Volume I, Chapter 4
Half a day passed in the blink of an eye, and Lu Xingyun did not walk out of the Bafang Inn. I don't know why, just see him sitting in the room, staring at the sword on the table, and I don't know what he's thinking?
In the evening, snow began to fall in the sky, like goose feathers. After a while, the entire Autumn Water City was covered in a layer of silver. The streets are becoming less and less crowded.
Slowly, as it got dark, there was nothing but the sound of the wind blowing through the streets of the houses, and the occasional dog barking. Quietly, quietly. It was as if the whole city had fallen into a deep sleep. The inn has long since closed.
Lu Xingyun, did not sleep. I'm still thinking about something.
Suddenly, the air was unusually cold. The cold Lu Xingyun shivered violently. This feeling is only possible when danger appears, and this is a warning that only the masters of the rivers and lakes who have experienced danger can have, and this has become an instinct. However, Lu Xingyun was only about twenty-four years old.
At this time, a flying knife broke through the window. I saw Lu Xingyun, his head turned to the left, and the flying knife slammed into the wallboard. Lu Xingyun didn't look back at the flying knife stuck in the wall, because he knew that even if he did, it would be useless. Because that's just an ordinary knife. It can be purchased at the blacksmith's shop.
At the moment when Lu Xingyun turned his head, Lu Xingyun seemed to be a different person, his momentum changed suddenly, and he was domineering, yes, this is also the arrogance that only top swordsmen have.
Sharp eyes, like thunder and lightning in the middle of the night, flashed with cold light. I saw Lu Xingyun instinctively grab the sword in his left hand, stretch out his right hand forward, put his palm upright, and swing it to the left and right at will, and the window of the room opened. I didn't see how Lu Xingyun got up, but I saw him fly out of the window quickly and lightly. Because when the flying knife flew in, Lu Xingyun saw a black shadow flash outside the window.
It was night, but there was no moonlight. Because, in the snow. It is because of the snow that it has a white color like moonlight. That's why Lu Xingyun saw that faint black shadow.
At this time, Lu Xingyun had already appeared outside Bafang City. The cold wind is biting, the snowflakes are flying, and the sky and the earth are white. Although Lu Xingyun's martial arts are not weak, Lu Xingyun's eyebrows are also covered with frost at this time.
Ahead, the black shadow was also speeding fast. Lu Xingyun can be sure that he has never seen this person, because as long as he has seen the person, he will almost never forget it. It's not because it's unforgettable, it's instinct as a swordsman. You must have a sense of observation that is far beyond ordinary people.
It didn't take long for Lu Xingyun to discover a problem. Because he found that as soon as he was close to the dark shadow. The black shadow will improve its own skills and quickly distance itself from itself. It's as if he's deliberately luring himself in.
In this way, Lu Xingyun and the black shadow chased each other one after the other for about half an hour. Finally, the shadow stopped in front of an abandoned rubble.
The black shadow didn't turn around, just turned his back to Lu Xingyun, who was following closely. It seems that he is not afraid of Lu Xingyun's back.
Just when Lu Xingyun just wanted to open his mouth. The dark shadow said in a hoarse voice, "I know what you're here for. ”
