Chapter 4: The assassination of Xiuzhu

That night, Lin Xiuzhu hurriedly went down the mountain, bought two dairy sheep from the sheep farmer, and hurried back to the palace. She has built a successful foundation, only a moment of effort to go down the mountain, this up the mountain, can't help but face a bitter, she can do light work alone, and now there are two milk-producing sheep, do you want her delicate woman, carrying two sheep to run?

So on the stone steps that could not be seen at a glance, a beautiful scenery appeared. I saw a beautiful woman leading two sheep, or dragging, or whipping, poor two beasts have never walked such a high and long staircase in their lives, no matter how the woman urges, still slowly, step by step, three times back......

was so angry that the woman's face turned red, but there was nothing she could do.

After walking for an hour, Lin Xiuzhu, who was driving sheep, was so tired that he was out of breath, most likely out of breath. She tied the sheep to the stone pillar of the pavilion on the mountainside and sat cross-legged with the intention of resting for a while.

She rested for a moment, then stood up and was about to untie the hemp rope tied to the stone pillar. Suddenly, there was a sound of a foreign object breaking the air behind her, Lin Xiuzhu didn't look back, she quickly reached out to her waist and pulled it out, a soft sword in her hand, she waved her hand behind her, only to hear a few clanging sounds, and the sneak attack had been blocked by her.

Lin Xiuzhu turned around and saw three plum blossom darts on the ground, faintly glowing with purple light in the moonlight, this secret weapon was actually quenched poison!

At that moment, she couldn't help but be angry, on this Qimei Mountain, she actually broke into outsiders, and dared to do it on the mountainside, which shows that the other party has no fear.

The person who secretly attacked her secretly sent a secret weapon, I didn't expect her to be so skilled, and I couldn't help but cry out in my heart that it was a pity.

Lin Xiuzhu raised his eyebrows and shouted coldly: [He Fang, break into my Qimei Mountain, have the courage to come out and see it!]

Before he finished speaking, two men in black jumped out of the dark forest, the two men in black, one tall and one short, short and fat, tall and thin.

At that moment, the two of them blocked the mountain road, and the short and fat man with his face covered said angrily: [Bah...... Okay, you're a skinny monkey, who let you put a hidden weapon, if you kill this little beauty, Lao Tzu wants you to look good!]

The thin man smiled sadly: [Hehe, it's a pity that this little girl reacted too quickly, otherwise she would have been touched by my unique plum blossom dart, hehe...... I can take it back tonight and be the lady of the village. Although he covered his face and couldn't see clearly, he could guess that the thin man was a hungry ghost by listening to the evil tone of his voice and the eyes that were looking up and down the body of Xiuzhu.

The fat man was stunned when he heard this, he looked at the iron dart on the ground, and was immediately furious: [Good guy, there are such inferior people, who actually put spring poison on the secret weapon. ]

The thin man said unhappily: [I want someone, you want something from her, what?

Lin Xiuzhu listened to the foul language and nonsense of the two of them, and suddenly turned pale with anger, daring to love these two thieves to rob money and sex. It's good that they came to the doorstep, but what is there on them that is worth the risk of the two of them?

The two men in black stood in the way of the mountain, chattering with each other, and they were about to fight if they disagreed.

She shouted angrily, and danced the soft sword in her hand to attack the two black-clothed people, only to see that the silver-white soft sword was as fast as a swimming dragon, turning into two, and stabbing at the door in the blink of an eye, it was the middle-grade sword trick splitting sword in the Qimei Palace.

The thin man on the left screamed, his hands fell, and his weapon was revealed, which was a pair of soul snatching hooks, he took the oncoming sword light, and found that this sword light could turn into two, and two into four.

The short and fat man was also startled, he rolled on the spot, dodged the sword light above his head, and actually took advantage of the momentum to crash into Lin Xiuzhu's arms.

Unexpectedly, this woman is known as a once-in-a-century cultivation genius in Qimei Palace, not in name only. She saw the fat man rolling on the spot, his feet were a little, his delicate body was twisted in mid-air, a swallow threw into the forest, and the soft sword in his right hand borrowed a little from the ground, and the tip of the sword picked up the three plum blossom darts on the ground and shot forward.

This change of move was too fast, and the tumbling fat man couldn't be caught off guard, and three poison darts hit him on the buttocks.

[Ouch hey...... The fat man screamed in pain, the rolling momentum stopped suddenly, and his palms slapped on the spot, and he rolled back again.

The tall and thin man was also hung with color, and his clothes were cut a few times by the soft sword, he finally took the sword light, and his heart was shocked, he didn't expect this delicate beauty, one-handed swordsmanship was so superb, faintly there was a realm of sword light and psychic!

Fear arises, and retreat arises. At this time, the fat man was wailing and rolling all the way, and he hurriedly waved out a hidden weapon in one hand, helped the fat man up, and the two hurriedly went into the darkness.

Lin Xiuzhu just made a sword in the air, borrowed the hidden weapon on the ground and injured the fat man, and was about to land forward, when another hidden weapon flew in front of her, she knew that the hidden weapon was fed with spring and medicine, and she didn't dare to take it hard, her feet hit the ground, and she hurriedly took advantage of her strength to hide to the side, and when she stood firm, the two black-clothed people had already disappeared into the dark jungle and fled.

It is difficult to find the enemy in the dark, and girls are especially sensitive to this kind of vicious secret weapon. So Lin Xiuzhu could only give up. By the time he had to take the goat back to the Bamboo Palace, it was already dawn. She had the problem of food and clothing for the little meteor in her heart, so she tied up the sheep and hurried into the house.

In the hall of the Bamboo Palace, the stove is still swallowing firewood and spitting flames, and it has not been extinguished. On the side of the stove, Ayaka's little girl actually sat and fell asleep, and looking from behind, Qu Xingchen, who was holding Ayaka, didn't seem to be crying.

Lin Xiuzhu smiled slightly, relieved. It's just that when she approached and went to pick up the child, she covered her little mouth for fear of screaming. At this moment, the boy was sucking hard in front of Ayaka's half-open snow-white breasts.

............

Don't mention the embarrassment of the two sisters of the Bamboo Palace.

Early in the morning, Ayaka Takemiya reported to the main palace, and in the middle of the night, there were two black-clothed assassins making trouble. When the palace master Shangguan Qing learned of Lin Xiuzhu's assassination, Feng Yan was furious and personally led the subordinates of the main palace to patrol the mountains to find the two assassins.

The overall number of people in Qimei Palace is between two hundred, although there is a saying that there are six palaces of Qimei, but the four palaces of Meilan Zhuju are just the place where the palace master allocated them to the four flag palaces to cultivate alone. In fact, there were only three or five people in each Banner Palace, and most of the rest of the cultivation disciples were attached to the main and secondary palaces. Lin Xiuzhu loves to be quiet the most, and in her bamboo palace, there are only two people, her and Ayaka. It's just that now I have to add a chubby Qu Xingchen.

At this moment, the three characters of the Bamboo Palace are all waiting in Qin Yun's Danfang. The Dan room is poorly furnished. In the spacious Dan room, there is a screen on the left side, and a wooden collapse is placed behind the screen, which is used for patients on weekdays. In addition, there are rows of wooden shelves neatly erected against the wall in the room, and various spiritual flowers and grasses are placed on them. In front of a big mat in the middle of the Dan room, there are three Dan furnaces side by side, and the Dan furnaces are separated by a bluestone platform, and the three Dan furnaces are one green, one black, and one dark red.

The deputy palace master Qin Yun was refining the elixir, and Lin Xiuzhu and Ayaka were watching intently as if she was doing a trick, putting spiritual grass into the Dan furnace.

Originally, in the matter of alchemy, unless the disciples of the Dan Master were not allowed to be present. Before this Lin cultivated the bamboo foundation, he was a member of Qin Yun's deputy palace, and he was most in love with Qin Yun on weekdays, so there were three people from the bamboo palace who could watch this exception.

In front of the half-human-tall crimson Dan furnace, Qin Yun threw several spirit grasses into the Dan furnace one by one. At the bottom of the Dan furnace, there was no firewood and coal, only a tiny flame beating. Don't underestimate this flame. It is the supreme treasure of alchemy, and the purple qi comes from the east.

Qin Yun can be respected as a four-grade Dan master, and this flame is indispensable. Danshi alchemy, its understanding is the most important, and the flame of the Dan furnace is also indispensable. The flame of purple qi from the east originates from the place where the sun rises in the extreme east, and it is a rare spiritual thing in the world, and it cannot be obtained by those who are not destined for it.

After more than a dozen spirit grasses were heated and refined for the first time, they turned into liquid, and then this liquid essence was condensed, purified, and quenched in a unique way before it was continued to be placed in the Dan furnace and waited for the Dan to be condensed.

Qin Yun did this before turning around, looking at Lin Xiuzhu with concern, looking up and down, and did not find that Xiuzhu was injured: [Sister Xiuzhu, what is the matter with those two black-clothed people? ]

Lin Xiuzhu raised his eyebrows, and said with a little doubt: [Sister Yun, the matter of assassins is a little strange. ]

[Oh, what did my sister find?]

[Sister, you think, those two men in black are guarding my way back to the mountain, which means that they knew in advance that I would come down the mountain temporarily, and what is even stranger is that ...... ]

At this, her face turned red.

[What's even stranger is that the two men actually said they were going to rob me of my belongings.] Isn't it too risky to sneak into the mountains for these ingots of broken silver?] The man in black also wanted to rob the color, but she didn't mention it here.

Qin Yun had an expression of disbelief, she had already guessed something when she saw a red cloud floating on Xiuzhu's face just now. Because he saw that she came back intact, he wanted to tease her. Just about to open her mouth to tease her, she suddenly remembered something, and suddenly her dignified demeanor became extremely stiff, and her face was pale and her mouth opened slightly, as if she remembered something terrible.

Seeing that her face suddenly turned so pale, Lin Xiuzhu reached out and grabbed Qin Yun's palm, wrapped it between his palms and asked worriedly: [Sister, what's wrong with you?]

Qin Yun's body was sitting upright, she trembled slightly, she stretched out her hand to shake Lin Xiuzhu tightly, and whispered with a look of shock in her beautiful eyes:

[Those two thieves must have gone for the two things I gave you yesterday.] ]

When Lin Xiuzhu heard this, he exclaimed: [What, sister, do you mean ......?]

Qin Yun winked and motioned her to be careful that the wall had ears, and she said in a low voice:

[Originally, I didn't believe it, but a few days ago, the palace master came to me privately, saying that he found that among the sisters of the Banner Palace, there were people who ate inside and outside. It happened that there was a storage ring in Na Yun's hand yesterday, and the palace master wanted to take the opportunity to try it. At that time, the palace master instructed me to be quiet, to summon your four sisters in, and asked me to hand over the ring to my sister in the screen after discussing the future of Qi Yun. ]

[Now it seems that the palace master was indeed prescient.] Such a precious thing as a storage ring, the person who secretly saw that I didn't recognize it, must have beaten its mind, and sure enough, it was exposed. Sister, do you know? Just this inconspicuous ring in your hand, the news spreads, I'm afraid that tomorrow the five major sects will turn against each other, and even the corpse chasing faction will hit the mountain gate!]
