Chapter 388: Searching for the Knife
Qi Wei thought he had found an opportunity.
With a move, he violently choked Su Jian's throat!
This is also the strongest blow he has accumulated all his strength, and he doesn't think that Su Jian still has the opportunity and means to resist.
Murong Xiu was taken aback when he saw Qi Wei choking Su Jian's throat.
She regretted a little that she really shouldn't have spoken, and created an opportunity for Qi Wei to kill with one blow.
However, Murong Xiu's worries were superfluous, and when Qi Wei's five fingers strangled Su Jian's throat, it also completely stimulated the strongest desire to survive that was dormant in Su Jian's body.
His palm suddenly slapped on the handle of the dagger, and it didn't take much physical strength for the dagger to pierce Qi Wei's throat.
The strength on Qi Wei's fingers disappeared instantly, and he fell down with fear and unwillingness.
He didn't believe until he died that he would be the first to fall.
Su Jian and Murong Xiu looked at each other, and the expressions in their eyes were extremely complicated.
The two of them were safe for the time being, but this place was far from safe.
- The outside is full of people from the Ten Thousand Swords Hall.
Once someone rushed in and saw that their hall master had been killed, Su Jian and Murong Xiu still couldn't escape their fate.
Especially Murong Xiu is now disheveled, and it is easy to tempt people to commit crimes.
The worst thing is that now Murong Xiu can't move, and Su Jian can't help her.
It seemed that the two of them could only escape by waiting for Su Jian to slowly recover his strength and unlock the acupoint for Murong Xiu.
But even if the people of Wanjian Hall break into the secret room, will Su Jian unlock the acupoints for her?
Will Su Jian take the opportunity to bully her like Qi Wei and Murong Xiu?
Murong Xiu's heart was full of despair about this world.
"We can make a deal," Su Jian broke the silence first.
"What deal?" Murong Xiu asked vigilantly.
When a guy offers to make a deal with a beautiful woman, what does that usually mean?
"I'll unlock the acupoint for you, and you tell me where my knife is?"
This transaction is very fair, strictly speaking, it is more beneficial to Murong Xiu.
After all, it's a knife for a life.
But in Su Jian's opinion, that scimitar was also his life, and he didn't suffer at all.
He even thought that his sword was much more precious than Murong Xiu's life.
"Okay!" Murong Xiu hesitated for a moment, and immediately agreed.
At this time, she shouldn't have hesitated, but Su Jian didn't dwell on this.
"Do you still have the strength to solve my acupoints?" asked Murong Xiu suspiciously.
"You can try it!" Su Jian groped out two small medicine bottles from Qi Wei's body, the white medicine bottle contained the medicine powder, and the red medicine bottle contained the pills, whether taken internally or externally, they were already the best healing medicine.
Su Jian took two pills, and then poured all the medicinal powder on his various wounds.
Because the wound was too big by the wolf's tooth whip, a bottle of medicinal powder was not enough at all, so he staggered to Murong Mingzhu's side and searched for the healing medicine on Murong Mingzhu's body.
After dressing the wound, Su Jian took a breath and rested for a while, feeling that he had some strength in his body, so he stood up and found a pair of scissors, cut some strips of cloth from Qi Wei's clothes, and carefully bandaged his wounds.
He knew very well that it would not be easy to escape from here, and that he had to take care of his wounds and then cheer up.
He didn't know if anyone from the Murong family would find him here, and who was Qi Wei doing things for?
In short, the most important thing is to find your scimitar first.
As long as he has a knife in his hand, even if he is seriously injured, he is sure to rely on his own strength to escape to a safe place.
Su Jian walked to Murong Xiu's side and unlocked the acupoint for her without hesitation.
Although he is in pain now, and he is hungry and thirsty because he has not eaten water and rice for two days, he is also confident that Murong Xiu can no longer hurt him.
"Thank you!" Murong Xiu let out a sigh of relief, she hurriedly tidied up her clothes, retrieved her saber and hung it around her waist, and said to Su Jian, "I'll take you to get the scimitar back now, I hope it's safe outside." ”
"Where is the knife?" Su Jian suddenly asked.
He wanted to test whether Murong Xiu really knew the whereabouts of the scimitar?
"The scimitar is hidden in the secret room of the reception hall of the Ten Thousand Swords Hall, and I saw Qi Wei hiding there with my own eyes," Murong Xiu glanced at Su Jian with some puzzlement and said, "There are so many divine weapons in the world, why do you want to cling to a knife that looks ordinary? Could it be that that knife has any special meaning to you? Or are you not worthy of being Su Jian without that knife?"
"There are probably all the reasons you said," Su Jian didn't want to discuss too much with Murong Xiu about the origin of the scimitar and the meaning of this knife to him, "Let's go to the living room!"
The door to the secret room opened, and outside was a spacious study.
There are several rows of bookshelves in the study, and the shelves are all beautifully packaged and antique books.
There are four books and five classics, biographies of celebrities, the Art of War, and martial arts cheats.
This is the study of the hall master, so whether it is the interior decoration or the books themselves, they are very advanced, and there are Qi Wei's cronies guarding the outside, and no one dares to break into the study without the order of the hall master.
It's hard to imagine that under such an exquisite and quaint study, there is actually a hellish torture chamber.
There were not many torture instruments in this torture room before, Bai Wanjian has always advocated subduing people with virtue, and most of his subordinates respect him very much.
However, since Bai Xiangting sought to seize the position of hall master, he has always suffered from the torment of conscience, and feels that many subordinates are dissatisfied and disloyal to him, so he began to add a large number of torture instruments to the torture chamber to interrogate and execute those suspected of being disloyal to him.
When Qi Wei became the hall master, it was because he was not as good as the previous hall masters in terms of martial arts and prestige, and he only relied on his desperate loyalty to Bai Xiang Pavilion to temporarily take the throne when Bai Xiang Pavilion fled in a hurry.
Therefore, his heart is even weaker, and he needs more force and torture to make his subordinates submit.
As soon as the two arrived at the door of the study, Su Jian suddenly grabbed Murong Xiu's hand and hid behind a tall and large bookshelf.
Murong Xiu really admired Su Jian before, and when Murong Mingzhu wanted to do wrong to her once, she did say that she would not marry a peerless master like Su Jian.
But that was mostly to anger Murong Mingzhu and dispel Murong Mingzhu's intentions against her, when she had never met a man, how could she really be tempted by that man?
Not to mention making a promise.
But now that the two of them were so close, and Su Jian was holding her little hand tightly, feeling the strength and heat brought to her by those hands, Murong Xiu inexplicably felt a wonderful throbbing in her heart.
From the hostility just now to the fact that they are both fallen people at the end of the world, this change in identity also made Murong Xiu suddenly no longer hate Su Jian so much.
She just didn't know why Su Jian wanted her to hide it?
