Chapter 56: Sneak Attack
"Fireworks?"
The sudden abnormal noise also attracted the attention of Xia Fan and Shi Xiaofei.
It's just that after seeing the brilliant fireworks released in the sky, Xia Fan, who didn't know what he meant, didn't have much thought.
He knows that there are fireworks in this world, and basically every major festival, local governments or powerful families have the custom of setting off fireworks.
The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and blows down, and the stars are like rain.
Xia Fan has never underestimated the wisdom of the ancients, it is just fireworks, the ancients in the previous life developed it thousands of years ago, and there is no reason why the ancients in this world can't develop it.
Once upon a time, Xia Fan had the idea of entrusting craftsmen to build muskets, but when he found out that this was an abnormal world, he gave up this idea.
Is the musket useful against a warrior?
Useful.
But only if you can hit the other side.
In the face of agile martial artists, an ordinary person's miss means that death is not far away.
After all, the primitive musket is slow to load, more powerful, less flexible, and in the end, it is better for the warrior to lose the hidden weapon.
What's more, when martial arts are cultivated to a certain extent, muskets may not be able to cause damage to martial artists.
Anyway, Xia Fan is not afraid of the power of the musket now, even if he shoots with a modern submachine gun, he may not be able to hurt himself, unless he uses a large-caliber anti-materiel sniper rifle, or a missile bombardment, maybe it will be possible to hit Xia Fan hard.
The problem is that when the technology in this world has developed to this extent, Xia Fan has been dead for I don't know how many years.
Living in this dangerous world, practicing martial arts or climbing the technology tree?
The answer is self-explanatory.
"Senior, it doesn't seem right. ”
Shi Xiaofei obviously had other thoughts after seeing the fireworks in the sky.
"What's wrong?" Xia Fan said casually.
"Senior, do you remember where Senior Dai left?" Shi Xiaofei said with a solemn expression.
"Do you suspect that the fireworks were set off by Dai Xingheng?"
Xia Fan immediately understood what Shi Xiaofei meant.
"Yes, and the juniors still suspect that Senior Dai may have encountered some accidents!" Shi Xiaofei said worriedly. "Because the younger generation knows that many sects in the rivers and lakes will take fireworks as some kind of important signal, so after seeing the fireworks, the younger generations can't help but have associations in this regard. ”
"Then let's go back and have a look, we won't be able to delay much time anyway. ”
With that, Xia Fan turned around and walked in the direction of the fireworks release.
"Thank you, senior!"
Shi Xiaofei's heart was relieved, and he hurriedly followed.
......
"Are you a disciple of the Star Picking Tower? was the signal you sent for help just now?"
At the same time, Wei Pingzhang took Zhao Qingtong and his sisters to the scene as soon as possible.
He saw a man.
A man lying under a tree who could not afford to be seriously injured.
"Dare to ask Your Excellency?"
Dai Xingheng looked at the strange person in front of him with a pale face, his face full of vigilance and defensiveness.
"In the Lower Heaven Pavilion Wei Pingzhang. ”
Wei Pingzhang said indifferently.
"Tianshu Pavilion?" Dai Xingheng said with a look of surprise on his face.
"This is the waist card of the Tianshu Pavilion, I think you should be able to recognize one or two. ”
Wei Pingzhang casually took out a jade waist card from his arms and threw it to Dai Xingheng.
"It turns out that it's really Tianshu Pavilion......" Dai Xingheng took the waist card, and after careful confirmation, he hurriedly arched his hand towards Wei Pingzhang regardless of his injury. "Dai Xingheng in the Lower Star Picking Building, I have seen Senior Wei. ”
"Xingzijun, who is your master?" Wei Pingzhang said with a slight bow.
"The family teacher is Yu Hengchu, a native of Guanlan Mountain!" Dai Xingheng said.
"Yu Hengchu, the old man has a little impression of him. Wei Pingzhang frowned. "Then again, what happened to you, and why did you get so badly injured?"
“...... On the way back to the mountain gate, he unfortunately encountered a sneak attack by a mysterious person, and was caught off guard by the other party's palm, but fortunately set off in time to call for help, which forced the mysterious man to stop and flee. Dai Xingheng said weakly.
"Mystery man, do you see what the other person looks like?"
Wei Pingzhang suddenly thought of Xia Fan involuntarily.
"No, that mysterious person is well disguised, and he can't see the other party's appearance clearly at all, but ......" Dai Xingheng took a deep breath and said. Judging from the size of the other party, this mysterious person seems to be a woman. ”
"A woman?" Wei Pingzhang said in surprise.
"Yes, and in the process of fighting her, I even smelled a faint fragrance. Dai Xingheng said firmly.
"Do you know why she attacked you?" Wei Pingzhang wondered.
"Perhaps, she may have come for the stealing of the heavens in her body......" Dai Xingheng laughed bitterly. "Because the other party will sneak up on Xia until he is seriously injured, and then he will easily take away the Heaven Thief Decision on his body. ”
"Heaven Thief?"
Without waiting for Wei Pingzhang to speak, Huang Wan'er beside him exclaimed.
"You know the Heavens' Thieves?"
Dai Xingheng instantly realized something when he heard this.
"Because the Heaven Thief is the stolen thing of the Old Man's sect, the old man will appear here to pursue the Heaven Thief!" Wei Pingzhang explained in a flat tone.
"What, the Heaven Stealing Decision is the thing of the Heavenly Pavilion?" Dai Xingheng exclaimed.
"Hehe, it's been a secret since the Heavenly Pivot Pavilion got the Heaven Thief Decision, and it's normal for you not to know. ”
Wei Pingzhang's expression was calm, how could he not understand that Xia Fan had handed over the Heaven Thief Decision to Dai Xingheng before.
But now that the Heaven Thief has been taken away by a mysterious person, it is not easy to find it again!
"Who are you, dare to hurt my disciples under the Star Tower!"
At this time, a loud shout suddenly sounded in the mountains and forests.
Xuan even saw an old man with a gloomy face slowly appear in front of them.
"Master!"
When Dai Xingheng saw this person, he subconsciously blurted out.
"In the Lower Heavenly Pavilion Wei Pingzhang, dare to ask who came is Yu Hengchu?"
Wei Pingzhang looked at the visitor quietly.
"Tianshu Pavilion?" Yu Hengchu stared at Wei Pingzhang with an unkind gaze. "I don't know what important thing your Tianshu Pavilion is here?"
"Since I came to the Star Tower, I just wanted to pursue the same thing. ”
Wei Pingzhang said slowly.
"One thing?" Yu Hengchu said.
"Master, it's a thief! what they're looking for is a thief!"
Dai Xingheng on the side hurriedly explained in order to avoid misunderstanding.
"Heaven Thief?"
Yu Hengchu naturally knew about the Heaven Thief Decision, but he didn't understand what it had to do with the Heaven Thief Decision.
And Dai Xingheng quickly explained the cause and effect briefly.
"I see......"
After hearing this, Yu Hengchu's face was no longer tense, but after hearing the news of Cui Xingping's death and Shi Xiaofei's deliberate delivery of Cui Xingping's ashes to Dai Xingheng, his face seemed to have aged a lot all of a sudden.
"Who?!"
The next moment, Yu Hengchu and Wei Pingzhang both looked into the depths of the forest.
"I said you disappointed me too much, didn't you? I just gave you the thief on the front foot, and you let people take it away on the back foot?"
