The rules of the martial arts sect are extremely strict, unless it is the head of the sect, anyone who leaves needs to report to the sect and be approved.

On the one hand, this is for ease of management, and on the other hand, it is also for the sake of the safety of the masters in the sect.

Of course, it was impossible for Shi Xiaole to tell the Sword Painting Sect.

Now that the Great Elder is covering the sky with one hand, he doesn't want his whereabouts to be known, otherwise he will be in constant danger.

So he chose to leave secretly.

Naturally, the mountain gate could not be walked, but fortunately, the original owner often ran to the back mountain alone to stay due to his withdrawn temperament, and inadvertently found a hidden trail down the mountain for him.

Shi Xiaole came to the edge of the cliff without hurry, stopped, turned around and said, "Sneaky, come out." ”

No sound.

"Why, the famous madman Zhao actually played a game of tracking?"

In the midst of the slurp, the forest trees parted, the long sword at his waist, and the cold Zhao Buping walked out, puzzled: "How did you find me?"

Because of the cultivation of the Hengshan Heart Method, Shi Xiaole's ears and eyes were much more sensitive than in the past, so from the moment he walked out of the courtyard gate, he found that someone was following.

Of course, he wouldn't explain to Zhao Buping, but said, "Senior Brother Zhao, what is your intention in following me?"

Hearing this, Zhao Buping smiled and said: "This place is called the cliff, the cliff that breaks people's lives, Shi Xiaole, do you understand?"

Shi Xiaole said: "You and I have no grudges, if you say that for that day's competition, it didn't reach the point of killing, could it be that someone instructed you?"

Zhao Buping's slender hand grasped the sword, and while approaching step by step, the murderous aura on his body erupted undisguised, and the expression on his face was like that of a hunter who slaughtered prey, and said: "No need to talk about it, it's useless, you should go to Lord Yama to seek answers." ”

As soon as the last word fell, Zhao Buping drew his sword and stabbed Shi Xiaole with a sword.

The last time he lost the competition, he unexpectedly lost to Shi Xiaole, which made Zhao Buping feel shame and anger that he had never felt before.

These days, there is no need for the Great Elder to say more, he hides outside Shi Xiaole's courtyard on time every day, and slaughters this kid at every opportunity.

As for the door rules or something, in the heart of Zhao Buping, who was already crazy, it no longer had any effect, not to mention that there was the support of the Great Elder, what were you afraid of.

Hiding Qi Fivefold, with the shape of the perfect painting plum swordsmanship, Zhao Buping's sword is extraordinarily powerful, the sword light is like a plum blossom, and at the same time stabs at Shi Xiaole's eight fatal acupuncture points.

In the face of this sword, the best way is to retreat, but unfortunately there is a cliff in the rear, and there is no way to retreat.

If it was half a month ago, Shi Xiaole could only close his eyes and wait for death.

But now, all that rose in his heart was full of fighting spirit.

Brush!

The silver light flashed, and the two long swords slammed into each other, making a sonorous sound.

Shi Xiaole took a step back, struggled to avoid from the side in a moment, and then killed Zhao Buping, the sword light Huo Huo continued, and the defense was an attack.

"Blocked the sword?"

Zhao Buping said that it was not shocked to be fake, this was almost a blow with all his strength, how could Shi Xiaole block it?

Could it be that he has been pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger before?

"No matter how much strength you have, the realm can't deceive people, you will definitely die!"

Zhao Buping roared wildly, and the twelve-style painting plum sword technique was displayed in one go, vowing to put Shi Xiaole to death.

I have to say that the painting plum swordsmanship is indeed much more clever than the basic swordsmanship, and under the impetus of the realm of consummation, Zhao Buping's sword path is a plum blossom, and the stamens are Shi Xiaole.

It's a pity that Shi Xiaole is not panicked, although his moves are unpretentious, he can always block the other party's killing moves, although he retreats again and again, and is at a disadvantage.

"God's consummation? impossible!"

The swordsmanship has been suppressed repeatedly, coupled with that magical charm, Zhao Buping couldn't have imagined that Shi Xiaole had cultivated the basic swordsmanship to the terrifying realm of divine consummation.

In his impression, in the past few decades, the only person in the Sword Painting School who can do this is the most talented third senior sister, why is Shi Xiaole?!

"Zhao Buping, I have always been a person with clear grievances, if you want to kill me, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

Shi Xiaole's sword path changed, from simple and unpretentious, to strange and dangerous all of a sudden, and he actually faced the tip of the opponent's sword and killed him.

In the previous battle with Zhao Buping, after all, there were many onlookers, so Shi Xiaole did not use Huashan swordsmanship to his heart's content, but only made others feel that it was a desperate sword.

Now that the moves are exhausted, the strange feeling of danger and danger, like an invisible hand, suddenly grabbed Zhao Buping's throat.

Shi Xiaole drew his sword and suddenly ran out.

Zhao Buping thought that he was going to flee back to the sect, but he was in a hurry, and his sword momentum was in chaos. At this moment, Shi Xiaole suddenly turned around and pierced Zhao Buping's left chest with a sword from the oblique side.

Laugh at!

The tip of the sword is stained with blood.

Zhao Buping's pupils dilated, and his mouth was open, as if he couldn't believe all this.

"It's a pity that you only know how to cast swordsmanship in order, but you don't know how to improvise. ”

Shi Xiaole drew his sword, stabbed again, and after sneering three times, Zhao Buping was so dead that he couldn't die anymore, and his body was pushed off the cliff by Shi Xiaole.

Zhao Buping is right in saying that this is a cliff that kills people. It's a pity that it was not Shi Xiaole's life that was broken, but his life.

After quickly wiping the blood on the sword with leaves and confirming that there were no traces left at the scene, Shi Xiaole returned from the original way, followed his memory, and found the secret way down the mountain in the other direction, and his figure quickly disappeared into the jungle.

......

Cuiyu City is a city with a population of more than several million, the streets of the city are smooth, all kinds of shops stand along the streets, the flow of people is like weaving, and from time to time you can see Jianghu customers with swords on their waists.

The so-called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible. After admiring the mundane paintings of ancient China, Shi Xiaole began to investigate the information of the three-legged bird.

As for who to investigate, it is naturally the poor family to help the disciples.

The top martial arts forces in Qingxue Prefecture can be summarized as two major demon palaces, three major gangs, four major families and eight major sects.

The Poor Family Gang is one of the three major gangs.

The nature of this gang is similar to that of the beggar gang in the previous life, all of them recruit poor children into the gang, and the personnel can be said to be all over the major cities of Qinglangor Prefecture.

In the streets and alleys, as far as the eye can see, there are four or five poor disciples among about ten beggars.

"Little brother, can you make a deal?"

Taking out a piece of silver, Shi Xiaole looked at a sloppy man with sparkling eyes.

The sloppy man snorted, "What deal?"

"Help me inquire about a river thief named Three-Legged Bird. I want all the information about him, the more detailed the better. ”

Looking at the silver in Shi Xiaole's hand, the sloppy man smiled: "You are a bit interesting." If you speak to the uncle in a tone of alms and orders, even if you take out the gold ingots, you don't want the uncle to move his toes. Children, this deal was accepted, and I was here three days later. ”

The sloppy man got up and left, quickly disappearing into the crowd.

Looking at his back, Shi Xiaole laughed for a while.

With the money left by his aunt, Shi Xiaole did not have any scruples about spending the money. He booked the cleanest upper room in the most luxurious inn in Cuiyu City, and practiced in the room for three days in a row.

The battle with Zhao Buping seemed to stimulate his potential, making him feel a film that seemed to be nothing.

That's the bottleneck of the fourfold gas storage.

Shi Xiaole believes that according to the current progress, it will take about another month, and his internal strength realm will definitely be able to make another breakthrough.

On the fourth day, at the same time and in the same place, Shi Xiaole handed over the silver, took a file in the hands of the sloppy man, and left with a smile.

"It looks like he's only fifteen or sixteen years old, but he can get things done, and it's really simple. ”

The sloppy man muttered, and after checking the silver, he could go to Yihong Courtyard to be happy again tonight.

......

There is a huge bamboo forest in Cuiyu City, opposite the lake, and a two-story restaurant is built on the edge of the lake.

On this day, as soon as the drizzling winter rain ended, a young man in Tsing Yi walked in.

"Oh, what do you want?"

The proprietress lit up in her eyes and greeted warmly.

"As long as it's meat, give it to me. ”

Shi Xiaole sat by the window and said briefly.

Poof!

Shi Xiaole's arrival suddenly broke the tense and frozen atmosphere in the restaurant, and a delicate girl couldn't help but laugh and glanced at him.

Brush!

At this moment, an ordinary-looking man suddenly burst out and slashed at the table where the girl was, but the person was out of the restaurant at the same time.

"Three-legged bird, I've been chasing you for a long time, where are you going to escape!"

At the same table with the girl, there were two teenagers, both of whom were cultivating the six levels of Tibetan Qi, and at this time, they shot together, and the two swords were killed on the left and the right.

The girl is not simple, she snorted, drew her sword and stood up, and she actually had the cultivation of the five levels of hidden qi.

After probably a fierce fight, after a while, the three of them returned to the inn, carrying the man in their hands.

"Haha, the rumors in the rivers and lakes are really not credible, they all say that the three-legged bird you have killed the master of the Qi Realm, which caused us to be so worried in advance, it turned out to be so useless. ”

A teenager laughed, smug.

All the guests here have heard the name of the three-legged bird, and they all came up to congratulate the two men and one woman at this time.

"Senior brother, Jin Zhutou is still waiting for us, go to the yamen and hand over this person. ”

The pretty girl looked at the three-legged bird with disgust, and couldn't help but glance at Shi Xiaole, and after the other steady young man paid for the wine, the three of them left with everyone and left together.

At this time, Shi Xiaole, who was full of wine and food, walked up to another taciturn man and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, I want to ask you for something." ”

"Something. ”

The man said in a low voice.

"Your head. ”

The man raised his head and said with a smile: "Why does the young man want my head?"

"Because you're a thief, a three-legged bird. ”

As soon as these words came out, the guests in the inn who had not yet left were all dumbfounded, just caught a three-legged bird, and another one appeared here, what are you doing?

Some of them pondered, and then suddenly showed disdain.

In these years, in order to get a position, there are really everyone. In their opinion, Shi Xiaole must have acted in this play in order to become famous.

After all, the three young people just now were the top disciples of the Dusty Sect among the thirteen factions of Luyan Mountain, and one of them was very famous in the rivers and lakes of Cuiyu City, so it was impossible to deceive them.
