Chapter 4: A Knife Breaks
After a while, Mo Chen passed through a small wood, and his vision suddenly opened up.
In the middle of a clearing, there was a stone tomb made of stones, and in front of the tomb stood a tablet with the names of Mo Chen's parents.
Mo Chen took a deep breath, walked a few steps to the tombstone, knelt on the ground on his knees, and said abruptly: "Dad, mother, Xiaochen has come back to see you." ”
After saying that, he knocked his head on the tombstone a few times, and then fell to the ground, not getting up for a long time.
His parents died five years ago, and because of sadness, he didn't return to the mountain for five years.
Sadness is secondary, mainly because he feels shameless to face his parents' graves, because he has not fulfilled the vow he made to his father:
Marry a heavenly lady with good qualifications for cultivating immortals, have children, improve the bloodline of the Mo family's descendants, and let the Mo family produce an immortal.
This oath was made to his father after he swallowed the Realm Breaking Pill and the realm was locked in the Tianji Realm.
At the beginning, he swallowed the Realm Breaking Pill, but he was angry with his father, because their Mo family ancestors were ordinary people for more than ten generations, and finally Mo Chen was accepted as a disciple by Baili Wufeng, but his father had the dream of Mo Chen becoming an immortal and shining on the lintel.
Who would have thought that Mo Chen, a stupid boy, would swallow the Realm Breaking Pill in order to break the mirror and prolong his life, and he would never become an immortal again for the rest of his life.
In fact, this is not to blame him for being stupid, because with his qualifications, if he doesn't take the Broken Mirror Pill, he can't become an immortal, not only can't he become an immortal, but I'm afraid that he won't be able to cultivate the Tianji Realm.
The way of cultivating immortals is to attach great importance to talent.
When the human race is born, there will be an innate qi left in the body, and the cultivation of immortals is to take the innate qi as the foundation, and the power of the stars as the traction, attracting the spiritual qi of heaven and earth into the body.
Therefore, the depth of innate qi determines a person's immortal cultivation qualifications, and Mo Chen is the kind of person whose innate qi is weak.
The Immortal Road is extremely difficult to walk, and there are nine realms along the way, and the name of each realm corresponds to the North Star.
Seven stars, two hidden stars.
And there are five realms before humans and demon monks become immortals, which are Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, and Yuheng in order.
If the qualifications are not good, they may not be able to get started in their lifetime.
At the beginning, Mo Chen cultivated for more than ten years after he started, and he was still in the Tianshu Realm, and later took the priceless Broken Mirror Pill, so that he jumped from the Tianshu Realm to two realms in a row, opened up the twelve meridians, and entered the Tianji Realm.
His father didn't understand this, he just thought that Mo Chen was short-sighted and gave up his great immortal path in order to prolong his life.
As a last resort, in order to appease his father, Mo Chen made a vow that he would marry the lady of the sky and let his children glorify the lintel for the Mo family.
Unfortunately, when both his parents died, he did not fulfill this vow.
There is no way, those heavenly ladies have their eyes on their heads, but they can't look down on a little monk who can only be in the Tianji realm for life.
Therefore, if you want to marry a lady of the sky, there is nothing he can do, but fortunately, his master has the ability, shows his old face, and forms a family affair for him.
It's just that the other party has a prominent family background and wants to get married, so he wants to give a dowry worth 500,000 taels of silver.
In order to make money, he started business twenty years ago, and after failing in business, he ran to become an assassin, which is a very fast way to make money, if his master is willing to accept the court's offerings, he will not go to be an assassin to make money.
After reviewing these pasts, Mo Chen slowly straightened up, scratched his head, and shook the pot at the tombstone and said:
"Dad, it's not that I'm not angry, it's that the master is too high, otherwise as the master, would he still use me to earn money?
So, it's all his fault, it's not that I'm not angry. ”
Speaking of this, Mo Chen's face turned weak, and he said happily: "Don't talk about the stinky old man Master, I'll tell you good news, I'm about to save up the dowry, and in a few years, I promise to marry you a daughter-in-law with good qualifications...... Well...... It's been 20 years, my lady who hasn't passed through the door should grow up, right? ”
After comforting his parents' spirits in heaven, he made some of the parents' short gossip, and it was not until evening that he got up and returned to his lodgings.
For five years, his room was clean and tidy, apparently often cleaned.
This made Mo Chen's eyes red, and he missed the master he had just left, and muttered to himself in a sad tone: "Master, you must say something good to the White Emperor, don't let her invite a demon fairy to kill me." ”
After thinking about Baili Wufeng, he came to the cabinet, opened the cabinet and took out a wooden box, then took out a storage bag from his pocket, opened the lid of the wooden box and put it in.
In addition to the newly placed storage bags, there were also four storage bags in the wooden box, each containing 100,000 taels of silver, a total of 400,000 taels.
These are the net worth he has earned after more than twenty years as an Assassin.
To say that he is the number one assassin in the White Kingdom, if he is not extremely picky about business, and he has raised his value with his record of never failing, he is afraid that he can earn a million taels of silver.
There's no way, how can a decent gentleman like him kill innocents indiscriminately, right?
After putting the storage bag away, Mo Chen was silent for a moment, then took out a copper plate and put it in the wooden box.
This is his reward for killing Lin Wuxian......
"These ungrateful people! If I don't even get paid, I shouldn't be nosy, and I won't be able to do things first and then collect money in the future. ”
The more Mo Chen thought about it, the more angry he became, and he put the wooden box back in his place, and then left the room and came outside.
At this time, there was a full moon hanging in the night sky, and the night wind gently blew Mo Chen's face, and the sound of insects chirping and the friction of salsa leaves was in his ears.
The night is thick, suitable for knife practice.
Mo Chen, who turned his grief into strength, held the scabbard of the barrier knife in his left hand, flexed his thumb, and the barrier knife suddenly flew out of the sheath and flew into the air.
At the same time, Mo Chen jumped high, grabbed the barrier knife, his eyes flashed, and he swung a knife at the woods.
After swinging a knife, he jumped in the air, stepped on the void and rushed into the sky, swinging several knives in the night sky, each knife was silent, and there was no sound of breaking the sky.
After a while, Mo Chen landed on the ground, put the barrier knife into the sheath, started the horizontal knife, and slowly closed his eyes.
At this moment, he had no breath, and a few birds saw his "little tree" and landed on Mo Chen to rest.
Time passed little by little, and the birds flew away and came in waves.
Until Baili Wufeng returned from driving the clouds, Mo Chen was still motionless.
Seeing that Mo Chen's breath was completely gone, Baili Wufeng also held his breath and stared together, quietly landed, and watched Mo Chen not far away.
At this moment, Mo Chen moved, he opened his eyes suddenly, and the horizontal knife unsheathed at a speed invisible to the naked eye, sweeping in front of him.
After that, the blade swung downward, the blade shook lightly, and a crack slowly cracked from the knife body with the sound of the knife, interlaced with the remaining more than ten thin cracks.
"What is this??"
Seeing this scene, Baili Wufeng's eyes widened, and in the depths of his pupils, a black line appeared in front of Mo Chen.
This black line is extremely strange, as if space has been torn apart.
"Broken ......" Baili Wufeng gasped and murmured silently.
Mo Chen's knife cut a hole here, this is ......
Road!
Dao, it is the ability that only immortals in the realm of Baili Wufeng have, and what did he see?
Mo Chen turned into a knife!
"Technology becomes the way...... I knew it! Xiao Chen, he ...... He...... It can be done! Before becoming an immortal, enlighten first, this is an unprecedented thing!"
Baili Wufeng clenched his hands, and after the surprise, a deep look of regret appeared on his face.
Mo Chen's realm is too low, this knife is unparalleled in power, but the power is insufficient, and it is useless to cut people who can't hit them.
If Mo Chen becomes an immortal, this knife can easily cut off mountains and rivers.
But......
"Alas...... God is jealous of talents, God is jealous of talents......"
Baili Wufeng let out a long sigh, he, a criminal man, began to practice at the age of ten, practiced Yijiazi, cultivated the sword technique to the level of turning it into a Tao, and did what no one could do, he was really the first person in Henggu so far.
Alas...... Why is this the end?
On the other side, Mo Chen heard the sound of the knife being put into the sheath, and sighed lightly: "I need to change the knife......
After saying a word, he turned around and said triumphantly, "Master, how about my knife?" ”
Because he noticed that there was no edge for a hundred miles, he swung this knife and showed the results of these five years of cultivation to his master.
"Alas......"
Baili Wufeng shook his head lightly, and let out another long sigh.
Mo Chen was mistaken, the smug look on his face froze, and after a few breaths, he held the handle of the barrier again, frowned and thought about it, let go of his hand, and the long-handled horizontal knife on his waist trembled slightly, as if it was about to be unsheathed at any time.
"Master, I haven't sparred with you for five years, why don't you fight with me now at a distance of ten paces?"
The horizontal knife on his waist trembled more violently as the words fell.
Ten steps away? Baili Wufeng was stunned for a moment, looked at Mo Chen's face of unyielding, and his face gradually darkened.
The sword that Mo Chen had just swung out was too low and too low, but the power was ......
He didn't think that he would be safe and sound, he found that his criminals were trying to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors!
"Hmph, I don't want to hurt you for the teacher, I don't want to mention this matter again......" Baili Wufeng snorted coldly, and then changed the topic and said: "The teacher has negotiated with the White Emperor, and she can forcibly suppress your assassination of the dog official, but there is one condition." ”
"On what terms?"
Concerning his own safety, the instrument knife behind Mo Chen stopped trembling, and looked at Baili Wufeng with a vigilant expression.
"Kill someone."
"People? Kill whom? Mo Chen's vigilance increased a little.
The person who can let him assassinate must be a strong man, and there are very few Terran monks in the White Country, and they are all harmless to people.
Yes, the people the White Emperor wants to kill......
"I don't know for the teacher, I only know that the person is a disciple of the Great Shang Chaotian Holy Sect." There is no edge for a hundred miles, and he looks south.
Sure enough, it's not a White Country monk......
Mo Chen narrowed his eyes when he heard this, the Great Shang Dynasty, his home country.
After a while, Baili Wufeng saw that Mo Chen was silent in thought, quietly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and continued:
"The teacher has already answered for you, and in a month, the teacher will send you over."
"Where are you going?" Mo Chen raised his eyes and grasped the point of his words.
"Yunxi." Baili Wufeng replied casually, and then did not continue to talk about it, assassinating a person was as easy as drinking water for his criminals.
"Yunxi, the capital before the White Emperor moved the capital...... That person is in Yunxi City? ”
Mo Chen muttered, seeing that his master no longer spoke, his eyes turned, the horizontal knife on his side shook again, and he arched his hand and said: "Since I was a child, I have not been injured by my master, and now that I have been separated for five years, I miss my master's spur a little, and I ask my master for guidance." ”
The corners of Baili Wufeng's mouth twitched when he heard this, he was a criminal...... It's too much!
At that moment, with a wave of his sleeves, an invisible wind roared towards Mo Chen, and in an instant, Mo Chen was blown away.
"The realm is so low that you dare to compete with the demon fairy, can you really be a good teacher and bully?"
Glancing at the direction in which Mo Chen was blown away, Baili Wufeng snorted coldly, walked towards his residence, walked a few steps, and walked out of the temperament of the fairy wind bone.
Dignified fairies, magic gods, who will compete with you at a distance of ten steps? Get used to you!
Well......
Now that Xiao Chen is back, the knife in the house must be hidden, and the teacher does not bother to practice the knife skills of the criminals!
