Chapter 144: Shocking Change

How Qi Xuansu knew, of course it was Qiniang who told him. He just repeated Qiniang's words to make things more mysterious.

But Zhang Yuelu didn't know his details, so he naturally wanted to be frightened by him.

This has nothing to do with brains. It’s not that Qi Xuansu is any better than Zhang Yuelu. It’s just that the information is unequal. Take the imperial court as an example. There are not many stupid people in the civil and military officials, but they still think that accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. The will of heaven is unpredictable. It’s the emperor’s scheming government. Is it higher than the officials? That's not necessarily true, it's more because the emperor has a higher status and knows more.

Faced with Zhang Yuelu's question, Qi Xuansu asked: "Is it really the Taoist secret? I thought the Taoist secret was the person behind the scenes as mentioned by Master Donghua."

These words were sarcastic, but Zhang Yuelu was speechless.

A major case in Jiangnan cannot be said to have been investigated, but it was just a matter of great publicity, and in the end it was left unsolved.

Zhang Yuelu took a deep breath and seemed to have made up his mind: "Can I trust you?"

"Of course you can trust me." Qi Xuansu was really sincere at this moment, "We have the same attitude towards dealing with the people behind the Jiangnan case."

The two of them were still walking slowly in circles. Zhang Yuelu had been trying to force out the "Bliss Needle" in his body. Qi Xuansu was not unaware, but he did not act rashly. "Long Eye Yi Er" was no joke, although Zhang Yuelu He was holding a paper umbrella, but he really opened a bloody hole for Zhang Yuelu, and he regretted it forever. If she misses on purpose, she won't be able to scare Zhang Yuelu. Even if Zhang Yuelu's cultivation is damaged, as long as she uses the "Cihang Pudu Sword Code" with "no photo paper", Qi Xuansu will definitely be defeated.

From the beginning to the end, Qi Xuansu used various means, including words and sneak attacks, to restrict and weaken Zhang Yuelu. The fundamental reason was that Qi Xuansu could not defeat Zhang Yuelu and had to outwit him, thus maintaining an undefeated situation.

Just when Qi Xuansu was at a loss what to do, there was suddenly a sharp scream.

Then there was the sound of horse hooves.

Qi Xuansu's expression changed and he looked out of the corner of his eye.

I saw a group of people approaching at a gallop, at least several hundred people.

What a big battle.

Qi Xuansu didn't recognize the leader, but Zhang Yuelu did. It was Yuan Shangdao, and she suddenly had a bad feeling.

Then I heard Yuan Shangdao cry out sadly: "My son!"

Previously, Qi Xuansu threw Yuan Fengchan on the ground and fought with the killer of the "inn", so he had no time to take care of Yuan Fengchan.

At this time, Yuan Fengchan was actually dead, because there were many corpses of the "inn" killers on the ground, and Yuan Fengchan's corpses were mixed in among them. Qi Xuansu was focused on Zhang Yuelu and Liu Hu, and did not pay attention. He only thought that Yuan Fengchan had taken advantage of the chaos to escape. .

Yuan Shangdao looked at the three of them fiercely and said coldly: "Don't let any of them go."

Zhang Yuelu's uneasiness finally came true.

The death of Yuan Fengchan would not allow Yuan Shangdao to risk the loss of his family by killing Zhang Yuelu. For such an aristocratic family, if a son is gone, he can be reborn, but if the family is gone, there is nothing.

Then Yuan Shangdao's behavior is very strange.

Especially Zhang Yuelu is still the "imperial envoy" of the Taoist sect.

This reminded Zhang Yuelu of his last experience as an "imperial envoy".

In Jiangnan Daofu, there is a needle hidden in the cotton, a knife hidden in the smile, and a dagger hidden in the picture.

Almost the same experience.

Kill and silence.

These thoughts were just flashes of light, and Zhang Yuelu immediately made a decision: "Help me force the 'Bliss Needle' out of my body!"

As if he had a tacit understanding, Qi Xuansu did not hesitate at all. While throwing the "Dragon Gun" in his hand to Liu Hu, he had already come behind Zhang Yuelu, stretched out his hand and pressed it on her lower back, injecting real energy.

Zhang Yuelu was about to force out the "Bliss Needles" from his body, but with Qi Xuansu's help, two "Bliss Needles" shot out immediately.

The next moment, a row of firecrackers was aimed at the two of them.

When Liu Hu caught the "Dragon Hand Gun", he had already jumped on the back of "Bu Yue". People become treacherous with age, horses become slippery with age, and eagles find it difficult to catch rabbits with age. "Bu Yue" is a well-deserved old horse. When he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately drove Liu Hu into the woods. After entering the woods, no firecrackers could be used.

Zhang Yuelu, while forcing the "Bliss Needle" out of his body, doubled the size of the paper umbrella made of "no photographic paper", blocking both of them.

There was a sound of firecrackers, armor-piercing projectiles and "Dragon Eyes Yiwu" falling on the umbrella surface like rapid raindrops. Although the paper umbrella was unscathed, it was shaken violently and Zhang Yuelu's hands holding the umbrella continued to tremble.

When the rain of bullets in the gun forest stopped for a while, Zhang Yuelu closed the paper umbrella in his hand and turned it into a large bow as tall as a man. He held the bow horizontally and nocked twelve arrows.

Twelve paper arrows shot out,

More than twelve people were killed in response.

Some of the paper arrows pierced through the heart, killing the people behind them.

Qi Xuansu only had a single sword left. The dagger "Qingyuan" was difficult to expose, and the "Fengyan Yisan" had long been used up. However, he could see that he was holding it in vain with both hands, and the black mist condensed into a ghost-headed sword that seemed both virtual and real. .

Qi Xuansu used this ghost sword to use the "Dayan Spirit Sword", which was even weirder than the two swords. With one strike of the sword, many heads flew up into the air, all of them with horrified expressions on their faces.

Zhang Yuelu caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of his eye and couldn't help but feel a little surprised. I didn't expect that this person didn't use all his strength just now, but still had such means. If he suddenly used it, he would be unprepared and he might suffer a big loss.

However, Yuan Shangdao and others were outnumbered after all, so the death of more than twenty people was nothing, and they immediately surrounded the two of them.

Zhang Yuelu's longbow turned into a paper sword, and Qi Xuansu returned to the original place after beheading the murderer, and immediately the two of them stood back to back.

The two cooperated smoothly, and in the eyes of Yuan Shangdao and others, it seemed like they had rehearsed in advance.

Yuan Shangdao said coldly: "I didn't expect that Master Zhang would collude with the demons of the secret society."

Zhang Yuelu didn't say anything, and didn't even ask Yuan Shangdao why he took action. It was nothing more than the matter of Yanqing Chamber of Commerce involving the Yuan family, which was also expected.

There was just one thing she didn't understand. At the welcoming banquet not long ago, the Yuan family obviously didn't mean to fight to the death, and didn't even say a threatening word. It was clearly still in the stage of testing.

In just a few hours, what happened that caused the Yuan family's attitude to change so much. Did the person behind the scenes give a death order? Or did the person behind the scenes give the Yuan family a reassurance and guarantee that the Taoist sect would not retaliate afterwards? Who has such great power?

However, the current situation left her no time to think deeply. She understood one thing: the dead cannot speak. If both of them died here, it was naturally the evil cult demon Wei Wugui who killed Master Zhang, and then everyone worked together to kill the evil cult demon Wei Wugui to avenge Master Zhang.

Survive first and then talk about other things.

Due to the terrain restrictions, hundreds of people could not rush forward at once, and only a dozen people could attack together, but they were all martial arts masters raised by the Yuan family.

Three of them held knives and rushed towards Qi Xuansu in the Three Talents formation, not taking Qi Xuansu seriously. Qi Xuansu casually waved the ghost knife in his hand, and the blade seemed to strike through the air. The palms of the three people holding the knives were immediately broken at the wrist, and the three long knives fell to the ground together. The three people held their broken wrists and screamed.

On the other side, eight people attacked Zhang Yuelu, and they obviously valued Zhang Yuelu more. All eight of them were holding long spears and stabbed Zhang Yuelu from all directions. This was a famous spear formation in the martial arts world. It should have occupied all directions, with one person in each direction. However, Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were back to back, so they could only attack Zhang Yuelu in a fan-shaped manner.

Two spears stabbed Zhang Yuelu's chest and abdomen, two spears swept the ground and hit Zhang Yuelu's tibia, two spears stabbed Zhang Yuelu's face and eyes, and two spears stabbed Zhang Yuelu's ribs. There were killers everywhere.

These eight martial arts masters exerted their life's strength and attacked without mercy. It seems that everyone knows that fighting with Zhang Yuelu is extremely dangerous, and they dare not hold back.

Zhang Yuelu took a step forward, and his body spun around, like a spinning top spinning at high speed, with golden winds surging and sword shadows flashing, forming a killing net.

There was only a continuous sound of metal and stone colliding. The heads of the eight spears were all cut off, and the spear shafts were shaking. The hands of the eight people holding the spears were bleeding and they almost couldn't hold the spears.

Then Zhang Yuelu rolled up her sleeves and said, "Let go!"

She forcibly took away the eight spear shafts without spear heads, and then threw them back. The spears without spear heads immediately shot towards their original owners and pierced through their bodies. Blood covered the spear shafts and dripped down.

Who said that you can't kill people without spear heads?
