Chapter 22: Change
Whose master would be idle in the middle of the night with a group of men who exuded a strong smell of blood suddenly galloped to this oasis?
So.
Even if they weren't sand thieves who robbed houses, they weren't good people.
But it doesn't matter if they're good or bad.
Xia Fan was very happy.
In the middle of a strange desert as far as the eye can see.
The appearance of the other party is like a long drought and a rainy day, which can solve many of his questions.
"You haven't answered my question, who are you, and why are you here?"
The masked man who claimed to be Meng Ke had a gaze as sharp as an eagle falcon, staring at Xia Fandao unmoved.
"My name is Xia Fan, this is my niece Zhou Xiaoyu, as for why we are here, it's a long story, friend, have you heard of Tianmen?"
Xia Fan replied generously.
"Hehe, if anyone at the bottom today doesn't know the famous name of Tianmen, isn't Your Excellency also a person from Tianmen?"
Monk Ke's eyes flashed with a different color when he heard this.
"Oh, is Tianmen so famous now?"
When Xia Fan heard this, the smile on his face became even worse.
"Of course, since the Tianmen came out sixteen years ago and gradually integrated all the sects in the world, now the entire Shenzhou is already the world of the Tianmen, and even the Great Wei of the New Dynasty is under the control of the Tianmen, why don't you even know these common sense?"
Munch's eyes flickered.
"Wow, did Tianmen copy all the overseas ones to Shenzhou? It's a bit interesting, no wonder they have transferred all the main forces to Shenzhou, leaving only an empty shell overseas. ”
Xia Fan smacked his lips and muttered.
"Overseas?!Your Excellency is from the Heavenly Gate from overseas?"
When Meng Ke heard this, his eyes changed instantly.
"Do you have any evidence of who you are?"
"This, do I have any words that say that I am a person from the Heavenly Gate?"
Xia Fan looked at the other party with a smile and said.
"Your Excellency......"
Munch's voice suddenly turned cold.
"Some time ago, I just wiped out the overseas Tianmen, and now I naturally come back to cut down the grass and eradicate the Tianmen, but I didn't expect that sixteen years of time would make the Tianmen develop to such a point, it seems that Tianmen has been planning Shenzhou for hundreds of years. ”
Xia Fan understated.
Since you don't want to say it, then I can only pry your mouth open by other means. ”
Meng Ke snorted coldly, raised his hand and waved it lightly towards Xia Fan.
“biubiubiu~”
When the subordinates beside Meng Ke saw this gesture, they rushed towards Xia Fan without hesitation.
However.
Xia Fan just raised his hand in the shape of a pistol, and casually emitted an onomatopoeia of unknown meaning at the rushing swordsman.
The next moment.
Before Munch's men could rush closer, they strangely fell from their horses without a sound.
"This man is weird! Kill me!"
Seeing this, Meng Ke's face changed suddenly and he shouted loudly, but he really turned his horse's head and quickly opened the distance between him and Xia Fan.
After receiving the order, the people surrounding Xia Fan and Zhou Xiaoyu in the vicinity drew their sabers and charged towards Xia Fan.
"Da Da Da ......"
However, Xia Fan gestured his hands into a machine gun shape again, and the "muzzle" was aimed at the swordsmen who were galloping around him, and all the swordsmen who were swept by his "muzzle" all fell off their horses without exception.
Just a few breaths.
There were corpses lying on the ground in front of me, and there was no living person who could stand.
And Munch, who rushed away from Xia Fan in advance, was no exception.
It's just that he's lucky.
Because Xia Fan did not kill him for the time being, but spared him a small life.
“...... Uncle, what kind of move are yours? It's amazing!"
Side.
Zhou Xiaoyu was stunned and looked at Xia Fan, who blew his finger "muzzle" lightly, and there were envious stars in his eyes.
All the way.
She didn't panic in the slightest.
After all, she had seen Xia Fan single-handedly destroy the Heavenly Gate.
"Hey, hey, when you reach the realm of uncle, you can do whatever you want. Xia Fan said with a smile. "It's a pity that the fun is a little bit not enough.,Originally, Uncle was still thinking about an RPG.,But the reaction turned out that the people were gone.。 ”
"Uncle, what is an RPG?"
Zhou Xiaoyu muttered the awkward words from Xia Fan and wondered.
"It's fireworks that kill a lot of people with a bang. ”
Xia Fan described with great interest.
"Oh, oh, oh......" Zhou Xiaoyu nodded as if he didn't understand, and then said with a distressed face. "It's a pity that Uncle said this, Xiaoyu doesn't know how long it will take to learn it in the future. ”
"It's okay, you're still young anyway, and the days ahead are still long. ”
Xia Fan rubbed Zhou Xiaoyu's hair and said with a smile.
"Okay, Uncle is going to take care of some business. ”
After speaking.
He reached out into the distance and tugged at the void.
Immediately afterwards, Meng Ke, who was lying on the ground and dying, let Xia Fan come closer.
"Monster, monster ......"
Meng Ke slowly opened his eyes, and looked at Xia Fandao in front of him with great horror.
"Come, look at my fingers, what is this?"
Xia Fan waved a finger in front of him disappreciatively.
“......”
Munch was immediately stunned, and his eyes fell into a trance.
"One...... No, two...... Wrong...... Three, four, five......"
"Uncle, is he stupid?"
Zhou Xiaoyu looked at the finger shaking in Xia Fan's hand, and then looked at the delirious Meng Ke and said strangely.
"He can make him stupid even if he doesn't have a stupid uncle. ”
Xia Fan withdrew his hand and stared into Munch's eyes.
"Next, listen to the question, seven monkeys in the tree...... No, it's wrong......"
Soon.
He got all the information he wanted from the other party's mouth.
It turns out that Munch is indeed a sand thief.
It's just that his luck is a little good, and he can barely be regarded as a person who has reached Tianmen.
He appeared in this desert purely on the orders of the Heavenly Gate to search and intercept some people.
And these people are the remnants of the major sects that refused to surrender to the Heavenly Gate back then, including even some people from the Demon Sect.
We have to start with 16 years ago.
At that time, Tianmen layout and planning Shenzhou for many years finally saw the dagger.
After the Demon Sect and the Cloud Hall and the major sects were defeated in a big battle, the Heavenly Gate suddenly appeared to reap the benefits, especially the many internal backstabs made the major sects and the Demon Sect unable to parry the powerful Heavenly Gate.
Less than half a year.
The Heavenly Gate gradually integrated the forces of the major sects and the Demon Sect, and even the Cloud Hall was annexed together.
But more details are unknown to people at Munch's level.
For example, the whereabouts of the celestial man in the Cloud Palace, and so on.
With the death of the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, who held the sword of the human emperor, the entire Great Jin Dynasty fell into a storm, and the Duke of Wei who stayed in the capital suddenly made it difficult to support the Seven Princes to ascend the throne, and then there was a confrontation between the prince and the Duke of Wei Guogong who was entrenched in Wanyang, and all parts of Shenzhou were full of smoke, taking the opportunity to expand the territory.
Ultimately.
With the help of the Gate of Heaven.
The Duke of Wei almost easily pacified the world in a sweeping state, and then forced the Seven Princes to establish the Great Wei Dynasty, and at the same time Fengtianmen was the national emperor.
It's a pity that Wei Guogong was assassinated less than two years after becoming emperor, and his son Chen Ji naturally sat on the throne, and the year name was changed from Jianwu to Yuanping, and now it is the eighth year of Yuanping.
When the Wei State fairly determined the world, among them, Tianmen even upheld the power of those who obeyed me and those who rebelled against me to perish and purge the entire Shenzhou rivers and lakes, and the large and small sects and gangs either surrendered and merged into Tianmen, or ushered in destruction, as a result, many sectarians who were unwilling to surrender to Tianmen scattered and fled, or waited incognito to wait for the opportunity to retaliate against Tianmen.
It is said that the assassination of Wei Guogong is related to this.
Therefore, both Great Wei and Tianmen have been committed to exterminating these unstable sect remnants, and in order to avoid the search and pursuit between the two, these sect remnants have to stay away from Shenzhou.
And the vast desert in the far west, which is inaccessible, is a suitable hiding place.
However, they underestimated Tianmen's determination to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.
Munch, a gang of sand thieves, became the target of Tianmen's selection, and was specifically responsible for searching for the whereabouts of the remnants of these sects.
Recently.
Meng Ke and others discovered a remnant of the sect that dragged their families with their mouths, so they launched a hunt all the way.
However, the other party used the strategy of diverting the tiger from the mountain, which made Meng Ke and the others pounce and only killed some unimportant people, but Meng Ke still refused to give up, so he chased him to the oasis area where Xia Fan was.
After all, the Heavenly Gate has never been stingy with rewards, as long as Meng Ke and the others make great contributions, there is hope that they will get rid of the identity of the sand thieves and become real disciples of Tianmen in the future, even if they can't, their descendants will also have a chance.
Pity.
They met Xia Fan.
"Rest in peace. ”
Xia Fan flicked his hand, and Munch, who had lost his use value, fell to the ground and was silent.
According to Munch's final confession.
A few hundred miles further east, there is a small town, and on weekdays, Meng Ke and others will go to the town for recreation in their spare time, and some time ago, Tianmen even sent a mysterious messenger.
And Munch and the others were instructed by this messenger to go out this time.
"Little fish, it's time for us to go. ”
After dealing with Munch, Xia Fan greeted Zhou Xiaoyu.
"Now?"
Zhou Xiaoyu was stunned.
"Can you still sleep now? Anyway, the town is not far from us, and it will pass in a little while. ”
Xia Fan said lazily.
“...... All right. ”
Zhou Xiaoyu yawned, and stepped forward to grab Xia Fan's hand tightly.
......
When Xia Fan disappeared into this oasis with Zhou Xiaoyu for about half an hour.
Two figures quietly appeared near the oasis.
"Senior Brother!!
As they crouched on each other's stomachs in the sand dunes and noticed the sight of corpses strewn across the edge of the oasis lake, one of the figures whispered in shock.
"Senior sister, don't be nervous, I'll go and investigate the situation. ”
The figure next to him muttered for a moment.
"Senior brother, it's too dangerous!"
"Don't worry, I've sensed it, and I haven't found the breath of a living person around. ”
“...... Senior brother, please be cautious. ”
"Of course. ”
Moment.
A figure hiding behind a sand dune suddenly dived towards the lake.
After a closer look, confirming that only corpses were nearby, the figure gestured to his companion in the sand dunes in the distance.
Soon.
Another figure followed suited to the edge of the lake.
"Senior brother, have you found anything?"
"I examined the bodies and found that they were all dead from broken hearts, but this one was not. ”
The figure stood in front of Munch's corpse with a solemn expression.
"This seems to be Munch?"
Another figure saw the corpse's face and gritted his teeth.
"It's him, but the cause of his death is a bit strange, there are no external injuries to his body, his heart is broken but not serious, etc......"
The figure examined Munch's corpse.
"He's having a problem with his head. ”
"What a problem. ”
An inexplicable force seemed to crush the inside of his head. ”
"Minced?!"
"Yes, it seems to have the same power as killing other people. ”
"Shhh...... Who killed Munch?"
"Do you see the fire and the leaves here? Obviously someone had been resting here before, and Munch and the others must have happened to bump into each other, judging from the traces of the scene, Munch was killed instead of killing people...... The most important thing is that judging from the time of Munch's death, the other party left here in a short time after killing Munch and them, and there was no trace of leaving......"
"That is to say......"
"I suspect that Munch and they have met a great master. ”
"Great Grandmaster?!How could a Great Grandmaster appear in such a place!"
"It's just my guess, otherwise we wouldn't be able to explain Munch's death and how the killer disappeared without a trace. ”
“...... Senior brother, do you think the other party will hide in this lake? ”
"If the other party is really hiding in this lake, I'm afraid the other party has already appeared. ”
“...... So what do we do next?"
"Go to Huangsha Town! Although Munch is dead, the mastermind is still there, and we must collect this blood debt with our own hands!"
“...... Good!"
Meanwhile.
Xia Fan and Zhou Xiaoyu suddenly appeared on an empty street.
"Uncle, where are we?"
Zhou Xiaoyu opened his eyes in a daze and said.
"Yes, but this town is really dilapidated. ”
Xia Fan looked at the simple houses on both sides of the street.
"Indeed, it looks like a fishing village in our hometown. ”
Zhou Xiaoyu looked at the low, old, wood-built rooms.
"Huh?"
At this time.
Xia Fan, who casually sensed a circle of small towns, suddenly raised his eyebrows.
"What's wrong?"
"I feel like I've met an acquaintance. ”
said.
Xia Fan took Zhou Xiaoyu and disappeared into the street again.
The center of the town.
One of the few houses in the town that is made of stone.
"Bai Qianfan! come out and lead the death!"
In the courtyard of the house stood a young man dressed in white, holding a long sword glowing with a cold light, staring at the room in front of him with cold eyes.
"Xie Linyuan, you're finally here. ”
The next moment.
The door opens.
I saw a slender middle-aged man walking out slowly.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”
