Relating Yearning with Sword - C54
Through the long window and the moonlight that sprinkled onto the courtyard, although the White Elder had lowered his head and had one eye open, he could clearly see everything about the person who had come. Gradually, this person had arrived before his eyes.
Through his subtle senses, Elder Bai had already seen through the other party clearly. He then closed his one open eye, no longer looking at it.
The tall and thin leader had his back slightly arched and was wearing a moon-white robe that was not short at all. This face looked very familiar. Then, he saw a pair of black and white eyeballs along with a long scar on his face. Hehe! Wasn’t it exactly the subordinate under the golden chicken that was trembling with money?
Qian Tian shook his head and looked around before walking to the front of the hall.
Since the window was open, the hall was lit. Elder Bai’s sleepless look was seen in Qian’s eyes.
Qian Tianyu was obviously shocked.
It was as if he did not expect that in the huge hall, there was only an old and useless Daoist who was napping.
Qian Tian trembled for a moment, and after a moment of hesitation, a look of joy appeared on his green, fleshless face.
Qian Tianyu had been ordered to do a “secret” task. He had thought that the nine heroes of the gang would be unable to protect him from the wind. He had even muttered incessantly in his heart. However, he couldn’t not come to the matter that his mistress had instructed him. Now that he saw the other party’s situation, his heart was truly at ease.
The entire courtyard was so quiet that not a single sound could be heard. Occasionally, a breeze would blow by, dragging the dried orange leaves and making a rustling sound on the ground.
How could Qian Tianyu take this unassuming old Daoist in his eyes? His body continuously flew up and down, covering all the way to the window.
The old Taoist was still dozing under the lamp.
Qian Tian inwardly sneered. He thought to himself, “Old thing, it’s better for you to sleep obediently. If you open your eyes, I will take your life.”
Qian Tian shook his head as he calculated in his mind. He raised his right hand and gently touched the windowsill. Four fingers exerted force and with a “hu” sound, he leaped up. While he was rising and falling, he was like a giant eagle spreading its wings, already floating within the hall.
It was only then that Qian Tian saw clearly that this old Taoist who was also a member of the Beggar Gang was actually this old. Since you’re sleeping, I might as well let you sleep comfortably.
Qian Tian’s body trembled as he leapt forward. This time, he was as fast as a falcon. “Phew …” He arrived in front of Elder Bai and raised his right hand. He then retracted his five fingers and landed on Elder Bai’s back, which seemed to be ignorant, like a chicken pecking at its head.
“Pfft!” He answered with a “yes”.
This place was the place where the two energies of the human body intersected. It was also known as the ‘Stunning Acupuncture Point’. Although it didn’t sound painful, it was based on the strength of the person who attacked.
Qian Tianyu didn’t have any deep grudges with him, he just wanted Han Li to sleep obediently without moving, so he didn’t use his full strength. Under his five fingers, he only felt that Han Li’s body felt extremely weak.
Qian Tian’s heart skipped a beat when his fingers came in contact with a bullet-like blade. He saw the old Daoist’s body slant and fall unconscious on the chair.
Qian Tianyu was relieved to see this.
He no longer paid any attention to this old man, and his pair of eyes that flickered with a bright light constantly moved about the hall.
This side chamber was only used as a temporary pill room. All that was placed in the surroundings were just bottles and jars. Zhu Tian Dou was actually interested in these trivial things.
Qian Tian trembled as he tiptoed over to the bottles and rummaged through them. After searching for a while, he felt a little confused. At this moment, he suddenly felt something cold in his left ear, as if someone was blowing on his face.
Qian Tianyu couldn’t help but feel scared as he quickly turned his face away.
He didn’t see anything, yet it was as if there was a huge object floating over his head when he tilted his head. At the same time, his right face was touched.
Qian Tian trembled. “Hey!” With a cry, he swung his palm and struck. Simultaneously, he rose up and folded himself seven to eight feet away. After allowing him to stand still, he realized that there was nothing in front of him. He had been poor all day and hadn’t seen a single ghost.
The old Daoist man on the other side of the chair, who had lost his consciousness, was still the same as before. He was leaning forward on the chair, sleeping soundly.
Qian Tianyu was dumbfounded.
Then he looked at the blue light on the long table. It was crackling with sparks, clearly frightened by the wind. This proved that someone had actually been here before.
Qian Tian had been following the golden chicken ever since it was born. Because of the latter’s great power in the martial arts world, he had been invincible, but he had never expected that it would be so humiliating these days. Especially after the battle at the Bai Clan, he had almost lost his life at the hands of Wu Yuxue.
After being injured in a row, Qian Tian had lost all his spirit. This time, he had come on orders and thought that the opposite party was a defeated soldier. Who else could possibly be capable of this? However, he didn’t expect that he would still be so weird. After his past experiences, he didn’t dare to use force anymore. It was still the 36th step, ‘leaving’ was the best strategy.
With another thought, he realized that his master couldn’t return empty-handed if she wanted to give him an explanation. At the very least, he would have to fish for a few of the items and return to pay for the errands.
As he thought of this, he took out a silk handkerchief from his robes, unfolded it, laid it flat on the ground, and looked around with his white fruit eyes.
There was also a porcelain horse on the other side.
Qian Tian rushed forward and took the horse in his hand.
When he came back and wrapped the horse in his bundle, something incredible happened.
The bundle was gone.
He clearly remembered that the package was left on the ground just now, but it had disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The old Daoist was still unconscious after having his acupoints pierced. He was even in the same sleeping posture as before.
Qian Tian trembled with fear in his heart. When he looked up, he realized, “Heh!” It was hanging on the beam. The package that was still swinging back and forth had disappeared just as it was hanging up.
Qian Tian Han couldn’t help but gasp. Needless to say, a capable person had arrived. With only a single turn of the body, the person was able to walk in and out easily. Not only that, he was also able to tie his bag to the beam, making him deaf.
Anxious, he put down the horse in his hand and jumped out of the window. Looking around, he found that the moon was high and clear, without any trace. He went back again and even the bag of horses was gone.
The bundle was gone, but the piece of silk was spread out on the ground. The bottles and jars inside the bag were gone. When he looked again, the original items had returned to their original positions.
Qian Tian only felt a chill go down his spine for a while.
Needless to say, he was fooled. This man’s skill was unfathomable. He seemed to be kind to him, or else with his skills, if he wanted to take his life, eight lives would be over.
What will happen?
Let’s go back empty-handed. How can we explain it when we go back?
If he didn’t leave now, what face did he have to stay here any longer?
He turned around and saw the white-haired old Daoist lying on the chair. He did not know what was going on and was still in a deep slumber.
His heart stirred. Could it be that this old thing is making a fool of himself? However, when he thought about it again, he realized that it was not right. The other party had clearly already opened his acupoints. Could it be that he could open his own acupoints?
As far as he knew, there were some extraordinary people in the martial arts world who could use their Qi and blood to open their acupoints. It was just like how their master, Goldchicken, was too old for Long Jiang to believe that this ordinary old Daoist in front of him could also have this ability.
Since he had the ability to do so, he might as well try it on him.
Qian Tian gave a cold laugh and pulled out a half cow-eared sharp knife from his calf. His pair of black and white eyes were filled with a murderous intent.
“Old man, you are pretending to be crazy. I don’t believe you.”
He tapped on the ground with his foot and a “sou” sound rang out. He had already jumped in front of the Daoist man’s seat. Reaching out with his right hand, he grabbed the Daoist man’s clothes at the back of his neck and lifted him up like a rabbit.
It was because it was too convenient that Qian Tianyu dispelled his previous killing move. With his doubts gone, he sneered and threw the old Daoist back at him. “Peng!” The old Daoist was thrown onto a chair.
Due to the excessive force, a large gust of wind caused the lamp on the long table to be extinguished in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, the entire room turned pitch black.
In that instant, Qian Tian only felt a tightening sensation on his back as his clothes and flesh were grabbed by someone. This situation was somewhat similar to when he had used this technique on Elder Bai, except that the technique was slightly different.
Qian Tian’s heart skipped a beat as the sharp blade in his left hand pierced backwards.
His blade was fast, but his opponent’s technique was even faster.
The blade was extended halfway, and an immense force was exerted in the opponent’s hand. As the force spread outwards, Qian Tian was sent flying.
The strength of this strike was unexpectedly strong. Qian Tian’s body trembled as he was thrown five to six Zhang away. With a plop, he fell to the ground.
Qian Tian finally became nimble. As he fell down, he rolled over and jumped out. Although he didn’t break any bones, he was still shocked. He then accidentally stabbed the knife in his hand into his stomach. The wound was no longer stable, but it still caused him to tremble in pain.
What was infuriating was that after a series of insults, he was finally thrown out. He didn’t even know what the other person looked like, which was quite embarrassing.
This way, he naturally couldn’t stay any longer.
In the darkness, a man leaned against a stone, gnashing his teeth in hatred for a while.
Needless to say, this person in the dark was probably involved with him.
It was a pity that he had lost so far in this pantomime. To be more accurate, the other party had still shown mercy. Otherwise, his life would have ended long ago and he would have died just like that.
Let’s go!
At the peak of the barren mountain stood the castle city, which stretched for hundreds of zhang. It was obviously abandoned now.
It was said that this was the base of the elite fighting against elites when Li Tinzhi, the soldier and horse master of the previous dynasty, was ordered to assist Xiangfan. It was also said that this was the base of the elite fighting elites.
Who would want to come here?
Could it be the person with the unique map and the unfathomable fantasy, the so-called “The eagle roams the world, the tiger roars everywhere”? There were still people who were capable of such weird things in their lives.
With the exception of the long corridor, there was a huge wind blowing, causing the man in the simple robe to look forward. However, when he saw Bai Yunhai and his raging emotions, how could he not act in this manner? “I’ve thought it through, it’s not worth a smile, I can’t understand the burning blood in my veins, this time, I can’t taste it …”
On the stone table, Scabbers’ twenty-four palms couldn’t fully vent the anger in his chest.
A long whistle resounded throughout the earth, but it was still me alone.
What can I do, what can I do, ask the heavens and ask the earth? What do I want?
His heart was higher than the heavens. How could he suppress a tiger with such a strong ability? How could he forbid it? He felt nothing but sorrow.
If ‘killing’ was just a show of strength, could he do it? If he were to stand up and express his ambition, why would he care so much about the flow of blood and the surging of his bones?
At this very moment, he really did hate the ancients for not seeing him, hating the ancients for not seeing him. “A second and third son who knows me well.”
“That’s not right, that’s not right …”
The man shook his head drunkenly. His tongue had indeed grown bigger. “Those are Xin Jiaxuan’s words. They don’t belong to me …” “There isn’t a single person who knows about me. There isn’t a single person who knows about me …”
Thus, he bent his waist with a drunken demeanor, and imprinted the 25th palm mark on the Ancient Blue Stone Table.
It was a very skillful move — under his palm, but the stone crumbs seemed to have rotted, rising and falling in clusters from between his fingers. At first glance, they looked like diluted noodles, which turned to dust as soon as the breeze blew.
Such great skill.
How many people in this world could recognize this true skill?
“How many?”
He picked up the wine jar and drank a few mouthfuls. The wind had drawn the blood, and the wine was getting more and more excited.
The man held up a finger to let the power gather inside, it was stronger than steel, it was his unparalleled “One Breath Heaven Breaking” finger power, according to Shi Li book, “Twenty-five palm prints, the same type of power. I have the power to shake the sky and the earth, and I dare to praise the number one person in the Divine State.”
As the alcohol gushed out, he puked and then wrote, “A great man is like a tiger that rules the world. Those who follow the rules will die, while those who defy the rules will die.”
The last few words held true, but they weren’t written yet, so he continued to write: “I sing and I laugh, I hate my anger.”
The wine was in high spirits, and “puffed out a big mouthful of wine, but just like the falling stars and the falling rocks, he had truly combined his internal and external powers into one. No wonder he became even more crazy, but after some thought, he decided to stop it.” Tomorrow is the end of the world, and the dynasty will be in ruins, the year, month, and the day, the golden pheasant. “
