It was already the third year that the Thorn Country of the Lin Star Continent had been invaded by its neighbor Zheguo, and the white waves were rolling and smashing against the rocks on the seashore of the Thorn Country's Dongshan City, and in the distance, it seemed that the choppy waves from the Zheguo across the sea were accumulating bloody roars. It was already late at night, and Hu Erma, who had followed the Zheguo army to the Thorn Country to engage in the medicinal herb business, was sitting comfortably in a rocking chair, looking out the window at the sea, and his thoughts drifted to Zheguo's family on the other side of the sea.

"What secrets are hidden in this Tripitaka of Lu Tingwen, I have studied it for more than ten days, but this is just a very ordinary scripture, why does the head of the family have to get it?" Hu Erma muttered to himself, then stood up, walked to the desk, took out a delicate wooden box from the bookcase, opened it gently, picked up a yellowed book that was not very thick, and looked through it carefully, his eyes were full of doubts.

The Tripitaka is one of the very ancient Buddhist scriptures in the country of Thorns, telling the subtle words of the monks of the Great Tibet, although the words are obscure, but it is not a rare thing, not only popular in the country of Thorns, and even in the country of Zhe there are many, Hu Erma has seen the Tripitaka in the country of philosophy than in his hand is more ancient than this one.

"The head of the family worked hard to find out the whereabouts of Lu Tingwen, and asked me to bribe the Zheguo army to get this Tripitaka from the Lu family, it seems that this book is not simple" Hu Erma gently put the Tripitaka into the wooden box, and lowered his head to put the wooden box into the bookcase.

Suddenly there was a rope outside the window, and then a shadow came down the rope, and this shadow jumped into the room from the open window, and went straight to Hu Erma, and when Hu Erma reacted, he was already tightly covered by a big hand in his mouth, and a dagger with a faint blue light was on his neck.

"Shopkeeper Hu, don't act rashly, and don't shout, otherwise my knife is very sharp. A deep voice sounded in Hu Erma's ears.

Hu Erma looked at the person around him in horror, this was a young man, thin and sturdy, with a cold grimness on his face. The young man quickly took out the rope from his clothes and tied Hu Erma strongly.

"Why can't you get along with the Lu family?" the young man asked coldly, and the hand covering Hu Erma's mouth moved.

"No, it was the Lu family who refused to pay the special military expenses of Zheguo, so the soldiers of Zheguo copied the Lu family" Hu Erma hurriedly cleared himself.

"Nonsense, Lu Tingwen has already paid the special military expenses, I asked Captain Zuo in particular, and he said that you are interested in the Lu family" The young man retorted unhurriedly. "You speak the Chinese language very well, you can hardly hear the tone of Zheguo, it seems that you have been preparing for a long time to come to the Assassin Country. ”

"I like to speak the language of your country, and I have spent a lot of time correcting and practicing my pronunciation and intonation, because I have to trade medicinal herbs in your country."

"Don't make excuses, Lu Tingwen is a teaching gentleman, and he has nothing to do with your medicinal herb business, you damn philosophers, you went to our assassination country to burn and loot, even an honest teaching gentleman will not let go. Your Captain Zuo sued me that you took a lot of things from the Lu family, and then asked Captain Zuo to kill the entire Lu family, you are also vicious enough. ”

Hu Erma didn't dare to face this young man, he scolded Captain Zuo in his heart, "His grandmother's, Captain Zuo is too bastard, I gave you so much gold and didn't stop you, and actually sold me to this assassin."

Although Hu Erma was ruthless in his heart, he didn't dare to squeak on his lips.

"Say why you're doing this, maybe I'll consider leaving you a dog's life," the young man continued to say with a blank face.

"He opened a school and didn't let your children from the Assassin Kingdom go to our Zheguo Academy, so I wanted to kill him" Hu Erma had no choice but to make up a reason.

"It seems that you have come to our country to stab a lot of activities, not only to rob our business, but also to be responsible for the education of children, you think you are the royal family of Zheguo, or the prime minister of Zheguo, it seems that if you don't give you some color, you will not tell the truth" The young man suddenly took out a ball of rags and stuffed it into Hu Erma's mouth, and then raised the dagger in his hand and stabbed it towards Hu Erma's thigh. Hu Erma immediately felt a chill in his thighs, followed by a piercing pain, Hu Erma twisted his body, muttered indistinctly in his mouth, and his face turned pale.

Hu Erma was a little resentful that he didn't follow the family to practice martial arts well, the Zheguo Hu family is also not a small family, many children practice martial arts, and although Hu Erma has also practiced some moves, but he is resistant to these reckless fights in his heart, he always thinks that wisdom comes first, just like this time to snatch the Tripitaka of Lu Tingwen, he doesn't need to do it himself at all, just need to take out some gold to Captain Zuo of the gendarmerie, and the problem will be solved. He was so worried that he didn't expect to encounter assassins in his own home.

"Don't you say it?" the young man seemed to be accustomed to the constant flow of blood, and his tone did not fluctuate in the slightest.

Hu Erma suddenly felt a cold sweat running down his body, and his intuition told him that the young man in front of him was as simple as drinking water. He looked at the young man with pitiful eyes. The young man removed the rags from his mouth.

"I heard that the Lu family has an ancestral treasure jade, I bought it from him, but he didn't sell it to me, so I found Captain Zuo and asked him to grab it" Hu Erma didn't even say anything to beg for mercy, and directly stated the reason.

"Hehe, you're very dishonest, it seems that what you robbed is not just this Baoyu, but there are other things, it seems that Baoyu is just a disguise. The young man's tone was a little mocking.

Hu Erma's heart sank, and it seemed that Captain Zuo had said a lot to this young man. He didn't want to say any more.

The young man looked at Hu Erma, his gaze was like a dagger passing through, and Hu Erma had already felt the breath of death.

"Don't kill me, I said, our Hu family asked me to take a Tripitaka from the Lu family, it is in a wooden box in the bookcase, as for why I need this Tripitaka, I don't know the reason. I know it, I have said it, I beg you, don't kill me, I have a lot of gold, give it all to you. Hu Erma begged for mercy incoherently.

"Since you took the things, why did you still kill the entire Lu family?" the young man's eyes spewed out sparks of anger.

"The head of the family ordered me to take away the Tripitaka and kill the entire Lu family, I just acted as ordered, and I didn't kill anyone, I was the one killed by Captain Zuo."

"A bunch of brutes!" the young man spat at Hu Erma, raised his hand suddenly, and the dagger slid towards Hu Erma's neck like lightning. Hu Erma felt light, but there was no pain, his eyes and consciousness were blurred, and soon, blood shot out like an arrow. The young man didn't care about the splattering of blood, spun the blade, cut off Hu Erma's head, and threw it into the burden behind his back.

The young man stood up, came to the desk, opened the bookcase, found the wooden box containing the Tripitaka, opened the wooden box, touched the Tripitaka, and then wrapped the wooden box in waterproof material and put it in his arms.

The young man searched carefully, found some gold nuggets and jade, listened to the movement outside, grabbed the rope from which he had come from the window, and quickly climbed along the rope to the roof.

This is a three-story building, the study is on the third floor, the young man is lying on the roof, put away the rope, this is the third time he has come to this roof, and finally found an opportunity tonight to kill Hu Erma.

The young man slowly climbed to the thick storm pipe, hugged the storm pipe with both hands and feet, and soon slid to the ground.

He lay on the ground, palms pressed to the ground, listening carefully to the movements around him, waiting for the sound of the night guard passing by. After a while, the two men walked slowly, looked around like puppets, and then turned and walked into the distance.

The young man was already familiar with this, and he looked at the figures of the two night guards departing twenty meters in front of him, and he slowly crawled towards the courtyard wall near the sea. He climbed to the heel of the wall, threw the climbing rope, climbed over the wall like a tanuki, and when he landed, he quickly rushed to the sea, and then his figure completely disappeared into the night and the sea.

The morning sun shone on a small gray island, and the young man knelt beside a small grave, with the bloody head of Hu Erma in front of him.

"Grandpa Lu, I, Ruan Jingtian, have finally avenged you today, and you can leave with peace of mind."

This young man's name is Ruan Jingtian, he once studied in Lu Tingwen's school when he was a child, he was deeply respected by Lu Lao, and later was recommended by Lu Lao to study in Manguo, therefore, Ruan Jingtian regarded Lu Lao as a reborn parent. This time, when he heard that Lu Lao's whole family was killed, he inquired in many ways and learned the culprit of Lu Lao's murder, and then after careful planning and patient waiting, he finally raised his hand to kill Hu Erma.

Ruan Jingtian took out the wooden box wrapped in waterproof material from his arms, opened it, took out the Tripitaka, and looked at it carefully.

Now that Grandpa Lu's entire family has been killed, and there is no way to find the answer from Grandpa Lu, it seems that the Hu family of Zheguo may know the secret of this Tripitaka. Ruan Jingtian flipped through the Tripitaka page by page.

Ruan Jingtian studied in the distant country of Manguo in his early years, majoring in physics, the country of Manguo is an advanced developed country in the Linxing Continent, and is ahead of other countries in various fields, although Ruan Jingtian does not study scriptures, but there are many scriptures in the country of Man, Ruan Jingtian also turned over some scriptures in his spare time, so he is no stranger to the Tripitaka, he looked at it, and did not find anything abnormal. Ruan Jingtian looked for a mezzanine again, but after fiddling for a long time, he still found nothing.

At this moment, a dark cloud suddenly rolled through the sky, and the previous rays of sunlight had been completely obscured, and a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and streaked across the entire sky. Ruan Jingtian hurriedly put away Hu Erma's head and scriptures, and hurriedly got up and ran towards a cave in the distance.

After a while, the raindrops of beans fell and hit Ruan Jingtian's body. The island consisted only of a few low bushes, and by the time Ruan Jingtian ran to the cave where he was temporarily sheltered, he was already drenched in rain. The island was small in size, had no name, and was uninhabited, but Nguyen Ching Tien occasionally swam to the island from the shore to escape the Zheguo Yankees, so this island was his temporary refuge.

Ruan Jingtian took off his soaked clothes and put down Hu Erma's head, and suddenly he found that the Tripitaka was dyed red. He thought about it for a moment, and realized that after the rain had soaked the bloody skull, it had soaked the blood into the Tripitaka. He was a little annoyed, and hurriedly took out the Tripitaka Sutra to check the damage to Cheng Dù.
