he doesn't use a knife

There is an unwritten rule in the world.

If only one person makes a decision, everyone else must listen to him and act according to what he says.

But if there are two people who can make a decision, only one can persuade the other to make things happen.

Duan Yishuang is qualified to make this decision.

He can choose to stay or go.

——He felt that it was not time to leave, but he also admitted that what Xue Lanling said was indeed quite reasonable.

They can't wait here aimlessly for someone to take the bait.

They can only take the initiative.

They stayed in Weiyu City for two more days.

When the time comes, we must set off immediately.

To seize the moment.

They rode away on a cloudy day.

When leaving the city, you have to take a detour, and the time to rush to Fuyi City should be controlled within half a month.

The time should not be too long.

There will be variables in the long run.

This is a tacit understanding that does not need to be emphasized by each other.

Youqin Honghe bought three good horses.

People who do business in the world are very good at showing off their products.

Therefore, all the horses he bought were good horses that could run thousands of miles a day.

He tightened his grip on the reins, and left Xue Lanling and the two far behind.

The wind was blowing loudly.

Sweep on the forehead and cheeks, as sharp as an ice knife.

But soon, Youqin Honghe reined in and stopped again.

He turned sideways and said to the two people who rushed over, "There is a small city in front of you, called Xuncheng."

Xue Lanling asked, "Is there any difference in this city?"

Youqin Honghe nodded and said, "There is a big difference."

Xue Lanling asked, "What's the difference?"

You Qin Hong said: "When I came back from the Northland, I also passed by here - but at that time, this city was not so terrifying."

After he finished speaking, he stretched out his fingers in the direction of Xuncheng, and the two followed his direction to look, Duan Yishuang frowned.

It was a ghost town.

The reason why it is said to be a ghost town is because it is really as scary as Yuqin Honghe said.

Only one wall of Xun City was exposed in the distance.

Under such a dark sky, the people who were propped up high on the city wall were being eaten by the crows who came looking for something.

There were a few hyenas and jackals loitering indistinctly below the city, howling in a low voice, as if they were coveting the delicious food that hadn't fallen.

No one is out of town.

It was deserted and desolate, like a dead city.

No one thinks this is normal.

Youqin Honghe also couldn't blame the "ordinary" for the things in front of him.

It was an accident.

Because when he returned to Lingmen City a few days ago, it wasn't a dead city yet.

At least.

He hadn't heard anything wrong here.

The transformation of Xuncheng seemed to happen overnight.

Even Weiyu City, which is the closest to Xuncheng, didn't notice this change.

No, during this, Youqin Honghe thought of another question.

Xue Lanling and Duan Yishuang could also think of the questions he thought of.

——Weiyu City cannot discover this matter.

Because Weiyu City also experienced a drastic change during this period of time.

Duanlongju was destroyed overnight without knowing why, and the real culprit has not been found for a long time.

It seems that all the variables and strange things are gathered in one place, and when gods and ghosts don't know, a big net has been laid.

They decided to head straight into town to find out.

Xuncheng is indeed a small city.

Inside and outside, everything is only so small in size. It takes less than half an hour to ride a horse, and you can already walk around all the big and small places here.

You can even count how many streets, how many restaurants, and how many teahouses there are in this city.

— but there was no one in the city.

Xuncheng is a small town, but the small town is just to make the crowd appear more crowded and look more lively.

But there is no one in Xuncheng today.

Every household closed their doors tightly, and the long streets were spotlessly clean.

This place is indeed like a dead city.

Occasionally, however, they could hear whispered conversations coming from the closed house.

—There are people in this city.

But these people are not willing to come out.

why?

There is a source behind any change.

Youqin Honghe tried to knock on a door, but it only attracted hysterical shouting and cursing from the people in the room, and the wooden door was slammed and seemed to be crumbling.

... something is very wrong here.

You Qin Hong said softly, "Don't tell me you want me to force my way in?"

Xue Lanling said: "It's not impossible."

Youqin Hong said: "Then if there are some peerless masters ambushing inside, wouldn't I be sending myself to death?"

Xue Lanling said: "If you can die, everyone in the world will die that day."

Youqin Honghe cooperated and said: "You wait, I will kick the door open, if there is really a master who wants to fight with me, you can stop it for me, it will never go wrong."

After he said that, he really raised his leg and wanted to kick.

However, before this action was completed, there was a noisy sound from the side of the street.

The three looked sideways, only to see two people striding closer.

A man and a woman, both very young in appearance.

The woman was neatly dressed, with a long whip pinned to her waist.

The man is frowning, his arms are thick and his hands are thick and wide, which is obviously a foreigner's skill in practice.

They and Xue Lanling and the others looked at each other for a few steps away.

The woman clasped her fists first and said, "The three friends came from nowhere, what are their intentions?"

Youqin Honghe straightened his clothes, laughed and said, "If you want to ask someone else a question, you need to report your identity first. I think the two of you don't know this truth."

The woman was startled.

When she wanted to speak again, the people beside her said impatiently: "My name is Meng Yu, and this is my junior sister Hua Yin. We are from Tianhe Mansion in Lingmen City."

Hua Yin could only smile wryly: "Yes."

Youqin Hong said: "You two are so frank, I will speak straight. In the following, Feiqing, these two are my fellow apprentices, small sects, and have never been famous, so I won't say more."

Meng Yu said: "The time is urgent, what are their names, you hurry up and say a name, it will be fake."

You Qin Hong said softly, "This one, Xue Lanlan. This one, Duan Xiaoyi."

His apparently perfunctory words did not dissatisfy the two of Meng Yu. Meng Yu just nodded and said, "The matter here is more complicated. Let's talk in another place."

Hua Yin's expression was a bit strange, she whispered: "Don't ask their identities anymore?"

Meng Yu didn't hide and cover up, but said, "If they have something to do with this matter, they will attack us when we show up."

Hua Yin said: "But just in case—"

Meng Yu shook her head and raised her hand to pat her on the shoulder: "It's not a contingency, we can't just wait here, that friend was injured, the longer it drags on, the worse it will be for us."

After Hua Yin listened, although she was still a little worried, she finally nodded and agreed with Meng Yu's statement.

Meng Yu brought several people into a mansion.

This mansion is very wide, and it should be one of the most prosperous places in Xuncheng.

But apart from the weeds all over the yard, there are no other decorations in the mansion.

It's clearly been deserted for a long time.

Meng Yu first said: "I'll go in and see how he is doing now, Hua Yin, just tell them the whole thing."

Hua Yin said: "Are you really going to say it?"

Meng Yu nodded without any hesitation.

Seeing Meng Yu's figure leave, Hua Yin could only sigh.

She said: "This matter needs to be discussed from half a month ago..."

Half a month ago, a strange thing happened suddenly in Xun City.

Anyone who left Xuncheng would be found lying on the street the next day, their bodies intact, but with a deep knife cut on their necks.

At the beginning, there were only one or two people, but within five days, even those who did not return to the house in time at night would be murdered like this.

On the second day of that incident, more than a dozen corpses with knife wounds were displayed on the street.

However, the person who did this did not deliberately hide himself.

He appeared by himself, threatening that no one in the world could catch him, and that he would slaughter Xuncheng and turn Xuncheng into a dead city.

Hua Yin and Meng Yu were far away in Tianhe Mansion, and received a letter from a friend who was here. When they arrived in a hurry, Xuncheng had become lifeless and lifeless.

Hua Yin said: "However, on the night when Meng Yu and I came here, we saw a chivalrous man fight against that devil. lost his life."

But the devil had a word before him that anyone who leaves Xuncheng and intends to escape will become his dead soul. Heal the wounded warrior.

This is why Meng Yu had to trust them and bet this time.

They can't sit here forever.

We must demand change and find a ray of hope.

Meng Yu quickly made up his mind to come to see them, and did not hide much.

Meng Yu and Hua Yin were indeed from Tianhe Mansion.

Except for the concealment of their relationship, their names and identities are all true.

Hua Yin said in a shy voice: "The devil's sword skills are indeed very good... We really can't beat him, and we dare not fight him desperately. If the three of you are willing to help each other, Meng Yu and I will never forget your kindness and be a benefactor We are also willing to go up the mountain of swords and into the sea of ​​fire."

Youqin Honghe turned his head to look at Xue Lanling's expression.

He smiled lightly and said: "Don't rush to make promises, let us see what the situation of that great knight is like, and it's not too late to make plans."

When they entered the room, Meng Yu was sitting at the table and sighing.

Sitting across the table from Meng Yu was a young man in brocade clothes.

He was well dressed, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and his face was a bit serious and indifferent for his age.

Hua Yin brought them into the house, Meng Yu was not surprised, just said: "This is what I said, the new friends."

He stepped out of the way to teach them to see each other better.

You Qin Honghe stood at the front.

However, he will see that face, those familiar eyebrows and eyes, and before he can speak, Xue Lanling has already moved.

It was a thin blade that was extremely fast and extremely cold.

It once flew high, pierced its throat, and took its life away, and it also stuck to the side of its neck silently, showing its unparalleled murderous intent, its sharpness of instantly killing people.

Xue Lanling's eyes were heavy, his movements were sharp, so straightforward that no one could resist.Even before they recovered their senses, Xue Lanling had already approached Young Master Jinyi.

He clamped the man's jaw with one hand, and the cold and transparent thin blade was also pressed against the man's neck.

Hua Yin exclaimed, and Meng Yu immediately stepped forward.

You Qin Hong and Han Xiao stopped Meng Yu, and said leisurely: "Why worry, this junior of mine is very measured, and he will never hurt this chivalrous man."

Xue Lanling did not cut the skin on his neck with this thin blade.

He looked down, condescending, looking at this extremely familiar face, thinking of the endless and disgusting hatred in the past seven years.

Xue Lanling smiled lightly.

He said softly: "Li Shaoxia, you really look like your father."

The author says:

I will be very busy three times in the next few days, and I may stop updating. By the way, I will save manuscripts, and I will enter a V to earn a little money in the next week or so.

Li Xingchen appeared.

Yes, Li Xingchen has a face very similar to his father's.

Youqin Honghe: Seeing this face gives me a headache and nausea.

Leader: Seeing this face makes me want to kill someone.

Xiao Yi: I am very happy to see this face, meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign land.

Li Xingchen: Is that why he came to beat me and you were watching?

Xiao Yi: I didn't react.

Li Xingchen: Now that you've realized it, why don't you stop it?

Xiaoyi: I'm not feeling well.

Li Xingchen:? ? ? ?

Youqin Honghe: (Shocked) You still ride a horse when you are not feeling well, don’t you want that?

Xiaoyi: I'm not, I haven't, I'm just a little tired!
