On the right side of the river bank, a masked woman in black was covered in blood and held a long knife. Chased by more than a dozen people in Jianghu costumes, she continued to stand out from the encirclement and ran along the river bank.
The woman was holding a baby who was still in its infancy. At this time, he was crying loudly. There were countless bloody spots on her body, big and small, and it seemed a bit difficult to run at this moment.
"There are often vendettas here, you two should go in as soon as possible. I will stay away from the boat, so as not to be involved and suffer." The boatman was not very afraid, and instead persuaded the two boldly.
"Jianghu vendetta?" Lin Xin became interested, because he soon entered the Xianzong directly, so he had never been in touch with the real worldly Jianghu. Seeing it now, he felt novelty.
"Yao Qingxue, in such a situation, do you still want to escape?" A white-haired old man with a childlike face suddenly landed lightly in front of the woman, blocking her way.
"Old monster Tu?" The woman stopped abruptly, and was immediately overtaken by more than ten people behind her, surrounding her. The scimitar in her hand trembled slightly, and faint groans came out. The surrounding people were restrained, and they did not attack for a while.
"Yao Qingxue, killing my nephew and letting you escape just like that, doesn't it make me look incompetent?"
"Then what do you want?" The woman's voice was cold.
"It's only natural to pay back debts, let alone human life?" The old man said coldly, "Your Yuanyang Sword has been famous for a long time, just take a look, is my old guy's eagle claw hand stronger, or your Yuanyang Saber is more powerful?"
Lin Xin squinted at the old man.
"Looks like a master."
The yellow shirt is dumb.
"Of course a master, look at his temples. Foreign masters focus on eyesight first. Those who have poor eyesight will lose half of it first. Therefore, real foreign masters always have high temples."
Lin Xin looked carefully, and sure enough, he saw that old monster Tu's temples were bulging high, and his hands were sharp and sharp, like the claws of a goshawk.
"I don't know how strong these martial arts people are outsiders." He whispered.
"How strong is it? Have you never fought against them?" Huang Shan asked strangely.
"Not much." Lin Xin shook his head. Seeing that there is already ready to start. His heart moved slightly, just to test the power of inner energy.
"let me try."
As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out and took out a small ingot of silver from his cuff, and his internal energy rushed into the silver ingot. He lightly raised his hand.
laugh
The silver ingot flew out suddenly, whizzing away like an arrow.
That old monster stretched out his claws, and was attacking the woman in a rush, searching extremely fiercely, with extremely fast power and speed.
Hear the wind. With one move, he ruthlessly forced the woman's scimitar back, and grabbed towards the whistling sound.
"Who?" He yelled sharply, and grabbed at the direction of the sound with decades of eagle claw skills.
He has practiced Eagle Claw Kung Fu for decades, and his external kung fu has reached the peak. Once he scratches it, hard wood and stones can be easily crushed. It is rare to meet an opponent in the nearby rivers and lakes. If he hadn't grown old, he would have already been titled King of Eagle Claws.
Bang
The eagle's claws grabbed a small object from the front.
With a muffled sound, Old Monster Tu's body shook, and he took two steps back. Surprised.
He took a closer look. He was shocked to find that the thing he called just now was just a small piece of silver ingot. Has tumbled to the ground, shattered into finer pieces of silver.
Looking in the direction of the silver ingots, he immediately fixed his eyes on the small boat on the distant river.
There were two people standing on the boat, both dressed in white, with long hair sticking up and hairpins stuck in them.
"It's not that I haven't seen a master of the inner family, but at this distance, I can repel me with a small piece of silver ingot..." Tu Laoguai's expression changed.
"Let's go" he waved his hand, and the startled subordinates around hurriedly followed, and quickly ran away towards the bank and forest.
The masked woman stood vigilantly holding the knife for a while until everyone left, until she saw that Old Monster Tu had no sign of turning around. Only then did she turn around and pay respects to the fishing boat.
"Little girl, thank you two for saving me."
Lin Xin didn't expect that he could have such power just by randomly injecting inner energy and throwing out a small piece of silver ingot.
"The guest is actually a legendary internal master, so disrespectful and disrespectful," the boatman also praised repeatedly. "I should have thought about it a long time ago, except for the masters of the inner family. Who can easily dance a sword at such a small position in the stern."
Huang Shan looked at him with a half-smile.
"Couldn't Junior Brother have taken a fancy to that woman? I think she has a graceful figure. Even if her face is not beautiful, she must not be too bad."
"Senior brother, you're joking." Lin Xin was just testing the use of internal energy. Obviously, it can be injected into other items to shoot out as described in the novels he read before, and the power is extraordinary.
The fishing boat went smoothly. Both ignored the woman and quickly forgot her.
The three of them soon arrived at a town, changed to a bigger boat, and continued to head downstream.
Along the way, there were often fights and fights along the riverside, and Lin Xin would fight out with stones and wood blocks from time to time to try his internal power.
Lin Xin also tried to hunt and kill some of the ferocious beasts he encountered, and tried to see if the monster talisman reacted, but unfortunately there was no movement at all.
He also chose some of the most powerful people from the rivers and lakes he met along the way, and he would directly hunt and kill those who were not used to their behavior.
Wuyan swordsmanship is almost certain to die with the sword.
But the death of these people didn't change the monster rune at all, and the previous mutation never happened again.
Lin Xin had no choice but to restrain his thoughts.
All the way down the river, according to the threat points recorded on the map, he also went to a point along the way, where there is a giant wolf called blue back wolf, which belongs to the key threat level point on the map.
Lin Xin went hunting along the way and killed several blue-backed wolves, only to find that this one-meter-high blue-backed wolf is a trouble and threat to ordinary people and even two-level inner masters. For the innate masters who have already reached the top level, it is nothing to worry about. Needless to say the use of talisman swords, even the ordinary Wuyan swordsmanship can beat these giant wolves without the power to resist. You only need to worry about the consumption of internal energy, and there is no safety problem at all.
And the demon talisman naturally didn't respond.
Seeing it in his eyes, Huang Shan probably guessed that Lin Xin wanted to find a powerful guy to kill, guessing that he might be trying to hone his sword skills.
One day on the boat, the three of them sat on the deck of the boat and played chess. There were three people and the boatman in the whole boat, and they were hired by them directly, so they could speak freely.
"There are almost no powerful creatures in Yangjian. Only some demon kings will occupy the vicinity of the sect. Most of them are fellow friends who are related to the seniors of the sect. They will raise some powerful creatures. But here is far away from the fairy sect. It is impossible to have creatures of that level."
Huang Shirt persuaded in a low voice.
Lin Xin also tried too much along the way. Feeling cold.
"It seems that us innate masters hardly see decent opponents outside the sect."
"That's natural." Huangshan nodded, "The people stationed outside are all official disciples. Generally, official disciples are mostly practicing Qi, and it's normal not to go out for a few years. In addition to doing tasks, almost all innate masters are in the sect. Most of them also gather in the bustling big cities to enjoy the prosperity and wealth, so how can they go to these remote wild places. Besides, even if you meet Xiantian, with the skills of your juniors, unless you are on the eighth floor or above, or if you are unlucky and meet formal disciples, you will still be afraid of them. ?”
Lin Xin nodded.
Xiao Lingling beside her is also curious.
"Brother Lin, what are you doing looking for a strong opponent?" After so many days of being together, she also felt relieved at this moment, relying on Lin Xin with peace of mind, and putting her heart and soul on him.
Lin Xin smiled. "I just thought that I could find some powerful opponents to hone my swordsmanship. I never thought it would be like this." He still didn't say anything about the demon talisman. This matter is too important, not because Xiao Lingling cannot be trusted, but just to prevent In case, the fewer people who know, the better.
"Junior Brother, you really underestimate yourself." Huang Shan laughed. "Any one of the official disciples can suppress one side. In the territory of the Great Song Dynasty, dozens of official disciples can guard it. Then you can imagine how big the area each official disciple is in charge of."
Lin Xin nodded.
"At least each one governs hundreds of small cities."
"That's right. If there is no foundation-building cultivation, many people will have to spend a long time just traveling, and they simply don't bother to meet. They seldom return to the sect, and many of them simply die in the station. Between two formal disciples Even those who have been difficult to meet for decades, mostly rely on flying birds to communicate." Huang Shan explained.
"So, what should I do if I want to find a strong enough hunting opponent?" Lin Xin put down a chess piece and asked.
"Hunting?" Huang Shan was slightly taken aback, and did not ask Lin Xin why he would ask such a weird question. "As a congenital master, you have already dominated one side's strength, but there are so many masters in the sect, you can't show it. When it comes to the local area, even in the big city of Song Dynasty, you are also a first-class master."
"All around here are fellow clans who are stationed together. Formal disciples cannot fight each other, otherwise they will be severely punished, ranging from abolishing their cultivation base to losing their lives." He added.
"So, don't think about your request at all. Unless occasionally there are magic monks who sneak into your jurisdiction, or strange creatures after the sun membrane is leaked. But the chances of this are too small, and those dangerous places have the most powerful Official disciples are stationed, and it's not your turn to do it."
Lin Xin was a little stunned.
"Then we can only practice hard and honestly, without much actual combat?"
"You still like fighting, don't you?" Huang Shirt gave him a weird look. "Struggling out of registered disciples, official disciples who are willing to work hard, most of them live like this. However, in recent years, there have been frequent changes in the Demon Sect. A few days ago, I heard that our official disciples were also attacked by the Demon Sect one after another, and lost Many people, some masters who have been stationed for decades are missing."
"This is the chance for us to make up for it, right?" Lin Xin understood.
"Yes."
"So, if you want to fight, there are plenty of opportunities. It happens that there are a lot of troubles recently." Huang Shirt laughed.
Lin Xin suddenly thought of the Red Mansion Witch again. After injuring him, he didn't know if he escaped alive or not. It's best to escape.
He thought to himself, otherwise who would he turn to to pay off that claw? .
