After crossing, I suppressed the shadow guard who wanted to kill me

Chapter 42

==============================

"Knock Knock Knock-"

In the quiet room, there were several knocks on the door.

Jing Lingzhi looked up, Su Qi was standing by the door.Seeing Master dressed in black and standing at the door with a blank expression on his face, he was not only not surprised, but felt "he really came".

Su Qi said: "Come out and talk?" It was obviously a question, but Jing Lingzhi didn't allow him to refuse.

Jing Lingzhi didn't want to refuse either.He waved away the subordinates who helped him bandage the wound, picked up the two ends of the bandage himself, tied a firm knot familiarly, and then put the black clothes on the side back on his body.

This time I came out in a hurry, there was no spare clothes, and Wangjia Village was located in a remote place, only a small county town not far from here had a ready-made clothing store, which was really inconvenient.Therefore, there are not only the cuts made by the sword on the clothes, but also a lot of dried blood, the enemy's and his own.

Quickly tidying himself up, Jing Lingzhi silently followed Su Qi to a secluded place, planning a conversation for a while.

Speaking of which, he and Su Qi hadn't seen each other for just a few days, and when they saw each other in the room just now, they felt very strange.That alienated and indifferent attitude, even a slightly defensive attitude... Jing Lingzhi almost gave a wry smile. After getting along for more than ten or twenty years, even when he was the most stubborn, the master did not treat him as he does now. So much pressure.

When he arrived at the place, Jing Lingzhi took a quick look around, and it was really the least crowded place in Wangjia Village.

The person who had been turning his back to Jing Lingzhi stood still some distance away from him, and finally turned around, his dark eyes fell on him, and he pressed down heavily.Su Qi asked: "What explanation do you have for what the little boss said?"

This question brought Jing Lingzhi back to the melee in the grove.

When he found Yingsan and his group, they were under siege, and he rescued a shadow guard at a critical moment, who also fell into the siege.

Seeing that little boss showing up triumphantly with more enemies, Jing Lingzhi knew that Ying San was just a bait to lure him into the pit.

It is not much different from his previous prediction.Jing Lingzhi procrastinated for time, while calculating when the arranged manpower would arrive.I didn't expect that the little boss looked stupid, but he was really stupid. He was arrogant and overjoyed.

But it was a crooked attack that caused Jing Lingzhi a little trouble.

Not a big problem.Jing Ling's eyes see six directions and ears hear all directions, infinitely magnifying the senses.

A long time ago, Su Qi had taught him that it is not difficult to fight many with one.There are many people on the opposite side, but the few people in the innermost circle really need to be concerned.

The key lies in whether you can be calm and calm in the face of the enemy's attack, and quickly kill the enemy with the smallest force.

It is not difficult for five or six people, and it is not difficult for a dozen or 20 people, but what about the continuous siege of fifty or hundreds of people?

Jing Lingzhi happens to have both patience and endurance.

Seeing that a fierce battle was inevitable, an unexpected person jumped out at this moment and went straight to the little boss.He was the master who was supposed to be in Changshan.

Jing Lingzhi watched his master circling with dozens of shadow guards, his heart almost jumped into his throat, and he couldn't even distinguish the heart of scolding Yingyi.

The sword has no eyes, how much of the master's martial arts has recovered?Not to mention that it is easy to hide with a spear and hard to defend against a hidden arrow. Like the Hengjiao Shadow Guard, the Shadow Guard is best at assassination, and the black hand will use everything to beat the sap.Relying on these, if one is not paying attention, even a person whose martial arts are higher than them will suffer a lot.Master, he has never been in contact with these, if he is accidentally tricked...

Shadow One is trash!Cursing fiercely, Jing Lingzhi didn't care about his own safety, and when the next wave of attacks from the Shadow Guards came, he took a slash on the side of his waist and seized the fleeting opportunity to rush to his master's side.

No matter how many guards the little boss had around him, he was no match for Su Hongyu and Jing Lingzhi joining forces, and it didn't take long for them to show signs of decline.He was trapped in the woods, had no way to escape, and was unwilling to perish, but when Jing Lingzhi's sword was about to pierce his neck, he shouted: "He is just a fake, Jing Lingzhi, open your eyes to see clearly! "

With the help of internal strength, these words spread mightily throughout the grove.

Everything is messed up.

The momentary chaos almost turned the shadow guards of the Donghua faction into a comeback.After finally killing all the enemies, the master's sudden coma caused an uproar.

Fortunately, Jing Lingzhi's prestige was high enough, he forcibly suppressed all the chaos, and rushed back to Wangjia Village with his master as quickly as possible.

The only thing to be thankful for is that although Su Qi didn't say a word, she didn't speak out against it.

It's perfectly normal to just ask for an explanation after everything has settled.

What should come will come sooner or later.Jing Lingzhi sorted out his thoughts, and explained everything that happened during this period in detail.

This said, it was half an hour.

Su Qi's frown became tighter and tighter. In the end, he even clenched the sword around his waist, his whole body was tense, and he looked like he was ready to go. He asked Jing Lingzhi in a rough tone: "So, you knew from the beginning the truth?"

Jing Lingzhi nodded.

"Why not kill him!" Su Qi roared in a low voice.

Jing Lingzhi explained quickly: "Leave him alive, and the master may still come back. If you kill him, the master will really not be able to come back."

"He said that, so you believe it?" Su Qi's voice was full of unspeakable sarcasm, "Why didn't I know that the apprentice I taught was so gullible?"

Jing Lingzhi lowered his head, neither speaking nor refuting.

"What about now? Ying San's investigation is enough to show that the master was taken away by that lonely ghost and died, and he can't come back..."

Before Su Qi finished speaking, Jing Lingzhi, who had been listening to the training with his head bowed, suddenly interrupted Su Qi: "He is not a lonely ghost."

Su Qi didn't react for a while, and asked instinctively: "What?"

Jing Lingzhi raised his head, staring quietly at Su Qi with black and white eyes, and repeated: "Master, he is not some lonely ghost."

"You!!" Su Qi's chest heaved and he glared at Jing Lingzhi, his internal energy swelled out uncontrollably under his anger, smashing the weeds and fallen leaves at his feet.

In an instant, it seemed that time had stood still, black clouds were pressing down on the city, and even the air was so sticky with each breath.

Under the heavy pressure, Jing Lingzhi's body without inner strength screamed and trembled, the veins in the tightly clenched hand on the side of his body burst out, and the wound that had not been bandaged for a long time cracked again, and a little bit of waxy, wet and snow-white bandage slowly spread outward, Mixed with the dried blood on the coat.

Even so, Jing Lingzhi was still unwilling to give in, and stood upright on the spot, just looking at Su Qi peacefully, neither begging for mercy, nor retreating.

I don't know how long it took, and when she was extremely angry, Su Qi returned to her original calmness, without showing any emotion on her face, and asked in a flat tone: "Do you know who you are?"

"I am the leader of the Hengjiao Shadow Guard Battalion."

"Do you know your responsibility?"

"Be the master's sword and the master's shield."

"Who is your master?"

"It's... the leader of Hengjiao, Su Hongyu." The only few times he called the master's name directly was under such circumstances.Really, really...

Every time I asked, a big mountain fell on Jing Lingzhi's back, making him breathless, making him slowly lower his head, slowly hunched his body, slowly crushing all his innocence and delusion, and forcing him to look directly at him. cruel reality.

"If you don't want to do anything, then let me do it." Throwing these words, Su Qi was about to walk away.

One stood in front of him.

Su Qi watched silently as her apprentice stepped in front of him, bowed her head and knelt on the ground.

No words, but a wordless request.

What are you asking for?There was a trace of disappointment and fatigue in Su Qi's eyes.

What I want is to let him let go of the... person who occupies the body of the master, no, the little master.

He promised his master that he would protect the little master just like protecting his master.

Once, he was powerless to his master's death, but now, he is ignorant of his little master's passing.

12 years, a full 12 years!He has gray hair, wrinkles, and looks like he is going to die.

The whole 12 years of persistence turned out to be nothing in the end!

Su Qi admits that that person is not bad, and he treats others like a gentleman.

After seeing a gentleman, Yunhu was not happy.

He is not surprised that the apprentice would like such a person.

so what?

He was the Shadow Guard, and the very existence of that man was a mistake.Correcting this mistake is his only choice.

This is his loyalty to his master.

Even if you risk your life, even if you betray your relatives, even if you have a sword fight with your apprentice, you will not hesitate.

Su Qi closed her eyes not to look at the apprentice who was still kneeling, raised her head, took a deep breath, and then let it out slowly.

With the exhalation, distracting thoughts were suppressed in the bottom of my heart, and the rest settled to the ultimate calmness: "Ling Zhi, get out of the way."

Having been together for so many years, in simple words, it is enough for Jing Lingzhi to know Su Qi's changes.He knew too well what kind of person Master was, and he had already anticipated how Master would react.

The master had already doubted the master before, but he was not sure, so he stood still.

This layer of cloth was completely pierced by the little boss, and now it is useless to blame myself for being too slow at that time.

He didn't want to meet his master in battle, and he didn't want to see his two most important people fight to the death.

What should he do?what can he do

As calm as Jing Lingzhi, there is only a blank in his mind.

What is Master talking about?Want to see how your martial arts has improved?

Then let's fight.

The wound is clamoring for pain, is it because of too much blood loss?Why is there darkness in front of my eyes?Maybe he hasn't recovered from the previous melee?Otherwise, why, the hand that has always been steady as a rock is shaking?

The body is accumulating strength, and the cold hilt of the sword is held in the palm of his hand.

One standing, one kneeling, different postures, the same opening gesture, the same high concentration after abandoning all emotions, the same black clothes, and the same facial expressions.

As expected of a teacher!

The clouds stop, the wind stops.

The sense of killing is spreading, and the aura of both sides is soaring, and they are about to reach their peak...

"Subordinate Ying San, please see the commander and teach."

The sudden accident caused the two opposing killing intents to stagnate, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Jing Lingzhi asked, "What's the matter?"

Knowing that he came at the wrong time, Ying San didn't dare to look at the two of them more: "Master Yi Ge ordered my subordinates to lead and teach them."

"Understood, back off"
