Chapter 22: Slaying Demons
After Xue Chen got rid of the chasing soldiers of Haitian City and his party, he traveled all the way north in the direction of Shimen, and most of the injuries he suffered were skin injuries, which had basically healed in the past few days of the northward journey.
There are many chambers of commerce in Haitian City, and business is frequent, so there will be merchants who come to trade some rare treasures every day, so even though they are more than ten miles out of the city, Xue Chen can still see many caravans leading camels and riding horses, rushing towards the city.
Xue Chen was afraid that there would be entanglement of the pursuers, so he didn't go all the way, he was very careful, and all the food and clothing were solved in the forest.
In the night, Xue Chen took a few sips of sake, and sat cross-legged on the bed practicing the two sets of mental methods he had learned, and then suddenly heard a few sounds from the sparse outside the inn.
Xue Chen collected his work and pondered: "The ugly hour has just passed, these three people don't stay in the room, there must be some premeditation sneakily, plus the walking pace is light and steady, they must be people in the same way, I will follow and see what kind of medicine they sell in the gourd." ”
After that, he put away his breath, looked for the sound, and followed.
Xue Chen's breath was hidden all the way, only to feel that the three people in front of him were becoming more and more suspicious, for fear of startling the snake, so he cautiously followed the three to a forest.
After the three of them walked a few hundred meters in the forest, they stopped, and the leader blew a whistle lightly, and suddenly heard the sound of birds and beasts flapping their wings and cooing, followed by the sound of spreading their wings.
One of them said, "Big brother, we just passed on a letter, as for running here to do this work?"
The leader replied: "What do you know, I sensed that there are other monks in the inn besides us, in order not to harm the lord's affairs, it is better to be on the safe side." ”
Another person asked, "Then big brother, are we still robbing these vendors tonight?"
The man replied, "Needless to say, just wait for the man to sleep, and then we will quietly kill these vendors, take the property, and then go to Haitian City to be happy." ”
After that, one of them laughed and said: "Big brother, you said that the Venerable Lord sent so many of us to scatter everywhere, saying that we were looking for some kind of Holy Venerable Mausoleum, but we have been looking for so long, and we haven't seen a single mausoleum, when will this errand be a head." ”
After hearing this, the man reprimanded softly: "Your kid is not living so happily every day because of this errand, he doesn't know how to be content at all, and he doesn't talk about this, let's go back and see if the man is asleep, and then we can do it." ”
Xue Chen hid behind a tree, heard all the conversations of the three of them clearly, was indignant in his heart, and thought: "Nine times out of ten, these three people are the Heavenly Thieves of the Nine Domains, and no matter what Saint Venerable Mausoleum you are, I will eliminate harm for the people tonight." ”
Suddenly, seeing that the three of them were leaving, Xue Chen immediately raised his sword and chased them out.
When the three of them heard the sound, they stopped their steps and were vigilant, and they all said, "Who is it?"
In the night, Xue Chen was silent, and he had already killed one person when he used the magic trick, and the black soldier directly stabbed into the opponent's body, killing one person in a blink of an eye, and then the sword move turned to take the life of another person.
Although the leader of the man said that his cultivation was quite high, but because of Xue Chen's sudden attack, he didn't react for a while, and he died in the blink of an eye, and he was furious in his heart, and while his luck hit the back of Xue Chen's sword, he scolded: "The thief is so shameless, I want your life today." ”
Xue Chen was shocked by the man like this, and the tiger's mouth was in severe pain, and the black soldier didn't hold it tightly for a while, and he had already taken it out of his hand and inserted it in the cedar tree on the side.
Xue Chen was not too proficient in the sword style, but now that the black soldier got out of his hands, he was liberated for a while, and immediately deceived another man, his body was like a ghost, and his Xuan Xuan finger pointed directly at the man's forehead.
Before the man could make a move, he collapsed to the ground, lifeless.
The man in black saw that his two attackers were killed in an instant, and the three corpse gods were even more angry, and shouted: "Little thief, I will never die with you." ”
As soon as the words fell, he had already appeared in front of Xue Chen, with a black light in his hand, and his right hand was like a thorn in the sky, piercing Xue Chen's chest.
Xue Chen was shocked, his body hurriedly pushed back, retreated sharply, and shouted, "Zhutian Thorn, how can you do it?"
At the same time, he was irritable in his heart, lost his mind for a while, and said to himself anxiously: "Jinxuan, Jinxuan, what is the heart method you gave me? ”
In a moment of distraction, the man in black deceived forward again, Xue Chen was not in a hurry to dodge for a while, and there were already many colors hanging on his body, and blood flowed.
The man's cultivation is not low, and Xue Chen's mind is lost at this time, and he only says that he has learned things that he shouldn't learn, and he only feels that he is deviant and shameless for a while.
After a few back and forth, Xue Chen's left shoulder already had an extra hole, although the wound was not deep, there were still bursts of severe pain, which stimulated Xue Chen, and he couldn't help but come back to his senses, and he was furious in his heart, shouting: "Look for death." ”
The vitality in the body rushed wildly, converging on the left hand, and for a moment the temperature in the forest rose sharply, burning pieces of dead leaves.
The purple light is sheng, illuminating the entire cedar forest, even from a hundred zhang away, you can clearly see this bright light and feel the cold murderous aura in it.
Seeing this, the man's face was like ashes, and his outstretched right hand had no time to retract, and the moment the two of them slammed their hands together, a heart-wrenching scream sounded, and the man's hand was like dead wood, and was smashed into minced meat by Xue Chen.
The man in black's whole body kept trembling, retreated, and quickly knelt on the ground, trembling, shouting, "Little... The villain has no eyes, and he doesn't know that the adult is coming, so he digs himself up and begs the adult to spare his life. ”
After that, he had already dug out his left eyeball, put it in the palm of his hand, and presented it.
Xue Chen was puzzled, but he didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly asked: "How can you also do this mental method, say it quickly, otherwise it will kill you." ”
When the man heard this, his body trembled even more, and he asked, "Nine Domains Holy Heaven." ”
Xue Chen was puzzled in his heart, only to feel that the clouds were in the fog, and said angrily: "What Nine Domains Holy Heaven, I ask you!"
When the man heard this, he was suddenly furious, excited for a while, coughing constantly, and kept bleeding blood, which was hideous, and reprimanded: "Bastard boy, you are not from the Nine Domains. ”
After speaking, he laughed angrily, with a shrill laugh, and said: "I don't care how you learned this mental method, I think you seem to be a person in the spiritual world, and now you are secretly learning the mental method of the demon sect that you said, I see how you explain to the master and the world, and the so-called famous and decent people are nothing more than that." ”
After that, he suddenly laughed again, and then spit out a mouthful of blood, and collapsed to the ground in exhaustion.
Xue Chen heard the words of the man in black, only to feel a pain in his chest, like a sharp knife, piercing his heart fiercely, his mind was already blank, and he kept thinking: "What have I done." ”
When he said that he was anxious, he shouted angrily: "I hate the demon sect thief the most in my life, and now I secretly learn his sect's mental method, what am I." ”
As soon as the words fell, the qi and blood rolled into his brain, and he fainted for a while.
Thanks to the fact that there are many people walking around in the forest during the day, there are few wolves and beasts at night, and at night, there are few human tracks, only the evening breeze blows, the dead leaves are sparse, and there is no other sound.
After Xue Chen woke up, it was already the fifth watch, and the hazy white mist was floating around, wetting most of Xue Chen's clothes.
Xue Chen didn't have a mental idea, and when he woke up, he just hoped that all this was just a hanging dream, but when he saw the three corpses beside him, his heart was full of pain.
The endless anxiety in his heart tormented him, and Xue Chen muttered softly: "How can I learn the heart of a thief." ”
The louder he spoke, the louder he spoke, and when he got later, he roared angrily: "I taught my master carefully in vain, and I became a disciple of Xuantian in vain, why do I want this body to cultivate?"
After that, he raised his right hand and sealed all the key points in his own place, and he wanted to cut off his tendons and veins, and self-abolished his cultivation.
It's just that at this time, an old man's laughter sounded in the forest, and the person who came laughed and said: "Things turn with your heart, the environment is created by the heart, and the troubles are born from the heart. ”
When Xue Chen heard this, he was immediately enlightened, and hurriedly said to the figure in the mist: "I still hope that my seniors will give advice." ”
The idea of self-abandonment and cultivation was put aside for a while.
