Chapter 256; Xuanming monk, Zhenwu Si Lu Qianqiu [3,000 words]
The snow covered the sky, and the huge Guangling Mansion City was reduced to snow white in the ice and snow cover, Fang Ping walked into the house, put on a black tights, put on a mask, and wore a hat, and his temperament also became cold and cold, a pair of eyes without joy or sorrow, like a killing machine, he left the manor and went to the grove twenty miles outside the city.
The cold north wind, the blowing of flowers and trees.
When he came to Fang Ping in the grove, he saw the thug dressed as a thug, the other party seemed to have been waiting here for a few days, and when he saw Fang Ping coming for so long, he was not angry, he just took out something from his arms and threw it into Fang Ping's hands.
"It contains the strange poison concocted by fusing the venom in your xenotoad poison sac with more than a dozen kinds of poisons, I have tried, and if it is contaminated with my cultivation, it will also speed up the blood, palpitations and chest tightness for a moment, and you can apply it to your innate Xuan Bing."
Fang Ping flicked his fingers and flicked the cork off the bottle, the mouth of the bottle facing down, and poured out a drop of viscous venom.
Poof
The colorful venom fell on the ground covered with ice and snow, and immediately corroded a large pit on the ground, and after soaking into the soil, the flowers and plants within a radius of 100 meters withered and fell, and the towering trees around them also became black and rotten because of the absorption of the toxins in the naan, and their vitality was cut off.
"Good stuff." Fang Ping nodded, a sword came, the innate Xuan soldiers in the sword box flew out of the air, he poured a whole bottle of venom on the sword of the innate Xuan Bing, if it was an ordinary weapon, it would definitely not be able to withstand such a corrosive poison, but the innate Xuan Bing who was sleeping with thirteen strange vertical pupil eyeballs absorbed all the venom outside the sword body with a slight bang.
Tantai Qingluo also took this opportunity to take a few more glances at the innate Xuan Soldiers in Fang Ping's hands, the so-called Innate Xuan Soldiers, all of them are peerless divine soldiers with all kinds of extraordinary powers, and if they are used properly, they can easily kill martial arts monks whose realm is much higher than their own.
The innate Xuan Soldier in her hand is a inheritance of the Mingyue Palace from generation to generation, and only the sect masters of the past dynasties know about it, and even the elders of the Mingyue Palace don't know that the Mingyue Palace has an innate Xuan Bing.
"Before leaving, I have a heartfelt word, that soul-chasing old man is carrying the inheritance of the martial arts holy land, you can't take it lightly, if you can't do it, sect master, don't be in a hurry, anyway, we can afford it, we can't kill the soul-chasing old man this time, and we can also survive this old thing." Fang Ping, who had quenched the poison for the innate Xuan soldiers, solemnly admonished the female sect master.
The female sect master's master died young because of the soul chasing old man, this is a deep feud in the sea of blood, Fang Ping is not afraid of anything, he is afraid that this female sect master will be carried away by hatred.
"Yes." Lantai Qingluo snorted indifferently, although she was eager for revenge, she would never risk her life, with the innate Xuan Soldier in his hand, plus Fang Ping swept the formation from the side, even if the two of them were no match for the old man with the blood soul, they also had the certainty of retreating.
……
In the thirty-sixth year of the Divine Sect, in the middle of January.
Yanzhou, Qinghe Prefecture, Wuyang County.
It was freezing cold, and the entire outer city of Wuyang City was a little deserted, and there were not many pedestrians on the streets.
An old man in a shabby cotton robe, with an old face and a rickety figure, walked with a little stagger, and dragged a girl of seven or eight years in his hand, and sat in a tavern with few customers.
"Old man Li, give me a pot of burning knives!"
A man who lived nearby in Wu, who was tired from a day of work in the wind and snow, entered the tavern and beckoned to the old man sitting in the corner, "Old man Li, this granddaughter is becoming more and more smart, do you want to marry my tiger or something?" ”
The guests who drank in the tavern laughed.
A few years ago, Old Man Li took his granddaughter to Wuyang County to open a tavern, who was a man of few words, with a granddaughter whose parents died early.
"Then how can I do it, old man, I will count on my granddaughter to provide for me, if you want to marry, let your tiger son become a pensioner, provide for the old man, and the baby born will also follow the old man's surname."
Old man Li replied with a straight face.
The man who threatened to marry smiled dryly, this era pays attention to inheritance, and if he wants his son to become rich, the children born must follow his surname, not to mention that he does not agree, and the ancestors and ancestors will not agree.
"Old man Li, you're not young, aren't you, eighty? I can still toss for a few years, I have a way here, you sell your granddaughter to a big family in the inner city as a maid, and you can also leave a sum of money for the elderly. One of the guests drank two more glasses and shouted in a loud voice that caused the guests in the tavern to scoff.
After a while, a group of people came from outside the tavern.
"It's the leopard master." The guests in the tavern all lowered their heads, as if they were afraid.
Walking into the tavern, the leopard master is burly and powerful, only wearing a thin robe under the cold winter moon, and he is not too cold, and those who know know know that he is a martial artist, and his blood is strong.
Viciously looking around at the guests in the tavern, the leopard master stomped his feet, shook off the snowflakes outside his trouser legs, first asked Old Man Li to give him a pot of wine, and then said with a smile: "It's not been peaceful recently, and the helper stipulates that businesses in the nearby streets must pay an extra one or two silver protection fees, take the money." ”
Everyone gasped.
This tavern run by Old Man Li relies on the nearby neighbors to take care of the business, and if you are lucky, you can drop seven or eight taels of silver all year round, and the leopard master collects protection fees twice a year, one tael at a time, which rises by one tael, and you have to pay four taels of silver a year.
"Can Master Leopard be accommodating, I really can't come up with that much money." Old man Li pleaded with a sad face.
"Rules are rules, if you don't pay them, you will look down on our Weihu Gang." The leopard snorted coldly.
Old man Li nodded, he suddenly aged a lot, and tremblingly handed over two taels of silver.
"Let's look at it, it's better to break the fortune and avoid disasters than a beating." After the leopard master took the money and left, someone in the tavern comforted Old Man Li.
It was dark and the tavern was closed.
All things return to silence.
The two figures disappeared in the alley outside the tavern in a flash.
"Are you sure that's the Soul Chaser? I think he's just an old man who lives with his granddaughter? Fang Ping asked.
The head of the jaw of the Qingluo of the Ten Thousand Killing Towers was slightly pointed, "The ghosts and ghosts of the Ten Thousand Killing Towers are all over Daxuan, you should have a deep understanding of the ability to search for intelligence and investigate your whereabouts, and it is clearly written on the task scroll that after this soul-chasing old man escaped the pursuit of the Zhenwu Division five years ago, he changed his appearance and came to open a tavern in this Wuyang County. ”
Fang Ping didn't doubt it, and sighed: "The big is hidden in the city, the small is hidden in the wild, the old comrades who are old are powerful." ”
"......" Yutai Qingluo glanced at the person in front of him, "What should I do next?" ”
"What to do, naturally we will first test how many catties he has." Fang Ping's mind turned to a plan.
More than 100 years ago, this soul-chasing old man had slaughtered on the rivers and lakes, and the enemies were all over the world, and now he is cultivating in seclusion, mainly because there are too many enemies, if the location of this soul-chasing old man is spread to the rivers and lakes, won't it attract a large number of masters to attack and kill him.
"Good idea." Knowing Fang Ping's plan, he agreed, and then found the ghost lurking in Wuyang County with Fang Ping.
According to the rules of the Ten Thousand Killing Building, the Charm of the Soul collects intelligence, investigates his whereabouts and cooperates with the assassination mission as much as possible, and as a Tianzi-level killer, Shantai Qingluo orders the Charm of Shanyang County to spread the news of the soul-chasing old man to the rivers and lakes, and the next thing to do is to wait patiently.
"One thing, I want to point out that the soul chasing old man is a super powerhouse of the Divine Hidden Realm cultivation." Fang Ping added one, this is in case a guy with poor strength comes out to die, not only can he not test the strength of the soul chasing old man, but he also has to startle the snake.
The charm is like the stars in the sky, distributed in the various state capitals and counties of the Daxuan Dynasty, pervasive, ubiquitous, walking to the street casually caught a simple and honest trader, maybe it is the ghost and ghost buried in the Ten Thousand Killing Building, in this case, what news to spread, it can be imagined quickly, in just a few days, the rivers and lakes exploded.
A month later, at the beginning of March, the ice and snow melted, spring was full of joy, Wuyang County was a little more vibrant, and the deserted streets also added a bit of liveliness.
For example, today, a monk wearing a golden robe and holding a nine-ring Zen staff came to Wuyang County, with a solemn face, bright eyes, and nine scars on his head.
"Monk Xuanming."
Took the picture album handed over by the ghost, which painted a monk's every move after entering Wuyang County, the painting was vivid, into the wood three points, Shantai Qingluo blurted out: "More than 100 people from the rivers and lakes who came before, none of them can be compared with this Xuanming monk, this person is practicing Buddhism and subduing demons, born in Chaotian Temple." ”
"More than 100 years ago, the old man chasing the soul in order to seize the secret method of Chaotian Temple, killed thousands of disciples of Chaotian Temple, this monk Xuanming went out to travel at that time, and when he went back, he saw that his own inheritance was destroyed, and since then he has traveled all over the rivers and lakes to find the traces of this old man chasing souls."
Fang Ping smiled, the female sect is mainly revenge, and the monk also wants revenge, this soul-chasing old man wants to save the day this time, it is difficult.
Two days later, another big man came to Wuyang County.
After reading the booklet sent by the Charm Spirit, Lantai Qingluo said: "This person should be the deputy lieutenant of the Zhenwu Division, Lu Qianqiu, who has opened up the second human body secret. ”
"A Xuanming monk, plus a deputy lieutenant of the Zhenwu Division, and hundreds of masters of the heavenly and human realms, if this soul-chasing old man hasn't noticed it, then the old man is dazzled, and look at how he struggles." Fang Ping and the female sect master glanced at each other.
Just as Fang Ping expected.
The tavern was very lively, and in the eyes of the neighbors, the old man Li, who was pulling his granddaughter and relying on each other for his life, was silent, looking at the masters of the rivers and lakes sitting in the tavern at this time, his face was quite calm, but his heart was turbulent.
"Are they all for the old man? Who leaked the whereabouts of the old man? ”
