Chapter 236 Berserk(1/4)
Chapter 236 Violent
The autumn rain continued, and the whole town was dark.
Perhaps hearing the noise in the pharmacy's bathroom, the middle-aged woman rushed into the courtyard with several subordinates and weapons in hand.
Seeing that Wei Tao was fine, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and waved to others to search the surrounding area, while she quickly came up to him.
Wei Tao didn't say anything, he just waved to her and led her into the house.
"This is……"
The woman gasped when she saw the two headless corpses on the ground.
"Have you seen these two people?" Wei Tao asked.
"No, they are a bit unfamiliar. They shouldn't be from the town."
The middle-aged woman took a deep breath and tried to calm her breathing, "I disturbed Deacon Wei tonight, and I feel deeply uneasy..."
Wei Tao waved his hand and stopped her from continuing, "Whether I was disturbed or not is not a big deal.
What really needs Huang Shaoqing's attention is that they mentioned a secret message when they sneaked in. You should know what it is."
"Secret message?"
The woman thought thoughtfully, "If I don't hide it from Deacon Wei, the secret messages in these people's mouths should be the various matters of the sect's competition that have been agreed upon by the Lord Changshi here. They are preparing to let me communicate them through the Si Yamen communication channel and report them to the General Yamen in a timely manner."
Know.”
Wei Tao nodded, "Then Huang Shaoqing needs to pay attention. This should be their target."
After a pause, his voice suddenly became lower, "One more thing, something that was just agreed during the day, someone just sneaked in at night as soon as Changshi Yu left. You have to think carefully about how the news was leaked."
"Outside thieves can be defended, but internal thieves are difficult to guard against. This old saying has been passed down to this day, and it has its own truth."
Huang Shaoqing's expression changed several times and he fell into thinking.
After a moment, she raised her head suddenly, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.
"It should be him. Yesterday, this person had the opportunity to pass on the news. This person is cheating!"
"The two people who died were both Zang-level warriors."
Wei Tao waited for her to calm down, and then reminded her, "Also, they were not killed by me, but by a master of swordsmanship. He swung the sword around his neck and silently killed them. I couldn't save them even if I tried to save them.
"
"Kill two dirty masters with one sword!?"
Huang Shaoqing's expression changed again, "Thank you, Deacon Wei, for reminding me. I know what to do."
"We will evacuate this place immediately, and the deacon can leave with me."
Such a high-level warrior was beyond her ability to deal with, so she had to make a decision immediately.
And at each of the patrol bases, there are mature response plans for this situation, so that they will not be left running around like headless flies.
Wei Tao shook his head, "You don't have to worry about me. If you need my help, you can tell me clearly."
He looked at the flames that had not yet been extinguished and the steaming medicine barrels, and then said, "I might as well live here for the next few days. If anything happens again, I can find out and deal with it in time."
"This is the Si Yamen's token. If the deacon wants to contact me, he can take it to this place." Huang Shaoqing bowed deeply, turned and walked out of the room.
Suddenly, a scream came from outside.
Immediately afterwards, several more hawks and sparrows rose into the sky under the dark curtain of rain and flew quickly towards the south.
Soon after, the entire mansion returned to silence, and all the spies from the Patrol Department had evacuated.
Wei Tao extinguished the fire, closed the door, and quickly returned to the inn courtyard and called Ni Hao who was in seclusion.
"He is indeed a master with the sword."
Ni Xun leaned down and his eyes fell on the two corpses.
She listened to Wei Tao's description and carefully observed the wound on his arm that was almost healing.
After thinking silently for a moment, he slowly said, "The people you met just now may be the swordsmen of the Hidden Sword Pavilion, but they should have disappeared into history long ago."
"Hidden Sword Pavilion?" Wei Tao frowned slightly.
Ni Hao nodded slightly, "This is a martial arts sect located in the westernmost part of Mozhou. The disciples in the sect do not practice anything else but specialize in swordsmanship. What they want is the pure sword intention and sword heart that can be cut away with one sword without leaving any trace.
There were also many masters back then, and coupled with the magic weapons created by their internal sword house, they were as powerful as the seven sects of the sect."
"Later, due to the decline of the imperial power of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Zangjian Pavilion no longer obeyed orders, and even wanted to rely on the dangerous terrain of the West End to establish a separatist regime.
When Emperor Wu became the best in the world, he immediately sent out his masters to destroy him, leaving the Zangjian Pavilion with corpses everywhere and rivers of blood flowing."
Speaking of this, she sighed quietly, "This triggered the Thirteen Swordsmen to come east and fight Emperor Wu of the Great Zhou Dynasty on the outskirts of the capital.
The final result was that he was ranked number one in the world, the killing formation of the Thirteen Swordsmen was broken, and the swords were destroyed and everyone died.
Only the youngest one was left, and Emperor Wu had his limbs broken and placed him in the prison where he was tortured day and night."
"It's just that after this battle, even Emperor Wu, the most powerful person in the world, said personally that the swords in the sword pavilion were hidden in the killing formation, and the thirteen swordsmen were connected in spirit and spirit, supplemented by the secret method to connect, the qi machine sword way was superimposed, and the attack and retreat were invisible.
Especially the final form of the sword formation, where thirteen divine soldiers are combined into one, the lethality is more than that of the formation formed by ordinary warriors, and it can be regarded as one of the few killing formations in the world."
Wei Tao sighed softly, "The world is so vast, and there are as many warriors as there are crucian carp crossing the river. I never thought before that there are such powerful swordsmen who can exert such powerful fighting power with a three-foot green blade in their palms.
In the duel on a rainy night just now, I took a blow from this man, and he hit me with a punch. I can't tell who suffered the most."
Ni Xun's tone was soft and comforting, "He has taken advantage of the magic weapon and has the cover of the dark environment, otherwise it would not be so easy to hurt you."
"It's a pity that I took the Cold Jade Pill brought by Changshi Yu and stayed in the inn courtyard to absorb the medicinal power to replenish my body, so I didn't stand with you.
Otherwise, if the two of us join forces, we will definitely make this swordsman come back."

…………
………………
A figure penetrated the heavy rain curtain and sped across the wilderness.
From time to time, large balls of blood spilled from his mouth, dyeing his black clothes dark red.
Click!
Suddenly, a soft sound came from the dense forest ahead.
"It's me!"
The Xuanyi swordsman stumbled and stopped in the slippery muddy water.
Her voice was cold and indifferent, with a bit of weakness and hoarseness.
"Ye Xiao, why are you back alone? Where are those two idiots from Mobei Shuangsha?"
Suddenly, a tall and strong figure flashed out from the forest, but its movement was as dexterous as a sparrow, and it came to the swordsman in Xuanyi without a trace of wind.
"The Shuangsha of Mobei missed and was killed by my sword."
Night Owl took off his mask, revealing a pale female face.
"Even you were injured?"
The tall man's nose twitched and he smelled the strong smell of blood.
He frowned, "Your own strength has reached the level of Zang training, and you are holding a jade-cutting sword and practicing the Seven Killing Sword Styles of Dark Night. You should rarely encounter opponents due to your mysterious sense."
"Didn't it mean that Yu Heyuan has left, and there are only two or three big cats and kittens left in the patrol department station here?
Based on these people, I really can’t think of anyone who can hurt you, a high disciple of Hidden Sword Pavilion.”
Just as Night Owl was about to speak, he vomited a large amount of blood again.
She gasped for breath, her expression became increasingly depressed, and her body began to tremble violently.
"I don't know who he is. I only know that the man took action, with thousands of scarlet threads dancing wildly, and a suffocating punch. Even I couldn't completely avoid it."
"Thousands of scarlet tentacles!?"
The man's pupils suddenly shrank, and his expression changed in the darkness.
After a long time, he slowly exhaled a breath and said with some uncertainty, "Based on your description, I have reason to suspect that in addition to Yu Heyuan, an old and cunning guy, there is another regular attendant who came to Taixuan Mountain.
nearby."
"Who is that person?" Ye Xiao asked.
"One of the regular attendants of the Touring Department, the ghost hands are sad."
The man thought slowly and said, "Uncle Gui Shufang had been staying in the Pilgrimage Department before he secretly joined the sect, and it was he who discovered the secret of the mysterious silk threads during several encounters with the sect.
Guishu is an amazing and talented person who can be called a genius. After discovering the secret, he used his identity to study ancient methods and truly recreate the mysterious threads that had not been seen in the world for an unknown period of time.
After that, Guishu pretended to resign and go into seclusion. In fact, he continued his research on the mysterious silk threads under the cover of the sect and made a huge breakthrough.
It is a pity that more than 20 years ago, the identity of Qizhou Jiedu was exposed, and Uncle Gui was also implicated. He was killed by the imperial sects on the banks of Luoshui River.
Experts know.
Although they believed that this law was against the harmony of nature and unanimously agreed to seal the town again and prohibit it from returning to the world, only those people themselves know what the actual situation is."
When Ye Xiao heard this, he had a look of surprise on his face, "According to what Protector Yan said, Cangchou, the ghost hand of the Touring Department, is a warrior who has been fused with mysterious silk threads into his body?"
The man nodded, "Although it has never been put on the table, secretly, it is just a tacit secret.
Even the high-ranking Xuanwu Taoist Master Feng Zhen at the time was just talking nice, but in fact he had already joined in the research on the mysterious silk threads."
Ye Xiao raised his hand to wipe away the blood on his lips, and suddenly thought of something, "Guishou Cangchou from the Patrol Department, how old is this person?"
