Money in the heavens

Ruan Yushu has a family background in calligraphy, so how could he not know that this is one of the six magical powers of Buddhism, telepathy? No wonder he knew the information about Du Wuchang.

The unknown is the most frightening...

Shang Yi knew that Du Wuchang's attack this time was not to kill people, but to shock the heroes of the martial arts world, let them know that they should be careful about their lives to protect Lu Guan, and scare these people away.

Sure enough, in the middle of the night, someone could be heard quietly getting up, stepping out of the door, climbing over the wall, and escaping quickly.

After the first one, there was the second and the third. In just one hour, nearly twenty people climbed over the wall and escaped.

At dawn, Shang Yi just walked out of the door and heard Lu Zhongqi's angry voice:

"This group of cowards! What chivalrous and righteous, they ran away with their tails between their legs when they met Du Wuchang!"

At this time, besides a few guards of the family, there were only Tiger Taoist, Jiao Chong and two or three heroes of the martial arts world around Lu Guan.

Lu Guan looked calm, without any anger:

"It is a sense of loyalty for all my friends to come to help me. It is my honor to leave. It is human nature to worry about yourself and want to leave. It is natural and reasonable. There is nothing wrong with it."

He bowed solemnly to Shang Yi, Tiger Taoist and other remaining heroes:

"This trip is dangerous and there is a high risk of death. Please think carefully before setting off with me."

"Since I have come here, I have put life and death aside!" Tiger Taoist said passionately.

Shang Yi smiled and said:

"It is good that they left. There are more people, and it is inevitable that there will be a mix of good and bad people. If there is a traitor who mixes in, it will be a tricky thing."

Ruan Yushu did not speak, but nodded gently, indicating that he would not leave either.

Lu Guan was deeply moved and bowed again: "I will never forget your kindness."

The group set out again, but compared with yesterday, there were 70% to 80% fewer people, and the loneliness revealed an indescribable tragic and majestic feeling.

On the way, Lu Zhongqi looked at Shang Yi and Ruan Yushu and said with emotion: "I didn't expect that you two are young, but you have the demeanor of ancient knights. I'm sorry to trouble you to escort General Lu to the capital."

Due to the serious shortage of manpower, he had to pay attention to Shang Yi and Ruan Yushu.

The crowd dressed up as merchants and went out of the city. Soon they arrived in the wild. The trees gradually increased, and some of them were still hanging with fruits.

Since they had not eaten for half a day and a night, several house-born children and heroes of the rivers and lakes could not bear it, so they picked fruits to fill their stomachs. This natural thing couldn't be poisoned, right?

After checking the fruits, they tried one casually, and then returned with it, intending to present it to Lu Guan, Meng Qi and others.

Suddenly, they fell to the ground with foam at the mouth, their bodies twitched, and they were out of breath in a blink of an eye.

Even the natural fruits were poisoned!

Jiao Chong rushed forward, intending to rescue the one who was still struggling with good internal strength, but at this moment, three poisonous needles shot out from the forest and hit his face.

Jiao Chong was prepared, jumped forward, and dodged the poisonous needles.

With a whoosh, a thin blue light shot out from nowhere and hit Jiao Chong's left arm!

Jiao Chong gritted his teeth and drew out his long sword, directly cutting off his left arm, blood gushed out, and then he tapped several major acupoints to temporarily seal the wound.

Du Wuchang is nearby!

Shang Yi's expression was slightly cold, Du Wuchang was going to defeat everyone bit by bit!

With a move of his feet, Shang Yi had disappeared from the spot, and the next moment he appeared on a mound of earth.

"Since you like the mound so much, don't come out!"

As he said that, he stepped down fiercely with unparalleled power.

"Hmm~~~"

A muffled groan came from the mound, and then a trace of blood flowed out. Du Wuchang died at Shang Yi's feet, just like stepping on an ant.

Then, after killing Du Wuchang, Shang Yi appeared beside the poisoned Jiao Chong and others, with golden Buddha light on his body.

"Sacrifice Technique!"

Ruan Yushu whispered after hearing this.

The golden Buddha light enveloped the poisoned people, and the poison gas on the bodies of several people including Jiao Chong was absorbed by the golden Buddha light and gathered in Shang Yi's body, but in the end it seemed that Shang Yi had no effect at all.

Ruan Yushu took a deep look at Shang Yi and whispered:

"Leakage-free, body like glass, no leakage in the whole body!"

Obviously, he thought that the reason why Shang Yi could perform the "Sacrifice Technique" so unscrupulously should be because he had comprehended the leakage-free, one of the six magical powers of Buddhism, and had a body of glass, not afraid of external evil!

Lu Guan and others also looked at Shang Yi in shock. They didn't expect that such a mysterious and powerful young man would appear in the Jianghu at some point. He could easily crush Du Wuchang to death at the age of twenty, and he also mastered the mysterious Buddhist secrets!

However, everyone has their own secrets, and Lu Guan and others will naturally not pry into Shang Yi's secrets to offend him.

After piling up the earth grave, Lu Guan sprinkled some clean water and regained his resolute look: "Let's go."

Although Shang Yi helped several people detoxify, he did not completely help them recover because there were still tasks to be done later, so he retained his own vitality. At the same time, he did not want the self-sacrifice technique to be too eye-catching, causing others to covet it and affecting the task.

Therefore, Jiao Chong and other poisoned people stayed and let them return home to recuperate. The huge team of 20 to 30 people at the time of departure now only has Lu Guan, Lu Zhongqi, Tiger Taoist, Shang Yi and Ruan Yushu. The rest escaped or died.

However, Shang Yi did not think it was bad. If it was convenient, Shang Yi even hoped that he could directly use his divine feet to take Lu Guan to the destination. Unfortunately, such an idea was not easy to implement, and the Lord of the Six Paths of Reincarnation would not let him complete the task easily.

The mountains were undulating, the mountain wind was cold, and the dilapidated mountain temple was leaking wind everywhere, blowing the fire to sway, and the shadows were twisted and stretched, like evil ghosts with bared fangs and claws.

Lu Zhongqi ate the freshly baked white flour buns and looked at the jumping flames in a trance. After changing the route, several people slept in the open air, bypassed the city and passed through the village, avoiding most of the intercepting masters, and finally arrived in the capital.

However, he did not feel at ease. The closer he got to the capital, the more uneasy he was, as if the calmness of the previous half a month was brewing for the next one or two days of storms.

He had a vague premonition that even Du Wuchang had been dispatched, and the traitors in the court would never stop there. There must be stronger masters coming, which made him very worried.

Lu Guan sat in front of the fire, reading a book, eating steamed buns, and reading a military book. He was calm and composed. He was not in danger at all. The enemy might attack at any time. This made Taoist Hu couldn't help but secretly praise him. General Lu was indeed a good general who could not blink even if a deer rose on his left!

Thinking of this, Taoist Hu tilted his head slightly and looked at Shang Yi, who was sitting cross-legged beside the fire with his eyes half open and half closed, and Ruan Yushu, who was calm and indifferent and gently playing the piano. He sighed in his heart that the two little guys were calmer than himself. It was true that the older you get in the world, the more timid you become.

It will be fine after tonight. When you get outside the capital, you can raise the flag. I believe the traitors will not dare to attack in broad daylight. After all, General Lu was personally ordered by the emperor to enter the capital, and there are many people around the capital. If the news leaks out, the whole family will be executed... Taoist Hu comforted himself, took off the long sword on his back, pulled it out with a clang, and gently stroked it.

This Tiger Roar Sword has been with me for almost 30 years. It has drunk the blood of countless evil people. I hope it can help me overcome the difficulties this time. My death is not important. If General Lu is robbed, it will be a disaster for all the people in the world.

Shang Yi felt that the situation of General Lu Guan was similar to that of Yue Fei, the famous general of the Song Dynasty. They were both loyal to their country and were harmed by treacherous ministers.

Suddenly, Shang Yi and Ruan Yushu looked outside the door. There stood a man, a tall man, holding a broadsword in his hand. I don't know when he had stood there, quietly watching everyone in the temple.

"General Jian..." Taoist Tiger stood up suddenly, pointing the Tiger Roar Sword diagonally, his voice was gloomy, and his face was solemn.

Hearing this name, Lu Zhongqi jumped up in fright. It turned out to be General Jian. He was a well-known swordsman who traveled all over the nine states, only slightly worse than the peak strong men in the world such as the Evil King and the Ghost King.

He has deep internal strength, and his sword skills are open and close, fierce and sharp, like a general charging into battle, so he has the nickname of Sword General. His strength in frontal combat is much greater than that of Du Wuchang. He once challenged nine first-class masters alone and killed them all with his sword. Whether in reputation or record, he is far better than the most powerful Tiger Taoist on his side.

Shang Yi said coldly:

"You use a sword? Then take my sword!"

He put his right hand together to make a sword and pointed at the "Sword General" standing at the door.

A sharp sword energy directly pierced into the "Sword General's" eyebrows, leaving only the "Sword General" with a look of horror and fear.

Lu Guan, Tiger Taoist and Lu Zhongqi looked at Shang Yi, who looked calm, as if he had just raised his hand, and then looked at the Sword General who died with his eyes open, and they felt fear of his strength.

Raising his hand and a sword energy in the air easily killed the "Sword General". There is such a sword technique in the world! There is such a swordsman!

Ruan Yushu also looked at Shang Yi curiously. She had seen the list of people and knew that Shang Yi had a strong swordsmanship, but she could not see any clues from the sword energy just now. It seemed that it was not the unique skills of any sect.

Tiger Taoist originally thought that he knew Shang Yi's strength better, but now it seems that the horror of his swordsmanship is still beyond his imagination. I am afraid that he is close to the level of the Ghost King Ruyi Monk.

How old is he? Is there really a natural swordsman?

With Shang Yi here, this trip to Beijing seems to be safe! Lu Zhongqi breathed a sigh of relief, nodded to Shang Yi gratefully, ran to General Jian, and bent down to search the body.

General Jian came to kill people, and his style was open and closed, so he only had a bag of dry food, a bag of silver, and a letter on him.

"Not good!" Lu Zhongqi opened the letter casually, took a look, and exclaimed.

Taoist Tiger asked anxiously: "What's wrong?"

Lu Zhongqi's expression was grim: "It was the four evil Zhengs who wrote to General Jian, and they are also coming to assassinate General Lu!"

"Fourth brother of the Zheng family?" Taoist Tiger's face changed drastically, and Lu Guan also frowned slightly.

Lu Zhongqi knew that the only person he could rely on at the moment was Shang Yi, and hurriedly introduced him:

"The four evil Zhengs are slightly inferior to General Jian individually, but they have a secret method of joining forces, and they are used to advancing and retreating together, so they were once included in the level of Ghost King Xiyue Zhenren and others, but later they joined forces to attack the evil king but were easily defeated and became his servants, so they are no longer considered to be masters of this level."

"What are these four ghosts from Xiangxi!"

Shang Yi complained in his heart, this is too similar to the style of the four ghosts from Xiangxi in front of Shen Wansan in the world of the world.

"The most terrifying thing is that the four evil men of the Zheng family are currently servants of the evil king. Their actions mean that the evil king has also intervened in this matter!"

Lu Zhongqi panicked again:

"Brother Shang Yi, Miss Ruan, how about we travel overnight?"

Shang Yi shook his head, looked out the door and said:

"It's too late, they're already here!"

Sure enough, when they looked outside the door, they heard bursts of sinister laughter.

With a bang, the door panel was knocked away, and four people rushed in like a whirlwind and stood in front of General Sword.

They look almost identical, with sluggish faces and fleshy faces. They all have empty hands.

"It's too late, you don't have time to escape." The one on the far left laughed sinisterly again.

"Because we have arrived." The brother next to him followed.

"As long as we are here, you will all die." The second person on the right emphasized.

"So there is no point in escaping or not." The one on the far right looked around Shang Yi and others proudly.

"He's dead." The Zheng brothers on the far right said as they looked at General Jian's body.

"My martial arts skills were not good enough, so I died." The second person on the right said.

"We are stronger than him, and we will definitely not die." The second person from the left emphasized forcefully.

"You will be the ones who die!" The man on the far left looked at Meng Qi and the others conspiratorially.

They stood in a strange position, always seeming to be in a semicircle, and they had to speak in a certain order.

Shang Yi looked at the four of them with interest and said:

"Is the evil king coming?"

If the Evil Lord comes, kill them together and complete the third mission directly!

"The master is not here." The eldest brother on the left of the four evil men of the Zheng family replied.

"Because there is no need to come." The second person from the left explained the reason.

"You are not worthy of him taking action." The second person on the right said respectfully.

"We are enough!" The boy on the far right is very proud.

Shang Yi heard this and said:

"That's such a pity!"

Immediately, golden light flashed in his eyes, and he wanted to use the clairvoyance and destiny power to find the location of the evil king from the past and causal lines of the four people.

However, Shang Yi suddenly frowned. The cause and effect of the evil king was actually covered up, and it was difficult to find the evil king even with his clairvoyance.

"Did the Lord of Six Paths of Reincarnation take action? I wonder which one it is this time?"

Immediately, Shang Yi raised his sword finger, and four daggers the size of his index finger flew out from his cuffs. They were transformed from the feathers of the "Xuanniao", and they also had the power of treasure weapons.

The next moment, Ruan Yushu only saw four white lights flashing away. Each of the four brothers of the Zheng family had a red dot on their eyebrows, and then the four of them lay straight on the ground.

"The art of sword control!~~"

"Flying sword~!!??"

Lu Guan and others exclaimed, everyone is painted in martial arts style and are still fighting each other with every move. How come Shang Yi secretly cultivated immortality and actually managed to use a sword to kill people!

With just one move, the four brothers of the Zheng family, who were powerful and notorious in the world, lay dead on the spot. From the beginning to the end, they had no power to fight back!

Taoist Hu felt that the shocks he had experienced in his entire life could not compare to today. It was like he was dreaming!

When did the Sword General and the four villains of the Zheng family, whom he could only hope to reach, become like ordinary people, unable to resist Shang Yi's sword at all!

It is said that together they can rival the Ghost King Xiyue Zhenren, but what about Shang Yi alone?

The way he and Lu Zhongqi looked at Meng Qi completely changed. No matter how hard it was to believe, the matter was undeniable. The man in front of them might be the current "Sword Immortal" in the future, able to stand on equal footing with the Demon Queen's Imperial Master and others!

Lu Zhongqi once again searched for the bodies of the four murderers of the Zheng family. Unfortunately, they were used to being reckless and had nothing but food on them.

"There is a letter!" When the last person was found, Lu Zhongqi said in surprise. This may be evidence that the traitor in the court ordered the assassination. When it is presented to the Holy Emperor, they will definitely not be able to bear it.

"What's the content?" Lu Guan asked calmly.

Lu Zhongqi checked it, removed the envelope, unfolded it, and his expression changed greatly: "It's a letter from Evil Lord."

He subconsciously read it out: "Guan's men were reckless, please forgive Lu Shuai. I will come to the door in person in the future. Please wait for Lu Shuai."

The seemingly polite words are domineering and confident, as if to say, I will take your head!

And this was written before the four villains of the Zheng family failed. It seems that he can predict the future!

"It's just a trick to pretend to be a god or a ghost."

Taoist Hu suddenly came to his senses: "The evil king wrote this letter to be prepared. If the four villains of the Zheng family can succeed, the letter will naturally not be seen by us. We can just burn it when we go back. If they miss it, it means that we have someone with him here." For a master of almost the same level, this letter can disturb the mind.”

"You villain from the Demon Sect!" Lu Zhongqi scolded angrily.

After he calmed down, he suddenly sighed: "But at least this means that Evil Lord will definitely take action."

"yes."

Taoist Hu also let out a long sigh, and the mountain temple became quiet and silent again, with only the lofty sound of the guqin echoing. (End of chapter)
