Chapter 7 Obsessed
Hearing the screams of the crazy woman behind him, Tiedan didn't even bother to look back at her. He climbed down the mountain path of Swallow Peak in silence. In a breath, he had descended Swallow Peak and arrived at the mountain hut halfway up the mountain where the disciples and boys of Guangxia Mountain were temporarily staying.

It was still early, the sun had not yet risen, the house was quiet, and the other boys were still asleep.

Tiedan is used to going to bed late and getting up early, and Jianjia is muttering about wanting to avenge her lover, so the two of them are competing with each other and get up very early, and the early bird gets the worm.

Tiedan went to the backyard pond alone, fetched some water and washed the blood off his face. He looked up and saw a figure in the pond.

"Senior brother."

"Why, she's bothering you again."

While he was wiping his face, Senior Brother Zhou appeared with squinting eyes and threw a pill.

"Ah."

Tiedan took it and skillfully broke it into two halves. He ground one half into powder and applied it on the wound to stop the bleeding, and put the other half into his mouth under his tongue, then sat down by the pool to absorb the medicinal effects.

Senior Brother Zhou narrowed his eyes and glanced at him. Seeing that there was nothing dirty, it was clear that he had not done anything serious. He casually offered some advice.
"You won't fight back against her two swords? Even if you only kill or injure her, you can have some peace for a few days."

Tiedan shook his head.
"magic weapon."

"Uh, okay..."

Senior Brother Zhou understood immediately. Even the maids in the Marquis' Mansion had magic weapons to protect them. They could not be broken or killed by just a sword. Once they failed, they would lose the chance to escape. A poor guy like Tiedan, who had nothing on him, would be seriously injured if he was not careful in a fight with people who had a lot of magic weapons. He didn't even have medicine to heal his wounds. Naturally, it was not worth it.

Zhou Feng was helpless now. His master still owed her a life. Could he kill her with a sword? He could only shake his head and let them go.

It is really difficult for others to interfere in this matter. After all, apart from the connection of old relationship, the rules of Beichen Sword Sect have never prohibited disciples from fighting with swords, and even encourage fighting among fellow disciples.

A true sword duel to the death? On the one hand, it can encourage and train disciples so that they don't neglect their practice. On the other hand, it can also eliminate the dross and retain the essence, filter out the good and the bad, and save the sect's elixir, magic tools, and foundation-building rations...

So since Shen Jianjia became the disciple, she never forgot to avenge her lover who died in front of her.

At first, she knew she was no match for her enemies, so she didn't dare to go too far and practiced hard to avoid trouble. But these days, relying on the training resources of the carriage in the Marquis's Mansion, the foundation laid by her tutor, and the secret sword technique passed down by Master Chen, she has now taken the lead and successfully built her foundation.

Now she got really excited and went to Yanzi Peak every few days. She didn't dare to take action in front of her senior brother, so she ambushed on the top of the mountain, waiting to ambush and assassinate Tiedan when he was alone while refining Qi.

After all, I am just a girl, not a man, so there is no need for me to fight with you openly. Besides, even if you invite me to a sword fight openly, Tiedan will not be so stupid as to accept it.

But Tiedan doesn't care.

In fact, he had seen many life and death situations since he was a child. He would be bitten by a dog even when trying to grab a piece of meat. He was beaten for no reason and had been on the verge of life and death many times. He really couldn't stand one or two more inexplicable lunatics trying to kill him.

Moreover, he actually did it secretly, and tried to fight back by reciprocating the favor.

Well, Tiedan was actually jealous of these rich people. He figured that if he could kill that crazy woman and seize the marquis's cart of treasures, he would not only have enough money to build his foundation, but he would also have enough materials to cultivate to the Golden Core realm in the future.

So Tiedan took advantage of the time when Jianjia was practicing, bathing, sleeping and regulating her breathing, and when she underestimated the enemy and was unprepared, he used sword energy from his mouth to stab her twice, but unfortunately he was unsuccessful.

After all, if it was just a magic weapon, he might still be able to give it a try, but after Tiedan tried, he found that the other party, in addition to the dead marquis's sword that could cut through iron like mud, actually had at least three magic weapons!

There is a golden bell on the waist. If you lurk too close or stare too long, it will sense the hostility and automatically ring the bell to warn you.

There is a golden bracelet on his wrist, which will create a Qi shield in front of his body, greatly weakening the sword power of the Shengang Sword Qi. With Tiedan's current sword power, he can only break through the corners of the Qi shield and it is difficult to break it head-on.

In addition, this crazy woman also wears a spiritual silk bellyband with talismans engraved on it, and she never takes it off even when bathing. It is used to protect her body, ward off evil spirits and remove filth, and it can also emit spiritual energy to speed up the healing of wounds.

Although Tiedan also used the inner elixir dug out from the human head to nourish himself, open up the Shengang Sword Meridian, and cultivate the circulation of Zhoutian Qi in his body, he was now stuck at the stage of building the foundation and could not break through. He could only repeatedly refine a mouthful of sword Qi.

With only one breath of Qi, he could not use any of the sect's superior sword techniques. The sword Qi he sprayed from his mouth had a limited range after all. He also had to avoid being discovered by Jin Ling and could not focus on the opponent's weaknesses when making his move. Therefore, even if he broke the golden bracelet shield, it would be difficult for him to pierce through the protective bellyband. It was really difficult to do.

After being ambushed by Tiedan several times, Jianjia has become alert. This crazy woman is also very cunning. She used the excuse of gender differences and mentioned it to Chen Huzi several times. So, considering the care of the female family members, Chen Huzi gave the house in the maple forest at the foot of the mountain to Jianjia to live in, and also set up a formation to protect her, so that Tiedan could not attack her at night.

In addition, this crazy woman went up the mountain to listen to lectures every day, and she had taken sufficient precautions. She usually hid in the carriage that contained countless treasures to rest. There were many talismans pasted in the carriage, the wheels were made of steel bars, and the compartments were hidden with iron plates. There were also crossbows in the carriage that could shoot hidden darts and poisonous arrows at any time, making it even more difficult to get close to her and it was difficult to get a chance to assassinate her.

Difficult.

Without building the foundation, no spells or sword moves can be used. It is difficult to break his protective magic weapon with just a breath of sword energy. But the other party has a lot of resources to rely on. Now that he has broken through the foundation building level, the gap between the two sides will only get bigger and bigger. Coupled with the gap in many magic weapons, I am afraid the situation will become more and more dangerous.

Or maybe poison it. At least in front of Senior Brothers Yue and Zhou, the crazy woman and Tiedan can't do it, and everyone usually eats together. When spring comes, if we can find some Aconitum and secretly mix it into the food, maybe there is still a chance...

"what!"

Suddenly a scream was heard from inside the house. Smelling fresh blood, Tiedan immediately fell to the ground, looking around and listening carefully.

Zhou Feng also dodged and flew back from the snowy forest. He glanced at Tiedan and pushed the door open to check.

Tiedan waited for a while and then went in through the door to take a look.

The big bed was covered in blood, with pieces of broken flesh and corpses, as if a water jar had been broken on the bed, and the gushing blood was overflowing from the bed and flowing all over the room.

"Ah, ah..."

Tiedan took a look and found that two of the six boys were dead, one was disabled, one was disemboweled, one was cut in half, and the other had his thigh chopped off. Blood was gushing out and he had fainted from the pain.

Looking at their smooth broken bones and wounds, as well as the sword marks on the bed, it was clear that they were cut by the sword energy.

The three boys on the bed opposite were also awakened. They were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they were unable to speak.

Tiedan looked at the bloody mess on the bed and was silent for a moment.

Because he also sleeps in this bed.

If he hadn't gotten up early to go to the top of the mountain to practice Qi in order to guard against the crazy woman's sneak attack, he would probably have died.

"The sword energy is running wild... Either he's practicing in secret, or he had a nightmare and went astray."

Zhou Feng narrowed his eyes and checked it out. He understood it clearly. He touched the acupoints of the boy with broken legs to stop bleeding. He raised his hand and carried him on his shoulder. He looked at the few people who were frightened and incontinent, and threw a healing pill to Tiedan.

"Clean it up and send it to the medicine garden to be used as fertilizer for the flowers."

"Yes."

So Tiedan went to the warehouse to find a cart and a hoe, took the two bodies and one leg, wrapped them in a hemp mat, put them on the cart, and pushed them down the mountain along the stone path.

Well, I've gone too far.

This kind of thing is actually very common. After all, sword Qi is meant to kill people, and refining Qi will of course result in death.

Even if one is practicing ordinary cultivation techniques, once the Qi is interrupted while practicing, one may go astray and become possessed. In the worst case, the whole body may become paralyzed, or the body may explode and die.

When it comes to the sword immortals who observe swords and refine Qi, the consequences are naturally even more cruel, and they often end up being beheaded by flying swords or killed by disembowelment.

When cultivating the Qi body, one must be focused. Any mistake can harm both others and yourself.

So even though he knew that there was a crazy woman lurking outside the mountain, preparing to plot against him, Tiedan still had to find a quiet place to practice in seclusion alone. That's the reason.

Therefore, the crazy woman couldn't chase Tiedan and chop him all day long. She would usually come to assassinate him only once every ten days or half a month. After all, if she failed and exhausted her Qi, she would have to go into seclusion to breathe, practice carefully, and stabilize her foundation of Taoism.

So in the eyes of the Sword Sect elders, rather than a fight to the death, it was more like the two of them practicing together, each trying to catch up with the other and making progress together...

They pushed the cart to the medicinal garden at the foot of the mountain and dragged the body to the flower bed to bury it. Suddenly, something flashing fell from one of the bodies.

Tiedan took a look and saw a red jade, shining blood-red in the morning light.

When I picked it up and took a look, I saw that the jade was as red as blood, and on the jade pendant was carved a woman's face, whose beauty was so stunning that it could overshadow the moon and flowers.

Tiedan couldn't tell whether it was a decorative toy or a magic weapon. However, the blood of the boy stained the jade, and it looked more and more charming, vivid and lifelike, as if the pair of beautiful eyes were about to open slowly...

However, Tiedan had no reaction to this kind of seductive technique. After all, he had seen many stunning beauties since he was a child, and each of them was a crazy woman who wanted him dead.

So Tiedan wiped the blood off the jade, put it into his sleeve, and continued to work.

We have to bury the person quickly before that crazy woman comes.
