Thirty miles east, in the middle of a forest.

The winter wind swirled, and the snow was falling on the leafless treetops, and the snowflakes were broken.

Jiang Cang carried two knives on his waist, walked on the snow over his ankles, and unconsciously came to the foot of the third mountain and a tree that the man was referring to.

Look up.

Divine consciousness through the snow that obscured the view.

Jiang Cangxu pressed the handle of the long knife and saw that on the big tree ten meters away, in the crack between the bark of the tree below, about the knee of the human leg, behind some snow, there was a '丨' mark the size of a fingernail.

If you don't look closely, the mark is too small, and the snow is pressing, so you can't see it.

Even if I unintentionally cleared the snow, I saw it, and this mark was like an unintentional grasp by the claws of a beast, and it didn't have any effect.

But Jiang Cang heard the man say before that this was engraved by Boss He, in order to prevent them from getting lost when they came here.

Because in spring and summer, the vegetation at the foot of the mountain is vigorous and the leaves are dense, which makes it easy for people to get lost, and then delay time and make the 'Taoist masters' of the exorcism gate angry.

Jiang Cang thought about it, realized that there was no danger, and walked to the tree again.

As soon as it was cleared, the end of the sign was slightly curved and ticked, pointing to the west of the road from which it had come.

But according to the position in front of the tree now, the 'exorcism gate' is in the southwest.

This tree, a bit oval.

Snowflakes fell from the sky, and a few snowflakes got stuck in the cracks of the bark, covering the marks again.

Jiang Cang looked back, looked at the southerly position, thought about it, took out his mobile phone, and when he saw that there was a signal, he dialed the landline phone number of Master Sun's 'predecessor of Bajimen'.

It's also just in case.

Although he has a double knife and has the characteristics of 'breaking evil', he is not afraid of any evil methods, and he is a ghost Taoist.

But knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can only get a little information, and it can also make better arrangements.

In addition, he does things brightly and never 'walks at night. ’

This murder and extermination, except for the 'big thing' of a sect, must be said.

Save the people of all sects and factions from guessing and guessing in the future, they are troublesome and suspicious, it is better to go to the end in one breath.

In particular, this is a 'cult', and eighty percent of them are good.

Then maybe there are other sects nearby, after learning the news, they can come and take a hand and deal with the aftermath of these corpses for themselves, so that there is less trouble.

This one call, it's all solved.

And at the same time.

Jiang Cang dialed the phone while walking in the direction of the exorcism gate.

In Fu Province, near the south, Bajimen is a small village.

The sky here is a little gloomy, and there are a few stars and snowflakes floating in the morning, and by eleven o'clock this morning, it has been floating for half a day.

But there was no snow on the ground.

At this time, Master Sun was sipping tea in the courtyard, leisurely watching the snowflakes in the sky fall to the ground, and the ground was a little damp.

"It's almost time for spring, let's have the next one.. If the ground is more infiltrated, I can carry a few buckets of water less."

Master Sun muttered to himself, stretched his waist, shook the padded jacket on his body, and the snowflakes that fell on it fell like floats.

This is kung fu has reached the whole body, and there are few people in the world who can compare to him in his own strength control skills.

But also at this time.

There was a 'jingle bell' phone in the house.

Master Sun listened attentively, drank the tea on the table, walked to the door in three or two steps, pushed it away, and the landline phone was placed on the table.

Especially in this year, landlines don't have caller ID.

Master Sun walked to the table, picked up the microphone, I really don't know who called, and asked the question: "Are you?" ”

"Jiang Cang."

Heavy snow was falling.

Jiang Cang made three phone calls and connected, and stood in place without moving.

"Is it snowing in Master Sun?"

"It's been sporadic all morning." When Master Sun heard that it was Jiang Cang, he said with a smile and respect: "Master Jiang, is it snowing for you?" Have you eaten? ”

"I'm in another province, and it's snowing here." Jiang Cang replied with a smile: "I have also eaten the meal, and I am walking in circles." I suddenly wanted to ask Master Sun, you told me about the Exorcism Gate before. I'd like to hear it again this time. ”

"Master Jiang asked what this cult is for?" Master Sun asked rhetorically, sat on the bench, told the truth without concealment, and said with some scorn: "There is just a group of evil Taoists in this exorcism gate. Every day, under the banner of searching for the 'innate nature', he kills people to refine souls and treasures, and has been hunted down and killed by the Taoist masters of the Maoshan faction for hundreds of years."

When Master Sun said this, he sighed a little that time was too fast.

At the same time, he continued to lower his voice and said, "But in this situation, all the sects and factions don't know which mountain crevice the exorcism gate is hiding, and they dare not see people. Otherwise, with what they do on weekdays, they don't have to be hanged by the Maoshan Dao Chiefs, and they would have been cleared by the people above! ”

"Can't find their place?" Jiang Cang asked, curious: "People from various sects and sects have such a lot of power combined, why can't they be found?" Jiang Cang was a little curious, not knowing whether this question should be asked or not. If there is any privacy involved, it will be assumed that Jiang Cang didn't say it, you didn't listen, and I didn't ask. ”

"There's no privacy." Master Sun shook his head, "Actually, we have also searched and found some of their footholds. But even if they found them, or someone from a sect on weekdays, they met someone from the Exorcism Sect. But this.."

Master Sun said, a little helpless, but also a little realistic, "But all the sects and factions are selfish, who doesn't want to take this risk, fight the tiger and not die, offend these evil Taoists, and the last ones who are injured are their own disciples.. Including our Baji Sect, I don't want my disciples to take risks."

"It's a fact." Jiang Cang was noncommittal, and he could understand that this 'good old man' deserved it, let alone that this was really a 'kill when he said he would kill'.

It's not the usual thugs who say, 'You wait, I'll kill you', and finally meet someone to call someone, at most kick a few feet.

It's not the same nature, and no one wants their descendants to take risks.

"Master Jiang asks this well.." When Master Sun heard that the great master Master Jiang suddenly cared so much about the Exorcism Gate, he heard this voice, and asked one more question.

I thought that the short-eyed exorcism door had inadvertently provoked Jiang Cang.

"I'm on my way over there." Jiang Cang had nothing to hide, "What sects are nearby near Lianghe Town in the Western Province?" ”

"Lianghe Town?" Master Sun thought left and right, and said, "Nanfengmen is in the province over there, and Lianghe Town should not be far from them. ”

Master Sun said, and then asked, "What does Master Jiang mean? Where is the Exorcism Gate in Lianghe Town? Master Jiang is going to go to that cult? ”

"I owe a favor to one man, and I have a grudge against another family." Jiang Cang walked forward, and when he saw the third mountain two hundred meters to the south, he paused and continued: "This is convenient, I will come to the Spirit Gate and clear them all." You're just right, depending on what you mean and have some dealings with Nanfengmen. Then please tell Nanfengmen, I, Jiang Cang, helped them pull out a nail, so if they have the heart, they will sew up this nail. Settle my aftermath. ”

"They absolutely do!" When Master Sun heard that Master Jiang was going to the Spirit Exorcism Gate, he rushed together, "Why don't you wait, I'll let them find someone to meet you?" After all, there are more strange methods of the exorcism, there are more people, and it is safer. And I think that if Nanfeng Gate hears the Exorcism Gate tied up on their territory, and hears Master Jiang coming to help them, as long as I tell them about Master Jiang's martial arts, they will definitely come to help you non-stop, remove this thorn in the eye, and then get acquainted with each other by the way."

"At this point, this day, the road is not easy to walk, and I do things quickly." Jiang Cang touched the scabbard of the long knife with his left hand, "I won't wait for them." Let them come now. Come to the east of the forest thirty-two miles, go to the southwest, the third hill. Just take care of the aftermath. ”

"Master Jiang.." Master Sun was about to say something, such as being careful, or waiting, but the phone was already ringing.

Time.

Master Sun looked at the microphone in his hand, and did not give Jiang Cang back to the past, but directly called Nanfengmen.

It's better to say more than to do more.

And on the other side.

At the foot of a snow-covered mountain.

Jiang Cang looked up, and his divine sense passed, and in front of him were several small peaks that were half-connected, and the trees with falling snow were mixed, which could be regarded as scattered between these peaks.

Looking south, beyond the peaks, there is a river covered with ice, and the ice is covered with snow.

And this river leads to Lianghe Town, which is why the name of this town has the word 'river'.

Look at the mountain peaks and walk forward.

Between the two peaks, there is a gap that allows people to go back and forth sideways.

Jiang Cang clinged to the outside of the mountain crack, and his divine sense swept inside, and twenty meters away from the passage was a small valley, not big, about three or four hundred square meters, with long and crooked trees.

However, in the valley, like Jiang Cang, there are six untidy thatched hut buildings at the exit of the mountain crack.

They leaned against the back of the mountain and looked into the passage with the naked eye, and they could not see.

And in four of these six rooms, there are people in them.

Looking ahead, there were four people in the two rooms on the left, dressed differently, most of them young people.

One person in each of the two rooms on the right, dressed in Taoist robes, and all of them are in their forties and fifties.

This is also the spirit gate has always insisted on, there are not many soldiers, but fine.

There are really ten people in the whole sect of the Exorcism Sect, except for the four people who were killed by Jiang Cang outside, and now there are only six left.

The head of the house, a junior disciple of the same generation as the Taoist priest in the factory, and four disciples.

They have been in this deep mountain for nearly a year, and they are more than complementary to Boss He and others.

Specific itinerary.

Jiang Cang had heard Boss He say in the car, and he also knew a little.

It is said that the Exorcism Gate provides information on finding tombs, deductions, and protective measures for tomb robbing, such as giving them a few 'talismans to prevent the invasion of evil spirits. ’

Boss He and the others found the tomb according to the intelligence, went in to explore, and when they got the object, sold it, and made money, they turned around and drove the spirit gate into a few percent.

In this way, He Boss and the others are like the outer disciples of the Exorcism Gate, and they have been protected by the Exorcism Gate. ’

But it's not good to say, it's a money-making tool.

Because Boss He and the others were running to the death outside, the adventure in the tomb was terrifying, and it was not directly related to the exorcism.

But when you make money, you will have a blood relationship.

That's the simplest point.

It was Jiang Cang who asked Boss He, about the specific information and number of people in the Spirit Exorcism Gate, Boss He didn't know anything, he only knew 'make money and work hard.' ’

Jiang Cang thought about it, and did not enter from the narrow mountain crevice, but instead looked around, and the mountain peak beside him was twenty meters high.

When Jiang Cang saw it, he jumped many feet high, climbed the side of the snowy mountain with his left hand, and drew a short knife with his right hand, holding a card horizontally.

The tip of the knife was silent, like cutting tofu, and pierced into the mountain.

Hanging in the air, some snow falling beside him.

The palm of the hand is hard again, and the foot kicks the mountain, a few jumps, and the short knife stabs horizontally.

It's just three or four breaths.

Pedal to the top of the mountain.

The consciousness looked down.

The people of the valley have not yet responded.

It is estimated that even if they have traps, they are eighty percent in the middle of the mountain, and they never thought that a person could silently climb straight from the other side of the mountain in a heavy snowy day.

This magic soldier and skill are indispensable.

But Jiang Cang still found a few talismans in the snow on the top of the mountain, and two bells tied with thin wires, staggered back and forth.

If I hadn't had divine sense, I would have really stepped on it.

But now.

Jiang Cang saw that no one found him, so he jumped down, lost his strength in the middle of the mountain, and reflexively rushed to a disciple's house to break the door, blood splashed, only a slight sound of falling to the ground, without any screams or shouts.

But the disciples in the two houses next to them heard a strange noise, and they shouted, "Someone is coming!" I want to inform his master and uncle.

Available in the next moment.

The two of them hadn't moved yet.

Jiang Cang slammed open the door, and they only saw a black shadow, wind and snow, and knife light, and they were no longer conscious.

But the killing of four people in a row, the breaking of the door, and the strange sound of breaking the door still echoed in the valley.

I believe that the seniors of those two sects know about it.

'Click' and then fell to the ground with the corpse in the house.

As soon as Jiang Cang went out, he saw a Taoist priest in front of the gate in the valley without any words, and with a wave of his hand, a black shadow struck, dispersing the falling snow in the middle.

And between its faint contact with the snow, there is a 'snort' sound, passing through the body, like a breeze.

Jiang Cang saw it, the long knife was unsheathed, and the short knife was protected in front of him, accompanied by a 'bang', like a snake hissing, the long knife passed, and the black shadow became two sections, twisted one again, and turned into black smoke and drifted away.

'Poof' blood splattered.

The Taoist priest also opened his eyes wide, and all the talismans in his hands fell into the snow.

"Is it a magic weapon?!"

With a sound of horror tinged with astonishment.

In front of the door twenty meters away, the last remaining head of the Exorcism Sect saw Jiang Cang's skills, and after seeing that he still had magic weapons in his hands, he didn't even think about it, so he reflexively ran towards the mountain crack!

But as soon as Jiang Cang rose and fell, he stood in front of him, with a long knife on his neck.

"Kill you, the account is settled." Jiang Cang looked at him, "We have a grudge." ”

"What's the enmity?" The head took a deep breath, "Are you the righteous Taoist priest of Maoshan and Kunlun?" ”

"Perhaps." Jiang Cang shook his head, "It's not." It's just a traveler looking for martial arts, and the Quartet can learn from it, which can't compare to your century-old heritage. ”

"What heritage?" The head of the sect may not have seen that Jiang Cang would not let him go, but he sneered, and showed an expression of dedication to righteousness, "All the sects, all the people on the rivers and lakes, are all eating and waiting for death!" There are seventy-five sects and thousands of museums. Only I, the Exorcist Sect, has been thinking about a way, thinking about how to reproduce the glory of my predecessors! ”

"Is it to practice with human life? Kill people and refine souls, and feed your gods? Jiang Cang asked rhetorically, "They said that you are a cult." should be killed, so you said that Jiang Cang is a righteous Taoist, perhaps, this sentence is right. ”

"As long as you practice, you're right.." The head gritted his teeth, glanced at the corpses around him, the red snow, and suddenly smiled again, "Maybe when we speculate on the 'innate law', they will really understand everything we do... It is we who have made the innate reappear in the world.."

The head of the sect said, looking a little crazy, or rather, all the people in the exorcism sect have always held a thought, and they have been clinging to the idea that 'the whole world is wrong, only he is right'.

In the eyes of these evil ways, any law and any human life are useless decorations.

Only whether it can be used or not, whether it is for yourself or not.

Perhaps only the 'innate' way will make them fluctuate.

Otherwise, they will not spend several generations of their minds to grind, perform, and cling to it as if they have fallen into the devil. ’

And Jiang Cang heard the words of the master, was silent, slashed, in the eyes of the master, saw a slight gust of wind flashing, his head rolling, blood accompanied by the snow falling one by one, like the last ink of the mountain and river painting.
