Chapter 79: The Wrong Details
Shopkeeper Xu was shocked: "What did you say?"
I smiled calmly and said, "Old Xu! There is a popular saying nowadays that details determine success or failure?"
"You lose because of the details!"
Shopkeeper Xu said sternly: "I have arranged every detail clearly. Are there any omissions?"
I took a few steps forward with my hands behind my back: "You made a mistake in calling Shi Chongguang!"
"Two old friends who have known each other for decades and have always been inseparable, you say Shi Chongguang one by one. Do you think it's normal?"
"This is the Northeast, and you are all from the world. There are no such formal terms for friends to get along with each other. Even if you want to protect Shi Chongguang's face in front of us, you will unconsciously slip out one or two nicknames."
"Have you ever?"
In the eyes of Jianghu people, calling friends nicknames is not a derogation but a closeness, and it is a life-or-death relationship.
When a brother is in trouble, a person who calls him "dog" and "pillar" all day long will stand by and watch?
This kind of thing may happen in other places, but among Jianghu people who are not afraid of life and death, a nickname like brother is the ironclad proof that life and death are closely related.
Shopkeeper Xu pointed at me and said, "You, you... you have noticed that I am lying to you a long time ago, why are you taking action now?"
I smiled and said, "That's because I can't figure out what the relationship is between you and the Thirteen Ghost Gates?"
"What I want is the Thirteen Ghost Gates, not the secrets of your Wujiang Pavilion."
"Now, the people from the Thirteen Ghost Sect are here. If I keep you, you won't be of much use. Let's get on our way!"
Shopkeeper Xu sneered solemnly: "You all have fierce tattoos on your body. I won't let you move, and none of you can move."
"Besides, this is the space where our Wujiang Pavilion is located. Even if you have great abilities, you won't be able to use them."
Shopkeeper Xu sneered and raised his hand and slapped it twice in the air, and a chill suddenly rose behind me.
At that time, I faced Shopkeeper Xu with a gloomy look and sneers.
The whole secret room was eerily quiet for a moment. I couldn't hear any sound, but I could feel someone breaking through the space and approaching me step by step.
A moment later, the man stood behind me. I could clearly feel the yin energy on the other person's body, overlapping with my back. It felt like someone was pounced on me, and my limbs and chest were just right.
It's like a sinister wind that penetrates my body bit by bit.
Shopkeeper Xu sneered: "Do you have any ability to make a comeback now?"
"Open -" I suddenly let out a roar, and phosphorescent light suddenly appeared from behind. The splashing phosphorus fire was like a festive firework, blooming brilliantly. The flying phosphorus fire flickered in and out of the secret room. Shopkeeper Xu was horrified: "You
...You destroyed the soul...You..."
I smiled lightly and said, "You want to ask me how I did it? You have to ask the veteran thief about this."
The veteran thief seems to be a kind person, but in fact, his trust in others is extremely low. It is a complete accident that he can regard Ye Laogui as his brother and Ye Huan as his own son.
When Shopkeeper Xu added tattoos to us, he had already done some manipulation.
If you look at Ye Huan's and mine's tattoos again now, you will find that there is a rune added later hidden in each of the tattoo's eyes.
That was what the veteran thieves did while Ye Huan and I were recuperating in the hospital.
The two runes are one for suppressing and the other for killing, to prevent Shopkeeper Xu from doing anything on the tattoo.
I looked at Shopkeeper Xu with a half-smile but not a smile: "Old Xu! We are all people who are involved in martial arts. If we dare to come to you to do business, why don't we ask about your background in advance?"
"We have already asked clearly about the tattoo artist's three taboos, four taboos, and four hidden tricks."
While I was talking, Ye Huan's long knife also turned in another direction and pressed against Shopkeeper Xu's shoulder again.
I looked at Shopkeeper Xu with a half-smile but said, "Old Xu, let's chat later! Do it!"
Ye Huan's long sword suddenly sank down, and the violent sword energy instantly cut Shopkeeper Xu in half.
The ghost of Shopkeeper Xu emerged from the flying blood, pointing at me and speechless.
"I now believe that you don't have much cultivation." I looked at the other person and said: "No wonder you came out to do tattoos this time. It turns out that you have targeted warlocks."
Although a person possessed by a ghost will have much greater strength than usual, that is only the strength of the person. In a sense, the possessed person is not as scary as the ghost itself.
I raised my hand and pointed the crossbow arrow at Shopkeeper Xu’s ghost: “Call out the remaining two people!”
"You should give up on this idea!" Shopkeeper Xu said sternly: "From now on, I, the Wujiange disciples, will fight with you until death. Just wait, sooner or later one day..."
Before Shopkeeper Xu finished speaking, I pulled the spring, and Shopkeeper Xu’s ghost was carried up into the air by the crossbow arrow and nailed into the wall.
I shook my crossbow and said, "It's useless to talk harshly to me! I just ask you, do you want to die or live?"
"You find the two ghosts who chose Ye Huan and Shi Qi as hosts and let me kill them. I'll let you go. The people from Wujiang Pavilion want to seek revenge from me, and I'll be waiting for you at any time."
"Otherwise, you will be the one who dies here today."
Shopkeeper Xu struggled and said: "Little Third Master, we can talk."
"Wujiang Pavilion has discovered hundreds of mysterious ghost realms. The wealth there is far beyond your imagination. As long as you are willing..."
I raised my hand and shot another arrow, piercing Shopkeeper Xu's left leg: "I'm not interested. I just want people."
Shopkeeper Xu was already shaking with pain: "Little Third Master, why do you have to fight against our Wujiang Pavilion? "
"You..." As soon as I said one word, I felt the space behind me suddenly distort.
When I suddenly turned around, I saw that the wooden frame that originally placed the memorial tablet had completely collapsed, and a red-painted wooden door appeared on the wall.
Wujiang Pavilion opens two spaces in a row?
The stone temple where we are located is separated from the underground secret room by the wooden door that shopkeeper Xu brought back with Shi Chongguang, forming the first space.
Behind this space is connected to the second door of life and death in Wujiang Pavilion.
That’s where Wujiang Pavilion appears!
As soon as I turned around, I heard a sneer coming from behind the wooden door: "What's the point of bullying a weak person?"
As soon as the other party's last syllable fell, a blood-red sedan burst out of the door without anyone lifting it, and rushed straight in my direction.
Before the blood sedan even got close to me, a palm protruding from the sedan struck me in the face from a distance.
Although the hands looked human, they could stretch several meters, and the force of the slap was extremely powerful. At the same time, the two poles of the blood sedan suddenly stretched forward, blocking my left and right escape routes.
The blood sedan arrived so suddenly that by the time I reacted, the two sedan poles had already passed my sides.
As I continued to retreat, I drew knives with both hands at the same time. The tips of the two daggers faced each other towards the opponent's wrist. I turned around and cut off her hands.
