Chapter 2 Smell a Crane
Tian Xu didn't have time to look at the masked man who was still writhing on the ground, so he hurriedly went to see Qin Liqiang, and hurriedly helped him stop the bleeding, but the knife inserted in his right chest, he had no way and didn't dare to touch it easily.
Qin Liqiang coughed up blood again and again, and reluctantly said: "Little junior brother, don't toss, my heart has been broken, it's useless, there will be no senior brothers in the future, you can only rely on yourself." ”
Tian Xu knew that Senior Brother was telling the truth, so he couldn't help but burst into tears and asked, "Senior Brother, which sect are they?"
Qin Liqiang shook his head lightly and said, "You are not from the cultivation world, and it is no good to ask, it is good to be an ordinary person......" His head hung and passed away.
When Tian Xu turned around to look at the masked man again, the man had already lost his breath. He was unwilling, and carried the green jade soft sword to check the doors of the room, only to see that the third senior brother and the fourth senior brother had been killed in the room, and it should have been done by these two men in black.
Tian Xu searched the bodies of the two men in black, but there were no clues, and the short swords used by the two were also ordinary things, and there was no useful information. I had to strip the two of them naked and take detailed photos of all parts of their bodies, in order to slowly find clues.
Tian Xu moved the bodies of the four senior brothers to the hall on the first floor one by one, knelt in front of the four spirits and said: "The four senior brothers are in the Heavenly Spirit Enlightenment, and the junior brother swears here that he will definitely find an enemy in this life and avenge you." Parents in the spirit of heaven, please bless the child with success. ”
Tian Xu came to the secret room where the soul cards were placed, and saw that the soul cards of the four senior brothers had all been broken, and only his own piece was still standing there alone. He picked up his soul card and checked it, and said with a wry smile: "I'm the only one left, what's the use of this thing?" As he spoke, he smashed the soul card on the bluestone table and smashed it to pieces. took the five bank cards that his father had left for his five people, as well as a note with the password of the cultivation network account, and returned to the hall.
He finally saluted the bodies of his brothers, poured a bucket of gasoline on them and lit them, and then left.
Tian Xu did not take the main road of the mountain pass, but climbed the back mountain and left along a path he used to collect medicine in the mountain. After climbing over the mountain, he did not immediately go far, but hid in a cave and turned on his tablet to surf the Internet. It is not far from the satellite base station in the back mountain, and after turning another hill, there is no signal.
He used Senior Brother's account to log in to the cultivation network. This is a discourse/forum in the cultivation world, like an online bazaar, where all kinds of information and cultivation resources can be exchanged and traded. There is also a forum where you can communicate freely.
When he opened the forum, he saw that the news of his father's failed escape had filled the entire forum.
He entered the task release interface, created a new reward task, pasted the facial photos of the two men in black, and offered a reward of 50 million yuan to identify the identities of the two people.
This kind of reward recognition task is a relatively common category, and it is also the easiest to complete, as long as you know it, you can complete it. Therefore, the bounty value is generally not too high, most of them are around 100,000 yuan, and it is quite rare for Tian Xu to directly post an ultra-high bounty of 50 million yuan.
After posting the task, Tian Xu turned off the computer and set off to walk into the distance. His destination is Qin City, which is a hundred miles away, and the cultivation world has an agreement not to interfere with the lives of ordinary people, and only by entering the big city can he become an ordinary person again, and his safety is basically guaranteed.
Tian Xu subconsciously touched the green jade soft sword on his waist, and his heart was a lot quieter. This green jade soft sword was left to him by his father before he went out to ascend, and it is a high-grade holy weapon, the material is not gold or jade, and the shape is like a belt, which can pass the aviation security check. In today's cultivation world, such a top-grade holy weapon is extremely rare.
With all his might, he climbed two mountain beams in succession and came to the vicinity of a shack where he used to collect medicine and rest. From here, over a hill to the east, there is a road. He is going to rest here for a night, and tomorrow he will go to the side of the highway to take a ride to Qindu.
Turning a corner of a mountain, the shack in the distance was already in sight, and suddenly, Tian Xu felt a creepy feeling on his back, and his body seemed to be stared at by an ancient beast, and he didn't even have the courage to move. He barely turned around and hid behind a large rock on the side of the road.
At this time, there was a burst of laughter on the hillside on the left: "Hahahaha, little guy, don't hide, come with me obediently, I've been waiting for you for a long time." ”
Tian Xu came out from behind the stone, and when he turned his head to look, he saw a masked black-clothed man standing there on the hillside on the left, holding a broad-bladed short sword more than a foot long in his hand. He suddenly felt something in his heart, and when he looked back, he saw that there was also a man in the same costume behind him, and there was also an identical short sword hanging from his waist, and he jumped towards him, and his body was surprisingly fast, almost catching up with the speed of the second senior brother Wang Song.
"It's over," Tian Xu said secretly in his heart, "If you can't beat it, you can't run away." "There are two people on the other side, and they can't do it with a sneak attack with the Qingyu soft sword.
Unwilling to restrain his hands, he drew his long sword and prepared to meet the opponent. The Tai Chi swordsmanship passed down by his father was good at guarding the royal family, and he might not be able to resist it for a while in front of the Qi Gathering Monk.
The man who rushed from behind didn't draw his sword at all, and when he was still two or three steps away from Tian Xu, he suddenly raised his hands, and a gust of wind rushed to his chest. Tian Xu was pushed by the strong wind and staggered, and before he could stand firmly, the other party had already rushed to him and slapped his chest and abdomen. Tian Xu's breath stagnated, and he fell to the ground, unable to move. Facing a qi gathering master who can release his strength, his cultivation at the seventh level of his forging body is not much different from that of ordinary people.
At this time, the masked man on the hillside also ran over, stretched out his hand to lift Tian Xu, who was restrained, and walked towards the shack in the distance first.
At this moment, a cold light flashed on a big tree on the side of the road, and the black-clothed man who walked behind him who knocked down Tian Xu fell to the ground without saying a word, and the blood on the back of his neck spurted up more than a person like a fountain.
At the same time, a gray figure jumped down from the tree and pounced towards the masked man carrying Tian Xu. The big man threw away Tian Xu who was holding in his hand and turned to meet the enemy.
At this moment, Tian Xu's forehead hit a stone, and his head was bleeding. He didn't care about this, and barely opened his eyes to see the two people who were fighting.
I saw the masked man wielding the broadsword in his hand, slashing fiercely at the gray-clothed man who sneaked up. The gray-clothed man made a slender scimitar, and his body was erratic, and he did not fight hard with the big man. After the two fought for a while, the man in gray suddenly laughed, got up and ran away, no longer fighting the masked man. When the masked man turned around, Tian Xu saw that a hole had been made in his chest, and blood was constantly spurting out, and he saw that he was not alive. The big man knew that he was not lucky, and suddenly flicked his right hand, and the broadsword in his hand turned into a streamer and shot towards Tian Xu. Tian Xu couldn't move, and with an "ah", he screamed.
Seeing this, the gray-clothed man shrank his body and grabbed Tian Xu, he was faster than the broadsword that flew over, before the broadsword nailed Tian Xu to the ground, he used a thin knife to hit the broadsword, and the broadsword turned in a different direction, sticking to Tian Xu's ears and sticking to the ground, and even the handle did not enter the ground.
The masked man was no longer able to fight, and said hatefully: "Wen Yihe, my master will not let you go." ”
The man in gray smiled and said, "I heard that Yihe has been alone all his life, and I am afraid of who will come." ”
It was only at this time that Tian Xu knew that this gray-clothed man with a strange style was Wen Yihe, a lone killer known as the "Shadow Demon" in the cultivation world.
As for the two masked men, although they were dressed similarly to the two people who attacked his house, their weapons and martial arts were obviously different, and they should not be all the way.
Wen Yihe kicked Tian Xu, kicked him to lie down, and asked, "It's Tian Chuan's only son, right?" Say, where is the cultivation secret left by your father?"
"Sure enough, it's a crime. Tian Xu thought in his heart, and replied truthfully: "My father said that I have no cultivation talent, and he didn't pass on any cultivation secrets to me, otherwise I wouldn't only have the seventh layer of forging body." ”
Wen Yihe didn't believe it, so he tore off the backpack that Tian Xu was carrying behind his back, dumped the contents on the ground, checked them one by one, and after confirming that there was nothing he was looking for, he touched the pocket on his body.
After Tian Xu was restrained, he had been running the Heart Purification Mantra, trying to open the sealed meridians, but the time was too short, and he was just a little loose at this time, and he couldn't exert his strength. He was anxious in his heart, if the Qingyu soft sword was searched, he would not have the slightest chance to fight back.
Just when Tian Xu had nothing to do, Wen Yihe had already turned out the mobile phone, wallet, and keys in his pocket, threw them aside, and then touched a jasper pendant hanging around his neck.
Tian Xu was in a hurry, this pendant was left to him by his mother/parents, and he asked him to give this thing to someone who was destined. He didn't understand what it meant to be destined to be a person, so he kept hanging it around his neck. At this time, Tian Xu had already regarded this thing as a souvenir of his mother/relatives, and he definitely didn't want to be taken away by the other party.
Wen Yihe pulled Jasper Ding out of Tian Xu's jacket and pulled hard, trying to break Xiao Ding's lanyard. At this moment, a warm current rose from Tian Xu's chest and quickly penetrated his whole body, and his sealed meridians suddenly opened.
Xiao Ding's lanyard was quite strong, Tian Xu's upper body was pulled off the ground, and the rope was not broken. Just when Wen Yihe was surprised, the real accident happened.
A flying knife, with a strong wind, flew straight towards the back of Wen Yihe's neck. Wen Yihe waved the thin knife in his hand, pushed the flying knife away, and then let go of Tian Xu, and turned his head to look in the direction where the flying knife was shot.
Tian Xu's right hand was on his waist, and the green jade soft sword was already out of the sheath, and when he saw someone coming, he took advantage of the fact that he was thrown on the ground by Wen Yihe, and inserted the soft sword back into the sheath, and also looked in the direction of the flying knife, only to see two people, one tall and one short, both carrying a basket containing herbs, and wearing earthy yellow cover-up clothes, like two ancient people.
These two people each had a long sword hanging from their waists, a middle-aged and a young man, both of whom had a righteous face. I only heard the older tall man shouting: "Wen Yihe, I didn't expect you to live more and more without a lower limit, how can you bully ordinary people?"
Wen Yihe was obviously very jealous of these two people, and said with a knife on guard: "It seems that the attraction of Tian's Taijiquan is stronger than I imagined, not only is a villain like me interested, but the dignified Kunlun faction has also made a move." ”
The middle-aged man was furious when he heard this, put down the back basket behind him, drew his sword and said: "I miss Kunlun, there is more than one immortal who has ascended, how can I care about a failed ascension of the Scattered Cultivation Method, when we are like you with such a narrow vision? You dare to insult my Kunlun like this, aren't you afraid of my Kunlun's sword?"
Wen Yihe sneered: "The most annoying thing is that you so-called decent people, who don't dare to say what they want to do, are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and have a belly full of men and prostitutes." ”
The middle-aged man on the opposite side was furious, and without saying a word, he slashed at Wen Yihe with his sword. Wen Yihe did not confront him head-on, carried out light work, and circled with him from afar, the middle-aged man couldn't catch up for a while, and he was so angry that he yelled.
The young man from the Kunlun faction did not step forward to help, but just stood beside Tian Xu to guard, Wen Yihe tried to get close to Tian Xu several times, but was blocked by the young man.
