Chapter 15 Blood Jade

Tiedan stared at Xiaohe's dilated pupils, waited quietly under the bed for a while, and heard footsteps.

Two maids pushed the door open and came in. They said nothing when they saw Xiao He's body. They skillfully pulled out their short knives and chopped the girl's body into pieces, disfigured her, and then picked up the body parts and the gold and silver jewelry scattered on the ground, threw them all into the suitcase, and wiped the blood off the ground.

Judging from their skillful movements, which were like slaughtering a pig, it was obvious that they were ordered by "Sister Xiangzhu" to deal with the funeral.

Tiedan's eyes rolled, and he made a gesture to control the money, secretly throwing the handful of gold in his palm out, which went around the outside of the house and fell to the ground with a jingling sound.

The two old women immediately became alert, stopped what they were doing, looked at each other, one moved towards the door, and the other looked out the window.

Tiedan pinched his fingers again, and the sound of the coins clinking and rolling out was clearly heard by everyone.

"who!"

The two old women immediately opened the door, jumped out of the window and rushed out of the house.

Tiedan also seized the opportunity, swam out from under the bed on all fours, crouched down and crawled into the trunk where the body was hidden, curled up with Xiaohe's severed fingers and flesh, and closed the lid of the trunk tightly.

After a while, the two old women came back. Of course, they didn't catch anyone, but they knew that their whereabouts had probably been seen by someone, so they couldn't delay any longer.

So the two of them sealed the suitcase with talismans, lifted it up with all their strength, and left Xiaohe's boudoir in silence.

Tiedan covered his mouth, held his breath, and tried not to make any sound. He only heard the hurried footsteps of the two old women.

Judging from the conversation just now, if my guess is correct, 'Xiao He' was a favored maid in the family, and 'Sister Xiang Zhu' also beat the person to death secretly. She probably would not bury her in the outer courtyard in front of the servants to use as fertilizer for the flowers. She should have taken her out of the city and buried her in a mass grave. Then they would say that she secretly set the fire, took the family property and eloped with someone, but there would be no evidence to prove it.

But before they had taken two steps, and seemed to have not yet left the inner courtyard of the Shi family, the two maids suddenly stopped and put down the suitcases.

Tiedan narrowed his eyes and secretly gathered his sword strength.

Then there was a loud bang, and someone kicked the suitcase, followed by a shrill voice.

"What's in the box?"

"To answer your question, they are some household items for women..."

"Open."

"This……"

"Zhi!"

A sword stabbed through Tiedan's thigh, and blood immediately appeared.

Tiedan narrowed his eyes and immediately pressed acupuncture points to stop the bleeding without saying a word.

The eunuch outside drew his sword, looked at the blood on it, and sneered,

"Oh, it's a woman's thing, right? Open it!"

"Wait a minute, Cheng Dangtou, is there any misunderstanding?"

At this time, the voice of "Sister Xiangzhu" came from outside.

"Stop talking nonsense! Why are you pretending to be so secretive? Open it!"

Although Cheng Dangtou was shouting fiercely, Xiang Zhujie was not afraid of him. She spoke slowly and sinisterly,

"You don't have to do this, sir. There's only a servant who was beaten to death in this box. It's not worth mentioning. But the boss has been a guest in the mansion for three months. Isn't it clear whether my family is harboring a criminal? It's not good to keep nagging like this."

"Haha, Shi Xiangzhu, you don't have to act so pretentious here. Liangzhou Prefecture is the territory of your Shi family! My men clearly saw the criminal enter the city, but now he's missing. You must be hiding!"

Sister Xiangzhu suddenly realized,
"Oh, I see. So it was my father-in-law who sent people to sneak in and burn down my library last night. He wanted to take advantage of the chaos to search for the criminal. I must report this to the head of the family immediately."

"What nonsense are you talking about! You are just a slave! How dare you use the captain to threaten our family!"

"Haha, what are you thinking, eunuch? In fact, someone is trying to tamper with the emperor. I have sent a pigeon to inform the head of the family and the elders who are offering sacrifices, and to urgently summon the troops outside the pass back to the city.

Now that we know it's a misunderstanding and that it was the eunuch who did it, we must immediately notify them and lead the troops back to the camp, lest the masters come back and find out that someone wanted to search the inner house of my female relatives, and some misunderstandings arise, which would be a mess, what do you think? "

"You! ... Humph, good, good! Shi Jia has made great contributions and served the country loyally! We will definitely remember this and let the factory owner know! Let's go!"

"No delivery."

The 'Sister Xiangzhu' and 'Cheng Dangtou' outside were arguing with each other for a long time, and finally they passed this level.

Tiedan felt the suitcase being lifted up again and started to walk out of the city, but he did not relax at all. Instead, he became more nervous, and cold sweat oozed from his forehead. The eunuch stabbed his thigh with a sword. Now one of his legs could not exert force. I am afraid that not only his blood vessels were injured, but also the tendons in his leg were injured.

Although he was being pressed on the acupoints, blood was still oozing out. His thighs were warm and wet, and half of his pants were soaked in blood. After being tortured all day and all night, and losing so much blood, his head was dizzy and he was really exhausted.

Fortunately, Tiedan had also seen first aid for wounded soldiers, so he felt around and tore off some silk cloth from Xiaohe's body parts and wrapped the wound tightly, then he found some gold hairpins and beads and tied up his thigh tightly, occasionally stabbing his palm with the hairpin, gritted his teeth and tried to hold on so as not to lose too much blood and faint.

The young man covered in blood and the girl with broken limbs were squeezed and bumped in a small box. Xiaohe's head rolled to Tiedan's chest. She opened her eyes, and her white brains flowed down her forehead. She stared at Tiedan's pupils, as if she was laughing at him, happy that she had a companion to go to the underworld with her.

I won't die with you.

Tiedan stared into her eyes and bit his lip.

The Wolf Head told me to survive, and I must survive.

Then, in this dreamlike state of being half asleep and half awake, Tiedan seemed to see a red light coming out of Xiaohe's eyes...

No, it wasn't emitted by her, it was the reflection on her pupils...

Tiedan lowered his head and found that the blood jade around his waist, the one with the beautiful woman's head carved on it, was soaked in his own blood and was emitting a bloody light and shadow.

After getting the blood jade, Tiedan never figured out how to use it. He didn't know what kind of magic weapon it was, so he didn't dare to activate it rashly. So he kept it with him. He wanted to ask Chen Huzi about it, but he was ambushed by the crazy woman and both of them were injured. He forgot about it.

Now the blood jade was clearly activated again, and a layer of blood light was reflected on Xiao He's horrific face that was split, cut, and stained with blood. It was like the ripples reflected on the lake, creating countless mysterious pictures.

At first, countless beautiful illusions appeared, like the faces of countless extremely beautiful women, and then countless secret words and spells were projected, densely printed on Xiaohe's face. In the end, a series of pictures connected by dots and lines were projected, and a red star flashed left and right, wandering on the picture.

Tiedan took two glances and recognized it.

The secret diagram of the circulation of qi in the meridians of Taoism.

This diagram records the eight extraordinary meridians and acupoints throughout the human body. It is the basis for practicing Qigong, and Tiedan naturally had memorized it long ago.

Is there a method of refining Qi recorded in this blood jade?

I remember this thing fell from the body of a dead fellow disciple. It was probably the secret manual of cultivation passed down in that boy's family.

Tiedan felt dizzy at the moment, and fearing that he might pass out by accident, he forced himself to stay awake and stared at the Qi-refining method for a while, trying to concentrate, and then suddenly found out...

Doesn't it seem right?
This meridian map actually has a few more extraordinary meridians than what my master taught me, and the Qi circulation routes are also wrong. Some of the Qi circulation routes even pass through the "dead points" that my senior brother said must never be touched.

So that's how it is. Could it be that when my fellow disciple went astray, he was practicing the "Qi Refining and Sword Forging Technique" while using this unconventional method to cultivate his skills...

Then Tiedan suddenly felt his cold thighs suddenly become hot, which was completely opposite to the previous Qi refining. It was as if a living snake was moving against the meridians of the Qi refining sword!

Tiedan was stunned, and then shocked!

Damn it! I was in a daze and accidentally practiced according to the formula of Xing Qi subconsciously, and I succeeded in it immediately!
Tiedan’s drowsy mind suddenly became clear and his whole body tensed up!

It is a big taboo to practice other sects' skills without guidance! It is easy to go astray!
What's more, his Sword Sect's "Qi Refining and Sword Forging Technique" is the most dangerous martial art in the Xuanmen sect!

And this "Blood Jade Skill" is even more bizarre! Not only is the way of Qi movement completely opposite! But it also uses more Qi meridians and dead points! It is a completely suicidal practice!

But Tiedan couldn’t stop either!
Just like what he said to Senior Brother Yue, he really couldn't do half of the Qi refining, because his spiritual roots and bones were too good! The true Qi moved too fast in his body, and it turned into sword Qi in an instant, and it couldn't be stopped at all!

And this Blood Jade Skill was even faster! In the blink of an eye, Tiedan felt his whole body warm up! The Qi in his body was flowing backwards! The internal force was surging! It was as if the blood in his body was boiling! It seemed as if his whole body was boiling and about to burn!
Go! Fire! Enter! Devil!
His meridians and lungs were burning with fire, but Tiedan's heart was cold, because he knew that he was in imminent danger!

If he is not careful, or makes a mistake at any moment, he will suffer the same fate as his fellow brothers, with the sword energy breaking through his body and causing him to bleed to death!

Things have come to this, Tiedan has no choice!
There is no way to stop! The only way is to go on till the end!
Yes! Although this "Blood Jade Miraculous Skill" runs in the opposite direction of the meridians, it is still a method of refining Qi in the final analysis!
And although this skill is extremely domineering, the sword energy is as powerful as this one!

Only if you can practice this skill accurately and forcefully! And inject the reversed Dao Qi into your inner scene, will you have a chance of survival!
'Xiao He', with a flushed face, lay in the blood-red light with a half-smile on his face. In his gray eyes, the figure of a young man was reflected, covered in blood, looking like a demon.

A red line was traveling against his meridians, mysteriously overlapping with the illusion of the blood jade meridian map, and finally converging at his forehead.

"Oh!"

The suitcase was thrown into the mass grave. The two maids didn't even look at it, and turned away.

Anyway, just leave it here. In three to five days, there will naturally be tomb robbers, or some jackals, monsters or ghosts who will come to open the box and eat the corpse and clean up for the Shi family. By then, naturally no one will be able to find the whereabouts of "Xiao He".

And they naturally did not notice that from the gap in the suitcase, there was a faint red light flickering, as if some demon was about to hatch and revive.
