Chapter 269: The Beginning of the War
As a double agent, how could Ren Xiao really kill Chen Ning, but Shi Yan was watching him from the side, and he had to think of a foolproof plan.
Seeing that Ren Xiao hesitated for a moment, Nangong hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Won't you be okay if you kill him?" Nangong Chuyan's rhetorical question made Shi Yan hesitate a little, but after a while, he said: "Let's kill him! Otherwise, sooner or later he will know that I drugged him!"
Nangong snatched the breeze and fallen leaves from Ren Xiao's hand and stabbed them directly into Chen Ning's body.
At this time, Shi Yan had already fallen to the ground from his injuries, and before he fell unconscious, he said to Ren Xiao: "This thing will take you out!" Ren Xiao looked at the strip of cloth in his hand and nodded.
"Let's go!" Ren Xiao called Nangong, and the two immediately turned around and left.
In the silent Nine Palace Bagua Array, Shi Yan's signs of life became weaker and weaker, and suddenly a figure appeared beside him.
Half a moon later, in the maple forest. Wu Yueang found Ren Xiao again.
"Here, this is what you want! What about the reward promised to me?" Wu Yueang looked at the several strips of cloth that Ren Xiao handed over, which depicted in detail the different layouts of the entire Nine Palaces Bagua.
"The Xinghuo Cold Knife really lives up to its reputation, and it can come and go freely in the Taoist Nine Palace Bagua Array, I'm afraid that practicing the Night Moon Soul is not your opponent!" Wu Yueang said with a low chuckle. Ren Xiao didn't pay any attention to his praise, but begged for his own reward.
"Brother Ren, don't worry, I will definitely give you a lot of money, but before this, I, Wu Yueang, on behalf of Bai Ye, sincerely invited you to join the gang, I don't know what you think?" Wu Yueang naturally had his own plans when he said this, but Ren Xiao couldn't guess what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.
Ren Xiao hugged the back of his head with both hands and said, "I have heard a lot about your White Night, and I admit that it is an honor to be invited by you, but in this situation, I don't want to be involved in the struggle between these forces of you!" Wu Yueang was not discouraged by Ren Xiao's refusal, and continued: "Brother Ren has already been regarded as the number one target by Taoists for stealing "Five Thousand Words", and now he has broken into the Wuji View Nine Palace Bagua Array several times in a row, which is undoubtedly throwing the face of the largest sect in the Taoist world on the ground and rubbing it. I think the Taoists will definitely not let you go, now Hengyu and the masters of the Taoist family are almost all fighting with me in the white night, if they are finished, I think the next target of the Taoist will definitely be you, brother, at the moment you are not a problem to deal with these minions of the Taoist, but what to do when Hengyu comes back, so I personally think that if you have our white night as a backing, I think the Taoist will not be able to help you!"
After listening to Wu Yueang's words, Ren Xiao said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this, I have my own plans, if you continue to want to pull me into the gang, then I have to send me off!" Now that Ren Xiao had already expressed his attitude, Wu Yueang had no choice but to give up and said: "Okay, if you don't want to, I won't force it, I will let people send the reward tomorrow!
Suddenly, Wu Yueang, who was gradually moving away, suddenly stopped, watching him slowly turn around, Ren Xiao's heart suddenly rose to his throat again.
"Although I know that Brother Ren is strong, I still want to try it in the future!" Before the words fell, I saw Wu Yueang
The index finger of his left hand shook slightly, Ren Xiao felt that there was something strange around him, and after a closer look, he found that the mud and stone flows from all directions were surging towards him, and the momentum was huge, Ren Xiao was a little stunned when he saw this, he didn't know how to respond, Nangong Chuyan saw this scene and knew that this kind of scene was not something that the strength of the two could deal with, so he kicked lightly under his feet, and a stone hit the back of Ren Xiao's hand, and then his arm was involuntarily raised.
Nangong took the opportunity to take out "Five Thousand Words" and then input the internal force into it, and stomped on it, only to see that all the words in the scroll floated to the ground, and then arranged into a gossip to protect the two, and the mudslide was blocked out of the gossip. Nangong said in a low voice: "Hurry up and make another move!" Ren Xiao didn't react, just frowned, and Nangong continued to use the power of the scroll to dissolve the surrounding mudslide, and the destroyed landform was restored to its original state.
"Hahaha, it's really amazing! Brother Ren's strength is probably above me, it seems that he deliberately fell for my move a few days ago, I really don't know Taishan with my eyes! offended!" Wu Yueang turned around and left after speaking, and his eyes turned around at an angle that Ren Xiao couldn't see, as if he noticed something.
"Whew! It was so dangerous just now, I almost showed a flaw!" Nangong Chuyan wiped the sweat from his forehead. Ren Xiao didn't even mention how panicked he was just now, and said as if he had escaped death: "How did you do it just now?
"Where did I do this, it's all the credit of this scroll, if it weren't for it, we would have been buried in a mudslide!" Nangong took out "Five Thousand Words" and showed it to Ren Xiao. The latter sighed: "The treasure of Taoism is really extraordinary! I thought it was just a secret book, but I didn't expect it to be such a powerful magic weapon!"
Just as Ren Xiao and the others were talking about "Five Thousand Words", a voice came from behind, which frightened the two of them. "Now is not the time to talk about this, hurry up with me to catch up with Wu Yueang and see how many men and horses he has prepared for the attack on Xuanwu Mountain this time?"
It was none other than Zhong Liyan, who had been hiding in the Xuanwu Mountain.
"Brother Zhongli, you finally appeared!" Ren Xiao said in surprise. But the other party said: "You can't see me, but I look at you every day!
Zhong Liyan had already rushed forward when he spoke, and Ren Xiao and Nangong had no choice but to hurriedly follow him.
"Brother Zhongli, do you know everything that happened to us?" asked Ren Xiao.
"Of course, if it weren't for the protection of "Five Thousand Words" just now, I would have to make a secret move!"
After hearing Zhong Liyan say this, Ren Xiao instantly felt much safer, and asked again, "What about Big Brother Tong?"
"The undercover agent is not only hidden among the Taoist disciples, but also among the common people, there are also a lot of their eyeliners, Tong Qian went to check on them!" Zhong Liyan glanced at Nangong again after speaking, and said to her: "Thank you for this time, I didn't have a bottom in my heart when I let Ren Xiao do this alone." Nangong naturally saw from Zhong Liyan's outfit that he was a guard in the capital, and then learned from Ren Xiao's mouth that this person's surname was Zhong Li, so she could be sure that the person in front of her must be Zhong Liyan, the famous "Miracle Hundred Swords" on the rivers and lakes.
Nangong smiled and said, "I have admired the name of my predecessors for a long time, and I am praised for it, but I just happened to meet Ren Xiao." Zhong Liyan said
He said: "No coincidence is not a book! Now we have to cheer up, we have to change from a dark war to an open war!"
On the other side, the Taoist also learned about all the undercover agents mixed in the defensive team under Ren Xiao's hint, and these people had all been locked up in the Taoist's own cell under the secret handling of Ye Lan and Jueran. On this day, Ye Lan also reported something to Li Yongxu.
"Uncle Shi, Yixian has not come back for two days under the pretext of going down the mountain to buy things!"
"It seems that Bai Ye is about to make a move! Ye Lan, you send some more people to take care of those spies, and you must not let any of them go!" Ye Lan gave up his hand, and then went to do it immediately. Li Yongxu said to Jue Ran again: "Jue Ran, you go down the mountain to help Ren Xiao and the capital guard them! I think they must have found the den of the white night by now!"
Jueran hesitated for a moment, and said: "Uncle Shi, let's let Ye Lan go! It must be familiar with them, besides, the master explained before leaving, so that I can't take half a step out of Xuanwu Mountain, I must protect you and the entire Wuji Temple!" Li Yongxu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Hahaha, look at my memory, I have forgotten your master's entrustment, so let Ye Lan go down the mountain!"
On the branches of the moon, Zhong Liyan, Ren Xiao and Nangong Chuyan squatted on a big tree, Zhong Liyan looked at the surrounding woods, and faintly felt a trace of unease, and the intuition of the rivers and lakes for many years told him that this was not the place he should come.
"Oh no, we have to get out of here!" Zhong Liyan finally decided to get out of here first.
"Why? We haven't found White Night's troops yet!" Ren Xiao was puzzled. Nangong saw the crisis from Zhong Liyan's face and said, "He's right, let's withdraw first!"
As soon as the words fell, Zhong Liyan sensed that danger had come. "Get out of the way!"
Four figures suddenly appeared around the three of them, and it was impossible to retreat with their whole bodies, and Zhong Liyan clearly saw that these four people had the word "array" mark on their bodies.
"Chasing the Wind Arrow!" one of them, with superb short hair and few eyebrows barely visible, squinted his eyes and shot three arrows at the three at once. Seeing that Zhong Liyan was about to make a move, Nangong hurriedly pushed Ren Xiao and said, "It's a feint, you go!" Ren Xiao and Zhong Liyan reacted immediately, and Ren Xiao drew his sword to meet him.
"Zhong Liyan, I didn't expect to lure you out, what an accident!" It was a strong man who was eight feet tall who spoke, and it was intimidating to see the two toothed broadswords in his hands.
"You are Mo Ji (Yue)?I thought you were dead a long time ago, but I didn't expect you to be alive!" Zhong Liyan had some intersections with this Mo Yao when he walked the rivers and lakes a few years ago, so he recognized it.
"Hmph, what's nonsense with him, let's go together!" A man with a leopard's head ringed eyes took the lead in rushing towards Zhongli Yan.
"Don't underestimate me!" Zhongli Yanjian saw that the person who rushed up was the bandit leader Tsukasa Lin who had been surrounded and suppressed by the lord of the country five years ago. smiled: "I didn't catch you five years ago, but I dare to send it to the door in person today!"
In just a few words, Zhong Liyan had discovered the common characteristics of these four people, all of whom were former fugitives.
Mo Yao, who tortured and killed officials, Tsukasa Lin, the leader of the bandits, Feng Luoting, who shot an arrow just now, and the woman who hid behind the three of them and only showed her eyes, I am afraid that it is Tanakai, a Dongying man who has gone undercover in the capital.
