Chapter 5 Chapter Five

Ning Jiu smiled. There was really no trace of panic in her smile, just like these hands were not the hands of the soul-hunting demon sword, and what was under them was not her neck. Her smile was more than charming, but not sharp enough, with a hint of bewilderment and no fear, and she didn't take Yi Chuan's threat at all.The calmer her demeanor was, the more confused Yi Chuan became. Ning Jiu smiled and said, "What are you doing? Do you want to rape me after drinking?" She sighed, and said, "It's only my fault that I shouldn't have given you so much wine, so if you want to rape me, I will never resist. It's your own fault."

She closed her eyes, and slowly leaned towards Yi Chuan. But Yi Chuan felt as if he had been scolded by a branding iron, and he was eight feet away when he retreated.Ning Jiuwei didn't chase after him, looked at him and smiled, "What? Don't you rape me anymore? Do you want me to rape you?" Yi Chuan looked solemn and said nothing.The demon knife in his hand gradually made a buzzing sound.The sound became louder and louder, Yi Chuan said slowly: "You may be able to deceive Li Qingchou with this kind of trick, but it will never work against me. If you don't give me the antidote, I will kill you. There is no negotiation in this." leeway."

Holding the knife in both hands, he lifted it slowly.The smile on Ning Jiuwei's face remained undiminished: "I am so beautiful, do you really have the heart to kill me?" Yi Chuan sneered, "I can't bear it, but I still want to kill him." Ning Jiu smiled and said, "Shall we make a bet?" Yi Chuan shouted: "Okay!" Suddenly the room was lit up. A ray of cold light suddenly splashed away, hit a wall and returned, overlapped each other, squeezed violently, multiplied into boundless raging waves, and surged out. Yi Chuan's saber is provoking and guiding this radiance, like a roaring dragon roaring, and a tiger vibrating, seeming to come out of nowhere, but far and wide, just like fate, connecting the present world with the other shore.

One end is the moving Yi Chuan, and the other end is the quiet Ning Jiuwei. She didn't seem to have thought that Yi Chuan's martial arts were so high, and she didn't seem to think that Yi Chuan's knife could really be cut, and she seemed to have been shocked by the momentum of this knife. Before she could take any action, Yi Chuan's knife had already slashed at her. shoulders. The saber qi circled and danced, rushing forward, Ning Jiuwei's protective zhenqi was like spring snow facing the sun, and was swung by the saber into thousands of nymphs.The light of the knife did not stop, and entered through the clouds!

Ning Jiuwei's beautiful eyes widened in horror, and then closed again. Death soared into the sky, covering her face with huge wings, this boundless black was enough to suffocate her.The cold light was also like death, penetrating deep into her body, grabbing her heart. Strangely, Ning Jiuwei didn't feel fear, but instead she felt an extreme sense of relief. There was a slight smile on the corner of her mouth. Returning home weak, who can say no? The light of the knife in the room suddenly melted away, and Yi Chuan slowly retracted the knife and stood there, his face full of loneliness.

His anger and vigor seemed to have been completely vented in this knife, and after the knife was released, there was no need to have any results. Because he has given himself the result, the result he wants. Yichuan Angtian let out a long breath and said with a smile: "You won, I still can't kill you after all." He turned and walked out.The antidote, Ning Jiuwei, was no different from dust in his eyes. How could his own life be dust?But he ignored it.Is this the prodigal son? Ning Jiuwei slowly leaned against the wall, looking at Yi Chuan's back.There seemed to be a strange light jumping in her eyes.

Does Yi Chuan really not have the heart to kill her?Does Yi Chuan really not care about his own life? Maybe I can't bear it, but I just disdain; I don't care, it's just that I no longer want to face what I don't want to face. Ning Jiuwei is no stranger to this kind of situation. Although everyone treats her with respect and flattery on the surface, she also knows that few people really think highly of her. Because she is a commodity. Sell ​​yourself and get something else back.She's used to it, and she's numb to the situation. But now, she suddenly had an urge, an urge to stop being numb.

Yi Chuan was about to step out of the room when Ning Jiuwei suddenly stopped him. "Would you like to hear a story?" Yi Chuan's footsteps stopped.Ning Jiuwei's voice seemed to have suddenly aged a lot, which made him unable to stop. Ning Jiuwei simply leaned against the wall and sat on the ground, and said slowly, "Do you know the Devil's Cult?" Yi Chuan nodded and said, "Are you talking about the Tianluo Sect?" Ning Jiu smiled and said: "Now is a troubled time, with many schools and endless disputes. The righteous way of martial arts has long since declined. The Huayin Pavilion, which has been established for hundreds of years and has deep roots, suffered a great loss of vitality ten years ago due to internal strife. The current pavilion owner Transitions and personnel changes are exactly the time to keep a low profile and recuperate. It has been several years since I have been involved in the affairs of the world. Only the Demon Cult..."

Yi Chuan frowned and said, "No, it's been ten years since the Tianluo Sect disappeared from the world." He shook his head, and said again: "Ten years ago, the Tianluo Sect was at its peak, making waves in the martial arts world, and everyone got to punish him But later, a generation of famous heroes challenged the Demon Sect alone in the sky. In the first battle, all ten elders in the sect died in battle, and the Demon Sect disappeared from then on..." Ning Jiu nodded slightly and said: "I always thought so. However, when I was eighteen years old, a young man came to propose a marriage. He claimed to be the son of the leader of Tianluo. Only then did I know that the Demon Cult has not been eliminated. And I Father seemed to be on good terms with that person's elders, and he agreed to the marriage."

Yi Chuan sneered, "Why didn't you agree to such a good thing?" Ning Jiuwei ignored his sarcasm, and still said to himself: "Because, before that, I met a man who was a famous hero in the world, and he was even more personable. I couldn't stop falling in love with him. After half a year, his first wife died of illness, so he proposed to me. I foolishly agreed, and that night, I lost my virginity to him. From then on, I obeyed him even more, and he was also tender to me, but he thought the reputation of adultery was not good, and told me not to tell my father and brother first.I thought he was thinking of me, but I was even more grateful and respectful to him.

Therefore, of course, I absolutely cannot agree to the marriage of the son of the leader of the Demon Cult. After a big quarrel, I got angry and fought against that young man.That young man's martial arts are extremely high, originally I was definitely not an opponent, but he just wanted to show his martial arts and didn't make things difficult for me.But in my bosom, I have hidden the world's number one hidden weapon, the Bone Fixing Needle, which he gave me.It was cast out suddenly and stabbed the boy seriously.The young man left bitterly, threatening revenge. My father and brother are about to stay, but the young man has gone far.I knew I was causing trouble, but I thought it might not be a bad thing to break the root of that young man's entanglement, so I didn't take it to heart.Unexpectedly, within a few days, several masters suddenly attacked.Those people's martial arts were surprisingly high, Zhuang Zhong was caught off guard and was beaten up.Thanks to his righteous action, he turned defeat into victory and injured three of them.Afterwards, the enmity became bigger and bigger, and I only found out later that because of my capriciousness, the two ways of good and evil, who were originally at peace, finally went to war again. After this battle, my father and brother died.I was taken care of by him and saved myself.I regard him as the only relative, waiting for him to propose marriage.Unexpectedly, by accident, I found that the person I loved deeply turned out to be a jackal. It turned out that back then my father and brother had great ambitions and wanted to mix the good and evil religions, so they have been repairing with the Tianluo religion, and even married their daughter off.But he knows that after the unity of good and evil, there is no room for his ambitions to be displayed.So he seduced me first, and then persuaded the leader of Tianluo to send his son to propose marriage, and then pretended that he had no intention of doing so, and gave me the bone-setting needle as a gift.Originally, this matter had to be dealt with, but then he sent people to say that the Demon Cult was invading, and then severely injured several people, and finally it was impossible to deal with it.And his wife who died of illness at the beginning was also killed by him. After I found out, I was ashamed and angry.It's just that at this time the bead tire has been darkened, so I can only bear it.He knew that I had discovered his secret, but he didn't reveal it.After I gave birth to my daughter, I quietly stole away, and then threatened me to obey him.At this time, he was insane and only knew how to order the world, so he said to me, if I can earn 10,000 taels of silver, I will give my daughter a bowl of rice to eat, but if I can't earn it, I will only starve.I refused to agree at first, so he locked me into a hut, put my daughter next door, and cried all night.My voice was almost hoarse from crying all night, but no one answered.The next day my heart was extremely cold, so I had no choice but to make money.I am a woman, what can I do?But as long as I think that my daughter will stop crying and have food and clothes to wear, I can bear any hardships. " Ning Jiuwei's voice was empty, without any emotion.Her eyes were also as desolate as the snow-covered land, and her voice was flat and flat, without twists and turns.Yi Chuan listened blankly, as if he had become one with the earth. Life and death, love and hate, are the eternal sorrows of human beings. Yi Chuan is not an emotionless person, even though he is a prodigal son.He stared at Ning Jiuwei with needle-like eyes, as if he wanted to see through this woman. Ning Jiuwei's vitality seemed to have drained from her words, leaving only an empty shell of her person. Finally, Yi Chuan let out a long sigh, went to sit beside Ning Jiuwei, and said, "So you are also a poor person." The corners of Ning Jiuwei's mouth twitched, and she seemed unable to smile anymore: "But how can money be earned in the Jianghu? So I came to the border of Miaojiang to make a fortune." Yi Chuan said: "Tell me about your plan and I'll listen." Ning Jiuwei said: "There is nothing in this Miao border, except that there is a lot of gold. The Miao people have lived here for generations, and they are hoarding actively. I have already checked the good place, and I can take it away as soon as I have a chance. Then I will My daughter will have enough to eat for a few years." Yi Chuan frowned and said, "Isn't that very unfair to the Miao people?" Ning Jiuwei said: "Miaojiang has a lot of real estate, so they don't depend on gold and silver. The Miao people have no concept of currency. When they get gold, they often exchange colorful things such as ribbons, shoes and hats with the Han people. One hundred taels of gold, even I can’t get back the price of one tael. Instead of benefiting those profiteers, how can I benefit me? I don’t treat them badly, so I will naturally take out one-tenth of it, buy things, and send them back to Miaojiang.” Yi Chuan nodded and said, "In that case, it's really a good idea to take it." Ning Jiuwei said: "It's a pity that I'm a woman. I can't beat others, and I can't take much away. I know I have gold, but there is nothing I can do." Yi Chuan said: "I will help you." Ning Jiuwei was taken aback, and said, "You help me?" Yichuan nodded heavily.There seemed to be tears in Ning Jiuwei's eyes again, she smiled very bitterly: "Will you help me do these bad things?" Yi Chuan shook his head and said, "I won't help you do bad things." He stared at Ning Jiuwei and said, "But it's not a bad thing." Ning Jiu lowered her head slightly, as if she didn't dare to look at Yi Chuan anymore. Yi Chuan said leisurely: "I don't know when is the best opportunity?" "In three days' time, it will be the Moon Worship Festival in Miaojiang. At that time, the Miao people from the eighteen caves will gather here to participate in the annual treasure fighting meeting. There will be the most people on that day, and the most chaotic. The more people, the more chaotic, The more opportunities we have." The three days are coming soon, and the Moon Worship Festival is indeed very lively. Yi Chuan also couldn't count how many people came, he just felt that the quarrel had become unbearable. The village is surrounded by mountains, with a plain in the middle, about ten miles wide, and it is now full of people.Some of them brought their own tents, felled huge trees more than ten feet high, cut them into extremely high stakes, and erected tents on the spot; some dug soil and hewed stones to build temporary houses; Live on the ground and place daily utensils all over the floor.When there are too many people, you can do anything.Those who sell rouge and gouache, those who sell fur and bones, those who sell silk and satin, those who sell gold and silver utensils, those who sell oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, those who sell clothes, shoes and hats, those who sell swords, bows and arrows, those who sell mules, horses, cattle and sheep, and those who sell Shandong. Flatbreads with Beijing bean juice, Suzhou thousand-layer cakes, Huzhou zongzi, Liuzhou coffins, Yangzhou tables and chairs, Sichuan bacon, Hubei spicy peppers, and so on.There were Han people, Miao people, Tibetans, Dong people, Yi people, Manchu people, Zhuang people, Baiyi people, and Uighur people mixed in and shouted loudly.Each took the goods to trade back and forth, and the scene was so prosperous that it was really like a Raksha sea market. These people are extremely generous in transactions, and if they fancy something, they often don't care about the price.For every silk scarf, several handfuls of golden beans can be sold.After those Miao people bought it, they put it on in a hurry, their dark faces were full of joy.This kind of simple happiness is the most contagious, and Yi Chuan was a little moved. He raised his head, drank the wine in front of him again, muttered a few words in a low voice, and fell on the table to snore. Yi Chuan felt unhappy when he thought of stealing money from these people.Although he is a prodigal son and sometimes calls himself a jerk, he never steals.Now not only would he want to steal, but he would also be able to steal hundreds of thousands of taels of gold, so he couldn't help but feel uneasy. Fortunately, he had already agreed to Ning Jiuwei, but Yichuan never backed down.Now that he has become a tiger-riding force, he doesn't need to think too much, just be his grandma. He put his head in his hands and decided to take a nap first. Anyway, Ning Jiuwei told him that after she got rid of the guards of the treasure house, she would come to inform him naturally, and he was happy to take a break. Suddenly, three cannons sounded "Dong Dong Dong", and someone shouted: "The Battle of Treasures has begun!" Immediately, the uproarious trading sounds stopped all at once, and the crowd shouted "The Fight of Treasures has begun!" pass on. Yi Chuan couldn't help raising his head, and saw the crowd retreating violently, leaving an area as large as an acre in the middle of the ruins.More than a dozen people who looked like handymen quickly cleaned the open space, spread a scarlet carpet, and then scattered the dried flowers in their hands around the carpet.The interest of the onlookers gradually became high. Talking about it, they seemed to have great interest in this treasure fighting meeting. Yi Chuan yawned and looked listlessly at the venue.To be honest, he really didn't have much hope for this borderland. Only the sound of gongs and drums shook the sky, and someone stood on the carpet and muttered something.The Miao language was difficult to understand, and Yi Chuan couldn't understand what he was saying.Then another person stood up, but this person was born with big ears, a thick back and a hunchback, looking forward and looking, he was very majestic.He looked at a stop in the ruins, and he felt that there was no one around.Only then did Yi Chuan's interest rise slightly.Hearing him say something in a deep voice, everyone in the audience applauded loudly, but it was the official start of the Treasure Fighting Conference. The man walked slowly to the east and sat down. Amidst the sound of silk and bamboo, a pair of Miao people walked out on the red carpet. They were dressed colorfully and in different costumes.It's just that everyone has a pheasant feather in their hat.Yi Chuan had heard that this was a flower-winged seedling, with the most ferocious and combative temperament, if he provoked him easily, he would immediately draw his sword to face him.I saw them carrying a huge box, walked to the middle of the carpet, carefully opened the lid of the box, and then hurriedly backed away, as if there was some monster in the box. Yi Chuan felt a little strange, not knowing what treasure they were going to offer. Suddenly hearing a "goo", a huge toad jumped out of the box.The toad was half a person tall, with a red body and a faintly transparent skin. It seemed that even the internal organs in the middle could be clearly seen.Seeing so many people around it, it suddenly became fierce, and let out another "goo" cry, and rushed out.Just approaching the edge of the carpet, but as if suddenly touching the fire, he hastily backed away.The Miao people around seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and they were not nervous. They pointed to the toad and talked about it, as if they praised its ferocity. The toad failed to rush out, and immediately became furious, and circled the carpet, yelling "cuckoo" from time to time to show off its power.Not long after, another group of Miao people came over. This group of Miao people were all naked from the upper body, with colorful totems painted on their chests and backs, and even their faces were red and green.They also carried a box, and each had a bundle of hay in his hand. The toad seemed to be very afraid of the grass, and only after smelling it, it ran away far away.The Miao people put down the box and retreated. The box was naturally filled with extremely vicious poisons, the toad seemed to know that a natural enemy had forced its way into its restricted area, and could not stop roaring angrily, roaring loudly, and its body became more and more transparent. Suddenly there was a sharp whistling sound, and a black shadow shot out of the box like electricity, and rushed straight at the toad.The toad bucked its body, flicked out its tongue, and shot at the black shadow.The black shadow was extremely flexible, it turned slightly in the air, and its front ends parted abruptly, like a big clamp, it was clamping towards the toad's tongue.The toad was caught off guard, and was pinched by it. It could only groan in pain, and shook its big head violently, but it couldn't get rid of the shadow no matter what.The black shadow folded its body and wrapped the toad's tongue completely, and there was a loud chewing sound immediately, half of the toad's tongue was eaten instantly.The toad was in pain, and its tongue contracted violently. The black shadow was sucked into the mouth by the toad without avoiding it. But the sound of chewing didn't stop, the toad seemed to be crazy, it kept jumping around in the field, suddenly jumped high, and when it fell down again, it was already motionless.It's just that the huge belly bulged non-stop, and there was a sudden crack, and the black shadow burst out of the belly and stopped in the air. It was only then that everyone saw clearly that the black shadow was a huge centipede, with giant pincers that looked extremely ferocious.There are two wings on the back, flapping slightly, which is even more weird. The previous man stood up and said a few words loudly, and saw that the flower-winged Miao man was full of frustration, while the naked Miao man was rejoicing, as if celebrating a victory. After a while, another group of Miao people brought their own poison to the stage and started fighting.This time the poison was a boa constrictor, it couldn't fight much, and it was also drilled into the stomach by the flying centipede, eating all the internal organs, but the naked man won again. Afterwards, poisonous substances appeared one after another, and the flying centipede defeated the money spider and the fire cloud scorpion, but was entangled by the wire snake and swallowed it clean.The Iron Wire Snake was no match for Jin Shougong, and Jin Shougong was defeated by Long Falcon. What is left now is this bird, which is neither a bird nor a beast. Its body is like a bird, but it has a snake head and neck, and its body is covered with scales. A dragon falcon with two pairs of fleshy wings on its back.The bird screamed shrill and cracked the clouds, its two pairs of wings spread out, and the wind was overflowing.The claws are long and the beak is sharp, the strength can split tigers and leopards, the scales on the body cannot be cut by knives, it is really fierce by nature, almost invincible. Sure enough, Long Falcon was looking forward to his own strength in the field, and the Miao people didn't dare to put poison in and fight again. The man yelled a few times earlier, as if asking if anyone else dared to challenge.That dragon falcon seemed to show its power deliberately, striding forward, staring at the leader, hesitating in long messages, blatantly majestic.All the Miao people were suffocated.The man called a few times, but no one answered, Fang was about to announce the result of the Treasure Fighting Conference, when suddenly someone said: "How about I try it?" Yi Chuan's eyes brightened, and seeing the crowd parting, Li Qingchou walked in slowly.
