Wei Ci exhaled softly and paused on the spot to follow the sound.
He was a man dressed as a casual cultivator. His appearance was extremely ordinary, but his aura reached the third level.
"You are unlucky to have met me today!" As soon as he finished speaking, the casual cultivator smiled evilly and suddenly accelerated towards him.
Halfway through, the casual cultivator stretched out his hand and a soft whip with spikes rolled towards Wei Ci.
Must be resolved quickly!
Determination flashed in Wei Ci's eyes, and he took out his boning knife without hesitation and faced him.
The "Pull" knife style uses several knives to push away the soft whip, followed by the "Chopping" knife style, striking straight ahead with heavy pressure.
The casual cultivator saw that the soft whip failed to work. Although he was a little surprised, he did not stop his manual movements. He stepped forward and swung the whip again.
For a while, the two were fighting together.
For some unspoken reason, neither of them went out with all their strength, but controlled the movement within a limited range.
Wei Ci paid attention to his surroundings while looking for the right opportunity.
Perhaps because he expected that Wei Ci would not dare to use his full strength to cause a big disturbance, the long whip in his hand shrank into a slightly thicker short staff, and he advanced forward in a majestic manner.
Wei Ci was not surprised but overjoyed, the opportunity had come!
At the moment when the casual cultivator waved the short staff, he alternated between his left and right hands, changing hands with the short bone-eviscerating knife, and then directly activated the extreme finger.
"Chirp!"
This order caught the casual cultivator off guard, and a blood hole had already pierced his heart.
Feeling the rapid loss of strength in his whole body, the casual cultivator looked in disbelief. A sinister look flashed in his eyes. He didn't know what kind of Yuan skill he had activated, but he actually sent out a wave of Yuan Qi that was difficult to ignore with himself as the center.
Wei Ci didn't even react, as the energy fluctuations had spread far away.
He suddenly thought something was wrong.
This circle of fluctuations tells almost everyone within the range that a fierce battle is taking place here.
At this moment when the wanted notices had just been spread throughout the city, once exposed, the consequences would be self-evident.
"Chirp!"
Without hesitation, he added another finger and killed the casual cultivator. Then he hurriedly grabbed the short staff turned into a long whip and a velvet bag on his waist, turned around and left.
And just a few breaths after he left, several figures appeared next to the body of the casual cultivator.
One of them said to his companions: "You dare to kill people without scruples in the city at this time. I think the perpetrator is probably the person with the reward on his head. Let's chase him!"
"Wait a minute, I got here first, which turn does it take for you to take the credit?" Another person immediately retorted.
"Hmph, do we have to order the killings on a first-come, first-served basis? If we delay for a while, everyone may run away."
"That's right. Besides, the person doesn't know if there's a reward for it!"
Several people argued.
The person who spoke first frowned slightly, then turned to chuckle and said: "In my opinion, it is better for everyone to rely on their own abilities, and the person who can take the reward can take it."
Several other people looked at each other and nodded, indicating that they approved of this arrangement.
Here, Wei Ci ran all the way holding his breath and finally stopped outside the Jiang family.
He didn't let down his guard at all.
In the past half day, he had noticed at least a dozen auras gathering from all directions, which showed that the last blow of the casual cultivator he killed had indeed attracted the attention of many people.
The Jiang family is located in the north of the city center. The buildings are scattered high and low. It can be called a mansion in this world.
In the dark night, Wei Ci clung to the outer wall of Jiang's house and tried his best to move towards a corner where no one was around.
If he wants to avoid the limelight during this period, he must find a hiding place and properly disguise himself, even if he does not know this "skill".
With the help of his enhanced vision, Wei Ci looked ahead from a distance. He found that the further he continued, the wider the road became, and there was no hiding place around him.
This made him feel a little anxious.
It was raining all night, but a breath appeared in his perception, and it was not far away from him.
Although the opponent is only at the second level of cultivation, any delay in the battle at this time may expose him to the eyes of many people.
The short boning knife appeared in his hand, and Wei Ci sighed.
There is no other way but to deal with this guy first!
At this time, a somewhat vicissitudes of voice suddenly sounded in his spiritual sea: "Boy, five meters ahead, to the left, there is a secret passage there, come in!"
This sound was very abrupt, and to the anxious Wei Ci's ears, it was like thunder.
who is it?
The owner of this voice is definitely mentally stronger than me!
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the other party to directly convey the voice to his spiritual sea, Wei Ci thought to himself as he walked towards the direction the other party said.
At this time, he had no time to judge whether the other party had malicious intentions.
One meter, two meters, three meters, four meters, five meters!
Wei Ci stood in front of an ordinary stone wall and tentatively reached out and pressed it.
No reaction.
Suddenly, the wall shook slightly, and with a "chichichi" sound of friction on the stone wall, a gap appeared in the stone wall, and then gradually widened, turning into a secret door, just enough for one person to pass through.
Wei Ci didn't have time to think too much, he quickly walked to the secret door and stepped in directly.
The secret door then closed.
Behind the dark door, Wei Ci spread out his mental power and found that he was in a narrow corridor.
There are no torches, no people, no stars or other lighting objects.
However, in the distance, a rhythmic "bang bang" sound came from the other end of the corridor.
He followed the direction of the corridor, followed the sound, and followed its downward trend for dozens of meters, and finally there was some light around him.
After ten meters further, the surroundings suddenly became clearer, and the appearance of a basement appeared in front of him.
As he stepped in, the "bang bang" sound disappeared. Wei Ci scanned around, and the irritability caused by the wanted matter was quickly replaced by surprise and doubt.
What kind of place is this!
Tables and chairs, water cups, all-metal forging tables, littered clothes, alchemy furnaces, various discarded materials, some unnamed spiritual materials... all kinds of things made this space crowded and chaotic.
Finally, when his eyes fell on the front, he finally discovered the core of all this, a man who looked like an uncle.
The man was about forty years old, his clothes were a little messy, and his face looked very tired. The most noticeable thing was the man's feet. Two thick iron chains were locked on his ankles to limit his movements.
The scope is limited to this secret room.
When Wei Ci noticed the other party, the other party also turned his head and looked at him.
"Junior Wei Ci, thank you for your help, senior! I haven't asked my senior for your surname yet." Following the etiquette of a practitioner, he bowed his hands respectfully.
The man turned around and said calmly: "Just do it casually. Don't get too happy too early. Whether you can escape the pursuit of those outside depends on your luck."
Thinking of Wei Ci's last sentence, he paused and squeezed out a few words: "My name... Kuang Xun."
After that, Wei Ci didn't care what happened next, and went on to do his own thing.
Soon, the rhythm of "bang bang bang" sounded again in the basement.
Kuang Xun seems to have heard a little bit.
However, he had already memorized all the powerful men who stood at the top of the world's pyramid. If he remembered correctly, the name "Kuang Xun" should not be in it.
I guess he's not a big shot.
Wei Ci waited for a few breaths and saw that the other party was no longer paying attention to him, so he walked around the pile of debris and curiously wanted to see what the other party was doing.
When he saw it, he couldn't move his eyes away.
The other party is actually refining weapons!
It turned out that the knocking sound heard earlier was the sound of a hammer hitting a red gold writing board.
In fact, he should have thought of it earlier.
When he first entered here, the things he saw, such as the all-metal forging platform, alchemy furnace, etc., were not things that ordinary people would use, but were exclusive to weapon refiners.
Wei Ci felt a little embarrassed now.
The other party left him alone and ignored him, neither leaving nor staying.
After standing there for a moment, Wei Ci simply sat cross-legged and began to observe Kuang Xun refining the weapon.
To be precise, it is the first step of observing the forging, forging.
Tool refining, in order, is divided into five main steps: material fusion, impurity removal, rough embryo smelting, refining and shaping, and spiritual addition. The first four steps are collectively called forging.
As for the last step of spiritual addition, it is divided into two directions: "inscription" and "soul sealing".
These two directions determine the weapon refining school to which the weapon refining master belongs - the inscription weapon refining method and the soul sealing weapon refining method.
At this moment, Kuang Xun is doing the third step, smelting the rough embryo.
It has to be said that whether it is posture, movement or strength rhythm, Kuang Xun's operation looks so natural and coordinated, just like a gorgeous performance.
Wei Ci watched intently, completely unaware that the brisk rhythm had slowed down.
It wasn't until the final loud "dang" hit his ears that he suddenly woke up and came back to his senses.
"Didn't anyone tell you that it is a taboo for practitioners to steal other people's weapon refining inheritance?" Kuang Xun looked at Wei Ci, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked.
There was no blame in his tone, just a simple inquiry.
Wei Ci shook his head. He even learned the inscriptions by himself, so how could he know all the rules of the weapon refining industry.
Kuang Xun shook his head slightly.
Those who don't know are not guilty. In just a few moments, Wei Ci didn't learn anything useful.
After thinking for a while, he asked: "I'm surprised that so many people are chasing you, or in Lan City, what earth-shattering thing did your kid do?
It was indeed a casual move on his part to lead Wei Ci into this secret room.
As a weapon refiner, his mental power far exceeds that of ordinary people.
There was an aura scurrying around like a headless fly outside Jiang's house before, which caught his attention. But what really aroused his interest was the dozens of auras that gradually gathered towards Wei Ci.
"Uh... I killed the youngest son of the head of the Jiang family." Wei Ci said sarcastically.
This secret room is located under the Jiang family's mansion. Kuang Xun's surname is not Kuang, not Jiang, and he is chained here, which means that he is not a member of the Jiang family, but most likely an important person imprisoned by the Jiang family.
Therefore, Wei Ci did not conceal what he did.
The murder of the Jiang family should be something that made Kuang Xun applaud, although this was just his guess.
