Chapter 67: Shadows

Dozens of miles away in the town, a black shadow flashed on the street, and under the moonlight, this black shadow burrowed into a narrow alley and disappeared.

Qiao Yuan appeared in the old woman's backyard in a black robe, and he didn't bother the old woman, but walked straight to the hut where he had rested last time.

As soon as he entered the hut, he was visibly stunned for a moment in the reflection of a glimmer of moonlight, and then a warm smile appeared on his mouth.

The hut was still the same as before, but it had been clearly cleaned, and there was a wooden bed in the innermost place, and a new futon had been placed on top of it. The plank was gone, and the silver he had left behind was gone.

He knew that this was specially prepared by the old woman, so that he could have a comfortable place to live when he came back, and a trace of warmth grew in Qiao Yuan's heart, making him feel as if he had returned to Qingfeng Village.

Qiao Yuan walked to the side of the bed and lay on it, and a fragrance of cotton wood entered his nose, making his fatigue for many days disappear a lot at once.

The quilt made of new cotton was very soft, which made Qiao Yuan's hard heart slowly soften.

Maybe he was too tired, maybe he had a touch of home warmth, or maybe the bedding was too comfortable, Qiao Yuan just lay down for a while, and then fell asleep, he slept soundly, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a smile, which made people imagine that he should have had a sweet dream.

Bai Yue lay on the side, watching Qiao Yuan fall asleep, it got up and walked to the head of the bed, a pair of smart wolf eyes looked at half of the bright moon through the small window, his ears twitched from time to time, carefully catching the abnormal sound of the night.

The night was remarkably quiet, not even a single insect chirping. The bright moon was long, and Bai Yue couldn't see half of the bright moon outside the window, but he was still lying there, vigilant about the situation around him.

"Did you find that kid?"

In a small forest outside the town, two dark shadows stood under a large tree, and a dark shadow on the left spoke coldly.

"Hmph, I found it, it's in ......"

The black shadow on the right snorted coldly, took a step closer, lowered his voice and said slowly.

When it was close to dawn, three black shadows rushed into the town along the path, and the undercurrent was surging, and a killing machine was quietly approaching Qiao Yuan.

Qiao Yuan was still asleep at the moment, and Bai Yue was still vigilant about the situation around him, but he didn't notice that there was a person on a tall building a mile away, staring at him coldly.

After the three black shadows entered the town, they went straight to the tall building, and the people on the tall building saw the three black shadows, showed a cruel smile on their faces, and waved their hands at them.

When the three black shadows saw the movement of waving their hands, they immediately divided into three directions, disappeared into the darkness, and dived towards the hut where Qiao Yuan was.

Hundred zhang, fifty zhang, twenty zhang, ten zhang, the three black shadows sneaked within Qiao Yuan's ten zhang in a short time, they stopped, and at the same time took out the spiritual weapon from the storage bag, one was holding a dagger, one was holding a big knife, and one was holding a bow and arrow.

The man with the dagger nodded to the other two, flew softly, and landed on the thatched roof of the hut without making a sound.

The person with the big knife quietly sneaked into the backyard and hid in a hidden location, if Qiao Yuan went out unprepared, then he would inevitably be plotted.

The last person flew up lightly and landed on the pillar of the street archway, condescendingly, bending his bow and pulling arrows, aiming directly at the hut where Qiao Yuan was.

Judging from the tacit understanding of the cooperation of the three people, these people are definitely professional night killers, but who made a big enmity with Qiao Yuan, and actually laid a triple killing machine to deal with him, no one knows.

The person on the top of the building a mile away, seeing that the three of them were already in place, showed an extremely cruel smile on his face, and directly transmitted a divine thought.

The man on the roof had already opened a gap in the roof, and at the moment of receiving the divine thought, his figure flashed and fell directly into the house.

Just as his dagger was about to approach Qiao Yuan, his pupils shrank suddenly, a trace of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, his eyes were full of disbelief, and then slowly became dull, and there was only an extremely thin wound on his chest.

Qiao Yuan's eyes opened suddenly, and his figure rushed out of the roof in a flash, and the four wind cyclones behind him spun sharply, rushing towards the person hiding in the backyard.

The man with the big knife didn't react at all, he saw that his companion had just entered the hut, and in the next breath, Qiao Yuan rushed out of the hut, the strong contrast made his mind have a moment of trance, but it was this trance, he was already doomed.

After Qiao Yuan rushed over, with a flick of his left hand, a wind blade went directly towards his chest, the distance was too close, and the speed of the wind blade was extremely fast, not to mention that this killer was still in a trance, there was no accident, blood splashed, his eyes were full of disbelief, and he slowly fell to the ground.

The man with a bow and arrow in the distance also fell from a great height into the street at this time, his eyes bulging, and there were five hideous blood marks on his neck, and a large amount of steaming blood was gushing out at this moment.

The white light flashed, and the white moon fell on the corpse of this killer.

In fact, at the moment when Qiao Yuan rushed out of the hut, the killer with the bow and arrow let go of the bow, and an extremely sharp dark arrow flew towards Qiao Yuan, but Bai Yue had already ambushed nearby, and the speed of the Swift Moon Wolf was extremely famous, and it was only faster than the dark arrow, and it directly intercepted the arrow.

The killer with the bow and arrow didn't see Bai Yue's figure clearly at all, but saw that his arrow was interrupted by a white light, and when he was just about to evacuate, the white light rushed towards him, to say that his assassination ability was good, but the speed was far worse than Bai Yue, almost instantaneous.

After Qiao Yuan killed these people, he lifted their masks and found that he had never seen any of them, and he had more doubts in his heart, he turned his head and looked directly at the tall building a mile away, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

The high-rise building was already empty, there was no one for a long time, and the person who was standing here just now commanded, after seeing the first person miss, left here and disappeared without a trace.

Qiao Yuan cleaned up the yard, left the town directly, and went to wait at the agreed place with Huang Xiuming.

The sky gradually turned white, Qiao Yuan sat cross-legged on a boulder, slowly opened his eyes, and looked at a woman walking in the distance, with a smile on his face.

"Xiang Fairy came really early today. ”

"Huh...... No matter how early it is, there is no Qiao Daoyou early. ”

Xiang Ling bowed to Qiao Yuan, and said with a chuckle.

It was still early, so the two chatted for a while, but this Xiang Ling also talked about Qiao Yuan's help to Zhao Xue, saying that he was now a small celebrity, and it was circulated in the mouths of many loose cultivators.

"Qiao Daoyou is really warm-hearted, the road is uneven, and you dare to do anything to help him. ”

Xiang Lingmei's eyes showed admiration, and he said softly.

Qiao Yuan shook his head and smiled without saying a word. It's not that he is warm-hearted and likes to meddle in things, but he knows that Zhao Xue is for his grandfather, and his filial piety touches Qiao Yuan, and he can't ignore it.

However, he didn't expect this matter to attract a lot of attention, his eyes showed a look of thought, and he recalled the three killers he had just met in his mind, and combined them with Wang Lezi and Zhuang Heizi to think for a while.

He sighed lightly and shook his head, still without a clue, the three killers looked like they had been doing assassination for a long time, and they were extremely skilled, and he guessed that it was impossible to have any connection with people like ruffians.

Half an hour later, Zhang Qian hurried over, his brows were furrowed, his eyes showed sorrow, and he hesitated for a while before opening his mouth to Qiao Yuan and Xiang Ling.

"Qiao Daoyou, Xiang Daoyou, Huang Daoyou may have been killed?"

As soon as Qiao Yuan and Xiang Ling heard this, they were stunned on the spot.

"Late last night, I saw Huang Daoyou being chased by a group of black-clothed monks on the second floor of the Yuelai Inn, they passed all the way through the town, Huang Daoyou coughed up blood while fleeing, it seemed that he was seriously injured, I watched him flee into the mountains, it seemed that he was more than lucky. ”

Zhang Qian looked at the stunned appearance of the two without surprise, and said with a heavy frown.

"Blackfriars? What kind of blackfriars? Are they dressed in black?"

Qiao Yuan took a deep breath, pondered Zhang Qian's words carefully, asked with doubts in his eyes, and took out a bloodstained black coat from the storage bag after speaking.

"Yes, it's this black dress, how can you have it?"

Zhang Qian looked at the bloodstained black clothes in Qiao Yuan's hand, his expression changed, and he shouted loudly, and he took two steps back as he spoke, revealing vigilance.

When Xiang Ling saw Zhang Gan's actions, he also showed vigilance and took a few steps back.

"Don't get me wrong, two hours ago, I was also attacked by the Blackfriars, but I had already discovered them, and I was prepared, so I was caught off guard by killing them. ”

Qiao Yuan smiled on his face and said lightly.

"I see, Qiao Daoyou, do you know who they are?"

Xiang Ling frowned, showed a thoughtful look, and said slowly.

"I don't know, I've never seen these people, I'll bury their bodies not far away, you can go with me and see. ”

Qiao Yuan shook his head with a wry smile, and then pointed to the hillside not far away.

Zhang Qian and Xiang Ling glanced at each other and nodded towards Qiao Yuan.

The three of them came to a hidden place, where the ground had obvious signs of loosening, and Qiao Yuan took out a shovel and dug out the three corpses in a short time.

When Zhang Qian and Xiang Ling saw the faces of these three people, their expressions immediately changed greatly, and both of them showed solemn expressions, and even had a hint of fear and worry.

"You know these three?"

Qiao Yuan saw their expressions change, and naturally knew that they must know these three people, so he asked them.

"Know, this is the Night Hand of a killer organization near the Moon River Sect, this killer organization is called Shadow, and its strength is unfathomable, and it is said that even the Moon River Sect is unwilling to offend easily. ”

"These three people are nothing more than this organization, the three lowest night hands, you see if they have a weapon symbol in the center of their eyebrows. ”

Xiang Lingmei's eyes flashed a gloomy color, his face was extremely solemn, and he said in a deep voice.
