Looking down from a high place, you can see that the entire Yu City is shrouded in darkness. There are no stars in the night sky. Even the moonlight is obscured by the dim black mist. The inner and outer cities are like two distinct banks.
Many places in the inner city are still brightly lit, and some flower streets are even bustling with activity, but the outer city is dark and dead, with almost no lights visible, and everything as far as the eye can see is pitch black.
in.
A corner of the vast Nancheng District.
In the darkness, under the looming dim moonlight, two figures were fighting.
“Hey, it was just a matter of withdrawing some money, and it attracted the dignified chief police officer to hunt him down personally. How honored is it that I, Tang Quan, am so honored?”
One of the figures was dressed in black and looked a little thin. The moonlight that occasionally passed by reflected his face. There was an obvious black mark on the right cheek, and the whole person was laughing strangely.
The person who was chasing him at the rear was wearing a white flying fish suit, which was extremely conspicuous under the moonlight. His face was cold and pretty. Under the occasional moonlight, he looked like a fairy from the Moon Palace, but he was from Nancheng District. The famous Chief Chaplain Xu Hongyu.
“Money is nothing more than an external possession, but some things, even just looking at them, can cause serious trouble. You shouldn’t understand this truth.”
Xu Hongyu spoke softly, and with a single click, the whole person was like an afterimage, approaching Tang Quan’s back in an instant, and a soft sword in his hand stirred up a dim moonlight.
Tang Quan swung his sword backwards to parry, but he only managed to block it slightly, and then he couldn’t resist. There were several holes in the black robe, but a piece of rough iron-colored soft armor underneath was also exposed.
“I haven’t seen anything I shouldn’t have seen, why should you accuse me unjustly?”
Tang Quan said with an ugly expression.
“Maybe.”
Xu Hongyu said with some loss of interest.
Some things, not to mention actually seeing them, even if there is only a possibility of seeing them, for some people, they are a disaster that will never be left behind. They will definitely be traced to the end. Even she, the chief police officer, was forcibly carried away. To do hard work.
Seeing that Xu Hongyu was unwavering and her swordsmanship did not hide her murderous intent, Tang Quan secretly complained in his heart. He originally looked down on this Nancheng District Chief Police Officer and felt that a woman, mostly based on her background and position, was not that big. However, once they fought, he discovered that he had underestimated the Chief Chaosi. His body tempering skills had probably reached the point of “Yi Jin”, and his agility in body skills and strength in sword skills were far beyond that. Far stronger than him who is still stuck at the ‘meat training’ level.
even.
The opponent’s sword technique is also flawless. It is the Zhongkanshui branch of the Eight Branches of Qian, Tian, Kun and Earth. It has been practiced to a perfect state. The flowing water sword force is swayed wantonly. If it weren’t for the fact that this sword technique pays more attention to defense. Without killing, even if he was wearing an iron scale armor, he would have been dead on the ground long ago, but even so, it was difficult to get rid of the opponent’s entanglement.
After a few more moves, Tang received seven or eight wounds all over his body, some of which were blocked by the iron scale armor, but the skin on his legs, shoulders, upper arms and other places were all torn open, and the wounds were deep and terrifying.
“Xu Hongyu! You really want to have trouble with me!”
Tang Quan became anxious and roared angrily.
Xu Hongyu didn’t answer, and continued to move forward with the sword. The sword light reflected the moonlight, and the sword thrust out. It was obviously a very soft sword, but at this moment it was like running water like a rainbow, and the continuous drizzle formed a line, hard. Tang Quan’s sword was broken.
laugh! The iron scale armor that could withstand the sword could not block the sword and was forcefully penetrated! Tang Quan spurted a mouthful of blood, his face was miserable, but there was a fierce look in his eyes. He turned his right hand, took out a strange black ball from nowhere, and threw it down fiercely.
Xu Hongyu’s face changed suddenly, and without hesitation, she touched the ground and stepped back more than ten meters in an instant.
Bang! The black ball fell to the ground and exploded. In an instant, a gray mist burst out and spread around, covering an area of nearly ten meters in radius. Some nearby weeds were spread by the gray mist and withered rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye. .
“Corpse poison jade?”
Xu Hongyu’s face looked a little ugly.
It’s just that now that the imperial court has declined, its control over various places is far less than it used to be. Vicious artifacts like this that were once strictly prohibited have also appeared, and there is really chaos and chaos.
The gray fog filled the air, and Xu Hongyu didn’t dare to get close.
When the gray mist dimmed a little, she swung her sword out and tore apart some of the mist, but Tang Quan was no longer in it.
“You can’t escape far.”
Xu Hongyu’s eyes were cold as she determined the direction and moved forward.
Tang Quan was hit by her sword. The sword penetrated through the chest and abdomen. For ordinary people, it was a fatal injury. Even if the body tempering method was practiced to a certain level, it would still be a serious injury. Even if it was handled carefully, it might not be cured. If you don’t find it, It only takes a moment to treat the injury locally, but it can be fatal.
……
Under night.
The streets and alleys were silent and dim, with no lights visible. At this time, the moonlight was completely shrouded in clouds and fog, making the streets and alleys almost so dark that you couldn’t even see your fingers.
In one of the alleys, Tang Quan staggered forward, one hand tightly covering the wound between his chest and abdomen.
“Bitch, when I get the chance, I’ll give you to you sooner or later…”
He gritted his teeth, his eyes full of resentment.
The wounds on his shoulders and legs were not bad, although they were also very deep. However, he had almost perfected the ‘meat training’ step in the body tempering method. It was very easy to forcefully close the muscles and temporarily stop the bleeding and suppress the injuries, but the chest and abdomen This sword strike was no small matter. Even if he avoided important organs as much as possible, the damage was still serious. Now he doesn’t even dare to use force, for fear of tearing the wound and leaving it completely untreatable.
He really couldn’t run far, and if he didn’t take care of his wounds, he wouldn’t be able to hold on for half an hour before he passed out.
Under a dim moonlight.
With this little moonlight, Tang Quan reluctantly glanced around the streets and alleys, and his eyes fell on two very inconspicuous shabby low houses not far away from him. At a glance, he knew they belonged to a poor family.
Tang Quan stumbled over and came to the door. He pushed the door open first. There was a bolt inside. Without much hesitation, he took out a piece of wire from his arms with a shake of his left hand and dexterously stretched it into the crack of the door. , the door bolt was quietly opened.
Then he carefully opened the door and walked inside.
But just when the door was halfway open.
Changes occur suddenly.
puff.
A handful of white ash suddenly splashed out from the dark door.
This time, he was caught off guard. Tang Quan was originally careful not to make any noise, and even focused more on the outside and other directions. He didn’t expect that something like this happened when the door was half open. In fact, this trick He was a great thief who had already abandoned his low-level methods, but he didn’t expect to suddenly bump into him at this time.
Tang Quan hurriedly closed his eyes and retreated, but he still took a step too slowly. A small amount of white ash entered his eyes, and he immediately felt burning pain in his eyes. It was probably some kind of lime, if not poisonous powder.
