"Bang..."
Zhang Yitian only felt a tingle in his right hand holding the black gold ancient knife, and even there was a trace of itching pain in the palm of his hand.
At this time, the blade he waved stopped abruptly at a distance of less than half a meter from his body. It was also a weapon that could prevent Zhang Yitian from hitting with all his strength.
It was a short sword with dark red waves in the middle of the night. The body of the sword was faintly visible in the night, and even people could feel its powerful energy from the inside out.
The most important thing is that the person holding the dagger can barely see a fuzzy face against the faint light of the dagger.
However, he was sure that he did not know this person, and had never had any intersection with this person before.
Weapons collided and smoke rose everywhere at his feet. Zhang Yitian already felt a little hard, and the other party was no better.
"Who are you?" Zhang Yitian asked coldly.
The other party's eyes tightened slightly in the dark, and Zhang Yitian could even feel the murderous spirit emanating from the other party from the inside out.
"Boy, I didn't expect that your ability is beyond my imagination!" the man's voice changes. Listening to the voice, Zhang Yitian can also detect that the man's age is at least about 50.
Of course, most importantly, this person is also a force.
"I'm asking you!" Zhang Yitian resolutely asked, "what's your intention?"
In fact, before asking this sentence, Zhang Yitian already had the answer in his heart. Since this person can follow himself silently, of course, it is for the jade pendant.
It seems that the people who stare at the jade pendant are far beyond Zhang Yitian's imagination.
"Me? Ha ha..." the man sneered, "you don't deserve to know my identity. In my opinion, you are a dispensable little role, but they still think you are the key. This idea is simply naive."
They? key?
Zhang Yitian secretly feigned all kinds of fragmented messages revealed in the man's words.
Who are they in his mouth? What is the key? What does what he said have to do with the whole thing?
"Then what is your purpose?" Zhang Yitian asked again.
The man gasped for breath and just smiled coldly: "you said my purpose? Of course, it's very simple. That's to let them wake up completely and let them know that everything can only rely on themselves and others can't be relied on! Now the Xuanmen is just a group of retarded people participating. These people don't deserve the last honor, but only I can afford it!"
"Xuanmen?" Zhang Yitian blurted out subconsciously, but he didn't find anything related to the term in his memory.
"It seems that you are still very curious?" the man said arrogantly, "but so what!"
Before he finished, the man's body had moved.
He pulled his sword back, and suddenly rushed to Zhang Yitian as if he had broken away from gravity. The dark red short sword in his hand cut straight down to Zhang Yitian.
Zhang Yitian was shocked by the speed of the other party's action, and the reaction time for him was only a short moment.
The black gold ancient knife suddenly lifted up and held the handle tightly with both hands. Zhang Yitian was tentatively ready to take this move with full strength.
This is really a helpless move. Zhang Yitian wanted to avoid. It was too late, so he had to take it in a hurry.
But whether we can take it or not is still unknown.
"Bang" is another sharp impact sound, which is dull and straight into the heart and soul.
The strength of the other party was beyond Zhang Yitian's imagination. After he took the blow, just for a moment, he felt a sense of numbness in his legs. When the other party tried again, he fell to his knees.
At this time, the other party suddenly changed the direction of the short sword and cut it horizontally. Zhang Yitian was a little unprepared and had to throw out the black gold ancient knife in his hand with all his strength. Lest the other party's dagger hurt himself.
This is a helpless means of self-protection, but without weapons, Zhang Yitian knows that he has only one way to escape.
As for whether you can run away, of course, it's still two questions.
Seeing that Zhang Yitian threw a knife, the other party hurried back subconsciously and made an evasive action.
That is, at this moment, Zhang Yitian seized the opportunity and ran towards the gate of the hospital
At this time, Zhang Yitian almost ran with all his strength. He knew what would happen if he was caught by the other party. Don't say his jade pendant. It is estimated that Xiaoming will explain it.
Zhang Yitian is only eight or nine meters away from the gate of the yard. According to his ability, even if he starts, he can rush there in a second. As long as he runs out of the yard and there are open streets outside, he has a great chance to escape by taking advantage of his familiarity with the terrain.
Zhang Yitian is also convinced that the other party will be able to see his attempt.
But even for a second, the other party didn't seem to intend to give him this almost.
Zhang Yitian just felt that he had just started, and a dark shadow flashed on his side, and then a short sword with dark red ripples stood impressively on his shoulder.
"Do you think you can run?" the other party grinned.
The advantages and disadvantages have been known. Zhang Yitian finds that he can't run away.
"You won!" Zhang Yitian sighed. He was very uncomfortable with the gap in strength.
"Yes! I won. Do you still want to admit defeat?" the other party sneered.
Zhang Yitian shook his head slightly: "I didn't promise you anything. I just want to know what you're going to do with me!"
"Ha ha... You are a little self-conscious, and I like you for that!" the figure of the other party is still hidden in the dark. "But you are still going to die. I said I have to use you to wake up the innocent people in the Xuanmen!"
"It seems that I'm really going to die, isn't it?" Zhang Yitian said in a very depressed tone. Instead, he asked in a different tone, "Xuanmen? What organization is this? I'm already dying. Can you let me go without any questions? At least say it. What? I think this Xuanmen seems to be closely related to me?"
"Ha ha..." the other party sneered, "you boy, you still don't give up. Do you want to set me up? Or do you think you can not die today? Or can you escape?"
Zhang Yitian also reluctantly gave a sneer: "well, you see, I do have such an idea, but I think I can escape, you should know better than me!"
The other party seemed to hesitate for a moment. Zhang Yitian nodded when he saw the black figure: "you're right, but since you want to know, I'll just tell you. In fact, it's not only because you're a dying man, but also because I want you to know how ridiculous those people in the Xuanmen are!"
Now, hearing the Xuanmen again, Zhang Yitian has been extremely sure that this so-called Xuanmen must be some kind of organization, and it seems that it is still an extremely powerful organization. Otherwise, how can there be such a powerful person in front of him?
Moreover, from his tone, Zhang Yitian can also hear that this person is not an absolute authority in the Xuanmen, but only one of the core members.
"Tell me, what do you want to know?" asked the other party.
Zhang Yitian thought for a moment. He wanted to know everything. He seems to know everything, but he seems to know nothing.
This feeling can be overwhelming!
"Can you... Start from the beginning?" Zhang Yitian asked.
Of course, he knows very well that this is not paying to listen to the story. Even if it is one thousand and one nights, it is also holding a knife around other people's neck for others to tell the story.
The reason why Zhang Yitian is hanging now is that he is clearly held by someone else's knife around his neck, but he has to let someone else come for a while!
Do you think this is an overpass to listen to crosstalk?
Zhang Yitian's words really amused the other party, but obviously the other party was also very patient. After thinking about it, he finally nodded: "well, for the sake of decades, no one has heard me talk about these things, I'll tell you everything!"
Zhang Yitian pointed to a stone table next to the yard. There was a stone bench on each side: "go there and tell me. I guess your story is very long!"
He thought that he had mastered all of the other party and did not refuse Zhang Yitian's kindness. Even Zhang Yitian felt that the other party's eyes had changed in the dark.
The two sat down. The short sword was still on Zhang Yitian's neck. The other party also opened his mouth: "you know Liu Yin and Feng Chen!"
Zhang Yitian was surprised, but he nodded and remained silent.
The other party then said, "my name is Tong Chou!"
Tong Chou... This name
One second before hearing the name, Zhang Yitian was still muttering in his heart how could a parent give his children such a name, but the next second, his mind suddenly seemed to be hit by lightning!
Liu Yin, Feng Chen, Tong Chou!
Chou, Yin, Chen?
Since the other party mentioned these two people, it not only shows that he and the other party know each other, but also because there are some special connections between their names.
"You..." Zhang Yitian seemed to think of something, but he still couldn't figure out what he wanted to ask, but he didn't know where to start.
"Yes, we are all from Xuanmen!" Tong Chou said.
I'm rough... Then you're really miserable. It's estimated that you have twelve handles, and you have the ugliest one.
"Xuanmen is an organization, and our name is named after twelve Earthly Branches!" Tong Chou said. "Many years ago, Xuanmen had ten Heavenly Stems and twelve Earthly Branches! Each represents a family, and each family needs to choose a person to join Xuanmen! So at that time, Xuanmen had the strongest lineup, 22 people!"
"What about now?" Zhang Yitian has been keenly aware of Tong Chou's melancholy that today is different from the past.
"In the past two thousand years, Xuanmen has always been a secret and powerful existence. We have even participated in the decision-making of successive dynasties, and they are willing to have us with extraordinary abilities to join them!" Tong Chou said, "I just don't know when the Xuanmen suddenly evaporated and disappeared out of thin air! After 300 years of disappearance, that is, at the beginning of the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, the descendants of the Xuanmen families gradually came out and organized the Xuanmen again!"
"This evening is different from the past, isn't it?" Zhang Yitian suddenly asked.
The other party seems to hesitate slightly. Obviously, he doesn't like a person who has no advantage in front of him to speak to him in this tone.
But that's the truth!
"Indeed, Xuanmen has declined. For 600 years, we have never been able to participate in any core layer of this country! But..."
