Chapter 223 Jiang Yi’s Invitation
In the alley, the sound of music intertwined with the intention of killing.
Jiang Shouzhong has a strong and vigorous posture, tapping the bluestone with his toes, like a civet avoiding arrows, nimbly dodging the incoming wind blades.
In the flash of lightning, he suddenly pulled out the Seven Kills sword from his waist.
The light of the sword is like a cold moon emerging from the clouds, accompanied by a biting wind.
Tsk!
The passing wind blades left deep grooves on the ground.
Jiang Shouzhong's body turned into a bolt of lightning, driving directly towards the woman who was playing the strings. The howling wind of the knife split the heavy air around him.
Qin Shier looked indifferent and continued to play with her fingers.
A series of wind blades surround the woman's body, shining like a spiritual snake protecting the law.
What Qin Shier is good at is turning mysterious energy into a weapon, attacking from a distance, using music as a sword, and the rhythm is unpredictable. She has tenderness around her fingers, but also hides her sharp edge, making her opponent elusive.
Not only does it require the support of extremely strong Dantian mysterious energy, but the control of the mysterious energy must also reach the point of perfection.
Compared to Jiang Shouzhong, she has more combat experience.
Even if Jiang Shouzhong dodges deftly with the help of Zhui Feng Bu and approaches step by step, she can always force him back again with ease.
Dang Dang!
Jiang Shouzhong fended off two wind blades, his arm shaking with pain.
Taking advantage of the gap, he observed the terrain, and then he rose up again and approached the opponent against the wall with the force of breaking the bamboo.
“Dragon Slayer Sword!”
When he was about thirty steps away, Jiang Shouzhong flicked his finger.
The ring wrapped around the finger suddenly broke free and turned into a dazzling golden light, speeding through the air and approaching Qin Shier. Along the way, the wind blades were torn apart by its sharp edge and scattered invisible.
Qin Shier's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and the five fingers of her delicate hands suddenly exerted force.
In an instant, a surge of invisible power surged, and a clear light barrier appeared around him, which was indestructible.
Gold and iron clashed, the sound was harsh, and the dragon-slaying sword was thrown out by the shock.
The pipa in the woman's hand had two broken strings.
Qin Shier took two steps back.
"Why is this bitch even more difficult to deal with than Gu Zhifu from Longevity Mountain and River?"
Jiang Shouzhong was secretly frightened. He moved around, taking advantage of the lull in the opponent's attack, and continued to pull against the wall. Close range.
Qin Shier was equally horrified.
In her memory, Jiang Shouzhong's cultivation was only a second-grade martial artist, and killing him was easy. However, now that the other party was able to fight her face to face, could this guy have used some secret method?
The Seven Kills sword danced in the wind, approaching step by step.
Jiang Shouzhong still played steadily.
This should be the first time since his practice that he has truly had a one-on-one duel with a master who is superior to him.
Although he had defeated Gu Zhifu before, it was only when the opponent was unprepared.
Qin Shier's expression remained motionless, the pipa played more urgently, and as the notes jumped, countless fine ice needles seemed to condense in the air, sweeping towards Jiang Shouzhong, the cold air pressing into his skin and bones.
The two of them fought, one offensive and one defensive, one strong and one soft, the sword, light, sound and shadow constantly intertwined.
In the alley, there are deep marks on the stone pavement and walls.
Seeing Jiang Shouzhong always pressed against the wall, Qin Shier suddenly touched a string with her fingertips, and the sound of the pipa suddenly stopped. The air around her suddenly froze, as if time had stopped.
Jiang Shouzhong was confused, suddenly became alert, and rushed forward suddenly.
The wall behind him exploded.
But the next second, the opponent seemed to have accurately calculated his dodge direction, and the sound wave took shape, as if weaving an invisible net, rushing towards him from all directions.
Jiang Shouzhong shouted loudly, and swung his long sword with fierce winds of the blade, using force to break through skill and cut through the web woven by the rhythm.
Just when the woman was about to continue strumming the strings, she suddenly turned around, her clothes were flowing, and she avoided a hosta flying sword that sneaked behind her at some point, but it also grazed her. A brush across the cheek.
A trace of blood suddenly fell on the woman's face.
"Flying Sword? Is this guy also a master of the Heavenly Desolate Realm?"
Feeling the burning pain, Qin Shier was stunned, and then her eyes suddenly turned cold. This unique fingering method continuously strikes the strings, and the sound waves are like the waves of the angry sea, one after another.
The sound wave surged in like a tidal wave, rolling up thousands of piles of snow.
Jiang Shouzhong, who had just gotten close, was forced to retreat step by step again. His long sword held up a silver light, and the sharp wind of the sword split the sound-blade flying knives apart one by one, leaving several scars on his body. .
The sound of the pipa turns sharp and slow, and the sound waves become solid.
The big strings are noisy like heavy rain, and the small ones are like whispers.
Seeing the woman use the box-pressing technique, Jiang Shouzhong was no longer in a hurry to attack. He used the Wind Chasing Step to dodge and block the flying blades.
He wants to compete with the opponent's inner strength to see who loses the blue first.
With the blessing of Daomen Hetu, the vitality in his Dantian recovered very quickly, and Qin Shier's long-range attack consumed more internal energy. He did not believe that this woman could keep attacking him in this way.
Sure enough, as the two were in a stalemate, Qin Shier's attack intensity began to slowly decrease.
Qin Shier had already seen Jiang Shouzhong's plan and didn't care.
Because in her opinion, Jiang Shouzhong's internal strength could not last long. But as her internal strength gradually dried up, Jiang Shouzhong was still full of energy, and Qin Shier had a bad premonition in her heart.
"Is this guy so strong inside?"
The woman was secretly shocked.
Realizing that procrastinating any longer would be detrimental to her and that she must make a quick decision, Qin Shier suddenly moved her hands.
"The strings lead the dragon to roar!"
The sound of the strings is clear and clear, like a blue dragon roaring at the moon, and the sound wave turns into a blue dragon shape and roars out.
Coming!
Seeing that the woman had finally used her ultimate move, Jiang Shouzhong quickly took a few steps back and sheathed the knife, his eyes twinkling.
At the moment when the sound blade dragon attacked, Jiang Shouzhong saw the right opportunity, used his whole body cultivation, and suddenly drew out the short sword of the Seven Kills Sword!
Whoosh!
With the explosion of majestic evil energy, the dragon shattered directly.
Jiang Shouzhong was knocked away.
He forcibly swallowed the blood, used the Wind Chasing Step, rushed towards the woman, and took advantage of the situation to use the Dragon Slaying Flying Sword.
The dragon-slaying sword that had been tempered at the Mingjian Villa brought with it the power of thousands of hammers and hundreds of refinements. A golden light flashed across it, and it pierced Qin Shier like a meteor piercing the sky, with frightening power.
Wherever the brilliance reaches, the air seems to be split into two, and the sharp sound is deafening.
Qin Shier did not expect that the other party would counterattack so quickly, and a flash of panic flashed between her brows. Immediately, the sound of the pipa suddenly changed, with a melodious melody, turning into a wall of sound in front of her, intending to melt the power of the blade.
But the next moment, she realized something was wrong
The dragon-slaying sword she offered was soft and had no lethality.
Whoosh!
In the sky above my head, the hosta flying sword that sneaked up from unknown time rushed down.
Qin Shier hurriedly dodged, but Jiang Shouzhong seemed to have anticipated the direction the opponent would avoid and threw out the Seven Kills Long Sword in his hand.
The distance between the two of them has reached less than ten meters.
“Go to hell!”
Qin Shier waved her hand and knocked away the thrown long knife, gritted her silver teeth, and simply gave it all, breaking all the remaining two strings, Pipa The strings vibrate, and the sound is as sonorous as a dragon chanting and a phoenix chirping.
“Move and change positions!”
Jiang Shouzhong stepped hard and his figure suddenly disappeared.
What! ?
Qin Shier’s expression changed.
I didn’t expect that the other party would actually be able to use the Wanshou Mountains and Rivers technique of shifting places. Sensing the murderous aura coming from behind, the woman quickly turned around.
But behind him was only the flying sword of the Hosta that was always harassing but never directly confronting the enemy.
Fooled!
Qin Shier was horrified.
Jiang Shouzhong studied Gu Zhifu's technique of transposition before and studied it carefully. He even asked for advice on the technique of Calm Bagua, but he only imitated some superficial skills and could not learn the essence.
He just used the Wind Chasing Step to copycat the village.
Sure enough, he deceived the other party.
Jiang Shouzhong pulled out the Spirit Water Sword. Wind blades were flying on the way, and they were all destroyed by the light of the sword and shattered into pieces.
The distance between the two is less than half a meter.
Jiang Shouzhong tried his best to pull out the Seven Kills Short Sword again, and even forcibly absorbed part of the demon power in the zodiac chart and turned it into internal power.
Poof——
Even if Qin Shier resisted in time, it was still delayed for a moment and was powerless. The stringless pipa in his hand fell apart and splintered.
Along with the broken pieces of the piano, the woman flew out upside down and smashed through the wall, leaving a shocking crack.
The wall collapsed with a roar, and dust filled the sky.
Not waiting for the woman to get up, Jiang Shouzhong rushed forward and used the Eight-Ji Burning Sky Fist!
Punch after punch hit the opponent's soft and delicate body. Soon the woman was lying on her body like a dead body, with only air coming out and no air coming in.
"Goodbye."
Lieutenant Jiang Shouzhi placed the Seven Kills Dagger across the woman's neck and sighed, "I hope I can be your reborn parent in the next life."
The woman's lips moved, as if she was about to say something. Jiang Shouzhong didn't bother to listen and scratched the woman's throat.
Blood spread and the woman cut off her last trace of life.
Jiang Shouzhong staggered to his feet and sat on the half-destroyed wall, breathing heavily. His clothes were stained with blood. His condition was not much better.
Looking at the corpse on the ground, Jiang Shouzhong suddenly felt a little dazed.
Three months ago, I was as weak as a chicken in front of the opponent. At that time, I was almost beaten by the opponent, and I had no power to fight back. Now he personally killed this extremely powerful master.
This improvement in strength is simply amazing.
Jiang Shouzhong didn't dare to think about it.
In three months, he will probably be able to bring down masters like Meng Niang.
In another six months, the Sword Demon Master can only look up and sigh with tears, the master is better than the master.
In nine months, masters like Li Guanshi will not be worth mentioning.
In another year, don’t ask, ask and you will be invincible.
Jiang Shouzhong's confidence increased greatly. After regaining his strength, he came to Qin Shier's body again. Looking at the woman's graceful body, his eyes couldn't help but be a little fiery.
Jiang Shouzhong touched the other party's body...it was still warm.
So he untied the other person's clothes and searched for the other person's belongings while it was hot.
As the name suggests, licking the bag.
Soon, Jiang Shouzhong took out a secret book called "Qi Refining Technique" from the woman.
Refining Qi?
Jiang Shouzhong flipped through a few pages and understood.
It is a technique that releases internal energy to the outside, condensing the energy in the Dantian into a murderous weapon for long-range attacks.
“Good stuff.”
Recalling Qin Shier's ferocious move of using sound waves to kill people, Jiang Shouzhong licked his lips, put away the secret book of the technique, and planned to try it when he went back to see if he could practice a six-meridian sword.
Just as Jiang Shouzhong was thinking about how to dispose of the body, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew over his neck.
Jiang Shouzhong rolled forward and unsheathed his long sword.
But I saw a splash of dark yellow powder in the air, with a pungent medicinal smell.
Jiang Shouzhong was startled. He hurriedly covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves and retreated quickly.
I vaguely saw a figure flashing past.
The powder scattered with the wind, and in an instant, the surroundings were covered with a hazy color, like the long autumn mist, but the figure captured just now was nowhere to be seen. Jiang Shouzhong leaned against the wall, holding his breath and watching the surroundings.
However, after a long time, no other abnormalities appeared. It seemed that the person who threw the powder had left.
Jiang Shouzhong thought the powder was poisonous, but there was no abnormality in his body. He couldn't help but wonder who wanted to sneak attack him.
After waiting for a long time, it was finally confirmed that the mysterious man would not appear again, and Jiang Shouzhong's tense heartstrings relaxed slightly.
He picked up some powder on the ground, put it to his nose and smelled it.
Realgar powder?
What to do with realgar powder?
Jiang Shouzhong thought for a while but couldn't come up with an answer.
...
After simply disposing of Qin Shier’s body, Jiang Shouzhong returned to the six doors.
Jinxiu cried anxiously when she saw her uncle with blood on his body.
Although Jiang Shouzhong repeatedly emphasized that it was nothing serious, the girl hurried to the study to tell Ran Qingchen.
Ran Qingchen, who was doing official business, heard this and rushed over in a hurry. Jiang Shouzhong had already taken off his clothes and got into the bathtub to clean himself. The water mixed with blood in the bathtub was quite scary.
Facing the woman's questioning, Jiang Shouzhong had no choice but to tell what happened.
"Qin Shi'er..."
Hearing this name, Ran Qingchen was startled.
She has heard about this master of the Western Chu Academy, and he is considered a very strong figure in the Tianhuang Realm.
My husband actually killed her...
Dyeing the light dust, your beautiful eyes are shining.
Even she can't guarantee a sure kill.
Seeing that the man was indeed fine, the woman felt relieved and said softly: "Try to stay with me from now on and don't go out casually."
Jiang Shouzhong said helplessly: "I'm here again Not a child. Besides, how many masters like Qin Shier are deliberately trying to trouble me? And with my current cultivation level, I can start a sect in the world."
"Really. ”
Ran Qingchen narrowed his eyes and glared.
This glance was both a look of anger and amusement, adding an indescribable charm that made the man stunned for a moment.
Jiang Shouzhong quickly recited the Heart Sutra silently and tried to meditate.
My desire value has been raised by Mengniang, so my brain is always full of yellow waste. Especially when I saw Jiang Yi's long black silk legs dangling in front of me on the carriage, I actually had a dream at night.
Damn it.
Now I actually fantasize about what the cold wife in front of me looks like wearing high-quality silk.
But there is one thing to say. After being together for so long, Jiang Shouzhong realized that his wife seemed to be a bit coquettish.
Just when the man was thinking wildly, he actually put up a flag.
Originally soaking naked in the tub, after discovering this change, Jiang Shouzhong was so frightened that he curled up and recited the Great Compassion Mantra silently in his heart.
Damn it, Meng Niang hurt me.
"What's wrong?"
The man's movements caught Ran Qingchen's attention, thinking that the other party was injured, and his beautiful eyes showed deep concern.
Jiang Shouzhong smiled awkwardly and said: "It's nothing, I'm... now, can you go out first."
Ran Qingchen finally realized what he was doing, blushed and left the room.
The man breathed a sigh of relief.
He lowered his head and said to Xiao Jiang: "Next time, Meng Niang will strangle you."
...
Not long after taking a bath, Qiuye suddenly came.
"Jiang Mo, Madam asked me to come to you and said I would take you to a place."
Qiuye said softly.
The girl is dressed in Mo Yi, almost the same as the other three sisters.
When facing Jiang Shouzhong, his eyes were slightly lowered, and there was a complex gloom between his eyebrows. It seemed that there were thousands of words choked in his throat, and finally turned into a girl's unique gloomy emotion, which is difficult to express in words.
After coming to Qingzhou this time, Qiuye never spent time alone with Jiang Shouzhong, and even if they chatted, they rarely chatted.
The feeling of getting along in the capital seems to have faded a lot.
Jiang Shouzhong asked curiously: "Where are you going?"
Qiuye shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Madam is waiting for you outside the gate."
Jiang Shouzhong hesitated slightly and nodded lightly, "Let's go."
Two The man walked out of the room and headed towards the door. Along the way, Qiuye always deliberately walked half a step faster, surpassing the man by half a body, and remained silent.
Jiang Shouzhong looked at the woman's crystal ears and moving profile, and recalled the time when they went to the Xichu Pavilion to save people together, and chuckled: "Qiuye, do you still remember that Qin Shi'er?"
The girl's delicate body trembled and she nodded silently.
Of course I remember.
But what she remembers more clearly, or what she will never forget in her life, is...the man next to her once risked his life at Qin Shier's hands to save her.
"I killed her."
"What!?"
Qiuye stood up suddenly, eyes widening.
Jiang Shouzhong said with a smile: "That woman wanted to kill me, but I killed her instead. Today, she has avenged both of us. From now on, you don't have to worry about me being in danger."
"I...I'm not worried about you."
Qiuye whispered with a red face, but felt that the words were too hurtful, so he quickly added, "I'm very worried about you."
But after I finished speaking, I still felt something was wrong.
The girl hesitated, her face turning increasingly red.
Jiang Shouzhong smiled and said: "I remember going to the Xichu Pavilion to save people. At that time, I used Qinggong to follow you, but Xia He laughed at me. You still carried me all the way to the Xichu Pavilion. Unfortunately, now that my cultivation level has improved, I don't have this blessing. "
Qiuye smiled as he recalled that scene.
The unfamiliarity between the two people disappeared quietly at this moment.
Just thinking that the second sister who was a stranger to Jiang Mo is now having sex with a man and a woman, but she seems to be getting farther and farther away from Jiang Mo, and the smile on the girl's face slowly disappears.
Its desolate mood is like spring flowers shining on the water, which is pity and moving.
"By the way, I'll give you a gift."
Jiang Shouzhong took out a gold bracelet and handed it to the girl.
Qiuye was stunned for a moment, looking at the golden bracelet in front of her, the girl bit her lip lightly, stretched out her hand to take it, and whispered thank you.
“It’s the only one, be careful not to lose it.”
Jiang Shouzhong joked.
Qiuye smiled and nodded, "I will keep it well."
...
Arrived outside the six-door gate, Jiang Yi's carriage stopped not far away.
Entering the carriage, Jiang Shouzhong was shocked to find that besides Jiang Yi, Li Guanshi was also there.
Jiang Yi still has the same enchanting decoration. The black silk cold stockings fit her jade legs and outline the seductive curves. They complement the uniquely cut dress and show her charming appearance.
At this time, the woman was sitting lazily on her side, with one hand resting on her lap, her eyes half-closed, as if she was careless, but in fact, she had a hint of flirtatiousness, and her coquettish intentions were naturally revealed.
After seeing Jiang Shouzhong, Jiang Yi smiled sweetly and said, "Master Jiang, I will take you to the lecture today."
Listen to the lecture?
Jiang Shouzhong didn’t know why.
Li Guanshi looked indifferent, holding a wine gourd and drinking wine silently. The car curtain was half rolled up, and the breeze blew on his face, carrying a few strands of black hair, making it misty and clear.
"The lady from the Longevity Mountains and Rivers you met before is going to give a lecture to our most beautiful woman in the world. We ordinary people might as well go and listen. She might become a monk tomorrow."
Jiang Yi's words were sarcastic and a bit teasing, "I would like to see if I can make Mr. Jiang abstain from sex."
You want me to join in the fun for such a trivial matter?
You might as well give me a piece of silk.
Jiang Shouzhong wanted to complain, but finally kept his mouth shut and sat next to Jiang Yi.
Soon, the carriage stopped in front of a temple called "Gufan Temple".
“We have chosen a good place for abstinence.” Jiang Yi said with a smile.
Standing at the door was a monk over sixty years old, with a face like a full moon, wearing a brown cassock and holding a rosary.
"The poor monk has met Mr. Li and the donor Jiang."
The monk put his hands together and saluted respectfully, "The donor Dugu is already waiting in the main hall. The two donors moved forward and the poor monk led the way. ”
The monk turned around and went ahead with a steady pace, leading everyone through the long corridor to a courtyard gate.
The temple seems to have been deliberately emptied. Not to mention pilgrims, there are not many monks in the temple. It is very quiet. Only the footsteps of a few people echo lightly in the ancient temple, and the Zen feeling is long.
However, upon entering the other courtyard, many monks were secretly hiding and watching from a distance.
A trace of sarcasm passed over the corners of Jiang Yi's lips. Her clothes were flowing, looking both enchanting and dignified. The black silk trailed to the floor, outlining her graceful figure, like the ink lotus blooming in a Buddhist hall, holy and charming.
This intentionally or unintentionally flirtatious gesture made many monks swallow their saliva.
"Desire is in the human heart, how can we restrain it? Even the Buddha couldn't restrain it." Jiang Yi sneered.
The monk leading the way remained silent.
Li Guanshi's posture was casual and he drank wine from time to time.
Stepping into the hall, light shines through the gauze curtains and shines on the golden statue of Guanyin. The Buddha's light shines everywhere, making it even more compassionate and peaceful.
Eternal lamps are enshrined on both sides, the lights are swaying, cigarettes are curling, and the air is filled with a faint scent of sandalwood,
Dugu Luoxue stood quietly in front of the Guanyin statue, looking up.
Wearing a Jingchai cloth skirt, she is like a plum in the frost, elegant and pure without makeup. Just like the demure fairy who walked out of the ancient scrolls, she does not eat the fireworks of the world, and only maintains a peaceful life in the world.
"Luoxue has met Mr. Li, Mrs. Jiang, Mr. Jiang..."
Dugu Luoxue turned around and saluted everyone, her face was as quiet as an ancient well, showing some abstinence. The rhyme.
Jiang Shouzhong had to admit that in front of this woman, he did feel a calm and stoic feeling.
It's like snowflakes falling on the body, and the coldness touches the skin, but the mind becomes clearer, as if it has experienced a natural baptism.
In layman's terms... my younger brother can't hold his head up.
The monk served tea to everyone and then silently exited the hall.
Jiang Yi sat casually with a graceful posture and said with a smile:
“I heard that there is a forbidden place in the ancient Buddhist temple called the Hell of Fire, where monks who make mistakes will go through a Abi’s hellish penance and repentance, I thought you were going to take us there and give us a lecture.”
Lonely Luoxue smiled and said: "Abstinence is not a punishment, so naturally there is no need for such a place. But coming to the Buddhist temple today is indeed a coincidence. After all, the pure place of Buddhism is good for those with few desires."
"OK Come on, let’s get started.”
Jiang Yi gestured to Chunyu to bring over the latest erotic book she carried with her, and while reading it, she smiled, “Let me, a bitch whose mind is full of men, come over. Also listen carefully and see if you can stop your desire."
Jiang Shouzhong took a closer look and the corners of his mouth twitched.
Good guy, this Mrs. Jiang is really coquettish, peeking at the Buddhist Holy Land.
Dugu Luoxue looked at Jiang Shouzhong with her clear eyes, and asked with a smile: "Master Jiang also wants to abstain from sex?"
Jiang Shouzhong laughed, "I just listened casually."
Dugu Luoxue smiled and nodded. After Li Guanshi sat down, he said softly: "Let's get started."
