Chapter 266: The Situation in Northern Xinjiang

After speaking, Chen Jianping took the lead, and the three of them slowly crossed the river and came to a relatively hidden boulder.

I saw that this person was the masked strange man that Chen Jianping and the others met in the tavern when they just entered southern Xinjiang.

I saw that he was still wearing a seamless thin leather mask, and a gray robe was tightly wrapped, and the whole person exuded a sense of mystery.

When this strange man saw Chen Jianping, he smiled, and said in a dumb voice: "Master Chen, you made such a big move, not only got things, but also blew up the Hundred Flowers Valley, which had already become a ruin, again, which was really amazing!"

Chen Jian's face sank, and he said secretly: "Could it be that the people of the world have carried all the bombing of the Baihua Valley tomb on my head?"

However, he didn't bother to explain, and said coldly to the strange man in front of him: "According to our previous agreement, as long as I get something, I will agree to your three requests, two of which have been completed, and the remaining one, but I can't hurry!"

The strange man smiled and said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say! Master Chen is trustworthy and righteous!"

Chen Jianping smiled slightly, and said lightly: "Mr. has won the award!"

The next moment, the strange man was suddenly stunned, slid a step to the left like a ghost, and then moved backwards with great agility, and Wu Datong and Nalan Yue didn't react to what was going on.

At this time, the tip of the bell sword in Chen Jianping's hand had already pressed against the throat of this strange man.

This strange person was shocked, and he didn't react for a long time, but he saw that Chen Jianping's left shoulder was slightly moving, and immediately slid to the left as quickly as possible, and this slip was naturally aimed at Wu Datong on the left.

He originally wanted to catch Wu Datong as a shield, but his own technique was fast, but the scabbard in Chen Jianping's hand was faster, and it was like a snake pointing towards his heart.

At this critical moment, this strange man suddenly retreated, and it was not too unusual to say that Chen Jianping rushed over to stop him.

But the most unbelievable thing for this strange man was that the speed at which he retreated was extremely fast, but the tip of Chen Jianping's sword was not chasing him and stabbing him, but waiting for him steadily where he was about to stop.

This strange man retreated suddenly, intending to move, the person arrived at the tip of the sword, not a fraction, the scabbard blocked, the long sword was handed out, and there were at least five moves in the whole process, but these five moves were completed between the peaks, as fast as an action.

This strange man had a thin mask on his face, so he naturally couldn't see his expression clearly, but at this time, the tip of the sword was against his throat, and he swallowed lightly, and said incredulously: "You...... How did you do it, it can't be!"

Chen Jianping was also slightly surprised by his fast sword in his heart, if a few days ago, he might not have been able to do it so quickly, even if he did it reluctantly, he would definitely not be as smooth as he is now.

Ever since he saw the sixty sword moves demonstrated by Yun Xiaotian in the tomb passage, his comprehension and use of sword moves and sword techniques in his heart seemed to have been raised to a new level.

In the past few days, although Chen Jianping has been troubled, after calming down a little, the sword moves that Yun Xiaotian danced seemed to reappear in front of his eyes, recalling them in his mind over and over again.

As the saying goes: "One law, one hundred laws!" Chen Jianping's comprehension is extremely high, and he has been cultivated for several years under famous masters such as Lu Zhengshan.

He only felt that although Yun Xiaotian only demonstrated sixty sword techniques, every time he recalled it, he would have a new harvest, and every time he recalled it, he would have a new understanding.

Although Yun Xiaotian repented at the last moment, and Chen Jianping was quite embarrassed about what happened to him, he still had a very prejudiced prejudice against him in his heart, but only in terms of martial arts attainments, Chen Jianping admired Yun Xiaotian more and more.

In the past few days, Chen Jianping always felt that he had some understanding in his heart, and when he never forgot it, he swayed it, and his swordsmanship was greatly improved, and he was also happy in his heart.

The strange man saw that Chen Jianping didn't answer, and asked tentatively: "What's the matter?

Chen Jianping's eyes were cold, and the strange man slammed into his heart, and suddenly Chen Jianping snorted slightly, and the tip of the sword was raised, and it was removed from the strange man's throat, and then, Chen Jianping pulled a sword flower and returned the sword into the sheath.

After a while, this strange person moved his hands and feet very uncomfortably, and Chen Jianping said in a deep voice: "You should know about the mysterious organization in Southern Xinjiang, right? Rashomon will sneak into the tomb of the Hundred Flowers Valley, you should also know, right?"

This strange man's eyes touched Chen Jianping and immediately dodged it, and he secretly said in his heart: "No wonder, it turns out that this Chen Jianping blames me for not telling the truth!"

Thinking of this, his heart relaxed slightly, and he said with a little embarrassment: "Master Chen, it turns out that you blame me for these things, I admit it, I naturally know all this, and I also admit that as a friend, I am really not righteous enough to do this, but I want to ask, Master Chen, are we friends?"

Chen Jianping sighed slightly, it was really difficult to reply to this strange question.

The strange man tilted his head and said: "Master Chen, no matter from that point of view, what you and I do is a transaction, I will make an offer, if you think it is appropriate, I will pass on the information you need to you, this is reasonable, as for other things, I can tell you, but the price code has to be renegotiated!"

Wu Datong said angrily: "What? Do you want to sit on the ground and ask for more money?"

When this strange man heard Wu Datong's words, he laughed suddenly, looked at Chen Jianping and said, "Money? Master Chen, will people like you and me be short of money? What is the use of money for us?"

Wu Datong frowned beside him, and said loudly: "You don't talk nonsense, how can we not understand this truth, but I think you are a two-faced person, maybe, when you sold us information, you also sold our information to Rashomon, so we were restricted everywhere in the Hundred Flowers Valley Tomb this time!"

Chen Jianping waved his hand, signaling Wu Datong not to say any more, he also secretly laughed in his heart that he was too impulsive, as this weirdo said, this was originally a transaction, and this person did not do anything wrong.

Chen Jianping waved his hand impatiently and said, "It's useless to talk more, what are the new trends in Northern Xinjiang?"

The strange man smiled and said, "Master Chen doesn't need to test me, what you are most concerned about at the moment is naturally Nalan Ming's affairs, why don't you ask me directly?"

Nalan Yue patted the nine-rank divine sword on her waist and said angrily: "What nonsense, if you know something, say it quickly!"

This person looked at Nalan Yue strangely, and he didn't care if he was reprimanded, and said slowly: "At present, there are about seventy sects in Northern Xinjiang, all of which are gathered under Nalan Ming's command, and listen to his orders, this force has not yet shown its banner, but at present, its strength should not be underestimated, and it can almost change the current pattern!"

Nalan Yue frowned and said, "Really, although Nalan Ming is a little clever, can he have this ability?"

The strange man spoke: "Actually, the real driving force behind it is Rashomon, presumably you already know this, but Rashomon's move is not a small risk!"

Chen Jianping asked, "What do you mean?"

The strange man said: "Although Rashomon is the driving force behind the scenes, Rashomon is already difficult to move an inch in the Central Plains, and they can't do anything on the surface, so they will support Nalan Ming, but because of a series of changes, Nalan Ming has formed a common hatred with various factions in Northern Xinjiang, and his prestige is quite high!"

Chen Jianping nodded slightly and said, "In other words, Nalan Ming is also cultivating his own power with the help of Rashomon, can he threaten Rashomon at present?"

The strange man pondered for a moment and said: "It's hard to say, but according to the current trend, it is a matter of time before Rashomon surpasses him, and Rashomon should be able to see this, but at the moment they still need this Nalan Ming, so it's not good to take action!"

Chen Jianping breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "That's good, whether it's a sect or an organization, the external enemy is terrible, but the most terrible thing is the internal split, no matter how powerful the Northern Xinjiang Fusion faction is, as long as they are not monolithic, there is no need to worry!"

The strange man nodded and said, "Having said that, but we must not be unguarded, once all the sects in Northern Xinjiang are gathered together, their strength is enough to compete with any force in the world!"

Chen Jianping nodded and asked, "So, Nalan Ming came to the Central Plains this time to show his banner?"

The strange man said: "This should be one of his purposes, but I don't have exact information at hand, so I can't figure out his real purpose, but with my current understanding of Northern Xinjiang, his trip is nothing more than three purposes!"
