Chapter 34: Snow Moon Lonely Turns Out to Be Desolate

Xingshuang left again, saying that he was looking for someone to compete, so that he could understand the casting principle of the Xingben Sword and the Dao nature contained in it, after all, he had to hand over the sword when he went back, and he might not have a chance to use it again in the future.

Even if you don't value it, the Zheng family has accumulated a lot of top magic weapons over time, the so-called top magic weapons are not only high-level casting materials with exquisite craftsmanship, but the key is that they contain some Taoism like the Xingben Sword, which can bring certain opportunities to users, which are generally reflected through the forging materials, artificial formations and natural formations in the magic weapons.

The Xingben sword has a natural meteor pattern on the body, not to mention the tenacity and sharpness, the speed and power are much stronger than the same type of magic weapon, and it also has a certain bonus effect on the user's body and strength.

Zheng Yan understood Xingshuang's mood, and also knew that what she said about "to understand" was not only to find someone to compete, but also to fight to the death, and it was really the case under questioning, Xingshuang also said by the way that it was not only those double cultivators and the Five Thunder Sect who were staring at Zheng Yan, but also some forces like Xiandumen who planned to send women to win him over, as well as the most troublesome killers, so that Zheng Yan could show some swagger, maybe he could really get a few national colors and heavenly fragrances, and also help her bring some "whetstones" over by the way, which made Zheng Yan very unhappy.

I rested on the post until the afternoon, seeing that the time was not early, I was not ready to leave, I swung around and beat two hares, caught two fish, came back and continued to stew, and stayed here tonight, and the injuries on my body should be almost healed by tomorrow, since there is a killer, I can't be so willful anymore, and I have to keep in shape.

While stewing meat, I pondered how to deal with it, will I stay in a guest house less in the future? Try not to eat the food in the restaurant? Yes, buy some salt seasoning and make it myself, the last time the roast chicken was just sweated medicine, fortunately, my physique is different from ordinary people, there are not many serious reactions, and there are also star frosts by my side, so it will be difficult to say next time.

At this time, it was already the end of autumn, and it was much colder at night, so it was good to keep the cloak I had bought before, and find a stove around the corner, so that I could spend the night comfortably.

When the sun was about to set, I saw a large lead-gray cloud rising in the west. Seeing that there was no movement around, he returned to the house and began to run the true yuan to heal, he stopped when he felt like it was about the same, thought about it and turned out the dagger and looked at it, Yu Xiuxian said that this is the relic of Xie Yanguang's ancestor, I don't know how long it has been passed on, it is said that it is made of nine mystical essences and Shura Yuan essences, and has the ability to cut souls and break demons, and it is sharp and tenacious, and can withstand the power of a thousand jun without breaking.

Zheng Yan took a closer look and found that the casting material was indeed just like what Yu Xiuxian said, but it was obviously mixed with other things, even when the cultivation of the human race was at its peak before the Millennium War, the two things of the Nine Shadows Xuanjing and Shura Yuanjing were not common, and their value was not small, it could not be just used to cast a dagger for self-defense or assassination, it could only be the remaining leftovers, and it was probably limited to the casting technique, which could only be made into a demon-breaking dagger, and the general True Yuan Shield could be broken, but it was much worse than the hand envoy.

Because there was no effective envoy formation, the craftsman who cast this dagger made a rough induction array, which was used to sense ideas, that is to say, as long as the idea is strong, it can be controlled with the mind after a little sacrifice, but the power is very small, and it can only be said that it can be barely controlled; Zheng Yangang stabbed a fish three feet away with the dagger after the sacrifice, but the fish calmly swung its tail and dodged, and stabbed the wood, and as a result, it fell to the ground, so it was better to throw it directly; at the beginning, he injured Song Qiguan's wrist by concealing the sneak attack in the mountain temple, but in fact, it was only a slight cut of the skin, and it was also by virtue of its sharpness, the reason why Song Qiguan lost the sword in his hand may have hurt the soul, Yizhuang Li did the same for Deng Xingjian that time.

It had the function of breaking demons and slaying souls before, so after the Xuanyin Bone King's sacrifice, what is the purpose of this new light blue dagger that is slightly transparent?

Zheng Yan thought about cutting his hand, the thin blade easily cut through the skin, a blood seeped out, it hurt, it could indeed cut the soul, etc., the blood was absorbed by the dagger! And the essence was also being sucked out of the wound! Under Zheng Yan's surprised gaze, the dagger suddenly burst out of a bleak white light, and the next moment a white bone dagger appeared out of thin air, Zheng Yan subconsciously cut off the dagger, and with a "poof" sound, the white bone dagger faded and fell to the ground, looking very plain,

Zheng Yan hesitated for a moment and picked up the dagger on the ground, sharp and slender, if you look closely, there is actually some crystal luster, there is a blood groove on each side, there is blood in the blood groove, this bone looks a little familiar, like the Xuanyin Bone King last night, thinking of this, Zheng Yan was suddenly startled, cunning rabbit three holes, this guy originally left a way back for himself!

Did you kill its spirit just now?

Zheng Yan gritted his teeth, pressed the white bone dagger on the edge of a stone, used the tip of the light blue dagger against the white bone dagger, and after getting ready, he put the previous wound on the tip of the white bone dagger, and there was no reaction after a long time, probably it was really killed, Zheng Yan's whole person finally relaxed, raised the dagger and felt that he didn't find anything unusual, and slashed with the blue dagger, but he didn't even leave a mark, no wonder, after all, it is the essence of the Xuanyin Bone King, and with two daggers to cut each other, no one can help anyone, it seems that he has got two good things。

Then I remembered the dagger that came black from the knife ruler, in fact, it can't be said to be a dagger, from the length of the point of view, it is more like a short knife, one foot and four inches, the back end of the widest tip of the knife is actually two inches, the shape is beautiful and delicate and symmetrical, not top-heavy at all, but looking at the shape and some machete meaning, the knife boring is made into a golden phoenix half-spread wings, the knife body is slightly curved, very heavy, at least more than 20 catties, and I can't see what material has any function, it looks more like a sharp and exquisite ornament used by those women of the family in Luoyang, not like a weapon or magic weapon worn by monks。

Zheng Yan felt that it was too delicate and gorgeous, a little too public, and he didn't care about it carefully, so he kept it in the package, and now he took it out and looked at it carefully, and found that the blade was actually doped with Taiyi fine gold, which could probably be invasive, and the imperial envoy was a little reluctant, it could only be said to be a good treasure knife, not a magic weapon, mainly used to do some chopping, stabbing, and cutting actions;

The scabbard is a black steel, the wood chips are padded inside, the outer bread is cloisonné, the filigree is not welded, but the lines are engraved on the sheath in advance, and then the filigree is filled, the Yin carved lines are narrow outside and wide inside, and I don't know how to inlay them, the lines are very mysterious, it seems to be some kind of rune, Zheng Yan has never seen it, the filigree is made of three materials: fire copper, lightning wood, and water jade, many processes are completely incomprehensible, very much like a craftsman showing off, and I don't know what the actual role is.

Zheng Yan thought about it for a while, pinned the "Blue Bridge" on his left thigh, pinned the dagger he brought out to his right calf, put the other dagger into the right cuff, and put the "phoenix knife" of the knife ruler into the package, I don't know how the knife ruler and Xie Yanguang would react if they knew the name they gave their baby.

As for this rope, it's called "Bundle Immortal Rope", I don't know what material, there's nothing to throw into the furnace, Zheng Yan has always been ignorant of magic weapons, that is, he learned a little bit of fur in Guozijian, but most of the Zheng clan people have never been very interested in magic weapons, and the Zheng clan people mostly pursue their own strength to settle the world, and they can't be said to be disdainful of external forces, but they don't want to spend time pondering.

For the current Zheng Yan to use such a magic weapon, it is still a little reluctant, it is necessary to use the sacrificial mantra, and the true yuan must also be able to be released, unlike the sacrificial "Blue Bridge" that only uses divine sense, this rope is a real magic weapon.

Thinking of the killer against himself I don't know where to feel a headache, the killer kills more unscrupulous means, what assassination poison attack spell, the haunting is their main characteristic, the world is the world's personal pain to them, when I was very young, I listened to the people in the house preach some ways to deal with different environments, but I have not been too careful, I feel that I can break ten will, the world's martial arts are only fast and unbreakable, as long as I am fast and strong enough, coupled with the reaction speed that is stronger than the average person, no matter how weird his means are, I can't help myself, as a result, now I am alone in the wilderness, and I have seen a lot of amazing methods of real masters, and finally realized that he was dangerous.

Thinking of the danger, he began to lay some simple traps inside and outside the house, mainly not to kill the enemy, but to warn in advance, and if there is a chance, he still has to run.

I was busy and finally fell asleep, and in the middle of the night, I was suddenly awakened by the sound of a trap, and I checked it calmly and found that it was triggered by a strong wind, and the yin wind outside was cold and cold, mixed with snowflakes, it was really snowing, and the house was a little cold, Zheng Yan used a fire fold to make a stove fire, and the "Blue Bridge" could no longer be used to make a fire, to be exact, it could only give birth to a yin fire, a yin fire that burned the soul, and could not light the wood and leaves.

The sound outside has not stopped, and during this period, there are still a few wolves and foxes who want to come in to avoid the wind, but Zheng Yan blocked it with a wooden plank, and finally they all whimpered and walked away, probably to the house next to it.

Unable to sleep, Zheng Yan simply began to meditate and recuperate until dawn.

When the light came from outside, Zheng Yan moved the door panel, and found that his eyes were full of crystal snow white, and there was a layer of fine snow crystals falling on the ground, as if it was a lot colder all of a sudden, and he was not ready to make food, but he just warmed up the stew left from last night and ate it and set off.

Not surprisingly, I didn't hear any news about the killer, and now the more famous killer organizations in Middle-earth who dare to take over the assassination of the prince are Yunke, a handful of water, and Mulberry Garden, Zheng Yan can't think of a fourth.

There are differences between these three organizations, I remember that the manuscript of the file that the grandfather let him read before recorded that Yunke and Sangyuan are known for their strict organization, under the elders is the leader, under the leader there are people who solicit business from the news network, there are people who are responsible for the execution of killers, and there are rudders in various places, and the elders control the selection, training and restraint of killers, the financial flow is clear and the division of labor is clear, and the efficiency is much higher than that of some special yamen of the imperial court;

A handful of water is different from the first two strict, it only has its own news network and people who solicit business, anyone can apply to be a killer of a handful of water, but to abide by some rules of the organization, in fact, there are few rules, killers through the organization to hand over tasks, the organization collects intermediate fees, and will also provide different quality and price of news for the killers under their names, the management of killers is more like the membership system usually adopted by trading companies, the more loyal to the organization to complete the task, the more efficient the killer can get more information and shelter.

In any case, these three killer organizations are indeed very powerful, even if they take this kind of job, they will send the most powerful killers, right? Zheng Yan sat in the lobby of the post house a little helpless, no one was not worried about being targeted by the killers, even those Heavenly Rank Cultivators did not dare to say that they ignored all the assassinations, and besides, who knew if any of the frustrated Heavenly Rank Cultivators ran to be killers.

There is a more elaborate platform on the side of the lobby of the post house, on which there is an old man with a seventeen or eighteen-year-old handsome woman performing the Zhugong Commentary, which has attracted the attention of many travelers, and the cheers are continuous, and Zheng Yan has also put down his messy mind and listened.

Zhugong Pingsheng is also known as "Zhugong tune", "pipa language", "Jiaofang Xiaoqu", it is said that it was originally created by a certain pipa family of Luoyang Jiaofang Division and a famous opera troupe chatting privately, one person plays the pipa and one raps the opera, and the song is mostly played and sung by the palace tune;

Zheng Yan knew that these were still in the country to listen to Ye Qingcheng They said, it is said that in the past two years, the Jiaofang Division has produced a strange woman who can calmly control the palaces of the north and south factions, and almost all the powerful people in Luoyang are fascinated, and the key person is beautiful and talented, just because he is still young, he is not obvious, and in another two years, he will inevitably charm the world, I remember that Ye Qingcheng was very serious and yearning when he said this, and the others also echoed it,

Zheng Yan has never been to the Teaching Workshop Division, and has always felt that the women there are quite pathetic and pitiful, most of them are from wealthy families, and they have lived a good life since they were children, but they were implicated by the family and became dusty women for a while, and they don't know what kind of pain the huge gap will cause to their hearts. I also heard that the woman's name is Shu Yuan, the embryo of the beautiful beauty who is said to have been rated as one of the top ten beauties in Middle-earth by a literary master at the age of seventeen last year, and the two-year-old Dongou Youlian Princess entered this list in the same year, and predicted that it will be ten in a few years, you must know that with the urine of those literati, no, it is a habit, and it is almost rare to rate a woman as ten in a hundred years, it can be seen that this woman does have a remarkable appearance, so that the fame of this woman called Shu Yuan is even more vigorous, or even more involuntarily。

The woman on the stage can't be said to be beautiful, about seven points out, she is better than being delicate and clean, like a small jasper raised in the boudoir, it sounds a little contradictory, and this woman feels really contradictory. The slender and slender jade fingers are particularly powerful when playing with the pipa, as if there is a copper pipa at hand, which is very sonorous of martial arts, and people probably like this sharp contrast, and the applause is mostly aimed at women, as for the lyrics, they don't want to understand much.

Zheng Yan is a little concerned about the lyrics, "Snow Moon Lonely", "The wind and snow and the moon are carefully savored, and the waves are fragrant and musical." The dream of success or failure is the best time, and the blue and dark are not in love", followed by the lyrics, sung by an old man The changes in the world have already been determined, I don't know how much desolation, it is simply haunting.

I remember the first time I listened to this song was taken by my grandfather to a wine shop in Baoyue City, where my grandfather shook his head while drinking and beat his head, his eyes were closed and his face was quiet, at that time I only felt that everything in the wine shop was so charming, but now I listened to it again but it was full of desolation, and I glanced at the old man again, Zheng Yan got up and left the post house, the killer has come, let's run away quickly.
