Chapter 15: Silence is Better Than Sound (3)

"Who are you, stealing other people's things in broad daylight?" Yan Shan was not afraid, and habitually asked this sentence knowing that others would not answer obediently.

"Hahaha, you don't have to know who we are, but we're going to decide on this painting today. The burly masked man took the portrait from the woman in black and fiddled with it leisurely, not taking Yan Shan in his eyes at all.

"If you don't hand over the portrait, you're welcome. Yan Shan stretched out his palm obliquely is the starting style of Baiyun Long Fist, he has always been a person who is not good at words, not to mention that he doesn't need to bother to talk about this kind of gangster.

The woman in black held her face with the back of her hand, and said with a coquettish smile: "Hehe, depending on you, I think it's a little more tender." ”

Before the woman's voice fell, there were two more people around Lin Yanshan, except for Cao Qingshi and Yang Zhen, who else was slightly inferior to Yanshan, but after this small stagnation, the two also caught up.

"You're here too!" Yan Shan said happily.

Qingshi smiled and said, "We are both friends and classmates, how can we let you be alone in danger." ”

"It's just a small broken portrait that has bothered the three big ones, and the matter is really not simple, and your move must have been premeditated. Yang Zhen saw that the other party was not good, and he was not polite, so he decisively drew his sword in his hand, "Tell me what your purpose is?"

"It's useless to say more, the portrait is here, and if you have the ability, you can take it. The masked man said arrogantly with the scroll in his hand.

"We have our own positions, and since we refuse to hand it back, we have to do it. Yan Shan's expression also became serious.

The two sides have already been tense, and the battle situation is about to break out, forming a three-on-three situation, the burly masked man against Lin Yanshan, the tall and thin masked man with the sword against Yang Zhen, and the woman in black against Cao Qingshi.

I saw Qing Shi's long sword stabbed out, the woman in black retreated, her palm raised, and shot out two hidden weapons, which were two thin willow leaf darts, the sound of breaking the wind roared, Qing Shi stopped in horror and waved the sword away.

The woman in black didn't let her opponent have room to make moves, and with a wave of her hand, three darts shot head-on.

Qing Shi was wary and immediately avoided it, took out a spirit rune from his arms, and threw it with his fingertips with spiritual power, and the soft paper rune was as hard as an iron piece after being injected with spiritual power, and flew diagonally towards the opponent.

The woman in black also reacted very quickly, and gracefully turned her face to avoid it, but unexpectedly, Qing Shi immediately raised her finger and chanted, "Get up." The paper talisman burned at the moment when she passed by the woman in black, and the woman was shocked and didn't have time to take care of her life experience and hurriedly sideflip to avoid it, because the change just now suddenly burned a handful of hair on her sideburns, and the original flower was also a little discolored, "The little girl has two hits." ”

Don't say much at the moment, she opened her hands together, sent out a ball of willow leaf darts to attack the opponent, Qing Shi also practiced hard day and night in the Siyun Temple, the body reaction has been quite sensitive, and the kung fu of listening to the sound and identifying the position is also very good, the darts shot by the opponent have been avoided one by one, she knows that the opponent is a good hand at making secret weapons, and she can't get close to the opponent for a while, so she repeats the trick and uses her most exquisite rune to fight the enemy, she holds three paper talismans between her fingers, and the spiritual power is infused at the same time......

Here, Yanshan and the masked man fought more intensely.

I saw Yanshan's fist straight out in the middle, the big man crossed his palm to block, Yanshan's punch was only to explore the way in fact, there was a back, the iron fist then swept over, the big man was tall but his movements were extremely fast, his head was tilted back to avoid, and with the big circle hand on Yanshan's arm, Yanshan immediately retracted his fist and took two steps back.

The masked man beckoned to come again, Yan Shan was not polite, and he kicked his opponent like a tiger, but the big man suddenly jumped up and crossed the top of Yan Shan's head, as fast as a ghost, and had fallen behind Yan Shan.

Yan Shan was shocked and turned around to sweep his fist, and the big man made a move to fly up faster and imprinted a heavy kick on Yan Shan's back waist, and Yan Shan was kicked so that the whole person flew forward.

After eating the opponent's blow, although it hurt into the muscles and bones, but did not hurt the internal organs, Yan Shan was young and strong, gritted his teeth and bounced up again, and his hands continued to be solemn.

"You kid has all the strength, but you're so slow that you can't beat me at all. ”

The two were entangled together, half a hundred moves had passed, and Yan Shan ate a few more punches from his opponent, but he still didn't hit his opponent.

At this time, the masked man in his hand suddenly frowned, as if he noticed something unusual, and said in his heart: "This kid has a little strange hands and feet?" The big man has no momentum and does not let people progress The iron fist went straight out, Yan Shan did not make a big move to dodge, the palm was cleverly obliquely opened, and the right foot bounced up, this kick was extremely fast, and quietly, and he was about to kick the big man, but the big man reacted faster, and his belly shrank back like lightning, and Yan Shan's toes bounced straight away from the big man's lower abdomen and there was still an inch in time.

The masked man had already withdrawn from the place on his toes, and let out a long breath: "It's dangerous, haha, but you still can't beat me." ”

Yan Shan couldn't help but be angry, the meteor fist was a round of fast fighting, and the masked man also made a quick punch and Yan Shan's iron fist collided hard, only to see the two sides come and go, and the fist shadow is vertical and horizontal. The big man in the fist saw the opportunity to circle his hand to press Yanshan's fist, and his five fingers were like a sword and marked Yanshan's throat, Yanshan's head and neck quickly leaned back to avoid it, and the masked man's five fingers went straight with the fist, hitting Yanshan's throat hard, Yanshan was beaten back a few steps, his breath was chaotic, and he hurriedly adjusted his luck.

And the situation on Yang Zhen's side is even worse, the masked man who made the sword is obviously a seasoned sword player, Yang Zhen has been in the beginner for a short time, and his swordsmanship is not perfect, how can he resist the opponent's lightning-fast sword, only to be forced to retreat by the opponent.

Yang Zhen usually fights with people is a contest between the same door, he has never tried to compete with a sword as desperately as now, seeing that the opponent's sword move is faster than a sword, he will be sent to Huangquan if he is a little careless, he is a shrewd person, and it is natural that he will feel scared when he is very young, at this time he has already been frightened, and his heart is extremely reluctant to sprout a shout, which is a cry for mercy, but he is a person with strong self-esteem, the brothers are fighting desperately, how can he disregard his face, shamelessly kneel on the ground and beg for mercy。 The trembling arms are not to mention that they want to fight back, and it is quite difficult to even resist.

"Hahaha, the disciple of Siyunguan turned out to be this timid and mouse-like virtue, which is really impressive. Seeing that Yang Zhen was cowardly, the sword man had a look of disdain on his face, and he swung his sword to pick up the loose long sword in Yang Zhen's hand, turned around and kicked Yang Zhen out of the air.

Yang Zhen often learned martial arts with his father at home when he was a child, and he worshiped Sixin for nearly a year, he studied and practiced Siyun Mind Method diligently on weekdays, and his internal and external skills have a foundation, and he will not be kicked down by ordinary people, but at this time, he covered the wound with his hands, and his feet seemed to be unable to stand up anymore.

"Whoosh" "Whoosh" "Whoosh"

It is the sound of the hidden weapon breaking the wind, although the battle between Qingshi and the woman in black is not fierce, but it is extremely dangerous. Qing Shi's spiritual power cultivation is limited, and the spiritual energy injected into the paper rune can only make the paper rune hard and fly towards the enemy, but cannot directly hurt people, the three spirit runes she sent were interrupted halfway by the willow leaf dart shot by the woman in black, and the willow leaf dart was castrated and shot head-on, ding! Qing Shi hurriedly swung his sword to pull away the two, and avoided one sideways. Because Qing Shi continued to use talismans, the spiritual power consumption was too large, and his movements became sluggish.

"Xiao Nizi is already poor in donkey skills, look at the darts. The woman in black saw the timing and fired three ruthless darts with extreme agility.

Qing Shi paid attention to the movement of the willow leaf darts, and used the long sword to push away all the darts as before, "Ah." Qing Shi screamed and was injured on the ground, her arm was filled with three slender steel needles, fortunately, she only injured her arm with the sword steel needle just now, but she couldn't hurt the body.

"What a shrewd and cautious girl, it's not easy for you to be fooled. The woman in black knew that Qing Shi was meticulous and agile, and it was not easy to hurt her with a hidden weapon, so the woman deliberately kept attacking with a willow leaf dart just now, in order to make Qing Shi think that she only used a hidden weapon, and then ignored the three steel needles mixed in the willow leaf dart.

The woman in black didn't want to entangle anymore when she saw that she had temporarily knocked down the three of them, because there was no grudge against each other, and the reason why they wanted to steal paintings was nothing more than to accept people's money to do things for others, and they couldn't hurt people, let alone tie up with a decent family like Siyunguan, "The things are in hand, don't entangle with these three children anymore, and leave quickly." ”

The two masked men actually had the same idea as the woman, and the three of them jumped back together, and the burly man said in a warning tone: "This time it's your fate, the uncle has something to do with you and doesn't care about you, if you dare to chase after me again, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”

The woman in black threw down a smoke bomb, and the whole audience suddenly became thick with smoke, and when the smoke dissipated, the three of them had long since disappeared.

"Are you all right?" Yan Shan saw that Qingshi was injured and blamed himself, so he hurriedly went over to help each other and comforted anxiously, "It's all because I didn't protect you well, so I let you get hurt." ”

Qing Shi saw his anxious face and red ears at a loss, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, "I'm fine, the steel needle is not fed with poison, and it can't hurt the vital point, it's just an injury outside the skin, and it's not a big problem." As he spoke, he stood up and pulled out the three steel needles in his arm one by one, and then bandaged them with strips of cloth.

Yang Zhen also picked up the steel sword on the ground at this time, walked over and said, "Fortunately, the thief didn't mean to hurt anyone, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." ”

At this time, Qing Shi's brows furrowed deeply, and she pondered: "Xiaoshan, do you remember the moves of the two masked men?

Yan Shan personally fought with the masked man, closed his eyes and recalled his moves, and suddenly remembered the past in Zhengxian Temple last year, and his heart suddenly became clear: "Could it be that he was defeated by Qinghai and Qingsong in the temple last year, that Wu Fugui's minions, the iron fist Fan Zhong and the fast sword Shen Sheng." ”

"Yes, looking at the body shape and moves, it is indeed these two people. After Yanshan said this, Qing Shi hammered his palm to further affirm the identity of the two masked men.

"Iron fist Fan Zhong, fast sword Shen Sheng, what the hell is going on?" Last year, Yang Zhen hadn't yet entered the sect, so he didn't know anything about it.

At the moment, Qing Shi briefly said that last year, Wu Fugui forcibly broke into the temple in order and was blocked by Siyun's disciples.

Yang Zhen heard that the dark clouds in his heart had dispersed, and he also guessed what was going on, and his eyes became bright, "I finally know the purpose of the thief stealing the painting." Seeing the questioning eyes of the senior brothers, he paused and proudly continued: "Last year, that Wu Fugui was defeated by us and lost face, and he has always wanted to take revenge on our Siyunguan, but the thugs under his command are all mediocre hands, and they dare not directly challenge our master, so they have to use this dirty method of stealing paintings to frame us for a crime of poor management and protection, so as to damage the reputation of Siyunguan. ”

Yan Shan understood what was going on and nodded, raised his head again, and looked at the place where the thief disappeared with an attached gaze, "In that case, I must chase the scroll back." ”

Seeing Yan Shan's expression, it seemed that he had not considered it at all, his blazing eyes looked straight ahead, and he strode forward. Yang Zhen hurriedly stepped forward and took his arm to persuade: "Senior brother, don't move, we are not their opponents, besides, it is just a worthless old painting, even if it is lost, it will not damage the reputation of Siyunguan, they are not good men and women, if they rush forward and provoke the villains, I am afraid that their lives will be in danger." ”

"I'm not just for the sake of thinking, but more for myself. Because I don't want to be left behind by Xiaoyun, Xiaoyun has now entered the Shaoyang Gate, with his talent, why is it a thousand miles a day, if I don't try to catch up with the pace of the slightest stagnation, I'm afraid I can't even see Xiaoyun's back, let alone chase him. Now I must not allow the masked man to trip and fall here. Yan Shan said and ran forward without hesitation.

When Yang Zhen looked up, he saw Yan Shan's side face full of perseverance, this speech made his heart tremble, he was burdened with a sea of blood and hatred, and he was afraid of it here when he encountered a small difficulty, so he could not think of revenge in this life, how to be worthy of his deceased father under Jiuquan, he held the hilt of the sword in his palm and pinched out the sound of "magnetic magnetism", and chased his heart horizontally.

In the past, she only saw Duan Xiyun's back in front of Cao Qingshi's eyes, but in a silent way, Lin Yanshan's back also appeared in front of her, and the figures of the two of them walked farther and farther, as if they had reached the place where she could not reach the most.

Qingshi is immersed in memories:

It was in Siyunguan's martial arts training ground, and Qing Shi sat on the ground weakly, because the talisman practice she had insisted on was unsuccessful, which made her feel very frustrated. It just so happened that the head of Jinping passed by. When Qing Shi saw his master's respectful face, he couldn't help but have tears in his eyes, "Master, is the apprentice not suitable for cultivating runes? Even a slightly complicated immortal bird rune is always not good at mastering." Jin Ping said warmly: "In the vast Dao realm, there is not one person in a hundred who chooses to cultivate the talisman, do you know why?"

Qing Shi looked at the master and shook his head in confusion.

Jin Ping continued: "One is that most people lack the talent to practice talismans, and the other is that they are too troublesome to achieve quick success, because talismans are difficult to learn and master, and the effect of practice is much slower than that of fists, feet, and equipment. The fact that you can choose to cultivate talismans proves that you are a person who is not ambitious, patient and meticulous, which is already quite commendable. ”

"In this way, it must be a mediocre disciple, and he can't get a glimpse of the mystery of the talisman at all. Qing Shi's heart was even more depressed when she heard this, maybe her original choice was a mistake at all, and all these years were tantamount to wasted efforts.

"No, no, according to the teacher's observation, there are two other main reasons why you can't master the essentials of this move. ”

"What is the reason, please make it clear to the master?"

"The first is that your current spiritual cultivation is insufficient, and the second is that you lack the determination to bravely challenge difficulties. Jin Ping knows that the so-called cultivation must rely on oneself to comprehend and understand in order to grasp the essentials more profoundly, "You are a malleable talent, don't give up easily, as long as you can persevere in the penance of the talisman, you will be successful in the future." So Jin Ping didn't bother much, and naturally walked away with his hands behind his back.

Qing Shi stood up and thought hard about the meaning of her master's words......

Now she finally understood the meaning of her master's words, and thought: "Now not only Yanshan, Xiaoyun must also be constantly working hard to cultivate, I can't retreat at this time, it is impossible to grow faster than others without setting harsher conditions for myself, I also have to move forward bravely, and I also have to challenge more difficulties, I don't want to be left far behind by them." ”

Her gaze became extremely resolute, and she chased after Yan Shan and Yang Zhen like a fly.
