Late at night, autumn wind, night rain!

The dilapidated thatched hut, two travelers sheltering from the rain, looked at each other, and were silent for a long time!

After a long time, the young man in the house reacted and said, "You are also here to shelter from the rain! The inside is very narrow, come in, I will let you sit!"

"Thank you!" The man in the cloth led the horse in, tied the horse to the side, and took off his robe, only to see that he was handsome, with a murderous aura between his eyebrows, it was Xiao Tianyu, the eldest son of the Xuanming Sect!

That day, he said goodbye to Song Baichuan on the Thousand Peaks, and he went down the mountain. Riding a fast horse from the foot of Qilian Mountain all the way to the south, he arrived at the border of Qinghai in a short time. He then headed east, preparing to go to Henan to find Guo Bodhisattva's whereabouts. After another day of walking, just in time for the rain at night, I found this place and prepared to take shelter from the rain!

Xiao Tianyu looked at the young man in front of him, and saw a long knife hanging from his waist, so he asked, "Is the young man also a person in the rivers and lakes?"

The young man shook his head and smiled: "What rivers and lakes are not rivers and lakes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes!

Xiao Tianyu reported his name and said: "The rivers and lakes are so big, it is fate to meet Brother Xu here, there is just a pot of wine in the next place, can you drink a few glasses with the next one, and go to the wind and cold for Brother Xu!"

Xu Zhenhua is also a free and unrestrained person, coupled with the cold rain and cold nights, deep into the bone marrow, there is no excuse. Xiao Tianyu took out a wine gourd from the horse, and also carried two bamboo wine glasses, Xu Zhenhua saw that he was fully prepared, and couldn't help laughing: "Brother Xiao is also a living and delicate person, and he doesn't forget to bring wine glasses when he goes out!"

Xiao Tianyu took some rain and washed the wine glasses, poured a glass each, handed it to Xu Zhenhua, and said: "I am used to it at home, I always feel that the wine has to be tasted carefully, although it is bold to drink it in a big gulp, but I can't taste the aroma of the wine, it is really a tyrannical thing!"

Xu Zhenhua nodded, as if acquiescing to what he said. Holding the wine glass and sniffing at the tip of his nose, he felt that the aroma was strong and refreshing, and he hurriedly asked: "Brother Xiao, what kind of wine is this? This fragrance is so strong, it is even more fragrant than the Xinghua Village I drank before!"

Xiao Tianyu raised his glass and drank it all, and replied: "This wine is called 'Twenty Years Collection', which is made by collecting the morning dew on the leaves of Ganoderma lucidum grass in the mountains, and adding the essence of the snow lotus in the Tianshan Mountains.

Xu Zhenhua couldn't help but be surprised: "If that person is lucky in this life, he can only drink it four times!"

Xiao Tianyu asked, "Which four times?"

Xu Zhenhua said with a smile: "Once when I was born, once in the year of the weak crown, once in the year of not being confused, once in the year of the sixtieth year, if I can live to the old age, then there will be one more time!"

Xiao Tianyu laughed when he heard this: "Brother Xu is really funny, who would let the newborn child drink!"

Xu Zhenhua smiled and raised his glass to drink. This wine is not strong, it is very fragrant in the mouth, and the throat is also refreshing, and it is slightly cool at the beginning when it falls into the abdomen, and gradually it begins to heat up, and the whole body gradually warms up!

Xu Zhenhua couldn't help but praise the good wine!

Xiao Tianyu smiled and poured another glass for Xu Zhenhua, and the two of them had a glass each, and the wine in the gourd had bottomed out in a while. The two were also slightly drunk.

The relationship between men was established quickly, and after a few glasses of wine, the two had no estrangement and chatted without any guilt. Through chatting, Xiao Tianyu learned that Xu Zhenhua was from Hebei and came to Qinghai to hunt down and kill an enemy.

This matter started a month ago, when Xu Zhenhua was still the senior brother of Tiandaomen in Cangzhou, Hebei. The master of the Heavenly Sword Sect is Wen Yiming, who was once known as the "Sword King", and his subordinates have a total of seven disciples, Xu Zhenhua is the earliest to get started, and his talent is high, and he has vaguely surpassed the master.

On that day, a group of Wuqiao juggling troupes came to Cangzhou City, set up a platform on the Dengshi Street, and performed here for seven consecutive days! Wuqiao acrobatics were second to none in the whole of Hebei and even in the rivers and lakes, and naturally attracted many people to watch.

Several of Xu Zhenhua's junior brothers and sisters under the Heavenly Sword Sect also wanted to open their eyes, but they were afraid that the master would blame them, so they ran to Xu Zhenhua one by one to beg Xu Zhenhua to take them. Xu Zhenhua couldn't resist them, so he had to risk being punished by his master and took a few junior brothers and sisters with him!

Although it was already night, the streets of the light market were more bustling than during the day. The shouting and selling sound come and go, there are all kinds of famous local products, and the pedestrians are also endless, which is not inferior to the lantern festival of the Lantern Festival!

The stage of the juggling hall was already full of people, and what was being performed on the stage at this time was a very interesting "stealing peach". Xu Zhenhua has also seen this kind of juggling before, usually the boss of the juggling team to perform, he throws a rope into the air, the rope is like tethered to the clouds, then a child will climb up along the rope, climb farther and farther, until he is gone. Then a large peach fell from the sky, and when the audience applauded, the child's limbs and head fell from the sky! The boss wept bitterly and put the child's body into a wooden box.

At this moment, the people below felt that he had experienced the pain of losing his son, and took pity on him, so they took out the reward. When the reward was enough, the boss patted the wooden box and said, "Son! Come out and receive the reward!" and then open the wooden box, and the child came out alive again!

Although Xu Zhenhua knew that he was using a trick, he couldn't figure out the principle. It turns out that there are three hundred and sixty lines, and all walks of life have their own little secrets that no one knows!

The boss, a sturdy man of about forty years old, took out a rope from the box, grabbed his head, threw it into the air, and shouted: "Go!" The rope went straight up, and it didn't enter the night sky, and slowly the end of the rope was out of sight!

As soon as he showed his hand, it attracted bursts of applause from the audience, and several of Xu Zhenhua's junior brothers and sisters also shouted excitedly! The boss let go of the tail of the rope, and the rope seemed to hang in the night sky, and it did not fall. The boss said something in his mouth: "Today, I will send my son to the heavenly palace and go to the queen mother's orchard, and the peach will be three thousand years old, and it will be extended for everyone!"

A seven or eight-year-old child came running on the stage, white and fat, wearing a red belly pocket, grabbing a rope and climbing up, and gradually disappeared from the eyes of everyone! After a while, Xu Zhenhua thought that the peach was about to fall, so he said to several junior brothers and sisters: "Look, the peach is about to fall!"

The younger brothers and sisters looked at the stage curiously, and after a long time, they still didn't see the peach. Xu Zhenhua was a little stunned, but what was even more stunned was the boss on the stage. After waiting for such a long time, there is still no peach, and the people below are also talking about it! The boss was a little panicked and shouted to the sky: "Son! Haven't you arrived at the peach orchard of the queen mother?"

Before he could finish speaking, a child's cry could be heard in the night sky. Everyone was amazed, a man in white fell from the sky, stepped on the stage, holding a knife in his left hand, and the chubby child in his right arm was between them!

The boy kicked and kicked in his arms, crying and crying, "Daddy save me!"

The boss looked at the man and shouted, "Who are you, why are you arresting my child?"

A smile appeared at the corner of the man's mouth: "Yi Xiaofeng, you have made it easy for me to find it in the past few years! These powerful spells given to you by the Bishop of the Yin and Yang Sect did not go out to save people, but you hid in this juggling team to do these deceitful things?"

The boss had an ugly look on his face and asked, "Who are you?"

The boss asked like this, and naturally acquiesced that he was the "Yi Xiaofeng" that the man said. The man sneered: "It doesn't matter who I am, but I not only know your identity, but I also know that for more than ten years, before the death of the Yin Yang Sect Leader Immortal, he used the secret technique of the 'Star Blood Sacrifice' to get a glimpse of the heavens, and also wrote a poem of the Seven Laws, which recorded the information of the future Lord of the World!"

Yi Xiaofeng was even more frightened when he heard this, and blurted out: "You are Han Shantong's person!"

The man did not reply to him: "It doesn't matter who I am, but I know that the poem is in your hands at this moment!

The people in the audience were stunned by this sudden drama! Wasn't it the heavens stealing the peach? Could it be that the play was changed temporarily? Xu Zhenhua's face was also very solemn, and he naturally knew that this was not a play, because the Yin Yang Sect, Han Shantong, and others were all real!

Yi Xiaofeng panicked: "He's just an innocent child, he has nothing to do with this matter, don't kill him!"

The man sneered and moved the knife away: "It's okay if I don't kill him, but you have to promise me to hand over the letter, otherwise I will really kill this little cub!"

Yi Xiaofeng said: "Don't be impulsive, we have something to say, you put the child down first!" He said as he moved gently towards the man, and the man noticed his movements and raised his knife to point at Yi Xiaofeng: "What do you want to do!

Before the words fell, Yi Xiaofeng roared angrily and rushed towards the man, the goal was to snatch the child in his arms! The man snorted coldly: "You still want to snatch people from me!"

Yi Xiaofeng snorted in pain, fell to the ground, rolled around a few times on the stage, and fell off the stage!

The man grabbed the child and ran to the edge of the stage, looked at Yi Xiaofeng who fell to the ground in embarrassment, and sneered: "You can also make tricks on the stage to fool these people, and you are not my opponent if you really fight ten!" He looked at the crying child in his arms, and said viciously: "Little cub, blame you for your bad life, when you meet such a hard-mouthed father, don't tell your uncle when you go to Lord Yama!"

The crowd had been in chaos since Yi Xiaofeng was kicked to the ground! The people below had already seen that they were not acting on stage, and they were hugging their heads and running around, and the shouts and cries for help rang out on the orderly streets of the lamp market!

In the chaotic crowd, a black shadow rose from the ground, and a flash of knife light flashed in front of the man's eyes, blocking his evil knife! Xu Zhenhua suddenly made a move, snatched the child from the man's arms, and threw it to the younger brothers and sisters below to take care of!

The man was startled and shouted: "What kind of arrogant boy are you, you dare to stop me, believe it or not, I want your life!"

Xu Zhenhua said: "Although the court is mediocre, but you, as a person of Han Shantong, killed a child who was powerless, where is your righteousness?"

The man was about to answer, but he saw Yi Xiaofeng, who had rolled off the stage, get up and fled in the northwest direction! The man had no intention of fighting, pushed Xu Zhenhua away, and chased after Yi Xiaofeng in the direction of Yi Xiaofeng's escape!

Xu Zhenhua asked several junior brothers and sisters to take care of the children here, and he also followed the man to chase after him!

The streets of the lamp market are full of people coming and going. At the beginning, Xu Zhenhua could still be a stone's throw away from the man, but Yi Xiaofeng ran to a crowded place, and the man also chased towards a dense place, and within a while, Yi Xiaofeng and the man disappeared!

Xu Zhenhua simply jumped directly onto the roof, and under the vast night, he stepped on the blue bricks and red tiles as if he were walking on the ground! He chased in the direction of the two of them, and in about a stick of incense, he had already come to the city gate!

The place was sparsely populated and pitch black, and a few soldiers patrolled the city walls. Xu Zhenhua thought that if Yi Xiaofeng and the man arrived here, they would be discovered by the soldiers, and the two of them would not be so stupid that they would turn around and return, but suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, thinking that the two of them had done a light job, would they take advantage of the soldiers' inattention and cross over to the city wall?

Xu Zhenhua took advantage of the soldiers' inattention, and performed light skills, like a black swallow, instantly crossed the city wall and came outside! He walked under the city wall, and suddenly felt that he stepped on something slimy under his feet, leaned over and borrowed the moonlight, and found that it was a pool of blood!

He opened his eyes to look ahead, but saw that there were blood stains everywhere on the ground in front of him! Xu Zhenhua walked forward step by step along the blood stains, and just happened to find Yi Xiaofeng who was dying in a shadow of the city wall!

Xu Zhenhua hurriedly stepped forward to check his injuries, only to see that there was a deep wound on his chest, and the skin and flesh were rolling, which was very terrifying. Xu Zhenhua said: "Boss Yi is a little safe, I'll take you to see the doctor!"

Yi Xiaofeng grabbed Xu Zhenhua's hand, shook his head and said, "Shaoxia, my injuries are very serious, I'm afraid my life will be short, I have a favor and want to ask Shaoxia to help me!

Xu Zhenhua saw that he was too seriously injured, and he was already a dying person. He was already chivalrous, so he nodded in agreement. Yi Xiaofeng said: "In fact, I was the elder brother of the four disciples of the Yin and Yang Sect Master under the once famous Yin Yang Sect, more than ten years ago, the sect leader used the secret technique of the Yin and Yang family 'Star Blood Sacrifice' to get a glimpse of the heavens, and knew the future lord of the world, after writing a seven-law prophecy poem, he suffered the curse of heaven and died, and then the four of us returned to the mountains, and the Yin Yang Sect disappeared into the rivers and lakes, and the last poem was only known to our four disciples!"

"The person just now was the hussar general under Han Shantong's seat, called Mu Yan. Han Shantong is from the White Lotus Sect and once knew the leader of our sect. Originally, the sect leader had a very thorough glimpse of the heavenly opportunity, but he didn't know why Han Shantong knew about it. He is bent on seizing the world, so he wants to see if the lord of the world written in this masterpiece poem is him!"

"So he did the uprising, while sending people to track down the whereabouts of my four people, last month I got the news, my little brother who was hidden in Hunan was killed, and later learned that it was Mu Yan who killed my junior brother, and half a month ago I was hidden in Sichuan The third junior brother was also killed by him, presumably because the two junior brothers did not tell the content of the poem was killed!"

"Today he found my traces again, presumably he already knows the traces of my second junior sister, the four disciples of the Yin-Yang Sect have gone to the third, and now there is only one junior sister left in the master's sect, I want to ask the young man to follow Mu Yan, kill him, and protect the only bloodline of my Yin-Yang Sect!"

Xu Zhenhua is chivalrous, hearing that this Mu Yan has committed three murders, he hates it so much that he nods heavily: "I promise you, kill Mu Yan and save your junior sister!"

Yi Xiaofeng let Xu Zhenhua lie in his ear, and after telling him the location of his junior sister's retreat, he lost his breath! Xu Zhenhua found a quiet place in the forest, buried his body, returned to the Heavenly Sword Gate, and told the master that he had something to go out, at least for a month, or at most for half a year.

"Sword King" Wen Yiming has always favored him, a big disciple. Now that he has achieved great martial arts, it is also a good thing to go out and have a good time, so he did not stop him, but gave his beloved Tianming Treasure Sword to Xu Zhenhua!

This Tianming knife is made of ancient dark iron, Wen Yiming used this knife when he was young, and he fought all over the world on the rivers and lakes, and won the title of "Sword King". Wen Yiming saw this knife as more important than his life, carrying the honor and disgrace of life and death of his "sword king"! Giving such a precious knife to Xu Zhenhua can show Wen Yiming's great love for Xu Zhenhua!

So, Xu Zhenhua took his master's Tianming knife and embarked on a journey to hunt down and kill Mu Yan. He went all the way to the east, and it took him nearly a month to enter the land of Qinghai!

After listening to him, Xiao Tianyu took a sip of wine and admired Xu Zhenhua's chivalrous heart very much. For an irrelevant person and irrelevant matter, it is really heroic to be able to come thousands of miles to this barren land of Qinghai!

"I have also heard the name of the Yin-Yang Sect, and it is rumored that they are from the mysterious Yin-Yang family of the hundred sons of the pre-Qin period, they can observe the stars, measure fate, know Yin and Yang, and peep into the sky. The Yin-Yang Sect Master only accepts four disciples in his life. But I heard that this sect disappeared from the rivers and lakes more than ten years ago, and it turned out to be this reason!"

Xu Zhenhua nodded and said, "Since the Yin Yang Sect Master got a glimpse of the Heavenly Opportunity and encountered the death of the Heavenly Curse Immortal, the four disciples have each hidden the Yin Yang Sect Master's master's master's unique prophetic poem and returned to the rivers and lakes, and I don't know how Han Shantong learned this secret and sent Mu Yan!"

Xiao Tianyu asked, "Did the Yin Yang Sect Master really leave a prophetic poem in the world? What is the content of the poem?

Xu Zhenhua shook his head: "This is the Heavenly Opportunity of the Yin-Yang Sect, they obey the orders of the Yin-Yang Sect Master, and they must not tell anyone the content of the poem, which is why the three disciples were killed one after another!"

Xiao Tianyu felt ridiculous: "This Yin Yang Sect Master is also interesting, knowing that it is a heavenly opportunity that cannot be revealed, but he still has to write it down, knowing that someone will track it down, but he still doesn't let the disciples say it, the death of his three disciples is half the responsibility of the Yin Yang Sect Master!"

Xu Zhenhua nodded, as if acquiescing to what Xiao Tianyu said: "I agree with what you said, but I also understand the state of mind of the Yin Yang Sect Master, and I have a glimpse of the heavenly opportunity, if I don't say it, it will be very uncomfortable to hold it in my heart!

Xiao Tianyu nodded and said with a smile: "I also agree with what you said! Then according to what you say, now the only person who knows that master's prophetic poem is the second senior sister among the four disciples! If you think about it, she is the only person in the whole world who knows the future lord of the world, what an interesting thing it must be!"

"That's true!" Xu Zhenhua said with a smile: "She is the only one who knows what the future will do, and it is really interesting for the entire rivers and lakes!"

"Come!" Xiao Tianyu raised his glass: "There is this one left, drink it with me!"

As soon as the two finished drinking, Xiao Tianyu suddenly became alert, and Xu Zhenhua saw that his face had changed, so he asked, "What's wrong?"

"Someone!" Xiao Tianyu's face was solemn, and he used the "Hidden Six Senses" mental method, only to hear the faint sound of footsteps in the pouring rain, in the sound of the rain, he couldn't hear how many people there were, but he knew that the person who came was not good!

Then, he heard the sound of rustling outside from the outside wall, Xiao Tianyu listened to the voice debater, and knew that it was the sound of hooking the thatched hut!

At this moment, in the middle of the night in a stormy night, there was no one in the wilderness! Two men and two horses were exposed to the pouring rain! In an instant, their clothes were soaked by the heavy rain! Most of them woke up drunk!

Xiao Tianyu saw through the dense rain curtain that they were surrounded by people! There were about a dozen of them, dressed in robes, with a hook in their left hand and a long knife in their right hand, standing in the pouring rain, motionless, like a dozen statues!

Xu Zhenhua took out the Tianming knife, put it on his shoulder, his hair stuck to his face, and he didn't have time to care about it, looked at the dozen or so people in clothes around him, and asked, "Who are these people?"

Xiao Tianyu sneered: "If the guess is right, these people should be here to hunt me down!"

"Hunting you down?" Xu Zhenhua was a little puzzled. Xiao Tianyu laughed: "Brother Xu, we are really quite fateful, you came to Qinghai to hunt down and kill others, but I came to Qinghai to be hunted down and killed, one positive and one negative, very interesting!"

Xu Zhenhua laughed: "I won't ask you what your identity is, why do these people chase and kill you! I am quite close to you, and I am a confidant, your business is my business, and chasing you is chasing and killing me!"

"Okay!" Xiao Tianyu laughed: "If Brother Xu says so, after solving these people, I will also go with you to kill Mu Yan, because your business is also my business, and the person you chase and kill is also the person I hunt down!"

The two looked at each other and laughed, which was particularly harsh in the pouring rain!

The figures of the dozen or so clothed people around them suddenly moved in unison, stepping on the rain, and rushed towards the two people in the circle! Five of the dozen or so people besieged Xu Zhenhua, and the rest rushed towards Xiao Tianyu!

The four clothed people threw hooks, hooked Xu Zhenhua's hands and feet, and pulled hard, but he couldn't move, and the other person waved a long knife and slashed towards his heavenly spirit!

Xu Zhenhua yelled: "Do you think I'm so easy to bully!" His limbs suddenly exerted force, and his hands and feet pulled the four people behind the hook towards him. At the same time, he waved the Tianming knife in his hand, chopped away the man's attack, the blade flipped inward, slid against his throat, and a bloody arrow burst up, spreading into the vast rain, and suddenly it was blood-red!

And the four people behind the hook were also pulled in front of him. Xu Zhenhua moved his hands and feet together, kicked the chest of a person with his left foot, pulled the person to the ground with his right foot, stepped on his back with one foot, pinched the throat of a person with his left hand, and with a strong finger, his right hand waved the Tianming knife again, and blood splashed in the four fields!

In just an instant, four of the five people in the clothes who besieged Xu Zhenhua had already been killed in his hands! Only he stepped on the man with his right foot and was still struggling, and Xu Zhenhua stabbed him with a backhand, piercing his chest, and the blood stained a piece of rain under his feet!

And there are two or three more people on Xiao Tianyu's side than Xu Zhenhua! They also threw out the hooks, but Xiao Tianyu's body shape and footwork were smart, although in the pouring rain, the speed was still not reduced by half a point, and the hooks of several people fell into the rain, splashing several splashes!

Six or seven people in the cloth simply gave up the hook and instead attacked the defenseless Xiao Tianyu with their long knives! Xiao Tianyu dodged and moved in the light of Huo Huo's knife, and his body was like a ghost. A few clothed people are as dense as rain, but they can never hurt Xiao Tianyu in the slightest!

Different from Xiao Tianyu, Xu Zhenhua pays attention to killing with one blow, after he killed five people in cloth, he turned to look at Xiao Tianyu, but saw that he came and went freely in the sword light, quite a "ten thousand flowers have passed, and a leaf does not stick to his body"!

"Brother Xiao is really a good skill, I'm afraid this kind of martial arts is still above me!"

Xiao Tianyu seemed to be tired of playing, and it was also possible that he had been drenched in the heavy rain for too long and felt uncomfortable, so he stepped his left foot back, stepped on the ground stubbornly, stopped his body, and at the same time moved forward with his right foot, swiped in the rain in front of him, splashing several splashes!

At the same time as the splash of water, two people in the clothes fell to the ground in response! It turned out that they were swept by Xiao Tianyu's sweeping legs! Xiao Tianyu shot two palms in front of him, and the palm wind was strong, and he actually drove the dense rain silk in front of him and hit the other two together!

The two clothed men screamed miserably, spurted out a mouthful of bloody arrows from their mouths, and fell on their backs in the rain, their sternums had been torn by him, hurting their hearts and lungs, and they were no longer breathing!

knocked down the four people in an instant, and the remaining two were terrified, took a step back, glanced at each other, roared angrily, and made a plan to see death as home, and slashed at Xiao Tianyu with a knife!

The moment the blade was about to hit Xiao Tianyu, Xiao Tianyu suddenly disappeared in front of the two of them! The two of them slashed into the air, the blade sank into the rain, and the water splashed in a charming eye!

"Haven't you two seen this trick?" Xiao Tianyu's voice sounded behind the two of them. In fact, Xiao Tianyu already knew their identities, and they must be the killers of Hu Lufeng's old thief! He said that sentence just to tell these two people that he knew their identities!

The two clothed people felt a chill on their backs! They couldn't believe that in the pouring rain, Xiao Tianyu's speed was still so fast! They had made thousands of calculations, but they didn't count this!

Two long knives passed through their chests, and the two of them watched as the blades were stained with blood, washed by the rain, and then stained with blood, and washed by the rain!

"This can't be!" the man on the left forced a breath and breathed a sentence out of his throat. Xiao Tianyu sneered: "There are many things in this world that you still don't understand! You are very powerful, but you are with the wrong person! You must keep your eyes open when you are reincarnated! Go with peace of mind!"

Reaching out and gently touching the backs of the two of them, the two of them fell straight into the rain, splashing several splashes, blood flowing, staining the rain under them!

Xiao Tianyu's face, washed by the rain, looked even more cold at the moment! The murderous aura between his eyebrows became more and more intense!

......
