Strengthening starts from the county magistrate

Chapter 326 Killer

"Since you're here, why not be aboveboard." Shen Mu whispered.

at this time,

Behind the outer wall of the house not far away, an ordinary-looking man was standing.

He was dressed in commoner clothes that common people in Fengjiang usually wear, and carried two sets of firewood on a wooden stick.

It seems that he just came back from chopping firewood outside the city, an ordinary scene.

Shen Mu could have noticed it.

The man is still leaning against the wall at this moment, not moving half a step, his eyes are lowered, only those eyes that alternate light and dark give people a sharp feeling.

At this time, he was also very curious. He didn't understand why he could still be seen if he was so careful and restrained his realm aura.

Besides, he had just arrived in Fengjiang City not long ago, and he was caught in the face before everything was done. He was really unwilling.

This city is really evil.

Because everyone in the alleys seems to have an unusually powerful aura, which is faintly visible and very strange.

Seeing that the man showed no intention of moving, Shen Mu said again: "It's not bad to conceal it. Indeed, the people in Fengjiang often chop firewood, but you should have just arrived in Fengjiang. There is one thing that you may not know. I sealed Xinjiang a long time ago. People, there is no need to chop firewood anymore!"

"...?" Behind the far wall.

The man's eyes were full of strangeness after hearing the words, so it wasn't because he leaked his breath, but just because of a mistake in disguise?
In fact, Shen Mu didn't lie to him. In Fengjiang City, there is indeed no one who cuts firewood like him, and then chooses a house by himself.

Because Shen Mu made a lot of daily life talismans, which were occasionally distributed to people in the frontier. In addition to self-heating talismans, there are also ignited talismans and so on.

Furthermore, there are now [-] monks in Fengjiang, and such small physical tasks as chopping firewood can be used for more than half a year if they do it casually.

So just after spring, the firewood for the people in Fengjiang has already been finished and piled up in the small courtyard of their homes.

In short, to sum up, Shen Mu found a flaw.

But what really made him feel dangerous was the extremely subtle information fed back to him by the roots of the Sophora poplar ancestral tree.

That is the fluctuation of this person's vitality, although it is unusually obscure.

But there is still a trace detected by the ground net, and it is extraordinarily pure.

It is already impossible for ordinary people to carry vitality, not to mention that it is so pure that even the pagoda tree is a bit greedy.

Even if it is difficult for Shen Mu to spy on the other party, he can still be sure that this person must be a master of martial arts.

a long time.

The man behind the wall knew that there was no way to retreat, then sighed, put down the two sets of firewood on his shoulders, and then walked out from the corner alley with a thick wooden stick.

The person looked at Shen Mu with a calm expression, and then slowly said: "I have to say, I have been very careful, but I didn't expect you to find it, so...you deliberately came to such a remote alley for the purpose of Lead me out?"

When Shen Mu heard the other party's words, half of the stone in his heart was put down.

Before that, he thought that the other party had seen the purpose of his trip, and it would be a disaster if he paid attention to Suo Longjing.

If you threaten yourself and spread the news about Suolongjing, it will be a big loss.

At that time, the monks in the city will have to swarm over and start fighting for the control of Suolongjing.

But listen to what he said.

It seems that he didn't see the process of exploring the well before, and thought that he was leading him out of the cave, so he came here.

But since the other party gave a reason, Fang Mu naturally followed suit.

After all, the matter of locking Longjing should not be known to outsiders.

Shen Mu smiled and said: "There should be many people, but I didn't expect that you are the only one, which is somewhat boring."

When the man heard this, his facial expression was still stiff, but his eyes turned cold: "Sure enough, this is all planned by you. You deliberately let me see you coming here, and then wait for me to chase you."

Shen Mu was noncommittal, then looked at him, and asked softly: "So, are you alone? Tell me, where did you come from, and what is your purpose?"

The man said contemptuously: "Hmph, you arrogant man, I am enough to deal with you alone. Why do you need outsiders to participate? As for the others, I don't think I need to ask any more questions. Naturally, I will kill you."

As soon as the words fell, the man stretched out his hand and shook it. The thick wooden stick in his hand suddenly exploded, and sawdust flew across.

And after the sawdust turned to ashes, a wide sword was actually hidden in the stick, the blade was slightly longer, and the cold light was threatening.

Shen Mu frowned slightly, he didn't expect that he was actually a swordsman.

The man held the sword in one hand, his stiff face gradually became blurred, and then changed into another face, much more natural and elegant.

Seeing the man's cross-dressing in front of him, Shen Mu knew that this man probably didn't want to pretend anymore.

And the showdown meant that he was ready to kill himself without hesitation.

"The Nanjing Dynasty is now confronting the army of Dongzhou, right? You still have the strength to kill me secretly?"

The man was taken aback when he heard the words, and then nodded with a smile: "Shen Mu, you do have some brains. Since you can guess my identity, you should know what will happen. King Jingkang will not let you go, and I, Helan Sword Sect, even more impossible!"

It really is Helan Sword Sect!
In fact, it is not difficult for Shen Mu to guess the identity of the enemy now.

Because there are only two feuds, Leiyunshan and the Nanjing Dynasty, and the ancestor of Leiyunshan suffered a lot before, and he didn't dare to come again for a short time. At the same time, the man in front of him is still a sword cultivator, so it is easy to guess It turns out that the other party is from Helan Sword Sect.

So that day, after the master of the Helan Sword Sect failed to attack with a sword, he secretly left a killer behind.

Shen Mu spoke slowly: "Which one of the five great sword immortals of the Helan Sword Sect are you?"

The man's eyes narrowed slightly, and his murderous aura gradually rose: "Helan Jiacheng is my senior brother, and Xue Linyi is the son of King Jingkang. You killed so many people in the Nanjing Dynasty, and you will pay for your life. It's okay to tell you before you die. Remember, the person who killed you is called He Landi!"

The voice just fell.

The broad sword in the man's hand shook suddenly, and the ground was actually shaken with huge holes.

He pinched a formula with his left hand, and then the surrounding air fluctuated, like a mask covering the area around Suolongjing.

Although Shen Mu didn't know what Taoism this was, but he generally understood that it should be similar to the isolation formation.

He Landi knew that Shen Mu had many helpers in Fengjiang City.

So set up a large isolation array.

And within this period of time, it was enough for him to kill Shen Mu.

After all, he is a sword cultivator at the peak of the Immortal Ascension Boundary, so killing a dragon gate is naturally more than enough.

Swish!
An incomparably mighty sword gang, as fast as thunder, suddenly hit Shenmu.

The speed was so fast that Shen Mu didn't even see He Landi's movement of raising the sword clearly, and the sword gang had already arrived in front of him!

Boom!
There was a clash of sword qi.

Duxiu suddenly got out of her sheath!

It lay across Shen Mu's chest.
