Volume 1 Journey to the World Chapter 13 Killing and Being Killed
At night, the moon is dark and the wind is high.
Under the reflection of the hazy moonlight, the entire heaven and earth of the Ziwei Sect seemed to be smeared with a layer of hazy mist, except for one corner that was not dyed with the slightest moonlight.
At night, only pitch black remained in the Meditation Cliff, because of the prohibition, this cliff was a small world alone, and everything in the outside world could not be entered, including the moonlight.
The mysterious young man in black could come and go as if he were in and out of his own home.
In the entire Ziwei Sect, except for the people of Tianyi, there must be no second person who could enter and exit the Meditation Cliff so casually.
This is also the reason why Su Wu can trust this young man, if it weren't for the trust of Tianyi Zhenren, this young mysterious person would never be able to sneak into the Meditation Cliff so easily.
The young man had clearly told Su Wu that he was here to help him kill, not to kill.
Now that night had fallen, except for the Tranquility Cliff, which was still glowing, everyone else and everything in this cramped place was completely obscured by the moonlight.
In the dark night with no fingers visible, there is no doubt that it is the best environment to kill.
Su Wu pretended to close his eyes and did not move, pretending to have entered the path of determination, but in fact, he was just making an illusion, his whole body had tensed into a cheetah that would attack at any time, and the sound of a leaf falling would attract his attention.
After breaking through to the Mortal Realm, Su Wu gained hearing and insight that was 100 times more than 1000 times before.
Any disturbance within fifty meters would fall into his ears as soon as possible, except for the mysterious young man, although he knew that the young man was beside him, Su Wu really couldn't feel the slightest trace of aura emanating from him.
He was like a dead man who had lost his breath, like a lonely shadow, forever hiding in the darkness, unable to see the sunshine of the world.
At this time, the young man was lying in the deep grass, and as soon as anything that took away life came within ten meters of Su Wu, he would wipe it out.
This is his task, the task given to him by the people of Tianyi.
The head of the Ziwei Sect, who was high up in the sky every day and had the bones of the Immortal Wind Dao, entrusted him with all the dirty hard work.
He is the most powerful sword in Tianyi's life, he is always hidden in the dark, and every time he can help Tianyi secretly deal with the most troublesome things, and since he killed someone, there has not been a single mistake.
The young man is a swordsman, but he is more like a dead man.
The night is getting deeper and quieter.
The biting cold wind danced wildly on the dark grass, rolling up countless grass clippings.
The wind is blowing.
The sudden gale made Su Wu's ears a little inaudible, and the rumbling wind gradually filled his ears.
This gale seems to have been deliberately arranged, and it came at the right time, and there was no intention of stopping.
Su Wu, who was originally as calm as water, instantly became flustered after hearing the sound of the wind filling his ears.
But the more critical the moment, the less reckless he could be, and he still sat like a sculpture, as if he didn't know anything about everything around him.
The wind is still blowing, and the one who wants to kill has not come, and the one who wants to be killed has not come.
In the heaven and earth where the cold wind roared, it seemed that there was only a thousand years of meditation left, and there was still his lonely shadow.
......
Around the warm small fire, several teenagers in blue robes rubbed their hands and dozed off.
Each of them looked tired, but their eyes flashed with a sharp and alert light.
They're pretending to be sleepy, they're waiting for someone, waiting for the person who arranges for them to do things.
The cold wind ruffled their long inky hair, and even their faces turned red and purple, but they still insisted on waiting.
Because they had to wait, and the person they were waiting for was so important that they could put their lives on the line.
After a long time, the man they had been waiting for finally came.
The person they were waiting for was also a tall and thin teenager, but the difference was that the boy they were waiting for contained a lofty arrogance in both his demeanor and conversation.
The young man was dressed in a red gown, with a few glimmering night pearls hanging from his waist, as if he was a noble son.
"Tonight I hope you can come to me with Su Wu's head, if not, half an arm is fine. But if you come back empty-handed, be prepared to apologize to me with your own head. ”
This high-ranking boy did not show any gratitude to the teenagers who had been waiting for him for half the night, and spoke in a commanding tone, as if the master was ordering the servants.
"A few of us will definitely cut off that kid's head today and give it to Yun Gongzi with our own hands, and ask Yun Gongzi to give more benefits to the little ones. A tall young man who took the lead answered the nobleman's question diligently, and fell to his knees to show his absolute loyalty.
"Okay, but remember not to use the word 'cloud' when calling me next time, so as not to arouse more suspicion from others, forget it this time, if you are still so hasty next time, be careful that your head can't be saved." The eyes of the mysterious young man called Yun Gongzi suddenly looked around like a falcon, and after confirming that no one was eavesdropping, he touched the head of the young man kneeling in front of him and continued.
After explaining these words, Yun Gongzi grinded out three round beads of the same size and shape from his arms, and placed them in the palms of the three teenagers.
After doing this, he instructed again: "These three talisman beads can invalidate the prohibition arranged by the head of the Jingxin Cliff in one stick of incense, and you are bound to take down Su Wu's head in this stick of incense time." ”
"There is only Su Wu in the cliff who is cultivating alone, although you can rest assured, you don't need to be afraid too much. ”
With that, the young man turned around and disappeared into the cold night wind, leaving only a few flute-headed teenagers who were still standing in place.
They are about to accomplish something that seems to be a sure thing, but is actually very dangerous.
Upon completion, each of them will receive a Yufu Pill that they have only heard of but have never seen, and thus move to a higher and farther realm.
......
The wind was blowing stronger and stronger, and although the Meditation Cliff was still so quiet that a drop of dew falling on the grass would produce a sound, Su Wu really couldn't hear the slightest sound outside the Meditation Cliff except for the wind.
Needless to say, Su Wu, even Wutian, who had been dormant on the Meditation Cliff for an unknown amount of time, began to gradually lose his patience, he had never experienced an assassination under such harsh conditions.
Normally, he takes the initiative to assassinate others, but today he has to wait for others to strike first to face the target he wants to protect.
It's not a simple matter.
At the moment when the wind reached its peak, the three teenagers holding talismans finally came.
They first approached quietly at a speed that was imperceptible to the naked eye in the dark, and waited until they were almost at the edge of the cliff and then stopped, deliberately holding their breath.
Su Wu didn't know that the person who was going to kill him had come, and he was still pretending to meditate.
The young man in black who was hiding in the deep grass did not know that those people had come, because he had no habit of waiting for others to kill him, and he had no experience.
No one had too many places, and the three of them who came to kill Su Wu and the three peak boys of the Knot Rope Realm directly broke through the prohibition.
The darkness that could not be seen seemed to have any effect on their eyes, and they quickly found Su Wu's location, and approached as quickly as a poisonous snake.
All three of them were good practitioners with knives, and of all knives they were the best at small knives, because they were the easiest and sharpest to stab in the dark, often slitting their prey's throat before they could speak.
Su Wu has now become the prey of the one who is about to be chopped up, although no matter how dense the king's domineering qi is restored on his body, it will not work.
Because these three cultivators, who had been practicing the way of assassins since childhood, would definitely grasp that short fatal gap.
The void of Su Wu's pranayama.
By the time Su Wu next breathed, the blade they held in their hands would definitely cut through Su Wu's throat, and then cut off Su Wu's entire head with a reverse blade.
The faces of the Assassins, who felt that they were bound to win, had already turned a smug dark color under the black scarf.
In the dead of night, they looked at Su Wu, who was about to breathe, as if they were looking at a corpse that had been separated from his head and neck.
