Chapter 19: Assassination

It was already evening when Dong Junqin left Qianxi Village, where Cheng Yan's family was located. The village was small and not very populous, and he came and went without being noticed.

After leaving the village for some distance, Dong Junqin found a forest and walked into the depths of the forest to prepare for Edgeworth to go to Camel Mountain, but heard a faint cry for help.

Following the sound heard by Qianli's ear, Dong Junqin saw an old man lying in the grass, seemingly injured in a fall.

The old man finally waited for someone to come, and shouted in a hoarse throat: "Young man, young man, help! ”

Dong Junqin squatted down and pressed him lightly: "Don't be in a hurry to get up, I have to take a look first." ”

When the old man saw Dong Jun's Sven, he obediently continued to fall down. After a closer inspection, except for the twisting of the foot, everything else is fine. He comforted the old man a few words, picked up his calves, took off his shoes, and put his palms on his ankles to exert a slight force.

The old man felt the coldness and asked curiously: "Young man, what is in your hand?

Dong Junqin used some spells, but out of a low profile, he said nonsense: "It's best to apply a cold compress to a sprain first, and it just so happens that I have a water bag on my body that can be used improvised." ”

After the dressing was almost done, Dong Junqin helped him stand up. The old man tried it, but he still felt pain. Older people, even a mild sprain should not be taken lightly. Dong Junqin decided to carry him home first.

"It's the village in front of you, young man, you're such a nice man. "Old Bennunuzui, the direction is the Qianxi Village where Cheng Xuan lives.

Dong Junqin said: "You also live in Qianxi Village?"

The old man was pleasantly surprised: "Do you know people from our village?"

Dong Junqin said: "Yes, I just met a few days ago, called Cheng Yan." ”

"Cheng Lai!" mentioned Cheng Lai, the old man opened the conversation, "He's back?" A few days ago, he suddenly ran out like a madman, and I don't know what he was doing. He's got a bad brain, nothing happened, right?"

Dong Junqin said: "No, he is very good." It's just that I'm a little tired from walking a lot, so it's good to rest for a few days. ”

The old man was relieved now: "How did you know him and send him back?"

Dong Junqin said: "It was his family who asked me to find him back." ”

When the old man heard this, he turned his head in surprise: "Which family member is he?"

"Forehead......" Dong Junqin thought about it, and Ah Lu didn't mention which family member it was.

The old man saw Dong Junqin hesitating, and hurriedly got off his back, not wanting him to carry it. Fortunately, at this time, they had already walked to the entrance of the village, and Dong Junqin carefully let him down.

The old man asked again tentatively, "Young man, don't scare me. You're human, aren't you? Not a ghost?"

Dong Junqin cried and laughed: "I am a human being, not a ghost." His family ......"

"Oh, young man, then what the hell are you!" The old man looked serious, and Dong Junqin was embarrassed, "His family has long been dead, all dead, where did the family entrust you." ”

"Dead?" Dong Junqin was surprised.

The old man said, "That's right." There were originally four people in their family, and more than ten years ago, his father and mother took him and his younger brother to dig mushrooms in the mountains, but they fell into the snake's nest. His father and mother were bitten to death on the spot. He himself burned out his brain because of poisoning too late and became an idiot. His brother was lucky enough to escape. It's a pity that his younger brother said that he wanted to cultivate and learn the law since he came out of the snake's den, and about three years ago he said that he knew an immortal and wanted to get rid of demons with others, and he never came back after leaving. Last month, a flying immortal came and told Cheng Li that his brother was killed by a monster, and Cheng Yan was stunned, and ran out of the village like crazy and said that he wanted to find his brother and avenge his brother. ”

In this way, Cheng Yan is really the only one left in the Cheng family. Who is Alu entrusted with? This girl is lying again!

Probably because of being deceived, Dong Junqin was a little angry and reflexively turned back to Cheng Li's house.

Cheng Yan's house is close to the woods, some distance from the surrounding neighbors. Before it was dark, he was already quiet and anxious.

However, at this moment, Dong Junqin heard a few painful whimpering sounds coming from the courtyard of the Cheng family, which should be quiet.

Dong Junqin was worried that Cheng Yan's body would suddenly deteriorate, but who knew that when he entered the house, he found that the back door was open, and in front of a half-dug mound, Ah Lu was being pinned against a tree by the neck by a black shadow.

"Who! Murder in the middle of the night?!" Dong Junqin let out a low shout, and the sword had already stabbed the man's wrist.

The black shadow obviously didn't expect that Dong Junqin would kill back after walking for so long. His wrist was pierced straight by the short sword, the black shadow withdrew, and Ah Lu fell to the ground.

The short sword returned to his hand, and Dong Junqin found that there was no trace on it. Could it be that this person in front of him is not a person?

The black shadow did not attack Dong Junqin, but he stood in front of Ah Lu, and a pair of invisible eyes projected from the darkness, as if to warn him: If you know each other, don't be nosy.

Everyone in Chongcaotang knows that their young master has a problem, that is, he likes to find trouble, especially other people's idle things. The more the shadow is like this, the more he has to take care of it. has studied and practiced medicine for more than ten years, and no one has ever been able to kill people under his nose.

The two confronted each other, and in the end, it was Dong Junqin who provoked the war. The invisible thing is difficult to fight with real swords and guns, three requiem talismans protect Ah Lu first, and one dansha talisman burns into white eyes around the black shadow as a temptation.

The black shadow was disturbed by the white smoke, and with a wave of his hand, Dong Junqin saw a flash of white light that seemed to be some kind of iron tool. Dong Junqin immediately made a move, and the short sword stretched out to reach the white light.

The crisp sound of the confrontation made Dong Junqin frown, the invisible thing is using a tangible weapon? Could it be that this black shadow is not an evil qi but a shadow transformation technique?

Shadowing is an extremely dangerous technique. This kind of technique has very high requirements for the original body of the practitioner, and if it is not practiced, it is a real broken body, but if it is practiced, it can shrink the original body to a size that is difficult to see with the naked eye, and fill the human form with black shadows, and the gathering and scattering are extremely flexible, so that the enemy has no way to start. In the early years, this kind of technique was practiced by orphans forcibly picked up by assassination organizations in various places, and in the Central Plains, this is a forbidden technique in the forbidden arts, how can it appear in this little-known small village now?

Dong Junqin couldn't think of any reason for Ah Lu to be targeted by such a powerful killer for a while, but he knew that his current Taoism was a bit difficult to defeat this person.

Dong Junqin can't shrink his body by himself, but his sword can. So he turned his hand and stamped it on the sword, and the short sword turned into a silver needle again, and the silver needle grew a fly's wing. The wings buzzed with the swift movement of the silver needle.

The sound surrounded the dark shadow, and it really made him lose his proportion. Taking advantage of the distraction, Dong Junqin quickly fished out the unconscious Ah Lu. A finger probes, it's terrible, it's going to be out of the body.

Just as Dong Junqin was about to escape, the black shadow burned those annoying wings with a single move. Dong Junqin took the opportunity to withdraw the short sword, not wanting his fire to burn the entire sword. Unsteady for a moment, the dagger fell and plunged into the ground.

Dong Junqin carried Ah Lu on his back and constantly dodged the attacks of the black shadow. And he seems to only target Ah Lu, and he doesn't care if he can hurt Dong Junqin. Dong Junqin's heart was crossed, and he took Ah Lu to his chest and pretended to resist, and the man in black stretched out his sword and stabbed Ah Lu. Dong Junqin hugged Ah Lu sideways, and his palm took the opportunity to push out from under Ah Lu's armpit, hitting the sword body with the formation that had been drawn.

A stream of electricity rushed down the sword into the shadow, causing him to retreat again and again. This is called treating others as they would have done their own thing.

Dong Junqin was empty, and immediately summoned the short sword, the hot hand is not necessarily the hot foot, and the flying of the sword is definitely good.

However, the black shadow followed, and seeing that he was about to catch him, Dong Junqin drove Edgeworth to reflexively rush straight down the black shadow. It was another unexpected return gun, the black shadow subconsciously took a few steps back, the two were close at hand, the black shadow stretched out his hand to grab someone, and Dong Junqin waved his arm out of a door formation.

At this time, the black shadow finally spoke, yelling badly, and wanted to enter the door formation together, but found that it was bounced out of the formation.

After escaping the catastrophe, Dong Junqin breathed a sigh of relief.

In order to prevent the black shadow from catching up, Dong Junqin made the sword array. It's just that he didn't have time to think about it at that time, and the Imperial Sword Array suddenly sent the two of them to the sky above Tianluo Town, which was more than 2,000 kilometers away from Qianxi Village, on the outskirts of Camel Mountain.

People are outside the customs, Dong Junqin can't care about those rules, and directly in the center of the crowded town, Yujian landed, hugged Ah Lu and found an inn that looked okay and asked for a room.

The out-of-body thing can be big or small, although he protects the soul from dissipating, but if he does not return to the body for a long time, then the body will be wasted. Even if I go back, I have all kinds of luck problems.

Dong Junqin gently put the person on the bed, took off his coat and sat cross-legged at the head of the bed, and then rested Ah Lu's head on his own lap.

The pictures on the three requiem talismans moved under Dong Junqin's light thoughts, slowly turning into grimaces with blue faces and fangs, and then disappeared, and the requiem talisman turned into three blank yellow talismans.

Dong Junqin closed his eyes, put the two fingers of his left hand in front of his lips, stretched out his right hand, and the two fingers were just above Ah Lu's chest. He felt a stream of spiritual energy slowly return to Ah Lu's body, reconnecting the tendons and veins, and the spiritual power flowed.

However, when the breath was transferred to Guan Yuan's acupoint, it was hindered.

Dong Junqin frowned, his fingers increased his strength, and a strange feeling arose.

More than an hour later, Dong Junqin put on his coat, got out of bed and sat down at the table, staring at Ah Lu for a moment.

What is the origin of her? Why is her aura floating abnormally powerful, infinitely powerful, and full of energy? Why is someone asking her to take Cheng Lai, who has no relatives or friends, home? Why is she being hunted down? Why are there two completely different souls in her body?

A series of whys, so that Dong Junqin couldn't wait to wake her up immediately and torture her carefully.

But there is another problem that prevents him from doing this: is it right or wrong to do so now that such a person full of doubts has been taken to Camel Mountain, is it a blessing or a curse?
