Chapter 14 Encountering the Relics of the Tianwu Gate
The first place Xue Dong came to was the town, he wanted to see the customs of the small world, he had been here for almost three months, he had only been to the town once, the rest of the time was to go up the mountain to hunt and practice, and he was going home in a few days, he wanted to walk around, passing by the leather store, he saw a woman dressed as a young lady out of the fat shopkeeper's shop, followed by a maid ring, the young lady held a kite in her hand, seemed to want to fly a kite outside the town, there was a monk at the door of the store with a Zen stick, holding a clay pot, and headed towards the store, and soon the fat shopkeeper came out of the room, returned the gift to the monk, and took out a few iron coins and put them in the crockpot。
There was a burst of angry scolding from the woman in the alley not far from the next door, "This one killed a thousand knives and stole the old lady's private money to drink!"
A small shop selling tofu on the side of the road turned out to be a beautiful woman, and many people next to her called this woman "Tofu Shih", saying that the three sons of the mayor of the town were looking for "Tofu Shih Tzu" some time ago, and I don't know where she hid at that time, but she escaped the catastrophe.
Xue Dong entered the store and ordered a bowl of bean curd and sent it to him, which tasted good, at least much better than the bean curd he ate in the outside world.
But in this seemingly thriving and harmonious scene, there are always some people who are planning dark things. A middle-aged man with long hair carrying a long cloth bag and a lean young man beside him are plotting to rob people at night, and the target is "Tofu Shih Tzu". And these people even have an organization, more specifically not talked about.
However, since Xue Dong succeeded in refining qi, his ears and eyes were clear, and the whispers from a few feet away could not hide from him at all. The two conspiracy that no one thought anyone knew about were heard clearly by Xue Dong.
Because it was not dawn when Xue Dong left, dozens of miles of road could not be long for him, this time was the time when most people had breakfast, he threw down a piece of iron coin, left the store, and continued to wander around, walking around the town throughout the day, although there were wanted notices everywhere, but basically they were all arresting the cronies of Bijie in the past or people who were close to his cronies, and some were officials in the prefecture and county and their related personnel. It doesn't have much to do with ordinary people.
A small temple outside the town that had long been without monks was chosen by Xue Dong as a temporary foothold, and he planned to meet this organization for a while at night, and when night fell, Xue Dongchang slowly got up.
The streets of the town were deserted, and when they came to the vicinity of the tofu shop again, the time agreed by the two was approaching. Xue Dong hid under the eaves outside the door of the store, and after his cultivation was successful, the difficult movements he thought were now as simple as eating and drinking, he grabbed the eaves purlin lightly, and attached himself to it, and the whole person was lying under the tile, and he didn't feel laborious at all, no different from standing on the ground usually.
In a moment, two black shadows came speeding from the roof of the opposite house, exchanged words, and went straight to the tofu shop.
There was still a lamp in the house, and "Tofu Shih Tzu" was still doing something in the house; the lean man took out a bamboo pipe from his arms and blew wisps of white smoke through the crack in the window, and Xue Dong could hear the woman in the house yawn, as if she was sleepy.
After a few more moments, there was no movement, the long-haired man pulled out a dagger from his waist, picked out the plug through the crack in the door, and the lean man took out a long cloth bag, which was undoubtedly intended for human use.
Xue Dong stretched his hands and feet and looked into the door, the two of them were putting "Tofu Shih Tzu" into the cloth bag, their hands and feet were nimble, it seemed that they had done a lot of similar things.
The long-haired man carried the man, followed by the lean man, and closed the door when he went out, and the shop would fall silent again as the two departed, as if nothing had happened here.
Xue Dong didn't bother the two, he planned to follow the two of them closely, see where the lair of the two is, what kind of organization it is, and it will be in this small world for a long time in the future, he wants to know more about this world, but he was embarrassed when he tracked it, the two people in front of him landed silently, walking like the wind, and Xue Dong's voice when he landed from the eaves alarmed the two, which looked very oolong with the whole plan he started at this time.
Xue Dong looked at the two people who were full of vigilance in front of him, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Two, I said that I was just passing by here, do you believe it?"
The lean man sneered: "It's nonsense, I'm waiting to do something, but you are hiding aside, but at this moment you are deliberately appearing, what do you want?
The lean man didn't accept Xue Dong's humor, and it seemed that he regarded the sound made by Xue Dong as a deliberate appearance.
He didn't know that Xue Kong had a body of spiritual power, but he had never practiced the martial arts of the world, and he didn't know anything about light skills or body techniques, but he still wanted to follow them.
The two of them were originally in the line of Tianwumen Bijie, and they were the grandchildren of Bijie's apprentices, who were previously on an errand in the government, and after the fall of Bijie, the original lord of the mansion was cleaned up by the right prime minister, that is, Emperor Dehui, and the two were also on the wanted list.
Most of the survivors of the Bijie lineage got in touch and quickly gathered together, Bijie's little disciple Lu Tianxing is also a master of the inner family, "Changchun Gong" was practiced by him to the seventh layer, and the master of these two people, Yao Tian, in the second month of Bijie's reign as emperor, was killed because of his flattery in front of Bijie, so that Bijie thought that he had a bad heart and was killed, which can be described as the most wretched one. The two who worked on errands in the government were also implicated, and the lord of the mansion only used them as small soldiers, but Seon lost his horse, and he didn't know if it was a blessing, and the two escaped with their lives in the first wave of cleanup.
After Lu Tianxing gathered the Bijie lineage of Tianwumen, he also organized seventy or eighty people, the small world is vast and sparsely populated, and there are many no-man's lands, and the people of Tianwumen are even more proficient in this, and the Xia family has not been able to wipe them all out in the hundreds of years they have been there. A group of people hid in the mountains and forests, wanting to imitate Bijie, overthrow the Great Elder one day, and become the emperor himself.
Xue Dong looked at the two and said, "I have something to do with this woman, can you give me some face and hand her over to me?"
The long-haired man obviously didn't have that much patience, "The two of us also have something to do with this woman, if you don't want to die, go away, otherwise I will tell you to lie on the spot tonight." He drew the dagger at his waist.
Obviously, the two of them are not sure of Xue Dong's strength, you must know that there is a saying in the rivers and lakes, "If you don't have three thirds, you don't dare to go to Liangshan", although the two don't know what the hell Liangshan is, but the truth is like this, otherwise how dare they deliberately appear in front of the two, this person must think that he can eat the two.
The misunderstanding of "beautiful" made the two dare not act rashly, and for a while the two sides froze, Xue Dong looked at the two coldly, and was unmoved by the long-haired man's knife drawing. In fact, he doesn't have any attack skills, at most, he just sees the moves, and he didn't plan to fight the two of them. It's just that he overestimated himself.
The lean man didn't dare to confide in himself, he must know that it was no longer as good as before, and no one dared to reveal that he was a member of Tianwumen, so he didn't plan to ask Xue Dong's strength.
"Friend, since you are also interested in this girl, we might as well have a discussion," the lean man said tentatively.
