On the collapsed ruins, only the beams were left leaning and staggered.

Under the ruins, the bricks and tiles were kept arching up, as if an unkillable monster was buried and was about to break out of the ground.

Amidst the ringing in his ears, Chen Yu lowered his body and drew the short knife from his sleeve while he leaned forward. He made a total of three bamboo tube firearms, threw one to the golden pig, and the remaining two were used to blow up Si Cao.

There were no spare firearms at that time, so he could only kill with a knife.

The next moment, there was a loud bang and bricks and stones flew in all directions.

Among the rubble and ruins, Shopkeeper Yuan stood up from the rubble with a heavy wooden beam on his head.

His hair was disheveled, and his golden crown was blown away to nowhere.

Shopkeeper Yuan's body was covered with broken iron fragments, his face was bloody and bloody, and blood and dust were mixed together. A bright red satin robe was draped in tatters on his body, like a midnight ghost.

He raised his hand to rub his eyes. After the explosion, so much dust and gravel burst into his eyes that he couldn't open them no matter how hard he tried.

However, it was at this moment that he suddenly discovered that his right hand seemed to have been blown off and he could not lift it up at all.

firearm!

This is the firearm of the Ning Dynasty!

Shopkeeper Yuan is the same as Jin Zhu. They have both seen firearms, but they have never seen such a powerful firearm!

Firearms from the Ning Dynasty were used on the battlefield for just over a hundred years.

The gunpowder initially used a thick bamboo tube as the body, and was filled with gunpowder and a shell. The gunpowder at this time was not even powerful enough to explode the bamboo tube. After being fired several times in a row, the bamboo tube was discarded.

In recent decades, the Ning Dynasty replaced iron cylinders to carry more powerful gunpowder. However, the gunpowder at this time was still not perfect. There was no purification process and the formula ratio was wrong. It was only used on the frontal battlefield to contain the Jing Dynasty cavalry.

charge.

When Shopkeeper Yuan faced the bamboo tube, although he knew that he had no time to dodge, he did not feel that this thing could kill him. At most, it would leave his skin and flesh bruised, but not his muscles and bones.

But Chen Ji's gunpowder in a bamboo tube was far more powerful than he imagined!

Even the house was blown down!

Shopkeeper Yuan reluctantly opened his eyes. His left eye was filled with blood and his eyeballs were extremely scarlet. Only his right eye was left and he could barely see.

He quickly looked around in front of him, but found that there was no one in front of him: "The masters of Ningchao's secret espionage department surrounded me. Do you still need to hide in Tibet?"

From the beginning to the end, Shopkeeper Yuan didn't even see a trace of his body.

He was blown up by gunpowder, so he thought it was an expert from the Secret Service who came with a firearm, and didn't even make any guesses about Chen Ji!

But no one in the yard answered him, only a short knife stabbed through the wind.

Shopkeeper Yuan leaned over and easily dodged the knife stabbed at his neck, but the traces did not stop. He was stabbed three times in succession at the mouth of his back vest, his spleen on his lower back, and his left leg before retreating.

But Chen Ji suddenly discovered that except for the knife on the thigh, everything else was empty!

No, it’s not a stab in the air!

But Shopkeeper Yuan is dressed in copper skin and iron bones, which he practices in Kung Fu, and ordinary daggers cannot pierce him. No wonder he can still stand up after the gunpowder explosion!

But the opponent probably wasn't tough all over, otherwise there would be no need to dodge the stabbing in the neck.

At this time, Shopkeeper Yuan ignored the blood flowing from his thigh, turned around with one eye closed, and stared at Chen Ji fiercely: "What's that about you? You secretly hid the firearms given by Prince Jing's Palace and the Liu Family?!"

Chen Ji didn't answer, just silently thinking about how he should kill this brown bear-like Shopkeeper Yuan. He didn't know what kind of official career he had cultivated, as if he would never be able to kill him.

In the blink of an eye, Shopkeeper Yuan rushed over like a chariot, and Chen Ji immediately stepped back and started circling in the yard.

But Chen Ji hadn't even taken two steps when he saw Shopkeeper Yuan kicking up a piece of brick and whizzing towards him.

Bang!

Broken bricks passed by Chen Yi's ears, and the howling wind blew his hair, hitting the wall not far away and shattering into pieces.

This kick was so terrifying that if shopkeeper Yuan hadn't lost one eye and lost his accuracy, Chen Ji would have died on the spot!

Shopkeeper Yuan was enraged when he missed the target, and kicked the bricks away one after another. The bricks whizzed past like firecrackers, becoming more and more accurate and fierce!

Bang!

A piece of brick hit Chen Ji's back, causing him to roll away with just this blow.

Chen Ji felt that his heart and lungs had been knocked out of position, but he didn't dare to stop for a moment and got up and continued running for his life. Before he could run a few steps, he saw Shopkeeper Yuan kicking the bricks and stones one after another, hitting him in the back of the heart.

with the right leg.

Chen Ji fell down again, and the dagger flew five or six meters away. He tried to stand up, but he couldn't stand firm.

Shopkeeper Yuan strode to Chen Ji's side. He lowered his broken right hand and stretched out his left hand to twist Chen Ji's neck.

But that’s just this moment!

In the silent silence, Chen Ji, who was lying on the ground, suddenly turned over and faced Shopkeeper Yuan!

Shopkeeper Yuan stared into Chen Ji's eyes, and suddenly felt that there was no despair in them, only calm.

No, no!

This is not the look in the eyes of a dying person!

While breathing, the sword seed that had been accumulated in Chen Ji's body for several days came to his fingertips along his meridians like a swimming dragon!

Use the stars to nourish your sword and defeat all things and all laws!

The incident happened suddenly and at such a close distance, Shopkeeper Yuan could not avoid it.

I saw invisible sword energy shooting past the carotid artery of Shopkeeper Yuan's neck, and a blood arrow suddenly spurted out!

The sword species that old man Yao once teased She Dengke for being a fart was only the power that Chen Ji had cultivated for an hour.

These days, Chen Ji is learning swordsmanship from Feng Huai while raising his sword, patiently waiting for this invisible sword energy to become his final trump card.

Chen Ji grasped Shopkeeper Yuan's fingers with both hands, slowly opened the fat hand, dropped it to the ground and coughed violently.

Shopkeeper Yuan covered his neck in disbelief and stepped back step by step. Blood gurgled out from between his fingers, quickly draining all his strength.

"When did you become an official? This is a sword training method. How do you know how to raise a sword in the martial arts temple?! Did your mother teach you, but how can she master the method of raising a sword..."

"The path to sword cultivation..."

"It turns out to be a sword-type method!"

Shopkeeper Yuan collapsed suddenly.

Chen Ji sat paralyzed on the ground, he held up his palms, and suddenly sporadic snowflakes floated in the sky. The snowflakes melted immediately when they fell on his palms.

He was a little confused for a while, and finally killed Shopkeeper Yuan?

That night, he first saved the Crown Prince and Bai Li, and then dragged his wounds to assassinate Shopkeeper Yuan. It was not yet dawn, but it seemed as if he had survived a long season, from autumn to winter.

Before he could come to his senses, the sound of horse hooves could be heard on the street... The Secret Service had arrived!

Chen Ji struggled to get up and wanted to flee the scene quickly, but as soon as he stood up, he fell down again. The last brick kicked up by Shopkeeper Yuan fell on his leg, opening the wound on his leg.

It's a critical moment.

There were footsteps not far away, and someone said in a solemn voice: "So you are here, I have been looking for you all night!"

Chen Ji was stunned, this voice was extremely familiar.

…

…

At the end of Tongji Street, dozens of war horses were galloping towards them. The golden pig was sitting on the horse with a calm expression.

He was in Hongyi Alley a few miles away, and just as he was about to lead his men to retreat, he heard the familiar explosion sound again.

Jin Zhu never expected that the Jing Dynasty thief who possessed firearms did not escape, but instead fled to other parts of Luo City to commit major crimes.

But the sound of the explosion was a bit strange, as it seemed to come from where merchants gathered. Jin Zhu thought for a long time and couldn't figure out what the Jing Chao thieves could do here.

But the revenge of an explosion must be avenged.

The golden pig took the lead and galloped into Tongji Street. He could see the smoke and dust flying from a distance: "Come here, seal off the entire area around Tongji Street. From tonight, only people are allowed in but not out. Every inch of this place will be turned over."

, don’t let out even a single earthworm!”

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw a crow suddenly falling down in the dark night.

The crow was like a black wind when it rose and fell, and everyone could not even see its specific appearance, it was so fast.

The crow did not fight with people, but pecked the eyes of the war horses again and again, causing the horses to fly high in fright, spreading their hooves in an attempt to get rid of the crows, and even threw the spies to the ground.

But he saw the golden pig rising up from the horse's back, putting one foot on the saddle and leaping towards the crow in the air.

Unable to withstand the force of the backlash, the war horse knelt on the ground, and his fat figure passed by the crow... He didn't catch it!

The golden pig was immediately startled. The crow seemed to be faster than him: "What is this? How can there be such a powerful crow... Xingguan?!"

"Use the crossbow! Shoot it down!"

The secret spies took out their hand crossbows from their waists and shot into the night sky, but the crows moved around and made rattling sounds, easily dodging the crossbow arrows and laughing at them.

Golden Pig was sure that this must be some kind of official career, but when he recalled all the official career paths he knew, he knew nothing about this kind of official career, as if the other party had never appeared in history.

How could it be?
