Chapter 88 Fighting Stars Shifting Horror Power (8000 thanks to readers who do not exist for rewarding No. 0)
After Xu Bai finished speaking, he walked out of the window.
Yun Zihai thought for a while, picked up the brush and book in his hand, and followed behind Xu Bai.
Outside the window, the moonlight was bright and the night was as dark as ink. At this moment, a few cool breezes blew.
In the open space outside, five men in black were standing there, each carrying a different weapon.
"It seems that the person you offended is really determined. He sent someone to assassinate him some time ago, and now he is here again." Xu Bai turned his head to look at Yun Zihai, with a mocking look in his eyes.
Yun Zihai helplessly spread his hands and said: "There is no way, they are obsessed with their obsession."
Several men in black looked at each other, seeing that these two people were still talking and laughing happily, they all showed a little weirdness.
"Do it!"
The man in black headed by him spoke first, and the other four followed suit.
The man in black who spoke first raised his hand, and threw many throwing knives over.
The angle of this throwing knife is extremely tricky, blocking all escape routes.
The other four people also came forward. They stood in their respective positions, looking very strange, but the offensive in their hands was not slow at all.
Each person's attack will cause different changes, and the other three seem to be cooperating with the attacking person.
"Be careful, it's a formation." Yun Zihai saw the sign, raised his hand and wrote a word "kill", reminding Xu Bai.
After the word “kill” appeared, it fell into the book, and a page emerged, heading towards the man in black who threw the throwing knife, at a very fast speed, hovering above the man in black.
The man in black who used the flying knife watched the page fall, and suddenly raised his hand, and more than a dozen flying knives appeared from his body, surrounding his body, resisting the page falling from the sky.
At this time, the attack of the four finally arrived, but their target was not Yun Zihai, but Xu Bai was the priority.
The continuous offensive, interlocking, really fit Yun Zihai's reminder just now, very similar to the power of the formation.
"Your enemy has a lot of tricks." A black light rose from Xu Bai's body, and the Vajra Heart Demon Physique was used.
At the same time, the effect of reversing yin and yang and chaos is exerted.
Those weapons seemed to be confused, a little slow, but finally fell on the black light.
"The mind is still a little low." Xu Bai thought to himself.
But the problem is not big, it is enough to deal with a few of them.
Can't break the diamond heart demon body, he doesn't even want to pull out the knife.
Holding up their hands, they drew a circle in the air. Under the agitation of their true energy, the four people's swords were skewed one after another, and they turned their heads to stab their own people.
The stars move.
"Chi~"
These four men in black were obviously meeting them for the first time, and they never expected to have such a weird move, so they were pierced through by their companions' weapons before they even had time to hold back their strength.
"Go with peace of mind."
The blade flashed, and four heads fell to the ground, rolling around.
On the other side, Yun Zihai flicked the brush lightly, and the page seemed to be extremely heavy, dividing the man in black from beginning to end.
In the blink of an eye, these five people turned into five corpses, and their deaths were quite miserable.
The fight between them was naturally audible, and soon attracted the attention of the left-behind yamen. Xu Bai heard the noise not far away, gave Yun Zihai a look, and returned to Yun Zihai's room.
A moment later, the yamen servants rushed out and saw five more corpses on the ground, and they all showed surprise.
"Clean up here, don't panic." Yun Zihai seemed to have gotten used to it, and waved his sleeves.
The yamen servants soon realized that it was really rare for the county magistrate to be assassinated again.
Never heard of it. This is the first time they have seen the county magistrate being assassinated consecutively after taking office.
Of course, the magistrates of the county had spoken, so they naturally didn't dare to say more. A few yamen servants stepped forward and quickly disposed of the corpses in the yard.
After disposing of the corpse, Yun Zihai returned to the room, closed the door, and saw Xu Bai sitting inside waiting for him, he couldn't help laughing bitterly.
"That's good tea, I brought it from the academy, don't drink it and waste it."
On the table, the pot of tea that Xu Bai first poured was already cold.
"The strength of this wave of assassins is mediocre, and they seem to be here to play." Xu Bai said with a smile as if he had never heard what Yun Zihai said.
Yun Zihai said helplessly: "That's because they didn't consider that you were here. The assassins who came this time were all of the seventh-rank strength, but they were extremely restrained. They harassed me from a distance with flying knives and continuous formations. I If you are attacked by them, you will definitely be caught off guard and have no time to write."
Xu Bai just smiled at this, as if he didn't hear it.
From the beginning to the end, Yun Zihai was quite calm. Except for the first panic when the first few flying knives flew in, he didn't panic at all other times.
This guy is hiding his strength, or showing weakness.
At the beginning, Xu Bai got the news that Yun Zihai was assassinated and injured, but now he saw Yun Zihai, that calmness did not look like he was injured. He reckoned that the fake news that was released at that time, To attract more people to come.
In terms of fishing skills, this guy is very good.
"Actually, what I hoped more was that the five Luoxi thieves came to chase me down, but unfortunately, for some reason, they didn't come." Yun Zihai said with regret: "After all, when I first entered the rivers and lakes, those five robbers Guy hurt me once."
"Five Los Angeles Pirates?" Xu Bai was slightly interested.
Yun Zihai nodded and said: "Five murderous chickens and dogs, one of them seeks good fortune and avoids evil, which is the foundation of their survival, the other is good at laying Gu and poison before making a move, and the other two use one sword and one sword. The coordination is pretty subtle, but the last person is good at confusing."
Xu Bai: "..."
It feels so familiar, isn't this the same few people he killed in Yinyi before? It seems to be quite suitable.
Of course, now is not the time to discuss this, and he just asked casually just now.
"You should tell me what your identity is." Xu Baidao: "Allegiance to the sixth prince? Or who?"
When it came to business, he stopped being sloppy, and stared straight at Yun Zihai, waiting for Yun Zihai to say relevant information.
"The sixth prince wants the financial resources in the hands of the ninth princess. He will not give up dealing with it, but with him, he really can't command me." Yun Zihai said slowly.
Speaking of the sixth prince, his tone was disdainful, as if he looked down on him.
"As for who I am loyal to, in today's world, I only pledge allegiance to that one." Yun Zihai arched his hands, facing the direction of the capital, and said.
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes slightly, and tapped the table lightly with his hands.
Who was that one from Yun Zihai just now? He already had an idea in his mind.
Even the sixth prince, Yun Zihai, doesn't like him. The answer is already very clear.
"It turned out that His Majesty the Emperor sent you here. It seems that you killed the prince, not only did not make His Majesty angry, but you got a secret job." Xu Bai leaned back slightly, leaning on the back of the chair.
"No, no, no, the eighth prince I killed really deserved his death, not only because he harmed my family, but also because he did something he shouldn't have done." Yun Zihai shook his head repeatedly.
Xu Bai stood up, ready to leave.
This operation made Yun Zihai suspicious. He couldn't figure out why Xu Bai wanted to leave at this time.
"You..." Yun Zihai was full of doubts.
"It's enough to know your identity, I don't want to hear anything else." Xu Bai came to the door, ready to leave.
It is better not to listen to this kind of royal secret. It is the safest thing to keep track of your own progress bar.
He was just here to find out Yun Zihai's identity, as long as he wasn't the one who framed him, then forget it.
As for the others, I'm not interested.
"Brother Xu, wait a minute." Yun Zihai hurriedly stopped him, and said, "I heard Liu Xu said that Brother Xu was a particularly **** man at certain times, and there is another problem, everyone is from the world. Yu'er, already in the rivers and lakes, it is very difficult to get out."
Xu Bai stopped and just stared at Yun Zihai without saying a word.
"If you can help me, I can tell the current sage what brother Xu wants at that time. Even the precious books in the imperial treasury can be obtained for senior brother, for example, brother Xu's favorite Buddhist scriptures." Yun Opened his mouth again from the sea.
Xu Bai fell into deep thought.
Yun Zihai stopped talking, and was waiting for Xu Bai's reply, but there was a look of anticipation in his eyes.
"How much." Xu Bai said.
Yun Zihai was taken aback.
He didn't understand what it meant.
Xu Bai raised the corner of his mouth: "I mean how much can I give?"
Yun Zihai finally came to his senses, raised a finger, and said, "There is absolutely no problem with this book."
"The water is still burning in my house, you let me go back." Xu Bai said without hesitation.
Are you kidding, a book can solve the problem?
There are too few that do not exist.
Need to add money.
"Don't, don't, don't, two, two fifth-level cheat books." Yun Zihai stretched out his hand and compared the word "two".
"Only the fifth level..." Xu Bai felt very disgusted: "Even the prince is dead, so just give this little thing. I'm afraid you didn't take it privately."
"Brother Xu, do I look like that kind of person?" Yun Zihai said helplessly: "The reason why the eighth prince died is because he exposed himself, and the thing behind him is really only worth so much, let me choose The fifth level, plus a government order at that time, you can't do the government order, I will give you all the books, I am already very sincere."
When he said this, he no longer had the temperament of a scholar. Instead, he was like a businessman, bargaining with Xu Bai very patiently.
Xu Bai rubbed his chin and said, "You talk about it first, but I'll say it here in advance. If it's difficult, I won't do it."
I didn’t agree just now because there was no benefit, but now that there is benefit, you can still think about it.
Two fifth-level books, if he can get two fifth-level mental methods, among other things, he can reach fifth-level strength with just one book.
Not to mention the two books, who can say clearly what the state will be at that time.
This thing can be converted into a qualitative improvement.
When the benefits are large enough, it is worth taking a little risk.
Xu Bai really wanted to say, it smells so good.
Of course, if things are particularly dangerous, he can think of other ways in the middle.
"Then... let me tell you first, why did I come?" Yun Zihai said.
Before tonight, he never thought of going to Xu Bai for help, but after tonight, he completely changed his mind.
"It seems that Junior Sister Liu still has too little experience, so she is not very accurate in judging people." Yun Zihai thought to himself.
He still remembered that Liu Xu told him that although Xu Bai was at the eighth rank, his strength was far from the eighth rank, at least around the seventh rank.
Now it seems that no matter where the level 7 assassins are, they can easily kill them even if they face the assassins of the seventh level just now.
Of course, Liu Xu praised Xu Bai very much, and his words were full of praise, which Yun Zihai agreed with.
This young man is even better than some old Jiang Hu, both in character and strength, are extraordinary.
Must be friends.
Not only because of this mission, but also for the future.
Thinking about this, Yun Zihai explained what happened one by one.
"The thing is..."
Suddenly in the room, the voice of Yun Zihai sounded.
After Yun Zihai finished speaking, Xu Bai leaned on the chair, propped his chin with his hands, and frowned tightly.
It's not easy.
According to Yun Zihai, the reason why the Eighth Prince died was not because he killed Yun Zihai's family, but because he colluded with evil spirits and heretics.
In the Great Chu Kingdom, demons and heretics are the targets of attack, which means the same thing as those monsters.
The so-called evil heretics are those people who make troubles and make troubles.
For example, the blacksmith and blacksmith couples I met the first time, although they were bandits, they were also classified as demons and heretics.
The eight princes colluded with evil heretics, and there were even some monsters, so it was even more dangerous.
This is like a superposition state. When the evil spirits and heretics are added to the monsters, when the two are combined, there is no other way but death.
Just at that time, Yun Zihai's family was also kidnapped, and even died in the hands of the Eighth Prince, and then Yun Zihai revealed the fact that he had killed the Eighth Prince, pretending to be punished, and came to the Sheng County.
"Before the eighth prince died, he burned a letter." Yun Zihai said: "Actually, I don't know anything, let alone the contents of the letter, but His Majesty released the news, which made many people think that I knew what was in it." content, so you know why I was assassinated."
Xu Bai nodded, and said: "If a person takes few shots, he will show fewer flaws, but if he takes more shots, he will have more flaws. You want to dig out what's behind."
Yun Zihai admitted without hesitation, in fact, there is nothing to hide, since they all plan to cooperate, of course it is.
"You use yourself as bait, just for two books and an official, is it worth it?" Xu Bai asked with interest.
Whoever is the bait, of course, is Yun Zihai, and whoever is the fisherman, of course, is His Majesty the Emperor in the capital.
As long as there is a secret that must not be known in that destroyed letter, then fish will definitely be caught.
"I want to be an official, but it's not all for being an official. Brother Xu, you know that although the Great Chu Kingdom is still relatively stable, there are turmoil inside, and most of the people live in poverty, just like this county. "Yun Zihai came to the window and pointed to the night outside.
"On the surface, the streets are prosperous, but behind the scenes, I know better than anyone what kind of life most of them are living in. Even the bustling county where I live can't achieve enough food for every household."
"If I can be an official of a county, I can protect the peace of a county. If I am an official of a prefecture, I can protect the tranquility of a prefecture. Reading and reading, this is called reading."
"It's ridiculous that today's royal family is intriguing with each other. Who can control the life and death of the people? I'm weak, and I can do my best."
Having said this, Yun Zihai turned around, his tone became agitated.
"Before I agreed, Your Majesty once told me that the article I wrote at that time had the potential to shock the world. If I can complete this task, give me the right. Except for Your Majesty, even the royal family will be under my jurisdiction." , and have no right to interfere with me."
The room fell into silence, and a needle could be heard.
After listening to Yun Zihai's words, Xu Bai felt that there was still a big difference between Yun Zihai and Liu Xu.
Liu Xu has a strong sense of justice, but once encountering unfair things, she will resort to force, such as what happened to Xiaoyue.
When manpower is exhausted, let alone in this world.
Therefore, he set a small goal in his heart, at least within his jurisdiction.
In this plan, the emperor is actually the smartest.
Not only let Yun Zihai be the bait, but also get a talent.
As for the rights mentioned, to be honest, the release and withdrawal are just a matter of the emperor's words, and there is no need for any process at all.
Give power to Yun Zihai, but if you have any ideas, you can take them back at any time. It's very simple, just like eating and drinking water.
Is Yun Zihai aware of this?
Of course it is clear.
But what he lacks is such an opportunity. Even if he knows that the emperor can take it back at any time, he still has to fight for this opportunity.
"Tell me, how do you want me to help you?" Xu Bai said.
He has already understood the general process, and now he just needs to know how to proceed. It is better to ask clearly first.
Yun Zihai scratched his head and looked embarrassed: "Brother Xu, to be honest, I don't know how to help, because this is my temporary idea."
He was telling the truth. After seeing Xu Bai's strength tonight, he came up with this idea. Originally, he didn't intend to drag Xu Bai down.
So in the short term, there really aren't any plans.
Xu Bai said: "If you have a plan, you can come to me at any time. If I am not in the county, I am in Yinyi."
Yun Zihai nodded quickly, making it clear.
The two of them had almost finished their conversation. It was getting late, and Xu Bai didn't linger, he went out directly and walked towards the **** agency.
He has no plans to go back to Yinyi, the tree over there has already died, so he wants to find a quiet place, finish the book in his hand first, and then talk about other things.
It will take time to get this book from the bookstore, and Xu Bai is very clear that his current situation is very complicated.
Who would have imagined that in a small and remote county, there would be multiple forces involved.
Qingxue sent by the Ninth Princess is one of them, the Yun family from the Sixth Prince's side is also one, there is also Yun Zihai who represents the emperor, and a group of demons and heretics who specialize in dealing with Yun Zihai.
There are pits all around.
Let’s improve our strength first.
Thinking of this, his pace became faster and faster.
It was already very late at this time, and there were not many people on the road. Except for the sound of the watch not far away, the surrounding area was quiet.
From the Yamen Backguard Bureau, you will pass Chunyu Pavilion.
Since what happened last time, the door of Chunyu Pavilion has also been sealed, and no one dares to come over, let alone take down this site.
After all, there are too many murders here. If ordinary people stay inside, they will probably get sick from fright.
When passing Chunyu Pavilion, Xu Bai just took a glance at it from a distance, and was about to continue on his way.
Unexpectedly, before he could take two steps, a voice suddenly sounded in Chunyu Pavilion.
The sound is very subtle, but it can be heard, it is the sound of fighting.
"Isn't there no one else? How could there be the sound of fighting?" Xu Bai thought secretly.
Although the sound of fighting was very soft, he could hear it clearly.
Normally, he might not take a look at it, but this time is different from the past. There are too many things happening recently, and he is worried that there is another pit waiting for him.
After all, the sixth prince can even be used to set things up, so maybe there will be some stumbling blocks.
Xu Bai thought for a while, then walked towards Chunyu Pavilion.
…
As he got closer, the sound of fighting gradually became louder. Even though the sound was heard by ordinary people, it was as small as the chirping of insects and birds, but Xu Bai was not an ordinary person, so he could hear it clearly.
When he came to the door of Chunyu Pavilion, he found that the seal on it had been torn.
Gently pushed the door open a crack, and through the crack, he saw the scene in Chunyu Pavilion.
A group of figures swayed inside, wearing all kinds of clothes, revealing clothes, and there was a faint fragrance coming out.
But don't look at the revealing clothes, plus the fragrance, it's not fragrant here, because these figures are scarred.
The strangle marks on the neck, the bloodstains all over the face, the protruding eyeballs, the protruding tongue, and the horrible death scenes, going back and forth in Chunyu Pavilion.
After a person dies, there will be a chance to turn into a strange one.
There were dozens of girls in Chunyu Pavilion, all of them were killed by Yang Chang at that time, and they died with resentment, and the torture they suffered was unbearable.
The probability of being able to become weird is also gradually expanding.
And in the middle, a beautiful girl in ordinary clothes is dancing the silver thorn in her hand, eradicating the weirdness in front of her.
"Is she here?" Xu Bai frowned.
He didn't expect to meet Qingxue in Chunyu Pavilion, and Qingxue's condition is very bad now.
If it is just ordinary people who become weird, they will be killed if they are killed. With Qingxue's seventh-rank strength, it is not very difficult to kill, but the situation is different.
On the second floor of this building, there is a man in black, whose appearance is not clear.
The weirdos are all attacking unconsciously, and they are all besieging Qingxue now, which is probably the reason why she came in first.
The second floor is relatively safe, and the man in black is making trouble.
The man in black held a lot of copper coins in his hand, one by one, and flew towards Qingxue at a tricky angle.
The man in black is not weak. After all, he can severely damage Qingxue. Coupled with the weird surroundings, Qingxue's situation is even more pessimistic.
Already injured, coupled with the battle tonight, thick sweat appeared on his forehead, and the strength in his body became weaker and weaker, and he was about to be unable to hold on.
Qingxue didn't expect that, she just came to investigate, and the man in black didn't give up, and wanted to kill her.
The situation in front of me is very dangerous, and it is a close call.
But she didn't know how to deal with it at all, because she was in a desperate situation and could not avoid it.
In normal times, she could still escape, but now, there are still weird things around to stop her.
If you run away, you will definitely create obstacles.
At that time, if you are delayed a little bit, you will be doomed.
what to do?
Qingxue was anxious, showing her flaws, and was hit by another copper coin, and took two steps back.
Outside the door, Xu Bai watched the man in black use the hidden weapon, his expression gradually sank.
This technique is all too familiar to him.
—Maple leaves are like rain.
The current situation can be guessed with a little guesswork.
This man in black is definitely the one who framed him.
"There is a way to heaven if you don't go, and there is no way to **** to cast your own money." Xu Bai reached into the copper coins and grabbed a handful in his hand.
The man in black probably didn't dare to use a lot of copper coins because he was afraid of being disturbed and weird, but he didn't worry about it.
Dare to frame me, I will let you know why the flowers are so popular.
Xu Bai pushed the angle of the door slightly wider, and then all the copper coins in his right hand hit the man in black.
The copper coin is covered with black light, with a whistling sound, powerful.
The man in black was planning to slowly consume Qingxue to death, but now, his mentality is different.
The sense of danger spread throughout the body, and when the man in black raised his head, he saw black lights all over his eyes.
From the corner of his eye, he saw Xu Bai. Although his face was covered and his expression could not be seen clearly, he could see the surprise in his eyes.
After throwing out the hidden weapon, Xu Bai drew out the ghost knife from his waist.
Si Xun used his physical skills, and the person rushed out like a ghost.
Duanpo was used in one move, and the Ghost Head Saber shone brightly in the dark.
Everywhere you pass by, the weirdness turns into a sky full of smoke.
Qingxue was stunned, but quickly reacted, waving the silver thorns continuously, trying to join Xu Bai.
Sometimes, the reality is cruel.
Xu Bai didn't care about Qingxue, but rushed all the way to the second floor, then jumped and rushed towards the man in black.
The whole process seems to be slow, but in fact it takes less than one breath.
Seeing Xu Bai rushing forward, the man in black also pulled out the long knife from his waist, colliding with Xu Bai's ghost knife.
This knife is quite delicate, with various changes hidden inside.
Although he was the one who drew the sword later, he arrived before Xu Bai.
But the next moment, the man in black withdrew his long knife and switched to defense, blocking Xu Bai's knife.
There is no other reason, a dark light rose from Xu Bai's body, and he didn't block the knife at all.
The knife of the man in black is indeed a late attack, but if it cuts on the black light and does not cause the slightest wave, he will be separated the next moment.
Wu Guang looked weird, and he didn't want to provoke him.
"Clang!"
The crisp voice spread throughout the Chunyu Pavilion, and the man in black could only feel a force traveling along the long knife, through his arm, into his body, and he couldn't help but take two steps back.
"Sunder Armor!"
This was the first time the man in black made a sound, with a look of shock.
"Pretending to be me is fun, isn't it?" Xu Bai sneered, and slashed at me again.
The man in black raised his knife again.
But the next moment, he found that the knife was not aimed at him, but was directly inserted into the wooden board on the ground.
"Chick!"
The long knife cut straight into the wooden board and was inlaid inside, and because of this knife, Xu Bai had already exposed his flaws.
The man in black was taken aback.
He looked at Xu Bai who showed his flaws, and always felt that something was wrong.
Before he came here, he had been told by thousands of people not to underestimate this quack, especially when fighting.
But what's going on in this situation now, why did he suddenly slash and show his flaws?
This situation is very wrong.
But sometimes, when a battle occurs, accidents may occur at any time, and a flaw can determine life and death.
The man in black couldn't stand the temptation, and still wanted to try to attack first, so he used eight points of strength and slashed Xu Bai's head with a knife.
Although the knife was only about 80% powerful, it was powerful and heavy, coupled with the sharpness of the long knife, it slashed on Xu Bai's black light, making a loud bang.
The next moment, the man in black froze.
He felt a huge force moving along his long knife, and then commanded his arm to slash towards himself with the same move.
What's happening here?
He didn't have time to think about it, so he could only try his best to stabilize his arm, and finally stopped when it was close to his neck.
"Huh..." The heart of the man in black was beating, and the beating just now almost made him breathless.
If he took his own life just because of this, and if it spreads in the future, it will be thought that he killed himself.
The man in black felt very lucky, but the next moment, this luck turned into fear.
The knife flashed, and the man in black only felt a pain in his right hand, and then, together with the knife held in his right hand, they all flew into the air.
Blood splattered everywhere.
Before the man in black screamed, there was pain in his legs. Starting from his calf, he was chopped off, and he was half short.
"There is another hand, you use this hand to cast maple leaves like rain, right?"
The voice coming from the ear was like a strange whisper.
The man in black raised his head with fear on his face, and saw Xu Bai raised the ghost knife and cut off his remaining left arm.
"It's comfortable." Xu Bai retracted the knife and shouted very happily.
Tell you to imitate me again, I see what chance you have to imitate now?
Imitate one, let me see?
Also play tricks on me, try planting one?
Xu Bai stepped on the chest of the man in black.
At this time, Qingxue was not disturbed by the man in black, and also solved all the weirdness below, and jumped up to the second floor.
Immediately afterwards, she saw the terrifying scene in front of her.
At any rate, she had seen the world, she was just a little surprised, and soon returned to normal.
In the arena, although Xu Bai's actions can be considered cruel, compared with many special methods, they are already considered extremely kind.
She thought it was over, but she didn't expect Xu Bai's next sentence to completely overturn her cognition.
Xu Bai stretched out his hand to her, and said, "You should have Yinyi's wound medicine."
Qingxue's face turned pale, she had already thought about what Xu Bai was going to do.
