MTL - Great Xuanwu Sheng

Chapter 16 Ruby

This is not over yet.

Immediately behind the handful of white ash, there was the light of a sword thrown out of the darkness. Just as the black clouds dispersed, a crescent moon was revealed. The moonlight reflected the light of the sword, like the claws of a demon.

Tang Quan couldn't open his eyes, but his ears could hear the sharp sound of breaking through the air. He immediately knew that the person who was attacking was definitely not an ordinary unruly person, but a serious practitioner. He quickly waved a knife in his hand and moved forward. Block it.

Ding ding dong dong!

 In almost a short moment, the two knives collided no less than a dozen times.

These dozen or so collisions made Tang Quan's heart feel even colder. Although the opponent's sword didn't feel very powerful and he didn't seem to have practiced body tempering techniques, his moves were extremely subtle and even more awe-inspiring. The lingering force wrapped around his knife, making it difficult for him to tear it apart. This was undoubtedly a perfect sword technique, a skill that can only be acquired after practicing the knife force!

There are not that many people who can practice their skills to the level of 'Shi'. In fact, there are many people who have reached the level of 'flesh training' in the Body Tempering Method, but their skills have not yet reached the level of 'Shi'. After all, the Body Tempering Method can be used. Forcibly stacking various tonics and medicines on top of each other is just a matter of hard work and has nothing to do with understanding, but skills require understanding.

One person who has achieved the level of "flesh training" is enough to compete with ten characters of the same "flesh training" level. This step is a thousand miles away from the ordinary state.

His sword power was something he finally figured out in a flash of inspiration after escaping from death countless times.

How did the person in front of me get trained?

And the strangest thing is that this person has mastered the sword force, but he seems to have never practiced the body tempering method. It is simply bizarre. For a character who can master the sword force, he must practice the body tempering method to the second step of training the body. 'It's absolutely not difficult.

 After only a dozen short rounds of fighting, Tang Quan secretly complained in his heart.

If in normal times, this technique is perfect and the sword power is perfect, but he has obviously never been exposed to the internal method practice, he will not be afraid even if one is against ten, but now he is seriously injured and does not dare to use force at all. Seventy percent of his 100% strength was gone. What's more, it rained all night, which ruined the opponent's plan. His eyes were so hot that he couldn't open them, and he was completely blind. This put him at an even greater disadvantage.

I was just trying to find a place to hide and heal my injuries, so why did I bump into such a person?

 “Brother, stop.”

Tang Quan resisted several more attacks with difficulty and shouted in a hoarse voice.

"What do you want?"

 The Cha Dao in Chen Mu's hand slowed down slightly.

Tang Quan noticed that Chen Mu's offensive was slowing down, and when he heard Chen Mu's response, he felt relieved. He knew that the enemy was not chasing him. He was secretly annoyed that he was so unlucky, but he still said softly: "I I was injured, and I just wanted to find a place to heal. I have no other intentions. You and I have no grievances, so how about we just let it go?"

The voice fell.

Tang Quan felt that the opponent's moves were slower, as if he was thinking about something.

 After about a few breaths, a voice came from the other side.

"good."

Tang Quan felt slightly relieved.

But at the next moment, the sword attack on the opposite side, which had slowed down, suddenly became more violent and fierce, even more fierce than before!

"you!"

Tang Quan was caught off guard and barely managed to parry a move with the knife in his hand, and then he was hit by a knife in his left shoulder.

Chen Mu's eyes were cold and his sword was ferocious. He used the strong wind sword technique to its extreme, slashing out with several more swish of knives.

Tang Quan was injured on his left shoulder. Originally, he was left with only one hand holding the sword in his left hand. Now his strength weakened again and he could no longer withstand Chen Mu's sharp sword. After a few moves, the sword was completely shaken away, and then he felt a sensation on his neck. A pain.

　　　…”

Tang Quan staggered back a few steps, stretched out his hands to cover his neck, and tried his best to open his burning and stinging eyes, trying to see who the person in front of him was. However, he barely opened his eyes and only saw one person. Indistinct shadows.

 Finally, he showed an unwilling look, fell backwards, fell into a pool of blood, twitched a few times, and gradually became motionless.

 Chen Mu gasped slightly.

Once again, again familiar, this second time he killed someone, there was no hesitation in his heart. Of course he just listened to the nonsense like 'no injustice and no hatred'. He had no injustice and no hatred before, but he tried to break into him In the room, he ate a handful of quicklime and was forced by him one after another. There was no way to say that there was no injustice or enmity.

What's more, this man was so fierce that he had never seen him before. His body was obviously scarred, and there seemed to be a terrifying penetrating wound in his chest and abdomen. He was also blinded by him. In this situation, he could resist him for dozens of times. trick.

 A ray of dim moonlight broke through the dark fog and fell.

Chen Mu, who was staring closely at Tang Quan's body, could barely make out his appearance, but was shocked to see a very obvious black mark on his right cheek, which immediately reminded him of the arrest warrant during the day.

 “This person...is the evil thief Tang Quan?”

Chen Mu took a few steps closer to the corpse and looked carefully. A strange color suddenly appeared in his eyes. He had practiced sword practice until he was exhausted. When he was about to go to sleep, he heard the noise outside. He immediately took out the lime and other materials that he had prepared a long time ago to guard against bandits. When the other party opened the door, he made a plot. At first, he thought it was some small thief. , and when they started fighting, they found out that it was a murderer. Only then did they finally identify it, it turned out to be the evil thief Tang Quan who had been issued an arrest warrant!

The other party obviously didn't come to steal. Judging from the injuries on his body, he was probably being chased by someone. In a panic, he wanted to break into his house and hide. As a result, he happened to meet him who was still practicing swordsmanship. She fell into his plot and died under his knife without any reason.

 In an instant.

Countless thoughts flashed through Chen Mu's mind.

This evil thief Tang Quan is different from the incense owner of the Black Snake Gang last time. He could pick it up last time, but this Tang Quan is obviously involved in a lot. He is not something that can be easily fooled. I am afraid he will be investigated afterwards. Bottom up.

Just when Chen Mu was thinking quickly about how to deal with the body.

 Suddenly.

 A somewhat cold voice sounded.

“Which company are you in charge of? Why haven’t I seen you?”

Following the source of the sound, I saw a figure wearing a white flying fish suit. Under the dim moonlight, I don’t know when he appeared at the corner of the eaves not far away.

Because of the dim moonlight, he couldn't see the specific appearance, but the white Feiyu suit was extremely conspicuous. Chen Mu was slightly startled and immediately realized the identity of the visitor, because only one person in the entire Nancheng District could wear it. This official uniform.

Chief Division of the City Health Department of Nancheng District.

 Xu Hongyu.

Although Chen Mu himself was not wearing official uniform at this moment, the knife in his hand was obviously a standard bad knife. It was not surprising that Xu Hongyu recognized him as a member of the City Guards Department.

 “Chen Mu, the messenger from the Jiutiaoli City Guards Division, has met Mr. Chief Secretary.”

 Chen Mu immediately bowed respectfully to Xu Hongyu, and was a little surprised. It seemed that the person who was chasing Tang Quan was actually the chief mission officer himself, and he didn't know what Tang Quan was trying to do.

Xu Hongyu's figure flashed and came to Chen Mu from the corner of the eaves. She looked at Chen Mu with some surprise and said, "A policeman from Jiutiao? No wonder I haven't seen you before. Are you practicing the Xunfeng lineage of swordsmanship?" "

From her point of view, she would certainly not admit it wrong. Chen Mu's sword technique just now must be of the Xunfeng lineage, and he had practiced it to the point where the sword technique was perfect and the sword power was vertical and horizontal. Otherwise, he would not have been able to kill Tang Quan, even if Tang Quan Already seriously injured.

 At this time, I took a closer look.

What was even more surprising was that Chen Mu looked quite young. He looked to be in his early twenties, not much different from her. It was very rare for him to be able to perfect his sword skills and master his sword skills at this age.

 “Yes, my lord, your eyes are as bright as a torch.”

 Chen Mu responded carefully.

At this moment, Xu Hongyu was standing less than two meters in front of him. Through the dim moonlight, she could already see the color of the Nancheng District Chief Police Officer who was rumored to have the appearance of a fish and a goose. In the haze, it was like the Moon Palace Fairy. It could only be said that it was a rumor. Not empty.

Xu Hongyu looked at Chen Mu thoughtfully and said, "How old are you this year?"

"twenty two."

 Chen Mu responded.

Hearing this, Xu Hongyu nodded slightly.

Although she had practiced swordplay since she was a child and had mastered the swordsmanship at the age of twenty, much earlier than Chen Mu, Chen Mu had never practiced the body tempering method and was obviously a lowly servant who was struggling at the bottom. , It is not easy to reach this point by relying entirely on one's own talent. It is considered a talent.

 “Chen Mu…”

After Xu Hongyu pondered briefly, she walked to Tang Quan's body, stretched out her hand to lift Tang Quan's body, and said, "I will remember the reward for Tang Quan's capture. You can find me at the headquarters tomorrow afternoon."

"yes."

 Chen Mu responded immediately.

 At the same time, I felt slightly relieved.

Tang Quan's matter is obviously a big trouble, and it is not suitable for him to be involved at all now. Now that Xu Hongyu, the chief mission officer, has stopped him, it is the best for him, and he has experienced this After a while, he entered the opponent's field of vision early, but it was also very good.

 After all, if he wanted to be promoted to the post of chief chaplain, he would have had to get the nod from Xu Hongyu, the chief chaplain.

Xu Hongyu jumped up with Tang Quan's body in his hands. After a few ups and downs, he disappeared into the night, leaving only Chen Mu shaking his head and turning around to return home.
