Inside the city of Dingzhou Mansion, outside the Xiangteng Inn.

It's late at night.

Liu Ruiying stood at the door of the Xiangteng Inn.

I woke up with a cold wind, but at the moment, I was not drunk at all.

He looked back at the closed lobby and smiled bitterly at himself.

In the end, he couldn't speak...... I didn't even ask the girl's name, so I could only find a mirror and scold it!

"Miss, this kid is quite interesting!"

Back in the room, the sugar-fried chestnuts said to Zhao Mingming.

Liu Ruiying called her little sister, and she called Liu Ruiying a child.

This account is probably impossible to break clearly.

Zhao Mingming didn't speak, just gently pushed the window open a crack and looked towards the street.

However, Liu Ruiying did not pass under her window.

The direction of the station building of the Investigation Division of Dingzhou Prefecture is exactly the opposite.

Zhao Mingming also felt that tonight's experience was very wonderful. In a short period of time, she has already crossed paths with two humans.

One wants to kill her, and he will not die

One wanted to invite her to drink, and sang a child's play to herself.

However, the singing of "Bifang Wine" really has a bit of effort.

If Liu Ruiying hadn't forgotten the words later, Zhao Mingming really wanted to listen to it and see what happened to the flying and domineering Jiang Yuanwai.

The concept of bullying the weak and fearing the hard does not exist in the world of alien beasts.

Their daily survival is the constant repetition of the law of the jungle.

The strong will always be strong, and the weak deserve it.

But when listening to this opera, Zhao Mingming felt some pity for the vulnerable protagonist.

Transfiguration can only transform the body, but it can't change the heart. But unconsciously, her mind has gradually moved closer to humans.

Liu Ruiying walked alone on the wide street and saw a spark in the distance.

"There are still confiscated stalls on this street?!"

When I got closer, it was a bookstall bookstall.

On a small wooden shelf car, a flat layer of books is placed.

A bamboo pole sticks out of the handle of the frame, and a lamp is held on it.

The stall owner sat in the shadow, unable to see clearly.

Liu Ruiying looked at the title of the book, all of which were works by sages, and the scriptures and histories were subcollected...... I immediately lost interest.

"Guest, buy books?"

Liu Ruiying retracted his gaze and was about to continue walking forward when the stall owner suddenly spoke.

"Hmm? I don't buy it. ”

Liu Ruiying refused.

"I have a lot of unique books here!"

The stall owner continued.

This sentence made Liu Ruiying interested again.

The headquarters of the Central Capital Investigation Division, the provincial patrol of Tianmu Province, Lord Jiang Chongchang is famous in the central capital for his obsession with rare books.

If you can find any treasures here, it will be a wonderful thing to give them as gifts when he returns to Zhongdu one day.

After all, his promotion this time, as well as the rewards for his martial arts and sword skills, were all handled by Jiang Xingxun himself, wasn't it? Besides, this was the first time he was sent abroad, so it was reasonable to have to bring something back.

"What kind of solitary book do you have?"

Liu Ruiying doesn't know how to read.

He only knows that the meaning of a solitary book is only one, and rare things are precious.

"What kind of solitary nature does objectivity want?"

The stall owner asked rhetorically.

This stumped Liu Ruiying......

He didn't know what type of ancient books Jiang Changchong liked in the provincial patrol, and if he wanted to let him say a name, he would have to search his stomach.

"There are eight kinds of literary styles in the world: table, saying, remembering, inscription, preface, debate, biography, and edict, and the four major titles: scriptures, history, children, and collections. It seems that the guest officer is not a scholar......

Liu Ruiying was quite unconvinced.

The reader belongs to Wendao, and Liu Ruiying is naturally not.

For example, there are two giants in the south and north: Bogulou and Tongjin Pavilion.

Bogu Building is in the northwest, and Tongjin Pavilion is in the southeast.

They are all located at the junction of the two royal domains, which means impartiality and fairness.

Although scholars are not like martial artists, they fight swords and swords on weekdays, and their cultivation is short and long. But it is also necessary to write the Spring and Autumn Period with a pen and write a shocking article before stopping.

Gold, yellow, red, purple, cyan, blue, black, white.

Silk, Luo, silk, satin, brocade, silk, silk, silk.

The sun, the moon, the stars, the stars, the mountains, the dragons, the insects, the grass.

In total, there are eight grades, which are uniformly distributed by the college to distinguish them.

On the other hand, there are three ways to distinguish between the costumes, the color, the texture of the material, and the pattern on the painting.

The gold is made of silk, and the sun is embroidered on the chest, which is the highest eighth grade.

The white silk is the texture, and the back is embroidered with weeds, which is the lowest grade.

Except for the eight grades, the patterns of the rest of the grades are embroidered on the back. However, people all over the world are still accustomed to distinguishing by color, and few people look closely at the embroidery pattern.

Blue, blue, black, and white are among the four grades,

Corresponds to the fourfold realm of reading in the mind, thinking in the heart, coming out of the mouth, and falling in the pen.

However, there are no clear regulations for gold, yellow, red, and purple, and everything is based on the merits of the article, but this scale is a little ambiguous...... After all, the article has always been said to be handsome, and the mother said that the mother is beautiful.

For them, the articles they wrote were more precious than their own sons born in their wives' wombs. His wife feeds three times a day, and he appreciates himself thirty times a day.

If there is really no way to quell the rebellion, you can only apply for help one by one.

At present, there is only the owner of Bogu Mansion in the world, and the master of Tongjin Pavilion is the eight-grade Jin Ayari, and he is also the only two people who can make a decision on life and death.

This is the old way of the dynasty.

The five kings haven't changed, and they just come to eat a ready-made one.

It's not to save trouble, but this system is reasonable, so there is no need to change the rules.

Every ten years around the summer solstice, the north building and the south pavilion will compete in the middle capital, called the literary dragon and tiger fight.

In comparison, the aspect of martial arts is much weaker.

At least there is no such large-scale, high-level event.

However, this is also the result of the joint deliberation of the five kings...... People who practice martial arts are already fierce and aggressive. The world has finally settled down, and if there is such a competition again, I can't tell how many people will be ruined and their wives separated for that false name.

Don't talk far, just look at Dingzhou this time.

Tang Zhongsong's Liuguang Pavilion released a half-truth and half-false news on the Dingxi Tour, which was already stirring up clouds in all directions.

If this move is placed in the central capital, it is the same as the dragon and tiger fight in this literary world, then it is still necessary?

Although there is no first.

But the reader fights for a backbone, and it is a pattern.

Whoever has a hard backbone and who has a big pattern.

The sad words must be slightly inferior to the courage of the Iron Horse Golden Knife.

Therefore, even if they do not judge the rankings, but only in the name of discussion and exchange, the participants have their own clear accounts in their hearts.

In the last dragon and tiger fight, Liu Ruiying was still young.

I only remember that there were two old men, both with white beards and hair, both dressed in golden silk days, each standing behind a huge case.

On both sides were dozens of disciples and maids, busy spreading paper and grinding.

The moment he put pen to paper, it actually caused a shocking storm for the middle capital.

The more the two of them wrote, the more hearty and fierce they became, and the rolling writing that rose to the sky condensed into a dragon and tiger in the wind and rain over the central capital.

The divine tiger rushed to the face, and the long howl seemed to make the Taishang River flow backwards.

The dragon hides its head and tail, and the dragon's claws are churning and even the nine mountains tremble.

Liu Ruiying, who watched this scene, was very scared, and ran back to the room without waiting for the end to cover his head with the quilt, leaving only his ass high outside.

With such an experience, he was naturally not interested in Wendao. If it weren't for the fact that the Investigation Division also needed to read and learn characters, he probably wouldn't have dabbled in this at all.

Now that he was asked by the stall owner, he recalled an unhappy past, and said angrily at the moment: "I want history!"

"History is divided into ancient history, recent history, and modern history. This ancient history, modern history, and modern history are divided into official history and wild history. I wonder which one you want, guest officer?"

The stall owner asked calmly, no emotion in his tone.

"How can you have so many unique ancient books?

Liu Ruiying was furious when she heard this, and reprimanded.

"There's no need to be angry, I'll take it all out and let you choose. ”

"Dangchang!"

A cold light flashed, hitting Liu Ruiying's scabbard right on.

It turned out that the stall owner took the opportunity to shoot this hidden weapon by taking the opportunity to get the book.

Liu Ruiying's hand was quick, but he blocked it with his scabbard.

"Who are you?"

When the visitor saw that the blow could not be struck, he did not answer.

His hands danced in unison, as if playing an invisible lute in the air.

Liu Ruiying turned the scabbard with one hand to resist, although the opponent's attack was fierce, but it was all blocked without leakage.

Liu Ruiying glanced at the hidden weapon that fell into the ground.

They were transparent and emitting faint white smoke, which was actually made of ice.

The cold side of the water is ice, and the ice is the expansion of water.

The person who shoots the icicle secret weapon casually is already enough to mobilize the power of water in the power of the five elements to the extreme.

This person's cultivation has already reached the Earth Sect realm, or at least it is a pseudo-Earth Sect like Liu Ruiying.

This made Liu Ruiying shocked......

Although he also opened up the Pleiades Qi Mansion and could mobilize the power of the Five Elements of Fire, the corresponding exercises and sword skills were not cultivated at all.

The "Seven Absolute Flame Sword" has just arrived in his hand for two days, and he didn't break through the third "indomitable" mantra just because he picked the word "Yan".

"No, maybe it's an opportunity......"

Liu Ruiying thought in her heart.

"I, hehe, I'm actually a guest officer!"

It was only at this moment that the stall owner stepped out of the shadows.

Dressed in an ordinary cotton robe, the face is covered with a black scarf and you can't see your face, but she is very delicate between her eyebrows.

There seems to be something in the throat that destroys the timbre and tone, making it impossible to hear age.

In fact, Liu Ruiying had already been on guard against this person, otherwise the opponent's first blow would have killed him.

Before the end of the wine game with sugar-fried chestnuts and Zhao Mingming, Liu Ruiying heard the sound of a watchman outside, and it was the hour of the hour.

If it is for those who do night labor, it is understandable that the supper stalls where bowls and noodles are cooked are still on the table, waiting for the last wave of late returnees.

But this man chose a bookstall instead.

How can this not be suspicious?

Moreover, the cover of the book on the shelf car was new and neat, and there was no trace of it being turned over.

A casual bookstall along the street, you don't sell the Spring Palace, you just sell the books of the sages, and even say that you have a lone book, isn't this even more incredible?

If the lone book is so easy to find, then there is no need for Jiang Chongchang Provincial Inspector to forget to sleep and eat in order to find a love book, and he doesn't think about tea and dinner.

Liu Ruiying didn't understand why such a master's camouflage skills were so clumsy.

This road is the only way to return to the Dingzhou Mansion Investigation Division Station from the Xiangteng Inn, and he has been waiting here for a long time.

But if a mortal decides to do something, it must be profitable.

There are no outright good people in this world, everyone is either chasing fame or profit.

But what exactly does this person want from himself, Liu Ruiying has no clue about it.

"He just said he was a guest officer......"

The implication of this sentence is already obvious.

Liu Ruiying must have something that the other party needs.

"What do you want?"

Liu Ruiying knew that once he fought, he would definitely not be pleased, so it was better to delay for some time before making a plan. If you have time to send out a signal, it would be good to call everyone from the Investigation Division to come and help.

"The two streets around here are empty, but you don't want to bother anymore. ”

He didn't say what he wanted, but said what Liu Ruiying thought in one sentence.

However, the other party didn't seem to be alone, which also made Liu Ruiying a little more shocked. Who is it, what organization is going to spend so much effort to hunt itself?

He glanced at the star sword in his hand, and immediately thought of Huo Wang.

"Are you from the Dingxi Palace?"

Liu Ruiying asked, and at the same time, his body had begun to secretly mobilize his strength.

"It doesn't matter who we are. But as long as you hand over the sword skills of the Seven Peerless Flame Sword, we can let you go. ”

Only then did Liu Ruiying understand the fundamental purpose of the other party, which turned out to be for the reward he had just received - "Seven Absolute Flame Sword".

"Seven Peerless Flame Sword?"

Liu Ruiying was very surprised.

It's not that he didn't hear the other party's words clearly, but he felt that how could this mere copy of the "Seven Absolute Flame Sword" make the other party work so hard.

"That's right, it's "Seven Absolute Flame Sword". ”

The other man repeated.

Liu Ruiying thought that this "Seven Absolute Flame Sword" was just a secret book found in the treasury of the headquarters of the Central Capital Investigation Division, and nothing else.

And the reason why he likes it very much is because this exercise sword technique just makes up for the gap that he has no skills to practice and no sword to use after stepping into the pseudo-earth sect.

Where would he have thought that this "Seven Peerless Flame Sword" was the work of Zhang Su, a sage of civil and military affairs.

If the "Theory of the Unity of Knowledge and Action" before Zhang Suyu's transformation is excluded, then "Seven Absolute Flame Sword" can be regarded as a real one-of-a-kind.

Although when Zhang Su completed "Seven Absolute Flame Swords", his core idea "The Theory of the Unity of Knowledge and Action" was not born.

However, the innovation of the world's truth is not achieved overnight.

Although the completion of "Seven Peerless Flame Sword" is still early, the essence of the future "Theory of the Unity of Knowledge and Action" has already been scattered in it.

"The Seven Absolute Flame Swords are not with me. ”

Liu Ruiying lied.

"You didn't stop on the way from Jiying Town to Dingzhou Capital. Then, when you enter the city, you will go to the Xiangteng Inn alone and lightly to eat and drink. Although you asked the people from the Investigation Division to send your salute back to the station building, there was no "Seven Absolute Flame Sword" in it except for some change of clothes. Therefore it can only be on you. What's more, how can you not keep such a precious thing with you?"

The other party still spoke calmly, and pierced Liu Ruiying's lies word by word.

Liu Ruiying found that his whereabouts along the way were so well understood by the other party, and listening to his words, it seemed that he had already gone to the station of the Investigation Division of Dingzhou Mansion to look at his salute.

Although the station building of the Investigation Division of Dingzhou Mansion is not top-notch among the station buildings in various places, it has never heard of anyone outside entering it in a grand manner.

You must know that there are many internal organs in the station building of the Investigation Division, especially the gate is more practical and locked. If there is no corresponding token key, it is difficult to open even if there is tens of millions of catties of brute force. Even if you use force, you break the door. How could the people in the station not react to such a big movement?

Liu Ruiying naturally didn't believe it at the moment, but her right hand slowly stretched out into the placket of her chest.

"Smack!"

He did carry the "Seven Absolute Flame Sword" close to him, and he put it in the placket of his chest.

But next to the cheats is a stray fire bomb with the characteristics of the Investigation Division, once it is thrown out within a radius of dozens of miles, it can be seen, and the comrades in the war building will definitely come to meet it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Liu Ruiying threw the stray fire bomb out of his hand, he was firmly nailed to the wall by an arrow shot from the darkness in which direction.

This archery is fast, accurate, and ruthless.

Although I don't know how many people there are on the other side, I can at least be sure that in addition to the icicle man in front of him, there is also a master of archery, who is secretly waiting for an opportunity.

Maybe the next arrow, the one who will be nailed to the wall will be his own neck.

The icicle man saw that Liu Ruiying was frustrated by calling for foreign aid, but he didn't say anything.

It can be seen that he doesn't want to do anything either, he just wants to take away the "Seven Absolute Flame Sword".

What he is doing now is to wipe out Liu Ruiying's heart little by little. Then block all his retreats and let his mind collapse.

In this way, Liu Ruiying must be obedient, but it will take more time.

There are some hunters in the Five Kingdoms who will domesticate eagles to assist them in hunting.

This kind of domestication is not to raise falcons from childhood, because falcons that grow up in this way are no different from parrots.

They were to go out into the wilderness, using live birds as bait and wire nets to catch primitive falcons that were not yet civilized.

Only such a falcon has all the skills a hunter needs, not just a beautiful plumage.

However, the eagle is the noblest creature in the air.

Their life is embodied between their wings that fly freely.

Hovering over the mountains and rivers, looking down on the land.

How proud they are, they will not submit to humanity at all.

So, the hunters came up with a solution.

It is to firmly enclose the eagle between square inches, so that it cannot eat, drink, sleep, or fly.

In just a few days, the proud eagle will stand on the hunter's shoulders affectionately and become their faithful companion.

This process is called boiling eagles.

Just like Liu Ruiying's situation now.

But, unlike the falcon, Liu Ruiying can think.

He found that the two people who were now exposed by the other party, one was an ice pick hidden weapon, and the other was a powerful arrow, both of whom were known for their distance.

Generally, people who use these weapons and martial arts are often weakened and greatly weakened by the enemy's strength after being close to the enemy.

Although Liu Ruiying didn't expect to win, as long as there was a movement here, not to mention the investigation division station, even the soldiers of Dingzhou Mansion would come out to investigate.

But if there is any change in himself now, the secret archer will definitely not hesitate to release the arrow.

How to dodge this arrow has become the top priority of this strategy.

Liu Ruiying lowered her head and sighed slightly, as if she was extremely helpless, and at the same time stretched her right hand into her chest again.

Suddenly, I saw his legs bent, his back bowed, he held the star sword in his arms, and rolled forward with his head as the fulcrum.

"Whoosh!"

The archer unexpectedly let go of his arrows.

Liu Ruiying's back was cut by an arrow, and as long as he was slightly dull for a moment, the arrow would be shot at his waist.

The icicle man was also taken aback when he saw Liu Ruiying rolling in front of him.

Perhaps he was even more surprised that the companion who was hiding in the shadows could have missed.

Liu Ruiying naturally wouldn't give him a chance to shoot a second arrow.

With a kick on his hind legs, he lunged forward, hugging the Icicle Man's waist.

This really made the icicle man a little at a loss.

He didn't expect Liu Ruiying to come up with such a method, it was like a scoundrel fighting on the street.

It's also the provincial flag of the Investigation Division, how can it be so shameless.

How did he know that Liu Ruiying was full of thoughts about how to break the predicament.

What's more, if you lose your life, what's the use of saving face?

The dignity of death has always been a great thing, and only the indomitable life can be praised.

Liu Ruiying buried his head in the waist of the icicle man, dodging the dark arrow.

Wrap your arms around him and slap your palms at the back of the icicle man.

"Storm!"

It's just that Liu Ruiying doesn't use the strongest blow that a sword can deliver at the moment.

Because he firmly embraced the icicle man and stuck him, he couldn't hide, he couldn't escape. And where Liu Ruiying struck was the dead end of his defense, these two chapters of the icicle man were firmly accepted.

"Hah!"

The icicle man shouted, lifted his leg and kicked Liu Ruiying away, but he was unscathed.

Liu Ruiying took advantage of this gap to see a star reflection in the darkness in front of him, he pulled out the star sword with his right hand, and threw it towards the reflection with his strength, and his left hand still slapped at the icicle man.

The star sword is out of his hand.

Like a bolt of lightning, it shot out in the intended direction.

"Bang dang!"

In the dark, the archers saw the attack of the star sword and hurriedly dodged, and finally stepped on the tiles on the roof, revealing their figures.

I never thought that Liu Ruiying's sword throwing technique was a false move with thunder and rain, and he flew out less than a few meters away and fell to the ground.

"Puff ......"

Liu Ruiying didn't have time to happily deal with a secret crisis, but his left palm was pierced by the opponent's ice pick.

Seeing that the other party had distanced himself again, Liu Ruiying endured the pain and rushed forward and picked up the star sword.

He saw a regular hole in the palm of his left hand, but no blood was coming out.

Around the wound, a cold force was gradually spreading.

"Haha, you've been hit by my Meridian Ice Cone. The noon is not noon, the noon is not the noon, and within six hours you will be frozen to death by the cold energy. ”

Icicle Man said fearlessly.

Liu Ruiying ignored the other party, he slightly sensed the wound in his palm, and knew that what the other party said was true.

At the moment, my heart sank, but there was no other way than to move forward.

Liu Ruiying grabbed with his right palm, but he shot a few more palms.

This wind is worthy of Liu Ruiying's hard-working martial arts.

With a palm, the speed is like a shocking afterimage, mixed with the wind, which makes people even more confused about the direction and reality.

However, the other party's meridian ice cone was faster.

"Ahh

In an instant, the center of the right palm was also pierced.

Even so, Liu Ruiying still gritted his teeth and picked up the star sword.

Because of the power of the ice, his right hand had begun to stiffen slightly.

As a last resort, he had no choice but to hold the sword with both hands, from sitting down to the upper right, and slashing the sword diagonally.

"The Dharma Dao is unparalleled!"

This sword is the unique swordsmanship of the Investigation Division, and it cannot be studied by anyone who is not from the Investigation Division.

The word "Fadao" takes the meaning of justice in law.

The Investigation Division investigates the world.

Maintaining the law of the world and protecting the justice of the world is unparalleled in the world.

Liu Ruiying's sword almost used up all the energy he had accumulated, and even the Qi Mansion around his body became empty.

If it weren't for the support of the star sword, he would have to fall to his knees.

This sword came out, and the sky was suddenly gloomy.

Rigidity and softness, yin and yang are round, and they are forced to kill the icicle man.

Seeing this sword qi coming, the icicle man not only did not dodge, but also put one hand behind his back......

"Chilling Holy Ice!"

His right hand shook the void in front of him slightly, and Liu Ruiying used all his strength to split the sword qi that was frozen!

Such a skillful chill can even freeze sword moves!.

"If you don't hand over the Seven Killing Sword, you will hand over your life first!"

The icicle man said disdainfully, but he had already developed murderous intent.

However, Liu Ruiying still did not give up.

Ignoring the emptiness of the dantian and the drying up of the qi, he forcibly raised his strength and drew his sword again.

This sword, unremarkable, just stabbed forward.

In fact, the tip of the sword connected the dots, and the strength turned into rain, and it densely attacked and killed the icicle man.

Suddenly, Haomang filled the sky.

Liu Ruiying knows that he has abundant energy in the Pleiades in his body. And the cremation power is very powerful.

However, he guarded Baoshan empty, but he could only sigh in vain...... I only know how to introduce energy into it and transform it, but I don't know how to draw it out and transform it into power.

Unexpectedly, it was this distraction, and a sword shot through the humerus of Liu Ruiying's left leg, and the blood immediately flowed like an infusion......

The archers who had previously been exposed had found a new lurking position, hiding in the darkness again.
