Chapter 2 The Sword Unsheathed
Ningbo Prefecture City.
Gong Qingli, the head of the Tianji Pavilion branch, was carefully observing Bai Shier in front of him.
Originally, he felt deeply afraid and felt that Bai Shier might be dissatisfied with the recent storm, so he came to kill people. After seeing Bai Shier's face as lazy and without murderous intent, the fear and worry in his heart couldn't help but dissipate a lot, and the curiosity that had been suppressed by fear and worry in his heart quietly emerged.
The Sword of Eternity has disappeared in the world for a long time. He may be the first lucky person in the world to see the new descendant of the Sword of Eternity.
Thinking of the various news that were difficult to distinguish between true and false, Gong Qingli felt inexplicably proud.
"Master Gong Ge, I guess I have guessed what I want, right?"
As the host, Gong Qingli stood, but as a guest, Bai Shier sat in a dissatisfied manner. No matter how he looked, he was a villain. After he spoke, his unruly attitude directly confirmed his identity as a villain.
"I am stupid, please give me some advice."
However, Gong Qingli, as the master, seemed to not care about this at all, and hurriedly bowed and said very respectfully.
"The news about the Sword of Eternal Life is rumored outside, and it seems that it has spread throughout the world. Isn't there any 'profit' of Tianji Pavilion?"
Bai Shier straightened up, leaned forward slightly, and said with a smile on his face. When he said the word "credit", the smile on his face became a bit mocking.
"Your Excellency, this matter has nothing to do with my Tianji Pavilion."
Gong Qingli, who had already vaguely guessed that Bai Shier came to trouble him for the rumors outside, said with fear and fear.
"Is it really not even a little bit of it?"
Bai Shier reached out to pick up the long sword placed on the table, playing with the rag wrapped around the hilt of the sword, his voice full of distrust for Gong Qingli's promise.
"this..."
Gong Qingli was a little stuck. The rumors outside were indeed not deliberately spread by him and Tianji Pavilion, but many of the information about the Sword of Eternal Life was indeed traded from Tianji Pavilion.
"Call ~!"
A cold light flashed through his eyes, and a voice sounded almost at the same time in Gong Qingli's ears, causing his hair to stand up involuntarily in an instant.
"Your Excellency, this is the way to survive in my Tianji Pavilion, and these things are all events for more than 30 years. If you are dissatisfied with my Tianji Pavilion, then I'm sorry. Even if you kill me today, Tianji Pavilion will still do this."
Gong Qingli's heart was raised again, but it was related to the foundation of Tianji Pavilion. No matter how scared he was, he still didn't dare to admit defeat to Bai Shier just because he was afraid of being harvested.
"Have I said I'll take your life?"
Bai Shier didn't care about Gong Qingli's rare "hard" answer.
"Your life is not worth the sword to be unsheathed."
"Then you..."
Gong Qingli was not angry at all because of Bai Shier's disdain for him, but couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Then I couldn't help but feel curious and wanted to ask why Bai Shier wanted to draw his sword.
However, before he could finish speaking, he saw Bai Shier pulling out his long sword, slapped the table with his left hand, and his body sitting on the chair immediately flew out like an arrow placed on the long bow.
Gong Qingli couldn't help but be shocked and didn't understand why the other party was trying to deceive him.
But the next moment, he knew that he had guessed wrong.
"Puff."
A muffled sound came to Gong Qingli's ears. He had not heard this sound for many years, but when he heard it again, he still immediately remembered the origin of this sound.
The sound made by the sword when it pierces into the body.
Usually, this sound is always accompanied by muffled groans or screams, and is even covered by roars or screams in advance. But this time, what sounded in Gong Qingli's ears was a very strange and weak "hoho" sound, and there was also a sound of air leakage when the bellows were blowing through the wind.
Accompanied by this sound, there was also the sound of water flowing out of a mountain stream, but the sound only appeared for a moment and disappeared, as if it was an illusion.
Gong Qingli, who had just stood there in a daze because of Bai Shier's actions, quickly followed the figure that Bai Shier had just passed by. What caught his eye was a scene that shocked him and was deeply frightened.
Bai Shier's sword was held in his hand, and the tip of the sword was hanging on the ground. The bright red marks less than three inches long were gathered at the bottom of the sword, which slowly but regularly fell to the ground and splashed on the floor less than one inch.
Opposite Bai Shier was a young man with wide eyes, but his eyes were gradually disappearing, and there was still a terrified young man. He was wearing a black night-walking dress that blended with the night color.
His hand was choking his neck tightly, and blood was flowing out of the gap between his fingers, as if it would never stop.
The "hoho" sound from Gong Qingli's ears was also from his mouth, and the sound mixed with it seemed like a bellows leaking air was from his neck covered by his hands.
"Plop."
Gong Qingli, who had just turned around, had not yet had the opportunity to dispel the previous horror left on her face, and the young man who had tied his neck with his hands fell to the ground, and the "hoho" sound in his mouth finally stopped.
"Master Gong Pavilion, you, the branch owner of Tianji Pavilion, seems to be a little unsuccessful."
Bai Shier turned around, looked at Gong Qingli, picked up something similar to a token with the tip of his sword and threw it at Gong Qingli, with three-point mockery on his face, three-point dissatisfied, and spoke.
After subconsciously taking the token that Bai Shier had picked up at him, Gong Qingli came back from the shock just now. After hearing Bai Shier's mocking words with dissatisfaction, he quickly looked at the token in his hand.
The familiar shape and the familiar touch that touched Gong Qingli's face changed suddenly. She didn't care that Bai Shier was still standing next to the corpse with a sword in her hand, walked over quickly, squatted down and pulled off the black face towel from the corpse's face.
There are many people in the branch pavilion of Ningbo Prefecture. Gong Qingli may not be familiar with everyone, but she can still recognize whether the other party is his subordinate.
And the answer was obvious from his trembling body after seeing the corpse's face.
"I didn't arrange for him to come."
"I know this naturally,"
Bai Shier glanced at Gong Qingli and said in a plain tone.
"Otherwise you will be here like him at this time."
"You can actually save his life."
"But he himself won't."
Gong Qingli looked at Bai Shier with some confusion, not understanding.
