Chapter 188 – Battle of Two, Battle of Two Kingdoms (VII)
Dilapidated house, bright moonlight, gloomy alleyway.
The martial arts master with a sword, the sad and skinny boy, the cardamom girl holding a whip, the sickly man gasping for breath, and the stunning woman carrying a purple box.
In the eyes of all the sneaky nightwalkers lying on the roof, this picture under their noses made them, who came in the middle of the night to drink the northwest wind, feel less boring. The nightwalkers were divided into several groups, each with their own benefactors, of which the largest number, and with a sandy atmosphere, were the sharp warriors from Liu Huaixi’s mansion, who also rightfully occupied the two neighboring rooftops with the widest view. The weapons hanging on the waist are all swords, but the types can be said to be various, both the blade body is long and slender look like the seedling of the Miao knife, but also from the North Mang South Dynasty into the western region of the sword, and even a leader looks like a man in black with a some years of the old style of the Liang knife, only familiar with the Beiliang border army insiders, can be found that it is a curved compared to the foot sword is more prominent cavalry saber. Along with the Northern Liang on the knife and crossbow control more and more strict, these early years scattered folk Liang knife, its value has also risen, can easily sell seven or eight hundred taels of silver the sky price. In the river and lake in Liyang, there is a cool knife hanging in the waist, as long as it is not the kind of a glance through the depths of the anointed children, can let a person involuntarily fear.
A guy close to the side of the black man wearing a cool knife, whispered: “Qi boss, the bottom of the back of the purple box of the woman can be really handsome ah, than to come to our mansion as a guest of the Purple Bamboo Immortal is even better looking, or we will just do it directly to have to do it? The whole Snow Lotus City is ours, as long as we enter the city, our lives are in our hands. Boss Qi, didn’t the general say you need a daughter-in-law? I think this girl is good. Brothers just discussed, the snow lotus sent to the general’s residence, this woman directly tied to the head of your mansion, today we will give you wedding wine and a bridal chamber, it’s not worth it we were freezing all night!”
The man in black who was encouraged by his men to become a mountain king subconsciously stroked the sheath of his sword, reason overcame desire and shook his head, “Don’t jeopardize my righteous father’s big event.”
He is precisely the Snow Lotus City earth emperor Liu HuaiXi’s direct heart, once followed Liu HuaiXi closely in the hundred thousand mountains several times in and out, which was given this Liu HuaiXi love cool knife, he this trip is to keep an eye on the sword with the Chinese, Liu HuaiXi to the snow lotus is a must have, because publicly threatened to be on the supply of the Western Sichuan a certain name the same word of the woman, is said to be an extremely touching beauty, only a pity that she is a even Liu HuaiXi The existence of even Liu HuaiXi can not afford to mess with, the house of the lotus picker to obtain the snow lotus is another hidden use, he is a young man from the beginning to follow the Liu HuaiXi borer son of one of the qualifications of access to some of the insides, it is said that now away from the sun there are ten new sects, the south of the Dragon Palace in the list of them, the new Palace master Lin HongZhou not only but also the south of the jianghu of the bulls-eye, but also with the YanZhi WangShiShiYiZi ZhaoChu relationship is very shallow. What exactly his righteous father was scheming, he was not sure, but it definitely would not be limited to Snow Lotus City, and his righteous father had more than once privately revealed his yearning for the Central Plains.
“Chief Qi, look, that guy seems to be unaware that he wants to intervene, what should we do?”
That Liu HuaiXi’s adopted lacewing son frowned and squeezed out a word from between his teeth, “Wait.”
That consumptive who didn’t know where to run out to stir up trouble, shouted the teenage girl aside, muttering like a crappy bookkeeper. Sure enough, the young man was full of suspicion, that the world is not ordinary girl is not moved, young girl’s eyes wide and narrow high and low is one thing, but by the time of the great change, this point of vigilance is still certainly there. Out of nowhere a finger can gently push down the stranger, but out of thin air to them to draw a big cake, who believe? When the borer on the roof and sneak a look at the stunning woman, especially to see her line of sight to the young man who looks like a reader, has always thought of himself as hard-hearted, he suddenly a surge of blood, and then dashing leap down, more than a dozen years of life brothers are not willing to lag behind, have to fall to the ground, in addition to the three archers tacit agreement to stay on the roof, all for the immediate can be a moment of springtime to help the head of the battle, everyone! There were frivolous smiles on their faces, almost shouting out a sister-in-law towards the woman. Xu Fengyen was talking about dry mouth, told the teenager that he only need the snow lotus, can guarantee that the girl will not marry. The young man was actually a little moved, but the girl from a large family outside of Snow Lotus City, mercilessly exposed the “lies”. Xu Fengyen said he could protect them from Snow Lotus City, she said you first fight with the Central Plains swordsman on the steps, win and then talk about other things. Xu Fengnian said yes, she said that the city’s General Liu surrounded by experts, her father’s Ma family castle also has a hundred cavalry and two hundred archers, you not only want to win the swordsman, but also to go to the general’s residence and Ma family castle to fight two more. Xu Fengyen intended that he was afraid of agreeing too quickly and letting the two children mistake him for insincerity, so he casually asked how powerful Liu Huaixi was, but the young girl threw a blank look and said that he was actually a jianghu crook trying to make a no-budget deal, and that he just wanted to trick the Snow Lotus and then hurry up and run away. Xu Fengyen’s physical strength, squatting down, raised his head to speak, but also by the girl despised a mess, “understanding” to let Xu Fengyen lie down to speak well, legs do not sore waist does not hurt, more energy. Xu Fengnian smiled and said that the real masters in the jianghu, where is flying around pretending to be a grandpa, all like him to show the enemy to be weak pretending to be a grandson. The young girl’s mouth was unforgiving, saying that Xu Fengyen was not pretending to be a grandson but a real grandson. The teenager who has been watching the show from the side wanted to laugh but held back his laughter and secretly made a gloating face at Xu Fenian. Xu Fengyen laughed and scolded the young man, which has not yet passed the door, is that she is the main internal and external, in the future, you are not afraid of the husband’s program is not vibrant? The simple but not really stupid teenager hemmed and hawed, the girl was furious, gripping the whip and pointing at this more and more talk more and more unlike the guy, full of frost, want him to hurry up and get out. As a result, Xu Fengyen then said something to let her completely calm down, “How, the scourge of Hong Shuji in deep danger, conscience is uneasy, thinking that the least you can do is to let me and that beautiful sister, so two outsiders, do not interfere in it? You this girl heart is not also too soft some ……”
The gang of Liu HuaiXi raised eagle dog is about to fight, waist wear cool knife of the person raised his hand to stop their stupidity, softly said: “Some wrong.”
Immediately after the house came from the rampant laughter, “you bunch of meet the real Buddha do not know Buddha melon child, blindly yell a hammer!”
A figure like a wild horse running trough crashed through the papier-mâché walls of the mud house and swept out, first leaping over the head of the motionless swordsman, then passing between Xu Fengyen and Jiang Nai, and finally crashing into the queue of Liu Huaixi’s sharp soldiers. The long time kill Liu House borer bellowed angrily, drew his sword and then held it with both hands, using his body to urge the sword, charging forward at a fast pace, not walking in a straight line, the pace was unusually complicated and light, a mixture of Western Shu Xingyi and Southern Tang Tongjia’s old rack road, the hand movement was very clean, a big chop, a sword toward the figure swiftly and fiercely when the head slashed down.
From the house out of the shape of a flash, blink of an eye and the borer brushed past, not only a foot in the latter’s chest, but also empty-handed to take away the sword, the former charge is still unabated, straight to the mottled alley wall, the knife into the wall, the body flipped, and so on the young man known as the head of the Qi stopped staggering backward form turned his head and looked, and saw an old man with two calves to the knee below seem to have been cut off by the sharp weapon, just sitting on the handle of the old man, and then the old man was in a very good position. The old man, sitting on his beloved sword, looked around and said loudly, “Yo, the young man is a little bit of catty, but unfortunately, against the old man, and then give you twenty years of work, still not enough to see ah!”
The domineering old man glanced at the middle-aged swordsman who didn’t stop himself from going out of the house, and said angrily: “The old man has come back to the world this time, and waited for so many days in this shabby little town, except for the elm lump on the steps that has an empty killing sword but not a killing heart, but there is no one who is interested in taking the initiative to come to burn incense to honor the gods? Doesn’t it mean that I have to go on a killing spree to make you bunch of clumsy frogs understand that there’s a land god in Snow Lotus City?”
The Snow Lotus City’s head snake surnamed Qi twisted his head and spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes were gloomy and cold, shaking his wrist, he asked with a smile, “Does the old fairy really want to be an enemy of the general’s residence?”
The old man laughed: “What the hell is the general’s residence, a bunch of open-eyed blindness, really pissed off the old man, in a matter of moments, I want you to leave no one behind!”
Xu Fengyen laughed at Jiang Nai who quietly took a few steps closer to him and said, “Learn from it, look at how other old-timers walk in the jianghu, how stylish. I tell you, we playboy this line it, do not understand the evil smile, that is definitely a playboy jianghu fledgling bird, similarly, the evil masters in the jianghu, this kind of Jiejie laughter that is only the entry level skills, the righteous characters well, that must be immortal style of the bones, after a move, to stand on his hands, at night, especially moonlit nights, the most set off the scene, you want to think about ah, put out the tilted head to look at the moon posture, both the masters of the temperament and does not hurt the eyes, but the sun during the day is not very good, and the sun is not very good. On the contrary, the daytime sun is not very good, harsh. But there is a way, that is fine squinting eyes, to be silent, do not speak, harsh words big words are not allowed, a speak out on the status of degradation, you do not say anything, but let the bystanders, such as this large group of us, feel inscrutable.”
Jiang Nai didn’t have the heart to say, “Are you bored!”
Xu Fengyen glared, “This is the golden advice I summarized after personally venturing into the jungle, if others want to hear it, I won’t sell it for a thousand gold!”
The young lady from the Ma Family Castle, who was listening to Xu Fenian’s “teaching” with her ears perked up, quickly said, “He really is an experienced swindler!”
The young man listened with great interest, thinking that this is really reasonable, those rich kids in Snow Lotus City, every time they flirt with a girl on the street, isn’t it the kind of evil smile that they like? And every time you open the folding fan is crisp snap on the open, snap on the dragon again, how he can not learn that smile, of course, also can not afford to buy that fan. So the teenager filled with curiosity softly asked, “Is there more?”
Xu Fengyin smugly grunted: “There is ah, here head learning deep like the sea, boy I ask you, your snow lotus city has no nickname is the beginning of the word purple female warrior, either like to wear purple clothes, either like to use purple jewelry, surely there, right?”
The young man was startled, his eyes full of admiration, nodding vigorously, “Gongzi, you’re divine! There are three or four divine sisters like this in this year alone!”
The young girl skimmed her lips and said, “What’s so great about guessing this kind of thing, our Snow Lotus City is still full of the kind of foreign young warriors who wear white robes with two swords hanging from their waists, everyone claims to be someone’s retreat disciple, either they like to get drunk and lie down on the street to look at the moon, or they pick a not so high wall to climb up to and sit there and pretend to be dazed, or they just like to run downstairs in the Snow Lotus Building to Or they like to go downstairs to the Snow Lotus Building to show off their poems. My father said that they do have some skills, but compared to the top masters of Snow Lotus City, they are far from it, and also said that this group of young warriors were either kicked by donkeys when they were young, or their heads were pinched by the door boards when they grew up, and told me to go around them as long as I see them.”
Xu Fengyen said: “Little girl, you don’t understand, these young warriors with high aspirations, are young and promising ah, he will become a great warrior!”
The young girl did not pay attention to this guy, cut a vicious glance at the teenager Hong Shuji, “Fairy sister?”
The teenager shrunk his neck, and was struck by an idea, and began to tilt his head and look at the moon.
In that old man said a word, the field of the situation of the swords and crossbows turned sharply, “I heard your master Liu Huaixi some deeds, clearly is ambitious characters, you message to that what the general’s residence, said as long as his surname Liu’s willing to hands offering ten famous sword, gold thousand taels and a mansion covering an area of one hundred acres of handmaidens one hundred people, the old man will reluctantly do his chief guest, even if in the future against the world, the world’s first time to the world of the world of the world of the people of the people of the people of the world of the people of the world of the people. Even if he faces the top ten experts in the world in the future, he will have the strength to fight with them.”
The young man surnamed Qi who still had blood on the corner of his mouth had an uncertain face, and finally smiled, cupped his fists and said, “As long as senior can take down that obtrusive swordsman, so that the late generation can take the snow lotus to deliver, and I will try my best to introduce senior to my righteous father.”
The teenager panicked and cried out, “Old man, didn’t you say you would take me on as a disciple? Saying that you will teach me the supreme martial arts to easily become the number one person in the world after you come down from the mountain?”
The old man laughed, “Silly boy, with your crude roots, if the old man just gave you dozens of superior secret books, you wouldn’t be able to practice as a master. If the old man hadn’t said that in the first place, would you have helped me break the formation in the cave?”
The old man suddenly looked at the sickly young man, “Your kid’s qualifications are sloppy, do you want to join my disciple? The old man is destined to make a name for himself in the world this time when he rises again from the east, as long as you agree, the old man will let you be a chicken and a dog.”
The old man’s words turned, looked to the back of the purple box of young women, can be said to be stunning to the extreme, even when they wantonly jianghu, also did not see this kind of moving woman, if can be used as a pot, may not be unable to return to the peak of the martial arts. The old man did not hide his greedy eyes, smack smack mouth, hehehe laughs: “But then, you side of the girl, have to belong to the old man, such as the first-class tripod, the sky to not take the blame ah. As for you, young man, what is a pussy, as long as there is a first class martial arts in the world ……”
Xu Fengnian smiled and said, “Come on come on, would have liked to chat with you for a few sentences, would like to hear how the jianghu where the old man in sheepskin fur was back then, you, after all, at least it is the jianghu seniors who fought with Dong Yuarui of the East Vietnam Sword Pool, even though he failed miserably to the point of giving two legs to the man with the ‘six dragons’ to cut off, but It’s not easy to live to this age. But since you can’t think for yourself, there’s nothing you can do about it. You, you have to thank me, if it wasn’t for me, you’d already be a corpse at this moment.”
Jiang Nai snorted coldly.
Xu Fengnian didn’t have a smile anymore, “Speaking of, if I’m not wrong, you’re that infamous Tripod Caster, right? You’re good at using women as cauldrons to harvest yin and replenish yang to grow your own cultivation, even the devilish sect, Mount Deer, is happy not to take in the underhanded goods.”
Dong Yuanrui, Six Dragons, Tripod Caster, Mount Deer.
The heart of the old man who had managed to break free from his cage in that snowy peaked cave shook tremendously.
Xu Fengnian probably got tired of talking and squatted down again to gently catch his breath. Except for Jiang Nai, all of them were soon dumbfounded, even the Central Plains swordsman was shocked, because the sword on his lap was unsheathed and swept out of its sheath no matter how much he tried to suppress it.
The “flying sword” slowly came to Xu Fengnian’s shoulder, slightly trembling, like a little bird, like an old horse meeting its master.
The old man was scared to death, he was far away from the jianghu for many years, but his eyesight was still there, “The sword mastery of the Wu Family Sword Graveyard!”
The old man hurriedly shouted at the top of his voice, “This gentleman, let’s talk properly, don’t make a move! It’s not easy for you and I to have the cultivation we have today. ……”
The flying sword is like running thunder, stabbing straight away.
The old man did not care to maintain that cross-legged sitting sword master posture, the figure quickly pulled up a few feet, can avoid that nailed into the wall of the flying sword.
The tip of the flying sword swirled and retreated, hooking out some yellow soil on the wall.
After pulling away, it stabbed once again.
The old man who had been pretending to be a great master since he left the house knocked his elbow on the wall and wanted to escape over the wall, but the flying sword suddenly accelerated and with a diagonal pick, it appeared above his head, so the old man had to sink his qi into his dantian and make a jackhammer fall.
The flying sword as a playful general, every time intentionally or unintentionally only a line so that the old man can just thrillingly avoid the tip of the sword, to avoid a sword through the body of the miserable end, but also absolutely unable to leave the wall.
In the snowy mountain held for decades of old sex embryo want to die heart have, constantly yelling some present in the snow lotus city people do not understand the strange words, “not that harness gas flying sword, is more superior flying sword art!” “You kid in the end is the Wu family sword mound what people, why is clearly not you personally raised other people’s sword, but can for you with divine intent traction?!” “Could you be that contemporary Wu Family Sword Crown, and that woman is your Sword Servant?” “The old man knows the mistake, you kid …… no, the great master you just do good, the sword under the people it!”
What makes the old man even more desperate is that guy still has the leisure to raise his arm, pulling away the knife, gently holding it in his hand.
Half an incense stick later, exhausted qi exhaustion of the old man after being pierced more than twenty swords, was a sword through the mouth hanging on the wall, the sword flat blade into the wall, so that there is like hanging corpse cruel effect.
Xu Fengyen stood up, when he looked towards the Liu Huaixi borer righteous son, the latter such as being hit, back blasted on the wall, died on the spot, the wall collapsed, both bodies disappeared in the crowd’s field of vision, the eye does not see, the heart does not palpitate. Xu Fengyen after collecting the knife and holding the knife sheath flying back to the hand, the cool knife into the sheath, and then tied hanging on his waist, ignoring the alley and roof Liu Fu within the several sets of night people are fast scared of pissing, to the teenage girl made a face, smiled and said: “How, this time should always believe it? A real master like me, no need to stand, squatting is very dashing. If you stand, it’s called a jade tree, you don’t even dare to look in the mirror for fear of scaring yourself, under the sky there can still be a handsome supreme expert like me?”
Jiang Nai blankly said, “Virtuous!”
The teenager protected in front of the young girl, the young girl hid behind the teenager, her teeth chattered and whispered, “Awesome is awesome, but the head must have been clamped by the door board as well.”
The stubborn teen tugged at the teen’s sleeve, “Right, twig?”
The teenager muttered in a small voice, “Right.”
But quickly pretended to be a fool and mended two words, “Right?”
Xu Fengyen’s mind moved, the longsword that he borrowed for a moment flew back to the swordsman’s sheath, smiling, “Thanks.”
That Central Plains man who had thought that he was already considered a top expert in the tiny Snow Lotus City in the Western Region, stood up and said in a deep voice, “It is the junior who thanks the senior for the grace of teaching the sword.”
Xu Fengnian laughed it off, then his entire aura changed radically, no longer showing signs of his earlier disheveled state, turning his head to Jiang Nai, he said, “In fact, I have not recovered slowly, even faster than Topaz Bodhisattva, I could walk on my own as early as two days ago. Now that he and Li Mi Pil have entered the city, you have already saved me once, and this time I have a chance to win, not to lose for sure, so leave me alone. First take these two children and leave Snow Lotus City, settle them down, then you can return to Western Chu.”
Xu Fenian paused for a moment, blinked his eyes, and playfully said, “There may be a day when I will also go to you. By then, you’ll know how powerful I am, and know if I’m the new Martial Emperor.”
Xu Fengyen walked towards the alleyway alone, his right hand pressed on the hilt of the cool sword, his back facing Jiang Nai, “Back then, when Cao Changqing took you away, it was me who couldn’t stop you. As long as I don’t die this time, then it’s no one who can stop me.”
Just at this time, the teenage girl saw that fellow suddenly stagger and almost fall to the ground.
The teenage girl, who was still somewhat inexplicably moved, couldn’t help but laugh out loud, “It’s still more handsome to squat.”
The teenager nodded with a hmmmm.
That Central Plains hanyou who had already regarded that resident Kendo senior as a divine figure, also somewhat couldn’t bear to look at it.
Just as he was filled with compassion, the swordsman was creeped out.
Just now, it seemed like he heard the names Topaz Bodhisattva and Cao Changqing?
This senior not only with Cao Changqing is on the situation, but at this time the opponent is that the world’s second Tuoba Bodhisattva? Even worthy of Tuoba Bodhisattva and people to join forces to chase to Snow Lotus City?
Is this senior a land sword immortal who has never shown his face in the jianghu?
Just the next moment, he didn’t feel like it.
In the distance.
The stiff-faced Jiang Nai came behind Xu Fengnian with a long swipe, kicked the guy in the face, and said angrily, “You’re still addicted to pretending to be an expert?”
