around him to give the order to kill, the lantern under the porch illuminated the eagle tattoo on the back of his neck. Even his sickly, coughing voice became unusually clear.

Bai Chu slowly opened his eyes, everything in his mind just now was just a dream.

The white gauze tent came into view, and she found herself lying on a large, soft wooden bed, dressed in a pale green gown, and the wounds on her shoulders carefully bandaged.

A figure faintly appeared behind the mangosteen screen on the side of the bed, and he noticed the change in Bai Chu's breath when he woke up, and said in a deep voice: "You are awake." The Seventy-Two Paths of Thunder and Fire Assassins have arrived, and they are searching for your whereabouts. ”

This is Shi Mingxuan's voice.
