Chapter 14: Blue Creek Sits at Night
At midnight, the clouds obscure the moon.
A dense forest. The night stopped by the creek and looked at the reflection in the water.
A line of three-riders in black appeared in my sight, and I leaned against the tree, slowly took the short whistle in my hand to my mouth, and blew a long sound.
When the horses heard the sound, they rushed towards me, and the black-clothed men on the seat saw that they could not control the horses, so they immediately turned over and dismounted one by one, and stood ten meters in front of me.
"Who are you, what are you doing!" The man in black who spoke was a woman standing at the front, and the voice was a woman. Her tone was not good, she walked at night in the dense forest, and she was a trio of people, so she was naturally not afraid to see strange roadblockers.
My place was in the dark, and the woman couldn't see what I was wearing. Without a hurry to answer, I looked her up and down: masked, skinny, I don't know if she was ruthless or if she had practiced some strange kung fu, the joints of her sword-holding hands were protruding, and her nails were long and darkly painted.
The two people behind the woman are also skinny, half a head taller than the woman, the sword in their hands is the same style, and the nails and finger joints are normal.
"Who the hell are you!, don't speak, be careful of your life!" the woman's hand clenched, and her gaze stabbed at me viciously.
"I heard, you're the Blue Killer of the Seven Kills?" I said softly.
Before he could answer, the sword was unsheathed. She pointed her sword at me and asked, "Say!"
"Wang Yifu, the head of the Yucang faction, his wife Zhang, concubines Zhao and Wu, two sons and one daughter, a total of seven people. Did you kill it?" I asked, looking at her, without answering.
The woman kept staring at me, suddenly laughed, and said, "What, do you need to doubt the strength of Cai Qi Killing? We were commissioned by someone to kill a few people, what is it?"
"So, you're admitting you're the Blue Killer?" I asked again.
The woman snorted coldly and replied, "Of course." ”
I stepped out of the shadows, and with a wave of my right hand, my blue robe floated up behind me.
"Why did you choose the Blue Killer?" I asked.
When the woman saw me dressed in blue, her eyes lit up, and she asked vigilantly, "Who are you!"
"Who am I?" I stretched out my index finger and middle finger from my wide sleeve, and with a twist of my hand, a silver light flew out.
The woman's martial arts are not low, but she still covers her neck. Removing her hand, she saw a trail of blood on her hand.
"Cai Seven Kills, as the name says, there are seven killers, which are red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple. The ultimate killing weapon of every killer is a silver needle. But other than that, they all have their own martial arts or specialties. Red's disguise is unparalleled in the world, orange's footwork is unpredictable, yellow's patience is unmatched, green's light function is untraceable in stepping on snow, and green's ear power can distinguish voices for hundreds of miles. ”
Before I could finish speaking, I stopped and looked at her with a smile.
The woman was already in her posture and ready to go, her eyes drifting to the side from time to time, studying the terrain around her. The two behind her also stood in position, showing off their formation.
"Lan, this person, usually doesn't have many tasks. The few cases that left their names are understated by the government or the public. Maybe that's why you might think it's easier to pretend to be a Blue Killer and less noticeable. ”
"It's a pity you didn't study it properly. ”
I looked at her regretfully and continued: "Lan's physique has innate advantages, and she has also been regulated by internal and external medicines, so she can practice the most evil martial arts in the world. Even if you are eaten by your power, you will not lose your mind, let alone go crazy. Therefore, when she went on a mission, she faced the most vicious and powerful people in her heart, and their end was only death. ”
The family of the deceased was taboo, and they all concealed the details and simply reported to the government. As a result, the people on the rivers and lakes were not impressed by the blue killer. ”
"So, why did you choose to pretend to be the Blue Killer?" I asked, still looking at her, asking the question again.
"Don't talk nonsense! Take your life!" the woman struck first, her body was neat, a few points on the ground, and the tip of the sword was straight to the door in front of me.
Many dark sect martial arts are designed to take people's lives, and they win duels by crafting special weapons, formulating throat-sealing poisons, and even researching the most despicable strategies. But these are not the most evil martial arts, the most evil martial arts in the world are to stimulate people's animal nature.
What is bestiality? Bestiality refers to a very savage, brutal disposition. When the animalistic nature of human beings is stimulated, their blood boils all over their bodies, and they cannot hear the benevolence and morality of the other party in their ears, and they cannot see the shock and fear expressed by the other party in their eyes. Once they are ready, or stimulated by the other person's behavior, they will start acting.
Some sects will train some dead soldiers and give them long-term medicine to stimulate their animal nature. When carrying out tasks, they will continue with perseverance, and as long as there is still a breath of strength, they will also entangle their opponents to the end until they die.
These dead men are not easy to control, because their brains have long been eroded and they have lost their minds. Therefore, their end is generally bleak, either they are defeated by the savage power in their bodies and die in a rage, or they are abandoned and killed or banished.
Finally, some people felt compassion for the dead and began to wonder if there was a way to stimulate the animalistic nature, but also to preserve the mind, so that the consciousness could always control the body. However, hundreds of years have passed, and there has been no news of the success of such an attempt.
The tip of the sword grazed my cheek. In the last seconds when it was about to make contact with me, my head shifted to the right, my center of gravity dropped, and at the same time, my left foot exerted force, and the heel of my right foot slid towards the right front. The wide blue sleeves and blue hem of the shirt were still floating in the air, but I was already standing not far away looking at the woman, and the wind of my body was blowing my hair.
The other two men in black changed formation and attacked with the woman.
There seemed to be a flash of blue light in my eyes, and I jumped to my feet and rushed into the three-man formation. A series of coherent footwork, as if there is a lotus under the feet, and the blue clothes are like flying. Skirting past a man in black, my left hand slashing over his neck. Immediately, he fell to the ground with a bang, and there was blood around his neck.
Without stopping, it was the combination of footwork and body movement, and I jumped up, knelt on the shoulders of the second man in black with both legs, and clamped his head. The leg is strained, and the bone is twisted in response. It fell to the ground again.
The woman in black who was the leader saw that the situation was very bad, and ran away from the distance when she mentioned light work.
A palm-sized cloth bag was sewn into my belt, and I took out a sharp five-finger iron sleeve from it and put it on my left hand. Suddenly he rose from the ground, and the blue coat spread out, and flew forward at a very fast speed.
After borrowing strength from a tree branch three times, I appeared in front of the woman in black. A leg split, kicking the woman to the ground.
The woman spat out a mouthful of blood, and fear finally appeared in her eyes, and she asked me, "Are you the Blue Killer?"
"You shouldn't use my name to kill people under the banner of seven killings. I said to her.
I walked up to her and, without warning, plunged my left hand into her chest.
The woman's eyes bulged out and she also fell.
Looking around, there was still the same stream not far away. When the woman fled for her life, she did not panic, but followed the direction of the current, and her thinking was very clear.
Pacing to the stream, wash the five-finger iron sleeve on your left hand and remove it. Yun Neili flung behind him, shaking off the water on the iron jacket. Two steps away, Ye Hei stood aside, looking at the reflection in the water.
A high-pitched, bright nightingale cries broke the silence around them.
Night Black seemed to sense something and looked up at the other side of me.
A white and slender hand reached out, holding a silver needle in its fingertips.
"Don't waste it. So said the visitor. He was tall and thin, with a straight build, wearing a purple robe and a golden mask on his face. He was the Yew Lord I had seen in the Yishui Pavilion of Yunfu on the night of the full moon.
I took the silver needle, and it was spotless, and there was no sign that it had cut through the skin of the woman in black's neck and then fell into the grass.
"The seven killers of Cai Qi Kill all have their own martial arts or specialties, so what about Zi?" Yew asked, his gaze locking on me.
"Purple, omnipotent. I replied.
A black horse came out of the dense forest behind Yew, it was the brother of Night Black, Purple Wind, and one of the best horses in the sweaty horse.
The night darkness greeted him.
Yew suddenly grabbed my wrist and checked my pulse. A moment later, a gentle internal force was injected into my body, and I delved into my internal force.
I looked at him quietly.
Putting my hand down, Yew didn't speak. He walked over to the rocks by the stream and sat down, took off his mask, and set it aside. He took out a cowhide water bag and took a few sips.
In the color seven killings, I am an exception, and I have always shown my true face. Generally speaking, only the only person of high status can know what other people look like. Among the seven code names of red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple, only purple is the only one with high status.
Not daring to look at his face, I looked away, turned my back to him, and sat behind him.
"These people, all of them are thin and shaped like skeletons, and they also have deep blood grooves on their swords, which should be the 'Underworld Battalion' on the rivers and lakes. Yew said.
Although he couldn't see it, I nodded in agreement: "Well, they are also killer organizations, they only operate at night, they like to bloodletting, they are good at developing poisons, and I heard that their body is caused by taking chronic poisons all the time." ”
"Today, this woman's nails are covered with poison, and if her skin is cut by it, it is very dangerous. Yew said again.
"There must be an antidote to her. Because she can easily hurt the people around her, and she may also cut her own skin. I replied.
Yew did not comment on my opinion.
After a while, I heard him say, "What martial arts did Mrs. Muxiang let you practice, won't you go mad?"
I couldn't help it, I laughed, but I didn't make a sound, and only put the back of my finger between my nose and mouth to cover my smile.
"This martial art doesn't have a name, I'll call it the Snow Wolf Secret for the time being. This kung fu focuses on the internal force of coldness, which stimulates the energy potential of the human body, which is also known as 'animal nature'. It is inspired by the white wolves of the snowy regions, who are fierce, aggressive and, most importantly, resourceful. ”
"After this kung fu is practiced, the cold internal force can lie dormant in the body and will not flow. Only when it is awakened will it fill the whole body. As for going mad, not generally, if it does, there is no me now. I replied.
Yew didn't answer again.
After a while, he said, "Are you still taking medication?"
I put away my smile, remembered the pain of internal and external medication when I was a child, and replied lightly: "It's stopped." ”
"That's good. He said.
