Chapter 343: The Former Longquan Xu Zhenjiang (2)
Although the sword had been dodged, the strong man completely ignored the autumn condensation snow that was ready to attack.
"Poof!" the dagger sank into the strong man's chest, and he stared at Qiu Ningxue in disbelief.
Immediately after, the tall body fell to the ground.
At this time, the Sixiao Building was in a mess, with tables, chairs, benches, wine, meat and meals spilled everywhere. There were also seven or eight disciples of the Plum Blossom Village who were besieging a few strong men of the Demon Sect, and Qiu Ningxue turned over and jumped down.
After the disciples saw the autumn condensation, they knew that something great had been accomplished. They gathered in pairs and jumped out of the window in unison.
As for Kaiyang Tower, it has already been surrounded by raging fires at this moment. The people inside can't get out, and no one outside dares to step further.
"Drive!" More than ten fast horses rushed out of the west gate of Lin'an City, the first of them with a ponytail and high braids, dressed in tight clothes. This person is Qiu Ningxue.
Behind him, followed by the disciples of Meihuazhuang who had just made a big fuss about Sixiaolou. More than 20 people galloped on horseback, waiting to reach the pine forest. Shen Linfeng and Xu Zhenjiang, who was knocked unconscious, had been waiting for a long time.
"How's it going?"
Qiu Ningxue nodded.
"The fire burned so badly that the people of the Demon Sect couldn't catch up for a while. ”
"Well, then we can't let our guard down! This Xu Zhenjiang is very familiar with the officers and soldiers guarding the city, and the people of the Demon Sect will know our whereabouts as long as they inquire a little. ”
"What then?"
Shen Linfeng pondered for a while, and said: "Don't get in the way, after leaving Hechun County, there are many roads that can get to the imperial capital. When the time comes, we will split up, and they may not all be able to catch up. But...... There's something more important right now!"
"What?"
Shen Linfeng set his eyes on Xu Zhenjiang on horseback.
"Just let this guy speak first, or we'll still lose all our efforts. ”
Qiu Ningxue nodded, she naturally understood the truth. But the current situation is urgent, and the fire in front of Kaiyang Tower will not burn endlessly. As long as the fire is extinguished, it is natural that someone will chase after them.
"What if he doesn't speak?
Shen Linfeng sneered: "This Xu Zhenjiang is a man of fame and fortune, do you think he will disregard his own life for the sake of the Demon Sect?"
Qiu Ningxue glanced behind her anxiously.
"So what do I do next?"
"Let's talk about it when we get to Hechun County!"
"Hmm!"
Hechun County. The county seat is not large, but it is very lively. Just because of its geographical location, the east, west, north and south of the Celestial Empire can be reached from here.
Therefore, most of the people in the county are passers-by who come and go, and although Shen Linfeng's team attracts attention, it doesn't make it strange for people to arrive. After all, there are people like this in Hechun County almost every day.
Shen Linfeng chose an inn with a relatively remote location, the building was dilapidated, and it was obviously some years old. However, the inn has a very large backyard. There are more than a dozen large and small houses in the courtyard, no more, no less, just enough to accommodate the disciples of Meihuazhuang.
Before everyone had time to rest, Qiu Ningxue sent three or four waves of men and horses in a row. They were distributed on various important roads into the city, especially in the direction of Lin'an City, and they sent additional manpower. As soon as they found that someone from the Demon Sect was passing by, these secret sentinels would immediately rush back to report it.
In the guest room, Xu Zhenjiang collapsed on the bed. His palms hung to the ground, blood soaked red in thick gauze. The pain was so severe that he would still have a few convulsions from time to time, even in a comatose state.
"Hey, Shopkeeper Xu, wake up quickly!" Shen Linfeng slapped Xu Zhenjiang's old face vigorously.
"Hmm......" Xu Zhenjiang slowly opened his eyes, which may be the reason for the bleeding palm. So much so that his whole face turned pale.
"Where is this?" asked Xu Zhenjiang weakly.
Shen Linfeng didn't talk nonsense with him, and directly moved a chair to sit opposite him.
"Xu Zhenjiang, I want to make a deal with you now. ”
Xu Zhenjiang sneered at the corner of his mouth, and then said: "What kind of deal is it?
"Tell me where you made friends with the Demon Sect!"
"Okay, then what benefits can I get?" Xu Zhenjiang showed a treacherous face.
"I'll exchange something with you, and I'm sure Shopkeeper Xu will be interested in it. ”
Xu Zhenjiang's eyes widened, and he really leaned forward.
"What's that?"
Shen Linfeng looked at him without flinching.
"Your life!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Qiu Ningxue's wrist flip. The plum blossom sword on his waist quickly stabbed forward from the sheath, and the sharp tip of the sword was only half an inch away from Xu Zhenjiang's throat.
"Hmph, it's really worthy of being the shopkeeper of Xu Da, he is about to die, and he even dares to talk to us about the conditions. ”
"Haha......" Xu Zhenjiang smiled on his back.
"Could it be...... If you kill me, you'll never want to know the whereabouts of those two people. ”
Qiu Ningxue's face was angry, and the plum blossom sword in her hand stabbed forward a little.
"Wait!" Shen Linfeng hurriedly stopped Qiu Ningxue.
Xu Zhenjiang looked proud.
"Why don't you tell the shopkeeper, what conditions do you want?"
"Me?" Xu Zhenjiang looked up and pondered, and then said: "I don't lack anything in gold, silver and jewelry, the only thing I want, but I can't get is ......" After speaking, he moved his gaze to Qiu Ningxue's body.
Xu Zhenjiang's smile was even stronger.
"Brother Shen, if you are willing to let this girl accompany me to drink two glasses, then I may tell the Demon Sect where to hand over the person. ”
Qiu Ningxue was about to attack, Xu Zhenjiang hurriedly preemptively said: "Not only that, I can even tell you...... The trap laid by the Demon Sect in the Nanyang Gathering House. ”
Shen Linfeng was expressionless from beginning to end, and he looked at Xu Zhenjiang like this. Watching him smile so proudly, so rampantly.
Suddenly, Shen Linfeng stretched out his arm and grabbed Xu Zhenjiang's collar. Before he could react, Shen Linfeng had already slammed him to the ground.
Xu Zhenjiang struggled to get up, but Shen Linfeng jumped up directly and kicked him hard in the back.
"Poof!" a mouthful of blood spurted wildly to the ground.
Shen Linfeng flipped his body over, and then punched him in the head.
"Fight, fight! After killing Lao Tzu, you don't want to know anything. ”
Shen Linfeng turned a deaf ear to his shouts, and the fists he swung out were even denser than the raindrops.
Xu Zhenjiang could barely struggle twice at first, but later he was lying on the ground like a dead dog.
Shen Linfeng saw him faint and pulled out the dagger directly from his waist.
"Ah......" Xu Zhenjiang let out a painful wail, and his other palm had already been pierced by the dagger.
