Pick up the dragon scales
"Don't, what are you calling?"
Zhou Yun opened his mouth and bit Qi Zehui's hand fiercely, the latter was in pain, and quickly withdrew his hand:
"Crazy woman!
"Adulterous thief! When is it, still thinking about plotting against this girl!"
Only then did Qi Zehui react, and explained with a smile: "Who is going to plot against you! I feel that your coat is too conspicuous and easy to be seen, and my coarse cloth clothes are more hidden......
Zhou Yun was stunned for a moment, nodded with a slightly red face, and just wanted to apologize, but heard Qi Zehui add: "...... Besides, who's blind to youβouch!"
The ferries on the lake's shores are full of pedestrians and merchants, and able-bodied laborers carry boxes of goods and frequently shuttle between merchant ships and the shore.
The gang of the Yellow Dragon Gang surrounded the ferry, checking suspicious pedestrians and large goods with unkind faces.
At this time, a shirtless young man walked towards the ferry with an exaggerated figure-eight step and a very arrogant expression.
He walked straight up to a gang member with a new color on his face and stopped.
The guard looked up at him, then hung his head down again and sloppily eyes.
Seeing that he was ignored, Qi Zehui immediately felt that it was not obvious enough that he had shown it, so he took a step closer and leaned his face over.
"What are you doing!" the gang startled.
"Well, don't you think I'm suspicious?" Qi Zehui reminded.
"I think you're like a fool! Go and go, there's something big going on here!" the gang waved his hand impatiently.
"That," Qi Zehui felt that he was not obvious enough, so he accentuated his tone and said closely: "Do you think I don't look like the person you want to arrest?"
Only then did the gang raise his head and take a closer look at the visitor.
Qi Zehui blinked his eyes wide and looked at him expectantly.
"I think you're like your old mother!" the gang scolded impatiently, "Go aside!
"Niang Xipi!" Qi Zehui punched the man in the face, "The master remembers seeing you in the casino, but you don't recognize the master who beat you!"
The gang was beaten and rolled on the ground several times and fainted.
After such a while, the rest of the Huanglong Gang thieves paid attention to Qi Zehui, and rushed over one after another:
"Catch that shirtless guy!"
Qi Zehui raised his toes and hooked up a flat pole next to the pile: "So stupid, I don't know how you became the number one gang in Jiangnan!"
At that moment, he didn't say more, and he waved his flat shoulder and fought with the thieves.
Just as there was a commotion on the ferry, on the other side, a man who had covered himself tightly with a sour and smelly linen garment was limping towards the ferry in a very low-key manner.
"It's a mess, hey, is there anything else on the shore to get on the boat?
"Don't, uncle, there's another one here!" Zhou Yun hurriedly waved to the passenger ship and shouted.
Several members of the Huanglong Gang who came from a distance happened to pass by, and they happened to hear the daughter's voice clearly, and they glanced at each other at the moment, and they all stopped and turned around and ran towards Zhou Yun.
"Ahh
At this time, although it was sinking in the west, it was still hot and dry, coupled with such a long time of running around, and not a drop of water had entered, Qi Zehui was a little dizzy and out of breath, thinking that it was time to retreat. But who would have thought that as soon as he fought to the periphery of the encirclement, he heard Zhou Yun's screams not far away.
"This crazy woman, what bad luck!"
Qi Zehui looked at the empty green path in the distance, and then looked at Zhou Yun, who was imminent, gritted his teeth, roared and fought back, and at the moment when the blade was about to be cut off, he bounced those people away, and pulled them up: "Don't cry, get on the boat!" As he was talking, he was stabbed in the back lightly.
At this time, the owner of the passenger ship saw that the situation on the shore was chaotic, and had already ordered the ship to leave quickly.
Qi Zehui fought all the way, and finally escorted Zhou Yun to the shore, but the boat was already several feet away from the shore.
Looking at Zhou Yun's weak hands and feet, letting her swim over is tantamount to looking for death!
Qi Zehui's heart was crossed, he threw down the flat burden, and threw Zhou Yun out with all his might-
In just a few moments, he was stabbed twice.
Zhou Yun screamed, fell into the lake beside the boat impartially, and drank half of the water and was about to sink.
Fortunately, there were many good people on the boat, and they hurriedly jumped into the water and fished out the cool, half-floating and half-sinking Zhou Yun.
Qi Zehui saw that the person had been rescued, and his heart was suddenly relieved, and he immediately lifted his spirits, opened the two machetes with his bare hands, and rushed into the pile of people without looking at the injuries on his body.
"Stinky thief-" Zhou Yun leaned at the stern of the boat, shouting to the shore with tears streaming down her face.
In the shadow of the sword, a hand covered in blood gave a thumbs up.
......
Xiao Yan helped the husband and wife clean up the house, and after settling Su Xixue, he borrowed a set of old clothes and hats from the male host, and went out to buy some wound medicine.
In the streets and alleys of Yuezhou City, I don't know when the wanted portraits of the four people have been posted, Xiao Yan never dreamed that the heads of his four people could be rewarded with a thousand gold, he looked shocked, he didn't dare to stay longer, bought medicine and hurriedly returned to the alley.
"What's the situation outside?" Su Xixue saw Xiao Yan close the door with a gloomy face, and hurriedly asked.
After listening to Xiao Yan's description, she sighed and said, "It's really troublesome now, I just hope that Xiao Yun and your friend can get out of danger." β
Xiao Yan nodded, stepped forward by himself, and applied the cold ointment in his hand to Su Xixue's red and swollen little feet.
Su Xixue's body trembled slightly, but she didn't speak.
"What is it that is worth the Yellow Dragon Gang's effort?" Xiao Yan became more and more curious the more he thought about it, and couldn't help but ask.
Su Xixue looked at Xiao Yan's kind and clean eyes, hesitated, and said in a low voice: "It's because of a picture." β
"Picture?" Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It can't be some kind of treasure map, right?"
"No," Su Xixue shook her head, "That's a drawing for the production of a hidden weapon." β
"Hidden weapons?" Xiao Yan didn't like hidden weapons, and when he mentioned hidden weapons, he remembered the cold face of Tang Wuji, the master of the Purple Lotus Hall of the Tang Sect.
"Yes, Hidden Weapon. β
"What kind of secret weapon, is there a secret weapon of the Tang Sect?" Xiao Yan asked casually with a wave of his hand in the past Tang Wuji, who was a mysterious silver needle and dart.
Su Xixue chuckled: "Shaoxia said that he was joking, even if it was the rainstorm pear flower needle that the Tang Sect claimed to be 'blood must be seen, empty return is ominous, urgent, and the king of hidden weapons' is the first in the world, it is not as good as one-thousandth of its name, called 'Dragon Scale Duel'." β
The prestige of the rainstorm pear flower needle, even if it is a nobody like Xiao Yan, has heard of it, how many high-ranking masters of the mighty rivers and lakes have died under this hidden weapon, and it can even be said that half of the reason why the foundation of the Tang Sect has been able to stand for hundreds of years is due to this rainstorm pear flower needle.
But is there something that's a thousand times stronger?
Xiao Yan couldn't help but be a little incredulous: "Does such a thing really exist? Why has no one ever mentioned it?"
"Now even the drawings have been turned out of the former residence of the old man in Nanhua, and this one seems to exist," Su Xixue said with a solemn face, "The reason why no one knows about it is because the people who have seen it are dead." The reason why I know is because I heard my father mention it before. β
"Your father?" Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows, "Master Wudang?"
"Yes, decades ago, my father once investigated a bloody case with several Emei masters, which involved the lives of sixteen top masters - these masters, no matter who they are now, can be proud of the existence of the entire Central Plains martial arts, I will list a few casually, you must have heard of their prestige: Ouyang Jing, Liu Yi, Wang Zhenyu, ......"
"Could these three be the 'Purple Moon Knife' Ouyang Jing who slaughtered the eighteen water bandits and leveled the thieves in the south of the Yangtze River, the 'Dragon Lance' Liu Yi who fought the four King Kongs around the Hun King with one shot and one horse, and the 'Heaven Turning Palm' Wang Zhenyu Wang Daxia who fought alone against the head of the eight major sects and was invincible on the top of Huashan Mountain?" Xiao Yan was taken aback.
"Yes, it's them," Su Xixue sighed, "But it's like this, the sixteen Grandmasters who are invincible at the peak of martial arts training have actually been killed indirectly and again in a few months!"
"What?"
At the scene, my father and a few friends found only a letter of challenge and a dense wound on the corpse. Please check it out, and find that their bodies are full of small hidden weapons in the shape of scales, strangling and smashing bones, meridians, and internal organs!"
"So powerful?"
"My father and his entourage traced it one after another, and finally found the culprit: a ruffian hooligan who didn't know martial arts at all, only ate, drank, prostitute and gamble!
Xiao Yan gasped, a gangster who didn't know martial arts could actually kill sixteen peerless masters in a row! It can be seen how terrifying the power of that "Dragon Scale Duel" is!
If I can get the "Dragon Scale Duel", wouldn't it be easy to kill the red-faced old devil?
Xiao Yan secretly rejoiced in his heart, but he immediately dispelled this idea as soon as he changed his mind. He wants to take revenge with his own hands, not by the power of "others"!
In that way, even if he killed the old demon, he would not have the face to comfort the undead under the old and small Jiuquan in Niujia Village......
"Even though it was my father and his party who took advantage of their unpreparedness, several Emei masters who accompanied them still died tragically under the secret weapon, and my father was also seriously injured. If it weren't for that person who was also counterattacked by the 'Dragon Scale Duel' due to an operation error, I'm afraid there would be no me......" Su Xixue said.
"What happened?"
"The father didn't elaborate on the later things, only said that he found out that the thing was the remains of the deceased old man Nanhua, a famous craftsman with hidden weapons, and it was stolen by the gangster by chance before it could be announced to the world, and then it was destroyed. And my father did not announce this matter to the whole Jianghu, but only told a few people. Up to now, those who know about the existence of this thing and are still alive, including you and me, are only ten people. Even Xiao Yun, who was walking with me, didn't know what that thing was. β
"Then how did the people from the Yellow Dragon Gang and the Western Regions Holy Sect know about it?
"I don't know about this," Su Xixue shook her head, "But it seems that soon the whole rivers and lakes will know about the existence of this thing." Those people will definitely do whatever it takes to get the 'Dragon Scale Decision'......" Su Xixue paused and said slowly: "...... And we ......"
β...... It has become the target of everyone, and it is the enemy of the entire Jianghu forces!"
"We?" Xiao Yan pointed to himself, and immediately sat on the ground with a sad face when he confirmed that the "we" indeed included him.
Unexpectedly, just after a small success and a trip down the mountain, I encountered this incident.
This "dragon scale decision" does not sound as high as the threshold of "Shennong's Materia Medica", and in the final analysis, there are only a few people who can use medicine and poison to rob it.
And this "dragon scale duel", as long as it is a person, it can be used by any yellow-mouthed child, and it can be used as a big killing weapon!
Since the news has leaked, anyone with a little ambition will participate in this competition.
No matter what Su Xixue said, there is also a father of the head of Wudang as a backer, and people from all walks of life do not look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, and they will not be ruthless.
And what about him? A stupid boy with no background and no strength, when he comes up and encounters so many masters of the rivers and lakes who kill people without blinking, isn't he in danger and dead?
"Can I quit halfway through now?" Xiao Yan smiled bitterly.
"I'm afraid that if I believe it, those people in the rivers and lakes won't believe it. Su Xixue said with some embarrassment.
"It's over...... Xiao Yan said with his head in annoyance, "The drawing of that thing is with you, right? How about we just destroy it?"
"I'm afraid it's too late now, it's not that simple......" Su Xixue regretted a little, if she hadn't been selfish and wanted to bring that thing back to Wudang and destroy it earlier, maybe she wouldn't have caused so many things.
"Up to now, it is definitely not enough to destroy it, only by destroying it in front of the people of the world can the rivers and lakes be convinced!"
"Then I took that drawing and set it on fire in the most conspicuous place in the center of the city?"
"I'm afraid that if the young man has his life, he won't have a chance to burn it......," Su Xixue disagreed, "The only way to do this is to make the 'Dragon Scale Decision' first, and then destroy it to convince the public." The world's eyes are stubborn and vulgar, and if they are not allowed to see things, they will not give up, and even go crazy for a goal that really does not exist. β
"Okay, just do what Miss Su said!" Xiao Yan clapped his hands and said, "Where is the girl hiding that drawing?"
Su Xixue raised her head and looked at Xiao Yan, her poignant voice revealing a little sadness:
"Shaoxia, can I trust you?"
