The moon is cool and the night is forested.

In the ancestral land of the Jiang family, if there is a cold wind blowing, the strange shadows on the ground are incredibly distorted.

The three of them walked to the tomb of the head of the Jiang family, and finally realized that something was wrong: in the dark, a faint green light came from the tombstone.

"Oh no, he hasn't left yet. ”

Xie Jun reminded nervously in a whisper, took advantage of the situation to hide in the grass on the side, and disappeared from the field of vision of the two.

Before Si Quan and the others understood what Xie Jun said, they had already seen a shadow in front of the grave slowly clear.

"Trickery"

In order to hide the timidity in her heart, Tianxue pulled out her thin sword and killed it. This time, the other party had already prepared, and the illusory hand actually showed a handful of iron ge, and he really caught Tianxue's move.

There was a bang, and sparks burst out. The ghost's whole body shook, obviously shaken by the internal force of the snow. While keeping an eye on the safety of Tianxue, Si Quan blocked the direction of the ghost's escape.

In addition to pretending to be scary, the ghost's martial arts are no more than the second-rate realm of the rivers and lakes, which is Tianxue's opponent. Dozens of moves have passed, and he is already in danger.

"Bang!"

The ghost shadow was injured and fell to the ground, obviously it was just a black shadow, but it smashed into the ground with a muffled sound.

Soon, Si Quan knew that the ghost shadow had reached the point of exhaustion, and strictly guarded the direction in which he might disappear, and suddenly noticed that the grass around him was moving slightly, and it was not the wind blowing at all.

Tianxue had the upper hand, and the fear of the ghost suddenly disappeared for the most part, and when he chased and slashed towards the ghost shadow with victory, a trace of danger came from behind.

Si Quan has always been concerned about Tianxue, which will give the enemy a chance. Seeing the enemy appear, he instantly drew his sword and intercepted and killed the purple-robed man who killed Tianxue.

As soon as one move repelled the opponent, Si Quan had not yet withdrawn his sword style, and several sword rays came towards him.

Si Quan understood that he was the real target of the other party. There are a total of seven purple-robed people, all of whom are in the realm of second-rate masters. These plans are just trying to solve themselves in one move.

It has to be said that the enemy knows too little about Si Quan.

Between the lightning and flint, I saw a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and the Heavenly Dao was shadowless, and he easily avoided the first stabbing sword. With a twist of his wrist, the sharp sword in his hand shook the two swords smoothly. Leaning back, three blades slashed across the body.

- A move that runs smoothly, and all the enemy's killing methods are resolved.

"You're from Ghost City, aren't you? Why don't you tell me who your employer is, and I'll kill him, and you won't have to die again. ”

"Collect money from people and eliminate disasters for others, the sect master, offended. ”

Several killers have a strong work ethic, and they don't listen to the temptation of the boss at all, and they are beckoning to surround and kill again.

Si Quan has only been out of the mountain for a short time, and few people in the rivers and lakes know his martial arts background. So he didn't use all his strength, otherwise the other party would suddenly dispatch a heavyweight killer and put himself in. pretended to be an ordinary first-class master realm, and struggled with the seven people.

On the other side, the ghost knew that it was not Tianxue's opponent, so he did not resist stubbornly, and disappeared when the opponent's sword slashed at his head.

The opponent disappeared, Tianxue didn't have time to think about it, and turned around to see: the seven killers and Si Quan were in a mess, and it was difficult to distinguish for a while, and they were evenly matched without giving in.

Without any hesitation, Tianxue immediately reinforced. The killer immediately divided two to resist, and Si Quan took the opportunity to gain the upper hand and chased one out of the battle circle.

The man saw Si Quan rushing towards him, and hurriedly retreated. How do you know that Si Quan chased after him, gritted his teeth and counterattacked, but he didn't block the opponent's attack, and when the other five people arrived, they had already been cut under the sword.

"The information is wrong, withdraw!"

With a shout, all the killers scattered and disappeared.

Si Quan didn't bother to chase after him, and at noon, the people from Xuanji Building had already arrived, and now they were hiding around.

"Xie Jun is gone"

Looking around Tianxue, Xie Jun was not found.

Si Quan's expression was serious, but he didn't feel too surprised: "I suspected that the ghost was pretended by him, and as soon as he disappeared, the ghost appeared, and there was really a problem." ”

"The problem is in the bag, which must be what he pretends to be a ghost. ”

"This tomb looks weird, you get out of the way, I'll open it. ”

Tianxue retreated a few meters, and Si Quan was lucky with the sword. When the blade of the sword was about to shatter, a sword slashed down. With a bang, most of the coffin was revealed.

"Extreme Qi Realm!"

"What's the gas?"

Hearing Tianxue's exclamation, Si Quan turned his head and asked.

"You don't know?"

"Know what?"

Si Quan glanced at the grave suspiciously, Tianxue understood that the other party was not lying, so he had no choice but to explain.

"On the rivers and lakes, the martial arts realm is simply divided into three ranks, grandmasters, and four levels. Among the top forces, they are divided into various realms such as the Body Refining Realm, the Qi Refining Realm, and the Merge Dao Realm. The refining realm is divided into the outer body stage and the inner body stage, corresponding to the third-rate realm, and the refining qi realm is divided into four phases: essence, divine qi, void qi and extreme qi, corresponding to the second-rate and first-class realms. ”

Si Quan instantly understood: "Isn't that the Merge Dao Realm the Grandmaster Realm?"

Of course, this was originally a Taoist division. According to what they said, there is still confusion on it, the Heavenly Pole and the Taixuan level, but there are not many people in the Heavenly Extreme Realm since ancient times, and I have never heard of the Taixuan Realm. ”

Si Quan nodded, feeling that the division of Taoism seemed to be more reasonable, and he seemed to know the direction of cultivation when he listened, but he was not in a hurry to ask Tianxue for advice. His eyes turned to the coffin, ready to continue digging the ancestral grave.

"There's nothing unusual in the tomb, you're not going to open the coffin, are you?"

"Don't worry, no one knows, and even if they do, I did it, and it has nothing to do with you. ”

Si Quan cautiously approached the coffin, stabbed his sword into the seam, and with a strong pick, the coffin lid flew to the side. The two of them stepped forward and saw what was in the coffin, full of disbelief.

"How is that possible?"

- The people lying in it are clearly like people who are sleeping. Although the hair is silvery, the complexion is ruddy and elastic. It's just that the weathered clothes around the body will never decompose into what they are now in a hundred years.

"What to do, it can't really be a ghost, right?"

"Maybe it's because of the geographical location, there are some places where people can't rot, let's go back. ”

The two of them were puzzled and scribbled and buried anew.

- What they didn't know was that just as the coffin was being closed, the corpse's eyes suddenly opened.

"Xie Jun is probably the one who pretends to be a ghost, won't we fall into the net when we go back now?"

"Haven't you found out your identity yet?"

Tianxue is also a master of the arts, and he just followed Si Quan through the window.

"Don't drink!"

Si Quan raised his teacup, and the sound of Tianxue came from the door.

"It's tea during the day, and you've drunk it too, isn't it okay?"

"I tied one of my hair to the door before I left, and now it's broken. ”

"You mean someone came in?"

Si Quan put down the teacup and flipped out his baggage to check it. Tianxue gnashed his teeth, and the man who cares about money at this time is actually money!

"No one has touched the luggage, it's not stealing. ”

Tianxue reacted that she was wrong, and it turned out that the other party was not hopeless.

"Since it's not for money, it's for life. ”

Tianxue spilled the tea on the ground, and sure enough, there was a cloud of white foam, and the two tacitly discussed for a while, and Tianxue occupied the bed again.

Day 2

Si Quan and the two sat in their original positions, quietly trying to have a non-toxic breakfast, and finally found that the atmosphere in the inn was not right.

"Little Second Brother"

"Hey, what's the objective command?"

"Why didn't I see your shopkeeper today?"

Xiao Er's face turned pale when he heard this, and when he saw that there was no one around, he whispered to Si Quan.

"Alas, what a misfortune! Last night our shopkeeper went out for some reason, and he was killed in his own yard by dirty things. ”

After speaking, Xiao Er had already been called by another table of guests, and the two looked at each other, what was going on?

"It can't be that he is worried about his identity being exposed, so he deliberately avoids us, right?"

"There's something strange about this, go to Xie Mansion at night to have a look. ”

"I'll go with you!"
