Since Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty killed his father and killed his brother to seize the throne, he was very happy, he was overwhelmed with tyranny, and at the same time, he ordered people to dig the Grand Canal connecting the north and south, and built a palace with a lot of civil engineering, so that the world was not quiet, thieves were everywhere, the people were not happy, and everyone was in danger.

Yangzhou since the experience of the three kingdoms and the two Jin Dynasty economic center of gravity southward development down, has been the world's first class of rich land, not to mention anything else, just the martial arts hall is dozens, if the scale of prestige, then the first by Yangzhou master [push the mountain] Shi Long personally founded the stone dragon martial arts field.

However, in recent days, Shi Longhu's temperament has changed greatly, and he no longer goes to the martial arts hall to manage affairs, and hands over all the business to his disciples, but because the martial arts field is hung with his name, people from near and far are still on the way. Shi Long's internal and external skills have reached the realm of first-rate masters, otherwise he would not be able to break into a huge reputation in the rivers and lakes and maintain his fame for decades.

This person has a good nature, celibate and does not marry, since a few months ago to find the Taoist supreme treasure book "longevity formula", he lives alone in a small village on the outskirts of the city, staying at home, all day long immersed in the study and playing of this Taoist secret treasure book "longevity formula", even the necessities of life are regularly sent by the apprentice.

According to the oral tradition of the past dynasties, this book comes from the ancient Yellow Emperor's teacher Guangchengzi, written in oracle bone inscription, profound and difficult to understand, the sages have read this book, although there is no lack of wisdom through the world, but no one can understand and decipher the whole book. There are 7,400 glyphs in the book, but only about 3,000 glyphs have been deciphered. The book is also densely packed with annotations from those who have read the book, but they are often more confusing than the original text. Fortunately, there are seven humanoid figures in the book, none of which are oriented towards each other, and are guided by various symbols such as red dots, arrows, etc., as if they are describing a certain method of cultivation, but those who do not understand its meaning can not practice.

The stone dragon has been in contrast to this book for several months, but he still has nothing, just like a treasure in front of him, but there is no key to open the door. When I meditated on this day, an alarm suddenly appeared in my heart, and I couldn't concentrate on the treasure book, and I was muttering, when I suddenly heard footsteps outside the court, and then the disciple's voice came: "Master, the apprentice has brought you food." ”

"Come in. ”

Just as the stone dragon spoke, a pitch-black sword light was like wind and electricity from the top of the stone dragon's head, and it quickly stabbed down from the beam.

Shi Long's cultivation is a whole, and both internal and external skills have reached the first-class level of the rivers and lakes, but this sword came suddenly, it came quickly, and it came even more weirdly and fiercely.

Shi Long is worthy of being a first-class master in the rivers and lakes, although this sword came suddenly and strangely and dangerously, in an instant of life and death, Shi Long still reacted quickly, and turned around and hit a palm It is Shi Long's decades of fame stunt pusher!

Although it was sent in a hurry, the strength of Shi Long's palm was as strong as a mountain, and the air around him was driven, and he crashed into the person behind him like a crash into the city.

With this move, Shi Long is full of confidence, and he will definitely be able to force the sneak attackers behind him to retreat!

But at this time, the fierce color in the eyes of the sneak attacker behind him flashed, and the hand holding the sword shook violently, but the sword in his hand flew out of his hand. At the same time, a pitch-black sleeve arrow in his left hand was launched under the machine spring, piercing the stone dragon face door.

Although he avoided the long sword that came out of his hand, he couldn't avoid the sleeve arrow that attacked at the same time, and the stone dragon snorted, and his right arm was already hit by an arrow.

"Despicable!" the stone dragon blurted out, his eyes full of anger, and he glared at the person in front of him. But I saw that the person who came was dressed in gray clothes, about thirty or forty years old, eight feet tall, mediocre in appearance, and a pair of eyes revealed a ruthless meaning.

"Mean, and even more despicable. The middle-aged man let out a sharp sneer: "I am an assassin, and I like to smear poison on weapons." ”

"You!" Shi Long was dumbfounded, but he felt that his right arm that was shot by the sleeve arrow was unconscious, and he was shocked and hurriedly moved his fingers to seal the meridian flow of his right arm. At this time, the middle-aged gray-clothed man did not hesitate to pick up the longevity recipe on the table, and even didn't want the sword he discarded, and rushed out of the house with light skills.

There was a young disciple of the Shilong Martial Arts Pavilion standing outside the door, and when he saw the gray-clothed man rushing out of the room, he was stunned for a moment, and the gray-clothed man smiled at the disciple, and then fled here with his own light skills.

Seeing that the longevity secret was taken away, Shi Long was angry and angry but did not dare to make a move, he knew that the top priority at this moment was to force out the poison in his body as soon as possible, otherwise the venom would invade between the heart and lungs, and this life would be confessed immediately. But Shi Long still refused to give up, and said angrily to the disciple who came to deliver the food: "You saw that person just now, and inform all the disciples of the martial arts hall to ask for a great rope in the whole city, and they will definitely find out this despicable and evil person for me!"

How was Shi Long angry, and how did the disciples of the Shi Long Martial Arts Pavilion say that they were searching for the gray-clothed middle-aged man and did not mention it for the time being.

At this time, the middle-aged man in gray had already escaped from Yangzhou City with a wonderful light skill, and fled into a dense forest under the cover of night. White skin, a pair of dazzling black eyes that seem to be able to see through the past and present lives, with a solemn and ruthless color. The bridge of the nose is straight, the lips are scarlet, and when you laugh, if the feathers fall, it is as sweet as sugar, and when it is silent, it is as cold as ice. The contours of the side face are like a knife, sharp and angular, but not soft. If there is a high-quality official of the Great Sui here, I am afraid that I will be surprised when I see this face, because this face is actually quite similar to today's Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty.

Finding the package that had long been buried under a boulder, the young man took off his gray short clothes, put on a white Confucian robe, tied a white turban, lightly traced a few strokes between his eyebrows, took out a bone jade folding fan, and matched his waist with a luxurious long sword inlaid with gold and jade, and immediately a graceful and elegant son of the turbidity appeared under the moonlight. At this moment, even if Shi Long is in person, he will definitely not be able to connect this beautiful son with the mediocre middle-aged man who sneaked up on him, and the gap between the two is simply one in heaven and one in the earth.

In this world, he has a name that many people know, the descendant of the Demon Gate Mending Heaven Pavilion, the first disciple of the evil king Shi Zhixuan, the lackey of Yang Guang, the world-famous killer, and the shadow assassin Yang Xuyan.

Changed into this child's clothes, Yang Xuyan walked back to the official road, and walked towards Yangzhou City unhurriedly.

At this time, Yangzhou City was already a little chaotic, the disciples of the Shilong Martial Arts Pavilion poured out, searched everywhere, walking on the streets, Liu Jian could see many disciples of the Shilong Martial Arts Pavilion in groups with sharp eyes scanning the passers-by one by one, once they met the more treacherous, they immediately went up to interrogate and search.

However, no one came to interrogate Yang Xuyan, one is because Yang Xuyan's appearance at this time is completely different from when he was stabbing the stone dragon, and the other is that his decoration, whether it is the clothes on his body, the folding fan in his hand, and the sword on his waist, revealing extraordinary extravagance everywhere. In the eyes of ordinary people, they can't figure out which prince and grandson it is, no matter how strong Shilong is, no matter how powerful Shilong Martial Arts Hall is, it is just a force on the rivers and lakes, where do you dare to provoke such a person who is not rich or noble?

In this way, after Yang Xuyan stabbed Shi Long and took away the secret of immortality, he easily returned to Yangzhou City under the noses of the disciples of the Shilong Martial Arts Pavilion and entered an inn.
